This game is shit, as was Pandora's Tower. Xenoblade should have been the only one localized from the three. I can't wait for them to lose money because of this release.
e:In case it wasn't obvious I'm suggesting you don't waste time downloading it.

Wow someone is trying to steal Guild's spot for "GBAtemps worst opinion of all time".

Ignore this person, though Pandora's Tower was meh at best.

This is a fantastic game (I've actually played and finished it), one of the best JRPGs in recent times and it's a credit to Xseed to do what Nintendo didn't.

Its nice to finally see a scene release. I had to rip mine from a GameFly rental. I may find and try this however to see if it actually agrees with my WODE. (Strange issue, I've got a topic.) I need to find time to play more of this. Chapter one was awesome.

The learning curve is a bit steep, mainly due to my brain trying to bind controls to actions done automatically (like attacking), but this is a great example of what the Wii can do.

The game is OK. I wouldn't call it "one of the best JRPGs" as it is very story-focused and doesn't have as much freedom as most classic Final Fantasy games or Xenoblade Chronicles, the battle system also gets repetitive and it is rather short. Still I wouldn't call it bad. It's a nice snack for people who don't have time to play a larger RPG.

I liked the game mechanisms, graphical, voice acting, etc.
But I didn't like the way the story flow. (chapter by chapter)

You are thrown in the middle of nowhere, doing things that you don't understand why, and you complete the game still not understanding everything.
there's no back story. you play only a part of a bigger scheme/world which you never explore. You doesn't start at the beginning of this world's problem, but at the end.

It was still a good an enjoyable game, but I felt like it was missing something.
I'm used to play RPG where you start your adventure as a random guy, and little by little you understand your surrounding better and eventually find a goal in your adventure.

Hmmm, sounds like someone would like a prequel - The First Story, perhaps.

Options menu -> set attack to manual :yay:

Oh, okay. Haven't had a chance to check that much out. Thanks!

Or perhaps , the more adequate " The Second Last Story " ......

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
    +1
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:

    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm

    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
