Eternights Reviews

Enjoyed this game a great deal! Story wise, it was incredibly enjoyable in my opinion! There were some twists I didn't expect, and it genuinely brought me some tears and laughs here and there. The ending is very interesting, and I'll leave it at that to not spoil anyone else! I personally found jokes in the story were well timed and didn't cause me frustration. Though some points the perverted jokes caught me off guard, especially in the beginning. Narrative wise, there were some concepts I found incredibly interesting that haven't been brought up in zombie-like media that I've personally consumed (mainly, Yuna's arc) Now the puzzles. There were plenty to keep you engaged but not bogged down during the stages, and they never made me feel dumb, or frustrated. However, for people who enjoy puzzle games, the difficulty might not be to the level you enjoy. Gameplay- this one is a bit of an acquired taste on my part. While some say it reminded them of persona, I personally enjoy this combat style a bit more. The dodging mechanic is what it's mostly based around, and I like that it's real time, and you can physically run from something instead of pressing buttons to preform actions. While it is on the hack and slash side, if you want a challenge, it would likely be better for you to start on a higher difficulty. Just keep in mind it relies mostly on your dodging timing. Characters is where I think the hugest part of the appeal is. Characters feel very thought out, and emotions seem very considered. I wasn't finding myself frustrated with any of them, unlike most zombie-like media I've seen before. Their emotions made sense for the situation, and didn't seemed over dramatized. Or sprung from a very interesting place that I find fun to explore psychologically. It wasn't afraid to go a little dark which was something that surprised me here and there. My main problems with this game involved the romancing routes, but only in mild ways. I wish there were something to make going on a different route a little faster, if you're not someone who makes multiple files very often. And the ending felt a little too similar every route I took. (though I only took two) The 'extra' cutscene, which I won't spoil, was thankfully personalized to a point. But besides that, it felt a bit like 'insert girlfriend here' in a few small places. Some of the personalities are a bit strong, which isn't my personal taste, but they grew on me over the course of the story. Art and voice acting wise, it felt like it served it's purpose. The CG's are stunning, and the in-game 3D models were nice enough I didn't feel pulled out of it once it switched back. Expressions were cute, and I think there were just enough, and re-use of them never felt out of place. Team attacks are visually repetitive, but as there's a time to build it up, it never really annoyed me. Voice acting felt good, some emotional points even surprised me how well they were spoken. And voices never annoyed me. It felt like combat had just enough voice lines that it didn't become difficult to hear. All in all, I'd give it a solid 8/10. It came here to do what it was made to, stayed just long enough, and was just challenging and interesting enough to keep me engaged. If a sequel comes out, I know I'll be there!

Don't let go of the R2 button. I don't know how a game manages to feel this polished yet-- so unpolished. I don't mean this in a way to badmouth the game and call it of horrible quality, in fact, I think it makes it charming in a way that it's not perfect. Booting up the game, it felt so-- superficial, like a cash-grab sort of a game, or one that's made by a complete amateur with multiple asset flips, then the other, you immediately feel like it's the most passionate game ever made with so much heart and soul poured into it... Even after finishing it, I can't decide what to think of it. I love the mix that this game surprises you with the animation. I love it when anime games incorporate 2D animations to a 3D game, it made it just feel so much more fun and exciting overall. The game had such an amazing start to it, but it starts to slow down after. It sets up the tone and atmosphere really really well and makes it look like it's going to be such a great game. Right off the bat, I was amazed already with what I was experiencing; the monsters are even so terrifying that it sent shivers down my spine when I saw one just frantically chasing me with pitter-patter steps. The combat element is surprisingly super fun although it can get repetitive real quick. A lot about it is just having the enemies be more spongier over time. There's not a lot of things going on in this game and it's pretty short, although I would say it thankfully doesn't overstay its welcome and force too many of the same exact thing on you. I think what I like the most about this game is how diverse the characters are and you can even go for a gay option. It's really interesting and rarely do you find that in a game like this. The characters are really fun and enjoyable to interact with. The designs of the characters on the other hand-- are, okay. They seem a little generic and the only one who really stands out is just Yuna. Nevertheless, I think the perfect way to really describe this game is that it's just "Okay", but it does it in a way that it starts to build its own sort of charm from it. It tries to be like Persona but isn't at the same level. It feels like CODE VEIN but as if you were in an early development of it. All-in-all, I do like what they try with the story and the system that they have implemented for the dating aspect of the game. I can't say it's a great game nor would I recommend this to most players but it's one I can see that can be fun in its own way if you don't focus on comparing it to games that you already know.

The combat is not that good, its really depending on quick time event and timing The transition between next day and day an night is too much when, when the day end we have to see the mc go to sleep for no point, i hope it more seamless The mini games training with yuna and yohan for me its harder to get perfect than the others, or just skill issue here [spoiler] i hate it when the girl we choose is the one that go, but that what make it good story, and when we got the romance ending the extra video add up a little spice to make me cry more [/spoiler] i dont know for full price, but its really worth it when sale

Game keeps crashing right when his buddy friend gets his powers...black screen and forever loading....dont waste my time if y'all not gonna fix the game dawg...

not fun and very hard mini games that are not skippable and practically punishable. Not worth paying to suffer.

Nice story, congratulation for making this game short, otherwise I might dying for unable to skip the story. the story was just fine imho, not the best tho. I just wanna date Yuna, Sia and Min <3

Game play wise it's ok, nothing that special in the genre. However character wise, I find it charming, all the characters are pretty cool in one aspect or another. So, if you like the characters, I think its worth a shot trying out.

Combat is so bad and janky it ruins the game. Story isn't interesting. Bought it for $10 but I wouldn't play it if it was free.

Why bother calling it dodging if thee games combat is practically a quick time event? i didn't make it past the prolog before having enough of it.

Ah man, what a hidden gem! I wasn't even going to try this at first because it didn't have many reviews on steam, but I decided to give it a chance, and I'm so glad I did. This game is so much fun. It might not look up to par with graphics compared to AAA titles and the combat is a little odd at first impression, but after a short amount of time I've come to really enjoy both. The combat became a lot more fun as I acquired new abilities, and the character and enemy design are actually really fun and unique. My favorite thing about the game is the interactive conversations and mechanics with the characters, making this a great game for people who like role playing, and the fact that different dialogue choices actually have stats that influence bond adds a level of immersion and replay-ability. Lastly to sum it all up the story is interesting enough to focus your attention and after connection with the characters throughout the game, and all the other interactions, by the end of it all you'll feel a mix of emotions that'll leave you thinking it was definitely worth the time and money.
