    Bastante decepcionante en todos los sentidos. Es de los pocos RP que no he llegado a terminar porque no le cojo el gusto. Graficamente es bastante pobre, y el diseño artístico es bastante regular, en especial el diseño de los niveles. El sistema de batalla no tiene ningun sentido, solo puedes llevar 4 objetos al combate, incluyendo TUS ARMAS, pociones, objetos de ataque, etc. Con las armasBastante decepcionante en todos los sentidos.

El sistema de batalla no tiene ningun sentido, solo puedes llevar 4 objetos al combate, incluyendo TUS ARMAS, pociones, objetos de ataque, etc. Con las armas puedes aprender habilidades...pero luego solo puedes usarlas si llevas dicho objeto. Un sinsentido absurdo. Encima el inventario es super limitado asique te verás descartando objetos cada dos por tres.… Expand

    It's not going to satisfy if you're in the market for another "Golden Sun" game or a new "Tactics Ogre" game. Despite the screen shots, it is not a tactical RPG, and it breaks a number of genre conventions associated with traditional RPGs. It could be argued, however, that this is the best reason to buy Riviera, as it certainly allows for a very interesting and unique experience with an emphasis on strategy and a wonderful story.

    The game also features some nice unlockables as well as multiple endings for every character in the party. And just in case you need another incentive, Atlus isn't shipping too many copies either, so grab it while you can.
