Overview

Fallen Legion: Flames of Rebellion (PS Vita) launch trailer

The PlayStation Vita version of Fallen Legion, both versions have there own story and events following a different main character. "Claim the throne in Fallen Legion: Flames of Rebellion! Join Legatus Laendur, a cunning general who hails from a land devoured by the Fenumian Empire, as he fights to overthrow the royal family. Fallen Legion has an intense battle system where you control up to four characters simultaneously. One second your Exemplars are slashing a manticore and the next you’re commanding your team to block right before a magic spell hits to reflect it back at your foes. In between battles, you make split-second decisions that change how the game unfolds. Will you raid an innocent village for a strength buff? Or stand up to a warmongering governor instead of resurrecting a fallen party member? Each choice you make bestows a different power-up and permanently changes the world."

Reception

Not too long ago, Fallen Legion: Flames of Rebellion was out on the Vita, along with its counterpart Sins of an Empire for the PS4. While I did enjoy the experience of Flames of Rebellion on the Vita, it did have some minor issues compared to its PS4 relative. Thankfully, with this PS4 port, not only can you own the two titles for the same system, but...

With a well-written but quite complex story and its simplistic and sometimes frustrating gameplay, Fallen Legion feels like it doesn't know where to stand. Even though it's far from perfect, this game that allow us to experience two different stories on PS4 et PS Vita can definitely entertain you if you're not too demanding.

A short while ago I had the opportunity to review Fallen Legion for the PS4, and I mentioned that I hadn’t had the opportunity to play the Vita version. Well, now I have, and my quote of “There are a lot of issues that people can be divided on: music, politics, flavors of jellybeans, and of course also ruling a country” is proving its worth even more...

Flames of Rebellion has a very similar content when compared to Sins of an Empire. Yes, the story told is different and more enjoyable, but both are played in the same way and therefore carry the same flaws. The combat can be fun for a while, but it becomes repetitive due its lack of depth. The choices system also lacks development and fails to immerse...

Despite a few technical issues, Fallen Legion: Flames of Rebellion offers up a satisfying role-playing experience.
