Quote from: Josquius on April 18, 2013, 07:30:27 PMEternal Sonata on the PS3. Was told it was a good RPG and I really felt like an old school RPG. It is...bizzare. Set in Chopin's head during his dying moments. No really. The classical music fanboyism you get in japan is strange stuff. Fairly fun so far though the plot seems pretty uninspiring- being told from the get go that anything you do will be meaningless as nothing is real....yeah.

King of Dragon Pass on the PC. Quite fun for a while but then suddenly foot shortages became regular and impossible to fix, my people starved. Which was a big anti-climax. Reading guides apparently you have to invest heavily into sacrificing to crops related gods. Shame I have to start again, was enjoying it.

I note Cities in Motion 2 was released recently. Don't have it yet though must investigate!
I got 3 quarters throuhg Eternal Sonata and then the damn game got corrupted.  Like something at that point on the disc just stopped. Ienjoyed it. Was weird. King of Dragon Pass was similar experience to yours.



What a belated reply :lol:
Makes me feel old.
I remember playing that.

Makes me think.
I wonder if I've grown out of JRPGs.
Used to love them. A favourite genre.

Not too long ago I finally got around to going through Eiyuden Chronicle. The only thing I ever kick started. From the maker of suikoden.
It was serviceable but.... Not brilliant. Just.... OK.

Recently started on Ni no kuni. A series that has passed me by largely though which is widely loved.
It's very pretty.... But just doesn't grip. Me. So very... Slow and simple.
Is it that it's too much of a game for little kids? But apparently no. Adults like it too.
But I'm not seeing it.

I did love Persona 5 a few years ago though. So... Hmm...
