Why do all JRPG's have these goofy anime character animations? I mean From Software has shown they can be a Japanese dev that can move away from this cringe worthy art style that's associated with this genre.

I wish more RPGs had anime, No No Kuni style or otherwise
I dont really see how this is cringe worthy esp if you watch anime, seems pretty well done

Omega Quintet is an RPG. There are videos which show exploration and the turn based battle system. You can even see the "Galapagos RPG" label that the game has 8 seconds into the video. Compile Heart made the Galapagos RPG label to signify that these games are heavily focused on the Japanese market.

Oh man, why do all WRPGs always have dirty gritty look to them with 30 year old white men as the main characters? When will Western developers learn to be more stylized instead of aiming for boring brown and grey realism. <-- Tried to reverse your comment to the best I can.

It's a Japanese (eastern) thing. That's their style and that's what their market likes. Same goes for Western games. Most western games look gritty and aim for realism to appealing to a western audience. That's not to say that neither likes realism or fantasy, but the majority PREFER one over the other.

Yup. And there are games for everyone. No need to bash any type of game.

*and somewhere far in the ocean, a tentacle monster makes it way to the shore*

I must own this game NOW!

Strange so far, didn't see anything that seemed RPG , more like a dance group simulator? Anyways maybe a good RPG hiding in there.

Sevir3545d ago

This is by far the most bizarre JRPG I've ever seen.

Can we get some traditional JRPGs and action RPGs please?

kowan3545d ago

It is a traditional RPG. THe dancing part is only an added feature for those who like it. They have long gameplay videos of the RPG part everywhere on Youtube already.

I would usually say regret, loneliness and a full HDD, but I'm seeing someone now for the first time in ages, so I didn't even know there was a steam summer sale going on. Thanks for sharing that info though.

Omega Quintet - PC Review | Chalgyr's Game Room

Chalgyr's Game Room writes:

Omega Quintet is a jRPG that your wife/girlfriend/mother is going to look at you strangely for playing. Moreso than the usual looks you get from jRPGs. Crafted by the crew at Compile Heart, this entry in your library is super Japanese, even though it's been translated over. That is not meant in any sort of disparaging sense of the term, but instead, if you tend to embrace the concept of Japan's pop idols, and always wanted to turn those into battling jRPG characters, well this is your chance.

Omega Quintet review - ChristCenteredGamer

Omega Quintet stars the verse maidens, magical girls who slay creatures called the MAD using song and dance. These monsters are spawned by the Blare, a strange black substance that turns organic beings into MAD. With the old verse maiden Momoka retiring, it's up to Otoha and the newest verse maidens to defeat the MAD once and for all.
