>>781653Been a while since I played it, got a platinum on it way back, but I remember the story being interesting enough. Something like a dragon invades your village and, as he is impressed by your determination to stand against him, basically steals your soul. Cue you going on a quest to get it back. Also turns out youre some sort of chosen one but nobody really believes it.
Characters vary. Seem to recall the king being a bastard, there being a merchant who swindles your money, a female knight you can disgrace and a witch everyone wants dead for no real reason. The dragon is probably the most interesting character but you dont learn a lot about him until very late on.
And the quests are a standard affair. "Go here, kill the thing", "Escort the caravan" or "Get me X of Y". Worst part about them was how Capcom decided to shoe horn a bunch of them in as crappy DLC. I also seem to remember there being weird things you had to do in order to unlock certain armour/weapons.
Combats where its at, though. Adventuring at night is pretty dangerous since cyclops and chimeras can come the fuck out of nowhere.
