Glorious Savior is an okay retro RPG that has some unique components for sure but they don't add up to much when it all feels as simple and straightforward as it does. I would like to see a more fleshed-out sequel, though, that adds a lot more variety and complexity.
The annoyances of Glorious Savior are pretty much balanced by the new mechanics, and as a result this is a very middle of the road game - it never quite tips over the edge into greatness, but neither does it fall into the pit of oblivion.
