Ys SEVEN

It is peak

[h1]Previously, on Dragon Ball Ys, Adol crashed another ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boat. When will he ever learn to sail? When will he ever get the girl? TUNE IN, NOOOW![/h1] Well, this was a wild change of pace. This Ys game introduces parties. You are no longer flying Solo as Adol. You can play as Dogi for the first time and he's a POWERHOUSE. I hope I can use him in future games...[i]it SURE would be a massive mistake to never let me play as him again. It SUUUUURE would be.[/i] Other than the party system, this game focuses on two other gimmicks. Damage types(Strike, Slash, and Pierce) and DRAGON ENERGY(TM). You now know why I decided to make the reference above. You basically need a balanced party for a good portion of the game. Certain enemies will either take little damage or NO damage from certain damage types. Dragon Energy comes in the form of skills and EXTRA skills. Skills are special moves that you can learn from weapons. Once you level up the skill from 0 -> 1, you have the skill permanently and can use it with different weapons. The max is 10. [b]PRO TIP: The skill that is assigned to a certain weapon will gain extra experience points if you use the weapon to level up the skill. In other words, use the weapon that the skill came from(or can come from) to level it up faster if that's what you want to do.[/b] EXTRA skills are super moves. Each party member has their own unique one. There's also party effects that are technically part of EXTRA skills, but I'll let you discover that on your own. One aspect of the game that I found myself both enraged at myself and this blatant oversight, is that there's a mechanic that is introduced and never explained again. There's no explanation in the help menu just in case you forgot. It's called [b][u]FLASH GUARD[/u][/b]. I cannot stress this enough, LEARN THIS MOVE. It's your best defensive option since rolling through attacks is an extremely tight window. You execute this by holding the Skill button(Mine was L2), and then hitting R2. This will nullify damage and get you more meter for your skills. Don't be like me and have to awkwardly learn this towards the end of the game. So, I did like these new mechanics to a point. I do prefer the solo adventures of Adol and I definitely prefer how Oath of Felghana or Ys VI played, personally. The story was nice and had some neat twists and turns. The music was fantastic. I'd put it up there with one of Nihon Falcom's best soundtracks. This game was long. Not as long as my playtime, I went for some unnecessary achievements for minimal bragging rights. As I've said in other reviews, I PREFER when Ys is short and sweet. I hear that the games get longer though....much longer. Oh dear. Will I make it through the rest of the series with my sanity? Will I actually make it to Ys 10? Will I even enjoy any Ys games after this? Will I finally witness Adol sailing like a pro? Find out next time on-....nevermind. That joke got old. Yes, I recommend this game.

相当好玩的一部伊苏，刚开始玩有点被画面劝退，通关后还是挺满意的，最被自己低估的一部。 迷宫很有设计，搭配不同的道具搞了很多花样，一个机关打通地图的情况很多。 BOSS战比较难但挺有意思的，不刷级的情况下得读出招才能过，很有操作。 音乐顶级，不同区域都有专属的音乐，经常会停下来听一听。 剧情只能说还不错，核心的剧情塑造在缇亚上，其他队友相对较少（这代可操作角色达到了惊人的9个）。

Playing this after the Napishtim engine games I just can't bring myself to like it.

I played on Hard mode and found some parts of the game surprisingly difficult, but really apart from that-- it's truly one of Falcom's greats. The music, story and characters are of quality that I wasn't expecting considering how old / archaic it looks.

[hr][/hr] 260626 昔PSPで途中でやめてしまったが、改めてプレイしたが「フラッシュガード」などが追加されたせいか思ってた以上に面白かった。 グラフィックはPSPをHD化しただけなのでそこまで綺麗ではないがアクションが面白いのでそこまで気にならなかった。 音楽はイースシリーズだけあって最高にいいです。 難易度は実績もあったので「ナイトメア」でプレイしたが理不尽な難易度ではなくちょっと歯ごたえがあるぐらいの難易度で楽しめた。 全体的に完成度が高いゲームだと思うのでおすすめです。 全実績解除まで約41時間ぐらいだった。 残念だったのは 仲間のCPU操作が画面外の敵に突っ込んでいき、採集ポイントで敵が微妙な位置にいると段差とかで移動できないのに敵に反応して採取してくれないのが地味に面倒だった。 注意点 ・言語設定がデフォルトで英語です。通常のゲームオプションでは言語設定は変更できないので、 初期起動時はスチームのソフトから「プレイ」を押して「設定ツールを起動」を選んでこちらで言語設定を変更できる。 ・コントローラー無線の場合、ゲーム起動後に接続すると認識しないので注意。 ・このゲームだけなのかわからないが、PSのコントローラー以上のボタンがある背面ボタンや追加ボタンはキー設定できなかった。 [spoiler]・実績「不審者退治」はボス前にある回復ポイントがなく急に戦闘になり、負けてもそのままストーリーが進んでしまうためセーブしてないとかなり戻ってやり直すことになるので注意。場所は「カイロス峡谷」になるので洞窟を出るたびにセーブしておくのがおすすめ。[/spoiler] 小ネタ[spoiler] ・ガードボタン設定は2つあり、同じボタンに設定すると1つのボタンでガードできる ・スキルボタンにガードボタンを設定すると通常はガードで、スキルトリガーボタンを押している際はスキルが使えると思ったがガードボタンに上書きされるためスキルが出ない。 使えないと最初は思ったが、スキル自体は発動しているようでスキル経験値のカウントはされるため後半の長いスキルをガードでキャンセルできるためレベル上げには使える。 ・敵はエリア移動か時間で再出現するが敵配置が密集してないので図鑑埋めやアイテム集めに時間がかかるが、セーブしてロードで敵が復活する。ちなみに採取ポイントは時間でしか復活しない。[/spoiler] [hr][/hr]

이스 셀세타의 수해에서도 같은 평가를 했지만... 정말 팔콤은 그래픽 빼고는 깔게 없습니다. 시리즈에서 파티 시스템을 도입했던 첫 번째 작품인데, 정말 스피드한 게임성과 시원한 타격은 게임을 끊을 수 없게 만드네요. 하지만 초반 적응이 필요한 그래픽... 이건 정말 해도 해도 너무 합니다. 저 같은 올드 게이머야 눈이 아무리 높아져도 예전 게임을 보면 그 수준에 맞춰 조정이 되지만, 발매 시점을 감안해도 이건 좀... 거기다 언제나 똑같은 타입의 스토리. 팔콤은 이걸 못 벗어나나 봅니다. 항상 똑같아요. 이젠 반전이 반전으로 안느껴 질 만큼이요. 하지만, 이 모든 단점에도 중독적인 OST와 시원한 액션은 이스의 아이덴티티입니다. 오래된 이스 팬이라면 반드시 해 봐야 할 게임. 하지만 그래도 그래픽은... 각오 하고 도전하세요 ㅎㅎ.

This is another fantastic addition to the Ys series. I'm in the process of playing every game involving Adol Christin and this one did not disappoint. I have no real complaints. Great game!

Recomendado, el gameplay es divertido, los bosses son curiosos. La historia es sencillita pero buena, con algunos plot twists que te meten dentro y personajes coherentes. Para mi gusto le falta más exposición, como que le falta diálogos para poder disfrutar más los puntos expuestos. No es muy largo, unas 25 horitas de historia, pero suficiente. Steamdeck perfecto sin cambiar de Proton.

Another great YS game, maybe looking a little dated but with the solid game play and great story expected of this series. Recommended
