I'm surprised with the mixed reaction at the prospect of it being Level-5.
In just a few short years, they've released Dark Cloud 1 & 2, DQ VIII, Professor Layton, Jeanne D'Arc as well as others. On the way we have DQ IX, WKC, and two other games that show promise. Ni No Kuni, being developed alongside Studio Ghibli is nothing to balk at and Ushiro for the PSP seems pretty interesting too. Certainly, I don't think they're average.
I can't think of another RPG developer who have had this many good games in a relatively short amount of time, with the exception of Square, of course.
True, their games need a bit of work in the narrative. But hopefully that will be something that comes with expansion and/or collaborations (e.g. Studio Ghibli).
On topic: I don't think anything will even come of this, but as others have said already, it's fun to speculate. |
Nippon Ichi and Atlus both release pretty good games in the amount of time it took between Dark Cloud 1 and 2 to present day but they also have some real bad games in there as well...x.o I think you have a point there.
I also agree that it's fun to speculate.

True. I love all three of those devlopers, but I'd have to give the edge to Level-5 here. They have diversity that matches or perhaps even surpasses Atlus' offerings, and haven't been around as long as NIS.
Which developer's games you'd prefer will no doubt differ depending on who'd you would ask, but I must say that I, too, am pleased with all three of their works over the past 7-8 years.
