.hack//G.U. is back! This collection includes all 3 original .hack//G.U. titles, Rebirth, Reminisce, and Redemption, all fully restored and remastered. As well as an all new 4th Volume: .hack//G.U. Reconnection.
The game blends real-time combat, dungeon exploration, and social interaction within a simulated MMORPG called "The World". Players take control of the protagonist, Haseo, as he navigates this virtual environment.
The core gameplay revolves around exploring randomly generated field and dungeon areas, encountering enemies, and engaging in real-time action-oriented battles. Players directly control Haseo's movements and attacks, switching between different weapon types like dual blades, broad swords, and scythes, each with unique movesets and combos. The "Rengeki" system allows players to time their attacks to launch powerful combo finishers. Haseo can also summon a powerful Avatar creature to assist in battles against tougher foes. The combat is fast-paced, requiring careful timing of attacks and dodges.
As players progress, they gain access to more party members, weapons, and abilities to customize Haseo's playstyle. The leveling system allows Haseo and his party to grow stronger, unlocking new skills, though the developers have rebalanced the leveling curve to make the game somewhat easier overall.
Navigating the semi-randomized field and dungeon environments provides a sense of exploration and discovery, with players able to find items, solve puzzles, and uncover hidden secrets. Beyond combat and exploration, the game heavily emphasizes the simulation of "The World" as a living, breathing MMORPG, allowing players to interact with NPCs, read forums and emails, and engage with the virtual community.
Players have praised the depth and authenticity of the MMORPG simulation, as well as the satisfying real-time combat with its ability to switch between weapon types and utilize powerful Rengeki combos. However, some have noted the gameplay can become repetitive due to limited variety in dungeon environments and enemy types, and the rebalanced leveling system can make the game feel overpowered at times.
