Radiata Stories.

[kuro]

Seriously, now I can hold off on this for a while, and work on beating this stockpile of games I've amassed.

I'm interested, but I have to admit the generic art design has put me off some.

The gameespot review I read actually describes this game as off the wall silliness and humorous dialog. I did NOT get that impression with the Japanese trailers. I think that could work nicely, actually.

Well, 1UP finally reviewed the game, and all the little innovations Square mentionned to us as in the real-time clock and battle system are less charming than planned and more tedious. Oh well, too bad.

Am I the only one relieved that this is nothing short of mediocre? The holiday season is always the best time to see games do "just ok".

Hmmm, I might wait for this one to hit the bargin bin. Thanks for the review!

Nothing short of mediocre? That's what you got from that review? Strange, that review is actually what sold me on this game.

From 1up.com-

"Obviously, the story is not, in short, what makes the game interesting. Its strength is in the world built by the developers -- a land of simple, cartoonish beauty where people live their day-to-day lives."



Heart... Doesn't seem like it's mediocre, just slow-paced and not too serious. I loved following the people about in Mask of Majora and this seems like the same type of thing. i like the not too serious part too.


Waiting for Friday's pay check will be painful.

I was expecting Radiata to get much higher praises than this, so the fact that it didn't makes me happy, because now I can play/finish other things first. It's not the fact that it got a 7 that turned me off, but from what I read in the review, I'm not enticed enough to go out and buy it right away. I know you're really looking forward to the game, so you'd be more inclined to get it right away.

Anyone picking this up? Traded in some games today and reserved mine in full, I think this looks like a lot of fun. My taste in RPGs has always leaned toward the more light-hearted, charming JRPGs, and it's been a long time since I've really sat down and enjoyed one, so this should be right up my alley.

I'm getting it for those same reasons. I'll split my time between this and Grandia III.

Give Tales of Symphonia a try.

Give Tales of Symphonia a try.

Or Atelier Iris. It's like the happiest RPG ever!
