Hope this doesn't play as shallow and repetitive as Odin Sphere!

Post by: Don Flamenco on October 02, 2008, 12:15:25 PM: Looks like the best thing ever.

but Odin Sphere--NEVAR FORGET. I'm waiting on reviews before giving in on day 1. Odin Sphere was so poorly paced in so many different ways.

Why does nobody remember that Grim Grimoire exists?

Post by: Don Flamenco on October 09, 2008, 12:57:57 PM: I'll take shallow, flashy 2D action if it looks this good...see also: Okami.

So is this pretty much a straight action game then? RPG elements would be nice, but no alchemy bullshit please. That shit was insufferable in Odin Sphere. Really brought the game to a screeching halt.

Post by: modkennylaine on October 10, 2008, 01:25:32 PM: As long as it isn't plagued by slowdowns in frame rate, like in Odin Sphere...

I'll end up playing it anyway.

Post by: recursivelyenumerable on October 11, 2008, 01:42:32 AM: which one was the side-scrolling RTS? was that Grim Grimoire? side-scrolling RTS reminds me of King Arthur's World which was great
