Where to start... well, it feels like a vintage game. Graphics aren't bad, as long as you don't hate chibi characters. The animations are great and they really have that impact of power. The storyline is interesting, but there are parts of the story that ruin what happens at the end, at least it was transparent for me. The team compositions are fun to play with as you build your team up and the difficulty of combat makes the game exciting for the first half of the game. The latter half of the game was almost a cake-walk thanks to certain classes and team compositions. I spent around 30 hours doing everything I possibly could, it was well worth my time and money.

Nevermind the actual 7th dragon psp game, this is its sequel and.. it shows. I'm assuming the studio is small and doesn't have the budget to do 3D and the models are psp quality, which isn't nonsensical to say considering the original 3ds came out in 2011 and has similar specs to the psp. The problem is that it's 2016 and the lack of the studio's budget shows after multiple games on different hardware over the years. Enough with my graphical critique though. The game is a dungeon crawler with a barebones post-apocalyptic anime motif. The classes are very interesting though, the God Hand is a one-man army capable of crippling bosses while buffing themselves and countering enemy attack that also end up buffing them even more. The Duelist draws cards both selectively and at random to deal elemental damage and create traps for enemies, they even have moves that allow them to deal more damage based on how many cards they used. The Hacker can hack enemies during or at the start of battle to debuff, attack, or make the enemies attack eachother whilst healing the entire party. They can even hide to avoid damage altogether and counter all attacks made on the party with their own. The game even allows you to make a backup team that while, you cannot control simultaneous with the first, can buff your team even more when things get tough. They also level up with your main team, so grinding isn't an issue. Your characters get stronger stats with every level and get skill points to gain and boost new abilities that help make the battles easier. The primary antagonisst is the titular 7th dragon and his 200+ mini-dragons throughout the course of the games mythical history. Think of them as Etrian Oddyssey's FOEs, only that they die permanently and make the 7th dragon weaker with every defeat. The game's side quests aren't numerous and they aren't very interesting, bu they help create new facilities in your bases that unlock new features and equipment. Some of the characters are entertaining like the edgy, try-hard but sympathetic, not-rabbit, rabbit. Most of the cast isn't as entertaining and come off as unoriginal. In the end, the game wins in the gameplay area, but not much anywhere else.

If your looking for a fun RPG for the 3DS, then you should totally consider 7th Dragon. The game play is fun and the music is great. The story is lacking, but this game isn't trying to be an epic either. Its a fun and engaging RPG that is worth your time.
