Last Defense Academy makes confusion part of the fun

The Hundred Line: The recent Defense Academy It begins by asking a simple question: What happens when a handful of colored teenagers from their homes, moisturizing them in a modern school full of comfort, then force them to fight for their lives? Your guide while moving in this question is the annoying and creeping amulet that knows more than it is bid, and there is a comprehensive puzzle for the world that you cannot put your finger on it.

If you answered, as you answered.Danganronpa! Because this hypothesis appears like a strange and unfamiliar killing chain plot from Spike Chunsoft -then congratulations! LDA, I still have any idea of ​​what is happening, and I love it.

I will be nice with myself while you are thinking LDA Another introduction to this type of high school title. After all, it was developed by Kazotaka Kodaka, creator and writer Danganronpa The concession, in cooperation with Kotaro Uchikoshi, known for his work in the adventure game Scratch. And in spite of LDA It increases with the DNA of both chain, as it is so mechanically and so much that while I can get an understanding on the first, I was lost with the latter.

The hypothesis is simple enough. You play the role of Takumi Sumino, which was transferred far to the recent Defense Academy, where he and a group of others use their newly escaping powers to defend the school from MOSER attacks for 100 days. If they fail, the invaders will destroy school and thus … because of the conspiracy … all humanity. Usually I go beyond a certain point, I can discover the game’s basic gameplay and direct the coarse narration. When the first body decreased DanganronpaI immediately understood that I would spend the rest of the game to solve my colleagues in the classroom. But I could not know that LDA.

I understand the play episode easily: It is a tactical RPG with the elements of building visual relationships that resemble the novel. The fighting is done in a network battlefield with every fighter capable of attacking with a different formation, similar to chess. One of Takumi’s capabilities attacks enemies in a straight line. My ally, Jaco, is attacked in a rectangular style. Each of my allies attacks contributes to the effort that allows us to use our own capabilities when they are full. If one of my allies should fall, they will be revived before the next wave of enemies.

I like how it does not resemble the tactical fighting Fire logo or Triangle Strategy. LDA Unique, because you do not try to manage the complex shale paper scissors formula for what are strong or weak weapons against each other. Instead, life is the engine that drives the fight. The actions you take through the number of the procedure points, or the AP, you have, and kill some enemies give you more AP. On the other hand, allies who are close to death can launch large special attacks that can survey the entire battlefield at the expense of their loss of the rest of the wave.

Then the fighting becomes a function to play with the groups of life – my enemy and abolition. I will arrange my attacks to the point that every time I behave, I kill an enemy and gain more AP so that I can continue, and deprive my enemies of the opportunity to respond. Then, when I am outside the AP, I can launch the killing that ends the round. My allies are revived in the next round, and I can start the process again. I have left the RPG tactical crops recently, and LDA Fill the gap hole Participation people of fire Creation Advanced wars Recal repair cannot be repaired.

But although I have a handle to fight, I still do not weaken the story that you are trying to tell. A comprehensive confusion that with the passage of every new day, my experience begins to appear like the letters of wartime from the front lines.

It is today 33. Our leader, Hiroko, is still missing. We started doubting that it will never return. At the same time, the enemy continues to throw themselves on our defenses. To date, we have been able to stop them. Jaco recently developed his strength, and revealed himself to be an unparalleled fighter. But our forces are not anywhere near the full force, because Ima, Kako and Shouma refuse to fight. Unfortunately! Our food items have been burned and I am afraid of starvation soon. The war is dark, but I fight with knowledge whenever I approach the hundred day is a day closer to returning home … or so I hope.

LDAHer novel, unlike anything she had ever passed by that not knowing what is happening after that is part of the fun. I would like to deal with the trip, and discover new developments alongside the characters, which are in itself. As other outlets showed, Darumi Amimia is the physical appearance of dirt, amazing dirt and paradoxes on the Internet (Uday), and I adore it even if it was described as uncomfortable at times.

I also really enjoy how the characters are the cartoons that surpass themselves. I often struggle to reach the stories “transferred to another world” because any of the decisions in which I made were not logical to me, a woman who could not stop her logical and delicate brain in order to go with the flow. So it is incredibly refreshing to see these characters belong to the conditions that were dropped.

Instead of just accepting that they had taken all that they knew at all and forced to fight And die (Even if this death is temporary), some of my allies maintain a healthy level of doubt, wonder about everything, and refuse to fight. I know I will do! Better, other characters in the game understand and admit that they are a reasonable position. There is no RAH-Rah speech on “You must fight!” This persuades them to take weapons. Recovery characters are granted to circumvent their time and their own reasons.

This may seem boring. After all, in an ISEKAI -like narration, characters are usually forced to enter quickly, otherwise there will be no conspiracy. So seeing a game that takes time with hesitant characters, and allowing them to work through their comments in a natural and inverted way, was my mind.

In nearly 50 days I spent with her LDAI have some work theories regarding the place where the comprehensive story will go. How to get there, though, I don’t have the slightest idea, but I am excited to see what the game will take along the way.
