About Me
Hi little ones. My name is Andrés, I'm 21 and I've been playing computer games since I was 4. So probably I could kick your ass in a Wacky Wheels deathmatch.

The reason I decided to start this blog was that I have so much free time to waste, and I though that a excelent way of wasting time would be starting a blog of one the things a like the most... so here I am.

-Preferred games: RPGs (specially SRPG) and Adventures (classic style)
-Crap I don't like: MMORPG (they are like drugs and I don't like drugs) and most of the driving games
-Now playing: Phoenix Wright 3, Front Mission DS, Contra 4 (yes, I only have my DS here in Holland)
-Desiring so bad: SMT: Persona 3, The Nomad Soul, somethin else...

Luminous Arc, short review
Gorgoncete | 1:08 PM on 12.12.2007 7 comments


Easy strategy, light role playing, cute anime characters, god fightings, a bit of tits... As you can imagine is impossible to get a bad game with all these ingredients, and you imagine well, Luminous Arc is not a bad game. In fact, I would say it's even a good one!


Go, Theo, go, kill this cerberus!

But let's explain why the mixture of all those elements make a good a game:
The strategy and role playing mix it shows off is the old school formula we saw years ago on titles like Vandal Hearts or FF: Tactics. And is good this way!
The cute anime characters and his funny histories make the predictable plot a good scenario to see what happen with all of them and enjoy their situations.
And of course, the great battles and the witches tits do the rest.


Nice dress miss titties

The conclusion: Luminous Arc is a very enjoyable game that focus in the most important side of gaming: the fun.

You will like it:
- If you like SRPGs
- If you like big anime tits
- If you like turn based killing sprees

You will dislike it:
- If you are too hardcore to wait an enemy turn to attack
- If you don't like big anime tits
- If you like to scary people with a squirrel mask
- If you don't like killing the same five kind of enemies (with different colours) again and again

One of your images is broken for me. I might have to try this game out though, I've been getting back into strategy games lately.

Sounds like my cup of tea. I'm playing through FF Tactics Advanced on the DS at the mo but might keep it going with this if its out in Europe when I'm done. thanks for the tip.

Would you say it compares more to Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, or something else?

Like as in Tactics has area of effect spells while Fire Emblem you can mainly only attack one square and from not very far away.

I'd say it's somewhere between Tactics Ogre and FFT.

The battle system is very similar to FF: Tactics though the stages are a little smaller.
