This is a Japenese RPG game that is not English dubbed but is translated in English with Japenese voices. It takes a good 20+ hours or more to really understand this game If you are looking for a RPG to play. give it a try. The game has some flaws but there is a lot of fun to be had here.

Pros:
-Story that shows a LOT of characters and their personalities develop.

-Lots of customization for your characters and improves more as you progress in the story.

-VERY long game. Easily 100+ hours on a single playthrough.

Cons:

-Tough game to learn at first because of poor tutorial.
-Too much fan service...Some people like or dislike it.

This game its pretty good but you will spend more time reading subtitles because its not on English and watching cut scenes yup just like mgs 4 almost all cut scenes are characters moving their mouth n eyes n that's all the battle system is pretty good if your a rpg fan u should check this one out just don't expect any wow moments in here.

Graphics are nice in conversations, the rest I've seen in PS1 and PS2 games. However watching one girl's boobs try to slap her in the face every time she nodded was more ridiculous than sexy.

The completely new battle system feels exceptionally random, while the game actively refuses you the tools required to learn the new mechanics without being butchered at the drop of a hat. Unless you pay for the weapon packs they have available.

The English translations are FAR inferior to the game's two predecessors. This holds especially true when the game is trying to explain it's new skill system... The explanation was butchered so badly I was wishing it had a Japanese voice-over so I could get a friend to translate it PROPERLY.

I count myself as a fairly critical person, but try not to be overly negative... In this case, however, I found very little to enjoy. If they wanted to make a dating sim, why bother with the whole epic RPG backdrop??

I REALLY wanted to like this game since it looked promising (Like a blend of FFVII & Star Ocean IV) however it is SO SLOW in the beginning and the cut scenes are really only a disruption to the flow of the game. Having to read subtitles is one thing but the simple picture of a character with a slightly moving mouth just doesn't do it for me.

I could handle that if they kept them short and sparse, however you are constantly interrupted by them and I just wound up skipping them entirely and just not really knowing what is going on in the storyline. If you have several hundred hours to spend and the patience of G-a-n-d-h-i [What the !#$% GameFly's language filter won't let me use his name!!!] then you may be able to get through this game...

I am a huge RPG player and fan. But this one is very....very different. The turned based fighting is cool but thats about the only good part bout this game. Its in japanese with english subtitles and its pretty much ps2 graphics and no cinimatics. Very dissapointed with this game. I say its a 3/10

This game starts out with a lot of promise. Then all of a sudden you start the actual gameplay and it goes straight down hill. This game is not even worth your time.
