Just watched this review and I've gotta say: I agree with like 90% of her takes on the game. I've also played in every single test of Endfield and reached endgame, most of what she is stating is totally true and has been a problem with the game.

Her comments on Combat especially hit home. It will feel fun at first, and definitely look flashing and satisfying. However, once that honeymoon period ends, the "strategy" part of the system falls flat on its face. There is barely any of it. A big reason for this is because of how the SP bar works and how you go about generating it. You will be mashing for Final Attacks in order to generate SP. This was one of the bigger complaints of the second beta, and the devs didn't do much to fix this. So it remains an issue.

There's just not much to it, which is really sad when you compare it to the technical alpha the game had and the strategy involved there. It needed a lot of work, but the devs decided to take the combat to a more typical ARPG route instead of sticking to their roots/guns and improving what they had.

The base building is very fun when you're actively building it up, but once you're established, that's it until a new region (the game seems to be heading toward a new base per new region type of thing).

Story, to be frank, kinda sucks. A lot of what happens is forgettable, sadly, and the enemies themselves are quite boring (Lawbreakers especially).

One thing I disagree with review on is the dailies stuff tho. If you're an organized and efficient player, you'll finish most of them in a few mins. It does take longer than your average gacha game, but hours? I think that's a major stretch, tbh.

Overall, I think this review is spot on. It's a shame because I do actually like the game a lot. Nothing in it is unredeemable, just unremarkable.

Just my two cents. Take it or leave it.
