This flower cannot bloom. A beautiful but ultimately shallow game
I thought Tower of fantasy was overwhelming with it's abundance of missions and, to a point it's freedom as that was a bad recipe for me who is a specific type of crazy. The type that would set his own trials and timer for completion on the way to doing a quest--I know it's a drag but hey, if I don't raise the the difficulty for myself, how am I to catch up to the P2W players in the game. This game took took a wild turn to the left of this kind of freedom by giving us a completely lateral game
That's not wrong you think...YOU CANT EVEN FAST TRAVEL ON COMMAND YOURSELF!
Dont get me wrong, this game has it's own spunk and I really love the expressive characters. Heaven knows I'm done with the lipless speech and weirdly placed expressions of characters from most mmorpgs but that isn't enough to make thIs a great game
Here's some of the pros and cons I was able to notice
👍 Pros:
○ Spoons, saucers and thumbs up for the character's reactions, facial expressions AND MOVING LIPS during dialog. All of the above mixed with it's light-novel-like interactive sequence and I actually found it pleasing
● It's internet connectivity was very good for me. Far better than that of Tower of fantasy--high ping was the main reason I deleted the game. I understand it has a far lower player base and that should have contributed to it, still the far better fluidity of combat based on lag time is amazing for me
○ This should Have been number 1 but I will add it here... It is a very easy to learn game and the combat is fluid. It needs bigger attack buttons but is regardless, fun
● The storyline and gameplay is simple and straightforward. It won't be hard for anyone to understand what's going on and then get into it
○ The floriography provided in game is a nice touch for picking up the ladies and thats a plus for me
I have been gentle so far but now we are getting into the cons. MUAAHAHAHAHAH...*coughs*
👎 Cons:
○ This game doesnt feel innovative at all. It feels more like something to be played before a better game comes out instead of being a really good unique game
● The storyline and hence, gameplay, is soooooo lateral it couldn't have been more straight if someone had threatened it with a knife. With the lack of suitable side quests, the small world and lack of storied side-quest enemies to wank on for exp and resources, the openworld aspects of the game feels as non existent as Johnny Sins hair
○ Mobs respawn when killed almost instantly as they are not dispersed across the map as a troubled land should be which means that for players to fulfill certain missions there's only one place to go and that's not alluring. Infact, it breaks one' suspension of disbelief and also makes there be no reason for this game to be openworld
● There's no reward for going your path so you'd mostly forget this game was openworld and just play on because you like it--that's if you do
○ Everything is level locked. One thing that makes online games so interesting is being able to decide for yourself when to attack a stronger boss. Figuring out the absolute minimum value for attacking a boss fight is one of the fun parts of gaming. As a self respecting gamer, I'd like to say that babying everyone can lead to frowns and I personally scowled
● Game ost being lovely during a scary and serious occasion makes me wanna slap someone. At least get that part right
○ Like a very pretty lady with no soul but an endless hunger for one's money is this game with it's alluring "boob-traps", and customization. Remove those from the game and...
After playing this,, I'll say this game would have been been great. Shallow vision and money grabbing has made this yet another generic anime styled money-drinker.
Thanks for your time and patience with this scatter-brained write up. In the end playing this game or not is up to you. This is just my honest opinion 😇✌
