...just so I could recognize who should do what in battle."
- Game Informer, Etrian Odyssey review
Me, thinking of the future we are leaving to our children: :'(
-
Sounds about right. I like some story to give me direction at least. Does the game tell me what to do? Like a questbook?
-
Is this the game where you have to draw your own maps or some shit like in the C64 RPG days?
-
Maybe the author was trying to make a point about how generic and devoid of personality the game in question is.
-
EGM trashed this game too... I don't care, I'm still gonna get it.
-
Etrian is not the type of game that would sell to anyone in the first place. I expected reviewers to hate it.
Devoid of personality? No. Get out of here.

Izuna got trashed by EGM in a review that was downright childish. It was just this big rant that boiled down to I H8 ROGUELIKES OMG FUCK EM ALL BURN BURN

That video did nothing but turn me off from this game. I thought you guys were supposed to pimp this stuff? Why is there a battle transition considering those graphics? Be real now, even Shining in the Darkness didn't do this. Not to mention Mazes of Fate.
It looked like you could choose a class, I dont understand why the person named them Fight and Heal. Or does the game have static characters (for story purposes)?

You know, I like dungeon crawlers a lot myself, but the whole "FIRST PERSON BATTLES IN TURN BASED RPG WHERE THE ENEMY DOESN'T MOVE AND YOU CAN'T SEE ANY ATTACKS AT ALL!!!" stuff is boring as fuck. Didn't know Etrian was like that at all. Turn off. I'm not a graphics whore, but I DO like SOMETHING going on in battles. GAWD DAMN.
