| inverted3reality said: Star Ocean 4 is probably not worth a buy if you are a really big jRPG fan, it's fairly bad overall, with some of the most painful dialogue and atrocious story/character development I've ever seen in a jRPG. That being said, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, and Tales of Vesperia are worth getting. The rest are not very good at all. |
Except SO4 had a FANTASTIC battle system. I had a lot of fun playing that game.
OT, in order of best to worst of the ones I've played:
LO (this game is a must)
TOV - excellent game
SO4 - I agree some of the story is rather corny and melodramatic but the combat is outstanding
Eternal Sonata - I played this a while ago and didn't finish but it was enjoyable
Last Remnant - finished this one....some technical issues mar the game but the combat is very unique and interesting once you get the hang of it
================
The above games I enjoyed, the next 2 I didn't get very far in but I'll probably give them another chance:
UI - This one has potential but for some reason I lost interest pretty early on....actually, I remember, I got a boss fight and died and then realized I had to go back an hour to get back to the boss fight and really didn't like it enough to replay that much....it's been a while now so I'll give it another try
Blue Dragon - I'll give this one a second chance but I really didn't have much fun in the few hours I played and I hated the characters.
