This game's currently on sale on PSN. I've never played a Star Ocean game, and I crave a JRPG that I haven't played yet. Is this any good?

BUMP, Game in question is Star Ocean : Integrity And Faithlessness btw

Abort. Fucking don't do it.

Rule #1: don't ask about good games on Sup Forums

Diamond tits

ive played it

it was alright user,its got a sexy witch also

Play SO4 remaster.

Just all around better.

Its about a 6/10 will post why if someone cries about it. Try other games in the series if u want a jrpg to grind on

It's worth about $15 or so at most.

Not an awful game, but the others in the series (especially 2 or 3) are infinitely better.

Not OP, but is Till The End Of Time any good? I remember being praised for it's combat, and is it worth the story worth the trouble despite knowing the twist?

What happened to Star Ocean? The Second Story was so good and everything that came after is so not good.

It is weird. One (1) really good game in the whole series and somehow Star Ocean is still considered ”a name”. Same with Valkyria Chronicles.

I couldn't even finish it and I pre-ordered it. Just don't. If you want a star ocean game play 4 which was recently remastered

4 was so, so bad. i dropped it. i thought this would be better, i really would, but it is nearly just as bad.

Fucking don't.

OP here, thanks guys, I'll skip it then. I think I'll just emulate second story, ever since I was a kid and watched exactly this movie on one of these PSX demo discs I wanted to try it but I never got it.

I've played it and even got the platinum trophy for it. Trust me when I say, this is one of the worst JRPGs you can play. If you crave Star Ocean, try any of the other entries, this one is just insultingly bad.

I dropped SO4 too, but 5 I managed to play all the way through doing all the trivial side quests and the bonus dungeon.
it's alright.

Personally, i'm intrigued as to how bad this game is and want to give it a shot. Having all you characters in battle at once seems like a neat feature, but I heard that's it totally stupid and turns boss encounters into damage sponges.

Here. This is the best thing about this game. I just saved you 20 bucks no need for thanks.

It's more chaotic than anything and all difficulty stems from your characters being oneshot all of a sudden. Also, since you can chain skills into each other and get the multiplier each time for activating a skill, all you do is basically spam the same skill all the time which makes combat really boring. Another thing is that the game basically skips all cutscenes and has those slow walking sections instead where your characters talk, the problem here is that these sections can't be skipped. And to top it all of, the bonus dungeon you unlock at the end of the game is really bad.

Is the same as every single Star Ocean, you are or might have party members that traveled to a very undeveloped planet then you pass too much time there without seeing STARS.
At least 5 was brief like the first.

Thanks, not OP but I may or may not have considered this game because of this witch's outfit

its one of the worst jrpgs made in recent years, its almost as bad as SAO games and nep trash

It's an absolutely terrible game. Don't waste your money.

I remember when 4 came out. I was so depressed, considering SO2 and SO3 were two of my favorite games of all time.

Its good. The ones complaining about the twist are just retards; dont know how to explain it any better

I'd say so user

Nostalgia might be blinding me a bit, but the story was really intriguing for the most part, twist aside.

The combat was really fun, I wish more games aside from tales had it's style. So go for it, most of the time the twist is the worst thing people have to say about that game

did thay do any thing ti fix the ending i liked this game a lot i played it back on the ps3 but got to the end and beat it and was like ? realy is that it realy bad ending and this is comeing from a gye thats beat the liveing crap out on endless games and seen some bad endings but this one takes the cake

It's distinctly better than SO4, but that's not saying much.

Overall experience is "meh"
The MC is a wet paper bag personality, the story takes half the game to get going, and the level design isn't very good.
High points are: The rest of your party, the synthesis system (although it takes too long to unlock it), and the combat is good in theory, but in practice turns into a clusterfuck due to too many actors in battle at once.

It's just a clusterfuck. The gameplay boils down to spamming skills that make you invincible otherwise you just get knocked out of everything because an enemy attacks you from all the way across the screen.
There's a rock paper scissors thing going on with lights heavys and guards but it's completely pointless because every boss is immune to being staggered and tanks through your hits regardless of that system.
