- Thread starter ULTROS!
- Start date
Oh, okay. Well, apparently I got 2 day if that's the $11 option. I don't expect to get it within 2 days of release, though.

Right, I guess it'll just arrive within two days of whenever it's shipped. So I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.
Don't worry, us Euros don't get it until then anyway!

Excellent OT Ultros, nice and simple.
Edit: It looks like some folks want to know if the game is good. Copy-pasting from a GFAQs thread on some sources to read:

Looking good. I need to see Game Informer's issues with it.
I bought it so I could use/read the book, so yeah. I have no interest in collecting.

What's the point of having an unopened artbook and soundtrack?
I'm going to open it without question..

In summary:
- Dialogue is cheesy
- Too many enemies
- Boss battles too cheap
- Save points too limited
- "old-school RPG mechanics"
Impeccable

10/10 for me, then.

I'm okay with these 2.

What jRPG didn't have cheesey writing? That's nothing new.
Huh? Why wouldn't you open it? Unless you plan to scalp it on eBay later or something? Or you collect sealed games?
HiddenWings

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking.

In summary: A good game.
Did they talk about why it was cheesy, was the story okay regardless? I haven't played a jrpg since skies of arcadia on dreamcast, which brings back vmu memories. Anyway, I'm still looking forward to this unless the story is poor.

Pissed I'll never be able to play this demo before the game drops. PSN can't go 10 minutes without getting an error and cancelling the download.

Yeah, definitely opening my copy. I bought it for the amazing hard bound book. Also, I've never bought anything to keep it sealed in a shelf for it's "rare" value.

Yeah, I'm on the hype train regardless. Maybe I should count the fact that I'll have no experience with the game going into it as a blessing.

I'm looking forward to reading impressions about this. Didn't get to play the demo nor do I think I'll get to play it at launch because of ps3 hard drive issues, but this may be a great Summer game purchase for me. I love the Ghibli art!
I could use a little bit of that in my life.

Demo was OK. Will rent.
I really...really like the steelbook, but it's way too much trouble to pre-order the game at EBGames, get the steelbook, and then later return the copy. If I weren't getting the Wizard's Edition I'd already have my copy pre-ordered [for the steelbook], but since I am...ugh!
Why does the Wizard's Edition have to lack a steelbook of any kind?
Sounds like a solid JRPG to me.

Will be my first JRPG in forever, was hyped since it got announced. Is this game supposed to be somewhat challenging?
Also, didn't know about the american Wizard's Edition Does someone know how much there are of the european one?

Does someone know how much there are of the european one?This is an issue that needs to go away with JRPGS. I don't have any qualms with the other things listed.
FFXIII-2 did it right.

Long as I can skip cutscenes, and there is a save point before a boss. I don't care. That is what sucked in some games having to rewatch a scene many a time over cause you can't skip it if the boss beats you.

Will the contents of the hardcover book be available to read in-game?

WTF they are seriously calling it Ni no Kuni in the western releases?
No English translation?
No English translation?
Ni no Kuni sounds more unique and memorable than Second Country which is the direct translation.
