Nodes on the timeline I can travel to make this less of a hassle, but they don’t always get the best placement. Because the game isn’t exactly kind with easy ways to reinvigorate my team, I often have to jump through time just to stay at an inn and then work my way back to spot I left in this last chapter.
I don’t know if this is to pad the runtime or what, but after draining my magic points fighting the sixth stone block in a row, I start asking myself if I’m having fun. Radiant Historia‘s campaign is incredibly well-paced right until that final chapter which just throws battle after battle my way. Everything makes sense from beginning to the long, drawn-out, oh-god-please-just-let-it-be-over-with end. It’s honestly like a family friendly HBO series. The narrative is thick with plotlines that intersect and hidden motives that only come to light at the right time. Unlike much time traveling fiction, there aren’t many plotholes here.
The not-too-frequent jumps from timeline to timeline show how well-written and orchestrated this script is. If you’ve heard anything about Radiant Historia, you’ve probably heard its story is really good and I’m here to tell you that still rings true… mostly.
