Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Video Review
Ойындар
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes reviewed on Xbox Series S, also available on PlayStation, PC, and Switch.
One you get past its slow start, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes mostly succeeds in weaving the stories of multiple countries and characters together into a sprawling epic. Its turn-based combat system operates smoothly, even if other modes like its strategy RPG battles can encourage simplistic strategies over critical thinking. And while collecting and experimenting with its titular hundred heroes can be entertaining, you won’t get to know the majority of them because of how much screen time they need to share with the rest of this bloated cast. Still, there’s plenty of satisfying side quests and castle building to fill in the gaps, which makes Hundred Heroes eventually feel worth the journey.

its a kickstarter game from the original creator of legendary Suikoden 1 and 2 Yohitaka Murayama, who tragicaly passed away just before the game release, it didnt have resource like other big company game, so its pretty impressive, so far im loving it, taking me back to my childhood, im giving it 8/10 ..., hope there will be eiyuden 2 with more budget and bigger team ...

@@jksanrio you know Kickstarter backers got it early right? It's entirely possible for several people to have beaten the game. So the skepticism is unwarranted and feminine.
The duel for the enemy next action to take is based on their dialogue, if their dialogue is tempting us to attack they will use counter, if their dialogue feel like they will attack, it's attack, is not chances, Suikoden also like that.

the early backtracking is not that bad you can put in low level characters into the party and level them on the way back its worth even if they arent your main party since they determine the strength of your field army if you are a fan of Fire Emblem you should give this one a chance

3 Minutes into the video and your critics are: 1) Slow start because the story is actually told properly 2) You sometimes have to think for yourself about what you have to do 3) You have to actually play the game for a while before being able to fast travel (The map up to this point isn't even big)

Suikoden 2 is my all time favorite rpg, loving Eiyuden so far!
The soundtrack and voice acting in this game are amazing!! for me is 8.5 minimum and 9 maximum
Did the reviewer not play any suikoden games where this is clearly inspired by? Suikoden 1/2 are very close to this and are very much loved.
It makes me really sad that this review references Pokemon several times and there isn't a single mention of Suikoden. Surely SOMEBODY at IGN has played a Suikoden game?! You've got to have somebody over age 20 over there, right?
This is much more like sequel to Suikoden 2 ❤

Attention all RPG game lovers! It's time to demand better reviews from IGN for RPG games. A true RPG game is all about exploring, discovering yourself, figuring out the best team and tactics for your party. The games from the Final Fantasy series in the 90s and early 2000s were challenging and exciting, providing gamers with a sense of accomplishment upon completion. Nowadays, RPG games have become too easy and unchallenging, losing their charm and originality. It's time for game developers to take inspiration from the early RPG games and bring back the excitement of exploring the unknown world and solving mysteries, like in the classic Pokemon games. Traditional RPG games should be designed to keep you engaged for hundreds of hours without finishing the game within just 30 hours. Let's demand better RPG games, ones that are truly challenging and engaging, and let's make sure IGN's reviewers are up to the task of evaluating them accurately.
It's so obvious that this game was heavily inspired by Suikoden but the guy reviewing it doesn't seem to realise that lol

love the game! but... no protagonists true runes or special lenses (or legendary power) is sad. soul-eater and bright shield runes were one of the things that made suikoden what it was meanwhile this game has lots of similarities from suikoden, but it manages to ignore or miss the one most important aspect of the game which are the ultimate powers.
