Great article and I have to agree with Alana's points. It really did feel like the games key tone began to change at that moment and really opens up the party's importance in the greater world.
A pity to see Platinum lose so much talent over the last few years. Really had hoped for an Astral Chain sequel for the new Switch would come via Platinum.
But who knows what lies in future, I live in hope as Nintendo do still own the IP (as far as I'm aware)
Had it been a simple port and improvement on the visuals it would have definitely been a lower score. But with additional story and features, simplifying some of the quests and Blade requirements (that were a bit of a grind on the original). It definitely pushes it up to a 10/10 for me.

@Solid_Python The Japanese financial year ends in March. So it's a last push the month before.

Re: Nintendo Gives Us A Closer Look At Switch 2's "All-In-One" Carrying Case
The shell does look quite durable and considering the price of the console, I can understand the wanting to invest in one a high quality one.
But with competitors offering similar products it's hard to fork out 80 beans.
