Editor's Rating
Story - Elleria's narrative is a double-edged sword, captivating in its ambition yet muddled in execution. While the core concept of an immortal protagonist dragged back into a morally ambiguous war offers tantalizing possibilities, the characterization and motivations leave much to be desired. Yet, the writing is engaging enough to keep players hooked. - 70%
Visual - On the visual front, Elleria shines brightly. The artwork is strikingly good, boasting vivid character designs and beautifully detailed backgrounds that elevate the overall experience. This is one area where the game undoubtedly excels, creating an immersive environment that draws players into its world. The visual fidelity aligns well with the themes of fantasy and adventure, making every scene a feast. - 87%
Engagement - Engagement in Elleria can be a bit hit or miss. Players are often pulled in by the promise of choice and consequence, yet many feel that those choices lack real weight or impact. The semi-free roam mode can feel stale, with less exploration and interaction than expected. Players seem to encounter more “what do you want to kill with” dilemmas rather than meaningful engagement with the narrative. - 65%
Core Loop - The core loop of Elleria—make choices, see the consequences, repeat—needs some serious refinement. Many feedback points suggest that the game sometimes feels more like a kinetic novel with the illusion of choices rather than a dynamic narrative experience. The transition to semi-free roam can disrupt pacing, and often, players find themselves simply going through the motions. - 60%
