Anybody play this?

[pvtforlife]

I just purchased this game cause I forgot I had it preordered and now heavy rain will probably be taking up most of my time. Anybody actually open up a copy and play this yet?

[Roughdawg4]

Not yet but please let us know, I am curious to see how this game is. Role Playing games are just falling from the sky now

Well this is my following first impressions:

-Battle system is fun, you have to target different parts of the monster body, if under the right sequence, you'll attach more "stamps" to the monster, in enable for you to use magic skills on them

-Storyline seems to be kinda cliche, save the world theme with a bad-arse attitude hero, and a proud heroine.

-Battles need to be planned well as you need "chain points" to attack, and even if the monsters are dead, you have to seal them to destroy them. If not they will revive with stronger powers.

-Trophies seems to be story based after hearing some comments on gamefaqs. Someone said that they platted it in 14hours of gameplay, speculation much?

That last line seems quite interesting. Do let us know if that is true

[Roughdawg4]

Yeah that makes it very interesting now

Okay here's my update...I'm like 5 hours in, and I think the average time needed to complete this game is about 20+ hours. I'll try to create a guide, if possible >.<

But I can't upload my trophy pictures because the US playstation website seems not to support Last Rebellion T_T

Yes, I had about 20 hours on my last save when I got the platinum trophy. All of the trophies pop directly after killing certain enemies. It was kind of refreshing to not have silly collection trophies even though I expected them. I was sure that there would be a trophy for getting a complete bestiary at 100%, but there wasn't. I did enjoy the story and the battle mechanics. There are also a few NIS surprises!

I've been playing for a couple hours and, although it's not the greatest game ever, it's not awful. Yes, the graphics are subpar, but the battle system is interesting.

Can someone please post the trophies?

that game not for everybody i know 'sadly' here in canada that game wont have much value and i can understand its came right in midle of star ocean and ff13, about the graphic i think they are ok for NIS there is nothing bad in there the hand made picture of character are really cool and any fans will know that when you play a NIS game you dont play for the graphic... but i have to admit i just started it im still at the begening when you can play with both character now but im little disappointed to heard its only about 20H when everything they made its mostly a good 40-50h of story and 100h+ if you dig into all oh well... i like it cause im a hardcore fan of NIS but that game are not for every one look carefully before buying or just rent it since its only 20h

I picked it over FFXIII...I got it and TLH, but it seems to be selling at EB in Canada away. Can't say I understand why it was released sandwiched between two of the bigger named RPGs though.
