YMMV / Sword and Fairy 7

Go To

  • Narm: Youlian is the first Heaven Demon that appears in the story. She is shown to be a powerful No-Nonsense Nemesis. The problem? She fights with what is effectively a lute, using it to play Magic Music. She kills the entire scene when she whips it out and starts intensely play some music with stone-cold expression on her face.
  • That One Attack: Chiru, the third Vicious Beast, is fought on a riverside. One of his attacks is to dive into the river and send a wave of water at the party. It has a ridiculously large range, is nearly guaranteed to hit the entire party, and hits harder than one would think. It is telegraphed by a roar, but you'll never recover from an attack animation fast enough to godge it.
  • That One Sidequest: Getting the final spirit, Xiaoqi, is very time-consuming. The player needs to complete all Minigames (specifically, all jumping and card games). The former runs on Some Dexterity Required, and the latter is highly random. Also, there is no way to check which games were already completed without talking to corresponding NPC, and they tend to be located pretty far away from fast travel destinations.
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: The game looks beautiful. Every single area is packed with small, atmospheric details, and no animation in cutscenes is reused twice, avoiding Going Through the Motions. The real high point is lighting, as the game uses ray tracing technology to generate realistic shadows and reflections.
