The game's story is criticized for being dry, uninspired, and lacking urgency, with many reviewers noting that it suffers from poor character development and minimal meaningful interactions.

The mixed-language interface adds to the challenge, leaving many players feeling disconnected from the story's potential.

- “Sometimes you are asked to make a choice (usually in the context of 'how do you respond?' to something another character is talking about), and those choices do affect the ultimate outcome of the story.”

- “Maybe as you gain more party members and dive deeper into the game tactics and strategy and party customization will start to really matter, but the first hour didn't give me a good impression: boring environments, time-consuming random battles with long animations, and story cutscenes I found myself quickly no longer caring about.”
