The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A sprawling, story-driven JRPG that blends fast field battles with tactical turn-based combat amid a vibrant yet politically charged fantasy world.

What players say
Players say this entry is typical for the series with a slow start that picks up around chapter four. The battle system is less favored than Cold Steel's but the characters are more mature and interesting. However, reviews are split on whether the story is great or bad, and there are many joke or non-substantive reviews.
