The thing that captivated me was the world the game takes place on.The Bionis is a giant mech like being that is shown during the beginning of the game fighting another giant whose name is the Mechonis.While you are playing you can see the mechonis when you look towards the sky.
The story is about the struggle between the beings of the Bionis and the Mechonis.Your village is attacked by the Mechon and you are then forced to wield a legendary blade known as the monado.Which is the only blade capable of destroying the mechon,but then a masked mechon appears and your blade is innefecctive which is explained later on in the game.
The combat in this game is real time and your attacks are layed out in an mmo fashion.Each attack must cool down after use.It takes a while to get used to the combat and I have heard people give up much to soon because the combat is much too complicated.Well it kind of is because I tried playing it again after several months and I pretty much had to start a new game just to remember what each ability did.The only thing that is wrong with this game is its price.Sellers are hiking up the price which basically means less
