I know they are working on it, but I want it NOW. I love Blue Dragon and would love to play it on my Xbox One, seriously one of the most charming JRPGs out there.

NewMonday2841d ago

Blue Dragon was a major let down, slow pace, battle transition and excessive grinding.

on the other hand Lost Odyssey is an all time classic JRPG, a true FF in everything but name.

also Tales Of Vesparia is still the best Tales ever

Abash2841d ago

You entirely missed the point of Blue Dragon. It is intended to be a heartwarming, oldschool JRPG done on an HD console. Does it have it's flaws? Sure, I can't even stand the vocals in the boss fight music and it is grindy like every other turn based JRPG. But Blue Dragon does so many things right like the story, art style, enemy designs, etc. that it is hard not to enjoy the game. I even love the simple battle system, that some criticized for not being innovative enough when the game was meant to play like classic JRPGs.

I would love to see a Blue Dragon sequel that tried something new with the series, but the original game is still great.

"You entirely missed the point of Blue Dragon.It is intended to be a heartwarming, oldschool JRPG"
didn't say anything about the story or plot, the issues I mentioned are all technical "slow pace, battle transition and excessive grinding"

when I said "slow pace" I was talking about going in and out of battles, IIRC you could combine a couple of encounters into one battle but that still wasn't enough to give it good pace.

Lost Odyssey is my all time fav jrpg next to vagrant story and ff9,but i think you were too harsh on blue dragon.It's a solid jrpg imo.It's not greta but it's solid.

Jag-T10002841d ago

OK dude, you know you are wrong when 10 people disagree with you. Just let it go.

gangsta_red2841d ago

"also Tales Of Vesparia is still the best Tales ever"

Now that we can definitely agree on.

NewMonday2841d ago

@Jag-T1000

wrong about Blue Dragon or wrong about Lost Odyssey and Vesparia?

anyway it's just my opinion

SirBradders2841d ago

Lost odyssey was macka, i played it for half hour then chucked it in the bin (literally). I love a good story and everything but I couldn't bare that battle system.

thekhurg2840d ago

Shut your mouth. Blue dragon was amazing.

LexHazard792840d ago

ok now ive read it all....

babadivad2840d ago (Edited 2840d ago )

Agreed on LO and Tales.

Yuri is by far and away the most bad ass jrpg lead character ever. He lived in the real world where everyone doesn't deserve a second chance. He twice went out and murdered evil [unarmed] people in cold blood. He's the only character I know who was the same person at the beginning of the game that he was at the end. The world didn't change him for the better[like what happens on so many feel good JRPGs] he change the world in a way he thought was right. He wasn't a product of the world around him, he mad the world a product of him.

Dude was just a boss.

Not sure why you got so many down votes, was it the LO or the Tales comment that did it?

DevilOgreFish2841d ago

About time! I definitely would love to play these games again.

christocolus2841d ago (Edited 2841d ago )

Finally. BD and Lost Odyssey are among the games I've been waiting for.. Glad I have my 360 saves stored in the cloud.can't wait to continue my playthrough and hopefully Lost Odyssey will arrive soon too.. :)

Auron2841d ago

Great news! Heres hoping Lost Odyssey isn't too far behind!

Movefasta19932841d ago (Edited 2841d ago )

omggggg now bring tales of vesperia,eternal sonata and Lost O!

Sciurus_vulgaris2841d ago

Lost Odyssey will come to BC, since MS owns it.

im not really surprised by that, shes always been more a "let me talk about something else than what u want to know" kinda gal

Cacabunga2d ago

If what they are doing is that good, what’s the point of hiding the true story?

anast2d ago

She's a caricature of the shareholders.

PRIMORDUS2d ago

"Shareholders" I call them cancer, they are already rich to begin with but need more and more. It's like a disease, with no cure.

__y2jb1d 10h ago

If you have a pension then you are likely to be a shareholder in these big tech companies yourself. To demonize them as 'heartless rich people' shows you have no idea what you're talking about.

anast1d 9h ago (Edited 1d 9h ago )

@Y2

Of course, it isn't about that. You are attempting to set up a self-righteous strawman to stir up some kind of ignorant mob mentality.

And by the way, most everyone is a touch heartless or we wouldn't be able to consume the products we do knowing very well how they are made. People have to be this way because of self-preservation and convenience.

__y2jb1d 6h ago

@anast please explain to me how what i said is self righteous or a strawman. I simply pointed out that categorizing all shareholders as cancer is ridiculous.

Leeroyw2d ago

I own shares in game companies. I'm not anything near a major share holder. I just want them to make good games and be successful because of that. I think it's the senior management that's the problem. They are the ones that should be making it clear to the shareholders what creates growth and ensures a future of their business. Not this weasle words garbage that she did on the interview. It was horrific. I don't know a shareholder that would be happy with any of them for this.

Profchaos1d 23h ago (Edited 1d 23h ago )

Same and I'm not rich by any stretch like most people's I'm just trying to keep my head above water these days most company's shareholders are made up of everyday people it's amazing how companies think we want something but the reality is we don't.

Disney are probably the worse at the moment it's shareholders voted on ending a lot of the crap and outing the current execs the execs turned around and said no we disagree with the shareholder vote

PRIMORDUS1d 18h ago

I meant at the rich fucks who have millions in the bank already. They are making so much per year, that if they don't make what they are expecting they go into a panic, when in reality it will not even hurt them at all. Those are greedy assholes.

anast1d 9h ago

"you have a pension then you are likely to be a shareholder"

Pensioners don't make any decisions about anything. Obviously that is not what this is about.

CrimsonWing692d ago

Yea, it was and it’s insulting that they think we’re dumb enough to fall for this. Look, the truth was you took a gamble on these studios and while they released some games to critical praise and great reception they just aren’t bringing in a ROI. Be transparent, you’re not a politician.

Just tell everyone you spend money on projects big and small and when money isn’t being made you go over the potential of revenue a studio can bring in vs those that can’t and make the hard decision to chop them.

She says this whole thing about “success” doesn’t fit one meaning for each studio. Well yea, a small budget production isn’t going to expect to sell the same as a large budget production.

One thing I wish they did though was let Tango be an independent studio.

TheGamingHounds2d ago

disheartening to see no regard for the human cost of business anymore
the bad decisions and judgements of these CEOs severely impact the frontliners
these fake responses are just salt on wounds

RoadRacer2d ago

imagine havin the audacity to say "we need more games like hifi rush" right after closing the studio that made it lol
followin up with this show of "deflecting every question" was in poor taste
