I see, and understand your points. The reason I enjoyed King’s Field/Shadow Tower/Souls was the exploration aspect, which Lunacid does really well.
I agree with the anime characters, for sure. It was very jarring to run into the girl the first time. I couldn’t help but feel like I was playing a different game all of the sudden!
What did the developer say to dislike them, again, if you don’t mind me asking?
