The fact people aren't aware this is a must buy yet, just goes to show how franchise obsessed the gaming landscape is. Support a NEW unique and ploished IP, people! This is what we want! Needless to say, I've been looking forward to this since Project Refantasy was announced! I'm super excited to play the game day 1!

I put 7 hours into the demo and I wasn’t disappointed. I can’t wait for Friday to keep playing

I had heard about this game but wasn't planning on buying it but I saw the demo and downloaded it on a whim. And holy crap the game blew me away! The level of ambition and quality on display is stunning! After finishing the demo I immediately pre-ordered the collector's edition! Every single aspect of this game is of the highest quality! I really feel like this game is going to be considered an all-time great! It feels like it has elevated JRPG's to the next level! And I think the fantasy world within a fantasy world conceit really works! I can't stop thinking about this game and the 11th can't get here soon enough!

Played the demo, and COMFORTABLY pre-ordered it.

Probably the most generous demo I have ever played. I logged about 4 hrs into it and it was worth every minute. I pre ordered it and cant wait to continue where I left off. I would describe this as Persona with a Lunar Silver Story style of animation and art. It's more JRPG than Visual Novel. Exactly what I have been waiting for.

It’s not everyday NoisyPixel are brave enough to give a game a 10. This game might be game of the life atp

[AM-ukjv]

You had me at being able to complete everything in one play through with some planning.

[snozrick]

Watched and pre ordered. Thanks for the review !

Man I love having character portraits, these look so good

[alangator]

I’m buying it purely for the main battle theme. Another 60 dollar music album that comes with a free game as a bonus

[Solid--Snake]

god knows the unspeakable things i would do to play this game right now

[Oblinski]

Me anticipating tomorrow: by looping Nord Mines in my head and the battle theme

[crazyfnjoey]

I picked up Persona 5 after being impressed by the Metaphor demo, I am in a real pickle now lol, since I won't be able to finish P5 but also can't wait to play Metaphors full release.

I’m glad you brought up the comparison to Trails through Daybreak because I was almost worried they’d feel too similar. Glad to see this game seems to stand out on its own merits!

[thevi_olin]

Ah yes, the significance of the passage of time. And looking forward to playing this game, thanks for the review!

[gellsfrost]

This is my GOTY I put 10 hours into the demo and I already pre-ordered thing that I haven't done in years but for this game I was willing to make an exception since I really enjoyed the demo and I want more

[Konuvis]

I was concerned it was going to be too similar to Persona with a medieval skin, but it looks like a winner. Im particularly impressed with Meguro's work here, after 20 years of very samey soundtracks.
Can't wait to travel the world in Howl's moving castle 😉

[jogymogy]

Man, I am in the middle of Cold Steel 4. This gem has to wait for now.

[wilhastings]

10 hours into the demo and I am so ready for this
