Blue Reflection Review - The Magical girl RPG

[@inksplatter5559]

For anyone interested in video games with a magical girl theme, I highly recommend Gravity Rush 1 and 2. The story and atmosphere is basically a mash-up of Sailor Moon and Kiki's Delivery Service but in a steampunk society with a darker, French-inspired aesthetic? The lead designer worked on the original Silent Hill and the Siren series :)

[@crimsonowl1420]

I'm a simple person. I see Sophie release a video, I click fast. Even if it's a game I know nothing about.

[@anthill350]

So it's similar to Persona except with magical girls. I've been skeptical about this game for a long time but I'll likely check it out thanks to your summary.

[@imnotchikao6317]

anthill350 Yeah.

[@xwildewalrusx1061]

anthill350 yeah but persona is long this one is short

Yeah but this game doesn't trample over its characters' story arcs 2 hours after they end Thanks Atlus

Just saw Blue Reflection on steam and remembered that i first saw about the game on this channel. RIP ValkyrieAurora ;-;

[@dasmause5682]

I remember seeing this game and being interested in it's artstyle but couldn't decide if it was worth buying over that alone, so this review is quite fortuitous for me

[@lan1719]

Been playing this for months. The little character moments between the main character and Sarasa makes the game worth it alone. The way they both can relate about the passion for dancing while also struggling with both physical and mental struggles is amazing. Glad to hear your thoughts about the game as well!

[@Reydriel]

This game's visuals and visual aesthetic look amazing. I love how it's almost photorealistic but with anime characters

[@elenabeatricemartinelli8426]

I haven't played it, but I appreciate the delicateness of the reflectors' design. it's a breath of fresh air and it seems less out of place, like if they were still connected to their human self and that they are fighting for themselves as well as others.

[@kennethforman5265]

This felt like a X-Play review with Morgan Webb. Its a compliment. Felt nostalgic.

[@holy9781]

Now that u say that,it kinda does lol

[@Ben-dj4jc]

I'm so happy you brought up the UI design in this game 😊. It's one of the first things I noticed, I echo everything you said about it, it's a fantastic piece of design. I'm a sucker for a good UI 😅

[@PhoenixLive_YT]

Thank you so much for this review, it definitely helped me decide if this game is for me or not :)

[@sora5061]

I was browsing the psn store a few minutes ago and i randomly saw this game being in my (Just for you) tab. It catched my eye so i checked it out for a bit. I go to youtube and i see this video in my sub box... Lol

[@AwokenGenius]

Andrew you're delusional dammit! This kind of stuff happens to me all the time. Right now I keep seeing the word 'myriad'. Ever since I played Dragons Crown.

[@akpokemon]

This is pretty crazy. Stuff like this in general creeps me out and happens all the time.

[@AndrewHadi07]

Thats data. Its what everyone is scrambling about as what andrew yang said its the oil of the 20th century.

[@typehere6689]

I first ran into this game on a store shelf. Was vaguely intrigued by it. I later ran into it again during a Steam sale. Bought it during the next one. Despite its bad combat system, I am somehow enjoying the thing.

[@jonnysac77]

This game looks dank as hell, main character seems to be insanely relatable

[@tinyhowie]

Hinako is very well crafted. Her path to regain confidence through interactions with her acquaintance is very sweet and touching.

[@TheHeavyModd]

Always so surprising with the videos you make. It's always a breath of fresh air to see you post something.

[@joseusainternet]

I've always wondered, is your intro song from Burial or someone along those lines? Also you're SUPER underrated.

[@ValkyrieAurora]

My intro song was made by an artist named Aether. You can check out the full track on his spotify! And thank you!

No, thank you for answering!

[@ValkyrieAurora]

ME TOO!

[@dudemetslagroom8065]

Finally a good Black Rock Shooter game!

[@JustinTK416]

I was totally thinking that this has a feeling of BRS inspiration while Valkyrie was explaining the premise. Especially since the MC's regular appearance kind of looks like Mato with out her little twin tails, and the presence of a special blue eye in her magical form. Honestly speaking, I'm perfectly okay with this, although it does make me wish they'd make a new... anything for the series, or do something with the Innocent Souls manga.

[@JustinTK416]

Vazazell, that's arguable, but it's kind of just an old PSP game at this point, and while the gameplay looks... decent, it seems limited to a shoot, slash, dodge, system and I can understand someone not being totally enthused about such a game design. Personally, I would want one that played almost like Nier, being a hack and slash with special range attacks and abilities, with a little bit of potential exploration, be it open world or level based, but that's just me. It does look kinda fun though, and if a port popped up on PSN for like between 5 and 10 dollars, I'd almost certainly get it, but... I just don't see that happening.

