Instead they mostly just allow you to do what you were already doing more efficiently, like adding bonus damage or extra attacks to your strings. That might sound pretty definitively “RPG-ish,” but these unlockable abilities don’t really end up letting you differentiate a character build and create a unique fighting style. There are levels, but these don’t contribute much beyond experience points which unlock new abilities. The few RPG elements that do exist are ultimately pretty light.

At roughly the same time, a series of weird monster-esque figures called Others, who exclusively feed on human brains, appeared and began attacking people all across the planet. In the far distant future, humanity has discovered a specific hormone in human brains that allows them to access special psionic powers. The premise of Scarlet Nexus isn’t an easy one to summarize. But is it a worthwhile diversion from that inevitable decision? Fortunately, Bandai Namco was kind enough to provide a new game that let me postpone that choice, namely Scarlet Nexus.
