Star Ocean 4. Why so underappreciated?

I don't know.... I mean I got this game because I appreciate that they included the Japanese voice, I would virtually get any crap JRPG for this inclusion as a reward to developer who understand their fan but yea... I never did play it. Its still sitting in the shelf right next to a crap load of other RPG I never got time to play.

Meanwhile I've actually finished FFXIII which has one of the most rubbish plot ever.

Maybe it is because my hype was very low for this game and got surprised. I played Star Ocean 3 until the end and did not like it very much. I played Star Ocean 2 but did not have steem to finish it. But with Star Ocean 4 i want to know what is gonna happen. I care about characters and the world. 

I've never been a fan of the series, I've actually enjoyed more WRPG in my history than JRPG since I live in Australia and getting JRPG before this gen has been pretty hard. That said, I enjoy anime so the transition to JRPG was natural and my PS / PS2 days were filled with happiness on the few mainstream JRPG that made it to our humble shore...

But yea, maybe I'll give this a try, right now though I'm busy playing the Witcher on my PC and Atelier Rorona.
