Ni no kuni - Wrath of the white witch.
This is a fairly old game (2013), but I never play new ones anyway. I've had this one in steam for a few years I think. Thought I'd finally get around to trying it.
I only have a few hours in it and not sure if I see the appeal as it rates fairly high. Currently an 85 on
metacritic.
I like the developer, probably why I got it to begin with. It's made by Level-5. The same company who was behind Dark Cloud and Dragon Quest 8-9.
Both of them are very good if you have a ps2 or are into emulation.
The remaster is currently $50
on steam. I know I never paid near that, probably got it in some sale.
We will see if Ni No Kuni is worth recommending. Atm I don't really see the hook in it. But I’m still early game, I think. Recently recruited the first party member.
