    I really love the game and it’s aspects too. Excellent work, very surprised to see that level of quality in such a small channel - keep up the good work.

    For me personally, I think the story is clear and simple. Objectives are clear. Lots of character interactions. Combat can get easy but it was fun scrapping builds and trial and error new comps. I absolutely loved this game!

    Totally agree with the combat! My favourite part was building units, not necessarily the fighting itself.

    I looked into Princess Crown! While it is 2D, it lacks the “painterly” art style that I was referencing. I would still like to play it one day to see Vanillaware’s true roots!

    Will say about the localization and personality thing; Played whole game from English on Expert, now relaying the game again on True Zenoiran with Japanese, from their voice and delivery of dialogue, it does seem like they changed some dynamics and personality of characters. Like Lex and Chloe reference each other when they level up. Chloe and Monica seemingly changed personalities (Chloe being a bit tomboyish in EN but girlier in JP and Monica being more prideful in EN but softer in JP.). I don't know Japanese, so I don't know what they're actually saying, but just from how they speak alone seems to be a personality change. I don't doubt they change some of the endings either considering some endings like the angels pretty much say "We will be married" in their marriage proposals (Rite scene) but in their endings they flat out just don't marry and prioritize Scarlet. This isn't anything on the game ofc, it's still a very fun game (Hence I'm replaying it.). It just feels a bit off thinking/feeling (Not "knowing".) that some things are changed from what the JP intended.

    Had to force myself to stop playing in order to have lunch! It’s like they put a bunch of SRPGs together and in turn created something entirely new.. The gameplay is most reminiscent of Fire Emblem tho.. What I like about it although I’m only like 12 hrs in is it’s very challenging but seems to be forgiving at the same time .. IDK if it’s the best of the genre but it appears pretty damn close

    No it's so easy to win and damage check. They said they ran out of money so it makes sense that all the enemies use basic equipment and basic ai. I put it down after the desert fight cause i got over leved defeating the infinite units with ease, i used the trebuchet once and gained so many level then immedietly stopped using it. Doubt ill pick it up again unless they have an update for it. The most fun I had was after that fight I chose to hire units slightly under leveled untill I reached a point where main quest is above my lvl. I used no uniques and it was a fun challenge. Unfortunately I didn't buy the game to not use main characters and miss dialogue. So I dropped it after that. What happened to games especially strategy being challenging? I'd rather play total Warhammer 2 than breeze through this game.

    @@Jabberwokee played on expert while limiting myself in many ways because otherwise it's too easy. Ppl who are critical have talked about the difficulty of TZ. It's a fact that the player has lots of advantages while the enemies have little to none. If they just made fights better with slight ai change but most important equipment changes then the game would be a lot better.
