This is complete garbage
I don't like this! As for areas I think the 2 areas I went through are really samey thats all I can rly say about them, they're also not that fun to explore.
The crafting system could be cool? But it didn't really explain much and when I first got my tier 2 crafting stone I wasted it thinking I could make a better version of the same piece of armor and I didn't. However after looking into it when I reached the 2nd area, I wasn't impressed at all. The actual upgraded gear you could make really did not feel like a substantial enough improvement to make it worth it.
I also feel the summon system is barely thought out. If I could customize them a bit more that could make it more fun. However, when I reached the 2nd area there may not be a reason to use anything other than the skeleton guys as they are the only summon at this point to have an AOE, making it immediately the best option it feels for basic mob encounters. However, this goes both ways cause they're also basic mob enemies too.
The encounters are extremely boring lol. You either mob the enemies bcus they r weak or you encounter 3 skeletons and get mobbed because they all use AOEs and fuck the party up.
Oh right also the hunting rifle WHY IS IT SHORT RANGED

Ok I'm gonna be writing a bit about this but just gonna preface it with I think the game was extremely obnoxious with how it handled being a Ludonarrative. But I do want to clarify with this that yeah the story is pretty good imo.
Starting with the characters I think they're good. You constantly get to learn about Siffrin without the game telling you outright what he's like at the start and that is awesome! I think every1 is written in a fun way!
I will not go deep into story bcus yeah just in case idk whos gonna play it but there's that. But gameplay? Dude the gameplay? I love exploring the same 3 floor dungeon for hours. For so many hours. Yes. Its a time loop. I got exactly what I should've expected But like, Yeah? I guess I did but did I have fun scrambling back and forth for all those hours? No? Wow just like siffrin haha you see its a ludonarrative because I am suffering like siffrin haha. Having to see the same 3 floors over and over and over and over and over again
They try? To mix it up in act 3? They try kind of? But it does literally nothing? You start seeing enemies from floor 3 in floor 1 and its like "Oh cool I guess enemies will be stronger from now on I wonder what new enemies I am going to see in future floors" and it turns out that no not really its just randomizing where enemies show up thats cool. Its meaningless though. Nothing changed. Its still just enemies that I have to hit and kill in 2 actions. So if that can change though, why not change literally anything else? Anything at all?
This is what I mean by the ludonarrative is too much. It just overpowers everything else. Act 5 changes layout a bit yeah but it just. Sucks. Act 5 sucks. Other than the ending. I think the ending is really good. Im free. Siffrin is free. At least it gives us both catharsis from it all
But overall? I had a good time with the story yeah. But. Yeah I wrote what I did not like. I can't recommend anyone to play it in good faith. If you can accept a ludonarrative as overpowering as this then yeah, play it, you'd probably enjoy it. If not then probably don't play it.

This is a game dude. I went through it a while ago and its still on my mind. At first though I really didn't enjoy the gameplay of the first act, but it should be noted that the atmostphere is perfect
I forgot to write a review but I think the game is fine. Really it should be obvious but people have overblown everything about the game, It's not even pro incest dude. But yeah story is fine and its neat seeing the descent of what the two are willing to go through with.

Dude this game is so fucking stupid but this is an extremely positive stupid I love it so much
It is definitely a 7/10 overall but I have to give it a pure 10/10 out of respect
It’s peak
Mizunashi is truly the protagonist of all time

You know this game is an actual conundrum, I played through the whole thing. The weird part is I think like 99% of the characters are terrible and the gameplay is some of the worst I've played? Egil was cool though at least, and although i would say the ending is neatish I guess? but doesn't rescue the rest of the game.
Dunban (I had to google his name again lol) and riki do nothing the whole game and that's pretty cool, I feel kinda like Reyn and Sharla's moment was kinda out of nowhere but also goes nowhere after that iirc
I really need to reiterate the gameplay issue though. Visions are the most godawful mechanic I've seen in any JRPG. They do not need to last that long. There is a single point the whole game where it lasting that long was actually worth it but its obvious if you've played the game what part I'm talking about.
But really, it's just such a strange feeling playing a game that's rated this highly and feeling like everything is this awfully designed and written.
