I’m about halfway through this game<\/a> (based on a short comic series<\/a>) at the moment, at level 18\/19 with the main party of Gully\/Monika\/Alumon (Tank\/Support, CC\/Striker, Healer\/Striker) at the steps of the fifth dungeon (out of eight). There are a lot of things to like and only a relative few annoyances.<\/p>\n

I’ll list the issues first since they tend to be what people focus on:
\n– It’s very strange you can’t click to move.
\n– The voice acting is… highly questionable.
\n– There’s a notable amount of re-used assets where the enemies and even the dungeons to an extent are concerned.
\n– Switching party members is needlessly restricted (and illogical as well, since the entire party is constantly traveling together based on event dialog).<\/p>\n

That’s it really. Aside from those hiccups it’s a remarkably fun turn-based RPG with quite a bit of content, a large number of fairly diverse combat abilities, and engaging visuals. A couple things in particular to keep in mind are that Attack Power affects the strength of all<\/em> abilities and you can break through certain dungeon walls (they produce a little static dust cloud vfx) to find treasure with Gully’s Groundsmash ability. And though I’ve heard complaints about grinding, so far simply running through each dungeon twice (on Legendary; only the first dungeon had to initially be completed on a lower difficulty) while completing the various side-quests has been enough to stay equal to or above the enemy levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
