I know this is not about the game experience, but I want everybody to know this.
I just got the item today. For those that didn’t know, it’s a 4 discs game.
I opened the box, and I found out that I received two disc 2s, disc 3 and disc 4 (instead of disc 1, 2, 3, 4). I was VERY dissapointed. I don’t know if this is Amazon’s fault or Microsoft or whoever. But let this be a warning for you. I can’t even play before returning it since it didn’t come with disc 1!
My point is: buying at your local store, you can swap this immediately. Buying from Amazon, you have to wait until Amazon received the game you sent back, and again wait for the game to be shipped to you. That’s a minimum 5 days delay and very unacceptable.
I will try again one more time, since I loathe Gamestop and their used sports meeting practice, so I don’t want my cash to go there. But if this happen again, I would probably consider twice buying sports meeting from Amazon
Cmon Amazon, you’re better than this.

Slow, slow SLOWWWWWWW. I mean I like final fantasy type RPG sports meeting. This looked a lot like that from the trailer, but it just doesn’t deliver. The tale, graphics and gameplay feel very mandatory. The whole time I was playing it I kept wondering if i was playing some video game made by some kid in video game design school as their senior scheme. This is in no way a polished RPG. I gave the game away after giving it an hour of my life i’ll never get back.

Lost Odyssey may be a next-gen game, but its roots are certainly in the ancient school world of turn-based, RPG gaming. Lost Odyssey follows the tale of Kaim: a brooding immortal on a mission of self-discovery. Or something. The tale is kind of hard to follow, with prolonged sequences that attempt to flesh out the game’s tale and characters. The characters of Lost Odyssey themselves are splendid and fascinating on their own, but they’re stuck in a run of the mill tale we’ve seen in RPG’s before, and will more than likely see again. The game’s turn-based combat is where the real meat and potatoes of Lost Odyssey is to be found though, with some splendid animations and some brilliant uses of spells and skills development. What really hurts Lost Odyssey though is that the non-battle gameplay elements are just plain dull. You’ll feel as if you’re doing a ton of backtracking throughout the game, which is not anything new to the RPG world, but here it just seems more noticeable than anything else. Also, there are some really long loading times that populate throughout the game and detract from the gameplay experience, by the side of with some technical issues and frame-rate problems that pop-up from time to time. Flaws aside, Lost Odyssey is a mostly gorgeous, lengthy, turn-based RPG that long time fans of the genre should get some enjoyment out of, just don’t expect anything real special here.

Seriously though…
Given the low number of RPG’s available on the 360, I’ve been anticipating this game for quite some time now. Suffice to say, I was excited when I first popped the game in. From the art design to the seamless transition between cut scenes and player-controlled combat, the introduction was impressive. Though I didn’t have access to skills or magic yet, the combat system seemed to be enjoyable.
My conundrum with the game occurred before long after Kaim arrives at Uhra. I was starting to get a bit worried while watching the cut scenes featuring the debating Uhra Council. The dialogue just seemed…wooden. I don’t know if it was the voice actors or the writing itself that irked me. It was probably a combination of both. Come to reflect of it, the only voice actor I was truly impressed with was the one that played Jansen. But I tried to ignore it. After all, I’ve played decent RPG’s that have had their share of wooden dialogue.
The situation became impossible to ignore by the time Kaim had his first flashback of the past. I was initially hopeful. The brief cut scene was intense and emotional. It worked. But then the game launched into a bloated small tale. The next five minutes were filled with screen after screen of text that transitioned in and out like it belonged in a PowerPoint slideshow. That wasn’t really the conundrum. It was the writing itself that rubbed me the incorrect way. Do you want melodrama? Look no further, folks. This small gem read like the premise of a Lifetime movie, except it was written by an eighth grader. I’d like to reflect the hold responsible lies on the translation of the game to English. Maybe the Japanese version doesn’t come across this sappy.
But man, is this terrible. They beat you over the head with an over-abundance of flowery adjectives and cliché metaphors, all but screaming in your ear, “This is gorgeous and poetic! Feel terrible for Kaim! NOW!” I am sure that some of you out there may know what I am talking about. It was the kind of writing that made me reflect of Christopher Paolini’s Eragon novel. It read a small something like this:
“The nocturnal dew glittered on the delicate crimson flowers like a thousand twinkling stars in the dark midnight sky, untouched by the bitter harshness of the cruel world. Kaim felt his very soul weep out in eternal pain and mourn as he glanced at her and saw the shimmering pearly tears gliding down her gorgeous milky cheeks…blah blah blah.”
Do you get my drift? My friends and I groaned as we struggled owing to this tripe. We were relieved once it was finally over and the game resumed. But no more than ten minutes later, we were treated with YET ANOTHER flashback tale that was even longer and more juvenile than the first one. Except this one didn’t have the fascinating cut scene before it. If I were in charge of this game’s translation, I would have smacked the person that wrote this junk with a giant “Writing for Dummies” book. This prose needs some relentless red pen treatment. The emotion they are trying to pound into your skull would have been a hell of a lot more subtle and effective if they had cut out the melodramatic flab.
From what I’ve seen so far, they treat Kaim like he’s the emo poster boy for Immortals. I know the game is full of these “dreams” of Kaim’s past. I don’t reflect I could in person handle that, no matter how cool the other aspects of the game are.
I already know some of you may bash me for this review. You may criticize me for rating the game this low without playing it the entire way owing to. Save your breath. I am entitled to my opinion. I’m certainly not going to play this game the whole way owing to if I have to be bombarded with wishy-washy middle school creative writing projects that take me out of the tale rather than immerse me.
What is my final word on the game? If you can stomach this kind of stuff without being instantly turned off, go right ahead and pick it up. I’m sure the rest of the game is really cool. As for myself, if I want a dramatic RPG, I want one that doesn’t try this hard. I want one that conveys emotion without making me want to puke all over my Xbox 360. Thanks for reading.
