Nice!

Absolute garbage, thank god i bought it when the steam store was still in pesos.
I knew the game wasn't good before playing it so i had very low expectations but it was even worse than that. I expected some janky, weird gameplay that i could laugh at and get some entretainment value from it, but i got an extremely boring, dull, repetitive and braindead gameplay with 0 redeeming qualities, it doesn't even have good spectacle.

You mash your attack buttons and things die, the end.

If you're an Azur Lane fan you MIGHT get something from it if you're interested in the story and characters AND if you treat it as a visual novel first, but for the rest of us there's nothing of value here.

I finished the story mode in like 2 hours after skipping every cutscene, i tried reading the story at first but after seeing how ♥♥♥♥ the gameplay is and how little i cared about the chars and plot there was no way i was going to spend like 10 hours reading it.

Why did i beat the game anyways? I was curious and wanted to see if any of my old team members made it to the game (i played the original for a while when the concept of a gacha game was new to me and all my friends were playing it), it would have been cool to see them again in 3D and play with them for a bit, but none of them made it. I guess that's what i get for liking low rarity filler garbage like Crescent and California instead of the high rarity stuff the game pushed me to like.

Only positive i got from it was discovering Roon, her mech part is cool and makes her look like a Bakugan.

If you're looking for a game that combines the thrill of naval battles with the charm of anime girls, look no further! Azur Lane: Crosswave is like a love letter to anime fans, wrapped in a shiny 3D package with a side of explosive action.

First off, let's talk about the visuals. The game is a feast for the eyes, with beautifully detailed ships and those adorable chibi characters that will make your heart skip a beat. And yes, there's plenty of fan service, so if you're into that sort of thing, you're in for a treat!

The gameplay is a mix of 3D shooting and visual novel elements. While the shooting parts are straightforward and fun, it's the interactions with the characters that really steal the show. Each shipgirl has her own personality and backstory, making every mission feel like a new chapter in an ongoing saga.

Now, let's address the elephant in the room: the grind. Yes, there's a lot of grinding involved, especially if you want to unlock all the ships and upgrades. But hey, what's a little grind compared to the joy of seeing your favorite shipgirl in action?

In summary, Azur Lane: Crosswave is a delightful mix of action and charm. It's perfect for anyone who loves anime, naval battles, and a good dose of fan service. Just be prepared to invest some time into it, and maybe keep a stash of snacks nearby for those long grinding sessions.

Rating: 8/10 - A must-play for anime fans and naval warfare enthusiasts alike!
