I loved old Final Fantasy games, lots of them. I loved the first two, I loved 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, and so on. And I don't like Lost Odyssey all that much. And besides, what does it matter if the reviews are western or if the game is Japanese? A review is a review regardless. It's not like western reviewers are incredibly biased if Japanese games like Resident Evil 4 and Super Mario Galaxy are some of the best reviewed games of all time. So stop making up these BS excuses. You create these hypotheticals of Lost Odyssey being a PS3 exclusive and receiving a ton of praise, but it didn't happen. It never happened, so creating a hypothetical is pointless. The only thing is serves to do is to create another poor argument from you on how anyone who disagrees with it being the best Japanese RPG of this generation must be ruined by system bias. I have all the consoles this generation, with the 360 being my favorite, and I still don't think Lost Odyssey is anywhere close to being the best JRPG. And I get a lot of crap for hating on the game, so let it be known that I'm not hating on it here. I'm just stating the truth. It's not the best JRPG this gen. Tales of Vesperia and several handheld titles beat it handily. It's a decent RPG with some strengths, but you're overrating it highly and you know it. And Lost Odyssey is not Final Fantasy, and you know it. Let these two series stay separate. While you're at it, cut the BS and learn to accept that other people may have different opinions than you for legitimate reasons. |
Is it just me, or do the bolded part and the underlined part contradict each other..? I agree that neoraf may be going overboard with defending the game, but how can you definitively say that Lost Odyssey is not the best JRPG this gen and then go on to scold him for ignoring the opinions of others?
