Anyone played this relatively new RPG? It's developed by some Korean developer and published by Atlus.
Nice decent story, Horrible voice acting, Good battle system and flexible "battle outcomes" (As in you can actually defeat some very hard bosses or run away from them, which depends on the situation and story at that moment)
The battle system is a hybrid of Shadow Hearts and Star Ocean and is a bit difficult. The button timing and presses are really fast and you actually have to press more than just a button. You also move around an enviournment much like the Battle system of Star Ocean III.
So... Has anyone else played this? :D

Really want to get it some time, I love the concept art for it (what I've seen so far, the characters especially)
I've always been disappointed that the MC series were never released here...=/
But the new game will be released here so it's all good, got my eyes set on it. :D
Imo, Hyung Tae Kim's character designs > Nomura's character designs.

Oh, it's finally being released over here? About damned time, I want to play that game.
I was over at EB and I seen this game. I really liked how it looked, and I wanted to get it, but I was afraid to because I will be honest, I have never heard of it. I may rent it or something to see what it is like before buying.

It's not overly superb or anything xD
The story revolves around a conflict between Humans and the Yason (Elve like Humans). They have a war going on during the course of the game, and A group known as the "Tears of Blood" are given a very important mission at the start of the game. They end up failing and barely escaping with their lives. And errr... that's about as far in the game as I got before I broke my PS2 xD
The Openning FMV's Song is kinda... crappy, and the voice acting get's funnier and funnier as the game progresses, but if you can forgive that, there's a good story and some awesome gameplay hidden underneath :)

I've already bought and played this game. It's kinda hard, but you'll get into it.
The Battle System is a bit difficult, wherein there are Chi's/Elements and you need
it to attack. There also Styles for each character, there is a trinity ring just like
the Judgement Ring in SH, but there is a difference, you have to press the right
button on time. You can also perform Combos. When attacking, it's not like Star Ocean III,
there is an ATB. The voice acting is horrible and the guys look like women. The opening
FMV is good but the song is crappy(English, it would be good for me if it was Japanese).
It's good, though. So maybe you should try it!
