Elrentaros Wanderings Assessment
I really like fantasy, and I really like RPGs… so this was the right combine. I’m additionally an enormous fan of the ‘foremost character falls right into a model new world and switches between them’ trope, like in Deltarune or Omori for instance. You begin by waking up on the earth of Elrentaros, and you don’t have any thought the way you ended up right here.
From there, you may discover the village and begin speaking to the opposite townsfolk. Later that day, you go to sleep and all of the sudden see a vibrant mild, solely to finish up in a classroom. The individuals within the classroom appear to know you, and so they look the identical because the villagers in Elrentaros, however you don’t keep in mind them. I hoped there can be extra back-and-forth between the 2 worlds, however sadly, much more takes place in Elrentaros. This isn’t essentially a nasty factor, though it will have been attention-grabbing to see you go back-and-forth between the 2 extra usually.
I really like the visuals, and the sport itself may be very simple to grasp and comply with. Should you open the principle menu, the sport provides you with suggestions for every part. It additionally notes character particulars, dungeon info, your construct (in addition to any weapons you could have), and sport settings. Right here, you may change the problem. I performed in regular mode. It’s also possible to select to relaxation right here. Should you relaxation, you’ll be dropped at the next day.
The Characters
What drew me into the world of Elrentaros Wanderings was the truth that you may present characters and construct relationships with them. In whole, there are ten companion characters, and to earn their friendship you full completely different quests and duties for them. Nevertheless, I used to be a bit of upset within the depth and complexity of every character, particularly the companion ones. They’re quite simple, and the dialogue is brief.
To enhance your bonds with a personality, you may give them items and full duties they set. As your friendship builds over time, you may invite them into your tent, or have a meal with them. Perhaps I’m asking for an excessive amount of as a result of I really like Otome video games, however it will have been attention-grabbing to get completely different character routes. That method you’ll get extra info and depth about every companion character, subsequently letting you be taught extra about them.
I used to be a fan of the principle character you play as, particularly the a number of dialogue choices! I really like video games the place you could have a number of selections when talking (though I don’t have it in me to decide on the imply possibility). You get to decide on both a male or feminine character to play as, and you may also rename them (nonetheless I caught with the identify they got). I do want you could possibly customise your character extra, similar to altering your hair, pores and skin, outfits, and many others to make it really feel extra personalised.
What To Do In Elrentaros
Elrentaros is the fantasy world you arrive in, and it’s a small city away from the capital of Melvania. Inside a couple of minutes or arriving you’re tasked with exploring the Cave Decide dungeon. I had lots of enjoyable the primary time spherical. Monsters spawn from the bottom, and you may receive objects and buffs by means of drops. Every dungeon quest has 10 levels, and when you attain stage 10, you should defeat all of the monsters to progress to the boss. A brand new “Problem Stage” turns into accessible if you clear a dungeon. After defeating the boss, you unlock new weapons you should buy and improve.
Nevertheless I then realized that exploring the cave was one of many foremost components of the sport. If you wish to do a process {that a} townsperson has set you, it’s a must to full a mission. Every Problem Stage comes with completely different missions. So for instance ‘Take no harm from the spiked flooring’ is considered one of them. Every mission correlates to a process set by the townsfolk, so to finish their process, you’ll want to end the mission within the dungeon.
On the subject of dungeons, the monsters do drop buffs, however the buffs solely final between 4-10 seconds, which I discovered wasn’t very lengthy, particularly if in case you have simply completed a stage and are shifting onto the following one. The buff consists of the time it takes you to maneuver to the following stage, so it runs out comparatively shortly too.
Other than going into dungeons, you may also farm and develop crops. To get the seeds you merely must hope they’re dropped by monsters. Mainly, every thing you want (objects to finish duties, items to provide to characters) is obtained by means of the dungeons and missions. Perhaps I’m an excessive amount of of a Stardew Valley fan, however I’d have preferred to see a wider vary of actions to acquire objects. Corresponding to fishing, or mining.
Again To The Actual World
General although, I loved my time with Elrentaros Wanderings. It was an excellent steadiness between a comfy sport with quite a lot of characters to speak to (regardless of them being a bit of primary), a pleasant soundtrack, good visuals and graphics, and an action-adventure RPG with combating and exploration. I liked the truth that you could possibly customise your construct and select what weapons to have, and improve them every time you full a brand new dungeon quest.
I additionally preferred the vary of characters there are, and there may be positively a companion character for everybody. The characters I targeted on rising my friendship with have been Brad and Hajime. One has glasses and one is blunt and stoic… you may’t blame me for not with the ability to select a favorite! Once more nonetheless, I want the companion characters had a extra romantic route. Or, extra complexity and a backstory to them. Both method, I nonetheless had enjoyable speaking to them.
Should you like cosy fantasy video games, however with a touch of motion, then Elrentros Wanderings comes extremely really useful – so long as you’re okay with issues getting a bit of repetitive at occasions.
