Not a fan of tutorials and all that slow handholding shit but it gets pretty good after all that. Not a fan of input-bonuses though but it's not mandatory. Def has traces of Chrono Trigger and SNES RPGs here and there.

Just finished it this morning, it was pretty good. A little easy for the most part, especially once you have those 3 attacks that can delay the enemy's turn, but it was really enjoyable and definitely scratched that JRPG itch.

It's an ok game, nothing like what it was being hyped about being the next Chrono Trigger.

Great game. I unlocked all the endings and obtained all of the achievements except the one that requires a New Game+ playthrough. Amazing soundtrack and visuals, but the combat was easy and the characters are a bit dull and boring.

Yeah it is pretty easy and straightforward but whether that's a detriment or not is left to whoever's feeling like taking on a breezy throwback RPG for once these days. --- New York Rangers [2004-2008] https://media.giphy.com/media/WvQHBYW0q4TuxdAg61/giphy.gif https://psnprofiles.com/Jaromiroquai68 ...

Is it considered better than Chained Echoes? Both are on Game Pass but I think Chained Echoes will probably get dropped off it soon.

Is it considered better than Chained Echoes? Both are on Game Pass but I think Chained Echoes will probably get dropped off it soon.Chained Echoes is a little divisive because of the Overheat mechanic. You have a bar when fighting enemies that goes up and down depending on how you fight, and if you're out of range you take more damage, but if you're in the sweet spot you do more. Many people hated the mechanic, but there's a difficult slider to make it more generous iirc. I liked Chained Echoes a lot. It's story punched pretty hard when it wanted to, and imo more often than SoS, but I wasn't as attached the characters. CE's characters hardly had any development, but the story went to some insane places. By comparison, SoS is more of a jaunty trip that slowly ramps up the excitement. I like both. They both do things strongly and in their own way. Neither really captures the story feel of Chrono Trigger though. Echoes is closer to Final Fantasy, and SoS is closer to Chrono Cross. I think if I had to choose one over the over. I'd choose Sea of Stars. --- Others don't get to dictate what's normal and what isn't. It's something we decide for ourselves. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Overdrive is the absolute worst part of Chained Echoes and why I won't replay it.

I didn't mind overdrive THAT much in Chained Echoes and thought it was interesting, but it could be frustrating and lead to some "pick your poison" situations where you either heal and put yourself in the red or don't heal to not lower your defense but have lower HP. What I REALLY didn't like though was the mech combat, and the story started going in awkward directions. I was liking Chained Echoes quite a bit during its first part, but found myself losing interesting and slogging to finish it from the second part onward. As for Sea of Stars, I'm still in the middle of. So far its been pretty good and will hopefully not fall off (I've gotten as far as ... Copied to Clipboard!

I liked the over drive mechanic it was used in some very creative ways in Chained Echoes too. Thought most of the characters were great and had good development.
Once I beat the main story I was done with it though I really do feel like a lot of the secret battles and other things I really just left behind and should go back to someday. I almost beat one if them I think hah I haven't played Sea of Stars, maybe someday. --- "A lesser talent couldn't have pulled it off. But I'm willing to bet on BoJack Horseman.

Uta 09/21/23 11:41:56 PM #34: |
See what I mean? lol. I personally liked the Overdrive mechanic because it gave battles a sense of rhythm. Though it's definitely a divisive mechanic. Thankfully if you don't like it you can just make it super generous and then almost completely ignore the mechanic; since iirc that's the kind of game that offers several optional sliders instead of a single unified difficulty slide.

So far, while I'm not done with Sea of Stars, I prefer Chained Echoes much more. I didn't mind the Overdrive feature that much. And it wasn't too hard to master it. I don't think it was explained well enough in the game, maybe?
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/1/7/0/AAE14lAAE3Ui.jpg At any rate, while I 100%'d Chained Echoes, I doubt I'll do the same in Sea of Stars. It looks like it might need a NG+ to get everything done, but I'm trying not to spoil myself, so I don't know if that's true. But I started it after Googling and hearing that there was nothing really missable. That's how it should always be, in my opinion. --- I use Google... A lot.... >______> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Didn't figure out the other one yet, but I did find two others that I could solve.
