I only spent 30 minutes on this but I am just not enjoying it. The pixel art is beautiful and I like the music, but it doesn't feel at all like a Mana entry and conducts itself against the virtues that most Mana games tried to uphold. I know it's a tactics game, but it immediately rubbed me the wrong way that our protagonists were slaughtering beastmen without even knowing why they were sent out on their mission. This is ignoring the fact that our main characters are in the military- which is again just uncomfortable for a Mana title. The gameplay is very strange too and slow, I do not think I like it. I'll probably pick at this game from time to time but I don't think I'll be finishing this one.
