sprite art looks cute asf

[@TitaniumLegman]

The art is really really nice, yeah.

[@phoenix.8679]

If they just sold me the full game (story mode), preferrably hard copy for switch, I'd pay full price for that. I know that's not very 2024, but I like to own stuff.

[@adisander]

If the keys are never a barrier I'm a bit confused as to why they exist in the first place. I'll remain skeptical on that point.

[@TitaniumLegman]

It's the biggest potential problem, gotta see how it shakes out.

[@Jabberwokee]

Indeed. I’m interested to see how this is actually implemented long term, as I can’t imagine they’ve created an entire system to gate progression only to make it so progression isn’t… gated?

[@DerekElden]

If it’s anything like how keys are implemented in Genshin Impact, Their primary function would be to slow players down to promote longer-term engagement. A full 50 hour campaign can be beaten in a few days, which will cause players to leave sooner than the dev would like. Additionally, If players complete story contact gradually, gives the dev time to release more story content without the players losing interest too quickly.

[@RusyChicken]

Like @DerekElden says, it's not that they are "never a barrier" it's that they are only a barrier if you progress faster than the devs want you to.

[@seancarter1014]

Absolutely love these games. It’s sad that there aren’t more. Played Final Fantasy Tactics and Front Mission 3 like crazy in High School.

[@alexanderluna4598]

Tactics ogre got a remaster recently. Mercenaries wings is a new franchise. Langrisser got a new release. Unicorn overlord was one of the most acclaimed tactical releases of last year. Sprgs have been growing more and more as of late, so theres plenty of titles to play.

[@sebastiank5934]

[@BTrainStudio]

I'm really looking forward to this game. Hope to see more videos on this!

[@Jasonwfd]

I LOVE games with both tactical combat and strategic management layers that interact with one another, like XCOM or Battletech. And I like it when those systems require you to manage a whole roster instead of just focusing on one A team. I am very intrigued to see how this plays for myself! Also, I’ll be using both PC and mobile (assuming your account can be used on both, I don’t know why it wouldn’t) until there’s a Switch version. Once I can use my Switch that’s probably all I’ll need

Grats on the sponsorship man. I'm definitely trying it out day one and doing both gacha and story. I was kinda disappointed with war of the visions so I'm hoping that I'll enjoy this more. I mean I still played wotv for like a year so I'm probably in regardless lol

Not often I see an ad for a game thats right up my alley. Very optimistic about this one.

[@drtiki247]

I feel like if you enjoyed Triangle Strategy or FFT; playing through the non-gacha side Spiral Destiny is an absolute no brainer. A free, multi-branching story that encourages reruns. I was lucky enough to get into the short 1 week of the final CBT, I can't wait for release. I'll be meddling in all aspects of the game (gacha and non) so glad to see more of your content covering SoC!

[@Frazer213]

Something you didnt cover and my biggest problem with mobile games is how much time does it take? Some of these mobile games require you to play insane amounts of time to keep up with the game.

[@TitaniumLegman]

Story moves at a good clip, I of course haven't seen the whole thing but I haven't felt a ton of bloat yet. Still early days tho

The art style is great, the music is great and the story was fun in the demo. Look forward to trying it out some more.

I hope the cross-progression functionality works smoothly so you can pick up and play on each platform as you desire. I am confused by the separation between Campaign and Gacha modes, but still hopeful this game will be worth the time. It sure looks beautiful!

[@carnackketral9904]

It is a free to play game, but I am not familiar with the monetization they will be deploying with the game. Regardless, I was able to get several hours of fun out of just the demo.

[@gotaplanstan]

Square just collaborated on Triangle Strategy 2 years ago. It's a fantastic game too!

[@rarzarbex9172]

Thanks it looks interesting. I know you said it but just wanted to see if it had any more specific similarities to fire emblem like green units you can talk to mid combat that join you, is there like a monaster, somniel, castle type location you go to when youre not battling, any support type convos between who the MC and his companions and any romance type ending like three houses or engage? Also any similarities to unicorn overlord?

[@TitaniumLegman]

I haven't seen any mid battle recruits, tho there are NPCs that will fight alongside you. You have a whole town you visit and use when not in battle. No support conversations that I've seen, nor any romance. It's quite different from UO, much closer to Tactics Ogre and FFT than Ogre Battle or UO.

