Knights of Britannia is one of the latest anime adaptation games released by Bandai Namco this year. Although it is still an anime newcomer, but The Seven Deadly Sins or you can call also with Nanatsu no Taizai, has been getting a lot of loyal fans who always follow the development of this series every time. Including also the adaptation of the game which in plain looks promising.

Because KotGa Crew is one of the Meliodas fans and its epic journey with the other seven deadly sins, surely the desire to play this game directly can not be dammed anymore. However, sometimes high expectations do not always guarantee a play experience to your liking. Because after KotGa Crew tried the game directly, The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia comes with a quality that is unfortunately still half-half.

So what exactly makes this game get bad response from most gamers and critics? Rather than curious, yuk! see the complete review that KotGa Crew has summarized below.

The Way of the Game Feels Cluttered

Before entering the content discussion, it helps you to know the true storyline of The Seven Deadly Sins itself. So this series tells the story of the main character named Meliodas, where one day he met a royal princess named Elizabeth who was unconscious after finding his hat bar Pigs. After knowing the purpose of Elizabeth who wanted to gather seven great sins to stop the power of the holy warrior, she finally introduced her true identity which was none other than the leader of the seven great sins of "Dragon Sin" Meliodas. This is where the epic and festive journey the fans await begins.

When compared to watching anime, the delivery of the story in The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia itself seemed too forced. Some surprising moments are very bland because each character has no expression and bad lip-sync, even during serious and touching dialogue sessions. There are some unique gameplay concepts that are quite unique: quests collect supply, mass battle against human forces and monsters, to arena battles quite similar to the Naruto Shippuden series: Ultimate Ninja Storm.

Not just the delivery of the story, but other messy impression is in various quest sessions that you have to go through by moving to different areas. The quests offered are numerous, but most of them have no attachment to the story. Repetitive and boring, this is the first impression you'll get after playing it for a while.

Excess Stay There, but Followed More Deficiencies

If you look at the gameplay system more deeply, you will immediately know that The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia comes with the control and execution of battle skill is much simpler. You do not have to memorize the combination of keypads for launching combos, as each character attack and character execution focuses on only one or two buttons. With this, mastering the character with any style of play will feel very easy, but extra challenges even at the highest level of difficulty will not you feel (except when playing online battle mode).

The biggest problem that KotGa Crew naturally experienced is its camera control which is very bad and chaotic. While in a battle of mass battles against standard enemies, you must control the camera manually and circle the arena with unstable character controls. Starting from the wrong direction, the execution of attacks are always missed, to the difficulty of managing the time while playing the quest time trial. One feature where residents can spread rumors also ends up as a mere gimmick to increase enthusiasm. Overall, absolutely nothing special from the concept of gameplay and its features.

Not present without excess of course, because KotGa Crew itself is very fond of step developers to use the original voice from the animated version of this game. Starting from a joke to a popular quote you can hear again with different traits and original feel. Another plus that most KotGa Crew loves is a really epic soundtrack battle (probably one of the best battle soundtracks over the last few years). The online mode of battle actually still has a fatal flaw about the ultimate non-skippable animated switching (co-op mode 4 players), but online battle one on one against other players offers a very exciting and thrilling experience.

Attachment With Anime Series

Talking about his own attachment certainly can not be separated from the fact that this game is an original adaptation of the anime The Seven Deadly Sins. But one thing that distinguishes the most between this game with animenya is the delivery of the story that has KotGa Crew mentioned earlier. You are presented with a myriad of roster characters that have not even appeared in animenya such as Lion's Sin of Pride Escanor, and Zeldris which is a member of Ten Commandments. But unfortunately the developers did not succeed in showing the true background and emotion of each character.

Forget the epic and tense moments, because all that you can get by watching the animated series. So for those of you who have not had time to watch the animation and want to play this game first, better reconsider before later there is regret in the back.

Conclusion

The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia is an anime adaptation game that unfortunately fails to meet fans' expectations. Almost all aspects in this game was disappointing and make a good name of this series to fall in the eyes of newcomers gamers. The quality of voice acting and the soundtrack of the battle it offers is unbelievable, but it is not enough to cover the other deficiencies.

Behind all the shortcomings, KotGa Crew itself can not call this game bad because there must be some fans who are satisfied with the quality. In the end, watching the animated series is the most crucial choice KotGa recommends for those of you who want to get to know more about The Seven Deadly Sins.
