Have you heard? Fantasian Neo Dimension has just launched on Xbox Series X|S consoles, bringing with it a captivating journey of memory and discovery. Players take on the role of Leo, navigating a curious mechanical world while grappling with vague memories. As Leo strives to reclaim his past, he faces the mysterious mechteria infection, which threatens to engulf his universe.
Crafted by Hironobu Sakaguchi, the mind behind the beloved Final Fantasy series, and scored by the legendary Nobuo Uematsu, this game is a dream come true for RPG aficionados. Fantasian Neo Dimension revitalizes the classic turn-based battle system with fresh mechanics and strategic depth. Enveloped in the visual splendor of over 150 hand-made dioramas, this RPG promises both beauty and challenge.
The initial release of Fantasian in 2021 garnered praise for its engaging combat system, albeit challenging for many players. If you’re more inclined towards the storyline, much like myself, you’ll appreciate the new Normal difficulty option in Neo Dimension. Even with this mode, expect a good challenge!
Stuck in the game? Fear not! Here are some handy tips and tricks to guide you through the gameplay, ensuring your strategies are on point.
Getting Started
A standout feature in Fantasian Neo Dimension is the Skill Trajectories used during battles. Each of these comes with different paths – straight lines, curves, or areas of effect. To maximize damage, observe your enemies’ positions and make calculated decisions with your attacks to tackle multiple foes simultaneously. It’s a thrilling, satisfying system to master.
As you unleash these skills, keep an eye on your MP. Being strategic about MP usage is crucial, but thankfully you can replenish it using items like Ether or Elixir. Some characters are equipped with handy skills, such as Focus, allowing MP restoration—great for those endless skill bouts!
Yet another key system is the Dimengeon Machine, unlocked by Leo during his adventure. This device lets you defer fighting certain enemies, meaning fewer random battles. Save up enemies for a larger group encounter and capitalize on your Skill Trajectories to vanquish them all in one go. Attack Dimengeon Gimmicks wisely during these battles for advantageous effects.
Battle Tips
Mastering battles in Fantasian Neo Dimension requires more than just brute force; it involves understanding your arsenal, character abilities, and enemy behaviors. Here are some beginner tips:
-
Weaknesses: Use Analyze or Research skills—or the Research Lens item—to unveil enemy weaknesses, resistances, and remaining HP. Exploit this info strategically with skills or items that target these vulnerabilities.
-
Status Effects: Quickly address any nasty status effects or debuffs affecting your team and use buffs to heighten your party’s combat edge.
-
Equipment: As you advance, upgrade your gear via treasure chests or shops. Ensuring your gear aligns with the battle’s demands can dramatically influence outcomes.
-
Strategic Dimengeon Use: During Leo’s solo escapades, decide whether engaging the Dimengeon Machine is beneficial or best turned off to prevent overwhelming encounters.
-
Dimengeon Machine Reset: Overwhelmed by too many foes? Visit the Outskirts of Vibra Royal Capital to reset the Dimengeon Machine for a fee.
- Party Members: As more allies join Leo’s quest, switch them in and out to alter your combat strategy, capitalizing on their distinct skills and strengths.
Growth Map
After some progression, the Growth Map becomes accessible for Leo and his companions. It’s here you can allocate SP for various skills and status boosts, tailoring your team’s battle capabilities. Reset your Growth Map choices anytime using “Release Mode” to reclaim your SP without cost.
