please play baten kaitos. it is amazing for so many reasons but i will list just a few

• there are six party members to choose from in all, and it is equally male and female, something you rarely ever see in video games
• the aforementioned female members are badass as fuck in their own ways
• great character development
• really good ost
• really pretty graphics
• lovable characters
• is a good, long length
• has an interesting battle system that always keeps you on your toes/makes you think quickly and strategically
• very good use of metaphor (example: kalas’ birthday happens in game, to signify a change in himself and growth of his character)
• features a motley crew of people who come together to form a strong bond of trust and family (this happens to be a major weakness of mine personally)
• its special use of ‘guardian spirit’ helps the player connect and care even more about the characters
• good/interesting story line
• gibari
• pretty/cool looking finishers and spirit attacks
• most ppl have wings and they are GORGEOUS
• various armor that usually would be restricted for males (such as the scale mail) can sometimes be worn by the females/restricted to them instead
• none of the females specialize in just healing
