  1. [R1] Dislyte 1/5 · US Disgusting character reviews and zero moderation: The game itself is amazing. The visual style, the art direction, and the gameplay are top tier. However the in game community has completely crossed the line, and there is absolutely zero text moderation. The character review section is filled with disgusting, hypersexualized, and borderline pornographic comments that have been left completely igno
  2. [R2] Dislyte 5/5 · US Only one thing wrong: It’s a really good game with amazing graphics and lots to do in it and easily addicted, only issue is js got with is i just did a 10 summon and got a legendary but i went to look at their abilities, she or any of the others i summoned where not there. Other then that amazing game!
  3. [R4] Dislyte 2/5 · US Endgame sucks: Game was fun for awhile even got friends to play but end game sucks really bad. Nothing to do
  4. [R5] Dislyte 5/5 · US LOVE THIS GAME!!!: this is my favorite game to play ever. Im addicted, I recommend this game to literally everyone I see!!!💯💯💯
  5. [R12] Dislyte 3/5 · US So much Potential. Please read if you have the time.: Game is fun but too much going on. I stopped playing a while back as it annoyed me to get any echo I wanted, I had to do a slot machine/loot box system. Game felt like I was gambling just to get characters I wanted. I really was looking forward to using Athena but can’t get her to drop. As soon as I launch the game, I am hit with Extreme micr
  6. [R13] Dislyte 2/5 · US Almost Amazing: I have been playing this game on and off forEVER, but I have the same views as a lot of the player base. The character design is absolutely AMAZING. Every character has such good and though out design. The "gameplay" is so boring and repetitive that it becomes unbearable at times. I have spent some money, but I quickly realized how greedy Lilith became, and I just had to stop playi
  7. [R27] Dislyte 3/5 · US THIS IS FOR PAY TO WIN GAME!: JUST PLAY THIS FOR FUN NOT TO WIN YOULL JUST GET STRESS OUT OF THIS. ESPERS DROP LOW FOR NONE PAYERS PLAYER
  8. [R28] Dislyte 1/5 · US I’m Not Coming Back.: I started playing this game within the first year, and continued to do so for a long time. The game got worse. The paywalled content got more drastic. Now, they’re blatantly using AI generated images in the game. You can’t make a worse game with more expensive real-world currency prices and then not even make actual artwork for the game. I’m not coming back to this game again
  9. [R3] Dislyte 3/5 · US Umm: It keeps saying Japanese words almost every time I try to play you should really fix that
  10. [R15] Dislyte 3/5 · US Unfortunately Deleting: The game was good, it was fun. I had played for so long that I had 90% of the espers they came out with and fully resonated the epics and a few of my legendaries. Unfortunately my years worth of progress has been deleted and cannot be restored even though I never deleted my game. I don’t want to play and be bitter about it, so I’ll be deleting it shortly.
  11. [R18] Dislyte 3/5 · US Can I do anything about this?: Amazing game but I lost my progress since I hadn’t linked a email to my account with almost every character because I was away from the game when they erased all unlinked accounts I hadn’t linked an email to the account is there anyway to restore my account or do I have to start over
  12. [R7] Dislyte 1/5 · US Warning: Don’t use AI: I have already seen way too many people pointing out the use of AI in Meta Daylon’s Divinate art. If it is, I highly recommend replacing it and apologizing. If not, you need to prove it isn’t and acknowledge allegations. Letting things go as they are will only hurt the game.
  13. [R21] Dislyte 3/5 · US Want My Account Back: I used to love this game and was invested in to lore and would not stop talking about it to my friends. I took a break for a couple month and tried to go back on and suddenly it asked me to start over. I did not password or email lock my account because when I made the account it did not ask for a password or email lock it was just locked to my device. I stopped playing becau
  14. [R34] Dislyte 2/5 · US Completely Honest Review: I played the game 2 months after it came out. I played for about 1 1/2 years and I decided to check out the game after years of not playing. Other than more pay to win ways to make your character stronger, the game has not changed. I was heavy P2W, spending 1/3 of my paycheck every payday just to summon. I spent thousands on the game and had all of my characters maxed, ex
  15. [R46] Dislyte 1/5 · US Pay to play: This game is pay to play to the gods. There is too much grinding you have to do to even your guys to a competitive level. Eventually you'll hit a wall that makes it difficult to advance without pulling out the wallet. The characters are great but this game eventually becomes too frustrating to play and enjoy.
  16. [R61] Total Battle 1/5 · US Fake game: I downloaded the game cause the ad looked fun, but the game was stupid. Please no one buy this. I’m begging.
  17. [R63] Total Battle 3/5 · US Not quite what is advertised: The game play is all over the map. What you see in ads is fun, until you’re completely blocked from playing because you have to complete these insane tasks. Just let us play the game. Oh and you need WiFi/service. It’s an A for effort, but a big pass for me sadly.
  18. [R82] Total Battle 1/5 · US What even: This game is nothing like the previews
  19. [R84] Total Battle 3/5 · US It’s Fine: I like the intricacies of everything involved. It can be a little confusing. But I’m still waiting for game to match up with all of the ads I see. The ads look fun and none of my mini games have looked like that
  20. [R52] Dislyte 1/5 · US Time to Go: I have been with this game for about 4 years now and I decided today to quit. The game has some of the best music, art, story, character design, and content of any Gacha I have very played. Unfortunately at the end of the day the devs leaned way too far into the Gacha aspect. Now it is at the point where you are required to spend money to get new characters and all the characters you c
  21. [R64] Total Battle 1/5 · US This sucks: So too many ads
  22. [R95] Total Battle 5/5 · US The Apocalypse has begun: I love this game!!! It has absolutely NO ads! I’m out here killing the undead! Freeing all the citizens at last! So easy to maneuver I’m killin zombies on every round! What a way to ease anxiety Total battle gets 5stars! Hands down!
  23. [R96] Total Battle 3/5 · US Review: Good game way too many Ads just to get to the next level.
