An occasional KEMCO RPG generally is a responsible pleasure of mine sometimes, and I’m all the time happy once I discover one which typically stands out a bit. Whereas Knights of Greyfang may most entice consideration from one character’s look, I admire it for its dedication to creating its vampires type of truly act like vampires.
There’s a battle between people and monsters in Knights of Greyfang, a standard theme for KEMCO RPGs. Besides this time round, it isn’t unusual people preventing again towards the monsters. In an try to battle again, the king of the people gained the power from their god to show people into vampires. Those that have that extra energy can faucet into blood from different unusual individuals to entry better expertise. Now, after all that measure means monsters are actually resorting to their very own new technique of escalating issues. Which suggests Princess Leticia units out alongside her vampire knight Lise and vampire sorcerer Mylene to save lots of the day.
So right here’s the half I discovered attention-grabbing about Knights of Greyfang. The explanation all major characters like Lise, Leticia, and Mylene are in a position to principally do their vampire factor is as a result of the fight system truly lets them be vampires. It is because the opposite main character Thoma is a kind of character referred to as a Blooder. That is represented by a Blood Gauge that exhibits how his allies can feast on him to make use of particular assaults. There’s nonetheless MP and all for normal types of expertise, however the truth that there may be this further mechanic actually enhances the expertise.
That is particularly evident when you begin enjoying extra and actually unlock extra bats to enhance your vampire characters and their Bloodthirst talents. So as a result of characters are tapping into Thoma and accepting their vampiric nature, you’re getting this extra wealth of energy for attacking enemies.
Additionally, I’m genuinely a fan of the character designs. There are a couple of that fall brief, like Thoma’s. However although the design for Lise is clearly pulling inspiration from Alear from Hearth Emblem Have interaction, I actually don’t thoughts the execution. It most likely helps that the opposite major heroines Leticia and Mylene and antagonists like Pasion and Adelina look extra authentic and have equally sturdy character designs.
Knights of Greyfang is a typical type of KEMCO RPG. It isn’t astonishingly totally different or reinventing the style. Nevertheless, it’s entertaining and I appreciated the way it dealt with the idea of vampires. Exe Create might have simply mentioned, “Everyone seems to be vampires, and that’s how they use spells.” Nevertheless, made it a sensible mechanic that forces you to assume, and I admire that.
Knights of Greyfang is on the market for the Nintendo Swap, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Collection X, PC, and cellular units.
