   Ys 8 is something of a hidden gem on Nintendo Switch. It was barely if advertised at all and very few of the mainline gaming websites reviewed it. All very unfortunate. In terms of the game itself, do not let the sub par graphics deter you from the brilliance of the gameplay mechanics. You start on a ship which is attacked by a sea monster and wake up stranded on an island with nothing but a stick and rusty sword that you see lying on the beach. Of course you immediately encounter monsters and soon after you meet your first castaway who joins you on the quest to get off the island. Gradually you meet other castaways and decide to build a village. The brilliance comes in how all these systems are interwoven to create a truly unique RPG experience. Each castaway serves a purpose in the village and it can effect everything from your weapons to items and potions. Not only that, but as you gradually traverse the island, you will unravel a deep and riveting story.

   This game is not to be missed!!!

   Going in to this game, I’d never played a Ys game before – let alone even heard of the series. That said, I really came to appreciate this game early on in my playthrough. I think the graphics and overall feel of this game work really well on the Switch, so much so that I’m actually glad I didn’t pick this up for my Playstation 4 or PC, despite the game only running at 30 FPS for the Switch. Overall, it’s just as fun in handheld mode as it is on the TV, and I did a near 50/50 split of both modes during my playthrough. Gameplay-wise, exploration is everything and I was really sold on the spirit of adventure this game has as you explore and meet other cast aways. The combat is pretty fun, though sometimes felt a bit simple and grindy compared to other games in this genre; that said, I really enjoyed the overall rhythmic feeling from combat in this game, and fighting always had a good pace. While the voice acting was solid, I did find quite a few typos in the dialogue that really hurt my immersion a bit and it’s hard for me to have sympathy about something as easy to do as correct script errors. The soundtrack was really fun and was especially energetic during boss fights. The adventurer’s version of the game came with some cool inserts – a map, some character cards, and a reversible cover (the cards were my favorite), and I really love it when games come with little things like this one did. Overall, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA is a fun game that I like a lot, but its lack of polish in some areas keeps me from truly loving it.

   Me ha gustado mucho el juego, si ya jugaste el anterior Memories of Celceta este te gustará porque sigue con misma jugabilidad, el crafteo se maneja igual pero tiene cosas extras como Raids y Dungeons, hasta el momento la historia me ha gustado. Trae todo el DLC aunque solo son disfraces y accesorios, no se necesita código, ya que ya vienen dentro del juego, solo se necesitan descargar.

   En cuando a la caja se agradece que por dentro no venga en blanco, adicional trae un mini poster que de un lado tiene a Dana y del otro un mapa, además de tres cartas coleccionables.

   Love the Ys series!! First game I’ve played was Ys:Memories of Celceta and this one makes it better! Its action/adventure, the continent it massive. People usually compared this game to Xenonblade Chronicles 2. I love Xenoblade as well but the fighting mechanics in this game are better in my opinion. Utilizing basic attacks with skills to defeat many enemies. I reccomend this game to anyone interested in a action packed adventure game with an interating storyline! The fishing is also fun, so its not all about fighting monsters.

   El paquete incluye justamente lo descrito, un póster, tres cartas (que creo yo que valen más dejarlas en su empaque dado que todas son iguales en todas las copias) y una carátula reversible. El juego es excelente, tiene un muy buen ritmo, es muy dinámico. ofrece muchas actividades pararealizar, todas muy bien pulidas y el combate, aunque simplón, es muy satisfactorio y tiene un par de cosillas que valen la pena perfeccionar. La historia y los personajes son algo mediocres pero no dejan de ser serviciales. Sin embargo, al contrario que otros RPGs, Ys VIII prescinde mucho del “farmeo” y por ello es más flexible y sientes que a lo largo de sus 50 horas estás haciendo constantemente cosas de provecho.

   El arte es muy bonito y en acción también lo es, a pesar de que su apartado gráfico está algo caducado. No obstante, presenta problemas en su resolución, el frame rate es algo inestable en ocasiones y la calidad de las sombras es muy pobre, pero el juego es lo suficientemente bueno para dejar pasar estos detalles.
