Editorial Review:
Stella Deus: The Gate Of Eternity is an incredible game world, completely hand-drawn and with voiced dialogue that brings the world to life. A deadly mistcalled the "Miasma" spreads across the land, killing all in its path. Having forsaken hope, the inhabitants simply await their deaths -- except a young soldier and female shaman who believe they can stop their eventual extinction.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Fun but not a very sustainable game
There are a lot of classic tactics games - Final Fantasy Tactics series, Disgaea series and the whole lot of Nippon Ichi iterations. Stella Deus is by Atlus, with the same Atlus style graphics and interesting gameplay. But it just couldn't match up with its counterparts in the Tactics Camp.
This doesn't mean that it is a bad game. It is a very decent game but the flexibility it offers and the replay value of the game are not as high as many other Tactics game. First about the job classes. ... Read More
Rating: - Really Easy or Really Hard, Interesting Tactics Offering
Stella Deus is one of the few decent tactics games available for the PS2/X system, produced by a company with a reputation for tactics games. Personally, I rate it near the bottom of good tactics games, but it makes the list.
Sound is average, graphics on the higher end for tactics games, and special attack animations are on the long side. This makes game pacing slower than Disgaea, but not as slow as La Pucelle. General Viper, a sub-boss in the early game, has the worst English voice actor ... Read More
Rating:  - Stella Deus is neither fun nor very good.
Stella Deus is a tactical rpg from Atlus. The game plays very similar to past tactical rpgs like Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogres, and Disgaea. Unlike traditional role-playing games where the hero character, and the supporting NPCs who join him, can roam the roads, forests and lands between cities and regions freely, tactic games pretty much just linear road-links which takes a character icon from one marker to the next signifying a cities on the world map.
Like all tactics-based rpgs, Stella ... Read More
Rating:  - An Absolutely Vile Localization
Well, like others who got this game, I was drawn in by the very fine art of the cover, and the fact that it's a tactics game. In fact this game is not unappealing on the outside, it's not until the game starts that the absolutely appalling voice acting reminds you that: Yes, this is a Japanese video game, only it has been poorly converted into English to scrape some money off the bottom of the US economy.
The art work may have cost a bundle to make in the first place, but the localization was apparently ... Read More
Rating: - Poor effort...
This game was a great disappointment. I am a huge RPG fan, and have been unhappy lately with the offerings. Everything is "action" RPGs...real time combat, so many movies your sould screams with impatience, lots of button-mashing tricks to perform, you can beat a game without ever learning a strategy deeper than "hit the attack button." I have been pining for a decent RPG with turn-based combat that forces you to THINK. This game was not it.
The Plus:
No random encounters. Random encounters can ... Read More
