Beautiful visuals, good music and a great developing story makes this game one of the best RPG's today...
The second huge component of this game is the story, both in its contents and in the way it is told... funny remarks and intelligent dialogue are present all along the game.
On the bad side, combat scenes are a little too easy, especially when you fall to the temptation to use the "Auto" feature.
Control mechanics, as often with RPG's need a little time to get used to them but after the first hour you should be pretty well acquainted with all the menus, options and button behavior.
Bottom line: If you like RPG's, don't miss this one...
