Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA

I did not buy the switch version as I already bought it for my PS Vita, and since switch is more popular now so I am gonna leave a review here.

Second Ys game for me, the first was ys vii on my psp where it let me loves this series.

YS is a game where you the main character and your true bro that always follow you when going out to adventure end up meeting something bazaar. As story progress more and more character will join in to your adventure harem/group

story wise In Ys VIII you will end up in an island where you need to survive in order to receive help. Compare to previous series, YS VIII now focus on 3rd person view with 180 x-degree camera to turn compare to map scrolling.

Battle mechanism is like any hack n slash game. The twist is that each monster has their own weakness, so to hunt efficiently you would need the character with corresponding trait to deal more damage. Same as previous Ys games, you will be in a team of 3 where you switch in between character, BUT sharing the same mana pool to cast skill.

It is a nice game to pick up if you are interested in the series.

Side note: Ys IX has released but only in ps4 at the moment and no English version. Still waiting for English version

Probably the greatest hidden gem on the Switch. To me this is like a Zelda game but with a twist.

Amazing action RPG. Good story great combat and loads to do and explore
