The Shrine

Figure i'll roll the dice on it, even though I hate turn based now.

Looks up my alley. If I hear good things I'll buy it up.

It's a game heavily inspired by Earthbound and Little King Story and being published by Atlus. I've been looking forward to this one for quite a while now.

Both steam and ps have it on sale for launch I believe...so itll be like 10 bucks.

Haha so I checked it out on Steam when I made my post and it wasn't purchase-able, but had an unlock time of about an hour and 15 minutes ago... I just checked again and it still cannot be purchased. I think the first step to selling any game should always be setting a price and actually enabling purchase of it.

That's interesting, because I went to purchase it last night after 12, and I could find it on the PSN (not even the coming soon section for indies).

Strange. Maybe I'll....TORRENT it

I guess I will see if it is available later today when I get home.

I AM THE ONE WHO SEEDS.

Just kidding. I finally noticed it was on sale 45 minutes ago and just finished eating so I'm going to fire it up now.

Edit: Got 25 minutes in before my screwed up sleep schedule caught up with me. Fun beginning though.

Got nearly two hours in. This game kind of borders between brilliant and super annoying. A decent enough distraction.

Its...Ok. Its too early for me to make a good assessment, but there are aspects I havent liked. Ill play it more tonight and form a more solid opinion.

$12 at launch on PSN for Plus members. I'm interested, seems like a neat Earthbound-like game. But I'll wait a few months and they'll give it to me for free...

I think this is a good game to play 1-2 hours at a time/a day. Any more than that and the annoyance of some of it will get to me.

12 bucks Canadian... So like 9 or 10 bucks US on the Nintendo Eshop.

I got the Wii U version a couple days ago, but haven't really touched it yet. I want to finish up my play through of Dragon Quest 3 before jumping into another RPG.

It's...OK. That remains my opinion. Gets a bit better once you understand some of the "hidden" mechanics, but the story and gameplay are both below average (and yes, at times annoying).

I also played rollers of the realm, which also earns a "meh" from me. Atlus backed games are always dice rolls, so Im not surprised.
