    Altogether, the combat is just cumbersome enough to make every fight feel like a drag, and a poor imitation of more sophisticated systems you've seen elsewhere. It's something I'd probably be willing to put up with were it buoyed by an exceptional story and lovable cast of characters, but Astria Ascending fails on all counts. By all means give it a go on Game Pass if you're desperate to see what it's like, but be warned: this is not a game that respects your time. There are far better avenues to pursue if you're after an engaging JRPG. The only thing you'll achieve by taking this particular detour is a one-way street to disappointment.

    Aucune possibilité d'accélérer les combats , alors qu'en vous tombez sur 6 - 7 bestioles mettant 15 ans a frapper et plus souvent que vous , c'est d'un ennui mortel.

    Absolutely beautiful art style. Hand drawn, intricate characters and backgrounds. Great music by highly-regarded Japanese game musicAbsolutely beautiful art style. Hand drawn, intricate characters and backgrounds. Great music by highly-regarded Japanese game music composers. To get it's look, it has an unusual 2D visual style, but this gives it a different look from many other similar games. The main characters are adults, so this is not a game aimed at little kids, though the game is fine for the whole family to play. As I write this, the game is free on Xbox Games Pass.… Full Review »
