Beautiful, gorgeous, unforgettable
A gorgeously crafted dark fantasy RPG with layered storytelling, inventive combat, and memorable characters like Gustave and Maelle. Every once in a while it stumbles in pacing and polish, but it overall delivers such powerful emotion and artistic ambition that more than make up for any flaws. Play if: - You love JRPGs with complex combat systems but also enjoy real-time action elements (dodging, parrying, timed events). - You appreciate strong aesthetic design and mood-setting: the Belle Époque + dark fantasy style is unusual and immersive. - You are drawn to themes of mortality, legacy, and sacrifice. - You wouldn’t mind a steep learning curve, and you enjoy tinkering with build-paths, party synergies, optional bosses, and side content. - Unexpectedly: even if you don't normally like JRPGs but care more about story, art, and emotional resonance than just action or fast pace, this game can genuinely win you over. Skip if: - You dislike long cutscenes or heavy story sequences. Pacing slows in parts (camp dialogues, exploration, etc.). - You get frustrated by minimal navigation aids (no minimap, environments can feel confusing or repetitive, you can get lost.) - You value tactical depth in battles over perfect timing. Of course, your build makes a real difference to fights, but memorising attack timings is the best way to deal with tough enemies. - You want your gameplay to be simple or easygoing. The combat has depth and demands timing and strategy; some mechanics may feel overwhelming or complex. It is not quite a soulslike game, but some optional fights can be extremely frustrating. (bonus) Get the Deluxe Edition if: - You want to support the developers with your wallet. - You really enjoy cosmetics variety. - You don't expect any extra content (story, bosses, collectables, etc.)
