Much like Persona, if you don’t procrastinate and get straight on with the task at hand, you’ll still have that same number of days left to use as free time with your confidants, so there’s no need to worry about cramming in all your socializing first. Using a calendar to track your progress, the game employs deadlines at set points to push the story forward - with each new objective, you’ll be told how many days you have to get to a certain point in the dungeons. Persona fans will feel right at home with Eternights’ time-management elements. If reading any of this review so far has made you think, “Huh, that sounds a bit like Persona”, then you’re not wrong. Given that the various hangouts gradually fill you in on everyone’s backstories, which in turn increases the stakes of the main story, the social sim elements don’t feel like filler content and contribute an important part to the overall package. Spend enough time with them, and with the exception of your best buddy Chani, you’re able to take things to the next level and get romantic (although doing so isn’t a requirement to get your hands on the best skills). Progressing relationships in Eternights is a simple matter - you can simply choose to hang out with any of the five characters when you’re not busy battling it out in a dungeon, both on the train itself and out in the world. Over the course of a set number of in-game days, you’ll fight your way through dungeons riddled with dangerous foes and bosses in a valiant attempt to save the world and its inhabitants, while also using your indomitable rizz in your free time to seduce one (or more) of the game’s potential love interests, on your train journey to the source of the apocalypse. And saving the world, I guess.īlending exploration, action, and dating simulation elements into one neat package, Eternights provides plenty to love. Rest assured, none of this is going to detract from your quest for romance. Oh, and you get your arm cut off, but it grows back - glowing - and can transform into a sword. Before you can go out on your first date with a mysterious faceless lady (you’ve definitely had better ideas than that, by the way), the world is plunged into an apocalypse, and the majority of humans are transformed into grotesque, violent monsters. However, it soon becomes apparent that there are greater issues to contend with than your dating profile’s allure.
