Not surprised. The first one was horrible. Level-5 = most overrated JRPG developer.

The WKC franchise is the only bad one from Level 5. It happens to every developers.

I disagree. Rogue Galaxy was bad as well, imo. Bland characters, random events thrown together to make it seem like a story, ridiculous difficulty spikes and drops, etc.

Yeah I agree, rogue Galaxy wasn't that good either.

I like you also see Level 5 as one of the most overrated companies, especially this gen, thank goodness for the Layton games which are great!

They are lucky WKC1/2 are PS3 exclusives otherwise neither game would get 1/4th of the attention they get.

Well I like you too ^.^

Lol, I always thought Layton was done by Capcom.

It's kind of a shame for though. WKC looked promising when they first showed it, and the battle system had a lot of potential. But eh, what can you do?

tehehe

Phoenix Wright is done by Capcom (and I like it more than Layton personally).

Can't wait for the wright vs layton game!!!!

I liked Rogue Galaxy a lot. It has good sound, combat system and storyline. What can you complain of? White Knight Chronicles does not have good combat system which a RPG games should have.



Interesting. So they say it's better than the first, just that it's not enough to justify a sequel. Interesting.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

I still gonna buy it.

I love the first one. Especially the multiplayer part.



Honestly I had plenty of fun with WKC 1, I honestly don't know where all the hate comes from. I only had 2 gripes with the game:
1. English dubs. If they had left the japanese ones I would have been happy but the : "I don't think it wants a belly rub" along with "I just busted your ass", ruined my hopes of decent english dubbing.
2. The ring keeping battles fairly slow.
I enjoyed the multiplayer aspect of the game as well, and I have clocked in about 80 hours. To me in a JRPG nowadays if you clock in over 30 hours, it is worth the investment in my book.



Make games, not war (that goes for ridiculous fanboys)

I may be the next Maelstorm or not, you be the judge http://videogamesgrow.blogspot.com/  hopefully I can be more of an asset than a fanboy to VGC hehe.

As expected.



EG is shit for jrpg reviews anyway.
Anyone remember 2/10 for Neptune because of sexual themes ?
