    Okay. I'm going to do what apparently no one else will do. Tell you that this game sucks. Before we begin, yes, I'm a huge RPG fan. I've played everything from Fallout 3 to Xenoblade to Skyrim to Sleeping Dogs to... you get the picture. I'll play nearly any of them I can get my hands on. However, I couldn't stand this game. The controls were sh*t, the attacks had animations that were soOkay. I'm going to do what apparently no one else will do. Tell you that this game sucks. Before we begin, yes, I'm a huge RPG fan. I've played everything from Fallout 3 to Xenoblade to Skyrim to Sleeping Dogs to... you get the picture. I'll play nearly any of them I can get my hands on. However, I couldn't stand this game. The controls were sh*t, the attacks had animations that were so clunky and long half of the time you would get hit anyway, so it was more luck than strategy, not to mention that every attack moved you forward, which is fine, and maybe even useful for the big enemies... but when you're fighting the annoying little flying insects (why am I even fighting friggin insects?) you'll miss 4 out of 5 times. To be honest, I couldn't play this game for more than... I don't know, between an hour and two hours. I really wanted to like this game too, but I just couldn't. I didn't try online mode, but I'd imagine the controls and etc. would be exactly the same. If you want to play something kind of similar, give Xenoblade a try, it's nowhere near as annoying. If you liked it, first tell me what I was missing, so that I can give it another shot, though I doubt it gets better further in or anything like that. Then try out Xenoblade, it's so much better.… Expand

    This is one of those games that I am sad I spent money on. After playing Skyward Sword and Okami on the Wii, this game feels totally underwhelming. The controlls are horrible, the menu system is awful, the gameplay is slow, the design is lackluster, the texts are barely legible with the Wii's low resolution - it's just not fun.

    Giving this game a 10 out of 10 is ridiculous. Now, I only    This is one of those games that I am sad I spent money on.

    Giving this game a 10 out of 10 is ridiculous. Now, I only rated this game 0 out of ten to help bring down the overall score (not that I expect it will actually do anything). Personally, I rate it 5 out of 10, not recommended.    … Expand

    This game is garbage. The playability is terrible, everything takes too long, every animation is excessively long which makes it a pain in the ass every time you have to heal or use an item. I mean, the animations are so long they appear to me to be a sick developer`s joke. Or maybe they thought "how do we stretch the game play time to the max without adding more content? just make everyThis game is garbage. The playability is terrible, everything takes too long, every animation is excessively long which makes it a pain in the ass every time you have to heal or use an item. I mean, the animations are so long they appear to me to be a sick developer`s joke. Or maybe they thought "how do we stretch the game play time to the max without adding more content? just make every animation several seconds long and make the entire game in slow motion!!". Gathering items takes too long and you need too many of them to do anything useful. The playability in the water is a joke, while the monsters you have to slay in the water move like lightning. The monsters are cool and all, but once you hurt them they start running away and you have to chase after monsters for way too long to kill them, because they heal themselves and hide. And excessively so, by the time they are limping do not be fooled, they have probably about 80% of their health and will move around the map like 10 times before dying. This game quickly becomes a chore and it brings a lot more pain and frustration to the player than happiness and satisfaction. Games are supposed to be a fun escape, this game is like trying to cut a tree down with nothing but a butterknife. It`s excessively difficult and for no good reason. I`m glad i only played this on an emulator and didn`t spend a penny on it. As soon as I realized this game was giving me a lot more stress and frustration than if I hadn`t been playing it, i deleted the game and cleaned my recycle bin. I am now very bitter thinking about the hours i threw away playing this crap game. I should really start doing more productive things in my free time.… Expand

    A superb online mode and practically infinite game time make us cheer with joy for this engaging monster-collecting adventure.

    A merciless, intimidatingly featured, almost grotesquely involved role-playing timesink, perched balefully atop a platform whose users take to higher difficulty settings about as readily as pigeons take to cactus plants.

    Adds brains to action fans' brawn, and brawn to obsessive collectors' brains. Ignore the first few clunky hours, and get ready to enjoy the next 300.
