As a thorough enjoyer of the Battle Chasers game, I love it.
It's refreshing that combat is deterministic (very little RNG involved) and I'm enjoying the strategic feel of the lane system.
I love it!
In Battlechaiser you have to be 10+lvl above enemy to negate fights , but if you have one party member below that fight is started.
What's the music for this video?
I wonder if this will get a physical release on Switch.
Hope for PS5/PS4 physical copy. Battle Chasers Nightwar was interesting game.
I found the combat in Battlechasers to be too long and too frequent. If I played on Story difficulty, would this problem be solved?
i like it. but my pile of shame is that big, that i have no time for it at the moment
eh i dont think its worth the money it should be free to play
I'm a pretty big veteran of LoL , honestly this game looks great and plays out great for an RPG turn-based…. However , it certainly lacks with Champions ( It makes sense why Miss Fortune is in Bilgewater as her story starts there , so is the dude Pyke i love playing him as a Jungler but where is Gangplank he's a Crucial character to the Bilgewater storyline ). Yasou is great and a Fun character overall , but where's Zed ? and some others like Master Yi , Ashe , Gangplank and several others. I know this game has nothing to do with Demacia but with Bilgewater there certainly has to be Gangplank , Fizz , Graves , Nautilus and Twisted Fate. those are all Bilgewater characters including Illaoi , Pyke & Missfortune… Yasou , Ahri and Braum are Not in the Bilgewater beginnings but in Ruined King they added them for Popularity.
Note : Here's a rundown for all the 6 Champion characters in this Game :
1- Illaoi , Melee Support Tanky healer with moderate damage.
2- Braum , AoE Melee Tank mainly with certain Debuffs to enemies.
3- Missfortune , Ranged DPS with AoE and debuffs.
4- Ahri , Ranged Mage with AoE mainly DPS.
5- Yasou , Melee Crit champion possibly highest damage out-put character with AoE potential.
6- Pyke , Melee assassin with mostly True Damage % based on Health…. Great overall DPS.
( Those are all their Roles even in League of Legends , aside from few parts like Ganking and doing Jungle stuff for your Team…. In RPG those are simpler and straight-forward ). 💯
Does anyone know how this runs for the Nintendo Switch? I remember hearing how Battle Chasers’ (from the same devs) performance were terrible on the Switch and since this seems very similar I wonder if the low performance is also similar.
Meh…
Final score?
So depressing that only encountering one bug is considered a pro these days.
are these champions set for the game or will we have more champions later on?
Looks too much like BCNW. Looks like they didn't really do enough to differentiate this, and relied on the League characters to sell the game. Meh from me, might wait for a sale though.
Sleeper hit
The only two major issues I have with the game are the bugs and the lack of fast travel. Save often or you risk losing your progress to a game crash, at least on Nintendo Switch. I need more than one hand to count the number of times this game has crashed on me. The crashes usually follow up some sort of glitch that reminds me of Super Glitch from pokemon Red and Blue. The game will act weird at first. The strangest game crash was this one time I lost the ability to select my targets for a battle. After I won the battle the game gave up and crashed. Thankfully these glitches and game crashes don't delete or corrupt the save file, at least not that I've seen so far so just save often.
I loved Battlechasrs and Ithis game is great. I instantly bought it when I saw it was out.
Honestly this video made me want to get back to Battlechasers
Plays like a mobile game.
Couldn't care less about the whole LoL universe, i just want to know how much of a better game it is compared to Battle Chasers ? I was having a blast, finished it like twice, but there was very little variety in enemies and stuff you could do. Is the game much bigger than BC ?
tldr : battle chasers with LoL coat with some extra mechanics ?
Copped this on Series X and digging it so far. Loved battle chasers so it was a must have when I heard about it. Wish this more action button mash tho.
This game has a few bugs and needs some QOL patches. Like skipping ultimate animations and increasing the running move speed, since you backtrack a lot in this game.
Say NO To Fast Travel. Say NO to building games for Reviewers.
guess I'm the only one who thinks a lot of the graphics shaders look like Guild Wars 2
From the creators of Darksiders and Battle Chasers!
I just scooped this up today. As a player of both DSG and BC, I agree with you whole heartedly. It is a great story, great visuals, and the buff/debuff/lanes additions give it a much more satisfying combat system than BC has.
I found that playing with my xbox controller (on PC) eliminates the overly clunky mouse/kb controls and is a much better experience.
Cheers!
"clunky character controls" maybe game is best played on controller?
damn, so its not f2p?
fuck epic games
wow joe mad battle chasers game made into a league game? thats a perfect fit

I'm legit motivated to play this game simply because of how great Arcane was on Netflix. If this is indeed worth our time, bravo MF'ers! I dont even play LoL
consantly lightning up npcs to talk to them is such a great idea!
Can this game be played coop??
Perfect for switch
