I absolutely adored the original Fantasy Life on 3DS. Loved Ever Oasis, too. For some reason, I always kinda viewed the two as a pair, even though they had nothing to do with each other.
Anyhow, I read a couple months ago that there’s a new Fantasy Life game coming to Switch later this year, and it really got me looking forward to it. I’m a little worried that there hasn’t really been much in the way of promotion for the title, but what I’ve seen looks promising.
Anyone else got this game on their radar?
It’s a light ARPG where you can freely swap from a variety of jobs that determine what skills and abilities you have. Unlike most other games in the genre, Fantasy Life has a substantial focus on skills beyond combat. There are basically three different classifications for jobs: gatherers, who have abilities suited to gathering specific types of materials, producers, who use those materials for crafting goods, tools, and weapons, and combat classes. All classes can fight, but combat classes specialize in fighting at the cost of being largely useless for everything else. It’s a very fun and rewarding loop to develop all of the jobs so you can maximize what things you can do, but it’s also completely valid to beat the entire game playing as any job. I beat the game as an angler/fisherman just to see that it could be done.
thank you very much! wasn’t able to google earlier, so I really appreciate the reply.
