Already have it pre-ordered.

It is a proper full release from Square-Enix, not some poor indie title like Mead and Zeus imply.

Try the demo, it has the potential to go up against the big leagues for GOTY.

Most likely. Dunno when, since I doubt I'll go grab it at launch, but I expect to get it at some point unless it ends up sucking.

I'm presuming that it's going to comfortably break the 40-hour mark that JRPG's usually have no trouble hitting. The idea that that's not worth $60 is pretty absurd.

The art style with contrasted pixel art and realistic backgrounds is what I've been saying Super Mario Bros should try out for years. This is the first game I've seen with my art concept. That being said, RPGs bore me, so I won't be getting it.

Are you trying to suggest that Square Enix makes good games nowadays?

Cause Id personally put my bets on most indie titles in comparison

No, I just know that there are plenty of nostalgia centric jrpgs available nowadays.

This game doesnt look like it will hold a candle to many of those from what I have seen, and none of them costed anywhere near $60

Honestly, yeah. Coupled with turn based combat I just find it tiresome and repetitive. Simpler RPGs like Pokemon and Paper Mario have been enjoyable to me. Action RPGs like Skyrim are also good.

Bravely Default was quite solid, if you ignore the latter half of the story. As much as Squenix likes to think nobody wants turn-based RPG's anymore, they are still pretty good at them.

From what I've played, it's a potential dark horse GOTY candidate, so hell to the yes.

The visual style brings to my mind a funky conglomeration of Final Fantasy VI and Xenogears, so it's already captured my heart anyway.

Nope. Outside of Pokmon (and I'm even starting to get burnt out on that series) and the two Knights of the Old Republic games, I can't stand RPGs with turn-based combat.

Because i rarely play games nowadays so by the time id actually get around to it the price would have dropped.

Hell i bought Shadow of the Colossus on the ps4 a month back and its 2 cheaper now and ive yet to open it.

and what makes you say that?

the main story is stated to be around 40-50 hours long and all the side content included results in a playtime of 80-100 hours

if it's because of the graphics need i remind you FF13 looked great but gameplay wise was horrible

They get to charge $60 because its a full length rpg with a lot of time and effort put into it
Its 50-60 hours for the main story, 80-100 if all the sidequests are done

I watched some videos about the game and like the graphics and the style of RPG sounds interesting. I'll probably pick this up along with Xenoblade Chronicles 2 at some point once a third game comes out for the Switch that justifies picking it up for.

As for it being $40 versus $60. Though it doesn't make sense, I do wonder if it being a "console" game versus a "handheld" game is why it has the typical console game price instead of handheld price. I spent a few hundreds of hours on Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on the 3DS and over a hundred hours combined on the Bravely Default and Bravely Second so I personally do not think potential playtime hours is truly a factor. Disgaea on the DS was about $40 on release and I think came with additional content compared to the PS2 version which for the life of me cannot recall the price of at release.
