✦ AI summary
Ys IX: Monstrum Nox is praised by series fans for its addictive action gameplay, excellent soundtrack, tight controls, and beautiful visuals, with most players finding it comparable to or better than Ys VIII. Common complaints include companion AI getting stuck during exploration, some recycled mechanics from the previous game, and slightly outdated graphics for a 2019 title. Players familiar with the Ys series and comfortable with anime storytelling recommend it as a worthwhile purchase.
If youre a fan of YS series buy it. Its fantastic game though not as great the story compare to ys 8 still its a amazing game with beauitiful graphics and addictive gameplay. Voice acting is top notch. The OST are the best!!! Tight controls and satisfying action And the most important part is Yufa(Raging bull) humongous tits. 10/10 LESSGOOOOOOO YS5 found this helpful
Good and fun game. If you are coming from YS 8 you will be right at home. Unfortunately, raids are back, with different name but similar format, lots of mechanics from 8 are back actually. The new part is that you and your characters have like a superhero secret identity with special powers. Story wise, very anime as usual, but it a good way I guess, world ending event that you have to fight. Slightly shorter than 8 I think. What I didn't like is how buggy your companions become while exploring, they keep getting stuck trying to climb up a wall, or keep jumping into a cliff. Visually might feel outdated considering this game came out on 2019, but that is a personal take, Totally recommended IF you like anime cliches, you don't mind visuals AND, of course, you like ARPGs.1 found this helpful
fun game
Great game ! ^_^
The French are alright
Unpopular opinion but I think this game is slightly better than Ys VIII, better supporting cast, slightly better combat and raid battles, the story is more character driven and I like that they reference Adol's past adventures. Overall experience: pretty memorable. If you played Ys VIII you will likely enjoy this one aswell.
