NG+ is just a new difficulty.

[ZoSo]

So, i just heard in NG+ you don't carry ANYTHING, it's just a normal game with higher difficulty. I'm actually pretty disappointed by this, considering i spent 40 hours getting my gear and leveling characters with the illusion in mind to carry them to NG+ and complete everything there.

Now the idea of starting everything over from zero just to deal with more spongy enemies doesn't look fun at all. Just my 2 cents.

[Mash]

Is there any description in the game about this mode. Could you share with us screenshot with this description? I can't believe that it is just the same game but difficult is higher. The concept of NG+ is totally different. Or this is a misunderstanding of the mode, or they just wrong named it.

What is your Source of Information?

I am wondering what the NG+ is too. Some Game Reviews tell that the NG+ mode is very clever and nice.

I doubt they would say that when its just a Reset and u start over From lvl 1 and Replay everything.

This is really not how NG+ should work. And what i saw from the game till now (lvl24) i dont think it will be this way.

Things like: Beastperks, Hero Perks etc CANT be resetted. Or at least should not be , as this it what improves the Party and NG+ is all there for further Improve it. Man i really like the Imagination of having fully 100/100 Perks spent on my Heros.

New Game Plus in Battle Chaser is not a traditional NG+ where you play the game a second time as a god, murdering everything with your overpowered characters and ultimate weapons. Instead, your progress is wiped completely and the difficulty is ramped up. It's an interesting choice, and will essentially just make the game take longer and not necessarily be more interesting or fun, but it is what it is. You will likely need to grind out levels even more than you did the first time, so be patient.

No, it's not just a new difficulty...
Here the NG+ in-game tooltip :
https://ibb.co/now4tw

You loose : items, levels
You keep : beasts perks, perks, abilities

[ZoSo]

Well, is not so bad. But working again to get all the items is not fun at all, cause i JUST did all that grind and the point of a NG+ is to keep enjoying the game with the gear and progress you unlocked, not to unlock it again.

[Enfys Ellezard]

I was kinda hoping it would just make enemies level 30 like you on every map with each of them having new mechanic instead.

It's just a "Bloated Perk" mode then. Replay with both tree filled out.

[ZoSo]

They want to sell the NG+ mode like it's "innovative" and "interesting", but all players will think about it, is that is annoying. Nobody is in the mood to grind for every gear and level again, with even more spongy enemies. You earned that already, what you wanna do with it, is to enjoy it.

They should have created a decent enough difficulty in NG+ to put all that gear to test and still have a challenge. I have several legendaries now, and even legendary difficult in the last dungeon is a cakewalk. There are not super hard bosses that i need that gear for, like in FF games, for example. You are basically crafting "god-mode" in order to farm Arena levels, without any reward for it or leaderboards to compete against.

[Enfys Ellezard]

I don't think there was much of a plan to make the game challenging. It's just a number race from one location to another.

[ZoSo]

That's always a bad decision. Players need a motivation to keep them moving forward. If you are OP, the game loses it's purpose. In this game you get most legendary weapons AFTER having finished pretty much everything, so it's pointless to get it the first place. There is nothing that requires that kind of power.

Since i got them, all my gameplay consist on pressing A, A, A, A, until the combat is done.

[Enfys Ellezard]

There's a good reason why people say Turn-based is a dying genre. Sure it's fun for some but 99% of them turn into number battle grind-based more than strategy and tactical because it takes way too much work to create a bunch of unique enemies. Easier to just recolor the model and make them reuse the same skill with auto scaled stat.

[ZoSo]

Well, i was thinking more about something like the ARMA enemies from Final Fantasy VII. The Black Eons from FFX. Stuff like that. Not so hard to make, but alteast they give you a purpose to get the best gear and strategy possible to beat them.

I killed the last boss with one ability. Other than that, the game has been a blast for me.

For the NG+ bad reviews, testers need to go deeper..
Chheck this out : https://ibb.co/neFjbG

You can directly choose the third difficulty (no hard first), and there is no "normal mode", only hard, legendary and a new one MYTHICAL. You want challenge, go NG+, maybe legendary weapons will be useful at the end :p

So next time please, play the NG+ before saying it's only a new walktrough, it's not. It's hardcore, and reveal all the combat potential.

[Auris]

hey since you already finished the game can you tell me how many characters do you get to pick from total?

Well let's call the kettle black then...Have you played and finished NG+?
He sighted information fromm a source (a bad one admittedly).
Sounds like your doing the same.
Telling the guy to actually play itt is sorta strange when your answer is quoted from noon experience also?
