Ever since I saw Granblue, I wanted an rpg where you fly around on the ship going on adventures. Relink surpassed expectations and is the first game in a while, that I actively wanted to play. There are a few nit picks, but the overall experience was spectacular. It's a shame that it wasn't recognized for anything during the game awards.

I’m glad to see someone talking about this. I looked it up just to see if anybody has recently lol. It’s my game of the year easy and I feel like it got brushed over pretty quick by the gamer crowd. It’s been a peeve of mine for a while but when it came out people were talking down on it because the campaign was “only 10-12 hours” but those hours are jammed with nonstop magic, adventure and visual candy. No padding or played out drama, just a fun as hell game.

Story is extremely short and basically has no story at all. Honestly you're literally just playing a mobile game. For people who like to grind endlessly you'll love this game. If anyone is trying to convince you that you'll be going into an excellent narrative with an epic tale and great character development with an amazing story you will be horrendously disappointed. Ain't no way I would spend $60 on this. Maybe 15. It's literally a game for people who like to grind endlessly and continue to build their characters endlessly. That's really the truth

I'm 90 hours into this game and I still have a lot more time left. It's fun, challenging, the bosses are insane, the art direction is wonderful and it has a kick ass soundtrack. It would be a total waste if Cygames didn't update this game anymore, because I would gladly pay for some DLC. What makes me sad is that it had a very bad release date, because it was overshadowed by other games, even by the Suicide Squad game that people and the media prefered to spend their time trashing on it instead of playing something war better, like THIS GAME: Granblue Fantasy Relink. Do people really enjoy video games?

I mean you can say that to a sub par Monster Hunter clone. As someone who played this, Rising and still playing the original this game is one where it was put too long in the oven. Especially when the gameplay ended up the way it is after them wasting time and money having contracted Platinum to make a build only for the Relink team to throw it away. Story for one ends up feeling like it doesn't amount to anything or will lead to something significant compared to the actual main story or events in original. Gameplay feels lackluster and without depth only having to relying on sigils end game to actually grind or clear the content of it. I'm not saying I hate the game but I do feel very disappoInted that it ended up the way it did after years waiting for it to come out. At this point if you or anyone wanted to invest more into the series and know about the world, lore and characters of the game further you're better off playing the original since evrrything about it along with the characters you can see easily in the main story or the side stories right off the bat without the need to grind anything out. Plus you can play on your PC browser without the need of using your phone in the first place.
@owenjurk3Ай бұрын
not really sure how you can say that when the mobage is just as reliant on stats from grinding sphere grids and weaponskills, not to mention the gacha element. i love rising and the mobage but characters like io play nothing like vane which plays nothing like siegfried or zeta. The sigil system isnt great but if they tweak a few things a sequel would be perfect. and ik people play things for the story but the story was short and sweet and didnt overstay its welcome, which i appreciate when the devs know where most of the fun lies.

This one took a long time to arrive. When it was first announced I was interested simply for its style. But when it finally came out, I was busy with Elden Ring. The early marketing was definitely more substantial when it was announced than when it was released. I'm glad this video reminded me to purchase it.
