The much-anticipated pre-registration for the JP server of ETE Chronicle:Re is now live! If you've been eagerly awaiting a game that lets you soar through the skies, dive into the ocean, and conquer the land alongside powerful female characters, your wait is over.
Let me give you a brief overview of the game. ETE Chronicle initially launched in Japan but received a lukewarm reception due to its unexpected turn-based gameplay, which disappointed some fans expecting a high-octane mecha action experience. In response to the feedback, the developers revamped the game for its Chinese release, turning it into a true action title.
This updated version, ETE Chronicle:Re, is set to replace the original JP release, which will be shut down. Players who invested in the old version will see their investments transferred to the new one.
The Storyline: A Future in Ruins
Let's dive into the world of ETE Chronicle:Re. You'll find yourself in a future where chaos reigns, and humanity is locked in an endless struggle. The Yggdrasil Corporation, after acquiring extraterrestrial remnants, developed the Galar, a tactical exoskeleton. With this new technology and their massive orbital base, Tenkyu, they transformed Earth into a war-torn wasteland.
In response, survivors formed the Humanity Alliance, equipped with the E.T.E., a new breed of combat machines piloted by skilled girls. As an enforcer in this world, you'll join them in their fight, where every decision you make not only affects the battle but also the fate of these characters, making your role crucial.
The battle mechanics of ETE Chronicle:Re are dynamic. With four characters under your command, you must think and act quickly. The game's half-real-time system requires you to switch strategies on the fly as you navigate through enemy fire.
Despite the excitement, some players remain skeptical about the reboot, given their less-than-stellar experience with the previous version. They found the constant running and shooting loop monotonous, as enemies maintained a fixed distance, making flanking impossible. The movement system also controlled the entire party simultaneously, lacking individual character control, which led to repetitive and frustrating battles. Will ETE Chronicle:Re address these issues? Only time will tell.
