It's a piss-easy RPG with the most generic cliche plot and fantasy world. Despite this, it's very charming in its own way, mostly from the light-hearted and playful tone you get from it. Having a v-pet was a neat idea (though it could have been less vague on its mechanics) and so was collecting living toys which replaced traditional special attacks in most RPGs. The music is great also, which was the pretty much the only reason I decided to play it.

Baby first RPG that gets a lot of things right. Story and dialogue are pretty bland but the game is colorful and cute. Battle are fast paced, theres no load time or random encounter. I like that it doesnt try to be final fantasy or pokemon like you would expect.

>no load time [during battles]
There is, but it's quick and they hide it well.

I guess it's at the start when the screen gets blurry. its still very short compared to... say... final fantasy 9 where you have to glance at the whole scenery for a 1 turn battle.

shining force 3 but without the awesome ost and gameplay

>>4046192
what does it have to do with shining force.

I like the title Knight & Baby better because it's much more fitting to the tone.

A final tought:, this game is very cute and unique. Thats good reason to play it rather than legend of sword 6 in my opinion familia.

Now that's a rare sight to see.

GC is laid back and goes easy on you, sure, but there's charm in its characters, dialog, music and graphic style. There's a heck of a lot of Moomin in those character designs, which never really dip into anime-as-fuck territory other than your rival's spiky hair. Also the world map seguing straight into towns without a change of scale or loading was great.

I love the ost a bunch, really keeps the comfy atmosphere this game has.

I miss when we got these quirky and completely unique rpgs. Even with all the flaws, it was still an enjoyable game.

Any reccs for other quirky, cute, & comfy RPGs?

Rhapsody is pretty great

Yeah it's pretty quirky and cute, although, damn, those dungeons are atrocious. And it is extremely easy.
The musical theme is amusing tho. Odd no one tried that again, with 3D graphics it'd be relatively easy to make the scenes.

self replying but note that I'm aware of the sequel. I meant to say "no one tried that again except it and its sequel".

I like that the fairy became his waifu
