    One area of gameplay I wasn't able to check out was town exploration and interacting with NPCs outside of a dungeon. This has me curious to see just how large this game gets and how the gameplay loop evolves over hours of gameplay. However, one thing is certain: this is an exceptionally gorgeous game. It features all these little touches of quality that on paper might seem overwhelming, but they are so satisfying on-screen.
    Thankfully, we won't have to wait long for Metaphor: ReFantazio because it's releasing on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam.

      Free action is used to defeat enemies weaker than you w/o and skipped turned based combat. Enemies stronger than you free action gives you a preemptive strike, which stuns the enemy as well. You can also just straight up go into turned based combat regardless of all this.
