A lifeless husk from what originally was one of my favorite games in the franchise and the final nail in the coffin for my love of RGG as a company AND a game series.

Cards are cool I guess.

Oh no, I understand I'm being overdramatic but I've been having way too many problems with the series for the past few years and I was tired of bottling it up and thinking that they're improve as time went on.
I respect that RGG is doing what brings them money and I wish them the best for it, but I'm sick of my favorite games being turned into something I don't enjoy and one of my favorite games of all time (6) constantly being disrespected with every following entry.

I hope you can understand my perspective even if you don't agree with what I'm saying.

Explain why or how the remake differs from the original release. I'm interesting in knowing as well

This goes over quite a lot of the changes and accurately sums up my feelings on the game as well

@CrimsonMercuria Yeah, the combat isn't as fun as I think I would. The original Ishin used Y5's engine for combat and Y5 combat was already pretty good.

Though I would say most of the difficulty comes because of the RPG mechanics. You can either makes this really easy or really hard. Personally I didn't mind much about my equipment so the game was fairly challenging and hard. Probably the hardest the series has ever been for me. I also played on hard, that might have affected some of my experience. Boss fights to be exact were incredible outside some stinky ones.

I only didnt like the normal fight, the ones that are in groups but that's it. 1 star is still a bit too much if you ask me.
