Mnementh said: That's just not true. To keep it to the example of EO:Millenium Girl - it just starts with the fact that the story mode has pregenerated characters, as the story needs fixed persons, in difference to the normal EO-way, there you can freely create and change your party. So no, making a more sophisticated story has impact on gameplay, and yes I like my classical party generation and I actually like the guilds of EO. |
Eh, it's not like the two are mutually exclusive. Just have party members who can be any class. Final Fantasy III did it way back when, and I doubt it's the first. Fire Emblem Awakening did pretty much the same. It's doable.
Admittedly though, good game mechanics grab me more than a story, so I don't really care much. Again, don't over Persona my Etrian Odyssey!
