| Majin-Tenshinhan said: I thought Golden Sun was okay. I saw a lot of potential in it but I felt it didn't get as fulfilled as I had hoped. I have yet to play The Lost Age properly, though, but I will in due time. |
I felt the same way. Frankly, I got tired of it halfway through from the endless dialogue and the forced puzzles. The game had a wicked combat engine, but around 75% of the game was spent doing rather lackluster Zelda-esque puzzles and some of the most mundane text I ever read that made it seem like they were ADDING more to fill time (such as making the characters repeat each others words or go over past information multiple times when you reach a new town).
Can't say I'm psyched for the new Golden Sun. In fact, I'm more interested in the next Lufia DS game coming out, which looks to be doing everything Golden Sun was trying to do (broad branching storyline over multiple characters, fully action based environment with puzzles, fighting the 'gods', etc) but MUCH better.
