worth playing
The only let down I can see is side quest system (maybe it's closer to reality that you have to find the required item on your own but seriously it's getting annoying when you want to finish all the quest) well I guess it's fine with patient people.
The other let down is the new game + seriously =.= there's almost no point in go to new game when you're already "godlike" ; instead, there's should be 2 or more ending (base on relationship with people and each other) if it's 2 only the ending need to change a little, if more then more event need to be added but at least there's should be a bad (it's up to you) and a happy (current) ending and you can only reach happy ending on new game + that would greatly improve the worth of new game + and the need to complete quests to improve relationship with people. And finally a little power up for monster if you don't have place for new one would also help (attack up, def, block up, res, enchant, ...).
Anyway, great game !
