Oninaki - Review

[@kouyuunt-t5453]

cute characters doing not so good things : the game

[@oi.meunomeejaorampvp5846]

Is the channel owner hot??

[@Striker775]

In a single word: yes. In lots of words: if she punched me in the gut, my abs would be medium-rare.

[@TionsofCoffee2]

My favourite thing about clicking the video without checking the title, is waiting for the beat drop or the squeak.

[@ItsTheBocchiInShadow]

i feel like if the beat drops you know this will be a fire game but the squeak just means she's high on cocaine or something

[@SamtheMan3014]

Dillan Smith what’s the name of the intro music?

[@deevee5327]

"Demons are demonic entities" *Surprised pikachu face* For realises, though, thanks for the review!

[@Weighty68]

Sophie hitting us so hard with the intense narration and delivery that she says “sawwft COLLAR palette” and I couldn’t help but laugh. great vid as always!

[@Kawber]

I love this games visuals

[@alanzapreservationtheythem2861]

Kawber your profile pic seems to agree (and so do I)

[@Wiktuski2]

It's actually interesting to see an evolution of Tokyo RPG Factory games - from I am Setsuna, by Lost Sphere, to this. Makes you excited for the next one.

[@Oreossssssssify]

Aranisus yea idk why ppl attack the studio like they keep getting better and better and finding their niche

[@newdivide9882]

I don’t think you know just how nice it is to open KZbin and instantly see your review of this right at the top. Especially since I woke up thinking about this game lol. After playing the demo, having to choose between this and Astral Chain is gonna be brutal

[@benmcmanus4154]

Very nice! In addition, there's also a demo you can download the starts from the beginning of the game and carries over your progress once you get the whole game.

[@Ironwyrm]

This looks lime what Im looking for! Im tired of epic narratives. Im glad we get more personal stories in games that are willing to talk about heavier topics. Thank you so much for the review I wouldnt have known about this game otherwise!

[@delanoloon2915]

Geez your voice is really one of my guilty pleasure

[@Crazy_Dialga]

This game seems interesting. The initial story setup kinda reminds me of early Bleach, and the gameplay looks fun and has some neat elements. I think I'm definitely gonna check this out at some point

[@lyconxero457]

It's cool to see a video about this game. I remember being interested in it as well because the art style looks cool plus it's an action-RPG which is typically my jam but the price kind of turned me away. From your description, it sounds like I was right in my initial assessment but will definitely pick the game up once it drops in price a bit.

[@rikkuster]

Thanks for this vid, Sophie. I've been curious about the game since seeing it so I may end up checking it out!

[@NaybOrkana]

First, let me tell you something, you don't any idea of how much I appreciate your pronunciation of Japanese names, it's really good. This one was one of the games I was really looking forward to this year. The graphics, art style, soundtrack and story are right up my alley and I really enjoyed this aspects of the demo. But the early game combat was extremely tedious and repetitive for me, I assume it gets better once you have more skills, but it really took me out of the experience.

[@JoyceW-Art]

The visuals look amazing and the story sounds very interesting to me! Maybe I'll pick it up when it's in discount

[@Kobanwa0]

Yo, ValkyrieAurora! Have you heard of Crystar? It just came out on steam... and I think it might be something you'd like. At least, art-style wise.

[@alanzapreservationtheythem2861]

Kobanwa0 it’s basically Madoka Magica with Stands: yeah it seems pretty dang cool.

[@Serani.]

I believe she did a review on the original Japanese release

[@vee_kay7333]

I also got the ad before the viedo

[@williamfontoura]

Saw the trailer just now, in an ad for this video. It does seems interesting

[@Shikiruu]

Just like you, I was really intrigued by the visuals and the story pieces we got at the Nintendo Direct! I thought I would like that game, but surprisingly, I loved the game! Although the story feels a little bit rushed, it really hit me in a sweet spot! It really started with that won, little personal story, but envelopes this huge conflict, where you really get the feel of importance! This game is worth a buy, at least in sale!

