Star Ocean 5 is a less than 20 hour jrpg MORE proof, Amazon japan users complaining

To me this tells me a ~100k opening in Japan is actually good enough rather than 200k+.

SE are no fools and they made a good call. SO4 did big damage to the series. They were smart to make it shorter and cheaper. Keeps the series viable. Good decision.
