Fata definitely was an experience
It took me way longer than it should have had since I stubbornly tried making videos about every door but in the end, I managed to finish it!
Fata's cast is very stacked and one of the best in the medium. Jacopo, Michel, and Morgana are all beautiful characters with Ogre-like depth

Jacopo shows us how a strong drive for power and insecurity can end you. He wanted to be the strongest person around because he didn't want to be hurt again but Jacopo just ended up alone and hated thanks to this drive. He was scared of Morgana's and WHG's rejections and didn't tell them how he truly felt before it was way too late. His story is really tragic and the most relatable to me which is I love him so much. Can't wait to read his spin-off.

I loved how Michel's determination had no limits and he never allowed hate to control him as Morgana did. He suffered very badly thanks to his own family but he still loved them anyways. Michel even granted his brothers redemption in the final door - which is one of my favorite Fata moments. He valued love much more than he valued hatred and Giselle's love allowed him to save himself and everyone else in the mansion.

Morgana's story was hellish. She went from a saint to a demon thanks to the suffering she experienced. While Michel didn't allow his own suffering to define him, Morgana couldn't do the same. She was just a young girl with labels thrown upon her. I am very happy that Michel managed to save her in the end and she could finally let up the hatred that had been her core for the past thousand years. The scenes where she goes around and frees the 3 men were very special.


My Door Ranking:

1. Door 8 - 10/10 (Absolutely perfect and was worth all of the set-up in the previous doors)
2. Door 7 - 9/10 (Michel's backstory was amazing and brotherly bonds are top 1 dynamics)
3. Door 3 - 9/10 (Jacopo's story even so early was something else... LOVE HIM!)
4. Door 6 - 8.5/10 (Morgana's backstory made me hold my breath and Michel's determination was something to witness)
5. Door 5 - 8/10 (Michels/Giselle's romance was really sweet)
6. Door 1 - 8/10 (I adored Mell's relationship with WHG here and I really enjoyed the sol)
7. Door 2 - 7/10 (Yukimasa's character study here was scary since it was very accurate for people like him)
8. Door 4 - 6/10 (The relationship between Michel and WHG was very sweet but I didn't really feel anything special here)


I really enjoyed Fata and I think that it absolutely excels at what it tried to do.

This game blew me away. I didn't expect to love it so much at all...
This was the first Rance game that started to give characters true depth and it also was the first Rance game where the combat didn't make me want to end it all.
Rance IV had amazing development for Kanami, Maria, Sill, and Rance. The other characters got some focus as well
We learned of Kanami's dreams of her being a normal girl. She has also started to really care about Rance and Sill
It was revealed that Rance actually doesn't have any magical hold over Sill and Sill stays with him just because she loves him. This detail makes their relationship so much sweeter! And Sill's ''death'' scene hit so hard...
I've really started to love these characters...
The combat system is easily the best so far, even better than 01 and 02!
I didn't have to grind for money or levels a single time while playing this game which was so REFRESHING... You had to grind for some much money in 01 ffs
I enjoyed every second of the action in this game!
I binged this game in 5 days and it took me 30 hours. This game got my complete focus when I started playing it because it is SO FUCKING FUN! Rance truly is the goat...
Rating - 8/10
