Vamers

60-hour JRPG goodness
Classic JRPG with today's standards
Breathtaking visuals
Character growth everywhere you look!
Not a single frame drop, ineligible text, or long loading!

Main campaign is a bit too stereotypical
Combat controls needs tweaking
Incredibly involved character progression without automation options

GameReactor

Top-notch story; brilliant writing; intuitive
clear menu (transparent despite all the information present); new character models; beautiful adventure for dozens
if not hundreds of hours; Japanese voice acting.

Future Connected is nowhere near as good as the core adventure.

Epic story and cutscene animation
Thrilling and thoughtful combat

Too many cutscenes
Many, many mechanics to learn
D-pad is clunky against fast combat

AusGamers

Remastered visuals and audio are big step up from the original
Features an epic story on par with the brilliant sequel
Combat has been given some key quality of life improvements
Killer soundtrack is given a killer remaster
Excellent tutorial with in-game characters teaching you the ins and outs
Next-gen load times

No new voices for the heart-to-heart moments, they?re still all text
Side-quest design is of the school of pretty basic fetch-questery

Great music
I'm really feeling it!
It's Reyn time!
Easy and hard modes to accommodate play styles.

English voice overs are meme-worthy
Those hard to find collectables
Epilogue needs more outfits

Trusted Reviews

A gorgeous visual overhaul of an RPG classic
Characters and narrative are hugely engaging throughout
Battles are dynamic, challenging and unpredictable
The world is positively vast and a joy to explore

Side activities can feel archaic and needless at times
Needs more quality-of-life improvements
The English voice acting might be grating for some

GameSpot

Deep, rewarding combat system accompanied by new difficulty options to customize the experience
A diverse, gorgeous world that still impresses 10 years later
Future Connected is an excellent addendum to the main story that showcases some of Monolith Soft's best designs
A fantastic soundtrack provides the backdrop to exploration and combat

Companion AI can be inconsistent at times, making it difficult to pull off specific combos
The Affinity Chart, while impressive, still feels overly complicated and bloated

GamingBolt

Incredibly imaginative and visually striking world
a captivating story with some incredibly endearing characters
engaging systems and mechanics
great graphical facelift
amazing soundtrack and charming voice acting
smaller improvements across the board contribute to improving the game collectively
Future Connected is a substantial addition

Graphics take a hit in portable mode
