頻繁にレベルアップするにはゲームのプレイを止める必要がありました

finished Yunica’s campaign. I liked it more than Hugo’s, and I started to appreciate the enemy design a lot more. I love the art style and how it combines with the engine. Definitely the type of Ys I personally enjoy the most.


Will come back later for my last play through as Claws.

Esse jogo acerta em tudo, extremamente divertido e a rota do Hugo tem uma historia ótima. Jogão demais!

Claw run. La historia es pico y el Gameplay está más guapo que una japa con los pies.

Yunica run, Gameplay entretenido, historia normalita, me ha encantado el diseño de enemigos/niveles


At first, I thought Ys Origins was going to be a monotonous game, but they more I played, the more it branched out and made for a good little dungeon crawler.
Mind you I only played the Yunica route here, I felt like playing the other characters would be more or less the same with only the skills and the bosses being different. As fun as I had playing as Yunica, I don't think it would be worth going any further than that.
The two big highlights here are the music and the boss fights. There are some killer music here that are pretty catchy, biggest example for me is the fire section of the tower. The bosses are somewhat difficult too, until you can figure out the patterns, then it becomes pretty damn easy.
There's some variety in the level design but it could have gone further with the designs, both in themes and layout, because after a while it does feel a little samey, regardless if they add some gimmicks here and there.
It's a good game to pick up and play if you can get it on a sale, like i did. It was enjoyable that does have more game inside it, but I think one playthrough is more than enough!

this game was a 4.5 until toal happened and then it was just a constant ''yeah this is way better than i was expecting even after playing the other 2 routes'' so yeah

going from Ys 1 to this was a crazy ass decision on my part but don't regret it at all, such a fun game, even though all of the routes share (pretty much) the exact same map, the different movesets between each character still make it enjoyable, especially when each route never really overstays its welcome with how short they all are
really enjoyable story too, mainly character focused which I usually prefer, but the true ending sets up the backstory of Ys 1 very well
just an overall great time, simple, straight-forward good old action RPG fun
