Those who are familiar with the Monster Hunter series will feel right at home with this one, as the core moment-to-moment gameplay is very similar. Of course, the narrative really isn’t the main draw of the game at all, as that is unquestionably the gameplay. It may not be state of the art, but considering that many of these types of games are ruined by horrible voice acting is definitely a big plus for God Eater Resurrection.
The voice acting that accompanies these characters is also surprisingly solid, making an otherwise standard end-of-the-world scenario more enjoyable. Characters feature a lot of personality and quirks, and during the several dozens of hours of gameplay on hand I really grew to like just about the entire cast. While the plot is nothing special, it’s all elevated by a very likable cast that brings to mind old-school RPG charm from games like Dark Cloud.
A resistance has been set up in the form of God Eaters, which are people who wield God Arcs as the only means of damaging and ultimately defeating the Arigami. The plot involves a world in the not-so-distant future being overrun by massive entities known as Arigami, which are consuming everything on the planet to the point where humanity is on the brink of extinction. While the most recent iteration of Monster Hunter attempted to include an actual plot, narrative-driven action was actually something that God Eater Burst took a shot at with its debut. That same game has now been remastered for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita, and is certainly worth a look for those in search of a Monster Hunter alternative. The game provided a more direct approach to the action cycle at hand, starting you off in a small hub to get your equipment in check before immediately being thrust into the action against a variety of monstrous beings. God Eater Burst originally launched for the PSP back in 2010, providing gamers with a solid alternative to Capcom’s Monster Hunter series.
