![]() ![]() ![]() I've seen a lot of backers leave since the release of this game, which I'm assuming are due to the fact that next to none of the expectations were met, so the next installment (oh yeah, it ends with a "to be continued") will probably be worse than Liberation Day if it even gets made. I honestly feel bad for those who supported this game on Patreon, because it feels like the developer just took all that Patreon money so he could take a trip to Japan and justify it with unneeded Japanese voice-acting. For the most part, it's a copy-paste of MoA with a few new units, and an altered (not upgraded) store/research system. ![]() Oh, and remember how in MoA you say a bunch of nice things to Sola and she starts falling for you? Well forget about that, now she's an emotionless drone who does nothing but observe Asaga.Īside from a few marked improvements in gameplay and art style which have been mentioned in other reviews, Sunrider: Liberation Day is just lazy and seems to only exist to put money into the pocket of the developer. Did you end up capturing Cosette? Well you never get to talk to her or try to persuade her to join you (though she'd obviously stab you in the back), as both her and L7NN are forgotten about fairly quickly. You're forced into a romance with one of the more boring girls, just so her betrayal (via Alice) and death affect the protag more, though most players probably would've felt the shock and horror regardless, while Claude, Krysta, and Icari (best waifu) are all pushed to the wayside, and all interactions with Asaga and Ava are only there to provide jealousy. You don't even get a ship screen like you did in MoA. There are only 2 or 3 choices throughout the game and, when you do make them, all your choices (from MoA, as well, which is a small plus) just provide flavor text without affecting anything in the story. Loved Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius? Loved Sunrider Academy? Love RPG-style visual novels in general? Well move along, because this game isn't what you're looking for. In short: unless you are a millionaire you probaly have better things to spend your money on. To close this little review I wish to ask an open question for any passing Einstien to answer: Why in the name of all that is holy would you write a cast consisting almost exclusively of cute anime girls and then force the player to romance the most boring one? It boggles the mind! There are hardly any dialoge options, you do all missions in a set order and there is mabey one choice that affects the story. Such as simple dialoge options, who to talk to between missions, what missions to take and even a few moral dilemmas that took quite some time for me to decide on. Mask of Arcadius had quite a few choices. By all accounts this game is way shorter than Mask of Arcadius (which was free), there are plenty of games for half the price of this one that will give you many times the value.Īnd finally my biggest problem: linearity. And it is strage that it is so bad that the stutering actually made me select the wrong options multiple times because the game couldn't keep up with my mouse. Strange for this to be a problem on a PC that can run The Witcher 3 on rather high settings without problems. Strange for a visual novel with some strategy combat and less animations than the first game. Now let's take a look at all the ways this game has changed for the worse compared to its predecessor.įirst and most suprisingly: this game runs like arse. Unfortunately it was a very different experince but not all change is bad so let's discuss the improvments of Liberation Day: I quite liked Mask of Arcadius and was excited to play this game. Note: It is highly recommended that you play Sunrider Mask of Arcadius (for free!) before playing Sunrider Liberation Day. ![]() Full voice acting in Japanese for the entire main cast Vastly improved art and gameplay mechanics from Sunrider Mask of Arcadius Intense story where one of your beloved crew members is a spy Command the prototype starship Sunrider and her squadron of mechas in brutal battles for survival Sunrider Liberation Day is a turn based tactics game with deep storyline segments where you are Captain Kayto Shields of the starship Sunrider and must lead your squad of mecha pilots to victory.Ĭombining an edge of your seat story from the best mecha animes with ruthless gameplay where every mistake is punished and every victory feels like a triumph, Sunrider Liberation Day is a must play for fans of Japanese tactics RPGs and anime.
