What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The story is also good.
The combat has improved since Judgment: the new Snake style feels great, blocking attacks and enjoying the change of styles is a joy.
In terms of gameplay, it’s the same fare as the other RGG Studios games, and it uses the Dragon Engine as well.
The graphics are beautiful, the framerate is excellent – what more could you want from a game?
• Wonderful soundtrack
Lastly as a disclaimer I always forget to put on RGG games that offer English audio - I always play with Japanese audio + subtitles because I feel it portrays the authenticity, emotions, and seriousness better.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 4 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
