Fun game... but only when it’s done right

Biggest problem with the game: no balancing of events when they come to GL from JP. For example, in the current event: For Whom the Princess Weeps, there are 5 EX stages. Each EX stage is ridiculously difficult... there are multiple enemies that can 1 - 2 hit your character and killing these enemies are also difficult since they high HP pools. You have 2 weeks to do 5 EX stages and to farm the weapon shards. Each stage can easily take over 10-20 minutes. One wrong move can cost you the stage and gems if you choose to revive. You aren’t forced to farm it, but when a character’s master ability is barred by the weapon, you might as well farm them. Overall, I really wish Gimu would rebalance the events that come from JP, especially when GL is getting the events much much much much earlier then when JP got them.

ITS AMAZING

It’s an amazing game with strategy and graphics, plus anime in general but I feel like the game should have a thing where you can reset characters by reset I mean get the money, exp, items, all of it back from them when they reach back to level 1 when reset for the ones you don’t use that much or never touched before because I feel like people made mistakes/accident upgrading or putting money in those characters we don’t use. Another reason is when we first start the game we have to use the characters we start with and weeks later of playing we get new & stronger characters so we would want to use the items & money from our old characters and transfer into the OP characters to make them even better. Again I feel like they should put a thing where you can reset characters back to 1, overall is a great game thank you for creating this!!

Gambling w/ real money

Don’t ever buy any gems. There are opportunities to get characters and gears that you may want but it is going to cost you plenty of gems and they are not cheap and it’s still based on chance. You can sometimes get ok characters by pure luck. I have been playing for about 3 years and there are literally dozens of characters that are locked to me, these are some of the best characters in the game too. No surprise. The best way to beat the system is to save all your gems and try for the best chance to get a character that you want. You might have to save a few months or a whole year. But, good luck trying to max out the character that is another challenge after you finally get that one good character. The character is so underpowered it is basically useless. Play the game have fun but don’t buy any gems it is legal child gambling. You are always buying a chance to get something and most of the time you will be disappointed. Save yourself frustration, false hope, and your hard earned money.

Enjoyable Game, Bad Business Practice

I have played the game as F2P since the start. Slowly, I have been amassing my characters, building them up while enjoying the gameplay. I reached the point where I can tackle EX/late game content fairly reasonably. I also have been able to get a decent share of limited event characters, which happily scratches my collector’s itch. Things were going pretty well, even to the 2.0 update.However, as of recent, Gumi has been making changes to the way they run the business of this game that are disappointing in my opinion. From the FFXV collaboration, the banners have been changed from the JP version’s run of the event. Instead of a guaranteed character after a certain amount of gems invested, it is only a chance for that same character with no guarantees. I understand that JP and Global are different in terms of context and audience. Yet continuing to put limited and more powerful characters behind higher gem investments is greedy, in my opinion. I do not expect everyone to be able to collect all the characters, but I do think that those who are putting in time, effort, and resources should not be rewarded with nothing to show for it. There are many others who share these thoughts and more. Look into any of the Discord, Reddit and other communities. These practices are tiring.

Constant Downloading/Crashing

So, I think the game is great. It’s been pretty fun so far, it’s very generous to new players and you level up pretty quick. The only thing that’s been a huge deal breaker for me, is every time I try to progress any further into the story quests, it’s always prompting me to download more and more data. And when I try to go into settings and download everything at once so I don’t have to deal with the constant pop-ups, asking me to download more data to proceed into the game, it crashes on me. So I can’t download the whole thing. I tried to already through the main screen, before it loads you into the game. But it apparently didn’t download anything? Because I’m constantly getting asked to download more and more and it’s really annoying . Also, whenever I complete a new story quest, the screen just turns black and nothing loads. I have to constantly close the game completely and reopen it. Thus making it take EVEN LONGER to get anywhere with the story quests. PLEASE fix this.

Excellent quality. Excellent gameplay.

