the loading screen are longer than gameplay, uses the same system as Genshin, weapons mixed with characters, same rate you gain currency and same price on currencies, tbh, would've been a good game if it wasn't for the awful loading screen every 1s, not really worth it to play as of now because of the loading screen whenever:
1. you talk to npc
2. check your characters
3. move to 1 place to another
4. each time a cutscene need to change location (yes, loading screen in between cutscene)
Graphics: 4/5
really nice L2D
Sound: 3/5
Gameplay: 2/5
think of Honkai Impact 3rd if it's sidescrolling 2D hack and slash game and if loading screens are considered gameplay
Storyline: 2/5
Value: 1/5
if the game didnt have way too much loading screen, and if the game didnt copy genshin's banner system, the value woud've be higher
It's a gem for anyone who cares for a good rpg story and cares to read details about lore and about game mechanics. The battle gameplay is simple enough to be fun and complex enough to be interesting. It can be played solo, like a classical rpg, or multiplayer, for example if you're into pvp or need help with a difficult stage. The progression is well designed, there's always something to do to get stronger, and I've never run out of energy.
I can't say I appreciate the weapon system with randomized stats, but I'm not worrying about min maxing and even this is working for me.
The dubbing is superb (and complete), and there's many languages for subtitles.
I'm worried about the lack of a sweep function, but so far I haven't felt the need for it - which means the game doesn't feel like a chore.
The gacha model is quite good in my opinion, not predatory; the gacha is fair, purchasing options are straightforward and to the point. I don't feel like I'm missing out for not spending, and I'm thinking of getting one of the season passes for its value (There's two tiers).
Focusing on the certain parts of this game, excluding the Story and Sound aspects particularly as both are quite well done in my opinion
Gameplay - 2/5
A simple combat system resulsts in a substantially simpler learning curve. However, this simplicity also results in repetitive gameplay with a lack of combat flexibility.
A lack of in-game skill cutscenes reduces overall combat immersion
A lack of a sweep function or reward multiplier results in a repetitive and tedious process for farming materials. This is made worse by the repetitive snd tedious gameplay cycle.
The auto battle function, the sole QoL function, does not allow character switching or dodging.
The dodge input button is prone to directional input error or inaccuracy, resulting in frequent dodges in wrong directions.
The stamina bar is often obscured when surrounded by multiple enemies.
An element system does provide a degree of team customizability, however contributes little to the overall poor combat experience.
Graphics - 3/5
The overall world design is representative of a dark fantasy world
Character designs are well-done, possessing designs that are well-suited for the theme of the game
In-game level designs are appealing at first, however soon grow repetitive as a lack of level design diversity renders the player feeling a sense of repetitiveness.
Skill graphics are lackluster, as previously mentioned, a lack of in-game skill cutscenes renders the gameplay less immersive
Value - 1/5
Adopts a similar gacha system to that of Genshin Impact. However, the quality of characters and gameplay does not justify the use of this system.
Characters are simply of incomparable value in comparison to Genshin Characters, however the required premium in-game currency for said characters is similar.
The acquisition of premium in-game currency is tedious due to the gameplay system of the game. For context, the collection of premium in-game currency in Genshin Impact was not considered tedious due to the open-world nature of the game and the numerous enemies and puzzles found throughout the game. However, this game provides premium in-game currency primarily through clearing levels, a inherently less immersive and interactive experience in comparison to Genshin Impact.
Conclusion
Based on what I have experienced in the game so far, albeit a limited amount of experience, this game requires substantial amounts of reworks and optimizations for it to solidify it's presence in this highly competitive gacha game market.
This game believes it is of similar quality of Genshin Impact, hence the adoption of a similar Gacha system, however fails to recognize its inherent differences and consequently, weaknesses.
Overall, this game is yet another game deluding itself as game comparable to Genshin, or at least capable of simulating a percentage of Genshin's success.
