仙剑十七年老粉丝了，1-6部的前八部都是多周目通关，我一向对仙剑的要求很低，哪怕仙六优化差成那个样子但是仙六的剧情没得黑，你仙七把剧情扔了那真没夸的点了啊，作为老粉丝，钱我掏，该骂还得骂，骂完下作继续买，不会惯着你北软的

The more expectation, the more disappointment.

中華RPGは古剣奇譚とこれで2作遊んだが共通して思ったのが
名前や地名の読み方の正解が分からないので
ルビかフルローカライズされないときついという事（古剣奇譚は一部だけあった）
ゲームの没入感的にも致命的だと思う

そんなに悪くはないのだけど、良ゲーとは言い切れない感じ
次回作でクオリティ上がってれば買うとは思う

【良かった点】
・音楽
　街中の音楽やエンディングはめちゃ好み
・グラフィック
　キャラクターの表情とモーション以外はいい、表情とモーションは固さが見える

【微妙点】
・ロードの合間に少しだけ音楽が漏れたりする
・ジャンプの挙動がやたら軽い
・段差に引っかかる
・攻撃時の効果音（ダウン時（無音）や斬撃音は見直した方がいいと思う）
・戦闘は非常に微妙、テイルズシリーズと比べると勝ってる点はなし
エフェクトは良かった
・道中のミニゲームいらない
・その他色々

I've been a longtime fan of the Sword and Fairy franchise, going back to the first game that started it all on DOS. I wouldn't call myself a diehard fan or anything like that, but I've kept my interest in the franchise going over the years as games and dramas come out one after another.

Let's get the good out of the way. The series in terms of graphical presentation has come a long way. This game is absolutely gorgeous in every area with RTX enabled and DLSS does maintain the framerate quite well. The soundtrack, while a bit light on tracks is decent. Instrumentation is excellent and the music does add to the overall presentation and give you a sense of belonging. Character models are very well animated and the in-game cutscenes are also well made.

And...here comes the not-so-good. The game is 100% linear, you don't have any influence on anything and invisible walls are present everywhere. The plot is very, very cliche and you pretty much knew exactly what was going to happen the first few hours into the game. It is also quite short, I've done all but one sidequest and only clocked in less than 30 hours. There is virtually no customization, equipment progression is very clear and you don't really have to put in any thought as it's more or less just hit them and dodge their attacks, and the AI isn't really that difficult in combat to go against.

The puzzles are pretty well designed, there is one mini (card) game that you can play and it just feels like Sword & Fairy 7 basically took AAA graphical quality and mashed other proven JRPG ideas together into a very short, cliche and crunched game. Performance can be absolutely awful with RTX enabled in parts, you experience massive drops and every now and then unforgiveable bugs happen, like the boss won't die after fully depleting its HP, hitting Quit instead saves and so on. Texture pop-in is a massive issue and really detracts from the immersion and overall experience, I am running this on a RTX 3080 Ti and R9 5900X and basically getting 100+ fps solid, I don't understand how the frame times are so bad and textures pop in endlessly. It just doesn't feel like this game really has any polish, even though it's not bad and had potential to be great. I guess from a studio the size of Softstar, it's really not a bad job by any means but when really the only good things going for the game are graphics and music, as an RPG I can't really recommend it. There has to be an intriguing story to back it all up and make the experience worthwhile.

You also play for maybe 5-10 minutes at a time only to be forced to watch cutscenes for 15+ minutes at a time. They're pretty and the voice acting is good, but I mean...come on. The game is only ~20-30 hours if you do the sidequests as is, 55-60% of that is cutscenes. As a whole experience, the game fell quite short of its graphical presentation, it's just a pretty-looking shell of something that could've been awesome.

本来评论想说很多的，但是都没说，我就只想说，在过去十几年政策和tx之流，还有外国3a游戏的各种“努力”下，国产单机真的是没有未来了。170的李逍遥皮肤农药一堆人买，120的游戏太贵，愿意出这个钱的又挑嘴。就120块的东西很多人拿着外国三四百的3a大作的标准来比着说。游戏做的不好的地方可以提，建议也可以说，但是很多人就直接吧这游戏踩死说成垃圾了。这让我想起曾经在某个公司内部老总说的话“你们这些玩单机的成天p事要求一堆，还赚不了几个钱，傻子才做”。今年都已经2022年了快，能拿来和仙剑比的甚至国内就只找的出一个叫古剑奇谭的。就等一个黑神话看能不能奶活国内市场了，我给差评已经和这游戏好不好玩没关系了，国产单机死了赶紧埋了吧，都别做了。

音楽、映像は素晴らしい。声優さんの声も可愛くてイイと思うが、ムービーが長すぎる。途中途中に変なミニゲームが入ってくる。幸いなことにほっておくとLBボタンでスキップできるから助かるが、JRPGの糞なところまでパクらんでいいよ。
気がついたら仲間がいなくなっていたり、スキルを覚えていたり、よくわからん。
途中で飽きたのでムービーをスキップしまくっていたらストーリーが全くわからなくなってしまい、二十一章でやる気をなくした。

操作キャラクターの動きが軽すぎる
特にジャンプがひどい　
スーファミのプリンスオブペルシャの方がいい動きしてた　
白タイツもマイナス

You follow the story of four martial artists clad in flowery silk. They unknowingly embark on an epic journey to uncover the great conspiracy and stop the war between humans, deamons, and gods from happening again. The world is a beautiful chinese mythological fantasy; it is filled with spirits, fallen deities, belligerent daemons, humans trying to amass spiritual power to become immortal and powerfull.

