    This is garbage. Probably the least fun and most mechanically awkward game I have ever played. Avoid at all costs.

    I am interested in the art and style of the game. However, there are hundreds of forums discussing the issues of this game freezing frequently during game play. I purchased this game and soon discovered my model of PS3 (first generation 60GB) is affected. I cannot in good faith give this game a good rating if SEGA cannot launch a game that plays without freezing. After 2 years a patch hasI am interested in the art and style of the game.

    it's not a game, it's a huge pile of **** People behind this game should not work in game industry: they really suck at it. Gameplay is poor and repetitive. Graphics are hideous. Story doesnt exist. It's one of the lamest Jrpg i've nerver played.

    Battle is a show spectacle first time you see it, but confusing mechanics and repetitive gameplay let it all down

    A hugely interesting game, as fascinating as it is frequently frustrating, as engaging as it is eccentric and, for those who are hooked by its quirky charms, it will provide one of the most inspired approaches to the JRPG seen in a decade.

    Resonance of Fate may appeal to the JRPG connoisseur who is looking for an interesting and challenging new take on combat. Others most likely will be thrown off by the silliness, steep learning curve, required grinding, and other pains – especially when there are so many recent well-rounded RPGs out there.

    Resonance of Fate is one of the best JRPG of these last months. Featuring a deep combat system and a huge load of interesting ideas, this game is a true gem for the RPG fans. The main story has a diesel acceleration, but after few hours everything looks great.