[@inanimatesum4945]

The music is what drew me in on top of the gameplay. Glad its looks good enough to try out. Had to push this back to cover all the insane amount of releases coming out this season

[@that1sk8r]

Great visuals and interesting story. Combat felt too repetitive, found myself just mashing the attack button most times with the occasional Daemon skill. I agree that it isn’t worth full price but probably worth picking up on sale.

[@FranK-tg7ou]

Thanks for letting me know when this game comes out no one was talking about it

[@Strider_Shinryu]

Great review, and it really did leave me feeling the same as before I watched it based on everything else I've heard/seen. Maybe worth a pickup but probably only after a price drop and if you're really in need of something to play.

[@SizzlingOne]

Your final recommendation perfectly encapsulates my feeling that this title wasn't exactly one to get immediately on launch. It has a great look, but if earlier concerns with story pacing as well are anything to go by; then this waiting for a sale is even more warranted.

[@T8-TR]

My biggest issue is that TGS games are way too expensive for what they're providing. I am Setsuna and Lost Sphear weren't bad, but they were so average for their asking price at launch. Same goes for this game. They're like 39.99 CAD devs selling games at 59.99 CAD.

[@mathewhosier9739]

It's a $50 game that you can easily get 50-60 hours out of, stop speedrunning and only doing the main quests, if you don't want to complete the game then maybe it isn't for you, that's the best thing about the gaming industry, play games you want to play and ignore the rest, stop worrying about shallow things like trophies and only playing whats popular, get off the bandwagon and just play what you enjoy, this is why I research every game before buying it so I'll know if I'll enjoy it

[@falconflayer]

Thank you for the review, this now helped me to confirm that I really want this game 😁

[@HectorCanceler]

Good review, made me interested in checking it out.

[@JC-cb8oi]

Dat editing tho. Great job! Definitely getting this game, but I’m a physical collector, so it will have to be imported.

[@9MANU71]

Thanks again for showing me a game that i would have missed and regread it later

[@pixlman]

God I NEED that soundtrack

[@Agita_Offline]

While playing Game, I was amazed how everyone was dying all the time XD But game is beautifull. Great times

[@Suzakuux]

I really enjoyed the demo but yeah, the price is a bit high and there were too many other releases I wanted a little more around it so I'm waiting for a sale before I check it out. Good review, it's nice to see someone saying something good about the game. I've seen several other reviews really hate on it.

[@BrosGaminCorner]

Fantastic as always 😍😍😍😍

[@herebyhereby2874]

Damn I really wanna play this now

[@exh3ll]

I really wish it was longer and with a bigger world, it had so much potential.

[@HybridAngelZero]

Definitely a must-own for me,but this, Collection of Mana, Crystar and Astral Chain all coming out so close to each other is making my bank account cry

[@PleaseNoOhGodNo]

played the demo and when i got to the parents and saw how it ends i was like "WHOA WTF"

[@TheDarKris]

I played the demo, liked it, but knew I didn’t want to spend $50 on it so I did in fact get it on sale. Today

[@emperor.of.west21]

like throwback in nds era when I play game similiar to this

[@XxXDarkOmegaZeroXxX]

Another banger video

[@zenzonerzz4789]

How could you watch it in a minute?

[@Zayindjejfj]

@@zenzonerzz4789 That's the power of ultra instinct.

[@XxXDarkOmegaZeroXxX]

Dude I come from the future I've already seen it

[@zeet8251]

You should 100% do a venture for Astral Chain, I think you’d really enjoy it

[@marcusanderson9042]

Very accurate review. I found myself skipping a lot because all you really needed was a sentence or to of dialogue to get pretty much the main idea of what's going on and going to happen. The end game is where its at though, as does away with all the "story" chafe.

[@CoolVids19]

Yay a video review.

[@gamersxpro1234]

Can’t wait to cry again

[@DexMaster881]

Sofi needs to play Tales of Berseria.

