    Amazing quality with tons of content even for a game that is semi linear the progression of the story and mechanics just flow smoothly. Highly recommended.

    Such a fantastic JRPG. Honestly, one of the best ones I've played along with Xenoblade. Very fast action-based combat and really nice storyline.

    Great game and fast paced action. Finally the switch for a decent title this year with this Daemon X machina and the new zelda. A new must have for sure.

    The visuals are great and the plot keeps you constantly guessing. It takes a while to get used to the controls but in the end, it performs excellently.

    This goes up there with Mario Oddysey and Breath of the Wild as a unique experience. After playing this, I want to check out Plantium's other tiles.

    Didn't connect as well for me as Platinum's usual

    This game didn't feel as tight as a lot of Platinum's games usually are. It felt at moments like there were enemy attacks that were almost straight up unavoidable, or only avoidable under specific circumstances. And the missions being as long as they are makes it a pain to try and get the highest ranking for all the sub-missions and combat encounters. This is usually why games of this type have missions that can be finished in just a couple minutes. And it auto-saves right after the mission finishes and you get your ranking, so you can't just load a save to try again. This was fun at times, but it also honestly felt a bit frustrating. I can't really recommend this game at full price. I'd love to be able to say otherwise about a game made by Platinum, but I can't.

    Pretty fun game. You control both the main character and the Legion during gameplay. Solve some cases for the police/Neuron. Hasn’t been boring yet!

    Great action game from Platinum. It's not quite as tight and well paced as Bayonetta. And the experience does drag on a bit longer than it should (especially if you attempt all the side missions). But with no Bayonetta 3 yet, this will stretch the itch.

    Great action RPG-style game

    The game was supervised by Hideki Kamiya, the Creator of Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Bayonetta, & The Wonderful 101 (which is getting a remaster in May for Switch, PS4, & Steam), so you know it’s gonna be good! It’s been a while since I’ve played the game because I’ve moved on to other ones, but the best way to explain this is that it’s kind of like if Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure (or Persona since the designs look more like that than Jojo) got another game adaptation in the form of what you see in DMC, Bayonetta, or Nier