Update: The current bundles have rainbow shards and rainbow diagrams. I don’t know if this was a thing before or if someone read my review and made it happen. My one disappointment has been rectified. Hopefully players will be able to obtain these items through means other than bundles, but it’s a blessing to have if you need them. Enhanced equipment and mastering jobs is essential for the characters in this game. I did favor FF Brave Exvius as old school Final Fantasy games are what I grew up on. Even though that game is very good, the gameplay and every aspect of this game feels superior. I definitely recommend both, and even as F2P you can definitely complete content. This game is a definite must for all who enjoy the tactics RPG genre.Original:If you like games like final fantasy tactics then you will love this game. I only wish they had generic materials you could amass to use in place of limited unit specific gear shards. So for those missing a few shards for one last equipment piece for a limited unit are not completely in the mud. Overall this game is top notch!

Great content but be careful of the unit you choose

Like many other free to play games, the top tier (those with highest stats) units for this game is heavily pay to win. BUT there are units, especially the protagonists, are free to play friendly and can get the job done. Pay attention to the events and daily quests they will help you earn Real money currency for drawing loot boxes.For starters, raise Protagonists through the story and with units no more than natural 3 stars. They are easy to raise and will get you through out the most of the except the high level dungeons which is more likely where the negative reviews comes in as I agree the game can be unreasonable sometimes.If you are aiming for free to play which means no penny is spent, take my advice DO NOT attempt to draw collaboration units (fate stay night units by the time I write this review). The only way to raise them is to draw duplicates from loot box which is where you will likely to spend real money with.

Exelent Partnerships

This game is very good for those who like strategy and have time to kill, this game also has ways of speeding through when you don’t want to feel like your grinding which is also excellent. Where this game does best is when there are partnerships with anime which we all know and love, or video game partnerships. In the past there was FF15, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, and even attack on Titan. These were incredible ideas and fun while they lasted. However, this is where the issues also arrive. These partnerships seem to be completely limited and there is no other way to obtain the characters other than to play long and hard during the events. After these events the characters that you want had better be yours or your done. This can leave a bitter feeling in your mouth and has caused me in the past to quit this game for months but I come back because of the new events which promise better characters, and the events have gotten easier to get at least one or two of the famous characters. Seven Deadly Sins Meliodas is my favorite. I hope they cycle back to the events or open up a way to unlock the others from past events. It would also be nice to see them update the older characters because the old event characters are almost outdated and outgunned by the newer ones.

Amazing games!! WORST customer support.

So we wont lie this basis of this story is I’m a fool and I forgot to link my account. So at the end of the day yes, this whole ordeal is in fact my fault but people make mistakes. So we got ride of my old iPad and I forgot to link my game long story short I wanted to play and realized I didn’t remember whatever bogus name I made my player name. So I send in a request and I get “Willie” I tell him everything, my team leaders name, who’s on my team, levels, enlightening statuses, send him RECEIPTS of past purchases because I save weird things like that. But nope... they can’t help unless you know your exact player name, 5 names off your friends list (wwhhhaatt?!!) or a grouping of random numbers they call a friend ID. I’m sorry, I know at the end of the day it’s my fault but I mean I had order numbers from my purchases?! You can’t look that information up? Find out to what account it when to and quiz me on what going on in their? You can look up accounts on past purchases at a JCPENNY and you’re telling me you can’t do that when your a company that literally creates games on even more advanced TECHNOLOGY than a RETAIL STORE. Super disappointed because your games are amazing. Oh well. Nothing like losing a loyal customer.

Rose tinted glasses

So after playing TAC since a few months after its original global release I’ve seen Gumi do many things right, and many things wrong. More recently things were going in the correct direction considering the cost ($$$) to Enlighten many of the new and old units. However it would appear that this is not their prerogative as things have gone to a worst case scenario in the last month in consideration to the: poorly designed/one-sided banners, lack of customer feedback from Gumi, and non-interest of the games health. You would think that considering game health in the Japan version of the game that Gumi would take steps to avoid past mistakes, this is not the case. Having a 2,500 gem banner for a non-limited unit is ludicrous. I for one won’t be spending on the game because it will net me nothing at this point outside of heavy month long preparation for a single unit that Gumi will hinder with the next banner release. This saddens me because I would like to keep the game going considering all the friends I’ve made playing it and the fact that I enjoy it. Gumi has out priced itself, and I cannot support that. If I continue playing it will be as a free player only as the game can be enjoyed that way as well. Two stars for that reason alone.
