    If the plot was more compact, and delivered more compelling story beats, the slow battles would be more tolerable. If the battles presented unique challenges and were more expediently resolved then the story could afford to be less engaging. The fact of the matter is neither is compelling nor are they offensively poor. Despite logging dozens of hours, I don’t care about these characters nor do I feel like the battles have changed dramatically in a very long time. A fan of this genre would get some fun out of God Wars, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t, but the fun to tedium ratio is just far too low. Instead, take a look at better examples of the genre, such as the two Disgaea games already on Switch.

    This version is the best available for the God Wars series, but having no real improvements does not delete the fragile structure of the game. Tactical gameplay is safe, but not everything else, very poor for a genre like this.

    In many ways God Wars is like a new Picross game; it’s more of the same. The Japanese folklore narrative offers a slight twist, but the script is painfully dull and repetitive. If you’re dipping your toe into the genre or only have time for one of these, we’d sit tight to see what Intelligent Systems has up its sleeve with the upcoming Fire Emblem: Three Houses. If you’re a strategy junkie after a fix, it gets the job done with all the mechanics and systems you’d expect – but nothing new or novel.

    It has a good game play, but the story, music is not that good, it will serve to hang out only if you have already tried final fantasy tacticsIt has a good game play, but the story, music is not that good, it will serve to hang out only if you have already tried final fantasy tactics or tactic ogre, otherwise I recommend first playing the aforementioned.

    If you liked FFT, you'll love this. There's really not much more to say than that.

Su ambientación mitológica japonesa así como su sistema de batalla son divertidos sin ser rompedores en nada.

    El gran problema que presenta este juego es que sufre de un grindeo considerable, hasta el punto que me hizo dropearlo bastante avanzada la partida, Este problema no es perceptible al principio, si no que se incrementa con el tiempo, conforme más y más personajes se unen a tu ejercito. Muchos RPG tácticos padecen tangencialmente de este problema, ya que aquellos personajes que no utilizas no suben de nivel. Sin embargo en God Wars el problema es especialmente grave: el rooster es enorme para la cantidad de personajes que puedes utilizar en batalla, muchas batallas te obligan a utilizar ciertos personajes, los combates de farmeo entre capítulos de historia dan muy poca experiencia por el tiempo invertido en ellos, estos combates son insulsos y se hacen repetitivos...

    Si te gustan los RPG tácticos es posible que te guste, pero seguramente recomendaría intenta formar un núcleo duro de personajes a usar y no jugar con todos los que se te unan (a pesar de que eso te generara dificultades). Si no eres fan del genero tienes muchas otras opciones mejores para iniciarte    … Full Review »
