James D. Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Anyone else psyched for this game? This may be the reason I buy an X-Box 360. I love Chopin's music and to have an entire RPG center around it makes me wanna do my happy dance. The designs look spectacular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 I really liked the demo. If you like old school Japanese RPGs, you'll love this one. It's the prettiest game I have ever seen art direction wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 It's a lot better than Blue Dragon. That one got really boring after awhile, and you can do everything with one button. ES makes you work a little and you can attack as many times as you want before the meter runs down. It also has different attacks depending on if you are in a shadow, or sunlight. It makes it challenging when in a forest, and you can't use your heal spell because of all the shadows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragernok2002 Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 After DMC4, COD4 and Ace Combat, this is the 360 game I am most excited about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Robinson Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 It certainly sounds interesting from what I've read about it. If I ever get a 360, I'll probably grab a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragernok2002 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 I picked up the game and so far I really like it, The graphics and music are awesome and the combat system is nice as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted January 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 As I said on WFP, I *heart* this game. The graphics are beautiful and the score is just on a whole other world of awesome. I generally like the combat system, but I could do without the whole combat system changing up occasionally thing. You could have infinite "tactical time" on one party level, but then your party goes up to the next level and the entire schematics change and you only get two seconds of tactical time and then your action meter (i.e., the time you have to attack an enemy) starts running down. Other than that, I have no complaints at all. If you love RPG's and own a 360, you have no excuse to not get this game. (Eventually, it'll be released on PS3, too.)

JackFetch Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I'm trying to get into this game but I haven't been able to just sit and play it yet. I've only been able to sit down for about an hour twice, and the opening scene was half an hour long it felt like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragernok2002 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I'm having the same problem as Jack, I can only go an hour or so at a time before I have to turn it off. I made good head way at the start but now I'm finding it tough to get into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I played it for about 5 hours today. At one point it all just clicked and I realized how you are supposed to be fighting, and that you don't use the special attacks all the time. After that, the game felt super easy. The story is hard to get into because it jumps around a lot, but hey, it's Japanese. That's what they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted February 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Yeah, it seems like you are introduced to a new character every 20 minutes. I'm writing a review of this for the website, so I can more clearly explain my thoughts on the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
