The newest Star Ocean game isn't for everyone, but it's a wonderful science fiction RPG nevertheless, boasting magnificent combat, a transcendent soundtrack and mostly beautiful graphics. Absolutely worth your while.
More proof of the JRPG decadence these days. It's not only a problem about graphics or art design, it's about gameplay, and that's always bad. It seems that Tri-Ace and Square-Enix didn't put enough money and resources into this project.
Probably the best rpg in my opinion, the fact you can have ALL your companions in battle in same time is a +
The strategy system with title is excellent too.
As always, an awesome Star Ocean game. The only bad thing in this game is the smal battleground. If you play as a ranged character, you accidently start an escape from battle realy often.
Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness has some good ideas, but they don't jive with the messy camera, the short campaign, and the shallow combat. Fans of the series might be willing to put up with these shortcomings, but with games like Odin Sphere Leifthraser out there, it's hard to recommend it.
A washout. Somebody let the vampire in at Tri-Ace and it sucked all the life and personality from the once weird and funny JRPG series. Bring EDGE MAVERICK back. [Sept 2016]
Reviewed on PS5. The graphics are okay. The music soundtrack is decent. The story is good. The protagonist is bland. The rest of your team fall into cliche character tropes. The antagonist is predictable. Several other villains are outright hilarious and I can't take them seriously.
The combat is smooth and fluid. The UI is okay. The game froze a couple of times. There are difficulty spikes which will force you to grind to overcome them. The role system is addicting. I had my most fun with this game unlocking and experimenting with new roles.
This was the first Star Ocean game that I finished. While it can be rough around the edges, the story plot and role system kept me engaged to end. I did find it disappointing that you are on one planet the entire game. I hope Star Ocean 6 has more planets to visit and that the role system returns. Overall, a decent JRPG.
Having played the series since Star ocean 3, I feel like the series has lost some of its personality and imagination over time.
A lot of the familiar thing like the gameplay are still there. However the main story itself feels like a lot shorted of an adventure than previous titles like Star ocean 3 which proudly spanned 2 DVDs back in its days. 95% of the game takes place in a single continent of a single planet.
The spaceship parts are still as awesome as always and I wish there were more of them.
The game almost totally lacks cutscenes and instead almost all the conversations happen with a free camera in real time, I think this really damages the storytelling that worked so well in the previous 2 games, sometimes I could not tell who was speaking when there was a supporting character mixed in the conversation.
Motoi Sakuraba still breathes in life to the game with his music but even he seems to say "meh" and like 40% of the music is recycled from SO3 and SO4 (though I was glad to head again some pieces).
Overall the world feels small, only stretched by the huge waking sessions from point A to B. The antagonists ended up being very lame compared to the world threatening adversaries of the previous SO games, it was kind of a let down.
I believe the creators of Star ocean have more than enough time between the titles to come up with something more than this. If they are out of ideas I hope they would recommend SO1 and SO2 on either this or the next generation of consoles
That said like a classic SO game it has a lot of playtime specially if you want to do the postgame and the side quests
Uzun zamandır bir oyunda gördüğüm en kötü kamera kontrolüne sahip, kamera ana karakterin görüş açısına paralel gitmeye çalışıyor fakat hareket ettiğiniz alan engebeliyse bir aşağı bir yukarı mide bulantısına yol açıyor. Çok kolay çözülebilecek bir sorun, internette bakarsanız başkalarının da bu konu hakkında rahatsız olduğunu görebilirsiniz. Diğer bir konu ise, biraz deneysel gidip ara-sahne koymak yerine bu sahneleri oyun devam ederken koymayı tercih etmişler, keşke böyle yapmak yerine ara sahne koysalarmış. Bu iki nedenden dolayı kırıyorum puanın. Bunun dışında hikayesi, seslendirmeleri, grafikleri klasik AA action jrpg bunları ne iyi ne de kötü yapıyor. Beğendiğim nokta ise savaşlarda tüm parti üyelerinin kullanılabilir olması, sadece 3-4 kişi ile kısıtlamıyor ve ekranda 7 kişiyi de görüyorsunuz. Bunun dışında role sistemi de çok güzel olmuş, role sistemi sayesinde oyunun ortalarına doğru resmen oyunu bozan bir build yaptım ve hiç zorlanmadan bitirdim.
Decepção é a palavra chave nesse jogo. Cheio de bugs , história ridícula de chata e uma campanha de um pouco mais de 20 horas. Pontos possitivos ? O gráfico.
