or if they're deliberately creating an odd sense of isolation.
For me, that's how I felt about this game. If you can try to get yourself in the shoes of BRS/Stella herself, become the character ... in that scenario, life starts bleak and gets BLEAKER. I dig that. |

The motorcycle segments are a blast, brief as they are.
The "take no damage" challenges for the bike sequences drive me insane. I've completed 0 so far and I've attempted maybe 15 times. I actually like the lack of development for the characters. I love that the character who gets the most development, in his best moments, is Rothcall ... and ... I love that his character just STARTS to become really interesting, and he has really interesting things to say about the resilient spirit of humanity, and then BAM cut down. That was an insane choice to follow through with and I think there need to be more stories that are willing to take that risk. |

Wow. I'm a little surprised by this review Tooks!
I didn't look to see what anyone else had to say before playing. I just dove head-first. And while I agree with you that there's a TON of missed potential here, the core concepts of the game (both the mechanics of the combat, and the overall arc of the story) are fantastic as they are. For a $20 PSN game I'd have given it somewhere in the 80% range.
There are so many spoiler-specific details I want to talk about with other human beings. So if someone wants to start the spoiler /code stuff, I have things I want to discuss / analyze! I really like the bleakness of this world. I thought scenario writer Kazushige Nojima (whose other works I tend to enjoy) did a great job!

Apparently, the internet at large didn't know about this until about a month or two ago. Not game changing, but neat never the less (kinda like the Chicken Lady of LttP(1) that nobody really knew about until a few years ago).
wut? I just typed "Link to the Past Chicken Lady" in youtube and found nothing. |

If anyone on Leviathan server sees the character "Faithful" -- he was the caretaker of the Tonelico account for the last 2 years. Could anyone help a brutha out?
Quoting myself to be annoying. And to beg for help. If anyone has him on their friendlist and can contact him I'd appreciate it. :) |

My relic greatsword has made almost zero progress since last mention, think I bought 2 more 100 Byne Bills. Between no dynamis buddies, lack of voidwatch shouts, and an overall lul in the game again, I don't see much happening til adoulin comes out, which is thankfully march 26th.
I need to see if I can get back my old account. If anyone on Leviathan server sees the character "Faithful" -- he was the caretaker of the Tonelico account for the last 2 years. Could anyone help a brutha out? |
