I've been playing this for a better part of the day, and despite a lot of the things I have some minor gripes with, I have to say I'm enjoying this remake.
One of the gripes I have with this is; why did they put in a gunslinger?.. An Archer would've made far more sense considering the state of the world you're attempting to repopulate. A world that was completely devoid of human life till god (player character) came back. There is no heavy industry to support a matchlock let alone a modern-looking six-shooter. It's kinda the same beef I have with Ys 8: Lacrimosa of Dana. And that was the Transporter character (who has a gun). I think they just put these types of characters in games because they feel it's cool or something, so much so that they completely disregard the setting in which the series was built upon/takes place.
