Examiner: "NIS America just announced that Phantom Brave: We Meet Again will be delayed until August 4th to add in Japanese voice overs. Originally planned for a late June release, NIS America feels that it'll be better to serve their fans by adding the option of Japense voices."
From Xfire: "The golden era of JRPGs has long since passed, with more traditional RPGs having planted themselves firmly under the spotlight for the better part of the past two decades. However, while there's not been as many JRPG games released in recent years, there's still enough of them being released that results in certain titles slipping under the proverbial radar."
Most of these are the weak story jrpgs which is why its an easy pass for myself. I don't have love to turn based or tactics battles systems but I enjoy the other aspects of jrpgs. The most important aspect to me is the story. I have put up with playing horrible battle systems and mini games that should never exist to enjoy the lengthy and amazing stories these games have. For some reason around the PS3 days they seemed to think, who cares about story just worry about battle system and crafting. So if those are the things you're looking for then this list is for you.
I’ve been trying to get back into playing JRPGs lately. With the recent release of Persona 5 Strikers, I finally decided to start playing Royal. I don’t know if I can make the time for just any JRPG though, and Persona games are always an experience and a half.
PC Aficionado: "The Humble Store just launched it’s NIS Amerca Sale, bringing some of the best JRPGs at a ridiculously low price. Titles come in at up to 60% off, all while supporting charity with each purchase."
Phantom Brave is in a unique position where it relies on established NIS conventions, but strays from them just enough to give diehards something different.
I wish all companies would try to do similar. I always enjoy listening to things in the original language.
I like you NIS please keep putting those Japanese and English options in the game. Even though I personally will only use Japanese at least the choice will be there for those who prefer the dialogue in English.
