DANGERMAN Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Been playing Arcana Heart 3 all week, It's a 2d fighter, kind of a mix of tone, so there's characters who play very straight, like Terry usually, but then there's someone who fights inside a bubble, someone who rides a wolf, a girl who's imaginary friend comes to life and fights for her, a demon who drags a little girl around The same is true of the gameplay too, there's loads of systems, cancels, clever ways to chain combos, but equally you can bounce people off walls, bounce people off walls, double jump, almost constantly use supers. It's a strange game You don't just pick a character, you also pick an Arcana, a god of sorts. They don't fight alongside you, however they do have their own move set you can tap in to, and when you activate their boost ability your character gets a speed increase, stat boosts and access to more powerful moves. There's little restriction to using their moves in battle, it's a good way to get a projectile move for example, however their boost and supers drain the meter which usually refills pretty quick What makes it stand out I guess is that all the characters (apart from imaginary friends and the like) are women/girls. It's actually, for the most part, handled pretty well, nothing too internet ire raising. I say for the most part, because there's an after story mode that is all about getting the girls to a hot spring, and your reward is a steamy picture of them spashing about that you have to clear. As these things go though I guess it's pretty tame, Anyway, it's pretty good the penultimate boss is cheap as shit, so I've only completed it a couple of times, but oh well. I did a gameplay video to test out the capture kit too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
