Gameplay: The game is ok, it can be fun, but it's not my style.

History: Until chapter 7 the storytelling is extremely precarious, only managing to find each other during chapter 9 onwards. Seeing Sirin return is cool and for all the drama related to the second impact has an impact on seeing her return, but what we have of her in the game is extremely shallow, even further on in the story, all the substance she has comes from the manga. , which is excellent by the way, this for me is a clear demerit of the game.

It took the series 9 chapters to figure out how to tell their story and know how to execute it, and to prove that they finally got it, they give us the wonderful scene of Himeko.

The scene is EPIC and manages to bring a good emotional drama, but imagine what the scene would be like if the work knew how to work from the beginning, giving space and focus to Himeko, oh my God. .. we would have a masterpiece here.

Honkai's biggest problem in terms of story, at least in the game, is that it doesn't have any substance, it's empty. If you really want to consume the story, if you want to know more about the characters, the world, the whole mythology, you should go for the manga. Honkai's biggest mistake is that you're forced to go into the manga so the in-game story isn't empty. And the mangas have several different order that you can follow and in the end each one can have a completely different experience depending on the way you read the mangas and interspersed with the game, it's a fucked up mess to read that even disheartening.
Of course you can just read the game like I was doing, but as I said it's empty and you feel like there's something missing, this for me is Honkai's biggest problem and mistake.