[@duelversebeyond]

Max Chen God damn we all need more black rock shooter in our lives

[@donnywhisnu7995]

Hinako is such a well written character, highly relatable and sweet. Most of all, the battle music of this game is pure fire

[@residenthazard5]

This game low key creeps me the F out with the aesthetics alone.... It's too doll-like that even watching my roommate play it makes me feel uneasy. Then again, that's most Gust games in my eyes so can't fault the game for what it is. One thing I can't argue about though... the bloody soundtrack in this game just blew my expectation by miles. Like, sweet baby Buddha the soundtrack in this game is straight fire.

[@FengLengshun]

Man, I just love the Gust games. It's nice to find another person loving them and a growing youtuber at that. Have you tried Mana Khemia? It's their first game for me. Although my favorite would be Ar Tonelico and Surge Concerto games - those are great, especially Ar Tonelico 2 and Ar nosurge.

[@umbijohn1446]

This game is like a combination of Sailor Moon and Persona. Interesting. And great vid VA. I always enjoy your content.

[@sleepyflakes1561]

As someone who gawks over the menu/presentation designs, I can wholeheartedly agree that Blue Reflection's UI and Main Menu are one of the simplest yet effective ones I've seen in a game so far.

[@typehere6689]

It's almost like that of a hypothetical smartphone UI of the near to far future.

[@WaveNX]

Been anticipating this game since its first gameplay trailer and it did not disappoint. Despite its shortcomings it was a joy to go through. The first boss and its new mechanics caught me off guard and got me real hype. A+ review.

Based off of what I’ve seen in this video, I feel like you may 🐝 able to appreciate Persona 5. Have you ever considered giving it a shot? It’s personally one of my favs and its similarity to this game has my curiosity piqued and I’ll definitely get around to giving Blue Reflection a shot

[@user-garnet]

I wholeheartedly agree

[@WolfieKr]

After you praised the OST that much I had to listen to it and I have to say the OST "Overdose" is exactly my kind of music. I will probably get this game once it's on a big sale just due to the fact that I want to see how this music feels in the game. Thank you for bringing this game to my attention.

[@omarninopequeno]

Great review. As others mentioned, this game seems to share a lot of ideas present in the Persona games, and I'd really recommend playing those games you haven't already. I recently discovered your channel and I'm really liking your reviews, so I hope you get to review at least one of the Persona games :) from your videos, I think you might like those games a lot!

[@Randomness-hz7kj]

So... this game is basically Lightning Returns meets Persona gameplay-wise. Story wise, it sounds interesting. I may not be into playing it, but I might look up a play through or cutscene movie to see the story and character interactions. Thanks for showing off games like this, niche or unpopular games, that really deserve a second chance or more spotlight. I enjoy your scripted videos, and your streams are always great for laughs. Thanks!

[@Helder_Mark]

I hope you read this Sophie, even though I know this is an older video. But if you even get to watch an anime called Black Rock Shooter, it very much runs under the same premise as this story (even though its not a “magic girl” theme per-say) its got a strong theme that i think you’ll like!

This came to me when you were talking about the magical girls changing hair color. If you like magical girls and you haven't seen it yet, you should give Flip Flappers a try. I think it has some of the best art in anime recently.

[@AlexaRobin21]

What do you think about the sequel?

[@TheLiamis]

Loved this game. It's was so cute and full of good feelings. Characters were just too huggable. Spoiler.. Hinako is the only one alive which may explain her being the only oneceith eye/hair colour change.

[@LilithSoul4]

Sometimes I wonder if Blue Reflection woulda performed better if it was less of a pared down Persona and more of an improved XCom.

[@charlottevalentine9430]

Oh yas i agree with the awkward dialogue animation. I wish they can just go back to 2D picture in dialogues. It also happen in Atelier lulua , even though they started to remove the 2D art on dialogues from Atelier Ayesha and still happen till Atelier Lydie and Suelle, they dont seem to be as stiff as Atelier Lulua and Blue Reflection (i dont' know why)

[@shayoko6]

nice review, i dislike grinding as well,i'm not sure i'd like the story or characters but the art for the characters are incredible. if 3dcg looked like this in anime i wouldn't complain.

I‘m 22 as well and still enjoy magical girls! Would love to hear you talk some more about the genre, not only in regards with video games but maybe anime too?

[@decusq]

Not only did I finally beat this game but I managed to Platinum it on my first try. This game is definitely one of my favorite PS4 games! The story is well told though does have it's melodramatic moments. The characters are interesting each with their own backstories and complex emotions. The battle system was fun, though i wish the battle fields had more variety in the environment. The music was just AMAZING! And by far BEST GIRL is Lime! FIGHT ME! Lime had her faults but she did what she had to in order to save the world and help her friends. Not only that but she was a demon on the battlefield! I will never forget you Lime! You were an awesome Magical Girl!

