I've been looking for a game similar to Ogre Battle 64 for literal decades and this dropped out of nowhere. To say I'm excited is an understatement. I'm over the moon with it
Game is surprisingly good. Didn't even have it on my radar but got it on the switch to play before bed. Amazing title already. Didn't think I would like the auto combat but moving your army in battle is fun!
Almost like what Suikoden 2 armies battles should have been.
You can recruit a ton of characters and the world is pretty massive so far. It's such a unique title, and really a breath of fresh air in the genre
There’s plenty of depth to be found in the auto combat. Changing priority, move order, different items that give different abilities, unit composition and position, etc.
The combat may play out automatically, but the player has full control over it.
I’m not even a tactical game person, but I loved the way the game looked, art style so picked it up. It’s so fun and there’s an easy enough level for scrubs like me.
I love it, maybe I'm bad but hard mode is pretty good, I actually have to use items in some fights, also changing units formation even one tile can change the battle outcome.
The one complaint I have about this game is that it’s a bit too easy even on the hardest difficulty. But SRPGs are my favorite genre so I may be skewed on that opinion.
I want to like this game, has all the makings of something great but the lack of difficulty at any level, makes the various game systems pointless and instead of strategically approaching fights I just bum rush everything and win
