Before coming here I was wondering how I could express my displeasure with this sequel, but then I decide to just say, censored, poor performance, bad characters and 2010 graphics.
This game was a huge disappointment, really, I knew things were bad when I first seen the gameplay videos, but the real product is even worse. The bland character designs, the greyish and uninteresting world, the anti-insomnia story, the stingy rewards... The game is basically spam the same attack, wait for something special to pop on your screen, interact with it and repeat.. a huge hand holding game, perfect for mobile players..
DLC and Greed Simulator, excessive and predatory pricing for characters and skin.. when you have it, because the game doesn't receive an update since october'25.
I really don't know what to expect from this, they spent years making this game, to deliver a final product that looks like made in a year. Floaty combat, excessive visual pollution, mostly of the characters are unappealing, protagonist design is so cringe and it's VA is breathless. A really let down for a game that made 15 million pre registrations..
They threw away a gaming icon that Ryu was, to make Yakumo, a random emo shounen boy instead... really? Also, where are the other characters? What you people did with Ayane design?
Very nice game, runs well on PC, but have some questionable design choices, like exploration is usually not rewarded, lack of new things like customization, map design outside the cities is dull, lack of new variety on attacks and arts, and specially the localization quality, it's better than Daybreak by a landslide, there is no censor on it, however some things like "sus" is extremely bad taste.
Abhorrent performance, not only thanks for UE5 crap engine, but also for Konami lack of effort and ethics when delivering under tested product, also, in top of that the game is censored. Refunded.
Played till level 35 chapter 4 or 5.. Good things are, good character design despite the loud minority crying as usual. But it's just that, I noticed an awful localization quality, and jesus, a lot of filler on the main story, and the lack of QoL takes a huge toll on this game, like from navigating through side quests and menus, to quicktravel, slow walk, and immovable frames of animation. Also, even after changing the difficult to easy, the battles consume a huge amount of time, and to conclude, the RPG aspect of this game is pathetic to non-existent. I really want to play this game, but I guess I need some time off it.
Terrible animations thanks to the devs releasing this on phones, also, the game introduced some pretty low IQ mechanics to make some fights artificially difficult, almost as if they were predadory.
There is a wide range of problems with this game. First of them is the AAA pricing for a game that delivers an underwhelming experience from the PS4 era (Granblue Relink graphics are the bare minimum for games in 2025!), from repetitive and uninspiring gameplay to outdated and ugly graphics; second point are the characters, none of them are interesting with exception of Yumia; and third one are the stiff animations, look at the bike, how a game that asks for an AAA price, can deliver an animation that looks like a png picture moving? Forth, are the lack of free skins, KoeiTecmo holds everything for a DLC you cant unlock anything playing when talking about customization; lastly the soft censoring, like forcing the character to weird poses just to avoid something, making everything unnatural. Conclusion is, wait for a good deal, this is worth 50 dollars at most, I got so disappointed with this game..

