The Dissonance of Shadow Hearts
May. 19th, 2009 01:06 pmIn an effort to get my brain working today (I've been running reports and organizing proxy votes rather mindlessly all morning) I'm going to attempt to make some comments about Shadow Hearts: From the New World.
It's the third game in the series, but it's less a sequel and more another story in the same universe, according to various sources. I certainly haven't had any problems following the plot. The setup is fairly simple: In an alternate-history 1920s America, Johnny Garland loses his family in an accident, starts a detective agency, and gets drawn into secret world of demon-summoning magic in pursuit of the mysterious Killer and Lady.
( How is that dissonant? )
