The storytelling is also a very weak point of that game, too many names of characters and places without any exposition. But also, most battles can be won only on a “unique planet parade” of RNG, so you have to reload an enormous number of saves.Ĥ. That makes the gameplay a lot slower, which is pretty slow even on easy. But that game higher difficulty doesn't make an AI smarter, it only creates more warriors on the battlefield and also increase their stats. I love to play such games on high difficulty levels. Those 2 elements make the battles extremely slow.ģ. Second element, is a mandatory armor breaking mechanics, most enemies have a pretty good armor level which lowers the health damage actions drastically, so there is another type of actions - armor breaking actions, you have to choose how many actions do you need to invest in an armor breaking, before switching to a health damaging. Even if you have 6 warriors and the enemy only 2, each your single warrior action alternate with the enemy one. Combat mechanics is primitive, repetitive and slow, because of 2 elements, first is active phase is always alternates between the player and the CPU without any dependency of combatant’s count.

The mix of a social quest and TBS is a horrible idea.Ģ. And that of course impacts the combat itself.

Most of them has an optimal outcome later on, but you are completely clueless for making a thoughtful choice. The game is also a social quest game where you have to make hard choices through the dialogues, which have consequences. I'm big fan of a tactical turn-based games, and I really tried to like this game, but their cons weigh a lot more than pros.ġ.
