Love n War: Hero by Chance II

This game has improved significantly compared to the two previous games under the same developer, unfortunately I still cannot recommend it. The adult portion of the game is still below average. The art quality is inconsistent and all characters are shaking meaninglessly all the time. I almost thought they are living in a world with persistent earthquakes. If AI is the benchmark for adult contents, this game is clearly below. There are many battles in the game, very repetitive with little varieties. Although many possible combinations of units, heroes and passive heroes are available, there isn't really any real strategies needed here. Just keep building units countering enemy units and you can win the battle easily. It gets boring really fast. The story line is also quite depressing. You seem to be offered with a choice, and in the end it's a dead end. So you effectively have no choice at all. The MC is basically being driven around by all the enemies and ladies like a puppet. Achievements in the game are mostly straigntforward, but you need to grind the arena level 100 for all achievements. If you don't get enough battle cards along the way, you can reset t…

[h3]Above & Beyond RTS-Lite, an Outstanding Effort. Recommended 9/10[/h3] [hr][/hr] [h3]What’s Excellent[/h3] [list] [*]Significantly improved building, upgrading, crafting mechanics [*]Includes dating sim elements that directly impact units [*]Expanded lore, continuity and a story with foreshadowing, twists, betrayal & manipulation [*]Casts have depth, believable motivations as well as distinct & likeable personalities [/list] [h3]What’s Good[/h3] [list] [*]Immersive sound design and voice-acting [*]Key Background Illustrations are beautifully drawn [*]Campaigns are long with even more content available in the DLC [/list] [h3]What’s Not[/h3] [list] [*]Spicy Content is downgraded from the previous 2 Love N War entries. [*]While more lore is good, there is too much fluff that could be edited. [*]Grinding is a requirement and inescapable. [/list] [hr][/hr] If you did like the first Hero By Chance (HBC1) as well as Warlord By Chance(WBC1) then you can rest assured that Hero By Chance 2 (HBC2) is quite simply, bigger and better than the first one in almost every single way. Building upon their Suikoden-style, lightweight Real Time Strategy, back are the Army Ba…

Lots of clicking! The game mechanics are fine, but the art and difficulty earning battle cards and the intermittent glitches ultimately make it not worth it.

Well, ONE thing you gotta give to this game is that its bigger than LnWHbC1, and by that, i mean BLOATED. Players of the previous game will remember its simplicity, maybe some of its story. Well, its clear that when developing the sequel, they went for quantity rather than quality. 1- more kinds of units, all upgradable (with money) and with 3 to 4 equipment slots 2- 4 generals to every battle, with a roster of general WAAAAAAY bigger than 4, all upgradable (with money) and with 3 equipment slots. They all have a global skill for when they are not directly in battle, and one frontline skill for when they are 3- Buffs in the form heros you dont deploy in battle, you just bring 3 to every battle, from a BIIIIIIIG roster all of them upgradable (with money) 4- an upgradable castle, the level of which is upgraded with money and you are allowed to upgrade it only so far as YOUR level currently allows you 5- a level based crafting system whih requires money and materials 6- gem sockets for equipment which require money and materials 7- as you can probably guess, the game is GRINDY AF, for which you are allowed to replay every battle over and over and over again 8- along wit…

Best game in the franchise for sure. The devs just keep improving on the formula. Good H scenes too
