The plot is… not amazing. You play as a freshly recruited no-name mercenary getting dragged along by your boss on the never-ending quest to find the culprits of ‘The Shattering’, a rather catastrophic albeit cool event the crew & you just happened to witness then survive. Thus begins your career. Voice acting is great for […]

Starting off the game greets you with a nice looking menu & awesome music, but at the same time, it hits you with its inverted menu controls. A minor but annoying quirk. That aside, you’ve got your standard SHUMP choices of Arcade, Boss Rush, Hard Core & Novice gameplay modes. Arcade & Boss Rush are

You’ve got your standard light, heavy & air attacks as well as special moves & the tag unlocked early on the chapters. Needless to say, it does it well enough that it spawned a franchise despite its fanservice nature. Typical gameplay

Much like the older entries this one is also turn-based & challenging to boot. Mixing things up is the addition of a row for your summons, up to 3 of them, which a few classes take advantage of. For example, the Necromancer can raise wraiths & use them as fuel for their abilities or the

Another thing that you may notice upon booting up the game is the distorted audio with an absurdly annoying popping sound and a two-second delay it takes to actually play them after you complete an action. It is really bad and was a persistent issue across all four of my PC’s that I’ve tested this
