Played a bit during my lunch break today, it seems like I'll enjoy it a lot... But damn, it looks soft on PS5 and it also has what are possibly the worst shadows I've seen in a game for a while.

Hopefully they fix all of that soon.

Played to the first achievement (friendship attack) and boy does it like to cut to an exposition scene every few steps.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Let's go!

Looks like they gave me a PC/Steam code despite putting in PS5 when I backed the project. Really frustrating as I don’t own a PC.

Sent some messages to Yetee and to the studio (via kickstarter) but looks like I won’t be able to play the game until they sort this all out despite backing the project.

 

[adamsapple]

The game is up on Game Pass now too.

 

[Punished Miku]

So is this about 30-35 hours? If so, that's encouraging honestly.

HowLongToBeat says 45-60, but it's hard to say since the game just came out today and that's based on user submissions

I'm 10 hours in. It's okay but the localization damages the tone of the game. Had to cut myself down from being too critical of the game looking like a unity asset flip. At its core it is a Suikoden successor but it won't match 2 but it may be equal with the first game.

(I've only played the first two Suikoden games. I ain't playing a 3D Suikoden. Hell naw.)

Unfortunately I bought the PS4 Version (Digitally)

I should have gotten the game on Steam so I could wait for fan translation mod before I play it

Reminds me of classic Suikoden.

 

[consoul]

Absolutely brutal OT title. Love it.

Auto battle lets you chill and grind. My gripe is being aware of two things 1. Localization issues and 2. Critics

This is great for old school JRPG fans. When I go back to play classic RPGs like these I don’t tend to read a lot of reviews because it’s like “there’s people who think this genre is crap for not doing something more modern”. I didn’t buy this because it’s a modern JRPG.

This. If I wanted to I could boot up my Vita and play Suikoden 1 or 2 again.

 

[Brigandier]

Y'all we need to talk!!! I am absolutely livid... I am OUTRAGED at how racist this game is, I am literally shaking right now.

The Kangaroo and Crocodile people in this game are only voiced by Australians what about other people???... Implying that Australians are all either Kangaroos or Crocodiles is so offensive.
I love the fact Aussies voice the kangaroos

 

[jshackles]

Played through the first hour, liking it so far. Not a huge fan of the "everyone selects their move, then combat happens" thing, but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Also funny playing another game where the main characters are Nowa (Noah) and Mio, same as Xenoblade 3.

 

[NeoLed]

Sad to hear that this game got Hogwarts treatment from the other side of the fences. All that hardwork by the artists, designers, writers are treated like nothing because they hate the work of a translator.

Btw, the game just got patched. Any patch notes to read?

I'm playing on PS5, is that the same patch?

Seems like it. I also found this and it refers to changes to each version
