I'd consider myself a Japanese game fan, and working for Idea Fuck seems like a nightmare to me.

“Is there any specific genre you would like us to try next?”

Is "good games" a genre? How about making one?

Is Record of Agarest War really that bad? I have looked at it quite a few times but am unsure if I should bite or not.

I liked it. It's been a slow burn for me since it's such a super long strategy RPG. I did manage to convice Zucas to start playing it and he ended up beating it and Agarest Zero in a month. So, there are people out there who enjoy their games.

That said, heard some very good things about the 2nd and 3rd Hyperdimension Neptunia titles. I know Tor has said that they're big improvements over the first.

I might give it a look though, although it is more for my fiance than it is for me. Will need to look into it a bit more or possibly find a way to demo it.

She tends to be very bias towards the Disgaea style for these games, so i'm skeptical she will give it a shot.
