Sea of Stars: Sunset Edition

Yes

I HATE JRPGs.... but I freakin' love this game. Action commands. No grinding necessary. Killer presentation and soundtrack. Just incredibly solid, through and through.

I disagree with the negative reviews. I think the issue is that a lot of people had too high expectations. From what I learned, having high expectations that is ALWAYS going to make the game a disappointment. That’s what made me so disappointed in Chrono Trigger ironically enough. I will admit I have not finished the story as of now but I will say this: I love the combat and the characters. The combat is no joke and you can easily lose if you do not strategize well enough. That, to me, is what makes winning these battles so rewarding. There have been many times I just NARROWLY escaped losing a battle. It’s exhilarating, and easily what I love the most about this game. Admittedly, I’m one of those people that cares more about the gameplay than the story. But so far? I like it. It’s nothing crazy, nothing like say, Xenoblade Chronicles (my favorite rpg of all time), but there are definitely some moments that keep me interested in how things are going to end up. Overall, I’m having fun. And that’s all that matters to me.

Sea of stars is a very cool game. The characters are very charismatic and fun to see grow (especially Garl) The artstyle is beautiful, especially the animated cutscenes and the giant structures in the background. The story is what you would expect from an RPG, choosen heroes save the world but it does have some interesting differences like Garl being a powerless human and still helping (can you tell I liked Garl?) or the way it talks about choosen heroes that didn't want to be choosen heroes. The combat is interesting using times hits to make turn based combat more exciting. Lastly the puzzles and little "enigmas" of the game were something that I really liked, the solistice shrines, the way you unlock some extra content. Overall cool game, you might think it will end soon but it won't and then when it ends there's actually more to do.

Sea of Stars é um excelente RPG por turnos inspirado em clássicos como Chrono Trigger. Seus maiores destaques são a pixel art belíssima, trilha sonora, exploração divertida e combate interativo, que exige timing nos ataques e estratégia para interromper golpes inimigos. A história é boa e possui momentos emocionantes, com personagens secundários como Garl se destacando bastante. Em contrapartida, a narrativa às vezes é simples, e o combate pode ficar um pouco repetitivo pela quantidade limitada de habilidades. Pontos fortes: visual, música, exploração e combate. Pontos fracos: progressão simples e certa repetição.

Arte linda, áudio incrível e gameplay que, de certa forma, tem um ótimo ritmo. Um jogo simplesmente excelente.

The closest game to Chrono Trigger out there. The game is all around good. Not timing defenses can be a bit punishing sometimes but I was able to get used to it. High recommendation for turned based RPG players. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☑ Beautiful ☐ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't Puzzles and abilities made it even better. ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☑ Very good ☐ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☑ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☐ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☐ Potato ☑ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☑ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 15% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☑ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☐ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☑ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☐ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☐ Good ☑ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☑ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond - Longer than expected for the price. ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☑ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☐ Never heard of ☑ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☑ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10