As usual, terrible performance and on top of the pile of s*** Capcom recommends the use of frame generation to run a game with graphics from recycled from PS4 era, this is peak laziness and disrespect. Also they made a lot of ugly NPCs, that kid is so annoying. My last time buying a Monster Hunter game.
Great game, however there are some problems within, the first is, if you don't play it with friends, it gets boring too fast. The second problem is the fact that there's nothing to do in the game, everything is exact the same repetitive gameplay, there isn't a sense of progression, the major orders worse the problem, by "forcing" you to have to play against the same enemy again and again, and lastly, the Performance is terrible CPU is totally stressed at 100%.
Well, this game is on a sad state right now, and despite the good things that they made on the first one and even carried out on this sequel, like the combat gameplay, the graphics are still underwhelming and the localization unexpectedly became low quality, it's hard to play a game where you listen to someone say X on japanese, and the subtitles say Y. Those two problems alone make me reevaluate buying future NIS America games.
Pretty solid game, despite beign too short, could have been a huge diablo competitor in endgame stuff if the game wasn't abandoned too soon. Bad things about this game is, the customization and repetitive stuff
Bandai won't learn..! - The only thing good about this game, is the the gameplay combat, hugely enhanced from the last game, but that's it. - They keep going with the 10 seconds gameplay, then 30 seconds yapping. - The maps are small, and aren't even good. - Kirito is still aannoying character. - Performance on PC is good as long you don't put graphics on Very High. - The same problem from the last game, 100% of GPU use at the Main Menu. - Party is too big with 4 characters, too much visual pollution, also the use o Kirito on the party is mandatory, and once again, you can swap to just one character besides having 4 characters on the party.
Sword Art Online: Cutscene Yapping. Who had the brilliant idea of making a Visual Novel inside an Action-RPG game? Jesus Christ, you play 3 minutes an get stuck with 5 minutes of non sense yapping.. jesus!
Very good game with a kinda sad ending, unfortunately there are some problems with gameplay, like not beign able to cancel attacks, also secondary characters are too bland
Pretty good game, however beign a game made for Nintendo, took a toil.. I took 39 hours to finish the Edelgard route, and I am not even interested on the other routes, at least not while this game is still on Switch. The Ending was lackluster, no answers at all, whole story was somewhat lacking, even the romance is weird at end the MC just *here take this ring like a piece of bread* and this is it, not even a hug or brush.. I loved the strategy and game setting, however the schedule was quite annoying, liked the characters, but this game needed more time.. shame on Nintendo.
Pretty mid game, you will like if you love to scroll huge lists of items, without an useful filter or sorting tool. Also, story is boring, RPG aspects are non-existent and animations are weird, no customization of the characters, but d4mn, you can customize the roof of the atelier, meanwhile the skins are behind paywall, and they aren't even good. Map exploration and resource gathering is a dire task.. The good thing is the crafting and this it.. and people complaining about the "sexualization" are losers.. Ryza is kinda left behind by her friends at the end of the story. LMAO.
Price too high, localization weird, sad to know a game that I played years ago, was censored to please an audience that doesn't spend a penny on the game.
Is this a game, or a piece of propaganda? Where's the gameplay and emotional story? Not disappointed since I was expecting to be let down, specially after True Colors, but this was a new low
Good game, but some designs choices were too stupid. -Worthless animations to cross narrow pass, just to waste your time. -There is an imbalance between gameplay and cutscenes/conversation.
-Some fights are poorly designed, to the point that you aren't able to even see the character in some engagements.
-Story is lackluster with a lot of filler, nothing made my eyes shine.
-After Aerith is taken away, till the end of Chapter 14, story is terrible and dragging. -Stupid achievements behind Hard Mode.. wtf
-Terrible English localization!
I was expecting this game for a long time, and got disappointed hard, it's very mid, literally a reskin from Persona 5, and in top of it, the game was problems, like: Performance is nauseating;
UI is not bad, but not pleasant either;
Localization is terrible, will need a modfix for that alone;
Pricing is absurd;
Plays just like Persona 5, but in a different setting and aesthetic;
This game was a huge disappointment. They did great with map design, some characters and with some aspects of combat gameplay, however they did fail extraordinarily when they choose to limit your play with others servants through the **** you are coming from Fate/Extella you expect beign able to play with different servants, however on this game, you are stuck with Saber, and even thou you are going to play with the master, rather than the servant, for most of the time. The characters are well designed when talking about art and style, however what the F they did with Saber? Its so boring and lifeless design and personality.. look at Musashi and Jeanne.. you literally get envious from the other masters.. Its worthy note too, that the gender ambiguity on this game is excessive, I understand that Fate series always have one or another character with undefined gender, but in this game it's annoying, all characters that look like male, are male, meanwhile characters that appear to be female might be or might be not female, for instance, Saber, Archer, Yui and others.. are this game trying to cater the "modern audience" ? Really, they did poorly decisions on this game, I am scared of Fate/Extra now, because as is in this game which they can't forget about Fate/Stay, the 2025 game will be the same ****

Another piece of garbage, worsened by Amazon. Not only the game is poorly optimized, but lacks in novelty and identity. Animations made on a powerpoint presentation. Customization is terrible, basically can't change anything from the body. And obviously, Amazon censor to complete the whole circus.
The game basically ignored the male audience, the audience that made this game famous and successful, to try to please an audience that don't spend a cent in the game. They keep pushing a lot of male characters, that always are unappealing and or with weird feminine designs, and the female characters are always wearing some kind of cape to hide their "attributes", or are just recolor of something released before. Do you wanna characters like Eula, Mona and Ganyu? Forget it. This game looks like a big character collection, because there is nothing to do, PvE is just the boring Abyss and Theater. The only way to play this game is using a Dialogue Skipper, because besides the main quest, everything else is irrelevant and lacking, and even if they weren't in rare cases, they will basically be forgotten, cuz hoyo will never expand or revisit those stories, why waste time thou? Natlan design suffers from what happened with Sumeru, too colorful, too much visual pollution.
I going to be honest, the game looks ok, but the animations are pure dumpster fire.. did we returned to 2010 ? Also, the combat is so dull and brainless.. The character customization is terrible, who had the idea of using a side pigtail on a male character? 2022 game with literally no DUBBING.. Where is the RPG???? Why charge so high on this garbage?? Another game ruined by **** Enix..

Tried to play it, because people told me that it was almost a masterpiece.., tried to play 5 chapters, but it is impossible, so slow paced, the story is literally random, the characters all seeing lacking something...
The worst of the series, not bad, but when compared with P3 and P5, you can clearly see the difference. The game was made in just 18 months, clearly not enough to make a deep and interesting game like the others, the characters were absolute underdeveloped and some even fully garbage . However, the ambience on which the game is set, is one of the best, the suspense is huge, sad that it was **** annoying
Added a huge amount of new things and freedom, however, the story of the game is rushed after the second/third palace. The first palace really hook me up on the game, the second one was a huge what the f*ck ? The ending was very boring and lackluster, clearly not in the level of Persona 3R.
Game that is much more superior than Persona 5. Has a deep and touching story, meaningful. Gameplay is also top tier. However as this is a old game, the short and undeveloped stories of some characters made it feel superficial.
I was liking the game but.. This game is the life proof that Nintendo does not test its games. I literally dropped the game after 14 hours due to the dumb horse riding controls, literally how can you release a HD version of the game where you mess with the controls and does not test it? F Nintendo!
