It's saved by the strong character writing and the stellar ost. The actual plot is a flimsy excuse to reuse as many assets as possible even though it all does kind of come together in the end. Making the game a dungeon crawler just feels bad because the dungeon crawling is by far the weakest aspect of this series and Falcom did nothing to actually try to improve it. Dungeons are all still just bland generic hallways but they dont have the excuse of feeling like a part of an actual world like in FC and SC instead just feel like fake shitty video game levels. I also think this game set many bad precedents that ruined a lot of games later down the line.
