The big downside of the game is the language. Entirely in English, unfortunately it will put off all or at least a large part of the refractory to the language of Shakespeare. While it is not necessary to have an excellent level to the game straight he's still better to have solid fundamentals and vocabulary to understand the whole scenario.
You are fluent in English and like J-RPG? Go for it.
You do not like English or have a low level? Go your way, you risk missing out on lots of scenario elements and not to enjoy playing.
