While the battle system described above is simplistic, it's engaging as well. Reggie's got a crush! Reggie's got a crush! As the game progresses, the player is offered more classes, and towards the end, players can swap classes, starting from scratch at level one.
There are many class options, such as the Pop Star who sings and dances, buffing and healing party members, or the Princess class, which offers both offensive and defensive tactics while serving tea and crumpets. Party members take action automatically, while the player can set commands for their Mii. For example, if a character has an air-headed personality, they may forget to act during combat, while someone who is energetic may become hyperactive, meaning their damage output is doubled. How many people can say that they stopped an epic battle between Prince Terminator and Prince Bob Ross in regard to grabbing Princess Sadness' hand in marriage? Being able to put your friends or other Miis from the Miiverse into these character roles is easily the best part of Miitopia, as it provides a unique kind of humor for those of us who are immature.Įach party member has a unique personality trait that describes them, and these traits can take effect during the game's turn-based combat. Let's just say the drama is nonstop in Miitopia. These conversations can be secrets about other teammates, characters exchanging gifts, or even confessing their feelings for one another.
Mainly, there's a lot of random interactions wherein the party members will stop and have a chat, or dialogue will occur amongst companions when resting in the inn. While this story doesn't exactly sound original in any way, there's a quirkiness to how the narrative is presented. As the intrepid hero, the player's main task is slaying the Dark Lord and restoring the lost faces of various townsfolk that are encountered. This Dark Lord wants to rule over Miitopia and ensure that every person is faceless. In the world of Miitopia, people are having their faces stolen by a Dark Lord. Enter Miitopia, an RPG for Nintendo Miis, allowing them to slay a Dark Lord, save innocent townspeople's faces, and perhaps find romance along the way. While chatting with a good friend of mine, I was encouraged to try an RPG that I would have never picked up otherwise. Sure, it's fun to have a little avatar of yourself, but outside of games like Tomodachi Life, not a whole lot was being done with our little Mii buddies for me to gain interest. + Fun interactions and personalities for Miis
