Banner of the Maid is epic. Love that it uses real life characters and battle locations from the Napoleonic era. There are a few frustrating difficulty spikes, but well worth playing. And loving the art style.

It's on PS4 where I think I played half of it, but haven't completed it yet due to frustration over the terrain vs. natural character movement spaces. I think it's fun but some characters have classes like cannoneer which you get four squares of movement for but then get cut in half whether on a sunny map or not. Versus cavaliers just get straight up six and ignore that most of the time. Long story short positioning can be bad in game.

I'm also really curious about Astlibra Revision, never heard of this game and got my attention immediately

The reason Blacksmith of the Sand Kingdom looks so good is because it was made by RIdeon, the developers of Mercenaries and the recent Cross Tails. They are a budget developer, but they put more effort into their games than some of the other Kemco developers. IMOIMO of course. I don't hate Kemco as much as others do, but they have kinda earned their reputation.

I'm not saying it's better then blacksmith of the sand kingdom but I enjoyed it more for personal taste as I liked running a pub better the being a blacksmith. Also moonlighter does the same thing but I'm sure you have had to played that one.

The only things I don't like about SAO Fatal Bullet are the movie long cutscenes early on, the childhood friend we know nothing about, and seeing the whole cast thrown at us early on. Personally I'd be happier if a SAO game didn't have any of the cast in the game or at least just running into them occasionally as we're adventuring and not have them integral to our story. I'd just like to see a new perspective and just have minimal involvement with them at most. And if people like their involvement leave it in as an option. But the less I see them the more immersed and sense of accomplishment I'll have as I progress
