Good game. Little bit grindy but the community (at least my alliance) are very friendly and approachable that basically held my hand the whole experience. only reason I downvoted this game cause it's so good that two of my closest friends can't stop playing it and won't spend time with me anymore ;_;.

9/10 for gameplay
0/10 for killing gmod thursdays with the bois ;_;

Recently on spree of "why did I bought this game and why did I drop it?" and this one is on my library 3 years ago. Revisiting it made me instantly recognize the reason why 17 year old me was having none of this ♥♥♥♥.

GAMEPLAY: Game is as bland as it gets. You have just two attack patterns that you can mix up, the normal and break attacks. Forces which are the abilities of the characters are usually unmotivated as you are bound to stick to at least 4 of them because the other abilities are mediocre or borderline useless. Difficulty for this game is basically non-existent (i dunno about post game since I dropped the game at the end of chapter 5) since two of the characters that i have in the party is so good at healing that I never even bothered to block (except for the parry abilities). Party AI is so stupid that they would either a) do nothing and heal you. or b) suicide. This is somewhat mitigated since you can order them by using commands as a party or even individually. If the game offered a lot of AI customization like Tales of Series did, I would not have any problems with the Friendly AI. I was hoping that the songs like the B.A.N.D system would offer complexity in the gameplay since the game is selling out the fact that your characters are literally using weapons that can also function as instrument, but it turns out to be just another buff for the party that recharges over fighting. In other words, gameplay is so uninteresting and boring that I need to keep switching characters in between fights just to keep me entertained.

CHARACTERS: Nothing special here. It is full of generic characters that I didn't seem to care in any of them. That does not mean that it is bad, it's just.... you know.... uninteresting. Dragon design was admittedly the coolest thing in the game and female character models are pleasing to the eye ;). Probably the reason why me 3 years ago bought this game.

PLOT: SPOILER WARNING if you even care for the plot. MC basically a wuss Naruto with a philosophical 9-tails in his body. Man's escaped from an experiment lab and all that "horrifying experiments by the empire" has no impact since the MC does not have any character at all aside from having a powerful dragon inside him that he cannot control but he can also choose not to use. There's this character in Chapter 2 that Oneshots one of the Antagonist's little pet and here I thought "ey this thing's bout to get spicy". This said character proceeds into fighting you and you've been saved by another character named Agnum which looks badass with his axe guitar and I thought that he has a very good character introduction and I was anticipating that his personality would carry this ♥♥♥♥♥♥ plot for me. BUT AS SOON AS HE ENTERED INTO YOUR PARTY, ALL OF HIS BRAIN CELLS POPPED AND BECAME YET ANOTHER GENERIC CHARACTER. YOU THEN FIGHT ANOTHER ANTAGONIST WHICH SHOULD BE THE SAME POWER LEVEL AS THE GUY WHO ONE SHOTTED THE DRAGON. SO IF AGNUM CAN FEND OF JINAS (the one shot guy), SHOULD HE BE THE SAME LEVEL AS THIS GUY RIGHT??? RIGHT!?!??? Nope, Agnum's character has been successfully butchered into a generic one. . Pacing of the story is so slow that it neither gives a buildup to the story, nor made me care about the characters.

MC'S Party keeps falling on the same "trap" that the enemies "planned" which is basically lure them into an area where they will fight the boss. This happened for chapters 1-5 and I am so over it that I thought that watching Dora the Explorer is basically better at this point.

SOUNDTRACK: For a game that has a big chunk of plot about having 7 rare weapons that also acts as an instrument to resonate with the dragons, the game has a very limited soundtracks and it does not transition well in the cutscenes, making you feel you're watching a fanmade clip that is badly edited. Sounds are sometimes overlapping somehow which made me turn the sound, bgm, and voice volume to 1. However, some of the tracks are still decent and the way that the victory sound changes every time a person with Armonic is added to your party is pretty cool.

Summary:
GAMEPLAY: 5/10 not that bad but also giga boring.
CHARACTERS: 7/10 dragons and boobas.
PLOT: 2/10 I ain't religious but this story made me pray for my own sanity.
Soundtrack: 6/10 cutscenes feels like poorly edited Fanmade clips
Overall: 5/10 not a very good time.

Game play: Not that hard. Mechanic of the 2 characters are defined and I did not experience any bugs for the whole play-through. Though it sucks that there are no puzzles in this game, there are platforming stages that works well. The inspiration to hollow knight and undertale are apparent and I don't think the devs tried to hide it.
(specially that last boss)

Duration: Very short. I finished the game in 80 mins. But I left this game afk for approximately 30 mins cuz I was pooping.
when you get the dash ability, you can speedrun the game to the end. or at least that's what I did.
Plot: very simple which is to be expected in a game like this

Dialogue: ...

Audio: it aight, but I experienced a lot of audio bugs when I enter a boss room then the audio plays twice. The audio overlaps and it could get quite annoying.

Overall: a pretty solid game for the money I paid (I bought it 90% off C:). I wish the team that made this continues to work and improve.

For a guy who hates playing platformers, I must say that the breathtaking atmosphere, art design, and story made me play this game in one sitting. For those who wants to pick up this game, I suggest you go in blind and you won't regret it.

Every level design has so much care and love poured in it. this is not a game that was rushed for income, this is a game that want's to get a point across. No Dialogue needed and it still made me tear up and I don't even know why.

Gameplay: 9.5/10 (-0.5 cuz there is a level made me dizzy af)
Soundtrack: 10/10 (I could be horny as hell and play this banger to make me flaccid instantly)
Visual: Need I say more/10 (bruh)
Story: 10/10 (though I am not confident that I fully grasped its meaning)
Overall: 10/10 a must pick up game for people who wants to see art (12/10 if its on sale, I see you u cheap ♥♥♥ ;) )

Best game i played in 2019 so far. very simplistic combat system, yet it generates so many possibilities. story telling is great which makes you feel emotional for a character you've only known for 50 or more minutes.


The only negative about this game is that it ends in a cliffhanger,

10/10 too good for a F2P game. it has interesting plot too so play diz game rayt now
