Not so good as it could seem...
What can be better than Diablo in medieval Japan? Well, in fact this Japanese flavour is probably the only positive thing I can say about this game, alas. The VERY tedious party management kills half of the fun right away. The party formations (that look like an interesting idea) work bad or don't work at all, and their management is also very tedious and counter-intuitive. The rest is killed by the game action speed, you just can't feel the fighting as it feels in Diablo and other ARPGs, you almost never can even read the types and names of enemies not to mention their health bars. Everything is happened too fast, characters move very fast, the animations are jerking (and I use a very old 2-core CPU on WinXP machine). So the fighting brings no enjoy, and the items system doesn't add to it as well, the loot is scarce, weapons and other items are rather bland (except for their Japanese names and look). So the gameplay is the constant fight against the interface and party management, interspersed with chaotic and hectic fights against unmemorable enemies. Not the type of fun I personally waited from the game with such a good starting point as 'Diablo in medieval Japan', you know...

solid old school
its just a easy paced fun game to play. Like fate or fame. a diablo clone but with a team you rotate in and out to heal or use special skills. lots of specific gear and points to assign... which I like. End game is really rough.
