In the preview I was sent exploring a huge sewer environment, complete with a puzzle involving activating paintings in the right order. Outside of the combat you’ll be wandering around the gorgeous 2d world of Astria Ascending, shopping in a bustling metropolis and exploring dank dungeons. Alongside this, there are also slots to equip up to 4 jobs on each character, so I’d expect the game to get significantly more complex as you make it further through the adventure.
ASTRIA ASCENDING ACHIEVEMENT GUIDE FULL
This sprawling skill tree (think the Final Fantasy X Sphere Grid) is packed full of stat boosts and new abilities just waiting to make your party tougher. The Ascension treeīeat enough enemies and you’ll unlock points to use in the Ascension tree. It’s not always this simple though, and if you’re not careful and an enemy resists your attack you’ll lose those precious focus points. Gathering these up and boosting your attack to 200% will deal a hefty amount of damage, which you’ll need against some of the tricky boss fights you’ll encounter. Whenever you hit the weak point of an enemy you’ll be given some focus points, which you can use to boost the power of any of your abilities. The most interesting aspect of the combat comes from the focus system. Party members can be switched out mid fight too, so you can take advantage of any weaknesses those pesky noises have. From the jump you can choose any of your allies to fight with you, so if you want to stack the team with mages or go all in on physical power you can. The turn based combat is fairly standard at first, with a team of four of your godly team taking turns to attack, cast magic or use different skills. In your quest to keep the world safe, it won’t be long before you’re flung into your first battle. Astria Ascending gets you into battle quick With a huge threat to the world and the lives of its citizens soon discovered, it’s up to your team to save the day while they still have time to do so. The fated eight (your party) are a group of these heroic humanoids, with only three months left before they pass away. Being a Demi God isn’t all fun and games though, because their incredible powers come at a price – a very short lifespan. In the world of Orcanon, Demi Gods are beings with great power who help and are worshiped by citizens. Astria Ascending isn’t much of a known quantity right now, but based on what I’ve played for this preview it could be worth some of your precious hours. When a new turn based title comes along from a developer you aren’t familiar with, it can be such a gamble of your time. There are plenty of chunky RPGs that you could be playing, and time is such a valuable resource.

When you’re going to be putting 20 hours or more into a game, you want to know it’ll be a good time.
