I tried the beta and it was extremely hard (for me, a person who is bad at video games) so
Megan
yeah
happy holishibe
the difficulty curve is honestly so. werid
happy holishibe
some fights it's like. wow this is laughably easy, others are just so obnoxious
happy holishibe
and like the TP system make things easier in some ways but also makes having any magic user on your team a pain in the butt
happy holishibe
and i said this on twitter but the whole game just feels like it's trying real hard to be FFT and just. falling short of what made FFT good in every aspect
happy holishibe
like. would it kill you to put the character sprites in the dialogue boxes??
happy holishibe
they have this really gorgeous character art, but for a game that is mostly cutscenes you only see it when you're fighting and even then only at the bottom of the screen. like wtf
happy holishibe
also the random narration between sections is so unnecessary
happy holishibe
like. game, you don't need to rehash the shit i just did
happy holishibe
i also don't understand the reasoning for having some cutscenes as optional
happy holishibe
plus the passage of time is ???
happy holishibe
it's like everyone knows everything all the time instantly
happy holishibe
how big is this kingdom that news travels that fast....
melon lord
I feel like the game is trying really hard
melon lord
I do think it’s interesting that your choices make such a big difference in the storyline though
happy holishibe
it's trying so hard. the choice mechanic is good tho. I just came across the first vote where I didn't get the result I wanted
Spazztichero
Oooh interesting. I was curious about that one because I do love tactics games so much. It's sad to hear that it's not great
happy holishibe
ah yes, the requisite "i am female love interest and so i must cook" sene

yuuuup
