For the first few hours it lulls the player into thinking the game is going to tell a parallel story of sorts, only to rather quickly converge back with the Far East branch of the first installment, and many of the characters featured there. Set three years after the first installment, part 2 begins by seemingly adopting another perspective on the conflict, centering around what is basically a subsidiary of the world controlling military organization Fenrir, and the unique members of the team, known as Blood. Who are mostly a group of attractive young adults and teens with strange fashion senses who wield gigantic morphing biological weapons known as God Arcs. God Eater is set in a post-apocalyptic world where most of human society was destroyed by beings known as Aragami, monsters who are supposedly composed of a group of free thinking cells that can only be defeated by God Eaters. This means that many of the mechanics of GE2 appeared in GER, and the notable improvements are slim as such.īefore getting too deeply into the comparison game that I gravitate towards when reviewing sequels, I should probably explain the game in more detail. Despite being a sequel that came out a few months after GER in the west, GE2 was actually released several months before GER in Japan. It was the kind of game that could very much benefit from a fully fledged sequel that reworks things and tries to maximize the core appeal, but that is not the case with God Eater 2: Rage Burst. It’s been nearly a year since I reviewed God Eater Resurrection, an action oriented hunting game that was very promising, but struggled when faced with irksome minutia and over complicated mechanics.
