What players think
The recurring themes across 65 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Unique: Between the three games in the Data Hacker series, a unique world, with a decent amount of story and logic put into its creation.
While the art style is modest and clearly constrained by indie resources, it serves the narrative effectively by reinforcing the idea that the world is unstable and constantly shifting.
The combat is, visually and mechanically, improved over the previous games.
Great game, nice sound track, a good continuation of the storyline where you can jump right into without having to play the previous 2 games (Though I highly recommend that you do play them) with a good cast of characters.
since i like rpgmaker games, and this one series, the data hacker series. atm i am playing dh reboot, and it gives a nice challenge, where i have to try a lot of stuff just to get stuff done, the rpgmaker games, have both made me more active on the forums, since i occasionally get stuck, and the strategy guide pdf is not out yet, but it helps keep me from getting bored, by helping the dev find a few bugs to fix. it is a complex and well written story, and fun gameplay, at least for me. while sometimes 3d images, characters and worlds may look neat, sometimes you just need an oldschool rpg fix and data hacker reboot, and a slew of other rpgmaker games that i have, gives that fix satisfactory. well that's about it for this review. well what are you waiting for?
