A little review of PGR from a newbie
I started PGR just a little over a week ago and wanted to share my review of the game so far. I have played a lot of games including games as big as genshin to much smaller games such as guardian tales so I wanted to compare and see how PGR plays compared to these games.
First, character design is top-tier. I absolutely love how much detail can be seen in some constructs. Like plume, when the back of her legs glow orange and blue when she attacks and dodges. Small things like this show a lot of care in the designs. Also, each frame encapsulates the main thoughts and ideas of the construct but is different enough to feel fresh. Like, take Lucia and her hundreds of frames, plume is similar in ideas and morality to that of lotus but is much more caring and open to the player.
Secondly, the story is really good, however, it isn't as engaging as Genshin's or arknights (IN MY OPINION). Don't get me wrong it's good, I am enjoying it as we speak but it isn't as gripping as other games. I noticed that the relationship between the player and the constructs is similar to that of Arknights except there you're a "Doctor". I like that as it acts as a base or a backbone which the story can be fleshed out from.
Thirdly, the things you can do outside of just the story are quite a lot, and blackcards aren't as rare as other premium currencies (a welcome feeling). It rewards you for how much effort you put in the game. One of the main things I liked is the dorm isn't a necessary part of the game, you can enjoy it if you want, unlike AK which requires you to build your base to upgrade characters beyond a certain status.
The only downside I have come across is that it was incredibly overwhelming for me as a newbie. The first 2-3 days were a complete blur and somehow I ended up at lvl 40 on day 3 and unlocked more stuff. The combat takes time but isn't too difficult, the memory system took me some time as well and so did the skill points and rank ascensions. It was a lot to look into but the game makes it easy enough to get yourself into the groove. I'm still unsure of a few things but it is easy enough to figure out.
Currently, I'm lvl 59, with Rosetta (first S), Lucia and Luminance as my main constructs with XXI and Rozen being built in the background for Laura if when I get her. Rn, I have put a pause on the story for a bit to farm up for the 6* memories for my Rosetta and a da vinci set for my support (no clue why it's good but every support and tank seems to have a set). My alpha is about as built as she can get with 4 Patton and 2 Darwin with a 5* sword. So I feel pretty proud of how much I managed to do in just a week.
I am enjoying PGR quite a bit and the community is very welcoming to newbies so thanks for that! I hope to play for a while. That's the end of my review, I give the game a solid 4.5/5 which is the second highest I have rated a game so it's pretty good. Sorry for the long read just wanted to tell others how fun it has been so far.
