Never trust official reviews period.

I don't trust any reviews at all, some are biased too.



I haven't gave a crap about reviews in years. I'll be grabbing this later in the year after I finish SO 4 and FFXIII.

After reading the reviews of FF XIII and playing it myself, the reviews are not to be trusted and most are bullcrap reasons so when it comes to JRPGs, I'm gonna at least try it out myself before making any judgements.



A french website gave it a 8.5 http://www.jeuxvideo.com/articles/0001/00012515-resonance-of-fate-test.htm

I don't know why, but Western reviewers tend to hate Japanese oriental games this generation, idk.

I mean, they gave Blazblue a low score also but it was a really good fighting game.

What are you talking about man? BlazBlue is the best reviewed fighting game this gen next to Street Fighter 4!



they gave FF13 a 9.25 in comparison

but seriously I am buying it........JRPG's haven't been treated fairly at all by reviewers this gen.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

i usualy go for user reviews on gamespot myself and this game is quite highly viewed so far by players and aside from that its just one review and yes jrpgs have been judged harshly this gen



Yeah, F'ck the critics!



Like most are saying, JRPGs have been woefully underrated this gen. Lost Odyssey is one of my favorite JRPGs ever, it's highly regarded as a great game amongst most JRPG fans that I know yet it only has a 78 on Metacritic.

I think most reviewers only want one type of RPG to exist: the WRPG and anything that's not that is bad by default.
