Pretty great, but held back by a bit of technical jank, some questionable design choices here and there, and the fact that it has to attach itself to ToZ's world. Props to Berseria though, it manages to retroactively improve that game's world while having its own compelling story. Still, something about that irks me.
Replaying this after Arise out of a weird compulsion and hoo boy the combo system is the not good. Hard carried by the story and characters, this game. Just... remake Abyss and this in the style of Arise (the 2 best stories in the series) and never look back.
maybe i didn't give this one more of a chance, but i couldn't get past the village at the start of the game. it's such a slow start and the characters didn't manage to get me hooked to the story. the combat wasn't that great either. i'll rate it a D for now, but i'll probably try it again in the future.
it's one of those cases where i'd just prefer if they made it an anime instead of a game. great story, but the combat and everything else is just not that fun imo.
