Trails of awesome
Adventure awaits you, maybe not adventure of your lifetime, but one not easily forgotten. You go through hardships, kill monsters that nobody can take on but you, explore world and do good deeds, mostly of protecting folk, but most importantly you talk, and oh boy if it isn't the best kind of talk, the one you have with your best buddies at your best times. Estelle is your girl for all fun talk needs, but others help too, NPCs aren't NPCs, they are people, they have names, histories, characters and something to say on every subject. Liberl is alive and oh so real.
Battle system is interesting, creative, complex, at times unfair, but always fun.
Cooking is helpful, even if coming by ingredients is problem of sorts. Magic is something of your creation, as it depends on what orbs you craft and which ones you put on.
Sidequests are for the most part not bad, some even good. You get to play detective a lot.
To borrow from Estelle's treasury of sayings:
- We can kill three birds with one stone!
Three birds being: fun, good read and engaging gameplay.

We need the second chapter, pronto!
