I was told before buying the game that it would be difficult but there is a difference between just being hard, and having a combat system that will cause you to lose 30 minutes of work just because you press a wrong button. Pressing the wrong button is easy to do because the controls are so complex. The hero medals(or whatever they are called) are also ridiculous and cause you to instantly lose. The camera angle is also horrible as it constantly over adjusts and makes you run into things, which again causes you to lose. The games music however is awesome but that is the only positive i can really think of, unless you want the most infuriating experience of your life do not buy this game.

People keep shooting the game down because its so different. Since Final Fantasy XIII came out close to it, it was kinda kicked under the covers. But give it a try. The fighting style is different, and i will not deny its a challange. this is not for people who a casual and like everything being handed to you. The characters all have backgrounds, and you learn as you go. A big plus is that you can change how the three main charaters look, to look how you want. I love this game and i say people should atleast give it a try.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

I was playing through Resonance of Fate, and I stopped to wonder what the rest of the gaming community thought of it. From the reviews here on Game Stop and elsewhere, I've seen other reviewers complain about the difficulty of combat, but I had this thought: things that are *new*, new as "new and not a sequel, prequel, or having the incriminating likeness of some other game", probably will be harder to grasp at the beginning. In fact, the low ratings are the reason I'm writing this review/defense/whatever-it-is because they do not do it justice.

Resonance of Fate is a role-playing game, and just like Star Ocean The Last Hope, which was also developed by Tri-Ace, the intro battle tutorial is BRUTAL. I realize that the battle tutorial has a lot of information that will be difficult for many players to digest at the beginning. On the other hand, the first battles are simple, and they become progressively harder as you improve.

The best way to begin Resonance of Fate is to go in knowing that you will need to learn how to do something completely different. Otherwise, this is what's going to happen to you: 1) oh hey, neat cut scene; 2) the arena? oh yeah, time to kick some can; 3) holy cow! I have to read?!

I just bought the game today and have only put in a few hours but its already growing on me. I love how challenging the combat is even after you get the hang of it. So far there isnt much of a plot but I'm sure it will become clear. The combat is pretty confusing at first. I found myself getting agravated until I went to the arena and learned the tutorial. Now the combat is extremely fun. I love the fact that you technically only level up your guns but that transfers over to your overall level. I deffinately would recommend this to any of my friends that is an JRPG player.

I personally think this game is amazing. It has an exciting battle system, great graphics, three super cool main characters,and an epic world map design and concept. There are a couple of flaws, but who really cares. Stop nay saying you only seem gayer.

This game is absolutely wonderful. The visuals are stunning, the gameplay is very enjoyable and requires actual thought out planning (which the naysayers of the game fail to see). The whole hex idea of the world map is very intuitive and is one of the more original things I have seen in a long time. One qualm one may have with the game is the progression of the story mode and how long it takes to pick up. While the sound does great in complimenting the aura of the steampunk environment and each situation that arises, it is no Nobuo Uematsu. Any person that says the game is bad because it is too hard should honestly not have been playing the game in the first place. Resonance of Fate is not for the feint of heart. It requires alot of attention in and out of battle, however it is very rewarding. Please do not let the bad reviews influence your decision. The bad reviews come from people who expect a game to tell them what to do 100% of the time and do not wish to put the necessary time into learning the intricacies. Honestly ,what is a good game without a challenge? Read this review and go out and buy this great game so you can experience it for yourself.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

First off I kinda got this game late but I got it for a good price. The game is a game that is for hardcore RPG fans and this is a awesome game. The battle system is unique and it took me awhile to learn how to play it but its worth it. The story doesn't tell about itself until later on the game. The characters to me are well done and the voices are amazing, especially Vashyron because he is voiced by Nolan North (Uncharted series). In my opinion I think that this is alot better then FFXIII because I got into it more and its not as linear as FFXIII. So if you are looking for a great RPG for a cheap price (If you buy used) then this is a great game for you.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers

When I first bought this game from Gamestop, I had mixed feelings about it. The battle system is one of the most complex I've figured out in all of my gaming career, took me over an hour to figure everything out and even then I'm STILL having problems with it. It will take some time to figure out. What I like about it however is that it makes you THINK which a lot of people don't like in a video game. The storyline seems confusing at first but this is tri-ace we're dealing with and most of the games tr-ace makes don't reveal the entire plot until late in the game. All in all it is rather enjoyable and humorous. I give it a 9/10 due to the complexity of the battle system. Highly recommended for hardcore gamers who enjoy a challenge.
