My thoughts on Square Enix's recent actions
Square
Enix as a whole seems to be listening more closely to its fans lately.
When Final Fantasy Type-0 HD was released, it came with an almost
sickening camera system with absurd amounts of motion blur. For a while,
there was no hope of it being fixed. But on the day Episode Duscae's
patch launched, the camera for Type-0 also got patched, addressing the
game's biggest issue. And the fact that Episode Duscae, a demo, got patched at all seems
to signify that Square wants to make sure the final game turns out
well, and that they don't want to repeat their mistakes from Final Fantasy XIII.

Genei Ibun Roku #FE Impressions (Wii U)
Back
in 2013, Atlus and Nintendo delivered shocking news: Shin Megami Tensei
would receive a crossover with Fire Emblem for the Wii U. But after two years of no
information, a Nintendo Direct in April finally showcased more of the
game... and immediately made it one of the most controversial entries in
both series.Monday, May 25, 2015
Conception 2 Review (PS Vita/3DS)
The
PS Vita is known for having a large number of niche JRPGs of varying
quality, Conception 2 being no exception. But it stands out for having a
rather bizarre premise that bears a few similarities to Persona 4's
basic mechanics. Unfortunately, originality means nothing in the face of
poor execution.Monday, May 18, 2015
Tales of Symphonia Review (PS3 Chronicles Version)
Tales of Symphonia for the Nintendo Gamecube
is often regarded as one of, if not THE best game in the Namco's Tales
franchise. And in 2014, it (alongside with its sequel, Dawn of the New
World) received a remaster for the PS3 called Tales of Symphonia
Chronicles.
During the transition, it also received several new bonuses that were
previously exclusive to the Japanese PS2 version. Despite the battle
system showing its age, Tales of Symphonia is still worth playing.Friday, May 1, 2015
Star Stealing Prince Review (PC)
There
are times when the RPGs developed and sold by big companies like Square
Enix, Namco Bandai, or Nintendo just don't satisfy one's current
tastes. If you're willing to dive into the RPG Maker scene, there's tons
of different games to try out (and most are free). Star Stealing Prince
is one of them, and it's evident that a lot of work and care was put
into the development of this title.Saturday, April 25, 2015
Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Review (PS4/Xbox One)

In 2011, Square Enix
released a PSP title called "Final Fantasy Type-0". Those who imported
it claimed it was one of the few modern titles in the series that could
be called great, and others went as far as to call it one of the best
Final Fantasy games they ever played. But differing opinions aside,
everyone wanted the game to be localized on the PSP or Vita. Several
years after its initial release, the West finally got the game... on the
PS4 and Xbox One.
