Something important about the combat system it's that at the end of each battle your hp and tp are restored. So you can really launch all your different attack without fearing missing some TP point. 😁
@vagabundorkchaosmagick-use2898 Жыл бұрын
I know modern JRPGs are being designed like that, but I don't like that approach. It's similar to those first person shooters of the 2010s, in which, if the enemies were winning, you simply go a little away and your health would restore automatically. Not exactly the same because combat is totally different between both styles, but the feeling is the same, and it's a feeling of the game being easy, or the adventure not really dangerous. Nothing's at stake.

I prefer games that operate this way, makes the combat way more fun imo, this usually puts the focus on combat making it more challenging, and less on resource management. I don't mind resource management in say resident evil games, but rpgs not so much.

Oh, no reason to be worried, you get grimoire shards after boss battles which work like level ups. unlocking an active or passive skill with them generally also gives bonus stats, and then you can use these grimoires to level up some stats anyway. The weapon/armor system is akind to FF7 materia system. Not only you can use gold and resources to upgrade weapons and armor,it also upgrades the amount of slots on items. Then whatever gems you picked can be combined for more powerful versions and put into either weapons or armor. There is no number telling you how strong your party is, but it's the beauty of it, you'll get a feel for it instead.

Alot of poeple seem to think this game is easy due your party being fully restored after battle, this isn't true at all. The battles themselves are overall more challenging, hence you have all skills available to use in every fight. Lots of successfully rpgs do this (xenoblade chronicles) Restoring health between fights manually is tedious and just an artificial difficulty people buy in to. Auto-heal is great for the games paceing and saves you from having to pop to a town constantly.

Rarely has a game ever captured me like this one. I could not stop playing and I already hope for a sequel. The rich world of this game definitely has more to offer. The only problems I have is the volatility of the combat system and the lack of information. Overheat punishes you fourfold and you cannot read up on what stats and status conditions mean. You have to rely on your already existing RPG knowledge. You also get tutorial texts only once with no options to reread those in the menu. And those are literally the only problems I have with this game. It's damn close to perfect.

I had no idea Chained Echoes abandoned leveling and I am so happy about that! As a kid, I used leveling as a crutch and didn't realize that grinding my team was keeping me from *actually* understanding the game and its systems. Now as an adult, there are many times I feel disappointed in RPGs often because it's so easy to *overlevel*, and many games don't have de-leveling systems. De-leveling systems and even level caps (like the soft level cap in Triangle Strategy) tend to help a lot, but I'm really excited to try out an RPG system that doesn't function on leveling at all. The way they make each encounter (even with standard enemies) feel special is giving me Riviera: The Promised Land vibes, which is exciting!
