The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails

After seeing some of the reviews here, I feel basically encline to say this game is a huge melting pot of Falcoms RPGs up to the PSP era. This is not a bad thing at all since there's at least one or two aspects from game of that era which this game adopts into itself while also being tasteful in how it does so. For me, I just generally like how much this reminds me of the Naphistm engine Ys games (When I got them back on a GOG deal ages ago, lol) but I also appreciate how much of Trails and (especially) Zwei played influence also with the characters and implementation of some mechanics. I will say the story itself isn't really anything mindblowing. You can probably assume what will happen after seeing what tension unfolds, but I think even in these moments it at least uses the characters and settings appropriately. By the last 3rd of the story I was surprised how much I was invested. Not to a gob smacked degree but I did get a little teary eye'd with how things unfolded. It is a Falcom game so by that metric I do feel music is important to bring up. Pretty solid though it does take awhile before some of the more expected tracks play. Might make the first two acts of the game seem kinda subdued in that front but it does make that 3rd act stand out all the more (I really that 3rd act is what I'm beginning to realize). I think it's wiser to get this game when on sale, since I think to really respect what this game does requires a bit of homework with trying out some of their notable titles from the PSP era beforehand. Not for lore and not necessarily to completion but just for context of what eventually came together to make this game. Cause as a capstone for Falcom's PSP era, I'd say this game is like a "Best of" album in that regard.

Великолепная игра.
