Demonschool

TLDR; I recommend the game and want the devs to do another but the pacing is really bad leading to combat fatigue and uninteresting party members and world. I just want to preface this with how excited I was for this games release. I followed the devs on twitter and they made a pretty cool game. When this game dropped I came straight home from my afternoon class, bought it instantly, and hopped on stream. I also 100% the game and got all the achievements. The game starts off really strong. Faye is a fantastic designed character. The next couple party members you meet are super well designed and fun. I also really like that the whole cast are adults and the School they go to is a college (what we wish for with persona). You get to hang out with these people in persona fashion although time does not pass which is fine ! The town is pretty vibrant and npcs all have different dialogues they say throughout the day. There are activities you can do around town like fishing, cooking, karaoke, and beetle racing. The OST also is fantastic and some of the strongest songs are the vintage sounding tracks. The combat is like Into the Breach mixed with Persona cut ins and Toribash. When…

I really liked how Demon School feels like watching a horror anime from the late 90s or early 2000s..i’ve always been a horror fan so that whole atmosphere and style really clicked with me The characters have their own distinct identities and I really enjoyed how goofy and unserious they can be at times. It gives the game a nice balance instead of making everything feel constantly dark and heavy. The art style also fits everything really well and has a lot of personality There were definitely moments where the game felt a little slow and boring but somehow it always managed to pull me back in. You keep wanting to see what happens next and before you know it, youve ended up playing through the whole thing Overall it has that weird combination of creepy, nostalgic, goofy and charming

A really good strategy rpg with some of my favourite writing of games I rescently played. It has a couple flaws but not nearly enough to take away from the overal enjoyment, the only real complaint I have is the rng use in boss fights but thats definately a nitpick everything considered. Verdict: watch- i mean play it

Probably the only tactical turn based rpg that I've actually enjoyed, and I'll just get right into why that is: it's challenging but not punishing or grindy and it actually encourages experimentation. When it's your turn you can plan out what your team does while seeing what the outcome of each move will be before you confirm your turn and watching it all play out. Even better is that you can also undo any move you make while you're planning your turn so you have to freedom to try out a bunch of different ideas before locking it in. Still end up dying anyway? No problem, you can instantly re-try the fight with whatever combination of party members and equips are available to you and try something else if you have a new idea or see an enemies weakness you can exploit. On top of the gameplay being great the setting, aesthetics, and music all combine to make a unique vibe. Sure, you could point out some of their inspiration for these things but they really do a new spin on it it and truly make it their own thing. Also talk to every npc you can, some of them say some of the funniest ♥♥♥♥.
