Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising

I enjoyed this game. Straight forward and fun to play. The simple controls were a neat way to balance the complexity of controlling three characters in an ARPG. Would definitely recommend. All Achievements can be done in a single playthrough, which is a huge win in my book.

Honestly is was better than I expected. It's also cool that it ties up with the main game.

Where STAMPS ????

lumayan sii utuk pembuka cerita, kalau cari playtime panjang kayaknya nggak soalnya gw 20jam an aja uda tamat 100% cukup seru juga walau gameplaynya beda dari game utamanya terus kalo udah tamat jadi gampang banget nahhh beli ini sih soalnya savegamenya bisa kepake di game utamanya hehe

Just writing this review to get my Stamp! Its a fun side scroller, albeit filled to the brim with fetch quests.. repetitive fetch quests. Its not all bad though, there's some charm to them IF you read the dialogue that is. A prime example of one is the girl's diary ones, as you find out why it gets stolen in the first place. If you want to get all achievements, it'll be around 27 hours to do so if you take your time like me. Less or more depending on how well you can traverse the map and use the fast travel system. As others have stated there is satisfaction to be had by building up the town and the music will change as you progress, though imo i prefer the starting town music over the final one.

this is a really solid side scroller, and also the first side scroller ive ever beaten. 2d games have never been my thing, they just feel like they lack exploration compared to 3d games which are all i played as a kid during the ps2 generation. the story is fun, but honestly gets convoluted and has very long cutscenes that just consist of reading a lot of character dialogue. just a dump of info containing politics and history. the gameplay is flashy and satisfying, characters are fun and all have different movement. if you want to try and get into 2d action games this is a very solid start. its not super long, has a lot of side content which i did a lot of and then stopped doing as i got closer to the climax of the story, and isnt too hard either. in terms of performance it ran at a locked 170fps on my desktop pc, my monitor is 170hz which is why it capped out there. on my legion go s running steam OS officially, it runs fine. but after coming out of sleep mode the controller completely stopped working. so keep that in mind. this was also the out of box experience so for all i know that controller issue can be fixed with a proton version swap or something.
