I agree this game could be the role playing game of this year. I would say if you haven't picked this game up, or have no intention to your missing something amazing. The experience is both fresh, and deeply moving. The story is rich, the dialog isn't in the least over or under done, and the graphics are glorious. Even the combat system is fast paced, and building your characters is a real treat to manage.

I hope this game turns into the sleeper hit that it deserves to be. I have no clue what the problem with some of the reviewers were. There aren't any real technical issues in the game. There are no tedious design elements, and if your not a big fan of turn based combat this is probably the most accessible that your going to find, but it also manages to maintain real tension. Which makes every battle entertaining. Hell even the menial side missions are rewarding and diverse.

I doubted that the reviewers indeed had a hate complex towards this genre, but having played it. Well its almost like they contrived reasons to dislike it. Your telling me three second load times are intrusive? Excuse me I have played other games on my 360, and yeah Lost Odyssey is the least culpable. The combat isn't even repetitive unlike some other role playing games I can name. So exactly what was there problem beyond really disliking turn based role playing games.

I really do not get it, but then again I think I have found a good bench mark this generation for who will do the better reviewing job for me. Anyone who gave this game below a eight just isn't worth reading in the future.
