The battle system.
That makes it sound like it's simply not a progression-based rogue, so instead of becoming more powerful (like Rogue Legacy, Dead Cells, Hades, etc) you just unlock options (like FTL, Into the Breach, arguably Enter the Gungeon, many traditional roguelikes, etc.).
My first party is currently working on the third world without any major issues. Aside from the starting 3, I picked up Aegis and Commando as I've gone along. It's just risk management, the game.
Can I kill the threats before they attack?
Can I stagger them?
Do I need to defend?
Though this thread has taught me a few things that clear up some minor confusion I had, i.e. the stagger count doesn't reset everyround. It only resets when it hits 0. In addition, I'm pushing them all the way into the next round's timer, so it may occasionally be worth using a bigger stagger so I can get more hits in before they activate next turn. It also may be worth setting up more stagger hits even after they break, so that their meter resets the next round.
That's a tricky one because he will reflect damage in the early turns, till he stops doing that, avoid going at him full force, just try to hold out focusing on defensive maneuvers and light attacks early on, then go to town once he stops reflecting damage.The tone of the script is very weird and I'm not a fan of some of the humor.
Did a run last night and finally got the third behemoth only to get utterly destroyed. I like the battle system but I don't think I like the overall package.
Definitely not a fan of the crazy slow overworld or the mess of a UI, but the game is very addicting otherwise.
Well, this pretty much killed any interest I had in the game. Can't stand that junk.I do have to mention the script is beyond terrible, I skip literally all of it. It's almost like Cosmic Star Heroine's taken to a really obnoxious extreme and the thing is the setting is pretty interesting so that was a missed opportunity. Every single line is some kind of Joss Whedonesque snappy quip, I can't think of anything worse to do to a script.
Thankfully there is an option to disable 99% of the dialogue so you never have to see it. It's a great game otherwise, I've actually gone back to it these last few days since the new update and just beat the first entropy level, I think I'm going to clear them all. The gameplay is just really good, I dropped a bunch of other games for this just cause it's such a joy to play.Well, this pretty much killed any interest I had in the game. Can't stand that junk.
