    Omega Quintet is probably the biggest waste of time in gaming history. Other than the amazing combat system the game is riddled with faults. You will spend countless hours in the beginning of the game reading tutorials, endless tutorials. There is like one cut scene in the entire game, the rest is just box of dialogue and characters moving from side to side, endless, pointless, hours ofOmega Quintet is probably the biggest waste of time in gaming history. Other than the amazing combat system the game is riddled with faults. You will spend countless hours in the beginning of the game reading tutorials, endless tutorials. There is like one cut scene in the entire game, the rest is just box of dialogue and characters moving from side to side, endless, pointless, hours of dialogue. With zero substance. The game forces you to do every side mission or you won't be able to progress and you can very easily miss those missions and have to restart the entire game. The maps are decent size but there are like 8 of them that you constantly have to go back to and unlock new areas. The ending is the worst part of the game. Nothing is resolved at all and the final chapter is crap without one of your main party members. Do not buy this game unless you have 200 hours to waste and want to be bored out of you mind in between awesome combat. This game is boredom personified! I highly recommend not buying this no matter how much you enjoy turn based JRPGs. Expand

    The game is typical J-rpg style liked characters, but the confusing and linear gameplay will make you really annoyed after a while. The game has some leveling up system, which works fine, but it's very grindy, and you will have to spend several hours defeating the same mobs, and fights never get that exciting.

    At this point, it should be obvious that if you're considering purchasing this game, I'd advise you not to. There are so many other, better games you could be playing.

    In fact, I'd say that if that pop idol simulation thing appeals to you, you're better off just grabbing Hyperdimension Neptunia: Producing Perfection for the Vita, indulging your inner J-Pop mogul's every whim there, and forgetting this game even exists. And if it doesn't? Then you may as well have a nap, because that would basically replicate the Omega Quintet experience.

    It's not broken, and at times it threatens to be interesting to more than the already-converted, but it's utterly lacking in the heart and spark that helped other Compile Heart titles lineup transcend their inauspicious beginnings.
