To start, BILLY IS THE GOAT!!  The design, charisma, and the combat style peak. I noticed that the art style resembles Persona 5, and I'm not mad at it. If I would describe the game in a couple of words, it would be: Tripple A Mobile Gotcha Game!!  It is free to play, but I'm impressed with the fluidity of the animations and combat sequences. The design of the characters is pretty slick, too, but in my opinion, they put too many little girls to my taste as the entire roster, for now, is 16, and at least five are what you call "Loli," but that's just me. Drake would approve ... Sorry, sick ass bear though  The world is beautiful and exciting. You can choose to play as a male or female from the beginning. The world recognizes those two characters as " PROXIES," an elite race that can travel between the natural world and the Ether. I understood this from the hour I played, but for now, it gives you an idea of why you chose a character at the beginning.  The world revolves around contracts made with Agents, the beings that protect the Proxies in the Ether world; they are like mercenaries that help proxies fight the corrupted creatures that come across in their missions. Exciting story and world-building so far, now let's talk about the best thing by far: THE COMBAT MECHANICS. If you played GENSHIN IMPACT, then you will have a good idea as it is from the same game company **HOYOVERSE** The combat is so crisp, although it follows the rules of a mobile game where you press one button and it does the combination. This time, they improved on that formula and added counters as a perfect parry where, if you do it, an animation will trigger while bringing your partner to the fight. Each character has a light, heavy, evade, counter, and Ultimate attack. It becomes an absolute joy to watch and play as you fight bosses and more while seeing the style of each animation. Even though the game slaps, it still is a GACHA game, and I already saw tons of **BUY NOW FOR JUST** in just one hour. I get it, but I wouldn't say I like it. I don't think I need to explain, as it is always the same( S, A, B, C, yadayada). S is the rarest with the better characters, and C is like a "Hey, at least you got something." I did get a cool character at my first attempt, but I'm no fool; that was pure luck, and it won't happen twice. **I have a big gripe with the monetization system. To even try to get good characters, you need to consume 1600 polychrome to get a single multiple attempts with the Master Tape, which does not guarantee the character you want. To even try it, you need 10 Master Tape, which requires 1600 polychrome, and 1600 polychrome is 34,99 EUR!!!!**   I'm sorry, but that is Greed at its finest. Yes, you can get polychrome by completing objectives, but you know they only do that to have a scapegoat as the grind becomes too grindy, but they always defend themselves with" You don't need to pay; it's only there if you want to do things quicker." The game has a flashy style, excellent characters, and fluid animations. Still, the Greed is too much for me as, yes, you don't need to, but you know it will become harder and harder to resist temptation. **8/10**
