Arti 02/19/21 8:23:43 PM #181:	#15 - Radiant Historia (DS, 2011) Radiant Historia is the best turn-based jRPG released on a Nintendo handheld in North America. Remember that statement for later. In typical Atlus fashion the game came out for the DS only a month before the 3DS was set to release, and was largely ignored at the time but received a 3DS remake later on (which I have not played). Radiant Historia's main character is Stocke, and he's no jRPG teenager on a quest to save the world here; this guy's a military man who isn't an idiot and will typically make better strategies in the game, making good use of the White Chronicle, a device that can change the events of time. Stocke goes down two paths in the game, both of which he uses his unique abilities and events in the other timeline to continue each one separately. It works relatively well even with the disjointed timeline being as it is. One of the main highlights of Radiant Historia is the battle system, where each party is on a 3x3 grid. Several actions attack certain areas of the grid, other actions may set a trap on a certain square, and some may knock opponents around the grid. Using these abilities to move enemies around and chaining your attacks together is the key to dealing massive damage to enemy opponents. Several bosses, however, take up the whole grid and make this battle system somewhat useless in the end, which is kind of a silly way to make the game harder. I've always been a big fan of the soundtrack (but I know board 8 isn't, as VGMC has told me this for years). I've put down a few tracks to listen to, if you want!
