Once I have all played the entire predecessor, I allowed myself well this game.
It has been written a lot, which is why I would like to mention a few points:
Free movement:
If you should move the figures on small cards, and after every meter the game is interrupted by a film clip with loading time, which is annoying pretty.
The idea that the figures are to run to their destination, I find good, but the implementation leaves much to be desired.
On average, you walk 3 minutes to the area, waiting plus min. 2 minutes, until the next movie is loading and then annoyed at some point over the interruption in the flow of the game.
Battles:
The fights are fun, but they are actually relatively simple. With some figures I get along better, less with others.
Surprised, I am first of all that according to some film sequences, with no real explanation, the character at a time other jutsu than previously (Naruto red hot, before and after the fight with the revived Rai Kage).
The special battles are very well done and really liked me.
Again and again one looks forward, if you noticed that now comes a special fight.
Currently, I play the final chapter, so I'm not quite through with the game.
Basically makes the whole but a lot of fun, because you can work some small influence on the story from certain points.
In the first race I always opted for the "Legend" decisions will, therefore, take accordingly the second pass the other way.
So far I have also just decided to go for the main story, for this I want to play different characters to see what they can (especially interested me Madara).
All in all I would definitely recommend the game.
I still have hope that someday a real Naruto RPG appears that tells the complete story and a longer season offers. With great side missions where you can learn, for example, or certain jutsu fighting techniques learned.
Presumably, the market for it is not available.
Addendum:
Meanwhile, I've played the last mission.
Compared to all the other battles they were here pretty hard - great!
After the last mission I took care of smaller battles in Konoha who still make fun - I'm thrilled.
I now still trying to unlock the last characters and test them then they're through.
I can say that I look forward to the next game already.
Great story and despite everything fun game.
According to Display in the game I have 35 hours needed to complete the game to play through.
Seems to me frankly something much before, possibly the season the previous games were already taken into account here.
In conclusion, I rate the game but with 5 stars - It has entertained me very well, was sometimes every now and then varied and has also moved me at certain points but - This is not creating a lot of games.
