Reactions to Xenosaga Ep II
Well, Episode 2 is out now and I've only been able to put about a solid 7 hours into the game so far but already it's everything I was expecting and more. Forget the reviews, I am in heaven, I have work tomorrow and I can't possibly describe how hard it was to turn it off just now. Well, I had better get to bed.
Anyone else playing? How are your reactions?
I just got it and I don't think my Clear Data was properly saved on my memory card, so I'll probably have to murder Albedo before I start playing it. I should have a good response tonight, I hope.
The game has been a LOT of characterization so far which is great, all of the characters are amazingly developed, AHH I can't wait to get home and play, I'm at work now
Also, I would like to point out, Albedo keeps rising on my bad guy scale, if this keeps up he might take Kefka's place as my favorite villain.
The length and scope of the game makes it so amazing for developing excellent detailed to the point characters... I am in love.
I'm picking up my copy this afternoon, so hopefully by this weekend I'll be able to play it.
I am excited.
Take care all.
Argh... I HAVE TO GET A REMODE CARD SOON!!!!!
Why, oh why isn't it released in europe?
I am away on buisness and probably will not be able to pick up until tomarrow. I can't wait though. I wonder if they released a super bonuse stratguide like they did with MGS3 and FFX-2.
It was too controversial so it wasnt released in Europe. FU,K!!!
Controversial how?
everything is wrapped in gray
i'm focusing on your image
can you hear me in the void?
Religion, drugs, corruption, moral rights questioning, dismemberment, rape, revolt, etc.
Take your pick.
The games are named after and loosely based on the writings of Nietzsche, they are bound to be controversial.
How should I know!? (sensitive subjectControversial how?)
I want this game..Religion, drugs, corruption, moral rights questioning, dismemberment, rape, revolt, etc.
For those of you in Europe who cannot buy this game, I ask you this: Why don't you buy the game online, and buy an NTSC adapter for your PS2? That would solve your problem, would it not?
I just finished the intro sequence and am very impressed. I'm intrigued by the introduction of this new character to the mix, though I was caught off guard by the change in chaos' voice. Still, a very minor point in the overall spectrum.
This game may well become my life for the next month or so, whenever I have time enough to play it.
Take care all.
The change in voice actors for many of the characters was surprising and a bit dissappointing, but really a minor note. The character of Jin is interesting, I enjoy the sibling interaction between him and Shion. I actually think chaos's new voice is the only one that is really fitting, I like how he sounds calm and composed. Fairly early in the game (SPOILER)Jin comments that it seems like chaos is hundreds of years old. I've been thinking chaos is a higher being of some sort for quite awhile now so it seems like blatant forshadowing to me. Any thoughts?
I've been suspecting that for a while too, but I probably should play a bit more of the game before I attempt to give any definite answer. Still, your instincts often prove true, good sir.
Take care all.
Xenosaga never came out in the UK. People in the UK never get all these games which really ticks me off. I feel so left out. I played the first one for a bit at my friends house who has got his PS2 chipped. I guess there good and ill probably get it if it finally decided to be released over here. In the mean time ive got quite a few RPGs to look forward to. Games i really want are......
Dark Cloud 3
Final Fantasy XII,XIII,XIV etc
I heard a strange but promising rumor saying that there will be an Alundra 3. I dought it though cause Alundra 2 apparantly was not very good yer it had a few changes but that promising story and gameplay kept people through it( i though it was fantastic) so they might ditch it but im still keeping my fingers and toes crossed
