Eidolons are insubstantial images; originally, spirit-images of a living or dead person, but that has expanded to include things like summoned spirits given form. Thus why the use in FF.

For all those confused, it looks like there MUST be a space between the last quotation mark and the new pcplatform steam

It's like a Fire Emblem game, with romance and gifts, the combat is very similar as well. If you liked Fire Emblem this is probably worth a try. I really like these games with tactical gameplay, get to know your companions and romances.
Gonna have to try it out.

i did something like this, right click Lost eidolon shortcut on the game folder, go to shortcut tab and under Target add ' -pcplatform steam' without the apostrophe. it would look like this
LostEidolons\losteidolons.exe -pcplatform steam
Apply and save. give it a try it worked for me. make sure you add ' -pcplatform steam' correctly

I was impressed by this title during the matches. Excellent combination of tactical elements with those of third-person action.

so far from what I played there been no issues with amount of turns, the only issue so far I had was the "ally can't be defeated" -> ally proceeds to charge reckless in this 1 battle.
(Though again its just a so far, and from what little I read; I don't like it either, but it does not seem type that is demanding perfection or else failure).

The Big thing I agreee with people on though is how it handles rapport (affinity) and too limited side stuff (which affects rapport+items+leveling)

--Hint make sure you check late classes you want earlier on, so you can build the requirements else you will be a civilian fighting Giants late game trying to get them.
-Hint You can cheat leadership with editor/maybe engine along with money, but even then not enough but helps.