[@reneepineau631]

As gacha games go, I feel like Another Eden was the only game that pulled off the truly-free-to play thing without things feeling like a sleazy attempt to pitch you microtransactions (the soundtrack involved Yasunori Mitsuda, too, so I couldn't *not* try it) If SoC winds up with a model more like that game, I'll probably play it 😊

[@schmiggidy]

I'd like to get the most out of this game, so I had planned to play both the gacha and non-gacha sides of it. Is it worthwhile to take this approach, or does the amount of duped content between them make it superfluous? Basically, what I'm asking is: are there cross-incentives to play both sides of the game without repeating yourself?

[@TitaniumLegman]

@@schmiggidy From what I've seen, it's two distinct but intertwined stories, and you'll get different characters and mechanics in each mode. I definitely think there's merit to playing both, I will be.

I have been looking forward to this game for a while now. Glad to see it's looking good ahead of release. Also happy to see that the gatcha side is not intrusive to the single player. (And if it ever is I will drop the game immediately.)

[@TitaniumLegman]

Totally fair.

[@JaguarPaw1318]

I hope more people are as open minded as you regarding this 'gacha' game. Some people wouldn't even try playing as soon as they heard it's a gacha game.

[@Watdee]

It's not the gacha that will drive you away from the single-player side -- it's the endurance. Enjoy it while it lasts!

[@aeonise]

When I tried the demo for this, there was a weird bug with targeting where ranged attacks would frequently not be able to pass through certain empty spaces. I had a few times where melee attacks couldn't be used, either. I never figured out what was causing it, but it was always consistent once I found a case (it didn't matter which character I tried) and seemed to be based on the positioning of other units even if they were out of the line of fire. I submitted a bug report but never heard anything more about it. Hopefully they fixed that, because it got frustrating quickly.

[@TitaniumLegman]

Interesting, I haven't encountered anything like that myself. Fingers crossed!

[@Admin-rn6ym]

Any info on guild systems?

[@fatfefe33]

I get that the combat is similar - there are many games with similar combat. I would like to ask if there's anything similar to the FFT job system ?

[@TitaniumLegman]

I don't believe there is, no. It seems more akin to Triangle Strategy, where each character has a class and you can customize them from that baseline with a set of abilities you choose from for that class.

[@Mhantrax]

And the music is literally from the composer that did FFT. So there's that.

[@GurneroMaelstrom]

The graphics look dope.

[@seapeajones]

Oof. F2P and gacha. Hope it turns out good, but not holding out much hope when even straight tactics titles have been pretty bad lately.

[@truehonor1347]

The main element normally missing from games 'like FFT' tends to be just good old-fashioned random battles. Allows you to lvl alts, try different stuff, etc. Almost unlimited gameplay before final boss. This have random battles of some sort?

[@FLIK510]

Sounds like you need the DISGAEA franchise in your life.

[@TitaniumLegman]

It does, sorta. You choose what missions you're going on each week, and the non story missions are randomly generated with different maps, objectives, enemies etc. It's not random in that it'll trigger randomly on a tile, but it is a random assortment of pieces.

[@seltheus9447]

Definitely gonna check it out. I can use a new mobile game for on the road after AFK Journey basically ran its course already, ending up a boring nothingburger.

[@mike9139]

[@mistik3825]

I'm still afraid that the game will be P2W at some point, that I will have to pay to access the rest of the story, etc. I would prefer to pay full price for a game and be sure that the game is complete. But hey, I'll try it anyway, I really liked the demo!

Maybe! I played the TW version for a week (at least a few hours a day) last year and didn't hit any bottleneck. Eventually it will likely come to that, but the game definitely rewards you for wise moves. There are a lot of viable characters, especially if you don't care about PvP.

[@charlettmoon2693]

I was under the assumption that single-player would bleed into the gatcha, and vice versa. The fact that you get generics every week instead of having to pull for them is a much better way to do things. I will not recommend the game to people I dont know well, because I can't know if any access to gatcha will get them to become addicted, but there are a very small amount of people I know who can avoid that temptation and might enjoy this.

hear me out; leveling-up and upgrades are often a place where Gotcha game exploit players for money. Also, at times leveling-up and upgrades are the solution to winning and not actual game-play strategy. I'm starting to think I don't want leveling-up and upgrades in a tactic game

[@TitaniumLegman]

The thing is, there's literally zero connection to any paid boosts or anything in the campaign it's exclusively standard leveling. Looking at the online Gatcha side, different story, but my focus is the campaign so I'm not too worried about it.

