A 6. (I am 15 hours in must be said )It is so boring. Combat is not bad but absolutely nothing special. The story is a bit bland with absolutely no surprises (in fact i will wager loads of money that someone who appears to have bitten the dust is very much alive). And above all if this was called forspoken or something else i would not have batted an eyelid. It doesnt feel like a ff game to me. And yes i know i am in the minority.
You know, turn based rpgs from japan are my favourite genre ever.
But for some reason the persona series just never did it for me.
I started persona 5 and after 30 or 40 hours it just lost me.
Dunno why.
Oh well.
Nobody has played it yet and already the pitchforks are out. Good grief. The trailer was bad, but are we really gonna trash games because of one bad trailer? Nobody played the game yet. And out of touch? Really? So call of duty is tonedeaf because Russie invaded Ukraine? Damn overreactions everywhere.
Ooooh nice They are absolutely all great. I like one the best for some reason, love the slow build up and relations between the classmates. Now remake sky Trilogy!
I will buy the ever loving rune out of this. I will buy digital, physical, pre order, limited editions all of it. I will be a sl#t for this. And i will like it
I think i get why you do mini reviews, but almost always they tend to be to short for me. After reading this i do not have enough to have a clear picture what this is about. (As do all mini reviews for me) Oh well i am probably in the minority here and thats ok.
@Frank90 If you like fire emblem give this a go. Do mind that the fire emblem mindset doesnt get you far. No powerhouse individuals here (especially early game) you get 5 characters and you really need to treat them as a unit.
I am playing this at the moment and i dont get the difficulty complaints. I havent wiped yet and i am almost done with the platinum and campaign.
For me its a solid 7.5
The story is a bit meh but the gameplay is nice, just take your time on each map.
Recommended for everyone who likes strategy rpgs.
Free update for ps5 sounds nice, hope for a seperate trophy list
If anyone has some questions ill try to answer them, the reviews are extremely harsh imo
Apparently i am 6'5. I didnt know that (1,96 in normal measurements ) She didnt look extraordinary small to me as almost everyone looks like that to me
Play and platted 0,kiwami,kiwami 2 judgment and fist of the North Star (i count it) Almost platted 3 but 3 is by far my least favourite, the enemies block so much it sucks. 0 is best for me
The game looked generic as hell. This and the battle pass (just for cosmetics but still a battle pass) tipped it into never play territory for me. But i am sure there will be people who will enjoy this.
People hype these things up to much. And when it doesnt deliver they say it sucks. Is that on sony or themselves? I never expect anything from these things and thus never disappointed.
I am a jrpg fanatic but the persona games do nothing for me. Persona 5 has such high praise but i find it such a slog to get through. Oh well to each his own
I thought well just buy it digital. I dont really need this physical and i like the demo. Then i saw the digital pricings. 100euro for the digital collecters edition? 70 for the normal edition? No. Just no.
In years time people will look back at elden ring and say: 'we rated THIS so highly? Assets are reused all over the place (wait this crypt again? Didnt i finish this ten times already?) , the camera kills you more than enemies do, the story while playing is non existent, the end bosses are balanced laughily bad (good luck with a melee build and the last boss decides to teleport constantly). We must have been high'.
Bah elden ring again. Never ever in my life have i hated a goty as much as this year. I just cant see it. Star ocean 6 is actually pretty good and should be in here. Hzfw is not an rpg.
I will not ever understand the lovefest for elden ring. Kudos to everyone who enjoys it and loves it. For me it was one of the worst experiences i have ever had in gaming. (i did plat it, just through sheer force of will). I hate it with a passion that is almost holy. But i understand that is a minority viewpoint.

Re: Strategy RPG Miasma Chronicles Oozes onto PS5 on 23rd May
@DrGonzo weird, for some reason it doesnt appear on the Dutch store. It is available on the Belgium store (and uk) but not the Dutch store. Shame.
Re: Strategy RPG Miasma Chronicles Oozes onto PS5 on 23rd May
