Customer Review: One of the Best RPG Games I Ever Played
Summary: 5 Stars
And this is coming from someone who has played so many other RPG games including the very impressive Legend of Dragoon and also of course the famous Final Fantasy games.
The characters for one are quite memorable. Let's take Noa first. She eventually will become, if not your strongest, then second strongest in the entire group. Her speed is superior over the men's and thus makes her deliver some hard hits. She became my best fighter and unlike others she was my favorite character. Many here say that Noa is annoying but honestly people she was raised her whole life in a cave without any human contact. Of course she doesn't understand how to behave in public how could she? So I think reviewers should cut the game some slack with her since they're just trying to make her realistic.
Gala is a great fighter due to his body strength. He eventually hits the hardest and does great damage to the enemies. Gala himself is a rather interesting character as well. At first he doesn't warm up to either Vahn and Noa, but only because of his extreme dislike for seru and anyone who wears them. When he finds out how special Ra- Seru though, he warms up and becomes a willing and actually humorous character.
Vahn is the one you have to control. He only speaks what you choose for him to say but everyone loves him. He's the nice guy and a good fighter as well. He's not as quick as Noa, or as strong as Gala, but nonetheless when you get his levels up he can be a great fighter as well.
Now for the game itself, it is a very fun, and long game. If you're not patient enough to last through a long video game then you better steer clear of this game. It took me 70 hours to finish it and that's mainly because every town that was filled with the Mist I stuck around before saving it to level up a bit more. Some people I notice complain of how hard the bosses are. I found none of the bosses truly hard at all- even the final boss I did not break a sweat over. Maybe because I have played so many other RPGs that they were easy, but I think even someone not really into RPGs could easily beat the bosses of the game. It's just I think a lot of people didn't level up as much as they should have. At the very end of the game I was at level 52 for my group and that was more than enough for me to beat the game.
Leveling up can be a pain once all three characters get to higher levels, but the bosses are easy to beat as long as you level up a few in every Mist- filled town. So I advise gamers to do so. Also leveling up the magic creatures your Ra- Seru takes in as is very easy and necessary- just use them frequently in battle and they will easily level up in no time.
Also it is smart to level up anyway to get a lot of money. Because I do agree with one complaint- the weapons in this game cost a lot of money eventually. I think the point is to fight a lot so you don't have a money problem- but I do agree the weapons still, especially towards the end of the game, get to be too pricey. Just fight a bit, or even sell an accessory you don't wear, and you will eventually find the money for them.
The plot and subplots of this game is what keeps you overall entertained. I won't repeat what the Amazon review already has wrote out so well, but the basic goal throughout the game is to destroy the Mist all over the world by reviving Genesis trees and destroying Mist generators. Along the way many interesting characters come along and you fight a few and help a few.
The best part of the game is definitely the outfits though the three get to wear. The new weapons and armor they wear are always different in appearance and visually appealing. Noa's outfits are especially beautiful. It's worth the money I think to pay for them.
So overall this is a long and very creative game. The storylines throughout the game connect well and the plot itself unravels well as you go along. The characters are likeable and as said before the battle scenes are visually appealing and fun. The levels do take awhile as you get up to higher numbers, but you do not need at all to get anywhere near level 99. As said before, I beat the game easily at level 52. I would say the only really minor negative parts are the long levels and amount of money for armor- other than that, this game is a true joy. Highly recommend for people who like games such as Final Fantasy.
5/5
