    10 hours in and I give it an 8/10. I'd wanna let people know that the reason it's not rated higher for me is the lack of voice acting. I don't mind reading dialogue, but it's about 85% reading.

    I was rather bored with the battle system of the first game and the story, though decent, didn't really capture me like I expected to, so in those areas I'm looking forward to what they say will be improved in the second game. The things that have me concerned though is the addition of a multiplayer game added to a single player RPGs. These additions are almost never as good (or needed) in RPGs (looking at you Dragon Age: Inquisition and Mass Effect: Andromeda).

    Not a fan of jrpgs but it’s hard to find new games when you have over 150 already. Only selling point for me was that it’s not turn based. I find turn based dull and boring. For $6 I guess you can’t go wrong

    If Roland's a president I wonder if he'll take the opportunity to explain to Evan the benefits of a republic compared to a monarchy. I mean, I'm not saying Ding Dong Dell should abolish the monarchy, I'm just saying it would be interesting if Evan toyed with the concept of a republic and thought of a compromise, like implementing a Parliament of some kind or having a Senate like the Roman Empire had to improve his kingdom, whether if he reclaims Ding Dong Dell or builds his own elsewhere like the Targaryens did in Westeros after the Doom of Valyria and the Century of Blood.

      @KTChamberlain Před 6 lety

      I know, but like I said, it would still be interesting if Evan at least toyed with the idea after hearing about it from Roland's experience as president, and possibly thinks of a compromise or implements some ideas from a republic to his new (or reclaimed) kingdom.

    Wrath of the White Witch is one of my favorite game of all time. I must say the removal of Familiars and turn based battle REALLY intrudes on the amazingness the previous game had.
    I will definitely not get the Sp edition on this one. I need to see it more. I'm not sold.
    The Kingdome management seems really cool though.
    However, the Chibi thing, multiplayer, console exclusives, adventuring AND kingdom management really seems like they where very divided in what sort of game they where trying to make here.
    We'll see though...we'll see....

    Thank the allfather i didnt preorder this game. Just gonna call it revenant kingdom, in its own game in a standalone sense it doesnt look too bad, the combat looks smooth and the story seems intriguing, but as a direct sequel to a game that sorta broke away from the norm and brought alot of people some good times gaming, it just feels like a fan who hated most of the first took the branding under the cover of darkness and changed everything that was different and good about it. It looks awesome as a game by itself, but i dont feel it lives up to the Ni No Kuni legacy... But hey, i could be wrong, i might enjoy the shit out of this game and give it a 10! Weel see.

    • @jhemp
      @jhemp Před 6 lety +2

      I didn't play the first game, but we both haven't played the 2nd. Just because it has its differences from the original doesn't make it worse. Nostalgia often blinds us. Turn based combat, as I have said multiple times before, is not something the majority of players want anymore. Additionally, I'd rather have large changes in sequels because it helps separate games from there predecessors. Look at Destiny 2, which people constantly say is "Destiny 1.5". While I agree messing with a great formula can be a bad thing, in competent hands, that formula can be improved. Nostalgia will always leave you chasing that initial experience and nothing will ever live up to it, so don't let your fear of the new to keep you from enjoying what might be an amazing game.
      After playing hundreds, possibly thousands of games, I can tell you, if you go into each game as if it's new experience you will definitely be less disappointed, than if you constantly try to compare it to something else. Virtually every game does at least one thing well, and if the hype and dedication behind this one is anything to be believed, then this should definitely deliver a hell of a narrative.
      Alright I'm done ranting. I hope you enjoy the game a lot y'all.

    "No familiars" instantly wrote this game off. Never played the 1st well cus I never new it existed lol but the idea of pokemon(ish) gameplay sounded fun. But now all we are left with is another generic anime looking jrpg where you run around in an arena and hit square over and over oh and maybe a triangle.

    Yeah one of the things everyone should learn it’s not the same as the first Ni Nu Kuni that made everyone fall in love with Ni Nu Kuni Level 5 ruined Ni No kuni 2 by changing the characters instead of continuing with Oliver and the white Witch to see what happens next story maybe the white Witch can be partners with Oliver but that never happened so I’m not so sure if I’ll trust Ni No Kuni 3 ever

    I just bought this game without thinking and after this review, there's some lingering regret. I'm still going to play it and give it a whirl, but the lack of Oliver, Familiars and it not being turn based is a huge turnoff.

    The chibi thing is a hard turn off.
