hey, great video love how in depth you can go in your review but if i can offer you one minor correction: in the vault of time doesnt offer stronger enemies from outside the main game, it offers enemies that you encounter later in the story at an earlier point

Hey, this was a really helpful review. A friend referred me here to scope out this game, and this video has done nearly all the legwork needed to move me to pick up the game. As a jRPG fan, I've seen a lot of poorly done jRPG reviews done by people who really aren't looking for the same things I look for in a jRPG (in other words, people who just don't really get jRPGs). It's nice to get a proper look at the game with apt comparisons and a trustworthy assessment

I just finished this one a few days ago so the experience is pretty fresh. I had a very enjoyable time with the game and I thought it was good but I don't rate it nearly as high as you do. You say time travel is much deeper in RH than CT, and that is true - but it's also much messier. There are holes throughout the plot, universe mechanics that are vague/don't make sense and only happen to advance the plot, and very little establishment of genuine rules that didn't feel like extreme logic reaches for player progression. It was contrived and dragged the experience down. Battle system was tons of fun. I loved the visuals. Voice acting was solid. Characters were nothing masterful but they were good. Music was amazing, but I wish there were more tracks - It got pretty damn repetitive. The political maneuvering and plot dynamics were really cool and I enjoyed that aspect a lot, but the setting was far too small to support the epic scale of the story it contains. Settlements were too small and there's far too much retreading the same areas. Not only did it get stale, but we needed a bigger region to explore to be consistent with the story's vastness, without doubt. True ending of the remake was way too left-field, happy, and tacky, not a good conclusion. Overall, while good, I wouldn't say that it measures up to the better JRPGs ever as you said but nice that you enjoyed it so much.

My only criticism with the spritework of either version is that Stocke's shield is always facing the screen, regardless of the direction he's facing. My only criticism with the 3DS art style is that they locked the original behind a paywall (Granted, it's only a dollar, so it's not a huge deal) when it could have just been a basic option in the options menu. Other than those two relatively small things, I love this game! I've only played the demo of the remake, but I do plan on buying it outright eventually.

You can't put a review together better than what you just did. Radiant Historia is an absolute masterpiece for anyone who is interested in diving into an epic story, epic gameplay, and just plain "I can't put this down!". I really like the comparison you gave with quite possibly my favorite rpg of all time (Chrono Trigger). Although both are different on the larger scale of things, they do share some of the smaller details that make them both gems. Hopefully the developers of RH will have better luck with a sequel than the developers that tried to make stand alone games revolving around CT (I can't call them sequels because...well...their not sequels). The switch deserves to be the next candidate for a whole new story to this great game!

I loved this game and I have very little complaints, but if I had to list them: - some characters should have portraits. (An example (SPOILER ALERT) Liese's boyfriend, Palomides) It's hard to care about characters without said portraits if most major characters have these. - I wish thaumatech was more elaborated on, like how it's used for civilian uses. - it's nitpicky, but I wish we got to fight a few antagonists we don't get a chance to. (I mean mostly Count Sylvan and Dias.) - NPCs should've gotten full voice acting in the cutscenes. I don't mind them not having the VA while asking them around in towns, but it was way too jarring in cutscenes. As for the artwork complaints... to be honest, i don't really like the original artwork. In my opinion only Raynie looked better. (No, I don't like Eruca's original design, but I'm not a fan of short hair in general so there' sthat.) Gam could possibly be harder on the hard mode., although I appreciate I didn't have to grind. (I prefer when the game's difficulty makes you think your choices carefully, not grind like crazy.)

That's a common issue with most RPG/JRPGs though right? It's really hard to make every character equally useful without just giving you the freedom to make them copies of each other like FFVI (and even in that game there are some characters that you just don't use except for the multiparty dungeons). Spoilers below: - - - I do think some characters like Rosch though not only are less than useful and fall behind in leveling, I think mechanics like the vault of time were intended to mitigate that but it didn't too much and that's very much something that could be easily fixed with some story tweaks but the rest of your party has clear utility that they're pretty solid at, and Aht is OP as fuck. However this just seems to be something that happens when you have clearly defined roles and mechanics for characters in an RPG, it's part of metagaming
@fujinyumi5632
5 жыл бұрын
Jhon I feel like you can come up with a strategy for most combinations of characters though. Other than Rosch I found all the characters to have some gimmick that made them useful. Stocke: can attack physically and magically and can heal. He can also move people in all directions except forward. Raynie: can use all magical tomes and can still attack physically Marco: can heal and can buff your party and debuff enemies. Can also move enemies forward. Rosch: well, I guess his gimmick is that he attacks a lot of enemies at once at low damage? But I didn’t find it that useful and thought he was outclassed by gafka and stocke. He can move enemies forward tho. Aht: can set traps and is a good healer. Gafka: major strength and can attack multiple enemies at once. Can also move enemies forward. Eruca: lots of magic. Can obliterate a lot of foes. Basically the game has a lot of room for strategization. You can make almost any team work if you use them properly. As long as you keep your units evenly leveled.

So you should be able to easily understand why I didn't enjoy it. Completely out of the blue. I honestly hated that scene. I was so into the story, that seeing it pissed me off.
