As the story progresses, you are able to find additional job crystals that allow you to unlock additional job trees. Each character starts with a base job, and skill/stat tree to go with it. JRPG tropes are abound here and that includes a Job system. Well, until the game reminded me there was a poorly structured plot to be had. The more I played with this system the more I fell in love with it and Astria Ascending as a result. The combat of Astria Ascending is a turn-based combat system with a twist from JRPGs and using a Focus based system where you benefit with extra damage for abusing enemy weaknesses. Yes, they made a game system where weaknesses and strengths matter. Tutorial overflow is certainly an issue in modern gaming and Astria Ascending is certainly a big offender in the space. I feel like someone needs to talk about mechanic pacing within games. The writing is an embodiment of the city Harmonia itself, stagnant, certainly not what will attract one to this game, but thankfully there is way more here to attract its fans. The Demi-Gods, agents of the Goddess Yuno herself, stand up to these foes trying to bring about Dissonance and the premise of this struggle is really fascinating in concept.
Well, apparently some people haven’t been eating their Harmelon and can see the world for what it is, stagnant and decayed in its purpose. These fruits are supposed to basically force those of different races to live together in peace. Falling the same themes of most JRPGs where the world is ending and only the main party can do anything about it, though we do have a forced harmony upon the world here.Ĭitizens of the world are forced to eat Harmelons.
Sadly, Astria Ascending’s story is rather lackluster. Astria Ascending is a traditional JRPG with a tale of intrigue for sure, but how does this game stack up in a genre of world ending threats? Let’s dive into this review of Astria Ascending. Or, at least that is what Astria Ascending wants you to believe. All different races living together within Harmony.