The game has potential, however until it can differentiate itself from the shadow of Genshin Inpact, it will not be anything more than a novel concept of a dark fantasy genshin wannabe.
please DO NOT LISTEN TO THE HATE FROM THESE GENSHIN TARDS, i swear just give this game a try its fun a refresh from gemshin crap and its a generous game that rewards your hard work propelrly, strory is good in my opinion enough to keeo you interested , gameplay is really good it has some solid mechanics , graphics are good as well . overall its fun and amaizing even the characters are really good
when it comes to game play each character has different skills , weapons and elements . this is a combat game dont expect anything revolutionary when it comes to gameplay just like any other fighting game. its solid
Stroy wise i think the story is acutually good i have played plenty of gacha games and this one is definitely one of the better ones when it comes to stroy , and also the stroy is fully voiced. not much to say otherwise
as for graphics this is obviously a 2d game but the quality is really nice and smooth ,over all 7/10
Let's me be honest.
If there's one complain I had toward this game, it would be that the Gacha rates is s*ck! 0.6% for a 5☆? May as well ask us to reach the pity!
It's fine if there're only character gacha, but weapon gacha exist as well and the 5☆ Weapon didn't even help much for now.
Next, Story.
The story is good to be honest, better than I expected. But the protagonist are too silent for my taste and become something akin to a sockpuppet without a real purpose except for doing the Goddess stuff.
So far the story is good, but protagonist are too stale? It's as if they are involved but not at the same time.
Gameplay
The Gameplay is fun, there are unique mechanism that let you unable to heal some damage you received which turns the gameplay into challenging in some boss dungeon since your healer can't save you if you took too much damage. It's annoying but fun at the same time since I need to strategize with my weak team.
Graphics
I love this artstyle and I would say it's good enough for my taste.
The In App Purchase is TOO Expensive, with rewards I deem not worth the prices it offer. This make me worry whether the game will shut down at any moment since the dev are too money hungry. They can be assured I won't top up with such a ridiculous price.
Overall it's great game but bit too greedy with gacha rates and In-App Purchase.
Just avoid the game don't even download it I feel like I lost minutes from my life
Pros
You can have with you 4 different characters
Art/story are alright
Cons
Gacha rate ? Scam no way I am even trying to pull something
At chapter 1 I try to play it but the game either freezes or stucks in mobile/tablet
in pc its fine
Combat is very basic with 3 skills(one of them is roll)
People trying to compare it with genuine impact but it doesn't matter
They need to fix a lot of stuff If they want their game to be something in this huge plethora of gacha games out there. Specially the gacha rate is very troubling
If you can ignore the disturbing similiarity to genshin, the game is actually decent. The new season's codes can get you 4 5 star selectors, the current banners let you choose any 5 star in the game to pull for, same with their signature weapons. You certainly have to grind a lot in the early game but later on it gets better. Currently I have to do a stage around 3 times every day. Character design is amazing, I instantly fell inlove with Aurora, Veleno and Arin. You can auto through most stages but I'd recommend manually fighting bosses since they can get pretty tricky for the ai to deal with.
so this game has tons of problems but at the same time its pretty fun. let me explain.
the story is good. the aesthetics are cool and its fully voiced. it is at the same time a bit slow and the animations are clunky.
the game play is a bit clunky too due to some questionable design choices but can be engaging and fun.
the gacha system for what the game is, is a bit expensive and harsh. although it seems to be the standard in today's gacha market. all and all i would say you should give it a shot and see for yourself. 6.5/10
Great graphics. Has that Vanillaware vibe to it which I really enjoy.
Story isn't bad. I liked the lore behind Veda and the books. It would probably be more enjoyable if the English script was better.
The English voices are okay, not outstanding but acceptable. Belle's English voice sucks though.
Gameplay is boring.
It feels like a very primitive side scrolling beat 'em up with character swapping mechanics.
The game doesn't give you a whole lot of rolls to begin with and the tutorial is very long.
