hey turnbas lovers this is leaf bringing
0:27
you yet another turn base game that is
0:29
deserving of your attention this time
0:31
will be showcasing a game that may
0:33
potentially be near and dear to the
0:35
hearts of tries lovers all around the
0:37
world that is because as you may have
0:40
noticed this is a mecha Tes RPG that
0:42
looks all too familiar mechar Rashi is a
0:45
Sci-Fi Mega tures srpg that will be
0:47
releasing globally very very soon and as
0:50
you were seeing from the footage it does
0:52
heavily resemble a similar game
0:54
franchise you folks might recognize as
0:56
Front Mission this is precisely because
1:00
Kashi was originally supposed to be
1:01
Front Mission 2089 borderscape a
1:04
collaborative effort between Blackjack
1:06
studio and Square Enix to create an
1:08
online Front Mission game for Apple and
1:11
Android devices but because the Studio's
1:14
partnership with Square Enix had come to
1:16
an end the then end development game was
1:18
reworked into its own independent IP but
1:21
despite the change in name and branding
1:23
meashi still carries the charm gameplay
1:26
and essence of a Front Mission game but
1:28
I dare say improved in a lot of
1:32
different aspects featuring gameplay
1:34
features like immersive and interactive
1:36
turnbas Mecha battles complete with
1:38
interesting Mecha designs part
1:40
destruction mechanics and a complex
1:42
tactical gameplay but before we begin
1:44
I'd first like to thank Blackjack studio
1:46
for giving us the opportunity to try
1:48
their game out ahead of its Global
1:50
release and of course for sponsoring
1:52
this
1:55
video mechar Rashi is a Sci-Fi srpg set
1:58
in an alternative militaristic world of
2:01
the near future where Mech suits called
2:03
STS are widely utilized as combat
2:05
weapons in the game players follow the
2:08
story of Kaden and his mercenary team
2:10
the gkd squad as they navigate a World
2:13
in Conflict dealing with various
2:15
military forces and uncovering insert
2:17
swine conspiracies between our main
2:19
characters and an elusive organization
2:21
shrouded in mystery the story of meashi
2:24
is mainly told through classic visual
2:26
novel style dialogues but on special
2:28
points of the story you get these
2:30
amazing pre-rendered cut scenes that
2:31
enhance the immersion of taking in
2:33
everything that this universe has to
2:35
offer the world setting is also
2:37
something worth talking about throughout
2:39
its story mear rashi's World feels
2:42
rather fleshed out populated with
2:44
different factions geopolitical issues
2:46
and interesting characters and every
2:48
character in the game has their own
2:50
distinct goals and aspirations that
2:52
justify the things they do these things
2:55
remind me of similar well-made sci-fi
2:57
universes like Ace Combat where you're
2:59
put put in a scenario where you have to
3:01
participate in an ongoing War as the
3:03
oblivious new guy only to later find
3:06
yourself at the center of a wider
3:08
conspiracy that involves the entire
3:10
continent the story while feeling a bit
3:13
rushy in some regard is reminiscent of
3:15
works like metal gear solid with how
3:17
complex character relationships are and
3:19
how conspiracy and Espionage become the
3:21
main driving source for the game's
3:23
narrative there are only a few online
3:26
games out there that manage to grab my
3:28
attention with narrative Al alone as I
3:30
often find myself clicking on the skip
3:32
button whenever any type of dialogue
3:34
presents itself but mechar Rashi is one
3:37
of those few games that actually managed
3:39
to somehow pull me in as I found myself
3:42
being fully immersed in its Rich world
3:44
and engaging
3:46
story because this project was
3:48
originally supposed to be a new entry to
3:50
the Front Mission series mercari's
3:53
design philosophy especially towards its
3:55
visuals are deeply rooted in front
3:57
missions style and appeal everything
3:59
from the environments to the mechs and
4:01
even the UI and animations marashi took
4:04
the core principles that makes up a
4:06
front mission games visuals and elevated
4:08
it to the next level modernizing the
4:11
style and the graphics to be on par with
4:13
the current generation of gaming the
4:15
handrawn character illustrations also
4:17
give each and every individual character
4:19
in the game their distinct looks and
4:21
personalities the mechs or STS design
4:24
also look visually appealing especially
4:26
when you consider that you can freely
4:27
customize the color scheme of a Mech and
4:30
aside from that the mechs have
4:32
individual parts for the head arms and
4:34
feet and swapping out Parts also changes
4:36
their looks in game and I love myself
4:38
some visual progression when playing
4:40
RPGs a chunk of the story is also told
4:43
through high quality pre-rendered 3D
4:45
fmvs but the thing that I appreciate the
4:48
most in this game's visuals are the
4:50
