Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is an outstanding debut from a team whose heart and soul come through in every aspect, delivering an exceptional RPG.
While Atomfall should be praised for its accessibility settings and innovative “Lead” system, a plethora of design shortcomings frustrate in this survival-RPG hybrid.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak 2 manages to improve in some areas while stumbling a bit in others, but still manages to deliver an exciting tale; here is our review.
Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is a lovely remake of one of Square's legacy titles and may be the best entry into the series for newcomers to dip their toes.
There’s something special here, but the gem that is Godfall is buried deep underneath a pile of issues and lackluster content. Godfall hamstrings most of its good ideas, crippling the game out of the gate. Offering multiplayer but no matchmaking or cross-play, throwing numerous enemies at you at a time without a way to toggle between targets, forcing you to chase after enemies hitting you with projectiles when your only long-range attack is on a too-long cooldown, and of course, that $70 price tag. It will be interesting to see what shape Godfall is in a year from now, but I suggest you hold off on falling down this hole for the time being.
In short, Radical Fish Games has raised the bar for retro-inspired indie games. You owe it to yourself to uncover the secrets Shadoon and CrossWorlds with Lea and friends in CrossCode.
For those that can stick with it, Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition is a beautiful example of what the RPG genre is capable of, and it is easy to recommend checking out or revisiting.
