Some stories will have gameplay mechanics that inform other eras
Want aLive A Livetip? While the game is fairly straightforward (you do a series of individual stories that connect) there’s one big thing you may do to make everything easier:take some breaks, and don’t be afraid to drop in and out of stories.
As we talked about in the review,Live A Liveis actuallycomprised of several eras with unique protagonists(with their own sets of skills and equipment):
Starting with Imperial China is a good way to get acclimated withLive A Live
AnotherLive A Livetip: you can pick any of them to start with, and really, there’s no wrong choice. However! Imperial China is one of the most “ramp”-prone stories: meaning, it eases you in more than say, Edo Japan or Present Day, which kick off with higher-stakes combat.
Speaking of: combat! If you dive into a story (like the aforementioned two) and are immediately pressed with figuring outLive A Live‘s combat system,it’s totally okay to head to the main menu, then quit to the “character/story select” screen. From there you can head into an era that might have a better “intro” so to speak, with more time to breathe and learn how to approach the combat grid and the movement mechanic.