animations during combat when attacking
4:53
the screen cuts to a cinematic event of
4:55
the mech performing the attack or
4:57
ability the devs seem to have been very
4:59
meticulous when it comes to this aspect
5:01
of the game considering how the
5:03
animation directly plays out on the
5:05
field where your Mech was standing as
5:07
opposed to being brought to a completely
5:09
different scene instead what I mean by
5:12
this is the distance of the attacking
5:14
unit relative to the one defending
5:16
corresponds to the actual positioning of
5:18
each unit on the field it's a tiny
5:21
little detail that I really liked when
5:23
playing this game there is also the part
5:25
destruction system that lets you destroy
5:27
specific parts of a Mech the or limiting
5:30
certain actions while having the damaged
5:32
Parts be reflected visually this gives
5:35
combat in the game a really nice bump to
5:37
its immersion and aside from that simply
5:40
watching the STS perform their moves
5:42
just somehow never gets old throughout
5:44
my entire playthrough but if you end up
5:47
getting tired and impatient of these
5:49
animations you can also just disable the
5:51
feature and crank up the game speed to
5:53
up to three
5:55
times meashi is first and foremost a
5:59
based tactical RPG or an srpg but we can
6:03
further divide the genre into two
6:05
spectrums the ones that can take an
6:07
infinite amount of turns and those that
6:09
end swiftly and decisively this game
6:12
Falls in this latter category macari's
6:15
combat is dynamic and decisive this
6:17
means that one good move May dictate the
6:20
entire flow of the battle but it is also
6:22
true that one bad move may break your
6:24
entire team's formation and in turn lead
6:26
to failing the mission this is because
6:29
the game features a retaliation system
6:31
where attacking a unit within their
6:33
range of Engagement allows the target to
6:35
retaliate with an attack of their own
6:38
coupled with fairly low stat values and
6:40
high damage scaling often times it only
6:43
takes a couple of shots to completely
6:44
disable a unit or even eradicate them
6:47
from the battlefield which is also true
6:49
for your own units especially on more
6:52
challenging missions aside from that
6:53
mechari also features parts and part
6:56
destruction wherein a Mech has four
6:58
distinct Parts namely the body the left
7:00
and right arms and the feet these parts
7:03
have their own independent stats and HP
7:05
that make up the entire Mech as a whole
7:07
destroying a part tiers a Mech in
7:09
specific ways destroying an arm disables
7:11
the weapon equipped on it destroying the
7:14
feet makes a Mech mostly iMobile while
7:16
destroying the body results in the
7:17
entire Mech getting destroyed this
7:20
system makes for deeper strategies and
7:22
decision-making whenever tackling
7:24
different types of enemies the game also
7:26
has quality of life features for those
7:28
who find tediousness in in the combat
7:30
animations you can freely disable them
7:32
and even crank up the combat speed to up
7:34
to three times for faster engagements if
7:37
you think your team is capable enough to
7:38
perform on their own you can also enable
7:41
the auto mode so you can sit back and
7:42
watch as the Carnage
7:47
unfolds in mechar Rashi the weapons
7:50
equipped by a Mech dictates the role
7:52
they ought to play while a pilot has
7:54
certain skills specific to a type of
7:56
weapon you can freely swap their Mex
7:57
weapon to the one that you prefer
8:00
there are four main roles that I can
8:01
surmise while playing through this game
8:03
Guardians were equipped with shields
8:04
that protect their squad from enemy fire
8:07
supports that repair damage to their
8:08
squad and can even restore damage Parts
8:11
range damage dealers who excel at
8:13
dealing a lot of damage to enemies from
8:15
a safe distance and melee damage dealers
8:17
who get up close and personal to the
8:19
enemies giving little to no room for
8:21
retaliation among these roles or classes
8:23
there are a lot more nuances in play
8:25
styles that let you truly play your way
8:28
like different way weapons and Pilots
8:30
that have very specific skills one
8:32
really good example for this is for the
8:34
range damage dealers when you hear that
8:37
you'd probably think snipers and for the
8:39
most part snipers are indeed a pretty
8:41
big part of the game especially during
8:44
the early stages because there's a
8:45
really good chance that you'd be using
8:47
one of the main characters Dana as your
8:50
main damage dealer but aside from
8:52
snipers you can also equip this class
8:54
with a shoulder mounted rocket launcher
8:56
that has a significantly longer range
8:58
and Deals damage to all the the targets
9:00
Parts as opposed to a single part for
9:02
the sniper there are also rocket
9:04
launchers that deal damage to an area
9:06
instead of a single Target which is best
9:08
