[quote name='jrhawk42']I guess I'll put my two cents in about this game. It's awesome... no seriously it's my favorite game this gen. That being said here's some reasons not to get it.
1. You hate anime. For the most part this game is an anime styled game, and it's awesome. Just such a great story, and the art is beautiful, but yea if you hate anime this game isn't going to change that.
2. You need trophies... this doesn't have any, and if you care, I feel sorry for you.
3. You don't want anything turn based. While the turns are much better than most it's still a turn based game.
4. You need something online. No multiplayer no stats, no online connectivity.
5. You think it'll be worth something. Honestly there's nothing about this game that warrants it being collectible. It's popular enough to have a reprint, but not popular enough to quickly sell out. I'll give you that this game in no way sold as many copies as it should of, and is a modern masterpiece. Still 2 things are needed for something to be collectible. One it needs to be rare. There are about 2 million copies of this game floating around. It's not going to hard to find a sealed one until 30+ years from now. Even then it'll probably only bring 5x it's retail price. And who knows who'll be interested in the game by then, and it's not like nobody will be able to play it.[/QUOTE]
These are very good points. I would also throw in that if you don't like hard games, you may want to pass. This game can get pretty challenging at times. Still, it is an amazing game and definitely worth a play.
