If you read the review, it clarifies what it meant by "random encounters". "...and while enemies are visible on the field, they charge instantly once spotting you. Avoiding them is next to impossible, even after upgrading Oliver's speed." Not quite random encounters, but I must say this system is barely an improvement as it still leads to many forced skirmishes. I myself not too happy with a handful of the design choices in Ni No Kuni. However, like the very best JRPGs, it makes up for annoyances through the quality and uniqueness of its presentation. There's nothing else quite like it, and I think that's awesome. My post from the first page of this thread.   "The reviewer pretty much says that while the enemies are present on the screen they tend to see you instantly and move so fast that it is pretty much impossible to avoid them, even after upgrading Oliver's speed, so basically they are like random encounters."

What? Am I expected to read the thread or something? ;)

This is why IGN gave it a 9.4/10  (watch in HD)

Oh yeah!

Good lord. O.O

Ok hype train, you win.

The game looks amazing, just like Vesperia.

Sorry if this is the wrong thread. I had the game pre-ordered.

I canceled it today...





...because Namco-Bandai re-stocked the "Wizard Edition" and I dropped $100 on this game, hereby making it the most I have ever spent on any game ever. Game, book, doll, CD, art, coin, DLC, all shall be mine in a week!

Yeah, I am hyped for this.

Game pre-ordered today.

I also cancelled my pre order.....because I'm going to buy this digitally. Just not sure if it will be day one or not. I have so many games I need to play.
