Gorgeous artwork all the way through, music I listen to outside the game. Story and characters swing from endearing and compelling to plots quickly brought up and dropped, Combat starts out interesting with the ability to send enemies to the past and future with additional effects, but spamming Haste and elemental weaknesses worked for the whole game.
this game is absolutely amazing. it is from a Columbian studio, and there are cultural influences throughout the game. the artwork is gorgeous, with the 2D characters looking seamless with the cell shaded 3D backgrounds. the scene framing is cinematic and moving.
the mechanics are familiar JRPG turn-based, but with plenty of quality-of-life upgrades. once you understand the main role of each character, the battles will become far easier and thus feels rewarding when you figure it all out.
the characters are intriguing and vibrant, with fun and well done voice acting all around. the storyline is inventive and heartfelt. don't skip through; it's well written.
my recommendation: take your time with this game. enjoy the entirely of the experience.
A recurring theme of negative reviews of this game is that the player didn't actually finish the game before reviewing.
Well, I'm sorry to say that this is another such review. But I did get 8 hours into the game before the last of my patience with it evaporated, so I think I've seen enough to have a fair opinion?
First off, there are serious pacing issues, as many other reviews have noted. The game is an absolute slog. Literally everything about this game is just too slow. Outside of battle, the movement is too slow (a run button would've worked wonders). The loading is not optimized, so there are loading screens at the beginning and end of every battle (given that this game uses traditional random encounters, this problem shows up often enough to get annoying) The battles themselves can be slow as well, especially bosses, where victory often involves outlasting the enemy with cheap heal spells and winning through attrition.
Secondly, THIS happened. About 5 hours in SPOILER ALERT

a major plot point had me overthrew the crooked leader of a city. Afterward, it was set up as some sort of meaningful choice to decide which of the local NPCs should be the new leader... and then the game just picked for me. That was really jarring, and I initially assumed the choice was just cut content that the devs excised very poorly when they didn't finish it. But then I looked up a walkthrough and it sounded like I actually was supposed to get a choice? Two choices by default, and a third better one if you do all the sidequests. But I got no choice, it just picked for me. So I guess my game just bugged out. Either way, that was a very off-putting experience that left a bad taste in my mouth.
And that really didn't seem to be the only time the game failed at properly implementing one of its more interesting ideas, it was just the most jarring instance.
So after three more hours failed to impress me enough to salvage my opinion of the game, I just called it quits.
As a great looking graphic adventure story in its liking the adventures of crisbell and her party aren't to be disliked in all the confusion of all the matters during the story movement, and interfering matriach nemisises. The position of the game to get you feeling like there is a message towards a conclusion, people giving a way to loosely get there and onto the event of the finish of the story. The troubles to get there not easily going away, the true call getting you strategising efficent level raising.
The player on a stage to the front and getting a harmony of power dressings in readiness. The given party will be reaching out to the player unlike any particular fan, players will then see an entering into a formidable prefect setting or dismal countenance with leave to an emphatic cost and becoming what you can to the superior. You can get there in the messy complexities, the end could be seeing and sensing where to pursue your anime art considerations and tokenisings' made up.
The game the best to tap your gains and experiences with ample acuity, raised to the better of life forging through the planet's reflexes on all with problems in plain views. The guise profound and alienating, giving rewards in weird science, the contact skills not to everyone's likability. Freaky powers giving them a call to see what turns up next, and what will return the world to its natural state, them all to be together for the bigger missions. Course to seeing the lands on their pressing desires finishing the imperial empress then losing time for the alter ego's fashions. The aids coming under sufficient there they rise in power factors here lesser in knowns.
4.5/5
