I’ve misplaced a number of hours of progress to display freezes and a crash to the Change house menu, and it’s solely doable that I’ve spent much more time than that simply watching loading screens or ready for the menus to cease hitching. The body price jumps all over, and slows considerably in the course of the strategic battle battles which are as unattractive as they’re pointless. There’s sufficient of a large number right here that I’m unsure 100 patches could be sufficient to scrub it up.”
Digital Developments was just a little extra forgiving – awarding it 3 out of 5 stars:
“Hundred Heroes doesn’t carry out nicely on Change both. Fortunately, there have been a couple of patches that have been pushed out in the course of the overview interval that alleviated some early points…As a Suikoden successor, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is probably trustworthy to a fault. Its battle story is healthier than these present in most Hearth Emblem video games, and its vibrant forged of characters are a spotlight. The turn-based battle system is likely one of the greatest I’ve skilled of its sort in recent times, too. It’s only a disgrace that frustratingly retro RPG design and missing quality-of-life options put a damper on the entire journey.”
