duckroll said:Totally believable impressions. The demo sucked at TGS and this is the same one. The only impressive part is the first 10 minutes of seamless battles and FMV.
Just watched some of the videos. I think it looks great!AndriaSang said:I'll put up movies at IGN later so you can see for yourself.
Although maybe I'll hold off until the demo is officially out.
Doom_Bringer said:Next gen graphics and 1990 gameplay don't mix. The battle system is totally horrendous. They should have made this an action rpg

duckroll said:The gameplay isn't worth talking about, you can play FF1 for 5 minutes and it's the same thing. In the demo you get spells from rubble around the field, and the battles consist of ATTACK, MAGIC, ITEM and GUARD. You regain HP when you guard, but even if you die you get up again with 94 HP, since you're IMMORTAL. Lame.
Well I'm pretty sure the final game will look and move really good, in fact the demo for all its problems really shows some potential in the graphics department. The main problem here seems to be the game design itself, like the way you explore the environments. From what I've read here and I've been told it's like we went back almost 10 years in the past in terms of interactivity.Hunahan said:Hm. This really is too bad. Even watching videos it's pretty underwhelming. No wonder they cut off the TGS stage demo after the exciting part.
Hopefully it still has much work to be done. Isn't this supposed to be a 20million budget game? Certainly doesn't look like it so far...
What are they doing with all the money?
This is a 40 million dollar budget game minimum and all the posts here are as if this was a final version instead of alpha which it realy is.Hunahan said:Hm. This really is too bad. Even watching videos it's pretty underwhelming. No wonder they cut off the TGS stage demo after the exciting part.

Every other word i see on this forum about the game is that it is shit,the disrespect the 100+ man team is receiving and especialy the gaming legend Hironobu Sakaguchi is truly sad.
Thank god i am not a developer on mistwalker because after seeing for what people i am developing for(neogaf forum) i would reconsider working 12 hours a day for 3 years and instead of it i should play games and insult the game developers over the internet.
If you dont know(and you read what i said) then you proved my point perfectly.Amir0x said:How is it disrespectful to say a game is currently in very shitty shape if it is?

Maybe Lost Odyssey will be an amazing game when it's released, maybe it will even be the best RPG of this generation, or the best RPG ever. But they (be it Mistwalker or MS) decided to show that game the hundreds of thousands of gamers in that sorry state, and thus we are totally entitled our critics. If they can't accept that people didn't like what they saw, then they shouldn't have released the demo in the first place.irenicus6 said:This is a 40 million dollar budget game minimum and all the posts here are as if this was a final version instead of alpha which it realy is.

RaijinFY said:Anyway, I thought Sakaguchi said he wouldnt show his games until they are ready?
Yeah it's funny how we did not see anything of Blue Dragon until 3 months before the release date, and on the other side we already have a playable demo of Lost Odyssey months if not a year before the release date.RaijinFY said:Anyway, I thought Sakaguchi said he wouldnt show his games until they are ready?

DeadlySchnauzer said:go play any of the final fantasy games and compare.
DeadlySchnauzer said:wtf I feel like i'm taking crazy pills?? I dont see how people are being so harsh on the demo (admittedly i've only seen the videos).
It looks like most other jRPG's to me... people complaining about the combat and interactivity, go play any of the final fantasy games and compare. Its the *same* freakin thing.
What i do see is some awesome art direction and pretty darn nice technology in a very jRPGish style game. So whats wrong with that?

MrSardonic said:what's the summary of this thread?
The impressions you made were made by a mentaly retarted person because there is no other explanation,because who else would spend this much time insulting the game while knowing it has a year left of development.This wasnt the review bulid which you still dont understand and i know this demo has a lot of rough areas(i have the demo) but constructive critics can help the developers not this is shit that is shit...duckroll said:Maybe you should read my impressions again.
