Complains about poor grammar and punctuation but doesn't add a period at the end of his rant. Guy's a clown.

I'd be very surprised if this is as good as Octopath Traveler 2 honestly. Scores say its better, but I have to see it for myself.Is this going to be a repeat of octopath travels where nerdy nostalgic reviewers lose their mind but when I play the game it bores me to tears?
I’m currently playing through Suikoden on my PS1.This or Suikoden in a months time? Can only play one then I'll be burned out.
First Suikoden is a classic, although if I remember correctly it’s a bit short unless you want to recruit every possible character.This or Suikoden in a months time? Can only play one then I'll be burned out.
Yeah, I think you're right about this. Suikoden is dropping in the next month or two.I’m currently playing through Suikoden on my PS1.
Suikoden for sure. These modern “retro games” promise that same feeling of classic games, but in the end, they are just modern games with a retro facade. The difference is more then just pixel graphics and SNES soundfonts.

Can’t go wrong with either option imo.
The combat is nowhere near as good as Octopath, but the other stuff is pretty good. It feels like the old school JRPG where you gather your party and go on a journey. It's been done well so far.I'd be very surprised if this is as good as Octopath Traveler 2 honestly. Scores say its better, but I have to see it for myself.

Combining the store leak with:Did they officially announce a release date? I only heard about the Australian store leak slating for October.

On page 11 it's still showing 2023
Schreier is the clowniest clown of the videogame journalists circus.
I'm 1.5-2 hours in. Just finished the trial. One thing isn't making sense to me.
Why can Garl collect Live Mana? Hr tags along into the trial and all of the sudden has the ability to do so even though he's (at this point) a regular guy?
Perhaps this is explained later, and please don't spoil why if it is, but it doesn't make sense to me.

Played the demo and the dialogue put me off from getting this game. Like the art style and the combat was OK but I had the same complaint about the writing. I just started skipping what they were saying cause I wanted to interact with the world more.Grammar isn't what concerns me.....it's the game being too "text heavy" from what I am hearing. If there's a good story to be told, then good...but I don't want to be stuck in dialogue for 15-30 mins like I was for Eastward (another 16 bit like indie). The demo had some of this where NPCs I didn't care for were going on and on and on for like 10+ minutes with what I call uneventful filler dialogue. Otherwise the game looks insanely fun.
It definitely picks up soon after the intro. The level design is among the best ever for a retro RPG of this kind. Virtually every screen has you climbing, jumping, or moving along an interesting route. Almost feels more like Landstalker than Chrono Trigger at times. Combat is a ton of fun as well once you get used to it.Played the demo and the dialogue put me off from getting this game.

Too wordy for a demo.
how so? these games have many of the same aspects to them.I’m currently playing through Suikoden on my PS1.

I was also confused for a moment, but I'm sure that an explanation will follow at some point.Didn't the Elder Mist say something like "Maybe he's able to awaken IT"?
Still not made up my mind between Xbox or PS5 to play it on.How are people playing the game? I'm thinking I'll play it on Xbox because of gamepass, but woukd be great to have it on my Switch and play on mobile.
