Grandia Xtreme has the best combat in the series, but everything else is a piece of $hit.

Pretty much.

Grandia 2 still has the best story, characters, and soundtrack. 

Grandia 1 is second for me.

 

I hope SE and GungHo. can reach some arrangement for Game Arts to create Grandia 4, on the PS4/nextbox. If my Drakengard dream is coming true why not this one?

Well, Grandia 3 was also kind of bad.   Not "grandia Xtreme bad" but still, Grandia 1 and 2 are 100x better.   Hopefully, if they manage to make a Grandia 4, they will take quotes from Grandia 1-2 and ignore the other games completely.

I think Grandia 3 is worse than Xtreme, although I do like the addition of air combos and world map travel. It will be its contribution to the series. The story was just not that interesting and it was super corny. The soundtrack in Xtreme was also way better, especially the battle theme. 

 

My favorite Grandia character will always be Lutina from Xtreme. Her voice, her moves, are all amazing.
