Why o why did he keep saying it was a SE RPG?
SE only published it, they didn't develop it.

Bleh. Watched the video review, and only one of the complaints really struck me as one that may be a problem to me: that the slowdown can make parrying more difficult does sound annoying. If the 50+ sidequests are also as lame as they're made out to be, then boo. Aside from that though, I feel good to go. Still want some new reviews, but I'm already salivating

I just looked at this game for the first time.
They chain the fucking moon in this game. The fucking moon! I don't need to know anymore.
Day One.
If I can get through the 'sidequests' in Crisis Core I think I'll be alright in here.
I couldn't stand the slowdown in LO though so I'll struggle through that!
Why would you even try to use RDs when there's a bunch of enemies coming from all sides?
Honestly I watched the vid review, and it made me even more excited for it. I find it hilarious how he keeps spamming the same moves over and over and over and over. None of his combos go past the 10 hits mark... Well one did, and it was because the AI kept the combo alive lolz

in motion SO4 looks great as well though...check the trailer...I think its fair to say it looks a good deal better than IU graphically....infact, despite the setting, the characters etc look very similar, I would almost say this game looks like a prototype before SO4 release

I wonder if its a matter of teams that were assigned to each game or something? I'm not sure how tri-Ace is broken up internally (if at all).
Did he really complain about navigating menus to equip characters in an RPG? I mean really, can't be worse and it doesn't look as bad as ME interface at least.
Also not a single mention of IC in the game, nothing not even in the written review. that's just weird.

Yeah that IGN review seemed poorly written. I never like it when a reviewer states "poor character designs" as fact. Like, what the fuck do you know about character design, you know.
From the concept and screens, this is some of the better design work Ive seen in a long time.

Well, what the fuck do you know about character design? It does work both ways, after all. :lolRaging Spaniard said:
Personally, I'm split between the two. Some characters (Aya, Michelle, Edward, etc) look really good. Others (the twins, that dagger using kid, etc) ...not so much.

Well I know it got a pretty good rate at IGN (not the same guy, anyway...), and figured it out that he liked it, but SO3 it's pretty below in my ranking, saying this game is worst, is pretty heavy to me.... :lol
Anyway, watching the video review, even the compliments, this games looks pretty fun to me, and not "mediocre" by any means...

The IGN video review was brutal compared to the text, and the video shows how bad the frame rate can get, but I still am really excited for this game.
I watched the video review, and I'm really not sure what the problems he's alledging come from, aside from the framerate issues and crappy side quests. He could be right that the action is simplistic and/or confusing, but he doesn't do a good job of painting that picture. He complains that the game is short and that there are too many characters and systems for such a short game, but at the same time he proclaims at the start that he's a big SO3 fan, while never mentioning VP2. I have to wonder if the reviewer enjoyed VP2, because that would put things in better perspective. I enjoyed VP2 way more than SO3, and in comparison to SO3, VP2 is definitely a shorter RPG with many more systems and characters. IU seems to follow a lot in the VP trend as opposed to SO, so I wonder if it was just a matter of what he was expecting from the game versus what the game actually was...

yeah, another thing about the length of the game....since when the fuck is being a 20-25 hour RPG such a bad thing?
I sure as hell don't have 50-60 hours in my schedule for every jRPG that comes out

I preordered this today.. when I bought vesperia, god help me if it sucks
duckroll said:Wrong thread? Here we talk about IU, not some game in another genre that has broken netcode and crash bugs.
*kicks rock* ; ; it'll be fixed...
Seriously though, I wish Gamestop would get in some strategy guides so I could at least flip through and check out a few of the minor enemies/weaponry. Still in my decision making phase for last 360 RPG purchase of 2008...unless Last Remnant comes out of no where and blows people away.
