The reason Infinite Undiscovery was average was not because of the name, it was because of the gameplay, poor pacing, and general poor game design. I am still going to get this game, but I am not as excited as I would have been if tri-ace had not just made IU and it is getting average reviews (though that remains to be seen)

If you played any other Star Ocean games, you'd know it's nothing like IU. So who cares about the score it got, it shouldn't affect what you think of the Star Ocean series. If they were to release an IU2 then your concern would be valid. It's like if you've let a score on a Mario Party affect what you think of Mario Galaxy... It would make no sence. Two different games.

I have played another SO game, though I never finished it, but it has a very similar battle system, and IU looked poor, and it was poor written and designed, and given that both games are made by the same developer, I am slightly concerned.

According to wiki, they have 153 employees, and so I doubt that there are completely differnet people making the games, I am sure there is some overlap in the teams. It is not like Ubi Montreal, where the people who made the Lost game have absolutely nothing to do with those who made Assassin's Creed, there will be an overlap, and when they recently made a poor game, I am slightly concerned about what they are going to produce
