Touhou SouzinengiV -The Genius of Sappheiros-

Mesmo sendo meu jogo de infancia, e ainda assim é um jogo complicado por causa do pouco de grinde que precisa ser feito, eu ainda adoro ver coisas nossas que o meu passado não tinha conseguido. não seria algo que recomendo para alguem jogar mais é um jogo que esta comigo por causa de meu passado

I hate chiyou

While this game takes a lot of inspiration from Romancing SaGa 3 especially, the core design isn't all that much alike. SaGa games are often considered very difficult, but they're honestly not. SaGa games are all about giving the player a lot of freedom but you can make it through regardless of your choices with overall reasonable strategies. In this game, regular bosses are like superbosses in other JRPGs. Unless overleveled / overprepared, you need very carefully thought out strategies which will take a lot of trial and error or looking up online, and you will want to keep all party members leveled up so you can switch strategies based on the fight. For me, this gets very exhausting. 50 hours of labyrinth like dungeons with practically unavoidable enemies that spam status ailments or big AOEs followed by a boss that requires superboss-level preparations (more so later into the game than earlier). It's basically the same formula for the entire game. The difficulty options don't even matter much, everything I said applies both to Hard and Easy mode. Easy is just a little more lenient. It's just too much for me, I much prefer SaGa games. But if what I described sounds good to you, then it's a quality product

Other JRPG devs should probably take tons of notes from this one in terms of gameplay mechanics and difficulty balance.

Decided to give this game a second chance, and I'm glad I did! The game is a really fun and in-depth RPG with plenty of character customization and skills to discover. Every character feels unique and has their uses (even if some are more useful than others). The combat is also really fun and enjoyable! The postgame also has quests that guarantee rare materials, making grinding less of a hassle. The lack of a map, the aimless wandering, and some dungeon designs drag the game down at points, but the good heavily outweighs the bad. I'd recommend this over Devil of Decline, it's a much more worthwhile experience.
