DD2 is improved and expanded DD1. If you liked DD1, you will like DD2. Here are some of the game features: General - square grid, turn-based combat - 30 chapters (missions), 6 challenge missions and 5 training missions (which you can repeat as long as you can pay 1000 gold) - about 30 hours gameplay, depends on difficulty you choose - if you want all achievements you will have to replay a few missions - a shop selling basic stuff available after each chapter - your squad can contain up to 10 characters - many different characters to choose from - only one of them being mandatory (Gwyn) - if any other character dies during the mission, they will get a small penalty in the next mission but otherwise nothing happens - if Gwyn dies, you have to restart the mission - only characters present in mission earn experience - you can catch up other characters in the training missions if you want - you can't save during a mission but the game is not too punishing, I rarely had to replay any mission Characters - each character is assigned a basic class: adept, hunter, shaman or summoner - each character can evolve its class at level 5+, there are 4 classes to choose from and then again at level 25+ - giving you 4 basic classes, 16 intermediate classes and 16 advanced classes total - unfortunately, some classes are weak compared to other options which hurts the diversity a bit - each character has one unique ability and each evolution provides two additional abilities for a total of five at level 25+ - abilities require mana to activate, mana slowly regenerates each turn - each ability can be improved up to five times by spending essences, essences are earned by defeating boss enemies and by completing secondary objectives during missions - characters develop bonds by performing attacks or defending and being close to each other - each character can have up to 4 other characters to bond with - each bond has five stages, each stage gives you a reward in form of gold or various gems - the gems are then needed to craft rings, you need three gems to craft one ring - each ring is unique and each character can equip two rings - you should try to level up these bonds, otherwise you will lack gems to craft 20+ rings to maximize your potential (10 characters x 2 rings) - each character can also equip one weapon and each weapon can be further customized by two runes - you decide what each rune does when you insert it, runes can be freely removed between missions for a small gold fee - runes are weapon type specific - sword runes can be only inserted into swords - all in all, you have decent amount of customization available for each character, dodge tanks and always-crits are on the menu - lastly, characters auto-level and are assigned stats based on stats growth given by their classes Combat mechanics - characters, as well as enemies, can be broadly divided into magic and physical damage dealers - characters have the usual stats like strength, dexterity, luck, dodge, speed as well as magical and physical defenses - speed is especially important, if the true speed of unit A is higher by at least five points compared to unit B, unit A will double attack unit B - each unit has an attack range - melee (range 1) and ranged (range 2) - the game denotes it like this: - 1-1 physical - melee unit only - 2-2 magical - ranged unit only - 1-2 physical - melee and ranged unit - when attacked, unit will automatically counterattack, if it is still alive - 1-1 unit will not counterattack ranged attack, similarly 2-2 unit will not counterattack melee unit - this means that 1-2 units are preferable making some classes and evolutions less desirable - some abilities can target unit more that two squares away but it is quite rare - from the tactical point of view, the options are a bit limited Each mission is actually a puzzle, based on the map layout and the placement of enemy units you try to get the best matchups you can. In some missions you will be rushed by the enemies but in most enemies are static and they will only move if they can attack your unit. If enemy unit can choose which unit of yours to attack they will always prioritize max damage. The pressure and difficulty comes from the time limits, you are forced to put your units in dangerous situations in order to achieve your objectives in time. However, if you don't like this kind of pressure, you can choose the "Relaxed mode" at the beginning of your campaign. I have to say that if you want a challenge, play the game at the Deity difficulty My biggest issue with the game is the general lack interesting enemies. There are only a few combinations. Bosses have unique rules attached to them but still they are quite bland. I liked the stats screen the game shows after each mission for each character - damage dealt, damage received, mana spent, healing, etc. This screen is also available throughout the campaign giving you accumulated stats from every mission. Storywise, not much to talk about here. I have to admit that I started to skip the cutscenes after mission 15. Blah, blah, evil emperor, blah, blah, wants to control the whole world, blah, blah, we have to stand against the Empire, blah, blah. Although some of the dialogues are funny at times, it was a cringe most of the time. Still, I had a good time with the game.
Fun turn-based strategy game with very strong voice acting, a competent story, good animations, and overall worth the price; looking forward to Dark Deity 3! Pros: --Gameplay is fun, each of the characters/classes has their niche (some more useful than others) between player phase and enemy phase --The abilities are also very fun--whether allowing another slow but powerful unit to double attack or warping another unit out of danger or to the frontlines. The buff and debuff abilities are also great. --Personal skills are actually meaningful and can help synergize with class playstyles. --Nice combat animations --The game gives you rewards for completing supports which you can use to improving your characters --The 'full' voice acting is a welcome addition and surprisingly excellent. Lines feel emotional and have weight behind them. No voice acting for support convos unfortunately, but honestly, for a relatively small market title the voice acting has no right to go this hard. --The dialogue is overall very strong during cutscenes, gameplay and support convos. It was nice to see that completing support convos seemingly had an impact on the endings. --When the story gave the 'are you invested?' test I'd say I passed, which is the mark of a good story. --Every character has their own unique pallet/sprite --Benji Blast Cons: --Some of the characters/class combos are busted which on normal does make the game too easy at times (at least on normal difficulty) --There was maybe a bit too much character customization in-between battles for my taste (weapons, crystals, class changes). I can see the customization being more paramount on higher difficulties, however. --Characters have a tendency of launching into grand speeches in the middle of a do-or-die and time-sensitive moments. Not a deal breaker and yes it is a symptom of the genre, but still, little silly sometimes when the characters act like they need to leave immediately, but they've still got 3 minutes to yap. --I like most of the character designs, but let's just say many of the women are comically endowed. Different strokes for different folks I suppose, but I appreciated that Gwyn's design was a bit more grounded in comparison. --The final battle was underwhelming gameplay-wise --Game starts leaning more into magic-attacking enemies, so physical units will struggle later on (but not always). --World-building is pretty vague. Game doesn't expect you to play the original Dark Deity, but I felt in the dark from a lore and world-building standpoint --Without spoilers, I can see how a plot moment can rub people the wrong way given its gravity Well-worth your time and a really good addition to the genre. For $25 (or heck, when its on sale) it is a very good value.
Pros: - Almost fully voice acted (everything except support conversations) - Fresh new combat and weapon/ability system, massively improving over the first game - Varied characters and motivations, making the world feel more interesting and real. - More innovative level design - Branching choices resulting in different levels/rewards, adding more replayability - Original music very much suits the aesthetic of this style of game, complimenting every scene Cons: - Limited roster of playable characters for a long time. - Again, support conversations are not voice acted, so feel a little flat compared to the rest of the game - Small number of unpolished or missing qol features, which can make for minor annoyances when playing. I've not finished my playthrough, so far though 8/10. The team have done a great job.
I've never seen a game so astronomically better than it's first release. Almost every aspect of this game is superior to the original. - Their gameplay systems went from unrealized to fully fledged - Their art went from unpolished to uniformly cohesive - Their levels went from unfinished to engaging - Their story went from fairly cut and dry to intriguing and exciting - Their characters went from flat to complex - Their setting went from disconnected to a believable fantasy - Their music went from forgettable to memorable There's some moments where certain character development is a little drawn out, and there's a no short amount of ways the player can break the game in terms of bypassing difficulty. If there were also unique recruits based on the route the players takes in the story, that'd also help sell the importance of the decisions a little bit more. Although Dark Deity 2 isn't perfect, Sword & Axe should be proud of what they accomplished because this a solid spiritual successor to GBA FE games. I will definitely be playing the future third release...
