This class, unlocked from the start, fights using a deck of three different colours of cards: red (fire), blue (ice), and yellow (lightning). Here, however, classes feel fundamentally different, to the point that it's almost like using a different combat engine with each of them. We're used to seeing magic-based mages, strengthy fighters, and healing classes like medics, but in most RPGs the differences are slight what spells or skills you use will vary, but controlling them each works largely the same. It gets interesting, however, once you factor in 7th Dragon's different classes, each of which makes for massively different playstyles for the characters that use them. While it's almost overwhelming at first, we really loved 7th Dragon's character creation tool it feels like a gold standard, and we'd be very happy to see decoupling character art from class selection become the JRPG norm in future.Ĭombat here is classically turn-based, with characters being able to attack, defend, and use skills. Want to make your Samurai a female maid? Of course you can! Want your God Hand to be a spunky, pre-teen kid with a hip pack? No problem! Characterization doesn't stop at appearances, either you can choose between 40 different voice actors (20 male and 20 female) to play your party members' parts - if you're a seiyuu fan, they're even listed by name so you can find your favourites. The best part, however, is that classes aren't actually tied to their art, so you can pick your characters' appearances completely independently of their classes. You'll be able to choose from four classes at first (four more unlock as you play), each with two different basic appearance styles, both of which have a male and female option and three colourways to choose from after that. 7th Dragon may have a pre-set story, but it stars characters you'll make yourself, and the excellent character creation is one of the game's best assets. Part 17: Triple Laser Phase (vs.Once you do jump in, the first thing you'll do is set up your squad. ![]() Part 2: The Dragon-Elimination Strike Team, Murakumo Unit 13Īddendum I: Chisa Inomiko Tactical OverviewĪppendix B: The Boy's Got Wings (Regarding the Events Eight Years Ago) Rea's comments will be formatted like this when I'm not using her commentary like some sort of freaky flesh puppet. I'll also be joined by my cohost, Rea, the author of the aforementioned EOV LP. I'm Kinu, and I'll be your host through this game. It's that LP's fourth anniversary, you know. I would, of course, never ask my audience to read an entire other LP to read mine, but if you have read it, you'll likely recognize some continuity and references here and there. You may recognize some continuity from a previous LP that I helped on: Etrian Odyssey V. The art for the characters is wholly custom-made, by the amazing Kat Langomez, AKA KiraKiraKat, whose Twitter you can find at this link here. ![]() I dearly hope you'll enjoy their stories as much as you do the game itself. ![]() This is a narrative LP-since the protagonists in the original game are silent, blank slates, in the grand tradition of dungeon crawler LPs, I've taken the liberty of creating a cast of characters who will be going through this story with you, the viewer, and acting as the heroes. Why do the protagonists look different from everyone else? Since they essentially tell one continuous story about the same people, this LP will be covering both games. Oh, and also, only the last of the four games in the series ever got an English release, so barely anyone has heard of the series.ħth Dragon 2020, and its sequel, 7th Dragon 2020-II, are the second and third games in the series, forming a duology with several recurring characters and mostly the same gameplay, barring a few additions in II. Where 7th Dragon stands out is its heavier emphasis on storyline and characters, and starting from its second game (this one), a unique sci-fi aesthetic to contrast with other, more high fantasy dungeon crawlers. Both series, as a result, are create-your-own-character dungeon crawlers. The 7th Dragon series is the weird offshoot brainchild of Kazuya Niinou, the director of a game you might have heard of called Etrian Odyssey (and none of its sequels).
