hey i told u in the other thread..i think...wel i know u commented on my other thread but i alrdy bought sonata and tales of vesperia wasnt out in stores yet =_+ australia is so slow
I hated Eternal Sonata. The thing most people say is good about ES is the battle system. Problem is fighting is the ONLY thing you do in this game so that one good element becomes boring very fast. You just fight your way from point A to point B, then you fight your way to point C. There's very little questing, side quests or NPC interaction. You know, the things that make an RPG good. You just start at point A, fight 1000 fights, reach point B, watch a boring cut scene, fight 1000 fights, reach point C, rinse and repeat. Terrible game.

Pros: Awesome battle system, great visuals, cool characters, decent story
Cons: Story is still a little meh, too linear, a tad short
Still a wonderful game though. One of my favs on the 360.

COMPLETELY AGREE, game is well worth playing and 1 of the best JRPG for the xbox360 just wish it wasn't so linear, great game to kick back and "420" as playing
Linear as in there's no real freedom to explore areas. Every area is just one path with a few detours that only lead to an item or dead end. It's really a shame it's so linear because the setting is just gorgeous, so you kind of want to witness the whole world.
The music (if you like classical and chopin) is amazing!
cons
story is very slow and boring
cut scenese are very very very slow and boring.
its a bog standard JRPG which plods along too slowly for my liking. I have no problem with slow paced games as shenmue 1 and 2 are amongnst my fave games EVER but this game is slow for the sake of being slow and the cut scenes really start to annoy after a while.
Hmm. Pros - pretty graphics, engaging battle system. Cons - Annoying characters, insulting story, terrible dungeon design. The length is a pro or con depending on how you view the rest of the game - either it's not enough, or it's mercifully short.
[QUOTE="pocoyo29"] what do u mean by linear?yokofox33
