You can turn off audio advice in the options.
I'm enjoying it, I loved the whole intro, running from the robots was cool.
It's very old school, and it has been done to death, but it is still enjoyable. Also, I don't mind Shu. He is pretty cocky, but it seems to work.
My post person decided to not knock on my door the other day. Instead they just left slip saying I could pick the game up from my post office. I go to the post office and they don't have it... I was very angry. But I have it today, and had a good chat with the guy at the post office about the 360. So in the end, a good time was had by all.

The fact that it may have been done to death means nothing to me. I haven't played THAT many RPG's, though I do love them, especially that 'old school' kind. I'm buying too many games of late though, so I think I'll wait till it's cheaper.
It would be good to have a game that isn't a racer or FPS though.

So far, the game is not only disappointing. It's trashy.
The piss poor ugly motion blur and depth of field effects would be great if the main characters where not personality - drained, drones. The old school fighting mechanics seems to pick up directly where final fantasy 1 left off, the storyline is drawn out, poor, badly written, boring, silted, and slow. The characters are more mannequins than developed beings. The flow is off kilt, slowed by the endless looping battles, the battles are poor, even if they are trying to be oldschool. When such great, unique, rich, role playing games, take a completely innovative turn, while maintaining, and improving upon the oldschool console dungeon hack, like persona 3 has, and then this next gen effort comes along, without any of that, and leaves nothing but an empty, creative-less shell. Being a huge fan of all final fantasy games, this is nothing like them, even recent gameboy rpg's had more depth than this heap of steaming animal carcus of a abomination.
0/10 - Destroys the idea that innovation can exist. Devoid of imagination, or script, a husk of a game that should never have been created. I hope the game developers can personally refund me, but that would not refund the endless sinking disappointment of the knowledge that utter evil trash can still be created. The worst game for the xbox 360, or any other platform, and a definite contender for worst game ever made, right next to HARD TRUCKS. Which was so buggy the installer left a virus.
Ps. Ive decided a 0/10 score is giving this too much credit. So i give it my first, MINUS 200,000,000,000 out of 10 score ever.

I'm going to put this game up later this afternoon. I'm worried though. Going by everything I've read... I suspect it's not going to do anything for me. Likely to be an EB rental I guess. =/
Most flaws in role playing games I can put up with. If the story isn't there though... I can't look past that. Without a good story the game is pointless.
Blue Dragon is looking like it's going to be the biggest disappointment of 2007.

WTF??!!! Something tells me you just don't play many RPGs. I've been waiting for an RPG like this for ages. It's not the second coming, but its the best jap RPG to come to the 360.whitespider wrote:So far, the game is not only disappointing. It's trashy.

Well I picked up my copy late this afternoon. I didn't get to play it a great deal, but the initial impressions I had from the game were very much the same as what I had of the demo - quite positive. I'm not able to base that on very much though, of course.
But I'll see where my opinion stands after this weekend once I've given it a good bash.

But why did the japanese like it? I will end up buying it since it's the only japanese rpg out for now on 360.
There needs to be more japanese rpgs on 360 I reckon. Remember how there was none on Xbox? Not a good sign when there is a gap in the library.
Whitespider, is the hate more because it's not fresh or more because it's just old school? One of the things about japanese rpgs is they've all held onto the old school the way people have gotten used to EA games being roster updates but still liking them. Like it's a tradition to not change too much.
Occasionally you might get a jrpg that goes for a different approach like King's field (first person action rpg with freedom) but for the most part they've all felt the same with the difference being the story, characters, setting and maintaining similar themes with each other.
