Yeah, I'm in the same boat. The battle system is still a bit messy in how it is implemented (like the way areas of effect always feel a bit random), but it suits me much better than the base system!
Runs like a charm on Steam deck, btw ๐

Been playing some Yakuza Like A Dragon. Good game, but I'm not sure I'll finish before Trails Reverie is out
For me it has to be Grandia. This game feels like a pure dose of adventure, and to me it is a nostalgia pill I sometimes take for the trip. That it doesn't get more recognition in the modern day is beyond me.
To a lesser extent, Secret of Mana is also a game I like to redo every other year with different people, and that I know absolutely by heart (can't wait to experience that with my son someday).
