Maybe the thread should have been called let's hate on Star Ocean. Personally I enjoyed the game. I've played it for over 160 hours and the characters really grew on me. The story may not have been anything groundbreaking but it doesn't strike me as anything worse than a B scifi movie. I think a lot of hate for the game exists due to Lymle. She is an odd choice for a character and her voice acting is more or less universally hated. However killing things with an exploding fire dog=Win. I also loved the battle trophies they are like achievements inside achievements. Again I am not saying the story is the best ever but what is it that is so much worse than other RPGs kay? I see no reason why your wife would dislike Star Ocean.
