One might make the argument that the game's targeted toward a younger crowd, which may account for the easy combat. But the musical numbers now use the original Japanese voices with English subtitles. This -- combined with the sometimes unapparent path through the storyline -- doesn't make for a kid-friendly game. Outside of the charming (and yes, very girlie) story and genuinely humorous dialogue, all that's left is a short, extremely easy, and sometimes confusing RPG.
"I laughed and I cried. I did both for reasons similar and opposite. I went full range on this one." -GR
"I have to go now. My planet needs me."
Pretty much. They just toss that plot twist in so stupidly.
"As we say in the 'cast, these aren't necessarily the worst songs in gaming, but they stand out to us as ones we dread. In most cases, they're simply the worst songs out of otherwise great soundtracks." -GR
Wait, how is Rhapsody a "Good Soundtrack?"
Anyway, the museum music in Animal Crossing: New Leaf is like the only song I don't enjoy.
So many albums have THAT song that just highlights how good the rest of the soundtrack is.
I dont want to even know why the $%#/ someone would thin any song in FF9 stains the soundtrack...
Just because a game is geared towards women doesn't mean men will catch cooties from trying it out. This list suggests men give Style Savvy: Trendsetter, Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom, Atelier Meruru, Princess Debut and Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure a chance.
I've enjoyed all the games listed here except for Hakuoki. Princess Debut is my favorite, and one every big burly man should play at least once.
Fantastic list.
If this is your way of justifying kiddie games, then do what you gotta do.
From the Artelier paragraph, 'the heroines are almost always female.' No crap sherlock!
Anyways, its true, one of the reasons I've never tried the Artelier games on PS3 is that it seems girly. Might give it a go as soon as the PSV port is released.