for whittling down opponents before
9:10
dealing the decisive blow and there are
9:12
many more varieties of STS or mechs to
9:14
choose from and different weapons and
9:16
armor combinations that open up an
9:18
almost endless amount of customizations
9:20
witness unleash power bir from
9:24
pain which leads us to the mech
9:26
customization mechari features Mech
9:29
customization that is separate from the
9:31
pilot and their progression meaning that
9:33
you can mix and match Max to fit your
9:35
squad's needs normally in games like
9:37
these would' probably see a system where
9:39
the pilot and the mech are one and the
9:41
same and you level them up together as a
9:43
package but in mechari Once you pull for
9:45
a pilot you can freely swap out their
9:47
Mex parts for ones that you prefer or
9:50
even transfer their parts to a different
9:52
pilot altogether there are three main
9:54
weight classes for Mech that are
9:55
dictated by the pilot the heavy class
9:58
the medium class and the light class
10:00
heavy class mechs tend to be the
10:01
Frontline vanguards of the squad like
10:03
the Guardians medium class mechs are
10:06
usually for the supports and snipers
10:08
while the light class mechs are for the
10:09
skirmishes that move quickly in and out
10:12
of combat however the relation to the
10:14
weight class to these roles or play
10:16
Styles will most likely become
10:17
fictitious in the near future I can
10:20
easily see the game releasing a heavy
10:22
class pilot that excels in longrange
10:24
artillery or medium class that Shields
10:26
the squad or a light class that mostly
10:28
remains station Ary and so on as for
10:31
acquiring mechs and Mech Parts you can
10:32
mainly get them by doing a summon on the
10:34
SD Banner but it seems that the game
10:36
allows you to craft them as well using
10:38
specific resources once you've played
10:40
the game for long enough you're bound to
10:42
have some duplicates for your Mech parts
10:44
that you can use to further enhance the
10:45
main parts used by your active Squad but
10:48
duplicates aren't the only thing that
10:50
lets you strengthen your Mech because
10:51
you can also separately level each part
10:53
using upgrade materials to increase
10:55
their combat capabilities as for further
10:57
customization the game also lets you
10:59
customize a Max appearance by
11:01
manipulating their color scheme which is
11:03
a pretty basic visual customization
11:05
feature for now but it can easily turn
11:07
into something really interesting in the
11:11
future Pilots are the game's way of
11:14
introducing specializations skills and
11:16
play Styles and they technically have a
11:18
separate progression system from the
11:20
meccas or the STS but at the end of the
11:22
day those two modules go hand in hand in
11:25
macari Pilots are characters with
11:27
specific sets of passive skills in
11:29
abilities I think I forgot to mention
11:31
this when talking about the meccas
11:32
earlier but like the specific Mecca
11:34
Parts Pilots also come in different tier
11:36
or Rarity stages with the highest
11:38
Rarities being the S-Class units however
11:41
while higher Rarity units are usually
11:43
better in games like these mecar rushi
11:45
actually blurs the line between an S
11:47
tier and a b tier unit especially in the
11:50
early stages of the game of course when
11:52
you have units fully maxed out the stier
11:55
variants will have higher ceilings for
11:56
their stats but depending on the roster
11:59
that you you have the beater Pilots are
12:01
by no means useless in fact during my
12:03
playthrough I find that the beaters do
12:05
more on the field compared to my soulle
12:07
S tier unit aside from that while Pilots
12:10
dictate the skills and play styles of a
12:12
specific unit ultimately the mechs are
12:14
the ones who decide your Victory or
12:16
defeat duplicate shards are also a thing
12:18
for pilots and you can use these shards
12:20
to further increase their capabilities
12:22
but from what I've seen so far their
12:24
effects are very minimal but we'll
12:26
probably see their importance once
12:27
actually reaching the true endgame now
12:30
you mainly acquire pilots from a
12:31
separate Banner from the STS but
12:33
unfortunately with the version that I
12:35
played I won't be able to comment about
12:36
P pitties guarantees or percent chances
12:39
of getting a unit because the banners
12:41
available are limited but even then I
12:43
can already see the vision the devs have
12:46
for this system and I'm already excited
12:48
with what they'll have to offer for
12:49
their Global release especially with
12:51
what's currently going on in the live
12:53
Asia server for the game but more on
12:55
that later
12:59
once you obtain a set of meccas it's not
13:01
as simple as leveling them up and
13:02
calling it a day as I mentioned earlier
13:04
meccas are divided into four different
13:07
parts the body the left and right arms
