The battle system in this game really shines — you can start by just spamming attacks, but you will need to read all the tips to get the most out of the timeline, counters, attributes, roles, etc. Being a Japanese game, it does not do much hand-holding but expects you to discover much of the nuances yourself which could be aggravating but I find very gratifying. This is a breath of fresh air compared to F2P titles with anemic battle systems, paywall and gacha mechanics. It’s nice to be enjoying battles as opposed to all the other busy work f2p titles need. I haven’t see any prompt within the game to review it, which may explain the low number of reviews.

The game itself is amazing. However there are 3 big issues. I wish they'd be addressed especially with the high price of the game you'd expect some quality improvements. 1) No option to get the Japanese voice acting. You're stuck with English dub no matter what. The Japanese cast had some amazing people and not having them here is extremely disappointing. There should be an option to select downloadable voices / delete English voices. 2) The home bar for iPhone x devices is always appearing everytime you tap the screen. It's extremely bothersome. They need to fix it so it stays gone unless you swipe up on the bottom of the screen. This is an oversight that actually hinders the game since buttons are at the bottom of the screen and get blocked by the idiotic home bar graphic. 3) Lastly, there should be a static virtual joystick option. Floating joysticks just don't work as well as a joystick that is set in one spot. This emulates the feeling of a controller joystick that doesn't move around.Also - shortening the app name so it fits under the icon would be nice. Sadly, SQE usually doesn't see any feedback and if I email them, they don't listen. And their best mobile rpg Chaos Rings 3 broke on ios13 and they won't bother fixing it. I wish SQE took more time to show they cared about their mobile customers.

I have gotten more enjoyment out of this game than any other that I have ever played. I’ve played a few. GameStop manager for almost a decade, so I have other games to compare it to. I put it down for a bit, but always pick it back up. Multiple characters to play through as. So much to do! Can not wait for the sequel, Saga Emerald Beyond releasing April 25!!

If you have a lot of time of your hands, this might be fun? Confusing battle mode, unless you meat requirements you have to re-do the battle, like things out of your control like an enemy counter attacking, will force you to re-so the battle, but only after the battle has been completed. It just took me 10minutes to fight one battle and I just started the game, it shouldn't be that difficult. The battles also don't give you any explanation, sometimes you can attack, sometimes not, sometimes you attack multiple times when you didn't command it to. So basically the game is playing itself and you're just watching a movie, since it only lets you select the commands it wants.Way too many limitations.
