Is Phantom Breaker: Omnia a Gem?

Phantom Breaker: Omnia is a localized prequel to Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds. Let's talk about it.
A huge thanks to my friend Silvermations for putting me in a dress for the thumbnail, haha.

Nice job! Looked this up because it's on sale for switch. Hope you're having a good day

[@gingetheripper]

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the video. Hope your day is also going well.

I even support Japanese video games that have cute male characters too. It is the arching head with tall and round eyes together that is a classic cute design. 2D anime characters on top of 3D backgrounds are just nice to look at.

Its a shame you consider the devs of Phantom breaker Amateurs, when your video itself is pretty Amateur it self. Your in-between skits are good, but your actual analyses is incomplete or just false. For starters saying traditional fighter is little more than button masher is over generalization that can easily be lable on majority of game where combat is the focus. While the Different models can seem inconsistent you should also base it circumstances of development. Phantom Breaker was game that started development in the early 2000 where 2d sprite havent been fully phazed out yet. How ever by the time Extra and omnia came around they transition to 3d model because it became more financially feasible. As its well known in the fighting game genre, something you seem to be ignorant of. Fighting game reuse assets a lot because its very straining to make complete new assets every single time a game gets a sequel or revision. So Phantom breaker follow suite by just reusing the asset from phantom breaker original and just made new assests for the new content (characters). You've barley acknowledge any of the game mechanic that could not already be gleamed from the website or in games manual. You spend alot time on character motivation but not their play style in game which is ultimtalty more important since in fighting game you interact with the character thrue.....well fighting, you focus on the fluff and not the core game.

[@gingetheripper]

I appreciate the feedback. As you've stated I'm not too knowledgeable about general fighting games and I definitely should've covered how each character differs in technique. I'll try to improve on that in future videos.

[@dailylife8901]

Very good review. I played it on Switch but characters look a bit blurry sometimes I'm not sure if that's normal

[@ZeChef9000]

As a competitive fighting game player 1:16 made me physically cringe, all fighting games are different

[@gingetheripper]

I understand, but most gamers who don't play fighting games, won't. That's the point I was trying to make.

[@snake5850]

he called an anime fighter a "traditional fighting game" thats crazy 😭 not watching a second more

[@hhaei]

"simple button mashers that involve chipping away at your opponents health" is hilarious imagine if someone reviewed a shooter and said its a "simple mouse clicker that involves missing all your shots"

[@sicklywickly]

Dog I'm so glad I saw this comment beforehand Jesus that was bad

[@EricVel11037]

So is this game just super simplified like dragon ball fighter z? In terms of auto combos and only quarter circle inputs.

[@gingetheripper]

To my knowledge, yes. I don't play many fighting games so I don't have a good comparison.

[@SSJ2Aydan]

Much more simplified imo. There aren’t even quarter circle inputs, they use directional inputs like smash bros or modern control sf6/moon skills in MBTL

[@EricVel11037]

@@SSJ2Aydan interesting.. i was actually gonna check this game out but thats kinda a deal breaker for me ngl

[@gingetheripper]

Yeah, it's pretty lacking for a fighting game. Its biggest appeal is the narrative. It's still a pretty fun game with friends, but I wouldn't recommend it for people who like challenging fighters.

[@EricVel11037]

@@gingetheripper well thanks man, I guess I just saved myself 5 bucks

[@sonicthegamer4484]

Game is dead i can't find matches anymore

[@gingetheripper]

Neither could I. I don't think there were very many players when it first came out. The active community is pretty small.

[@sonicthegamer4484]

@gingetheripper yeah like right now I can't find anyone

[@cabrafantastico]

@sonicthegamer4484 which system do you have it on for? Most active players are on pc and we do play it in the early morning or during the later times at night.

[@gingetheripper]

@@cabrafantastico That makes sense. I have it for PS5.

[@irasavage1162]

In short.. No
