I'm trying to get through the first one, but the story is so cringy, worse than the original. Does it get better in part 2?
It's probably an acquired taste at this point. I definitely understand why it's cringy, but I was a big fan of the original and when you got to read everything in your own internal voice, the context was a bit cleaner. JRPGs generally put Japan's culture and tendencies first, so it can be alienating when you don't get to fill in some blanks yourself. Assuming you're western.
