I no longer own a switch, and started off pirating this game, but I enjoyed it so much I decided to do my role in supporting all the involved parties. Normally in this situation I would wait to purchase a PC release but its pretty much confirmed there will never be a PC version of this game.
The story setting is just about as trope-y as it can get, but is done with such attention to detail that despite the tropes it doesn't feel generic. I took my time with side quests and team optimization, and managed to spend 80 hours on my first playthrough on expert difficulty. I have some other games on my list to tackle next but I definitely will be revisiting it for what is effectively the "New Game +" difficulty.
If you happen to be looking for something that scratches the same itch, look into Radiant Historia (DS/3DS) or Symphony of War (PC).
