Reviews
- Engaging and fun combat system that is dynamic, fast-paced, and considered the best in the Ryza trilogy.
- Beautiful and well-crafted world with connected maps and new regions to explore, enhanced by mounts that make travel enjoyable.
- Deep and enjoyable crafting/alchemy system with new mechanics like the key system and quality-of-life improvements, making exploration and synthesis satisfying.
- Story is considered weak, convoluted, boring, and lacking cohesion, which detracts from the overall experience.
- Open world is criticized for being too large with repetitive travel and empty areas, making exploration feel tedious rather than rewarding.
- The game has performance issues such as random stutters and occasional crashes; also, no upgrade path for owners of the original version causes frustration.
story
11 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story in this game is seen as weak and somewhat messy, with major plot elements and side stories feeling short or disappointing. While the large open world allows for free exploration, the narrative often requires tedious back-and-forth travel and lacks compelling reasons to explore beyond main quests. Despite these flaws, charming characters and gameplay elements help maintain player enjoyment.
“All the original DLC is included in the Definitive Edition version, alongside a new side story.”
“Because the world is so large, you don’t have to stick to the main story—you can explore freely.”
“Many items can be accessed early on to make the game much easier to break and enjoy the story.”
“I'm a bit disappointed with Clifford's and Serri's story content, as it feels very short.”
“Well, for whatever reason they had to make this like an open world game where most of the time you have to run 1500m to a quest location - pop a cutscene - port back - run 1500m again.”
“Luckily, thanks to the charming characters, well-crafted combat system, and fun things to grab and make, it's still a fun time, but I can't help but feel a little let down by the oversized maps, weak story, and lack of cohesive plotting.”
