Was it a successful synthesis of genres?

no, because loading times make the random encounters unbearable. though the game is fairly short.

Well no, if they had stuck to the original Kikuta judgement ring design that they eventually implemented in Shadow Hearts it would have been better. Still a fine game.

It was a really shitty RPG with a great atmosphere.
Honestly it was probably not as bad as I remember but I hated the battle system. Shadow Hearts series were an improvement.

It would be great if they cut the shitty combat or at least change it into something closer to shadow hearts.

The tactical RPG battle system made the game progress so fucking slow. Great atmosphere though.

it's an even shittier RE -like since you get most keys before even running into the locks.

Not really.

But I’m glad to have spent the 10 or so hours playing it. Gives me a deeper understanding and appreciation for the Shadow Hearts franchise.

Pimp our Koudelkas MAG stat, focus down Edward on ATK, and make the Simp your tank or a secondary attacker. Focus those stats. Don’t spread them out. The only other stat you should worry about is SPD and health. The battle system kinda blows so the less you have to fuck with it the better.

Use a guide as you’ll run into a lot of spots where you’d not know where you ought to be going next.

It’s got some good music and the voice acting is actually pretty damn good. It’s got a unique atmosphere even today.

Not particularly. It had way too many systems for a game as short as it is as well.
Like it had absolutely no idea if it wanted to be a survival horror game or a JRPG.
