@Jinx: The character designs look so children's story book esque yet the storylines are very heartfelt and adult like that it proves the old proverb "never judge a book by its cover"  I remember Secret of Mana on the SNES when the main character gets booted out of his own town and now had to find his own way in the world, that part was just brutal even in a game touted as a kids game.   Square NEVER backed down from hard hitting themes such as death or betrayal in a way that feels understandable and even at times relateable in a way no other series of games ever has.  Visions is a prime example of the developers understanding this and working something truly fantastic.  I recently beat the game and am now doing the post story missions.  I loved how the story was told and how heart wrenching some of the scenes were and how they made me feel like I was more invested into wanting to complete this game to see what happened next.  I put in over 90 hours into the entire first part of the game and reached the coveted level 92 level.  I am still wanting to go back and do new game + but with so many new games I have gotten since then it won't be happening anytime soon but I DO look forwards to revisiting Visions again.