13:09
and the feet obtaining Parts by summon
13:11
or crafting May yield only one part
13:14
depending on the manner you obtain them
13:15
this means that while complete sets of
13:17
parts are generally good you can also
13:19
mix and match these parts depending on
13:21
your preference aign from the parts of
13:23
the mech another thing that is a core
13:25
mechanic of the game are weapons mechar
13:27
Rashi has a wide VAR vary of weapons
13:29
that can be slotted on different parts
13:32
of the mech but the ones that deal
13:33
damage are usually equipped on their
13:35
arms or both for two-handed weapons like
13:38
the sniper rifle currently every Mech
13:40
has five weapon slots the left and right
13:42
shoulders the left and right arms and a
13:44
slot for the back usually you'd find
13:47
missile launchers equipped on the
13:48
shoulders most of the weapons would be
13:50
equipped on the arms and healing and
13:52
utility weapons are equipped on the back
13:54
slot the different types of weapons work
13:57
very differently one category for
13:59
example melee weapons have a variety of
14:02
different types that inherently work
14:03
differently from each other some melee
14:06
weapons like the pile bunker are single
14:08
Target weapons that are good for dealing
14:10
a large amount of Single part damage
14:12
other melee weapons like the pole arms
14:13
lets you attack a group of enemies as
14:16
opposed to only a single one and there
14:18
are many more of these variations that
14:20
differ from weapon to weapon opening the
14:22
game up to an insane amount of play
14:24
Styles but you can't just deck out your
14:26
mechs with whatever you want there is a
14:29
weight to power limit for every Mech
14:30
that limits what you can equip on a
14:32
single Mecca the mech power is mostly
14:35
dictated by the mech body part and every
14:37
other part has a weight stat that adds
14:39
up to a total that needs to be lower
14:41
than the maximum power this is
14:43
definitely one of the first things that
14:44
you need to put into consideration when
14:46
building a new Mech but how exactly do
14:49
you obtain resources to level up your
14:51
units well as you progress of the game's
14:53
main story various activities will
14:55
slowly appear that you can choose to do
14:57
for specific rewards no note that some
14:59
of these challenges may seem too easy at
15:01
the start but as more of them appear the
15:04
difficulty also gradually increases
15:06
there are many different types of side
15:07
missions that each give specific
15:09
materials or items as rewards so there
15:12
is a good amount of variety to look
15:14
forward to now you can't just spend the
15:16
entire day grinding the game out for
15:18
resources as with every Goda game today
15:20
you will be capped by an energy limit
15:23
that replenishes over time which means
15:25
that you'll have to spend your energies
15:26
wisely in order to efficiently upgrade
15:29
the unit that you
15:31
want so I'm not entirely sure if you're
15:34
getting these collabs when the game
15:35
finally comes out for its Global release
15:37
but in the lime servers today there are
15:39
a few interesting events and collabs
15:41
happening which is a pretty good
15:43
starting point when speculating about
15:44
what this game will have to offer the
15:46
game had goab events with Nvidia as well
15:49
as Republic of Gamers more commonly
15:51
known as Rog each giving out a free
15:53
themed EGA as part of their respective
15:55
campaigns aside from that the game also
15:58
had a crossover update that brought Neon
16:00
Genesis Evangelion characters as well as
16:02
avas to the game well St is designed to
16:05
look like avas at least you could just
16:07
imagine the sheer power cre problem if
16:09
they introduce actual avas into the game
16:12
but even then this collab goes
16:14
absolutely crazy and the avas feel like
16:16
they're actually out of this world in
16:18
terms of looks and combat ability while
16:20
I'm someone who prefers continuity and
16:22
immersion these avas actually somehow
16:25
feel like they totally belong and I'm
16:27
hoping that we get this collab on the
16:29
Global release as well because they
16:30
absolutely look
16:33
amazing and that is all I have for today
16:36
I had a really good time trying this
16:38
game out during the past few days and if
16:40
I didn't make a conscious decision to
16:42
stop playing the game I probably
16:43
wouldn't have been able to bring you
16:45
guys this video anyways if you're as
16:48
interested and hyped about this game's
16:49
Global release as I am consider clicking
16:51
the link down in the description to
16:53
pre-register and help us attain the pre-
16:55
goal which will undoubtedly give some
16:57
additional rewards remember to hit like
16:59
subscribe if you're new around here and
17:01
remember to follow turnbas lovers for
17:02
everything turnbas this has been leaf
17:04
