Which game can you compare it with?

[peakey]

Can you tell me which games are like scarlet nexus? Is it souls like or dmc?

[TotemMX]

I think is better to play it or watch a stream. Is not a "souls", neither a hack and slash like DMC/Bayonetta.

The combat feels "fresh", but definitely this game "doesn't reinvent the wheel".

narrative wise Odin Sphere, gameplay.. SW:forced unleashed with all the amounts of YEET

[Arndell]

In my opinion it has two comparisons for me.
The gameplay is DMC / Bayonetta "light", less combos and not as fast paced, but in a good way.

The story stuff has a Persona vibe to it, again, not as deep, but building character friendship levels to be rewarded with cutscenes and hideout visual upgrades and in very much Persona 5 style, higher friendship levels provide quite substantial gameplay buffs.

The way the music queues activate according to jovial / serious / relaxing scenarios also feels similar to Persona, in that it uses the same tracks every time to help guide what the script is portraying.



I only completed Yuito story so far, the middle of the game is substantially different depending on which character you pick, but imo, the game is pretty damn solid, I like it a lot.

Really close to Astral chain id say...

I would say it's a bit Nier: automata + Persona 5: strikers

It's a lite version of traditional action games, like DMC, Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden, etc. You've got linear story and levels, fancy combos, fast paced combat in closed areas. The combos are relatively simplified, and timings are more tolerant.

This game is like a mix of Tales of, .hack, and Persona. It's a pretty typical narrative- and character-driven JRPG. The story may not be the most original, but the action is secondary to it. In-between fights you will be reading and listening to a lot of dialogue.

DMC x Monster Hunter imo.

[Green Odin]

Control, DMC and a touch of Persona 5 (in both flavor and combat choices).

[AL'T]

God Eater+ Code Vein + MGS Rising

This was definitely my first thought.

Not sure how useful the comparison is, since it feels like not a ton of people played Astral Chain :)

Especially with the combination of 'regular' combat with a secondary system you control at the same time, it's a lot of the same feel.

Definitely more character interaction/story in Scarlet Nexus, though.
