The remaster of a cult favourite 2010 PS3 game has topped the UK retail charts this week.

Still pretty good numbers for a remaster of a game that's a decade old:ehh:

Now where's the sequel at :ufdup:

:martin: the sequel to Automata

It came out in 2017, that's long enough for them to be cooking up a sequel to their most popular game.
My bad:russ:

Im hopin this sells as good as Automata so Square gets confident in this series n can throw Yoko a big ass budget, then we’ll really see what he’s capable of.

Finished Act 1. Fun boss fight and finally the story progressed from just being fetch quests :ehh:

Some of these camera angles they make you fight at are fugazi though :rudy:

score is 7.5 outta 10 yet a must play for jrpg fans

points deducted were for the lack of fast travel(yes im aware of the ship in act 2 yet it still aint an excuse for proper fast travel. N the boat dont even take you directly to most places, you still gotta run through fields/deserts/enemies to get to your destination)

act 1 holds it back a lot

constant back n forth makes it boring

combat is solid. I dunno what they changed but I agree with @Grand Conde when he says its better. on paper it looks the same as automata yet it felt more involved n enjoyable.

act2 route B had repetitiveness but was fire.

im glad this one got a remake/remaster. it falls in between both. aint an FFX remaster but aint enough diff for an FF7R.

story is fire. as a jrpg fan I was happy with the improvements.

can't guarantee it to all. its a game you will either love or despise.

overall I dont regret paying that 60 bucks, or the time spent to get ending A through E. im happy this niche joint got a facelift n look forward to the future.

now, given my number score y'all might assume this a skip but it aint. its a game with some problems but so good at the same time I still gotta recommend to play if you into jpgs. its special, flaws n all.

can't judge off of Route A act1

Funny, I'm still in act 1 and I'm entertained enough so far and have little gripes with it so far.

Seems about right. The story is full of selfishness and hopelessness that makes you think about your previous in-game actions. Most games don't make you feel about what you do. This one does. That is where the high scores come from.

The game itself is ok. It does nothing particularly special outside perspective changes and bullet hell sequences.
