Forums - Nintendo - Which of these Wii RPGs will be the best?

Which of these RPGs will likely have the most quality and why?

 

Muramasa: The Demon Blade

Arc Rise Fantasia

Tales of Graces

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers

Kizuna

Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga

 



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

I would say that it is very hard to tell right now. This is how I'm going to put it though, and these could change depending on how much information we get.

Tales of Graces could turn out the best, but there are some pretty bad tales games and the series isn't consistent. I would say it looks very promising, and could turn out the best tales of game yet. I also say this one has the most potential.

Muramasa has a will certainly be a good game. It's predecessors were both good games, so I think it is safe to say no matter what it will be good. How good depends though, and some of the others could surpass it.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers also comes from a series that has been known for good games. Not only did they get this praise, but they got it with a low budget. The Crystal Bearers doesn't seem to be limited in budget as have its predecessors have. Whether it is better than tales of graces depends, but I think it has a great chance.

Kizuna is probably the one we have the least info on. I'm not going to comment on it because of that.

Arc Rise Fantasia appeals to me a lot because of the Turn Based battles. The thing is, the game looks very generic story wise. It has the most to prove imo, but it should turn out a good game.

Valhalla Knights will no doubt be the worst out of all of these, but it still could turn out a good game. The previous games in the series seem to have turned out average according to reviews, but from other posters online, and some friends I actually heard some praise. It looks pretty fun, but I have my doubts.

Where is Monster Hunter 3?

It's going to be a tie for me between Crystal Bearers and Tales of Graces.

I would take a guess that Muramasa has the best chance of breaking into the 9's in meta with its uniqueness and quality.

If Muramasa fails somehow then I would bet on FFCC

It's between Muramasa and ToG

Crystal Bearers-I can't trust Square. Ever.
Arc Rise-Looks to generic
Kizuna-Will be merciless be compared with SotC
VK-No idea

 I've never played a MH game but I think most people would consider it an action-adventure.
