![]() This seems pretty suspect for a game that isn’t terribly detailed, but just know that this game can perform pretty poorly in spots. To cap it off, these load times are long, which really sucks the momentum out of the game. ![]() There are also long loading screens everywhere you go, even entering the inventory menu, and it’s not just going into the inventory of the loading menu, it’s going in to each screen of the inventory menu. Real-time lighting causes a drastic hit in performance, which means that the game actually performs better when you’re not using your flashlight, but with all the traps hidden out in the open, it really ramps up the difficulty if you try to play without it. The switch to 3D has not done this game a lot of favors as there are now a bunch of technical issues that really hold this game back. Looking at you, death scene in chapter six.Īs I stated before, this time around the game features 3D visuals, running in Unity. Nothing is really off the table, which means things can get pretty gross, or just plain awful. That’s also not to speak poorly on the translation efforts this time around either, as you can tell that XSeed has someone really committed to preserving the experience as much as possible. Granted it’s awful that my character’s head got chopped off, but it seems like the most common thing that happens in the game when you die, and you’re going to die a lot. Not only that but a lot of them that are simple text descriptions of what happened that end up feeling pretty samey. While they are certainly descriptive and paint a disgusting picture, the switch to 3D visuals doesn’t really sell them as well as previous games did in 2D. Also if you’re here for the awful and grotesque endings, you might come away a little disappointed. She’s not the only new-comer, but she felt really out of place for me. The biggest hang-up I have on the story is the character designs stick out like a sore thumb, especially Magari, who looks like a magical girl anime reject and wields a large scythe, she works for the Murtubas, a secret society dedicated to witchcraft and maintaining a specific world balance. This means once more the survivors of the first trip to Heavenly Host are going to have to cross over to the land of the dead. Meanwhile, strange things are happening in town, with mysterious deaths and people acting out of sorts, something is definitely not right after Sachiko’s death. Ayumi unfortunately is still wracked with the guilt of losing everyone from their first trip to Heavenly Host, and hanging on to a sliver of hope that there might be some way to at least restore the existence of those who have died. In fact if there’s anything this series can tell you, it’s that messing with the dark arts is a zero-sum situation, so if you’ve got someone telling you can bring people back from the dead, just turn around and walk away. So for those who are following the Corpse Party series, and the Heavenly Host saga, Ayumi Shinozaki’s sister saved her life at the end of Book of Shadows, and it wasn’t a happy ending.
