Review scores for this are shockingly high for a new RPG entry from a small team. Seems very Persona/FF-like, which isn’t exactly my kind of game (I tend to find most JRPGs a little stale in the game design department), but I think I will give this one a try. I’d rather support a new effort in any case than play yet another Bethesda remaster. I know they’re different games, but I hope CO will get the attention it seemingly deserves.

It's more of a progression from FFX than something like Persona or the newer FF games. It's still turn based, but its more active. It feels like what Square should have done with the franchise, instead of going the direction they did.

Yeah FF has turned to absolute trash. Used to be my favorite franchise

I would like to say plot wise it has very little to do with jrpgs. Those often feel a little cookie cutter to me while this story is very fresh
