Fae Tactics
SCORE: 62
Ever since Shining Force I have been a fan
of the strategy role playing video game genre. When I noticed Fae
Tactics on the Xbox Game Pass I decided to spend some time and check it
out. Fae Tactics is a pretty standard SRPG that looks like it belongs
back in the Playstation One era. Facing a certain direction after the
characters turn is taken can be a bit of a pain in Fae Tactics. I
learned to hold the controller just so before pressing the button.
Fae Tactics transports players to a magical world where two worlds were
merged. That means fantasy creatures are transported to the real world.
There are plenty of battles within Fae Tactics. There is also a
branching storyline where the player can take on different missions and
different paths. That can add some replayability to Fae Tactics if you
want to explore all branches.
Magic is a major part of Fae Tactics on the Xbox One and PC. I was
unable to find any information on a physical copy version of Fae
Tactics. I am not sure I would want to buy a physical copy of Fae
Tactics. Certain spells are learned and can be assigned to specific
characters. When a character in Fae Tactics levels up we can upgrade the
attack of defense.
Summoning different creatures becomes a major part of Fae Tactics.
Finding a good balance between these monster like creatures can be
challenging at times. The folk music in Fae Tactics is interesting.
There is some bad language in Fae Tactics. The other issues with Fae
Tactics are violence and blood. We have to be wary or a witch within Fae
Tactics as well.
The storyline in Fae Tactics was a bit dull in my opinion. The
characters never interested me or drew me in. The tutorial took quite a
bit of time. Fae Tactics keeps adding new things as the player
progresses through the game. Fae Tactics never really engaged me in the
battles. There was never a good reason to fight in Fae Tactics except to
get to the other side. I felt like a chicken crossing the road.
