To those who downloaded even though it's not their kind of game, thanks. You're supporting a vocal minority of xbox gamers who sometimes get ridiculed by fans of the more established franchises when we ask for Jrpgs or gems like this on Xbox.
So, thanks for the support. Hopefully MS will take notice.

Jensen is f***ing radical!

I'm loving this game so much!

I've only had 4 come so far, and the first two we painful.
Strained placement, I think. If they were placed later, I wouldn't have been tempted to skip them.
I'm hoping to get a chance to play this a little while on Saturday. This and Eternal Sonata are the two 360 JRPG type games that I never got around to picking up and to have this come in as a freebie is just outstanding.
I might have to pick up FF XV at some point relatively soon, it sounds like. But maybe by the time I get a chance to play through this I will have finished at least the first Witcher game on my laptop and then will play that on the XBox or sooner on the laptop, so I can play through Witcher III since I actually bought it. Once that's all done, hopefully FF XV will have had some price drops.
Play this one first. At least you have a deadline to complete it.I'm hoping to get a chance to play this a little while on Saturday. This and Eternal Sonata are the two 360 JRPG type games that I never got around to picking up and to have this come in as a freebie is just outstanding.

Witcher 1? Skip it. Witcher 3 is so fully fleshed out and 'in the moment,' that the lore is thrust upon you.
FFXV? Don't buy it yet. Looking at it after finishing it, the story is so full of holes, its thirstier than a sponge. And it will be sold to us installments.

I'm near the end of the second chapter in the first Witcher, so it's too late to skip. And it's pretty enjoyable, too, though I decided for expediency's sake I'm going to just follow a walkthrough.
Witcher 1 wasn't really made with a directors perspective, so a walkthrough would probabley help.
But seriously, check this game out. It's pretty spesh!
I spent 5 hours on it today alone. I have been aching for a turnbased RPG for so long. You can play it on the tread mill... almost.
They added some QTE s*** to each turn, so you have to trigger each attack, just like in FF8. If you miss it, it doesn't really matter so far though.
Oh, it's definitely next for me on the Xbox. I just get so little playtime on that - usually when I get up on Saturday until the munchkin is up, and then if it's a game he enjoys watching me play (either because he can direct me like in Deus Ex: "Go in the tunnel, today or tonight?" or because he can watch hilarious fails, like ReCore's tower levels) I can play until his direction gets to the point where one of us gets frustrated.
If it's anything like FF8 (other than the ridiculous draw system) I'm definitely in. I enjoyed the hell out of that game, even more than 9 and probably right on par with 7.
I got reduced to playing Disney Fantasia for a long while. I feel your pain.
(Also, why do people hate the draw system? Just go to the Island closest to Hell, and draw Omega/Ultima and Use Quistis' degenerator!)
Think I may purchase Blue Dragon today. L.O. is a piece of magic. I'm enjoying myself immensely.
Co-Sign. A Thousand Years of Dreams are one of the best parts of this game. Say what you want about the main game's story or mechanics, the dreams are some of the best short stories in a game ever.
Wait until you get to some of the other ones. They're all poetic in their own way. Some will have you grinning ear to ear or leave you in deep thought. A few will be heartbreaking and like Hanna's departure.
I wish the guy who did the stories did the main game's story.
The final battle is quite epic. I urge you to go back and finish it when you have some free time on your hands.
Blue Dragon is beautiful, same as L.O.
Best part, I can play this on my G Cloud handheld device!
Fantastic game and should be remastered/remade with stripped out random combat encounters and touched up graphics.
The game doesn't get enough praise imo.
