Pros & Considerations

Systems

Weapon type, enemy affinity, crafting and Risk interact deeply enough to reward deliberate preparation for specific targets.

Battles

Real-time movement, timing and ability use make execution and positioning part of every encounter

Progression

Equipment, skills or party systems provide persistent build choices between encounters

Consider

Learning curve: Core damage formulas and crafting logic are opaque and can make early bosses seem harsher than intended.
