Pros
- nothing is very memorable to me the way ... the music from Undertale ... were for example.
- When a standout game like Undertale drops, we get a wave of Mother-esque titles.
- It reminds me a lot of undertale even though it it's nowhere near as popular and came out before it. With its quirky characters, tragic villain, hidden darker aspects and meta narrative.

At first I felt bored because of the linearity but I reconsidered since it gives you time to focus on the battling aspect which is where the game really shines. ... Also, the music! Oh, the music is absolutely top in this game.
