Gameplay plays out in stereotypical turn-based fashion, where your party members and enemies take turns whacking each other. Don’t worry, you’ll meet tons of characters that you can recruit into your party as the narrative progresses. Matthias Linda has created a live and thriving fantasy steampunk world here with an incredible backdrop for a narrative filled to the brim with lore. The other four characters in your party of six include the sly but kind hearted thief Sienna, an undercover princess Lenne and her bodyguard Robb, and a noble lord Victor. He is accompanied by his mentor and friend Kylian as they venture out to find the source for a weapon of mass destruction. But I guess you can say the “main” main character is Glenn, a red haired boy adopted into a group of mercenaries who just happens to also be an excellent mech pilot. Since you end up gathering a team of multiple characters, there isn’t one central main one.
No random encounters enemies can be seen running around Chained Echoes. The game is set on the continent of Valandis, where a raging war ensues among three kingdoms, and super cool advanced mech battle robots and dragons exist in the same reality. The characters fatefully cross paths in a narrative set piece that ultimately forms your starter party for the rest of the game. You play as several different characters, with different backgrounds and motivations, in various parts of the game world. Specific actions move the cursor to the left.īefore confirming an action, a second smaller arrow will show up on the Overdrive bar previewing the position the cursor will be in when confirming it.I’ll just say it now: Chained Echoes starts off very slow and quite confusing, but stick with it. When a party member or enemy attacks or uses a skill, the player’s cursor on the Overdrive bar moves to the right. The player ideally wants to stay in the green Overdrive zone as much as possible.
The bar consists of the title “OVERDRIVE” or “OVERHEAT”, an icon on the left and a bar separated into minimum 3 segments with different colors. The Overdrive bar controls the flow of the battle.
