Fire Emblem 4 (but with THICK Ladies!)
I'll be honest, the reason I paid this game any attention was its E3 trailer that dropped. You all know the one, with the big, voluptuous blonde beauty that caught everyone's eye so much that they now use the frame as a permanent promotional image on the store pages. (5th image on this store page by the way.) In a season of boring games with ugly female characters, one that focuses on beauty and conventional attractiveness, and yes, sex appeal, is something nice to see. Something that appeals to those of us who are more on the hot-blooded side and not afraid of seeing attractive women in our video games. The fact that it was an SRPG made the odds that much higher that I would play it. I've been an SRPG, TRPG, JRPG, and RTS fan for a loooong time now. On that note, the gameplay in SoW is fun. I quickly tore through this game. I will say the "normal"/rec'd difficulty is too easy for those who are experienced in TRPGs. I beat it on "TRPG autopilot" (when you play only vaguely thinking about tactics and go on instinct). Lots of customizability, solid map design, nice animations, and fun unit types. The story is ambitious and has a lot of heart and charm, even if its amateurish in execution. I enjoyed it all things considered, though it needs "more". You can see how much influence the game derives from Fire Emblem 4 in its storytelling + style. However, it has influences from all kinds of strategy and tactics games of old. The squad-based mechanics and building, the morale system, the individual units, even having a tech tree. Its honestly hard to tell where exactly they got it all from because there are so many places it could've taken them from. Sengoku Rance, XCOM, Yggdra Union, etc. Some of the obvious ones are Fire Emblem and Ogre Battle/Tactics Ogre of course, which are decent reference point if you'll like the game. There's criticisms I can levy at the game, but its an indie game and they'll get polish over time. The game is worth supporting, check it out.
