I tried it and could not get into it. There was no hook other than a confusing alternate start. I didn't play long enough to find out if it was an alternate dimension, previous life, past/future stuff, whatever

I was intrigued initially. But once you start playing, the game completely puts the breaks on. And I only put in a couple hours before deciding I was probably not going to enjoy it. Seems like a game you have to put in a few hours before it really "begins". And at the time, I was really...really not in the mood for that kind of JRPG trope. I still enjoy my JRPGs from time to time, but I'll probably never be in the mood for that trope again. I don't enjoy games enough as it is, I'm not going to slog through for hours not enjoying something, blindly hoping for a payoff that may not even exist. I hoped it was good. But did not have the patience

Had the same experience for Infinite Undiscovery and The Last Remnant
