It's good, maybe little simplified over some other tales games, but it's very enjoyable experience! Story and character are good. What really shines is battle system and it's versatility. You can make it as hard and tactical as you please with exploiting weaknesses, tactical movement and CC management tactics or just a button masher where you just want to cool stuff happen on screen and don't want to give much thought in to it.Ando85 said:
Xenoblade is long ass game so you might want to take a turns between Graces and Xenoblade to keep things fresh. I always do that if i have 2 new J-rpgs (in my case i take turns between Graces and MK2)
P.S. I would say Graces F is one of the best J-RPGs i played in years. It's just so competent and fun.
I've been playing playing Skyrim solid since patch 1.5, why? Because it's an epic game and the new kill-moves are so satisfying to watch. I have a backlog of games to get through. Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Kingdoms of Amalur, Arcanum of Steamworks and Magick Obscura to name a few. But for the moment I'm getting my Skyrim fix.
Plants Vs. Zombies. A little of the Dreamworld thingie for Pokemon Black, but that's pretty much a ghost town, so I try not to play too long. Not much else. I'm probably gonna get myself a new game for my birthday though.
Kingdoms of amalur. I'm enjoying it a great deal, but the dialogue makes me sad. They put so much effort into the dialogue and the lore, but they completely passed over what makes RPG dialogue fun: insanity, randomness, and humor. Everything is so....bland in that department.
the quest options have so far been: 'yes, I'll help you' or 'no, I won't help you' when they could be more interesting.
a great example of this is from baldur's gate. there is a guard who asks you where you come from when you first enter baldur's gate, and one of the options is something along the lines of 'I HAIL FROM THE SPARKLY MAGICAL LAND OF THE BUGBEARS!! AWAHAHAHAH!! BOW PEASANT! I AM YOUR NEW MASTER!"
it need some more of the humor or BG to keep it interesting beyond the combat.

Gotham City impostors, it`s fun as hell, even if you`re on the loosing end. They seem to have fixed the matchmaking and the new (for free) map is cool too. I can`t recommend it enough.
-League of Legends,with a buddy.
-Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance,with the same buddy and alone.
-Freelancer. Well,it's multiplayer mod Discovery.
-New Vegas,modded to the gills with Project Nevada,plus a few others.
-Skyrim.
-Tribes: Ascend.
-Technic Minecraft.
-Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. Time to try and beat the Vanitas Remnant. Whoo-hoo...I won't get a single hit in edgewise again,won't I?
-And,every now and again,Nehrim: At Fate's Edge,the Oblivion total conversion mod from Awesomeland.
I like my PC.

Good luck! It's so satisfying to come out of child arc combat and in to adult.Ando85 said:
Yeah story is little bit cliché but very enjoyable, i don't mind cliché too.
I have a pretty big backlog I need to attack, but for now...
What? Kid Icarus Uprising.
Why? Because it's amazing that they took elements from a game that hasn't been relevant for years and used them to create a brand new monster. And said monster is actually really fun to play. I'll go to bed after I play about 10 more Light vs. Dark matches.
Still looking to make better weapons, too, especially Blades, Bows, and Claws.
What? Pokemon White.
Why? I'm breeding and training Pokemon all the time. Current project is a Haxorus. Thinking about trying to train a Kingdra, too, but I'd probably do that on Platinum.
What? Chrono Trigger.
Why? Well, I've beaten the story. Now I want to see if I can get the alternate endings. Should I pursue the earliest one right away? I'd only have Crono and Marle to use, and that could make for a difficult fight (which I've failed once already).
What? Ninja Gaiden (NES).
Why? Because Act 6-2 is brutal, and I'm stuck on it.
