Ragna Maya

Скорее нет, чем да. Игровой процесс характеризуется наличием системы крафта и прокачки, которая отличается высокой степенью детализации и вариативности. Прокачка персонажа включает в себя широкий спектр характеристик, влияющих на параметры защиты и урона. Однако, именно система обучения и подсказок просто перенасыщают игру и отвлекают больше от игрового процесса. Иногда даже выходит так, что тебя ознакомили с механикой боя с монстром, но ты его побеждаешь совершенно по-другому, а то и вовсе случайно. Да что уж там, даже чтобы открыть сундук, вам расскажут как это делается... К тому же вся эта тонна текста исключительно на английском языке, что ещё больше затрудняет вовлечение в игровой процесс. Геймплей напоминает механику пошаговых боев, характерную для серии Final Fantasy, с рядом элементов, расширяющих возможности персонажей, включающих в себя разнообразные умения для атаки и защиты. Структура же игрового мира представляет собой лабиринт из нескольких уровней, каждый из которых содержит случайно сгенерированных монстров, некоторые из которых весьма имбовы и могут нанести вам смертельный урон одним ударом. Это создает элемент неопределенности и требует почаще сохраняться и грамотно прокачиваться. В итоге, у игры вроде есть потенциал, но принудительное обучение в бесчисленном количестве открывающихся окон, мыльная картинка и плохое музыкальное сопровождение вызывают больше негативную реакцию, чем положительную.

This game has a lot of issues, but a lot of promise. It's a no for now (and hopefully it'll get better), and here's why: First the good: I really love the stats and artistic representation of a lot of prospects here. They show a great level of quality and ultimately set the entire feel for the game. This is certainly has and shows more promise for a greater potential to the game. Now the bad...: Honestly, the 3d modeling is rough at best, and atrocious at worst. This is because I can't tell what is artistic design, and what is just unfinished or glitches. Secondly, the ungoldly number of tutorials don't trust you to learn anything for yourself - you are spoonfed everything, utterly destroying the immersiona and general flow of the game. Would definitely appreciate a simple Tutorial tab. Lastly, and the most glaring offense in any RPG, the Story. The game throws you into a situation with no context (not bad), but then proceeds to just have Miria literaly VOMIT Exposition upon you - some of which is helpful yet incomplete, most which expects you to practically take notes. I would love to revisit this game, but only after it has had a significant number of tweaks and changes - I wouldn't even mind if they dropped the 3d altogether and went 2d.

Looked promising, but ultimately it's too frustrating to get into. Bad/vague writing, too much hand-holding, too many info dumps, far too many tutorials (my second battle literally had 5 tutorials in it, then I defeated the creature with a single spell). Also, absolutely no indication of what the control scheme is ("C" is the back button, WASD chooses options, and enter is the only activate key I could find). Just really poor execution overall.

This game [b]needs[/b] to be in Early Access. It is severely broken in some ways and under-developed in others. The tutorial battle had missing textures and an absolutely boring demonstration of hitting the attack button some 20 or 30 times to kill the tutorial enemy. Shortly after the tutorial battle ended the game had a runtime error and nearly crashed my OS. Promptly after, I ran an integrity check and Steam found no issues with the installation. Despite this, I found a log in the game files that clearly suggests game objects and scripts are missing. The game [i]looks[/i] appealing for the lore and the jrpg elements they are trying to imitate, but it's failing hard in execution and lacking an immediate [i]fun[/i]-factor. This one needs more time in the oven - it's not ready for the Steam store yet.

Судя по ачивкам, я единственный в мире человек, прошедший этот кусок кода. Это был странный опыт: будто я играл в творение ребёнка-аутиста. Всё такое страшное, кривое и неказистое. Одни дыры в балансе и логике заделывались другими дырами. Трудно подобрать слова, чтобы описать, насколько всё ужасно. Скажем так, если у вас есть враг, которому вы желаете смерти, подарите ему Рагну Маю. Смерть его будет мучительной. PS Ну а мне, как знатному гoвноеду, полагается кaкашечная медаль за прохождение сего шедевра.

