As far as I can tell difficulty wise not really an issue unless you've never played a game of the series before or any title similar to this like star ocean they both have similar game play elements, depth I have not played this one all the way through yet so I can't accurately judge this but I'm willing to bet it offers some good content even if if lacks something. Story well as far as it goes it seems a little cliche but not really I'm a sucker for games like this so I find it appealing, addictiveness definitely  would and will want to play it again often especially  if I'm in the middle of a session  where I haven't played through it all the way yet as for sound well I suppose it's not half bad considering how the snes was back then when it was one of the top consoles it's pretty good The graphics are a touch less in my oppinion than star ocean in some parts although I like the grass in the plains when your in combat, has some decent detail to it. Overall I wish I could give it a perfect 10 but it just isn't there yet for me
