The game looks good graphically but the pass system is absolutely trash. Fire Tornado's animation is garbage too, the flames look like they were made on Paint...

I don't know what to think of this. Doesn't look promising at all. This meshing the Striker-like gameplay with RPG element of IE doesn't look smooth at all.

I agree that the pass system is absoulutely broken. I would prefer that it needs to be nerfed in comparison to the DS and 3DS series to justifly the use of pass wazas but it's still very unpolished.

There is this unnatural feeling towards the animation, like it's extremely stiff and rigid.

If this is the test product, then there is little to hope for the final product unless they delay it again. They need to fix this as soon as possible. At best, we can expect it somewhere near the end of October or even the end of November otherwise, it's needs to be pushed for a 2019 release. At the current state, it could be passable in the JP market but will be absoulutely lampooned by the international one.
