So Bloodline SEA beta was released today, figured I give it a try!
So far so good I guess? Lyz got me a Note 5 for as a upcoming birthday and anniversary gift so I've been playing quite a number of mobile games recently. Games like Knights & Squires from Com2Us, Demonic Soul etc. and of course King of Thieves that I've written about recently.
The story telling of BL coupled with the japanese voice acting is actually pretty nice. There's a "limit break" skill that all heroes can use when they fill up their SP bar and those have their own voice acting as well. I guess being an anime lover, hearing japanese voice acting always feels nice xD! I shall not spoil the story, but the story telling is pretty decent so far.
The battle system itself is pretty interesting. You can select individual target and respective heroes to attack that specific target. If you do it in succession you deal more damage since it is seen as a "combo". You can also swipe to your right for all of them to attack instead of selecting them individually. Once your account reaches lv5, the auto system will be unlocked which is definitely useful when you're farming specific stages in the future I guess. The "limit break" skills for each hero is pretty neat so far, I managed to get a fairy whose skill was to heal everyone. Healing is definitely a huge plus one, but when damaging or slaying monsters, they drop healing items as well that will be sucked to the heroes mid battle, so having a healing hero isn't a must in this sense.
I haven't dived too deep into the game yet, but I haven't faced a "paywall" per se yet where I can't proceed with the story or quest without having stronger heroes via summons etc. At least I haven't felt that this was an uninstall game like many of the games I've tried for the past week, so I guess that's a good thing?
Check out some of the screenshots below for yourself :)
