The combat alone makes it a good pick. Add in the ridiculous plot and the high production values, and we have a unique game that is totally worth experiencing. No one will call it the classic that defined the Wii U, but similarly to The Wonderful 101, if you didn't pick it up, you missed out.

Buy #FE when it comes out, you dolts.

Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called war; and such a war as is of every man against every man.

Yeah, I'll be picking it up. Then again, one of the reasons I got a WiiU was to finally have something to play Sakura Wars 5 for the Wii on and I thoroughly enjoyed that, so I'm pretty firmly #FE's target demo.

I'm currently trying the Lost Reavers public beta. Well, I can say it's definitely beta, since I'm stuck while connecting to a game room and apparently there's no timeout on this. :v:

Heck, I've got some pictures of my cat around here somewhere, may as well enter. I assume if you win you don't need to produce the pet? He's been dead for 2 years.

#FE looks like Persona without most of the elements that make Persona interesting and enjoyable. Also I can't stand the idol industry and this game completely revels in it, like a dog rolling in it's own poop. I haven't played any FE games either so that element is lost to me. There's literally zero reason for me to buy it, and I love RPGs.

I think it's probably a good game since Atlus is a pretty decent dev in my experience, but I don't play Persona.

A more useful piece of information is that #FE is apparently one of the lowest-selling SMT-related titles ever, underselling even the bad Xbox game.

Did it undersell the Vita exclusive rhythm game?

The rhythm game had "Persona 4" in the title, so definitely.

I think I can summarise Lost Reavers in three things: Grindy, simple and limited. It's like they did a mobage port to the Wii U, with gameplay straight from a throwaway PS2 game. One would have thought the dungeons would be interesting, but they only seem to have a few rooms that they constantly swap each time, making it very repetitive.

I do wonder what the beta means in this case...
