I got overwhelmed with Fortune's Weave and decided to give Path of Radiance a try while I was borrowing a Switch 2 and like, I feel like this might the best art direction a game has ever had? Basically every part of it (except the 3D battle models) looks incredible and perfectly fitting the tech

PoR and RD have my favorite scale of the series. No need to abstracted it out with Village or mountain tiles. Just lean into the fact you have only 8 peeps and you are fighting in streets or on a boat. It actually helps sell the games narrative better.
