Now this game has been out for quite some time now and even if it made it's own reputation, I still feel the need to talk about it, because it's one of those great games that never gets the attention it deserves, because it's somehow out shined by other games of the same genre.
Developed by the Japanese team called Tri-Ace and published by the famous company SEGA. Resonance Of Fate is an Action-Based RPG that uses a Gun-Driven battle system for it's game play, basically you control 3 characters *that are almost like chess pieces in battle* which you can customize as this game offers huge possibilities in customization! It is so detailed that you can make the characters unrecognisable from their original design.
- From left to right on the picture - Those 3 characters are: Zephyr, Leanne and Vashyron
Zephyr, Age 17 - Several years ago he was involved in an incident, which resulted in him meeting Vashyron who had been contracted to subdue him. He now makes a living as a member of Vashyron's squad. He is very arrogant and introverted.
Leanne, Age 21 - A young lady that lives together with Zephyr and Vashyron. She met Zephyr while she tried taking her life ( commit suicide ) and has joined Vashyron's hunter squad. She is a serene and loving person who has no shame in yelling at her two friends when she feels the need to.
Vashyron, Age 26 - Makes a living as leader of a squad of Hunters taking on a variety of contract missions for reward money. He was the only survivor on the losing side of a large scale assault under the command of a Cardinal, but he rarely speaks of these events. He is portrayed as an uncaring macho or 'tough guy' individual, but deep down inside he endures a guilty conscience and cares for his friends.
Now that you've been introduced to the characters, let's have a look at the game play, here's some really basic game play, from the XBOX 360 Japanese version of Resonance Of Fate called End Of Eternity. It shows a battle in the arena. The Arena is a place where you can go and take on a list of challenges, complete them and win reward!
Of course this game play is pretty basic so don't think that this is what the entire game is about. You can free-roam in the world of Resonance Of Fate -RoF-. A mechanical world that switches from day to night as you spend time exploring indoor and outdoor. You have side-quests you can take when you want, and one special feature is that you CHOSE when you advance in the story, so you can stay in the same chapter to finish your quests, take your time and take it easy :)
Now how about we take a look at the soundtrack for this game?
Wow! just wow! it's a metal / rock soundtrack! it never ceases to please! Here's a preview for you guys, definitely look for more on YouTube if you feel curious! How about we take a look at one of the many battle themes this game has?
In conclusion...
I hope I've got some of you interested in this fabulous game that is Resonance Of Fate. it's a really great game for any RPG fanatic out there, but be warned, it's extremely challenging at some point, but definitely worth all the time and effort you put into it. Great game in my opinion. You can't go wrong with it!
If I was to give this game a rating out of 10. It would be a very well earned 7.9 / 10
The story can be a bit confusing if you are not used to this genre of games, the difficulty can cause one to want to tear off their own hair at times, making you wish the combat system was more developed and less redundant in its content. Speaking of redundant, the creators could have made the world a bit more exciting to explore.
Despite its many flaws, If you feel this game resonates with your fate, you should give it a go!
