    The combat, skills, and crafting system are all so well done that I never felt like I was just grinding and wasting my time. Every fight was enjoyable regardless of how often I had seen a specific enemy or even if it was my third time doing a mission.

    Earth's Dawn is a solid little title with a few minor niggles that hold it back from being a great title.

    Fans of action-RPGs can’t do much wrong checking Earth’s Dawn out, but it’s by no means essential.

    Even with its flaws, I think many people will enjoy Earth's Dawn, but I don't expect it to be a hit or even a cult classic. If anything those starved for something similar to Odin's Sphere or an RPG-style beat 'em-up might get some enjoyment out of it, while most will find the repetition a bit too much.

    Earth’s Dawn has many good ideas going for it, but unfortunately doesn’t execute them in a way that brings excellence to the action RPG genre. It’s a good game but doesn’t reach any level of greatness; it is entertaining but not enthralling.

    Absolutely one of the best games of it's type, and probably the only game of it's type on the xb1 platform. It just feels awesome to play.Absolutely one of the best games of it's type, and probably the only game of it's type on the xb1 platform. It just feels awesome to play. Tashikani, it is reminiscent of muramasa rebirth and odin's sphere and Dragon's Crown, but c'mon...that's probably the highest compliment that can be given to a 2-D devil may cry.

    Beyond that, the art design is gorgeous. It's just beautiful to look at. I love the segmented 2D look of this and Odin's and i hope we see more of it.
