Although i'm a hardcore Lunar fan, this game does have a few flaws that make not as fun as it could be.

Hey, it's me again, Lunar, reviewing one of the games from one of my favorite RPG series. Even though i love the Lunar series, this one is just missing a few things, here's what Mr. Lunar thought of this game...

Gameplay:

The gameplay is pretty fun however they're are some aspect of it that are kind of annoying. For example, if you choose to run by holding the be button, every 5 seconds or so you'll lose 1 HP, sure it's more realistic but if you don't have much HP then it's really annoying. Once you start to get into the higher HP range then it's not as hard. You can't exactly die from this though because once you have 1/3 of your HP then you just can't run overall until your refill it. Another bad thing is that in the battles, you can choose the do the basic attack option, just you can't choose which enemy to attack. Jian, the main character, also cannot have more than one magic attack equipped at a time, but each of them are pretty much equal in strength so it doesn't really matter. Theyr'e aren't many good things in the gameplay, but the story is pretty good, just kinda short.

Graphics:

They're are some pretty good visuals, the bottom screen is uses for different options, while the top is used to the actions. In battle, the top and bottom screen are use for a really big battlefield. Flying enemies are on the top screen, while land enemies are on the ground, some are really big so often take up some of both screens.

Music and Sound:

Here's where some good stuff comes it. Like most Lunar games, this one has some really nice music and sound effects, and like most, it also has a sound test so you can listen to them whenever you want.

Replay Value:

There's not much replay value in this game, once you've beaten it once, you really don't feel like going through it again.

Overall, if you like Lunar games, i would still recommend this, the story is still pretty decent, and the gameplay isn't all too bad, but it does have it's flaws. At least rent it if you want to play through and beat it but don't want it for replay value. Lunar out.
