The game also likes to give you very little reward for the missions you go on so that achieving anything meaningful can be a full day experience. A single mission seems to be intended to take around 20 min. Compounding this, many monsters have precisely one yulnerable body part to one kind of damage (Sekhmet, Sariel) which is quite small. If you hit multiple parts of a monster's body with a swing (which you almost always do) the game will automatically select the region which the monster will take the least damage from. Even if you switch weapons you'll have to slog through the mission with a level 1 weak blood power that makes you wonder if anything's really improved. Except this entry introduces "Blood Powers" which are weapon type specific.
The first God Eater game motivated players to switch damage types on melee weapons by making certain monsters nearly immune to the other types. This seems to be at least partially motivated by old gameplay design at loggerheads with new gameplay design. To list the broader problems: -The monster difficulty is unbalanced for each damage type. A tiny ensemble of monsters is endlessly recycled into hundreds of the same mission, all of which are "kill the thing". A tiny ensemble of monsters is endlessly A solid contender for one of the most unbalanced, boring core gameplay loops in modern gaming. Especially good deal since it comes with Resurrection … ExpandĪ solid contender for one of the most unbalanced, boring core gameplay loops in modern gaming. Not as good as Monster Hunter (nothing ever is) but enjoyable all the same.
So I'm scoring it an 8 despite having grown bored of it, cause it's at least as good as Resurrection which I did enjoy. I enjoyed the first but I think it just got a little stale for me in the sequel. Im playing it just because I like to diversify and see what's out there. The game has its strong points (story, beautiful anime artstyle) but it's not as engaging, the hunts are far too quick and the areas are smaller. If you DO play MH it becomes less a little less appealing though. If you don't play MH, and are into these kinds of games you'll love it. God Eater 2 is a solid game, and I give my stamp of approval. It is the benchmark against which all games of the genre will (and rightfully should) be compared. And regardless of whether or not MH created the genre, it did (and still does) define it. People seem to get upset when comparisons to Monster Hunter are made (presumably because it highlights the deficiencies of the game in People seem to get upset when comparisons to Monster Hunter are made (presumably because it highlights the deficiencies of the game in question), but you can't not make the comparison.
