    I'm really surprised that more hasn't been made about just how repetitive this game is. Great graphics can only take a game so far. You essentially have to complete the same game five times. About 15 hours in I hit the wall and it was drop to easiest difficulty and skip all story scenes.

    Playing on higher difficulty levels just means enemies take more hits to kill and the story is

    Playing on higher difficulty levels just means enemies take more hits to kill and the story is childish boring and derivative.

    Excellent artwork with superb presentation and voice acting but who cares when the gameplay makes you not want to play anymore.

    Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir takes a good game and makes it incrementally better. The tweaks to the overall title, including better inventory management and more emphasis on combat, opens it up to those who weren't enamored with the original. The option is there for those who want to play it as it was originally intended. It provides lots of gameplay time, which is something of a rarity in console titles nowadays, though there will be a few who take offense to the fact that a good chunk of content is recycled a few times. It does all this with a presentation that still manages to impress after all these years.

    Slick, smooth, and beautiful, it shines like never before on current-gen. [Aug 2016, p.79]

    The game has withstand the test of time and has managed to keep the balance between fighting and turn-based action just right.
