Didn't play as much today as I hoped, at least so far, so I just got back to sarai after getting the sandflies parts. I thought it was pretty clever how they let you use the sephiroth type villain (I'm guessing) and see how much more badass is than your protagonist, but then show him getting out maneuvered.

This game looks dang nice. Only real complaint so far is the camera puzzles are pretty tedious

I think it does have my favorite sprite aesthetic of that era. Some of the 3d models stick out like a sore thumb next to them though.

The puzzles were sort of annoying, but most of them can be easily explained with a guide. I had forgotten about the camera rotation, too. Still, one of my favorite games ever.

Lol, yeah. The first boss actually wasn't so bad, not as good as the sprites but it wasn't terrible. But the dude that gets summoned in the tavern was a joke.

Yeah it's not too big of an issue. More of an annoyance than anything

Never played 3 I'm sorry to say.

Just finished up another boss, three skull fish. These 3d models are growing on me

See, it's certainly not as stunning as the sprite work but they did put some time and effort into some of these 3d characters:

I really like the 3D models for the dragons.

*spoilers from a town called Chek*

Weirdly, the game kinda justifies them being 3D in a really cool way; all summoned beings have 3D models, including dragons and Yohm's creatures, because they come from a higher dimension. Which is why the dragons' humanoid forms are 2D sprites.

I like how Fou-Lu just walks away when he defeats enemies.

I have too. I think the only 3d model I thought was actually "bad" so far is the guy that soldier summons in the tavern. My favorite so far was the demon thing the general transforms into
