[@SpaceMagiks]

Couldn't agree more, was so invested in every single one of them.

[@KunjaBihariKrishna]

If someone tells you about the storyline, it will sound overly complicated. But this game comes with a system that lets you review every piece of information and event, at any time. You can pause whatever you are doing and instantly review anything that happened, fast-forwarding if necessary. It's this system that allows your mind to fully integrate every story element. It's the best way to experience a story, and it works really well with how complicated it is

[@di-gun5791]

Most of the complexity comes from the fact that none of the characters understand wtf is going on, not even the supposedly smart exposition characters. Once you get the full picture of what really happened in the past, it's surprisingly simple lol.

[@solgaleooflight8703]

​@@di-gun5791 Its crazy how they were able to sew almost evry sci fi trope possible and make it a coherent story. Freaking crazy

[@licota11]

Fun fact: the composer for this track in particular went on to do work for the Elden Ring OST! (In particular, God Devouring Serpent is a standout track that definitely pulls a lot from this style.)

[@AdarNasiykh]

And the Lichdragon's theme as well. I found this song because of their music in Elden Ring and I wanted to hear more of their work. =DDD

[@Jerrel28]

I'm not sure if anyone else felt it but this song has such a classic Sega sound and feel. Maybe its just me but it brought me brought me back to 90s gaming.

Yes, it made me feel a "Sega-ish" feeling, especially at the end.

[@kurono1822]

For such a great game, it's a shame it bombed in the west mostly due to the lack of advertisement, I knew about this thanks to some random /v/ thread

[@cortesepenteados]

same here

[@Tezasaurus]

"Bombed" is relative, Atlus said sales exceeded expectations. Mixing visual novel with RTS-style gameplay is risky, its two extremely niche genres, and then it's also hyper-focused on sci-fi tropes narratively so it is a very narrow set of potential buyers. I think they knew it from the start, set expectations humbly, and outdid themselves which is fine.

[@TofuSG98]

@@Tezasaurus And "Mecha" straight up usually never does too good in the west.

[@NeurosisOsmosis]

Definitely the best song in the game

[@failedatmakingasandwich423]

I just found out that the composer for this game is the same dude that composed for Valkyria Chronicles. It's no wonder this ost kept reminding me of that game.

[@AdarNasiykh]

You are correct in refering to Hitoshi Sakimoto [who also composed for Final Fantasy 12 as well] who composed for this game. However, this was actually composed by one of his teammates in his sound team from Sakimoto's personal sound company "Basicscape". Yoshimi Kudo is the composer of this track in particular. He's worked on previous Vanillaware games alongside Hitoshi Sakimoto. Kudo has recently worked on Elden Ring, producing some fantastic tracks from that game such as "God-Devouring Serpent" and "Lichdragon Fortissax". Vanillaware has an amazing roster of talented musicians and they all deserve far more credit than they generally get. ❤️ Basicscape ❤️

[@okluminous566]

I wholeheartedly agree. Its such a love letter to everything that makes up the sci-fi genre. Whether it is books, anime, games, movies, etc. theres so much here that I was blown away by the end of it. I didn't get every reference until I researched at the end of the game and theres still some references that ppl keep telling me about to this day its insane. The other shocking detail that I'm still baffled with is that the team is incredibly small (30 ppl about) for such an amazing game. And its written by George Kamitani, who I've come to respect as a genius in creating incredibly written games.

this game's story makes Cyberpunk 2077's story look like trash in comparison even though the themes are very similar. this is what actual creative storytelling is.

I haven't even played Cyberpunk, but in what way are they even close to being similar thematically? Is it just because there is technology in them both lol?

[@smashbother5684]

@@michaelwright646 can't really say much without spoilering either story, but there are some similar themes regarding human consciousness, which I guess is what he is talking about. I do agree with him that 13 Sentinel's approach is vastly superior, if only because they put basically every trope of sci-fi together and somehow made it work.

[@muchhorrorsuchwow]

@@michaelwright646 I'm not defending cyber trash, but Imo, I find it to be wildly easier to make a more compelling story when your core gameplay is a turn based strategy. As opposed to a massive open world that you interact with constantly.
