@Carl - As far as comparing game quality goes, Metacritic and gamerankings mean absolutley nothing. This is true with practically every game, but even moreso with JRPGs.
I'm going to have to agree with neoraf here and say that the critics dropped the ball on this one...HARD. Lost Oddysey has the production values and gameplay of a AAA game.
I am a person who favors the PS3, but Lost Oddyssey is. Not only the best JRPG, but possibly the best rpg of this gen so far. |
A lot of critics felt that it was dated in a lot of aspects. I personally loved the Battle system and ring creation. However the level cap at each dugeon and high random encounter rate, I could have done without. On a technical side, the game is beautiful but it struggles with its framerate way too often to be considered AAA. Also the inclusion of Cooke and Mack could have been left out. I understand they had to bring out a softer side of Kaim, but honestly they were very annoying.

I don't really want to insert myself further into this argument, but I have to say that Lost Odyssey probably had one of the lowest enemy encounter rates out of any JRPG that uses random encounters that I've ever played...

When compared to past JRPGs then yeah. But to the ones of this gen it does

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.
Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
