    I will recommend that you play this on your TV, because any text is hard to read on the Switch screen. I also suggest using the Pro controller if you can, because using the Joy-cons, even in the Grip, isn't great for this kind of game. Despite those warnings, Nights of Azure 2 is a pretty easy pick-up-and-play game given the timed mission structure. It’s not perfect, but I’m having a good time with it. I encourage you to save often, though, because the game crashed on me three times and resulted in lost progress. Annoying, but at least it’s not hard-locking the system.

It's as if i'm watching an anime instead of playing it at times. I recommend this if you like anime, Jrpgs, hack n slash games, a good story/good music, and ofcourse yuri (let's be real here lol). Don't pay attention to the very critical reviews from the Critic Reviewers, this is a game you need to give a try if you are interested in musou games like this. The game isn't mind blowing by any means, but it's good enough to playthrough and collect everything. As far as framerate goes, it does become noticeably low during handheld mode, but in docked tv mode it looks and runs better, keep that in mind. (You'll want to play this docked all the time if you don't like the fps/resolution) Overall, this game deserves an 8, because for me, single player campaigns needs a good story to stand up, and to me Nights of Azure 2 executed it nicely.… Full Review »

    This game will probably be the first obscure JRPG in a long line of many on the Switch. How does it live up? decent. Not mind blowing but itThis game will probably be the first obscure JRPG in a long line of many on the Switch. How does it live up? decent. Not mind blowing but it is a glorious game worth the money. The story is a little cut and dry, but It is still charming and cute, the voice acting is done well, and the music is really beautiful. Much like the First one, the mechanics are all the same, hack and slash combo into waves of weaker enemies. Similiar to Mosou style games. Docked it plays super smooth, the HD rendering looks wonderful, undocked I noticed it is a little slower but nothing super noteworthy, and you only notice it if youve been playing docked for a while. I am not a fan of the baby faced models and the Environments, while pretty, look pretty cheap.

    Over all, Id say the biggest problem this game faces, is that it comes out 3 days before the most anticipated game on the Switch comes out, and so people are going to more than likely spend their money on Mario Odyssey . But for those of you looking for a fun cliche and quirky JRPG this one is definitely going to be for you.    … Full Review »
