It’s okay…
Square has been on a roll lately and coming off that roll is Dio Field Chronicle. The story is your stereotypical political war in a kingdom where factions are pitted against each other for various reasons. Unlike the excellent story of Triangle Strategy, DioField’s takes a backseat to make room for some interesting real time strategy battle mechanics. You select on of four characters and assign them commands to take on the enemy. The board itself looks like a diorama with mini structures and obstacles. You are tasked with completing objectives that will earn you extra rewards in the form of exp, crafting components and currency to upgrade your troops. The music is okay, the voice acting is okay and the graphics are okay. The downside is, nothing about DioField really stands out or makes a lasting impression otherwise.

About the quality I want out of a mid tier SE game
I don't know what you would deserve this as. A tactics game? Real time with pause? Whatever it is, it's exactly what I like. Sure, the story could have been better early on and the equipment near the end doesn't have enough variation, this completely capture my attention.

You thought it was a review,but it was me,Diofield
Originally, I played the demo of Diofield and the gameplay (turn-based/strategy) was fun, but the story left me feeling neutral. I was 50/50 on buying the game. I decided to buy it and I'd say the complete experience is a good buy. Try out the demo first.
