The value story
It has never been cheaper than $10.49. That was September 2026. It has been discounted 51 times in the 9 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 9 weeks between sales. Today's $10.49 at 70 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.
Take the discount away and it is a 58. With it, 65.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 6 percent on value. It is pricier than 96 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 82 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen ($29.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats FINAL FANTASY XIV Online ($19.99, scores 64).
7 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written September 2025 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 56 percent of the 1,567 reviews written there were positive, against 83 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 28 hours; clearing it takes 95, which is 3.4 times the campaign.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

What players say
A great game to play once. But don't replay it - it becomes very apparent in a second play through that soo much content was CUT. In Altissia, if you open the map, it shows a huge area, but only 1/10th of the map is actually explorable! They cut so much content, that they even forgot to change the map for the second region after they cut all the content. A big shame really; all the complaints about this game not...
Great game and great characters. story is wonderful and lovely. you fall in love with those characters. 10/10
