Reigns? Never played it, can’t remember what the art style was. Extremely likely not it. But, hey it’s a guess, I guess.
SPOILERS for Shenmue 2 below.
This makes me a lot feel better about it. I was never really interested in the revenge aspect. In fact, after the ending of 2 (or, I guess the ending of what was originally the second disc of 2?) and what you find out, I would hope Ryo would’ve given up on that part. I’d hope he’d be more interested in figuring out the mirrors and not letting Lan Di get them. I’m more interested in Ryo’s personal journey, the prophecies regarding him and Shenhua, and the stuff with the mirrors. Things got very… magical with the sword and stuff at the end of 2. So I’ve kind of got no idea where things are going. I just am hoping for some resolutions of some of these things.
Oddly enough, as I understand it, it’s a Japanese developer!
Very odd game, with some cool concepts. When I played it, the story stuff bogged it down. Could have been fine, but the conversations were just too long and uninteresting (in that mediocre JRPG way).
That’s it! I’m a sucker for games that are played on a single screen, and Train Valley 2 is both relaxing but challenging, if you want to pursue the deeper goals on each map.
Single screen? So there’s no scrolling? I guess I just realized there aren’t many single screen games that I can think of. Probably more common on mobile platforms, like the excellent Kingdom Rush series.
Yep! You can zoom in and then scroll, but I usually play the game all the way zoomed out. As far as I know, they never break that convention, even in the later levels, which are pretty complex.
