Yahoo it's finally here. I need to order limited PS5 edition while it is in stock. Can't wait! I really envy you that you could play it in advance. Glad you liked it!
Not sure if I'm going to pick it up or not, but it honestly looks really good, and I've no doubt I would enjoy it if I tried it. Just have so much on my plate. Ahhh! Halp.
Y's 9 is a great game, dude!!!! Way better than 8. Y'S 8 was severely overrated. This game seems like a step back from 9 from what I've seen. However, the most intriguing thing to me is the boat levels. That's new. Ys games are known for doing something new with every title, which I can definitely respect. The music also seems like a serious step back as well. I think with ys 9, they threw everything at that game. I don't know why youtubers give 9 so much flack? It's actually one of the best games in the series, really. In all honesty though, I will reserve judgment until I fully play the game.
Small note on 6:03 about the blocking power attack that was missed. the other (more important situation) is when one of your characters is knocked out you won't be able to guard power attacks.
I'm so excited for this. I did my Ys deep dive last year. I even played the three iterations of Ys IV. Most of them were great. I'm expecting cohesive team attacks, rich engaging story I can get lost in and that bumpin Falcom soundtrack
Got it coming any day on switch this game is amazing best ys game so far the map and where to go next is a game changer more games need this tales of rise lol the inverted map made me give up
No. I like Nordics but it is really badly paced and overflowing with pointless dialog. And while the combat is good, it lacks the variety of Ys8. And the upgrade tree is painful. It’s just not needed. I liked Ys 9 but X, like 9, is overcooked. Ys 8 is the best by a comfortable margin.
Love falcom games and ys 8 is one of my favourite game ever. I m playing the demo on ps4 (i am at chapter 3)and there are too many dialogues... Maybe i prefer the old combat system with party, flash guard and flash moves. Anyway combat system is good. I expected something more from graphic and from ost (usually falcom games have great ost.. Ys 8 one was a masterpiece ) . I ll buy it when it will be on sale.
Unfortunately no, only specific ones. Thats one of my major disappointments for falcom games. I like to explore the communities. Though there are only a handful of settlements so it isn’t a huge loss
@@Shinky It's not just a problem with Falcom games; many JRPGs don't allow house exploration. Just look at Final Fantasy Rebirth or Eiyuden Chronicle. Most houses in the cities can't be explored and are just for decoration.
@@ShinkyI hope the story is relatable, only touched the demo though. I loved the family/community aspect of VIII & IX. There were times when I smiled, laughed, cried, got angry, pity, got curious, got fascinated... tons of emotions. That's why I RPG, for the play of words and circumstances. Once I finish the game, I crank up the difficulty and play of logics & commands mentality kick in.
The story isn’t crazy fantastic but I enjoyed it. It does have emotional highs and lows, and does feature family and love as primary focuses. I think you’ll like it
I have liked boat combat since i started it. I see no problem with it. The boat is slow but its a sail boat so yeah.

It was an absolute blast! I hope you can enjoy it too =)

May I suggest a vacation from all responsibilities?
Ys 8 is the best!
Weird how the games only got worse after that
Only 9 wasn't very good. So far I get major 8 vibes from x.
@@MJ-oi6ulgoing off 2 data points lol
Great review shinkster!! I'm stoked for YS X, and I adored both YS VIII and YS IX. I need to play more games in this franchise
Yes…yes you should. It’s a fantastic series and everyone needs to understand the story of Adol the Red!
@@Shinky I have YS Origins, YS 1&2 Chronicles, YS 3: Oath in Felghana, YS IV: Memories of Celceta, and YS VI: Ark of Napishtim
Great review
Glad to see it delivered very well for you, really looks good
And ooh Adol is a Fire Type, guess you could say he’s ALL FIRED UP now
Yes…he is a humanoid Charmander!
Nordics is great, and so is monstrum nox, but lacrymosa of dana set the bar pretty high. It's still my favorite. The psp games are awesome too. 😊
I won't lie this looks like an improvement over Ys 8 and 9's combat! Looking forward to playing this! Most likely will avoid naval combat tho.
Awesome review Jon! I really enjoyed Ys 8 and hoped to get into Ys 9 but still haven't sat down to play through it. I should get on that.
I think you got the wrong name there Cesar!

YS 8 was the best in the series!
Digging the demo and im getting it day 1. Always loved this series.
Definitely a good choice!
The demo is like 20 hours. I'm on chapter 3 and it is still going
@MikeRavia-xp5ig youre near the end lol
Ys x is the one, the one that finally made me love ys.❤
that is concerning because the other ones are mores "Ys" than this. demo is good though.
Small note on 6:03 about the blocking power attack that was missed. the other (more important situation) is when one of your characters is knocked out you won't be able to guard power attacks.
I cannot wait for Ys X...
Ys VIII on Switch was awesome and i love Ys 1 on the Master System.
It’s so good! Up there as one of my faves
@@Shinky great! The trailer reminds me of Ys VIII
I'm so excited for this. I did my Ys deep dive last year. I even played the three iterations of Ys IV. Most of them were great. I'm expecting cohesive team attacks, rich engaging story I can get lost in and that bumpin Falcom soundtrack
To be free and ride on mana are peak!
Got it coming any day on switch this game is amazing best ys game so far the map and where to go next is a game changer more games need this tales of rise lol the inverted map made me give up
This was a great review! This would probably be my time to finally jump into the series and give it a go
You really should! It’s super fun
I am so hyped for Ys X. I’m glad it got the Shinky seal of approval lol.
Great review of Ys X Nordics. Been a fan of the series since Memories of Celceta on PS Vita.
No. I like Nordics but it is really badly paced and overflowing with pointless dialog. And while the combat is good, it lacks the variety of Ys8. And the upgrade tree is painful. It’s just not needed.
I liked Ys 9 but X, like 9, is overcooked. Ys 8 is the best by a comfortable margin.
That pacing is only at the beginning. It mellows out afterwards. I found the skill tree kind of a strange implication as well
2 days late, better than never awesome insights. Thanks for showing games. Most people would never think of or look at keep up the great work 👍
YS VIII is the best one
Ys 8 is a pretty good game for sure
Origin and 8 are my opinion the best ones of the series, others are great in their own right.
....we dont tallk about V
Fully agree
Love falcom games and ys 8 is one of my favourite game ever. I m playing the demo on ps4 (i am at chapter 3)and there are too many dialogues...

The dialogue mellows out after chapter 3, so you don’t have to worry about
Ive had the untranslated text bug in the 30 hour ps5 demo.
Getting the collectors edition on Nintendo Switch
Excellent! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
What about the villages and cities? Can the interiors of houses be explored?
Unfortunately no, only specific ones. Thats one of my major disappointments for falcom games. I like to explore the communities.
Though there are only a handful of settlements so it isn’t a huge loss
@@Shinky It's not just a problem with Falcom games; many JRPGs don't allow house exploration. Just look at Final Fantasy Rebirth or Eiyuden Chronicle. Most houses in the cities can't be explored and are just for decoration.
I got it on Nintendo Switch, that way I can lay around the house and in my bed while playing it
Story are skippable ya know.
Oh I know, and the story is good, I like story. But it was just very front heavy, it isn’t a negative just not what I was expecting
