Star Ocean 3: Till The End Of Time

Windchampionluc

It's coming out tomorrow (well for those in America). So wh will be getting it? I know I will. And once I take a big chunk of tomorrow out to play it, I will report my findings here.

It's shipped tomorrow, but the vast majority of people won't get it until Wednesday.

I have it preordered-- looking forward to playing it.

I'm probably going to get it; be sure to not post any spoilers without clearly marking them, Windchampionluc.

I have it reserved, and I got the guide in advance.

So far, this game looks incredible, despite a few gameplay mechanics that sort of bother me (like the ability to MP-kill).

MP Kill has got to be the most annoying... thing ever implemented in a game. I also don't like the fact that skills consume HP.

I will most definitely be getting this game, at the first opportunity for me to do so. I may just have to go up to Future Shop during lunch on Wednesday and see if they've got it in. I've been looking forward to the game for nearly a year now. (At least since I learned about it.)

I'm not too familiar with the mechanics involved, but of the games I have played, I would say what I felt is the most annoying thing (okay, things to ever be implemented in a game is the junction and draw systems in Final Fantasy VIII. So much time is wasted drawing spells during battle, and you have to keep track of which enemies possess what spell once you've run out.

If given the choice, I would gladly have skills consume HP than have to deal with the junction and draw systems again. Final Fantasy VIII seems to have a number of things I dislike, but I still like the game nonetheless... maybe not to the degree of other games in the series, but I can still find some enjoyment out of it, and it deserves props for that.

Does anyone know what the Canadian price for Star Ocean might be?

Well I also preordered this game, and just got the reminder call from the store. Although they said it would arrive tomorrow evening, I probably won't pick it up until Wednesday. I've been eager to play this game for a long time, and I have been furiously absorbed in SO2 the past week preparing for this upcoming epic.

I've been waiting for the game since it was first confirmed that they were makeing it. I have it pre-ordered and I plan to get a guide too if I can. Hopefully there will still be some left.

If you ask me, I like the thought of MP kills. I've heard allot of people say that it's the hardest RPG they've ever played. And all I can say is: it's about time. I'm getting so sick of all these no brain, button mashing games out there right now. I can't even remember the last time I played a hard RPG. And with Item Creation, multiple endings, Battle Collections, etc. this game is going to take me a long time to finish.

Oh, and I agree Elc. Draw/Junction system has to be the worst thing ever created in a game. Just plain borng and tedious.

If you want a hard game, play any of the Persona games, or wait for Shin Megami Tensei to come out. The personas are tough, but I've heard that SMT will possibly be the hardest RPG to come to the US from Japan.

Im going to be getting it the day it comes out which is tommorow as I have been waiting for this game since the day that Star Ocean two came out in North America. I have played the Japanese version for a bit and I loved every second of it though I couldnt understand a single word of it since when has that ever been the point of it? It's a truly great game and to say that I am excited about it would certainly be an understatement if there ever was one. You could say that I am holding back my excitement to not seem too much of a tool for this game which i am not no matter what anyone might think. :o

I already have it paid off. have it done for about a month now. I will pick it up after work tommorrow. As for the guide i am going to sell my bad copy of suikoden 3 and 2 of my less desirable dvds (spiderman and musketeer). Game looks good 2 was great after all and so1 was nothing short of spectacular. Now if only Growlanser Generations wpuld get here....

Suikoden 5 didnt make me less of a fan; it restored my faith after the abomination that was suikoden 4.

I'll be getting it. It's just a question of when. It could be as early as tomorrow, it could be as late as months from now.
