I played this first on my PS2. At first, I was a bit skeptical. But that changed as soon as Flonne entered the scene (Nin Nin Nin). The actual game was quickly completed. But beyond that, there was so much to explore...The Assembly...but especially the Item World. So, when the game finally became available for PC, it was an instant purchase. I can't say exactly how many hours I spent with it (over 200 on PC alone). It's a real shame that this super game will probably never be available on GoG.
