Haha! I tricked you! I didn't hate it, I was just extremely disappointed by it, just like a father who discovered their son is a femboy twink that likes to dress up as a maid!
But seriously tho, first and foremost, I fucking love the gameplay of Cold Steel. It was so amazing I can't believe how much fun I was having with the combat system. It's better than Persona, Valkyria Chronicles, Dragons Quest, and Kami no Rhapsody (I also really love the gameplay of this one, 2nd only to cold steel).
You can move around the battle area, strategically place your characters in certain spots so enemies either cannot hit you, can only hit one person, or you're all fucked. But spreading out too thin could fuck you over too, that means you can't heal your characters so they can only rely on items. If they're too far, you're out of items, or got stunned then might as well get the casket now. I love it, I have 0 complaints with the gameplay. But the story.... my GOD I CAN'T STAND IT.
Why does everyone liked Crow so much? You barely know the guy, everyone only knows him for half a year I think, so why are you willing to forgive a traitor of your country? He's a full blown terrorist willing to kill hundreds of people including your friend just to kill one general. FOR ONE GUY! THIS GUY IS A MENACE!
Also there's a scene where one of the bad guys died in a mech, I remember I was bumping my fist in the air but the main character, on the top of his lungs, screams "NOOOOOO!". What do you mean "NOOOOOO"? You're literally in a civil war. He's here to kill you, and you're there to kill him. Honestly I wouldn't be bothered with this scene if not for the fact that everyone, every supporting characters, acts like the MC. Also, everyone also barely knows the guy. All it takes is his boo hoo backstory to make you act like this? Go home. Just go home, you're not fit for this.
Another thing I had to talk about, they said that they're in a civil war but it doesn't feel like war is going on in the background. It's like the Winnie hut Jr. Version of war. Everything seems so calm, I can't feel like they're in a destabilized country torn between two faction. Bottom line, I can't feel any tension.
This is just my rant, I have to do it cause I was so disappointed of cold steel. If you liked the game, me too I liked the game part of it. It's extremely fun and even after 90+ hours it's still fun. But if you like the story and the characters and the setting I'm so jealous of you. I tried, I really tried continuing the game, trying to stomach it, but I just can't do it. Everything just falls apart after the start of the civil war.
