With Chaos Rings 3 being destroyed by ios13 (and SQE refusing to fix it), I'm hoping this will fill my new SQE mobile rpg game void. It is on the pricier side but apparently this is the discounted price. ------------ I'm really enjoying this game. It's my first Saga game and I hear it's the most accessible. I absolutely love the show paced turn battle system which takes some definite strategy. It actually reminds me a lot of Evertale, which has one of my favorite battle systems. There are many options in the game to speed up, etc. Also there's a mode in case you have a giant phone screen that changes all the menu designs. I don't recommend it unless you use an iPad since it makes the text really small. My only two issues. 1) Home bar isn't hidden so it constantly turns on and off while you touch the screen. Really annoying. This actually makes the "big screen" mode unusable since there are buttons right under the home bar. (I wish apple offered the option just to remove it entirely. I hate the home bar since I know I can swipe up. I don't need the bar shown in ALL my apps. It's one of the worst design decisions in all of apple history imo. It's like training wheels on a bike that you can never take off.) I wish I could tell SQE to fix this but with their track record they ignore almost all feedback users have sent. In terms of consumer friendliness, I'd rate SQE one of the worst. 2) Optional voice acting. I prefer Japanese voices, in which they used many of my favorite voice actors. There's no option to get those and you're given some English voice overs which do an okay job. This is actually a fully well done port and I believe it's the first English release of this game. They did a huge job with it as you can see from the interface and the dubbing. The release seems rather low key but it's obvious they worked heavily on it. It's a console game and not a "made for mobile" game.

But wow, I’m glad I haven’t updated to iOS 13. I still haven’t fully finished CR3. Guess I’ll do that first!

I bought 3 for Switch too since I liked it so much. I am tempted to the same with this one and buy it mobile and Switch. I love this series! Dailon80 Well-Known Member Nov 10, 2014 3,574 66 48 Program Director/Radio DJ Eos #11 Dailon80, Dec 3, 2019 L.Lawliet, This is the first SaGa game you have played? I am shocked to hear that. When you get a chance pick up 2 and 3 they are two very good JRPGs with interesting concepts. I think you would dig 2 and 3 as well! solarnya and L.Lawliet like this. chengchisang Well-Known Member May 25, 2018 119 31 28 #12 chengchisang, Dec 3, 2019 Great to hear there is controller support. Thank you. Still upset the latest R-Type does not. solarnya likes this. squarezero Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Dec 10, 2008 13,716 1,240 113 Male Chief Strategy Officer Salem, Massachusetts, USA #13 squarezero, Dec 3, 2019 It keeps the screen proportions of the original game but adds a nice border. ShinHadoukin Well-Known Member Feb 20, 2015 972 143 43 #14 ShinHadoukin, Dec 3, 2019 Thanks. Does it still look good & legible on the phone screen with borders? squarezero Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Dec 10, 2008 13,716 1,240 113 Male Chief Strategy Officer Salem, Massachusetts, USA #15 squarezero, Dec 3, 2019 So far! I haven’t gotten too far yet. L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,405 420 83 #16 L.Lawliet, Dec 3, 2019 Thanks for the recommendation! Maybe I will. I guess I wasn't sure if I would like them since the visuals look very old school and I heard the gameplay was different that the usual rpg. With the price tag I wasn't willing to test it out so maybe I will give it a try eventually. I'm really enjoying Ambitions however! It's very battle heavy but the battles are really fun. solarnya and Dailon80 like this. anthony78 Well-Known Member Nov 13, 2015 3,128 704 113 #17 anthony78, Dec 3, 2019 I’d love to get this but one is the reasons I won’t is because of their SE’s lack of support for most of their games like Chaos Rings 3. Dailon80 Well-Known Member Nov 10, 2014 3,574 66 48 Program Director/Radio DJ Eos #18 Dailon80, Dec 4, 2019 Saga games are deep and not very easy especially 2&3 but once you figure them out they are really good. The graphics for 2&3 are due to the fact they came out a long time ago. Actually that’s what initially drew me to 2 was the old school sprite style graphics I love it. I can’t wait to see how this one compares to 2&3 as far as difficulty. L.Lawliet likes this. Draven2222 Well-Known Member Dec 16, 2013 297 47 28 #19 Draven2222, Dec 4, 2019 . Thanks a bunch Sol ! , purchasing now L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,405 420 83 #20 L.Lawliet, Dec 4, 2019 I read extensively on an RPG fan forum and the starting character determines the difficulty. The game will give you a questionnaire and then give you a character. You can keep redoing it but certain characters are harder than others. It has to do with the allies they encounter and some other things I forgot. I do hear it's a very lengthy game and each character could take 50+ hours. However they said there isn't too much of a strong story and is more battle oriented. Dailon80 likes this. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
