Seconds after watching the trailer for the first time this e3 and I went ahead and pre-ordered the game (which I rarely / never do). This is exactly everything what I want in a game. I miss the old jrpg times so much and I have to live in envy that we have so many "retro"-inspired games of almost every genre, except jrpgs. Could be even better with pre-rendered backgrounds, but it is close enough. The score is also absolutely amazing and I can't wait to hear it all. Alsomg worldmap %$§'+ <3
Vita or bust. I'm sorry, but the older I get and the older my kids get, the harder it is for me to play RPGs in non-handheld systems.
After SO5 reviews it's safe to not get excited for SE low budget JRPGs

You can get it for $30 off GMG. (I'm also a bit unsure about getting it at launch primarily due to the price)Would have been a must buy at 30, but 40 bucks seems a bit steep seeing how it's a tad on the short side. On the fence right now.
No, I find that having any type of anticipation for JRPGs anymore leads to utter disappointment. Better to just be surprised when they are good. I may sound old saying this but they don't make them how they use to.

I don't think I can take another SE budget title after Star Ocean 5I played it on Vita. It really felt like a budget game overall (not a bad game but it felt really cheap)

Happy to pay the asking price if it's a solid game.
Between import impressions and the way they've been advertising the game, it's been hard for me to get too excited for it. Maybe I've just been soured by the numerous other smaller projects that claim to be a revival of the Good Ol' Days of JRPGs but completely fail to capture the subtleties that made those games special.
I'm also in the camp that would have sprung for the Vita version if they brought it over (and fixed the loading problems). Definitely would be looking forward to it more if it had a physical release in English as well.
So Europeans are basically fucked if they want to benefit from the pre order stuff but also want to wait for reviews. Thanks SE.9pm west coast US time on Monday night (so midnight eastern and 5:00AM Tuesday BST) according to this tweet.
Sucks but it seems this game is at least decent from the reception it got in Japan so it's probably safe to pre-order if you have your expectations in check and really want the themes and soundtrack.So Europeans are basically fucked if they want to benefit from the pre order stuff but also want to wait for reviews. Thanks SE.
