As a fan of the original Granblue Fantasy, I was eager to try out this game and see how it translated the rich lore and characters of the mobile game into a fully-fledged action RPG. I was not disappointed.
The game follows the story of Gran, the main protagonist of Granblue Fantasy, and his crew of skyfarers as they explore the vast skies of the world of Granblue. The game is divided into chapters, each with its own main quest and side quests. The main quest progresses the story and introduces new characters and locations, while the side quests offer more gameplay variety and rewards. The game also features online co-op mode, where up to four players can team up and take on missions together.
The gameplay of Granblue Fantasy Relink is fast-paced and fluid, with a mix of melee and ranged combat, as well as elemental skills and summons. Each character has their own unique weapon, style, and abilities, and the player can switch between them at any time during battle. The game also allows the player to customize their characters’ equipment, skills, and summons, as well as their appearance and voice. The game’s combat system is easy to learn but hard to master, as it requires the player to pay attention to the enemy’s movements, weaknesses, and attack patterns, as well as their own health, skill cooldowns, and charge attacks.
The game’s graphics are stunning, with detailed and colorful environments, character models, and animations. The game’s art style is faithful to the original Granblue Fantasy, with a blend of anime and fantasy elements. The game also features a dynamic day and night cycle, as well as weather effects, which add to the immersion and atmosphere of the game. The game’s soundtrack is also excellent, with a variety of tracks that suit the mood and tone of each scene and location. The game’s voice acting is also top-notch, with both Japanese and English options available.
The game’s main drawbacks are its long loading times and occasional bugs and glitches. The game takes a while to load between areas and missions, which can break the flow and immersion of the game. The game also has some minor issues with collision detection, camera angles, and enemy AI, which can affect the gameplay and enjoyment of the game. However, these issues are not game-breaking and can be overlooked or fixed with future patches.
Overall, Granblue Fantasy Relink is a great game for fans of Granblue Fantasy and action RPGs in general. The game offers a captivating story, engaging gameplay, gorgeous graphics, and a lot of content and replay value. The game is a must-play for anyone who loves the world and characters of Granblue Fantasy, or who wants to experience a new and exciting action RPG.
