When people talk about OMORI, the gameplay experience is rarely a topic that is ever discussed. There is a good reason for that. Namely, the game's battle system is lacking in substance. This was something that didn't hit me until a few weeks after I finished the game.

In short, the battle system is simply not very fun. The enemies you fight are really only distinguished by their appearance and stats. There are no gimmicks, no extra mechanics, and no twists or surprises past the first fight of the game. As you progress, enemies simply deal more damage and have more HP. When your party learns new special attacks, they are special attacks that more or less do more damage and cost more to use than your old ones. Minus Hero, the healer, none of the party members really feel like they cater to a specific style of play, other than to just do as much damage as possible. As such, there is never a strategy to battling, and it gets quickly bland and repetitive.

However, it's very clear that the story of the game was much more important to OMOCAT and her team than the gameplay was. Fortunately, that's where the game shines. The characters are very likable. The end of the game made me cry. The story is the experience of OMORI, and all in all, it's a good one.

For me, the gameplay issues spoil my opinion about the bulk of this game. But its good parts are great. If you find the style of this game appealing, you'll probably at least enjoy it, as did I.

its 3am and im tired af after finishing this game but fuck it im gonna try writing an actual review again

Lost Judgment is a sequel to the 2018 Yakuza spinoff Judgment. The game takes place 2 years after the events of Yakuza Like a Dragon and it shows, with Ijincho, the main location of said game, returning, which is awesome I really enjoyed it in Y7 and it is even more fun now when there is skating, which makes for a better transport alternative than simply walking or taking a taxi like seriously rgg please make skating or something like it a series staple i dont think i can go back to any yakuza game now.

Anyways, let's get to the combat. The new Snake style is REALLY FUN I barely used the other 2 styles in my playthrough, I used tiger from time to time but 90% of the time I was just having fun beating up guys with snake.

I had fun in school stories, at least from what I played, doing the boxing minigame as a Hajime no Ippo fan made me scream honestly lol. However I didn't feel like 100%ing them because...

The story. Oh my god. Phenomenal. It is similar to that of Yakuza 4 and 5 where things which at first are unrelated to each other, start to link up, however I'd say they finally got it right. I liked how the main antagonist was written, unlike any previous antagonist in an RGG game he was not that.. evil or ambitious, he felt more like an anti villain. He just has good intentions but terrible ways to execute them. I like those types of stories, where both sides are not exactly right or wrong, especially if I end up enjoying the bad guy more than the hero. All the other characters were great too, returning and new. I can't think of anyone from the game that I hated, except for a very certain coordinator.

tl;dr i loved this game best rgg game imo one of the best gameplay styles and arguably the best antagonist in all of rgg

if this is nagoshi's last time working on an rgg game then he went off with a bang idk how rgg studio can make it any better than this peak fiction 11/10

Bom jogo.
Speedrun em jogo de FPS é sempre algo gostoso. esse jogo tem o efeito flow muito forte, que combina bem com o tema.
A parte social do jogo é beeem superficial, mas entrega bem. o jogo quer ser um anime nesse sentido e funciona tendo até "episódios fillers".
Não espere nada demais, sendo um tema póstumo o jogo deixa bem a desejar nesse aspecto ao meu ver, não espere reflexões.
A gameplay tho... delicia e bem competitivo.