[@mobius4247]

Just look at Fire Emblem Heroes and how fuck-awful that game is vs other games in that franchise.

[@Mhantrax]

They are completely separate, so much that how you build your characters use completely different systems. On the gacha side you have a simple tech tree. In the single player you either get them from certain quests or you have a training yard where you choose between actual skills (reactive, passive or active) or a different set of passive skills. In the gacha you choose which weapon you equip on a unit and you choose to raise the weapon's level and break its level etc. in the single player there is none of that. You can craft weapons in the forge or get from a quest, but there is no upgrading them.

Sword of Convo is a big disappointment. It's a free to play gacha game that's built like a mobile game. A lot of people were very unhappy about this, but we were told the gacha mechanics would not interfere if you just wanted to play through the story. After playing the demo, this is clearly not the case. The gacha store and mechanics are in your face from the beginning. Basically, you play a few scenes from the "story", then get dumped into your standard mobile gacha front end interface. An over world map which is just a series of points representing maps that you have to play repeatedly to clear with different ratings. You get your new characters strictly from the gacha mechanic, that is, if you only want to play the story, you must use the gacha store, there is no in story recruiting shop or guild. Just standard east asian gambling monetization. I uninstalled it. Too bad, it could have been a gem.

[@beanboi789]

Gacha games will always optimize for dollars per user instead of fun per play session. I'm gonna pass. Theres plenty of fun to be had on this earth without supporting unethical business models.

[@fairtoki1685]

Being gacha game where you spin for a new characters made me think the story will be super shallow. 😢

[@TitaniumLegman]

Story will be separate. There's no pulling for characters in the campaign, it's traditional recruitment. Only gacha stuff is in the online mode.

[@bakutie]

take a look at limbus company

[@panzfaust9812]

so bs gacha? nah

[@anyroad5455]

This game makes me sad, and this new information makes me even less interested in it. If there is truly no reason to participate in the gacha, then why is it there? I’d rather they charge for a full single player game with no gacha and put all their efforts into that instead of splitting it. The poor dialog and small party size are also marks against it in my book.

[@RusyChicken]

It's there because the gacha spenders are subsidizing the free campaign for everyone else. How is that not obvious?

[@sephirothchild]

No, thank you. I'll just stick with Final Fantasy Tactics.

[@brendoncahill7096]

sorry but you gacha put games like this directly in the trashbin.

[@TitaniumLegman]

@@brendoncahill7096 Why? Give me an actual reason to not play a good game.

[@aidanyaman94]

​@@TitaniumLegmanits good game ignore cheap people

[@gotaplanstan]

​@@aidanyaman94not even cheap. Like they could choose to not spend a penny and get hundreds or even thousands of hours free and they still complain. They're really toxic people, and you can see a few of them already turning the comments into a dumpster fire with their misinformation spreading + fragile ego's.

Guardian Tales has something to say

[@FLIK510]

I just can't get past the art style. Every single design looks like a fan art copy of a copy of a character from a more famous game. Like they just straight up stole Serenoa's look from Triangle Strategy for their main character. Some good potential but I don't need a watered down rehash of the same game I've played I've played a million times so wish they'd gone in an original direction.

[@SyperDT]

and Triangle stole from tactics ogre.. lol

[@ageup7493]

Stopped watching when he said “gacha”

[@TitaniumLegman]

@@ageup7493 your loss

[@Oolong_Bagged]

Yeah I'll continue watching but, hearing gacha is a GIANT GIANT red flag. We'll see what else he has to say but, I'm not optimistic. Gacha is a plague.

[@ageup7493]

@@TitaniumLegman sorry, but nothing good comes from gacha. And im sure behind your sponsors you know that too.

[@gotaplanstan]

@@ageup7493 I've made as many lifetime friends from gachas as I have from MMOs. Like TL said, your loss 🤷‍♂️

[@TitaniumLegman]

I was praising this game and expressing excitement for it long before I got a sponsorship. I always played and enjoyed Genshin Impact and Fire Emblem Heroes. Don't make assumptions about me when you're talking out your ass chief.

[@DMT-ix9zj]

This is a mobile gotcha game which makes you a paid shill............J/S

[@TitaniumLegman]

Would have made a video on it anyway, because I like the game. Don't be an ass.
