So, Anyone else playing this?
Took the plunge with this as it was giving me Dynasty Tactics vibes, I was wrong. My own fault really as I didn't look at any pre-release information.
For those not familiar with the standard tactics games, at a glance they look very similar. Grid based battles with all your favorite warriors! This new game doesn't seem to have the depth of the past games, For instance you could position certain units around the map and set off huge chain reactions of skills that was decimate everyone on the map.

This video kind of demonstrates what it was like, with added bonus' of the skills moving units around the battlefield provided they aren't boxed in like above.
I've played the new version for around 8 hours and the game says i'm 20% complete so I hope its revealed all of its features to me by now, but i'm just not feeling it. So far I've found the attacks to be lackluster with the only differences being higher attack numbers and different area of effects. Nothing that moves units around or really inflict status ailments that I can notice although there are skills that inflict these but I've yet to see any actually do anything.
This is probably a very uneducated comparison as I've only played very small amounts, But the game I feel this has the most parallels to is Fire Emblem so far it seems to have baseline weapon and upgrade system and combat which is closer to Fire Emblem than Dynasty Tactics.
I'm enjoying the game as a whole but with it being a full priced release and digital only in the UK its abit of a tough sell. So has anyone else picked this up and have anything to share?