[@jaulloa21]

I would have missed this game completely, luckily, I saw the demo and I was bored. Now I’m intrigued by this game. :)

[@pesmerga4862]

i platinumed their first two titles and working on this one... keep it up trpgf

[@zzicefficzz8384]

Oh yes new content :0 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@andrewcruz7997]

Excellent Reviewer You Are ")

[@gavinn.7272]

Love the review, thanks a bunch, do you think you can do one on Astral Chain? I'd love to know your opinion.

[@13PB-wren]

She's streaming Astral Chain on twitch BTW.

[@jinkisaragi874]

The main character is a dude with white hair, wears a mask in front of his mouth most of the time, has one red eye and one normal eye, is pretty strong and has a dark past. And his name is kagachi....i get the feeling the developers really like a certain Anime.

[@ruth540]

My good bro . . This game is tormenting me with the things & decisions it forces me to take . . Everytime something sad or desolate or messed up happens, I have to automatically run to whine to my best friend . . Just . . *MY HEART* 😭

[@khayriivery1020]

So it's Bleach the video game, where you change your zanpakuto on the fly. Sounds good!

[@kiddyvilin]

i wish the story is longer. its got lots of potential.

[@soldatheero]

wow this game sounds super cool. I have to genuinely believe in reincarnation and survival of consciousness after death so i love stories with these kinds of concepts and feel I have been craving something like this.

[@Kasaaz]

Tokyo RPG Factory's motto should be, "It was... okay!"

[@apokaliptoh4709]

Interesting, I might give this a go now. Thank you

[@miguelmonteiro2761]

Great video lass keep doing what you're doing Sophie

[@kwozvalk2691]

oh boy can't wait for sales

[@strayangel9582]

Are you gonna review crystar when it comes out?

[@doogelyjim8627]

it's so prettyyy

[@Rubix78]

Will be getting once it drops, just started Astral Chain, check it out

[@mrsadtree]

I'm picking my copy up today!!

[@topa4spg]

I am playing the game too in Manic mode at my first playthrough. It's more engaging like that. And nearly final boss, I think. For story wise, I like it, but it's not for everyone.

[@WiseSilverWolf]

Love your reviews :-)

[@TheShugoBR]

thanks for that review o.o' i got the game, i plan to finish it, can have hope that you will review Crystar too? XD

[@RamblePak64]

I got to play the demo on the Switch, which seems to have some performance issues even when docked so I'd probably recommend PS4 or PC version. I actually ended up trying the demo on Hard as I found the base combat pretty easy, but when I hit that first boss I found the enemy pretty strong without a consistently working evade. I think it's supposed to be A button? (X button on PS4) but any time I pressed it, nothing happened. That had me wondering if I wanted to spend the full price on the game. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it, and will probably get it at a lower price-point, despite really wanting to support Tokyo RPG Factory. Curiously, I just got Crystar last Tuesday, another mid-budget action RPG where reincarnation factors heavily into the plot. It made a far better first impression, and I'm curious if you're looking to give that one a whirl as well since it seems right up your alley. Coincidentally, an ad for the game popped up right as your video concluded.

[@AdriceJay]

Pls do a review of Crystar! 😍

[@angel_jojo]

I would love you to do a Romancing Saga video, if you're familiar with that series! :)

[@giemski123]

Whats the name of the outro?

[@kenshinhimura9619]

I just finished the game Control and holy cow what an insanely fun and weird game it was. I think you will enjoy playing it even if you mostly post rpg games content. Give it a shot.

[@YerA5s]

played the demo them killing the parents got to me.

[@Masquerade98]

what happened to your instagram??? :(

[@williamtai6383]

No more

[@Masquerade98]

William Tai okay obv but why

[@williamtai6383]

She don't feel like doing it anymore,you will know if u followed her tumblr

[@Konfiusion]

are you going to play Astral Chain?

[@herebyhereby2874]

Are you going to play the dark pictures anthology: man of Medan?

[@lynkedworld]

The reason why I couldn't stand the demo was a lack of general subtitles or anything that allowed me to understand what the hell was being said outside of cutscenes or text boxes

[@thatmotivatedchris6749]

Will you play Tales of berseria anytime soon ?

