I mean, yeah, once you actually land a hit and set it up right, you can do some cool juggles and lockdown enemies.
The problem is before you get to that, you have to actually land a hit. And god fukking forbid you get surrounded or deal with a boss that's just walking through your shyt until you get past their damage gate.
Precisely. Landing a hit is a bytch sometimes, especially against some flying enemies once they see you are winning the fight, they just run away like bytches. I'm aware that manual cancelling helps mitigate that, but even that feels wonky. It's annoying too that you can run attack enemies, but that doesn't lead into your normal combo strings. Maybe into your artes, but I don't think that works either w/o cancelling first.
For bosses that do that, I find that ranged tactics is where it's at. Too bad the AI of the other characters don't learn and do stupid stuff and wanna run up on on them when it's not the time for that.
Jumping and the attacks that comes with that are, while not without purpose, are still executed wack overall, especially with no real jump button. Only Judith seems to be able to aerial combo, but I guess that at least helps with the cast variation.
no it is antiquated u right, am saying that on the switch version i played it on u didnt have to hold down the L2 or left triger to free roam after a while u get a skill that lets u do it without it.
but u right it is antiquated no questions
but overall both u guys make valid points, so i can see why ur complaining maybe its the switch version thing idk
am a download the game again and see if u right cuzz i swear after a while u no longer have to hold down the trigger button
Word. So once again they locking out movement options that should just be fundamental basics...like how they did with the character switching in combat eh?
Overall tho, I still like the game. I think it'll measure up to an 8/10 once I'm done with it. I do like that the characters play very differently. Yuri seems the most well rounded and worthwhile tho.
I just got Flynn for the first time.
