GamerKnights did a full in depth review of the new strategy/visual novel "13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim" from developer Vanillaware.
More:
"13 Sentinels: Developer Vanillaware are one of the most fascinating, exciting companies in the Japanese games industry. Each of their absolutely gorgeous games are wildly different to one another, familiar only in the style they’re drenched in whilst boldly striking out in all other regards. Their latest darling, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, is a brave amalgam of sci-fi, steeped in Japanese cinema and dripping with golden-age mecha anime vibes whilst delivering something starkly unique. The only problem with such a gem is that it’s a difficult beast to sell without giving the game away."
Many overlooked RPGs lie dormant in the catalogues of gaming, but players can pick up their swords and shields with these amazing JRPG hidden gems!
Today Japanese manufacturer ques Q made two brand-new figures dedicated to Vanillaware's beloved game 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim available for pre-order.
Also included are Star Ocean The Divine Force, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, Odin Sphere Leifthrasir, Unpacking.
Hot damn those are some high quality games right there. I've been meaning to give 13 Sentinels a go, just haven't had the time to get around to it.
13 Sentinels is a must play if you haven't. Like, I can't praise enough what an awesome story and set of characters that game has.
Should wrap it up this week (got distracted by GoT: Legends). All the protagonists are surprisingly well developed considering their number. Add several twists, it’s a wonder George Kamitani kept it all straight.
