Everything prepared for farming and harvesting items, I ain't doing this shit.
Last boss I faced forced me to play as a new party member I just got 1 hour before. Each swing dealt 48 damage and the boss had 10800 HP. If I died I had to do the boss previous to retry. This game is is a button masher with so much forced grinding. Don't waste your time
Junto a Dragon Quest VIII, el mejor JRPG de su generación. Adoro Rogue Galaxy y no me canso de rejugarlo con el pasar de los años. Banda sonora increíble, personajes carismáticos, una trama que te mantiene enganchado desde el principio y un sistema de combate de acción que funciona a las mil maravillas.
Un gran jrpg da giocare assolutamente. Sembra stupido all'inizio poi la storia riserva svariati twist.
I had way more fun with this game than I thought I would going in. The weapon leveling/combining system absolutely scratched an itch for me, and helped make the awfully long dungeons more bearable with something to grind towards. The difficulty spikes each new area could get really annoying, as did the enemies that required breaking barriers or jumping to inflict damage, but once you started grinding high enough level weapons and unlocking more powerful screen-wiping abilities it became negligible. The aforementioned terrible dungeon design and enemy difficulty spikes were really my only gripes with this game. Played with HD textures, so it looked absolutely stunning. The voice acting was good to great, the weapon and item systems were fun, and there were honestly so many different mechanics to sink your teeth into that I avoided two of them entirely and still beat the game no problem. Story was a little cliched, but also still really fun and I enjoyed running around the galaxy with these characters. Looks like there's some postgame content, so I'm sure I'll jump back into this one again at some point. Highly recommend giving it a try!

This is the worst game I have ever played to completion, I think it looks pretty nice, that's it, it has no other positive attributes. The combat it broken, I just used AOE spells which would lock the characters into an animation and kill the enemies before they could move, then I did that like five thousand more times. The characters are all terrible; why did this dinosaur-looking guy join the party? he was a villain a few minutes ago, he has no arc in the game, it doesn't have time for that, instead here's more terrible dungeons to grind. Also, what was the deal with that girl that narced on us? If she's a famous idol why is she working at a ticket desk? Was she friends with the robot-boy? Nothing is ever explained! The story barely makes sense, after a full game, the female character is presented with the opportunity become a princess (or something I can't really remember) but with the caveat that she can never see her friends again, and you know what? She just says "yep, sounds good, goodbye forever protagonist". Though this is kind of undone in the last seconds of the game it is a perfect, completely unsatisfying piece of shit as the characters sail off into a sequel that will never happen.
Un po' un parto, ma ho apprezzato davvero la storia che di per sé è banale quanto meno diciamo nel suo intero ma carina tutto sommato in alcuni frangenti (la questione di deego ma anche la vicenda di Steeve e lo scienziato). Il forte però rimane il gameplay, la grafica e a mio parere anche i design di alcuni mostri da cacciare. Forse il malus sta nella lunghezza, non mi sento di criticare i dungeon che nonostante nella struttura possano risultare similari in verità hanno comunque una estetica differente tra loro quindi non pesa come cosa
Joguei quando criança... Não lembro muito da história mas lembro que era amplo e bonito.
Pretty good. I liked the cutscene direction, the animations, the music.
Unfortunately, it has some of the worst dungeon design I've seen. They are just long.
The action combat is almost great, but the balance makes it just good enough. You end up spamming so many potions because of the ridiculous damage you take. The game knows this and gives away money and puts shops in the dungeons to make sure you're always stocked. I really liked how seamless the transition is from combat to exploration. The enemies just appear and disappear, no battle transition.
Once you get a bit into the game, you can easily break any encounter using aoe spells or buff abilities.
The voice casting is surprisingly great. I loved hearing Steve Blum as Zegram. There are other big names here too like Yuri Lowenthal. Pretty good dub for a game of this time.
I don't regret playing through this game, but it could have been so much better.
