CAN CRY

Fire ass opening

THIS GAME WAS SO ASS MAN DO NOT BOTHER WITH IT UNLESS YOU WANT BAIT SOMEONE INTO PLAYING IT. AVOID AT ALL COST TFYM VERY POSITIVE REVIEWS?!?!?!?!

What's good about this game: - A really enjoyable story with good storytelling and lovable characters. They even managed to sneak in a fair amount of funny moments despite the overall depressing setting. It's also a nice touch that the enemies have their own short stories. Tottemo enjoy de excitingu ne. - The Japanese voice acting is superb with really great voice actors/actresses. I didn't want to skip a single dialogue. - Character sprites/artstyle are absolutely beautiful. - A wide selection of background music that never got boring. - Very cool "ultimate skill" animations. - A not too tedious equipment fusion/upgrade process (on Normal difficulty at least). - Rei's room animations/events are soooo nice. And so sad. - Doggo. - Yorokobe, shoujo. Kimi no negai wa youyaku kanau... And what's not so good: - The interactive gameplay - meaning the exploration and combat - is basically just a tedious, repetitive and boring activity to fill the time between the VN-like dialogues. What you experience in the first 30 minutes is what you get for the next 30 hours. On the positive side, if you don't like it, you can rush through the stages killing just a few things here and there (just play on Normal or a lower difficulty). - Considering they went all out with a lot of other things, it would have been nice if they'd introduced at least a few more enemy types (with not just recolored textures), because the game deserves it. - You get used to it, but the combat lacks fluidity due to animation locks (after almost every attack there is a short moment while the character is completely unresponsive and the next action is delayed/queued up). Despite the impactful negative points, I still recommend this game, because the rest is just that great. It's definitely worth its price.

Got this game cause a friend got teased for still not having finished it so I wanted to rub it under his nose but I get it why he didn't beat the game. Game is at best mid as hell. Combat has no variety, you really just spam light attack and no its not a skill issue the game doesn't have any real combos. For something that makes up most of the game not only was it repetitive but boring as hell. Also animation are slow and you can't really cancel your moves. People seem to say the story is the best part but even that is honestly also mid at best to me. The OST was nice though. Also they got Jouji Nakata voicing a character
