XBlaze Code: Embryo

Hahahahaah, absolute ♥♥♥♥

Kikuo cooked the OST

Not for me. Couldn't get into the story, while going in knowing nothing about this franchise. Judging by others, it's not the best story to learn of this series.

So to start off this game almost has no connection to the mainline series of games, BlazBlue. So if you're getting into this for that change that train of thought, though they do reference some of that worlds aspect into this game. Best parts of this game are each scene is fully voice acted, good music to accompany the scene, the sprites are decent, the cg are good, and the story routes great especially the Es route least to me are splendid. Now the cons of the games kind of stick out sometimes but it didn't really get to ruin my enjoyment. First con was the beginning of the game, the story was kind of meh and didnt hook my as much until i saw some of the "BlazBlue" references and such. Another would be the pacing of the game(its a VN lol), what i mean is there are certain parts where the characters are friends for a bit and then extremely pissy at each other to the point it just ruined my immersion lol. Though that doesn't happen as often as it does but nonetheless it ruined the immersion a bit for me. The other con would be the protagonist as he can be insufferable at sometimes on certain routes of the game. Though it gets rectified near the end of the game but thats too late to leave a good impression on the reader. In the end i really did enjoy the VN as a whole and it was very sweet knowing some of the endings and what they represent in the games. How some of the endings do link into each other leading to one of the routes being the "true" end for some as it would lead into the sequel XBlaze: Lost Memories. So for the time being i give this VN a 8/10 as I was sucked into its world and starting to love its mythos. (p.s. my review was probably written horribly but thanks for reading if you did)

Por allí hay una reseña de alguien comentando que el juego solo tiene 38 valoraciones luego de un año, y yo vengo a complementar esa información: luego de 10 años apenas tiene 68 reseñas, 69 incluyendo esta. La descripción especifica que esto es una precuela de [i]Blazblue: Calamity Trigger[/i], pero eso es una verdad a medias: si es una precuela, pero Xblaze pertenece a otro universo (muy común en la saga manejar eventos entre distintos universos). La historia es un cliché entre los japoneses: un estudiante común y corriente termina rodeado de chicas por motivos fuera de su control, pero resulta que no es común y corriente y ahora debe evitar que el mundo sea destruido por malvados super villanos (ademas de ir a la escuela y su trabajo de medio tiempo). El juego tiene varios finales, varios de ellos dedicados como terminas en una relación con algunas de las chicas que te rodean, porque ya sabes, cliché de novela visual japonesa. La traducción no es la mejor: incluso si no sabes japones (como yo) puedes notar como los personajes tienen diálogos muy largos, pero los subtítulos apenas y son 3 palabras. Si eres un nerd como yo y quieres saber quien es Es antes de jugar [i]Blazblue Centralfiction[/i] o simplemente experimentar esta obra en lugar de leer la historia en una wiki, pues adelante. Si lo vas a comprar, que sea con descuento.
