    It's a shame they never explored the elemental effectiveness mechanics. There's a whole system where each type has weaknesses and resistances, but on top of adjusting damage, it also add a special effect. Air is super effective against Fire; hitting a Fire enemy with an Air attack extinguishes them and reduces their attack, while hitting an Air enemy with a Fire attack creates an updraft that protects them from three attacks. Hitting a Plastic enemy with a Fire attack melts the plastic and temporarily makes them a Poison type. It's so involved and leads to very interesting gameplay

    Fun fact! "Kayleigh" is actually the Irish spelling of the name. Grouping a lot of vowels together as well as the combination of "gh" are both very common in Irish words. However, seeing as "y" isn't a part of the Irish alphabet, I'm not exactly sure on the origins of the name. Google gave some very mixed results

    There was actually a short lived Pokemon manga called Pokemon ReBurst that had the same concept of the humans fusing with the Pokemon.
    It's pretty funny how Jacob and Jo independently brought up the points of "listening to music in another language because it's not distracting if you don't understand it" and Persona music, since Shoji Meguro has stated that's exactly the reason why most of the music in the games are in English.

    If we are on the topic of monster collecting rpgs that are pretty neat, there is the game called Monster Sanctuary that is a 2D sidescroller with some light metroidvania elements. There will be puzzles in the world that are like, "You need a fire or slashing monster to get through this!" so you have to go find one and bring it back there. Also there are like dungeons that each have their own biomes and unique monsters.

    SPOILERS
    the main bosses are like otherworldly lifeforms and are nearly comprehensible to your character and other humans and this is represented by them being in artsyles that are very different from the pixel art style. also there is a group and vampires that arent actually vampires they're landlords which is worse.