[@nghtspawn651]

Ventures right now.

[@mmanzo11]

What's the name of the song for the intro?

[@0-Noony-0]

Appropriately named 'Valkyrie' 😛

[@Playzon]

What emotion turns you into a monster penguin?

[@Sundel_Marlutte]

I got the demo and I found the more upgrades you give your Daemons the better the combat feels, because in my opinion, the combat before getting upgrades doesn't flow super well. The story seems extremely interesting however.

[@Nightmare77110]

You think we might get a ff7 ventures when that comes out?

[@MrReaper071]

I am Setsuna and Lost Sphear were made by these people? Ok, I've downloaded a demo for Lost Sphear, played fifteen minutes once the gameplay started and was so bored I couldn't continue. Same thing for Oninaki. I wasn't wowed by what little I played of I am Setsuna at a buddy's. I had NO idea these all had the same developer.

[@implicationsunpleasant3568]

7:27 Was that a nod to something? or was it just your accent coming through. (I'm not trying to sound like a dick, apologies if this comes off as dickish)

[@ChiDante]

Yes. As you say i shall do *buys it at big japan sale

[@hitokitty]

What system did you play on?

[@just.another.guy.2343]

I dowloaded and played the demo a couple of days ago on switch, and I must say, the best thing about it was the gameplay, because: The load times of the game were really bothersome, compared to other games like BOTW, Mario:Odyssey, this one felt really badly optimized The frame drops in the game were very noticeable and quite annoying There was no music whatsoever. Upon playing for the first time, me and my friend kept remarking how silent the game was, and took it for an intended feature, until we hit the main town, which did have a soundtrack, but upon returning to said town, there was no music, I checked to see if there were maybe a special event or something but after reloading the area, we noticed it was an audio bug, and assumed it plagued the entire game, which Valkerie's claim of a great soundstrack leads me to believe a big bug is the case Overall, I wanted to like the game, its very pretty, the combat remind me of the old DS games I used to play when younger, and the dark story tickles my fancy for dark fantasy, but everything else felt, so crudely made, I'll have to keep an eye on it but I must say my interest dropped like Italy against Green Day.

[@ryuichiro.sakuraba]

Hm. Character design is nice and the menu aesthetics kinda give me the mobile game LayereD Stories 0 (which was discontinued, sadly).

[@L.EduardoCand]

Do a review of CRYSTAR, plz

[@ThatDamnGato]

I didn't see this coming-

[@SeanWilsonMusic]

Will Tokyo RPG Factory ever make a "Great" game?

[@xbb1024]

Probably not, they're probably resource constrained from Square's more priority projects.

[@Kairikey]

Tbh, the only cute thing in this game that I see so far is just the character models and some color palete. The logo and the character portrait is a huge giveaway of this game's tone for me.

[@MrXMysteriousX]

So without spoilers is it a definite buy for a RPG fan? I'd like to watch your vid but i am a stickler for spoilers

[@Revoa_]

You can just watch the video it only has a few charaters and enemies/places you find later but no story spoillers(what story "spoillers" are shown are just in the first hour and a half)

[@MrXMysteriousX]

@@Revoa_ thanks

[@A8EL]

so u´ve got a stand?

[@HimmelWeint]

I just have to say wow your pronunciation of Japanese names are good.

[@KilterNazkre09]

I was hoping for a story but that price is a bit much for the length yeah

[@flabimbuthecourtjester8610]

ASMR in the future?

[@HH-mf8qz]

Nice

[@LeMasterofSwords]

Does anyone else think some of the health bars look just like the ones in Nier?

[@matthewmelange]

You still do reviews? I thought it was just clips of your lp now

[@derail7493]

Glad to know I'm 4 mins on time Also can't wait for a possible astral chain review (Big HINT HINT)

[@tsaqif1249]

If this game looks like NieR:Automata will gonna be cool

[@akumakami9727]

In ways, this game reminds me of Shining Force EXE? On ps2. Think I may get it next time it's on sale :).