LONG LIVE JRPG GAMEPLAY! First things first, I've been following this game since it was first posted on greenlight last year, so I know how different the quality is compared to when it was first made public. Honestly, at the time, I loved the synopsis since it drew me in, but the gameplay footage at the time and graphical quality was quite questionable. However, with this, with the final product, I'm glad I followed it. The game can be better in several areas, but overall, the gameplay mechanics make it a game worth buying. Nearly 3 hours into the game, I've nearly cleared the 1st of 7 floors of the Labyrinth of Razuri. The field gameplay follows retro-type jrpg games where exploration of the floor can lead the player to treasure chests, random battles, and optional battles. Battles can occur as the Dullahan explores the floor, but the twist with this game is there are optional battles where additional rewards can be earned. The field camera reminds me of Resident Evil where if the player enters an area, the camera is moved to a fixed position. Also, like Resident Evil, the positioning of the camera can hide certain explorable areas and you'll miss certain items and battles. This must be where the "retro" of the game's retro-modern comes from. Now, the best part of the game, BATTLE GAMEPLAY AND CRAFTING Battle Gameplay is pretty much Final Fantasy X style, and I LOVE IT. BUT, what makes this game's battle gameplay really shine are the Mirages and Damage Factors. Mirages can be created by the Dullahan's servant, Miria, and they are your party members. To create a Mirage, first you'll have to get an Akasha Fragment of the Mirage you want to create (these drop from enemy Akashas), and once you have one, go to a data terminal (Save Point. You could also save on the pause menu but you can only create a Mirage here.) then create a Mirage. And here's the fun part, lets say you have a level 10 mirage in your party and it dies in battle, [b]PERMA DEATH![/b] However, you can create a mirage again at a save point BUT the mirage will go back to level 1. Oh and by the way, the Dullahan can only be revived 13 times the whole game! There are alot of Damage Factors in the game, the main ones are the attributes, STR DEF etc. like in all RPG's. Then there's the Vulnerability Guard(VG). The VG is just great, the simplest comparison would be.... FFXIII's Stagger Guage but without the staggering. With each attack, the VG can increase or decrease. If you're the one attacking, your VG will increase and you decrease the damage you take, and if you're the one receiving the attack, your VG will decrease and you'll increase the damage you take. Interesting right? But there's more, Elemental Fragility(EF), each character in Ragna Maya has an EF, and the higher the EF, the more damage you take from that element, and vice versa. The EF can be increased or decreased depending on the weapon and accessories. And this game lets the Dullahan equip 1 weapon(There are 5 weapon types and some of the Dullahan's animations change) and 4 essences, Mirages can equip no weapon but 5 essences. THE CRAFTING IN THIS GAME HAS SO MUCH OPTIONS. 5 Tiers of weapons (I think there are over 50 weapons) and over 70 essences? I didn't count but there is just so much! Including the crafting for materials and scrolls, there are over 150+ craftable items! Btw, if the enemy akasha's mana goes 0, they take large damage, so with this feature, you can choose to build a mana-decreasing focused Dullahan build! The spells the Dullahan can use can be learned by exchange mana fragments at save points. This allows the Dullahan to learn skills he needs the most. This feature is amazing since you can learn the highest damage dealing spells at low levels! [b]Verdict: GAMERS NEEDS TO PLAY THIS GAME. I'm still about to reach the 2nd Floor, but I'm quite addicted to the battle gameplay and mechanics. I believe this developer has what it takes to take this game/series to the next level. [/b]

JRPG Gameplay outweighs some of it's flaws. JRPG twists are Party members can be summoned if you have the appropriate catalyst, Party Member permanent death (can be resummoned at save points but reverts to level 1), Vulnerability Guard(VG) which is a damage factor, Spells are learnable by exchanging mana fragments for tomes (One of the Best features for me). As an indie developer, there's potential. [b] I recommend this JRPG for RPG fans. [/b]

Приключенческая JRPG в фэнтези-сеттинге. Необычная атмосфера для этого жанра. Тут вы не увидите анимешные лица, игра ближе к фэнтези с магами, войнами, ведьмами, орками и всякой прочей нечистью. Соответственно в игре много оружия и магии. Кроме этого есть нехитрый крафт и прокачка. Прокачка очень разнообразна. Очень много всяких характеристик влияющих на защиту и урон. Все подробно объясняют на экранах подсказки. Жаль, что они на английском языке, но разобраться будет гораздо проще, чем кажется. Сражения напоминают Final Fantasy X. Типичный для JRPG пошаговый геймплей разнообразили различными нововведениями. У персонажей больше возможностей для атак и защиты благодаря особым умениям. Исследовать предстоит лабиринт из семи уровней, связанных между собой. Продвигаясь по ним, сражаемся со случайно сгенерированными монстрами. В игре лучше почаще сохранятся. Попадаются враги, которые могут вас убить одним ударом магической атаки, если вы не успели достаточно прокачаться. Любителям FF и JRPG рекомендую обратить внимания на игру. «Ragna Maya» порадует знакомым геймплеем в необычном фэнтези-сеттинге.

So far, I've had 2 battles both of which we over in a round or two, and about 40 minutes of tutorials. If the first thing done is frustrate the player into leaving, that's just bad design. Also, the fonts are halfway to unreadable.
