    • “Cons: the music is overpowering; however, it can be disabled, so that is a very minor issue.”

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “You can only choose up to 8 characters at once, which makes sense to avoid clutter on the screen, but for learning purposes, this becomes tedious - backing out, manually selecting them, and going in again.”
