Don't you think SE is doing a poor job promoting Last Remnant?

Well, it is a big game that is going to be released for the 360, PS3 and the PC, but I do not hear much about it. I think White Knight Chronicle (PS3) is highly anticipated by more PS3 owners than Last Remnant.

You,FG have said exactly what I've been trying to say for weeks. SE is doing a mediocre job to promote Last Remnant. There are no doubts on that. For a Japanese game that doesn't carry the name of Final Fantasy,Zelda or Mario releasing in the middle of the Western gaming season Last Remnant hardly begs any kind of attention for a normal non-JRPG gamer.

And isn't creating a larger fanbase in the West one of the MAIN reasons behind why Last Remnant was released earlier than the PS3 version? It was clear long back that SE wants to expand their "sphere of influence" in the West more...but the question is that do they have enough experience to promote a new franchise on their own in the promotion-heavy West? Final Fantasy was promoted by SCEA, Kingdom Hearts was promoted by Disney so Last Remnant is very well SE's first major challenge in terms of launching their own new franchise.

When you look at exactly how many people have Last Remnant on their wish-lists (the non-JRPG gamers) then you'll see the outcome of poor promotion on SE's part.

SE is doing a ridiculously poor job-I completely forgot about the game until SE's little web things started appearing on GS---which I never see anywhere else O.O

I really don't know. I rarely see advertisements for video games, and I've seen a few for Last Remnant already.
