So people who like MS/Xbox One are considered shills now?

Depending on who you ask? And here I thought it was unanimous...

What does this even mean? Are you saying you want Sony to pay a third party studio to make a game that Sony publishes? Why would you kill for this? Do you mean Japan Studio game? Japan Studio has very few people from the days of the PSX.
No one said that. I said "fan": singular. "...one of MS' greatest fans". While that may seem plural, its not. Read it again. Also never called him a shill directly, merely implied an inference previously made. There's a level of mania toward companies that is so irrational that its natural to wonder if astroturfing is involved.

All hope is now lost. Goodbye Japan.
He wants a studio within Sony making JRPGs.
I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. You don't make it easy.
So true...so true.....

Huge difference between people that like MS/Xbone and SenjutsuSage. I honestly feel embarrassed for MS/Xbone fans while reading a lot of his posts.

lol, well, I can't exactly stop people from saying it, or thinking it, so might as well have some fun with it.
Right... whatever helps you better justify the fact that the only reason I get so much hate is largely because I'm unapologetic about having a positive view of the Xbox One as a platform. There's a reason some people use the term MS or Xbox fan almost as an intended insult. It's not me that most of you dislike, it's the company and the product. After you then unload that anger on someone, me being a favorite target of sorts, it then justifies you to say pretty much anything afterwards. Just set it up as being entirely about me, and not the company that some of you hate with such a passion lol. Anyway, I know when it's time to move on, because I'm certain if I continue this conversation I'll get the equivalent of Thor's hammer.
I think he means Legend of Dragoon, a proper HD Wild Arms, next gen Dark Cloud. Lots of IPs that never saw the light of day last gen.
Yes it's a very good game that is more Final Fantasy than XIII is. Some of the optional hidden bosses are very fun to fight and the immortal skill learning stuff is neat as well.

Without a doubt....YES
Check above. It was a joke.
Yes. Its a fantastic game. Worth a 360 for. Vesperia isn't bad either.

Well, I'll be. So much for my reading compehension skills
. Thanks for the clarification.I don't really agree with this. But it's very similar to PSX-era FF, sure.
Along with The Last Remnant, Tales of Vesperia, Magna Carta 2 and Blue Dragon, it was well worth purchasing a X360 as a JRPG fan.

It was a mediocre JRPG that got overrated because people were desperate for anything that resembled an HD Final Fantasy. But it's probably so cheap by this point that you can't really go wrong.
They are what I tend to think of when it comes to Final fantasy games. It's a big reason why I enjoyed LO so much as it just ticked all of the right boxes from that era of RPG games.
If anything it's underrated. People seem far more keen to talk about weak efforts such as Ni No Kuni rather than the likes of LO.
Fair enough.
I feel like mainline FF's biggest trademark is that it constantly changes and evolves.
I don't feel like LO does that. Its mechanics are deeply rooted in PSX-era RPGs, and even visually it's really reminiscent of games like FFVIII. That's a good thing, too, we need more games like that!

I want to emphasize that I don't think it's a bad game at all. Quite the contrary, it did a good job of translating the PS1 JRPG experience to the HD era. And it had a really awesome soundtrack. It did a lot of things right, but I feel like the story/villain were rather weak and that the gameplay didn't bring a whole lot to the table. It was a solid turn-based system, but it wasn't very interesting IMO. It was overly simplistic and it didn't even have summons. If LO had a deeper battle system with quicker loading times, it probably would have been one of my favorite games of last gen.
Pretty much sums up what I think of the game too.
+ the short stories were pretty great and the environment visuals were nice too.

Stealth Lost Odyssey love thread.
OK, I have to put on the soundtrack now. And I already listen to it about once a week. "Sad Tolten", "Eclipse of Time", "Neverending Journey"... sigh, I love it so much.

Awww..
Called it. Funny how people got carried away.
Not true at all. FFXIII is far more fun to play than LO and take out the 1000 Year Dreams and you have a storyline that is inferior to XIII's. Dialogue is better though.

Well, that sucks.
Don't agree with you, imo it's only really must play JRPG this gen. I don't get the hate, but accepted it. It would be really nice if some people stopped posting things like that if it was generally accepted point of view, because it is not.
And last I heard it's not cheap anymore, because it never was reprinted and due to cheap packaging, MS chose, many copies had bad forth disk, so aren't that many used ones too.
Not true at all
LO is far superior game in about every field, except graphics, FF13 isn't even competition.

And I disagree with you.
I personally believe Xenoblade was the best JRPG last generation. Nothing compares to the massive world with tons of exploration, amazing soundtrack, postcard visuals you get from that game and some pretty amazing combat to boot. All of which were done on the Wii which makes it even more amazing.
Just imagine what Monolith Soft's "X" will be like when we finally get to play it and what they'll accomplish!

Agreed. At least I could finish FFXIII, I simply did not care by the time I got to the last disc on LO.
One of the many JRPG disappointments I experienced last gen.
Meltdowns for a Mistwalker game? It's not 2006 anymore.

Why is it that people who put an "x" in their name often seem so deluded?
