While I admit Gate of Firmament has a lot of flawed and old design, I enjoy the feel and story greatly compare to XY7. That is to say out of the translated to english games, there are many more noteworthy ones if you are fine playing on chinese as well.
Gu Jian 3, Tale of Wuxia or Gate of Firmament I would say sword and fairy 7 is the way to go if you only want one of those 2.īut if you want a good chinese RPG then I would recommend: Sword and fairy series had some terrible last few games, so 7 is very good in comparison to those, especially compared to 6, which is also translated and considered worst in the series. Sword and Fairy 7 also stepped away from the traditional turn based combat, but did it much better and as mentioned in approximately FF15 style. It's a side game, but it's a very good one and true RPG. If you want a good 'real' Xuan Yuan game - I recommend trying 'Gate of Firmament', which is the only translated Xuan Yuan game. Originally posted by Hentaika:Xuan Yuan 7 is arguably worst game of the series, instead of classical RPG they decided on making a terrible linear soulslike game.
