The Hero who wields the Ciel Blade will save the world from destruction... We are excited to announce that Record of Agarest™ War Mariage, originally released for the PSP™, will be arriving on Steam® early 2019! The Steam version will also include English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese subtitles.

About the Game

Agarest begins with a hero, who at birth, was given a difficult task in defeating the Archdemon. The society revolves around the mythos of Yiris, the Larva commonly known as the Sacred Princess, who blessed the world and fell in love with a human. Martyred for her love, she was then punished by the heavenly creator. The Archdemon arrived soon after, and Yiris’ lover pledged to destroy the evil Archdemon with the infamous Ciel Blade, a sword of rainbow.

A Hero, or Chosen One, is trusted to produce an heir that can at last put an end to the Archdemon once and for all.

You can make the second gen that.

I remember trying to play these games. The writing is on par with that of an infant!

So it's at least better than poe?

 

[Kruno]

Nah. I couldn't stomach the writing in Agarest at all. I had to put the games down. I made a mistake thinking they got better over time, but it isn't the case.

[Kruno]

Did they improve the writing? I don't need MCA levels of writing. I would be happy with high school teen romance levels of writing compared to kinder level writing of the previous games.

Awoooo

Judging from steam page, the nice isometric combat with linking system was changed for some banal 3d FF-like. And art style from cartoony but still familiar fantasy to total Moe.

Doesn't look good at all.

 

[Jacob]

still more gameplay than final fantasy xvi

 

[Kruno]

It is out! How is the game?

 

[Reinhardt]

Started on hard. Low level monsters 2-shots my characters.

 

[Reinhardt]

Just met main antagonist(i think) for first time. He did usual villain's stuff - "you are not worth my time, my servant is more than enough to deal with you". And... it's true. My characters have 800-900 hp and my cleric heals single character for ~300, that fucking thing is fast, hits me for 500+ with single target attacks, counters almost everything with 500+ more and has skill which hits everyone for 600+. Oh, and he's not glass cannon either.

Finished first generation. People on steam are complaining about crashes but i never had any technical problem, only that game for some reason don't save sound options and i have to lower music volume each time i launch game. But translation is really low efforts. Lots of typos. And by "lots" i mean LOTS.
Had to lower difficulty to normal in the middle of first generation. I'm too old for all this rape. Finished all previous Agarest games on hard from first playthrough and they were easier.
What i really liked is that they did not just killed hero offscreen between generations like in previous games. He got small vn-style interlude about his short but happy family life and epic last stand.
It's time for his daughter to finish Hero's job - gather lesbian harem!

I'm enjoying it so far. Normal is pretty difficult. The different Roles make for some interesting party-build strategies.