[@sakurasam420]

I watched the first ten minutes and decided that I have to play this game. The art direction is so fucking pretty I don't want anything else spoiled for me. Thanks for the recommendation too because, even though I play a lot of JRPGs, I've actually never heard of this one. I've owned the atelier games on steam for a while also so I'll give them a shot as well. Love your content

[@jhanschoo]

I really like this art style. Framerate issues with Lime probably has to do with the hair which seems to be a lot of translucent layers, correspondingly requiring much more processing power, if unoptimized. The UI is modernism par excellence!

[@dizzy900]

This looks like exactly my cup of tea but the easy difficulty is kind of a dealbreaker to me. Do you know if the balancing is better on harder difficulties?

[@SethAbercromby]

I really enjoyed your review, but when you were talking about the music I was hoping that you would provide some samples for us to draw some reference to what you are talking about. You provided a lot of great visual samples for the gameplay aspects, so it would be nice for future reviews if you took similar care when dedicating a significant amount of time to talking about the sound design or music.

[@Sylttia]

I have this game on Steam, and honestly had no issues except the couple of launch issues where a Common map crashed the game, and a few random crashes. I had near zero FPS issues, though. (with an AMD setup) Glad to see another review of this game, though. The music in this game was absolutely AMAZING. OVERDOSE and TIGAR -Michael- are two of my favorite with the three binGe boss themes coming in as well.

[@bloodykun4443]

Thanks for reviewing this. I’ve been curious, but it’s been a hard sell, what with a lack of detailed videos on it and not having played any of the developers’ previous works. There’s no lack of RPGs on PS4, however it’s nice this one in particular seems it’s a bit toned down from some of the more out there stuff. Might be nice to pick up eventually.

[@windsgrace688]

I'll be honest, I had never even heard of this game before this video and I watched this video purely because I love your content. In my opinion, this is a pretty great review and goes pretty in-depth without being too rambly. I don't think I'd ever play this game because of the various issues presented in the review and also due to it not being to my personal taste but it definitely seems like the kind of game I'd watch someone stream (plus the UI is just amazing to look at, seriously give that person another game to make right now!). Also, always good to get random great soundtrack recommendations.

[@The1Handed]

I got this game a couple of months ago for about 300kr/30£ and I really liked it. The framerate issues were a bit distracting and getting every friend to max friendship while also doing every sidequest definitely got a bit "grindy" but I liked all the girls and their stories and I loved the music, especially the battle theme and the music piece that plays before the final battle. That got me good. Now, if only any of the PS4 atelier games could go down in price a bit so I could buy them.

[@EzraGenesis1]

I actually bought this game a while ago. It is really fun, and I greatly enjoyed it! The fact you you have played this is amazing to me, lol. I thought it was so obscure and niche, not many people played it.

[@decusq]

i actually bought this game last month and I'm doing a slow burn playthrough of it. I bought a physical copy and found out Physical copies in America are slightly hard to get. I found my copy in a Gamestop listed in Texas and I live in Ohio so i got screwed on the shipping. But overall my time with this game is satisfying so far, the characters have a simple but complex depth to them that makes me genuinely interested in learning about them. The battle system is a turn based system which is one of my favs in JRPGS and most of all it's PRETTY! The lighting in this game is amazing to me especially when you see it shine through a window or look at the sunset, i honestly hope someone got a raise for that. The soundtrack does a great job at giving the atmospheres of battle, everyday life and the common. I think my favorite parts in this game so far have to be the boss fights! All of the dungeon crawling and relationships you make with the other girls feel like their culminating to where you can kick some major butt in the boss fights. The fact that the NPCS participate in boss battles were a MAJOR plus for me personally showing even non magical girls can help! So far I am so glad I was finally able to get this game and I hope to finish it soon! And it's my hope Gust makes more MGJRPGs! And last thing for me Lime is my favorite and one of the best characters in the game for me so far.

[@ludwigziffer6895]

Thank you so much for shining a spotlight on this game. It was beautiful and had an incredible soundtrack. I agree with you, I would just like to add one thing I appreciated: The normal battle theme. Just as you arrive at the point where "Overdose" gets repetitive, it gets replaced by the other standard battle theme, just to make sure you never get bored of the music.

I recommend playing one of Gust's older Atelier series game "Mana Khemia - The Alchemist of Al Revis" and "Mana Khemia 2 - The Fall of Alchemy " Even with different title, it's considered to be an Atelier game but with an alchemy school setting. They have the best story and setting in the franchise and the last main series Atelier game to have 2D sprites (The character animations are waaaay better than anything in the Mysterious Trilogy)

Not interested in the game but damn you are right that is a clean UI. The shapes make it look futuristic without actually seeming complex to deal with and the color scheme only adds to it.

