Yes, it's a little short, but that has no bearing on how enjoyable the experience is. Go read the GOG and Steam reviews. They're much more reasonable.
   
   I have NO IDEA what the other user reviews are on about. Seems like some kind of sabotage attack or something because this game is just like a classic Suikoden-esque JRPG. Don't believe the 0 scores here. Something is really fishy about that, because nothing people are saying was part of the game. I played it all the way through. There was no "replaying over and over", hell there was barely any backtracking. That one guy **** about Kickstarter has some weird personal rant going on there which has nothing to do with the game itself. Greedy dev? Really? because they're releasing 3 generations of the game? These days it's not uncommon for small devs to release games in episodes...even bigger devs do that (Telltale Games). It has nothing to do with greed and everything to do with releasing what you can with the funding you have so you can continue the fund the remaining episodes. Just because the TITLE doesn't say "Generation One" doesn't mean they're being deceptive, it's clearly stated in the game's description on GOG and Steam that it's part 1 of 3.… Expand

Battles have wild spikes in difficulty and the art style clashes nauseatingly. I don't get how the story isn't cliched in anyway...?
   
   music was awesome, but gameplay and story falls flat. Shoulda just stopped a the epic soundtrack...
   
   guy before was not wrong about it being a partial experience, would rate higher if it was...
   
   very sad, i thought this was the next suikoden...all i got was ripped off
   
   hope they make a better game next time...
   
   *still hopeful* :)… Expand

   This game taught me that you should never back anything on Kickstarter ever. Was extremely disapointed that the developers wasted my moneyThis game taught me that you should never back anything on Kickstarter ever. Was extremely disapointed that the developers wasted my money like this. AND THEY HAD THE GALL TO ASK FOR FREE LABOUR TO PROOFREAD THEY'RE SCRIPT I know the game was poop when they did that and i was proven write. Their Q&A is a joke and the writer sucks as well...dont even bother with this one.
   
   Game is only 5 hours long btw.… Expand

   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I backed this game a long time ago, was surprised when i finally hit cause i thought it was vaporware but now i wished it stayed vaporware... The story doesn't make sense, and the battles are boring and easy... i'd recommend getting anyother RPG maker game on steam than this one...at least those are fun to play...… Expand

   DO NOT BUY, NOT A COMPLETE GAME, i am severely angry at the GREEDY developer of this game. It is not a complete experience but only part 1 ofDO NOT BUY, NOT A COMPLETE GAME, i am severely angry at the GREEDY developer of this game. It is not a complete experience but only part 1 of an alleged 3 part series. The developer does not make this fact plain on the title or within the game itself.
   
   What game is even in the package is woefully lacking when compared to the promises the developer has given. Choices will have no consequence and their idea of "epic" is replaying the VERY SHORT campaign 6 times to get different MONOLOGUE HEADS.
   
   DO NOT BUY.
   
   Even if you do WAIT FOR THE COMPLETE VERSION. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!… Expand
