Comes out this week. RPG Supposed to have Tales of- type battles and probably some dating sim elements..

Anybody getting this?
I pre-ordered it for the soundtrack, not so much for the cell phone voices.

I'm sure that whatever this is, it's a completely stupid game that only you would enjoy.

Played the first hour of it. Story is so so.. Voice acting is ok for main character and not so great for others.

Battle system is action based, but lacks decent "feel" It's like you're always wiffing at the air.

Dungeons are nice and long, although I don't really like how they handled the overworld with a map like Lunar.

It turns out STK's uninformed opinion is completely correct on this one.

Die Hard Gamefan gave it a terrible rating, and I agree with them.

Game is 9-12 hours long. Tons of loading. Dungeons have lots of back tracking, encounter rate is extremely high, story and characters are cliche, battle system is a watered down Tales of and Star Ocean 2.

Avoid at all costs. This has me worried about Record of Agahest War for 360.

When I'm done with it, straight to ebay it goes. I'm not selling it here because I'm sure no one will buy it anyway.

I think I'm going to be more selective of RPGs I play. I avoided Sands of Destruction, which seems like a good idea. I should have done that with this game too.