Thanks for making this. I remember seeing this on PSN awhile back and kinda flagged it as an out-there but overall mindless magical girl game that I might get on a whim sometime when I have time to kill and a bit of a funk or something I want to distract myself from. I'm actually somewhat intrigued by this now, and while I've never been super for the "other world of emotions and personal demons" thing that is present in things like this, Persona 5, and the Black Rock Shooter anime, it's not necessarily a negative either, and I actually did like BRS, although largely for the surreal style of the Other World and action sequences, the likable and interesting character arcs were also a major plus, something that this seems to have in common with the series. I still think I'm most likely to wind up playing this when I want something cute to take my mind off things, but the fact that it's a bit more than that is awesome. PS: I still wanna know your thoughts on Gravity Rush and the sequel. I personally really enjoyed them, and there is some degree of similarity between it and the Nier series. Plus, ya know, the free 2B outfit add on for the second game is just cool.

[@RaifSeverence]

So, like Lydie & Suelle, this has frame issues on PS4 too? Makes me glad I opted for the pc version then.

[@Nirwanda001]

Wow never heard about this game, it looks great! I hope it's affordable for the winter sale, because price is a little steep.

[@GatoEpico]

i know it's a good game and all , but i kind of don't wanna start it when i see the "put the control input here" in a launcher. that's like the biggest "IM A SHITTY PC PORT" flag a jrpg game can give you and i actually wanna enjoy games from this company. EDIT: so i finished the game: -story is kinda OK but nothing too incredible coming from gust -gameplay is good with the bunch of changes you can make with the fragments on every skill , i could throw down every stat on the enemy and fully raise my stats in 2 turns whenever a battle starts. The bad thing is: -you don't level up killing monster , you level by talking to people in school -max lvl 50 / max stats 30 -does not matter if you put all def in a chara , another with def 1 will get stats close to the tank chara you made (wich makes no sense actually) -everything revolves around fragments (items you attach to your skills to raise everything ) , you kill monsters to get items and improve the fragments up to +3. So stats or lvl don't matter much. -battles are so easy that you can win the game without dying once and normal battles without letting the enemy fight.

[@alessandragonzales8190]

This is actually legit one of my favourite games ever, partly because of the two big twists (one of which is super obvious and the other of which is "yo wait what"). I just can't ever replay it again because it hurts

[@therealshadow99]

I know this is awfully late, but I had to say I like to pick up Japanese games that they chose to release on PC in the hopes that they do more PC releases. So when this came out I picked it up. And I actually liked the game a lot... Right up until I got to one particular level which always crashed the game for me. I've never gone back to it, though I've been tempted and I probably should. Oh and I actually didn't feel it had frame rate issues or really any issues on my PC until the crash bug I ran into. I don't own a PS4 though, so PC was always going to be my choice and I have a good PC.

Is it weird that i'm a 24 year old boy who likes Magical Girl animes, i love Sailor Moon and Puella Magi Madoka Magica to this day (also i'm getting Persona vibes from this, Persona with a Magical Girl twist, i can take a little less depth with the social interactions, sounds interesting, might get it while its on deal on PSN)

[@thyrlindberg9310]

Is there a time limit like the one year time limit in persona games?

[@hardgorechunchunmaru9349]

Nice review. If you liked Atelier series, and Blue Reflection, I strongly recommend the Ar tonelico Series. The first and second games are for PS2, Ar tonelico III (QOGA) and Ar noSurge are for PS3. I love the Gust games too. I played all Ateliers released in english, but my favorite series still Ar tonelico (my first Gust game was Ar tonelico II).

[@allanw]

I think it's an OK game and it's very pretty by Gust standards. The music was pretty unique (dubstep in a JRPG). But gameplay-wise I'd give it a 4/10 or less due to repeating the same boring fetch quest designs, and dungeons for the entire game. The combat isn't that interesting. Plus it feels like there should have been more party members, with all the girls you recruit but are literally just put on the sidelines.

[@tinyhowie]

Yeah it looks pretty much just a low budget title with main audience on Vita. Theme over excitement most of the time. PS4 version is like sitting in an awkward position, not sure who it is trying to please.

[@koriy5915]

Agree. It's a 6/10 with a potential for an 8/10 if the gameplay was better, because the aesthetics, UI, music and characters are top level. It's sadly a very unbalanced game.

[@LeonGun8]

You can just ignore all the misions but the bare minimun honestly. By the end of the game you will have an excess of Rating points.
