Difficulty- Easy-Medium
Time to complete- 55 hours
This came out around a week after final fantasy so I didn't have time for it. That game cleared everything out of the way, now that I have time for it...It's real good...shocker, playing good vidya instead of bad vidya most of the time? PREPOSTEROUS!
I hear it's like Ogre Battle, not tactics ogre the game that spawned into final fantasy tactics, but ogre battle. It's a psuedo real time strategy rpg thing. It's not starcraft, it's not...diofield chronicle, it's unique. Individual classes don't matter as much as how they fit in a formation, and you move formations around a map. Enter battle and everything happens automatically, in fact you know the outcome of the battle before you even engage. If you aren't going to win, use another formation, or switch something up, or use an item, or maybe an assist. It's a bit weird not having ANY control over a battle, but when you realize the control comes before, not during it makes sense. Ontop of that it's not like you have no control, you still move units around, they got map abilities, there's strategy and tactics and whatnot.
Not all that hard...but the game kind of lets you break it if you want. Wanna fight stuff WAY higher level than you to get WAY more exp...it'll be hard but once you crack through it's snowballin time.
This is a special game, great presentation, fun, a vanillaware game that actually launched on hardware I have. (fuck you muramasa launching on the wii, to only ever get ported over to the VITA of all things, fuck you dragons crown for being ps3 exclusive...till I nabbed you on ps4 much later)
Gives me the urge to try ogre battle/ogre battle 64. No idea what's next, I did end up getting persona 3 reloaded on sale...but damn I don't need another long ass rpg right now. I need to go outside or something.
