Tales of Seikyu

Great until it wasn't. Initially I was having a ton of fun, but there are serious bugs with questlines that have made the game borderline unplayable. My chief complaint is that quests get locked for no apparent reason due to characters being in unreachable places. I wanted to romance Nyotengu and was attempting to turn in a quest that would have netted me 300 gold and 50 affinity points. However, she stayed shut-in her house for days (she has not left as of the time I put the game down) and my ability to redeem the reward timed out! I tried entering her house to redeem them but I was told our relationship wasn't strong enough for me to do so. I completely missed out on rewards I was entitled to. Then Yohji was in the fox temple, which I cannot access due to the weapon I need not being available at my stage of gameplay, which meant I stood to lose 1500 GOLD and affinity points. I'm so pissed and I can't even get my money back. This could have been one of my favorite games if not for this glaring problem.

So far I'm still in very early game so take my review with a grain of salt. I only have 10 hours play time currently. So far I enjoy it greatly, I like the characters, the art style is cute, and the scenery is wonderfully modeled. I do have one teensy issue with the main characters model, when you play as a girl and wear a pony tail, when you sprint, the pony tail will go through the front of the model and gets stuck there, and it looks very jank and only turns back to normal if you attempt to straighten it out with intentionally running the other way for a few seconds. Not that big of a deal but it gets annoying to have to straighten out the ponytail regularly. I will also say there is alot of fishing quests in the early game, but actually getting the fish you need can be a pain (I am so unlucky in that regard) so be prepared for that. I like the story ALOT actually and am interested to see where it is going. The combat in this game is pretty easy tbh I may turn up the difficulty, unless the enemies are alot higher level than you, its a cake walk most the time, the combat is actually quite fun in spite of this though, and Id recommend just saving up to get a good weapon from haeph…

IF you have the chance to buy it... Do it! I'm loving it so far, it´s a cute game and it does not feel too heavy!

its such a fun and cute game🥰 I'm so happy to have stuck around since the beginning! my favorite game genre and my favorite Shinto deity in 1 game. I feel spoiled😊

So far from what I have had a chance to play I've enjoyed it. It kind of reminds me of Stardew Valley and Sunny Side.

I have only a few hours so far into this review (5hrs) but so far this world is full of magic and mystery. The characters are also very cute and have their own personalities that make the world seem that much more immersive. If you like any Harvest moon, Story of Seasons, Starsand Island, Song of the Prairie type of games, this one is also for you!
