Radiant Historia
Normally I only do previews on games I
have personally played. However after spending an hour attending an
Atlus press event I am comfortable enough to write something intelligent
(or somewhat intelligent) on Radiant Historia. You have probably see
coverage of this role playing game for months on Family Friendly Gaming.
You may be interested about Radiant Historia. You might even be thinking
about purchasing it on February 22, in the year of our Lord 2011. Now is
the time to get excited about this Nintendo DS role playing game. The
time traveling aspect of this game is amazing. There are numerous points
where decisions are made, and they branch into different histories. Some
of these are dead ends, like the death of your team. Which will also
answer the question of multiple endings. Yes there are multiple endings,
many of them grim. The music is exceptional, and stands out in this hand
held game. Radiant Historia contains a soundtrack CD which also stood
out at the Atlus press event. The graphics look nice, although some
areas were darker tones, and one female character is busting out. The
battle system is standard role playing done on a grid. Your team can
push the enemies into the same square which is referred to as stacking.
Then attacking them does damage to both of them at the same time. This
is a pretty novel concept, and one that I look forward to playing. There
is also a section of the battles where you can swap the order of the
characters. Be careful though because there is a risk reward there. I
was interested in Radiant Historia before the Atlus press event, but now
I am excited. Lord willing we will get a review to our readers as soon
as a reviewable copy arrives, and I can play through it. Although I can
see some late nights with this game. {02/04/2011}
