Death end re;Quest - PlayStation 4

This game is definitely on a budget, and rough around the edges (mostly in terms of graphics, reused assets, and lack of towns fields to interact with between dungeons. Regardless of that, the story is fantastic and paced really well. I haven't met a character I didn't get invested with. The VN portions are a perfect length and break up the dungeons well ( and vice versa). The combat is addictive and rewarding. All in all, I've really fallen in love with this game. After the first two hours, I put it down and didn't think I'd come back to it (the first dungeon is real rough looking, and honestly probably the ugliest one in the game) and the story starts out a little too by the numbers. I couldn't keep it out of my mind though, something about the darker tone, horror elements, and great characters, made me come back and give it a second chance, and I'm so so glad I did.

Similar to the Hyperdimensional Neptunia games but in my opinion it is better with story and gameplay mechanics. Overall, enjoying this game very much

Love this game! One of the best jrpgs of the year. Interesting characters, interesting story and a very fun battle system! One of Idea Factory's best games overall.

This game has the best anime characters to play, great graphics and story line 5*.

Things Death End ReQuest does right: The battle system, the ability system, the characters, the visual novel aspect, the story. Also it has slightly darker than usual subject matter. Things Death End ReQuest does less well: The level design, game balance, forced backtracking Over all, its a very worthwhile game to play if you like visual novels and jrpgs and you don't mind some darker subject matter (and consequently lots of screaming)

Game is pretty fun and the story is very intriguing.

Honestly I purchased this game based on the cover art. A gamble but one that paid off. So far the gameplay and presentation are enjoyable; all points that check my box when playing a game. Worth a look.

Haven't gotten far in yet, but so far, so good; she's no Asuna from Sword Art Online, but then again, who is besides the original? = )
