This whole "we made it open world but there's only one place you should be going at a time" is annoying as fuck. Game would had been better if it's a VN.
Even with a JP walkthrough I'm still stuck alot because neither the game nor the JP walkthrough site tells you exactly where you should be going and just leave you hanging most of the time. The game is like "we need to go beat the bad guys and rescue our girl". Sure, but where the fuck is the bad guys though? And then you look up the JP guide and the guide is like "go to Samuel village and fight the bad guys" but where the fuck is Samuel village? Everything in this game is so god damn annoying even Nebel looks good in comparison.
