Game is good, but not great
2 von 5 finden das hilfreich I’ll go straight to the point with this review. Combat system is good, and easy to understand, but tutorial is bad. It takes ~20 hours for the game to tell about all the features of combat system, that you can explain in 10 minutes easily. Graphically game is controversial: design is good, world looks beautiful, but resolution is bad. I’m not really sure about that, but it feels like game runs in 720-900p in docked mode and ~480p in portable mode. Story initially looks a little bit promising, but constant deus ex machina’s, setups for story twists that are showed in flashbacks AFTER twist happened make story feel bad when you’re coming closer to the end of the game. Also, characters sometimes act not how they would want to act, but how scriptwriter wants them to act. One last thing to discuss - anime style(I haven’t played XC X, but as far as I know anime style was first introduced in the series in this game). I have no problem with anime style, there are lots of anime that I love, but I don’t like the way of XC 2 doing the anime style. I need to clarify, anime style is not only about design style, but also about how characters behave. If you are familiar with anime, you will see many bad cliches, and if you’re not, sometimes you will see really stupid scenes. For example(it’s kinda spoiler, but I’ll try to conceal it as much as possible), at some point one of the characters will confess his/her love to another characters in a very literal way. And, of course, the person that was confessed to misinterprets that. I hope my review will help you decide if you will like this game or not.
