fox | 1,757 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Pretty meaty 7 hour demo. Progress carry on to full game. Anyone check it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Rothchild | 9,909 Editorials Team · Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I'll grab it once it hits a $30 sale. And then it goes onto the giant RPG stack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a lot of depth and you customize your formations by which type of characters you put in each formation. It is partially real time and each round of combat only lasts 2 rounds - although you pretty much instantly re-enter combat. Normally these are things I don't like - but in this game it is oddly compelling. Lots of characters with different abilities to recruit and tons of weapons/accessories to use. It does suck up a lot of time though. If you can get into it it is a lot of fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just reminded me visually of a bunch of PS3/4 era games I wasn't huge on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just reminded me visually of a bunch of PS3/4 era games I wasn't huge on. For me the most important thing is gameplay. The switch has really opened up a wealth of SRPGs - a genre that has until now been sadly neglected - previous to the switch my favorite era was the PS1 - but the switch games tend to blow those out of the water. Another one of my faves is Banner of the Maid - no physical release though. It is kinda like an updated and improved Shining Force II.

Tabonga | 2,531 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 I finished this game yesterday - there is a lot to do and the overworld map is huge. (There are no dungeons in the game.) If you like SRPGs there are far worse games to engage in. I clocked in with just under 180 hours of gameplay! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
