Alright what's all this then. You got a ps2 era shoddy action rpg with a emphasis on servicing the fans of the IP attached to it. This will likely be a 6/10 type game at best but I might still fuck with it

Month of on and off grinding goes bye and my expectations are somewhat satisfied. The playing the video game part is sub-par and so is the story. Both are somehow perfectly paced in a way that both can never gain any momentum to get you to pay attention.

The story is alot of repeating elements and beats from the stay night but since it gets interrupted every minute by having to fight a guy, I'm somehow more engaged but also less interested. It's a weird unhappy middle ground this game strikes and it never brings anything to the table to really sell itself on something good.

Except for the 2 main characters. They aren't particularly in-depth or interesting, but they have decent banter and are just the cutest little things. Saber in particular makes me want to pull on their cheeks till they come off.

You should really not get this unless you are invested in the IP or have weird psuedo niche tastes. I'll hit this again when the DLC is dirt cheap.
