Act 1 one is very weak unfortunately, it's a major flaw of the game. After one of the strongest prologues in recent gaming memory they whiplash the narrative into hours and hours of Gestral nonsense and completely ruin the vibe. And none of the main characters react believably to any of the insane bullshit - not to mention react to why they understand Gestral.
I'm glad I pushed through in the end and overall the game managed to stick the landing, but I was very close to abandoning it around the Gestral village.
I strongly disagree, I don't think act 2's reveal would hit nearly as hard without all the build up.

Act 1 is how the player is allowed to empathize with maelle, letting you love the gestrals and npcs is what makes the final choice of the game interesting and gives the whole 3rd act stakes.I did this part today. I think it was alright, old school FF fare.
