About

Experience what it's truly like to bear the responsibilities of a hero in the beautifully hand-drawn Old North. Take on the role of one among six young nobles, learning your way of knighthood and assisting the lords you serve. When an external force threatens the land, you find yourself swept in the tides of war where the deadliest enemies are those among your own ranks.

Overall, Celestian Tales is the definition of a mixed bag. It does more things wrong than good, and it utterly fails in having me want to do multiple playthroughs with different characters … but I would probably be interested in a sequel if it ever was released. Celestial Tales is a beginner’s JRPG with all the good and bad things that implied by such a distinction. Buy it if you seek a somewhat pleasant diversion, but expect nothing spectacular or out of the ordinary.

Celestian Tales: Old North is ultimately a game that falls short of the mark. While it all looks and sounds good, there are just too many problems with the way it presents its story. There is a heavy reliance on backtracking, and there are some important events that are brought up once and never addressed again.

En marchant sur les traces des plus grands RPG japonais vus sur consoles (Suikoden, Valkyrie Profile...), Celestian Tales : Old North affiche en toute modestie son envie de rendre hommage à un genre qui semble désormais faire partie du passé. Si les nostalgiques apprécieront l'intention, et notamment le travail réalisé sur le plan narratif, cela ne justifie pas le manque d'idées au niveau du gameplay et l'absence de réel challenge sur la globalité du jeu.

Meskipun jauh dari kata sempurna, kepuasan yang saya peroleh dari bermain Celestian Tales: Old North sangatlah besar. Saya jelas sangat tidak sabar menanti kelanjutan kisah dari trilogi fantasi yang epik ini. Saya jelas akan sangat merekomendasikan siapapun, terutama orang Indonesia dan penggemar JRPG, untuk memainkan Celestian Tales sampai tamat.
