A game should be judged on the game, not the conditions with which it was developed. I’ve not played it, no, I was just commenting on that bit.

I am not by any means giving it a free pass. However if it did have the manpower and funds of a God of War type game they could have developed there own engine, instead of using the unreal engine, which i think is still a blight to the gaming industry. For the number of people they had working on the project and as well as the funds they had available, it came very close to becoming a AAA title. Which shows how talented of devs they are. There's slim pickings as far as RPGs with the exception of Fallout 3 and Valkyria Chronicles and its a welcome addition to any RPG lovers collection. Have you played it yet? What are your thoughts?