The game has excellent graphics and is quite an eye-candy. The art style is consistent and bright. Main characters are detailed and well animated - especially their faces. The sound is authentic instrumental with clear melody. The locations are scenic and have different feel to them. The atmosphere is great.

The plot is well-crafted and paced for the most part. It's the main selling point of the game. It is dramatic and reactive. The main cast does not seem to have a clean end-goal in sight outside the immediate problem. You discover the big conspiracy by accident. Characters are fleshed out. The main cast logically developes through the story. There is some slow-burn romance. The story is self-contained and complete.

Half the time playing the game is spent watching beautiful cinematic cutsenes, listening to a conversation between characters, or reading in-game lore. Characters only speak in chinese. There are only English subtitles that at time feel machine translated. You encounter strange phrases like "Why are look so tired?", "Why is there so noisy?", "He can be considered retribution", "We've been stolen a lot of things recently."; inconsistent world terminology ("gentle beasts" = "mild beasts"); mistypos. Reading lore is painful, which is a real shame.

The other half of the game consists of actual gameplay. There is no seamless open world. You explore linear yet spacious enough locations - they contain a lot of chests with usefull items or books with lore. Combat happens in real time. You can control one party member that can be switched instantly in or out of battle - AI controls the rest. Each party member has unique fighting style with active abilities and combos. Damage can be avoided by dodging. AI pathing is atrocious - party members contantly get stuck somewhere and then the game teleports them behind your back. Never the less, AI-controlled party members are usefull in battles. They deal damage, use active abilities, dodge, and can finish bosses by themselves while you run around doing nothing. Monsters are varied and have unique attacks. Boss fights have mechanics. The gameplay is further diversified by inclusion of jumping and logical puzzles, QTEs, optional card game, four stealth missions each being unique in mechanics, snowboarding mission, rhythm dance mini-game, underwater mission.

Make no mistake. This is no RPG. You have zero choice how the story unfolds - story is linear. Character interactions are set in stone. The plots dictates everything. Party members join and leave; you get locked into playing a specific character; zones that you could previously visit suddenly become inaccesible, game actively uses insivible walls to restrict you. Character customization is limited. You can slightly tweak the weapons through upgrade system but there is always only one weapon worth using. And after 2/3 of the game you finally have to make a choice of what active abilities you want to use in battle.

The game lacks polish. You notice object popping in distance. High resolution textures are loaded with a lag. Some npc are not animated at all and stand earrily still in one pose. Sometimes characters talk without lip movement or any kind of change in facial expression. Equiped weapons and costumes can suddenly revert to default models in cutscenes. Some transitions between animations are janky. There is noticeable clipping - weapons go through clothes, clothes go through table. In fast paced cutscenes fps can drop subtantially.

I do not regret playing this game. It is a chipped diamond, but I can only recommend it to those who (1) speak Chinese, (2) or want a game in chinese fantasy setting, (3) or have played everything else and need MORE. There are simply better games out there that are just as good looking, have a compelling story and decent combat system but are polished and have readeable texts NOT written in broken English and have English voice acting.

Updated: The game crashes again and my save is no longer accessible. This is the 2nd time I lose all my progress. I give up on this game, too buggy!!!

The game is fun, I have more fun with the combat and art design than Tale of Arises. That's is really huge imo since I think SnF7 is from a small dev team. However, it is so buggy, like the worst... This is like a beta test rather than a proper release and we are paying for it, financially and timely. After playing for a while, game fps will drop to under 10 and the only way to fix it is to restart the client. I have 20h into the game and it crashes. Now, I can not load my save and I think I'll have to redo from the beginning (ridiculous!).

As the game stands, even though I really like it when it works, and it is really nice to see a Wuxia theme game
(which are not a lot around). I would have to say No. It is so lame that the bugs take away so much from the experience, not even counting the fact that anytime I could be screwed into losing my save and its progress. The game has so much potential, yet is buried through its massive bug issues!

In few months, when the dev polishes out this game, I think it will be a really fun package to play and test your system graphic and OC!

An aesthetic masterpiece and barely a videogame.

The environments and character designs are gorgeous. There are some incredible fight scenes. You will not be taking part in these. So far, I'm about 3 hours in and have had maybe 20 minutes of game. This game is, essentially, a wuxia visual novel. If that sounds appealing, you should absolutely give this a shot, but otherwise give this thing a wide berth.
