    BlazBlue Entropy Effect is an excellent showcase of the best aspects of the roguelike genre. It takes the core features and expands on them tenfold to deliver only an addictive action experience. Repetition should be expected, and although early boss battles overstay their welcome, they really find their footing after you progress past the opening chapters. So, even though this isn't the BlazBlue we're used it, Entropy Effect respects the series' characters by retaining what makes them so beloved.

    The full 1.0 release actually changed the game quite a bit, so some of the information in the review is a little outdated. Entorpy was removed (yeah I know lol) and instead of gaining buffs/debuffs by progressing you get them in the beginning, in exhanges, events and so on. The Rest rooms only give you health now since you don't passivly gain Entorpy anymore. Also HP Mixtures (healing potions) aren't an upgrade anymore, but you start with 1 and can buy or find other ones during a run.
    Edit: Okay Idk if it was added with a new patch, but you can gain more hp mixtures through upgrading, though the progression system works a lot differently than in Early Access.

      Entropy is it's own unique system, that is akin to the heat system in Hades, you can customise your own difficulties. They didn't remove it, it goes up to 100, but it's permenant for each run.

    I wasn't much of a rougelike/lite player until Hades came out, which made me want to dive deeper into the genre. I played Dead Cells and loved it as well. However, I am a COLOSSAL fighting game fan with Blazblue being up their as one of my favourite series. So, you could imagine my excitement when a genre I recently got into crossed over with my favourite one.
    I logged so much time into this game since early access and dove right back in with 1.0. I finished the main story in a day and that final boss fight made my head explode with hype. This game quickly became my favourite rougelite/like and I hope that more games in the genre take a page out or BBEE's combat.
    All I need now is for Azrael, Kagura, Nine, Makoto, Naoto, and Bullet to join the roster and I will be a VERY happy dude.

    “The result of this becomes one that is the most addictive roguelikes that I’ve played since maybe Hades, but its combat systems are on a whole other level.”
    THIS. The early access version was honestly my favorite game of 2023. Considering it was incomplete, and the insane number of behemoth releases in 2023, that’s saying a lot. 🎮😎👍

    His complaint about the way the story drags down the face paced gameplay reminds me a lot of how I felt while playing Hades, but it's weird that nobody else every complained about that game.

    • @NoisyPixelNews
      @NoisyPixelNews  Місяць тому

      I see what you’re saying. I’ll comment since I’ve played both of them. I think Hades turned into a game all about narrative with deep lore. This game was developed by a Chinese team within a sci-fi setting. Due to the love of high fantasy in that region story scenes can drag on desperately long with lengthy conversations with no movement on the actual narrative just more exposition. Sometimes it works like in Sword and Fairy, an RPG, but here it doesn’t flow well.
      Totally see your comparison, though!

I hope it ends up being available on consoles too :/

    Lots of explanation of game mechanics without stating how that influences your enjoyment of said mechanics. I think you said it had a story, but you didn't say how you liked the story or how it compares with Hades' storytelling or other games with great stories.
