    Got a dispatch email yesterday, 1st class post apparently. When the site said 3-5 days delivery I assumed they'd dispatch it quickly by cheap post, not wait 3 days and send it more expensively. Anyway hopefully have it today or tomorrow.

    So this did indeed turn up in the post today, which goes some way to making up for Zavvi being gay about my Resi pre-order.

    Amazon!

    Just saw it and frantically placed my order completely forgetting that I had £700 worth of PC equipment I was wishfully adding to my basket one day when I was bored. Almost pooped my pants when it came up with order confirmation!

    Pissy pants.

    Finally got it through from play.com

    Bugger the profiteers and opportunists; this game should be enjoyed by all RPG fans.

    I'm a few hours in and the world is starting to open up; it's lore and somewhat confusing terms are starting to make sense.

    It's fair to say I'm enjoying this game quite a bit!

    If you aren't utterly disgusted by me please check out my videogames show at:

    Is there anywhere I can get this on 3DS at a reasonable price? Everywhere seems sold out, and it's going for stupid prices on ebay.

    Now with 80% more Cthulhu!

    Tried looking two posts up?

    Mind you, I'd still class 35 quid as silly money, especially given I still haven't completed Vesperia.

    Cubby didn't know how to turn off sigs!

    The Hut have it for 29.99 according to Hotukdeals. I wouldn't panic if you miss out, considering how many stores have had reprints and how quickly they have sold out I guarantee they'll do another run. I'm sure the same thing happened with Xenoblade Chronicles and you could pick that up for £7 over Christmas to get rid of stock.

    I agree with you on that it should all be enjoyed by RPG fans.
    I saw for £99.99 on Amazon once 0_O.

    I got my copy from Play.com as well yesterday(dispatched on the 20th) and I am really impressed so far,love the fact it got ported to the 3DS,means I can enjoy it even more and after playing OOT I can say this is getting enjoyable as well to play on a handheld.
    This my second mothership Tales game after Symphonia,looking forward to see how the storyline plays out.

    Really looking forward to when Graces come out as well(played the JPN demo =impressive and I am curious..)

    So general consensus on whether it's worth my while picking this up now in preparation for the arrival of my 3DS next month?

    @Murbal

    Well it seems to be back in stock in a few places now, but it does seem to be limited numbers again. Whether if this batch sells out they'll do another is anyone's guess I suppose?

    I guess either way it's not likely to drop below £30 anytime soon.

    It's definately worth picking up. I put 105 hours into this and am sure i will play it through a second time in a couple of years. Well worth £35.

    Can't get on with the combat in this at all. Game seems to have a decent plot, soundtrack and world but the fighting is just mash mash mash. I keep levelling up and getting new equipment but it feels just the same as before - use a special to stun and mash away - not been close to dieing yet either after 5 hours.

    there's a bit of a difficulty spike later on - you'll know where. But I totally agree, I'm not enjoying the combat at all. Am I doing it right? :p

    Nah normal is pretty easy once you complete the game if you still enjoy it try the more difficult settings they're much harder

    So, I'm about 30 hours in. It's a good game but there is a silly amount of backtracking and periods of incomprehensible story about fonons hand shit.

    The current verdict is good, but not great.

    Well, just finished it there now. Turned out to be a great game in the end and I would heartily recommend it to anyone who even slightly enjoys JRPGs.

    Took me 47 hours and there's a whole new game plus mode where you can use modifiers and stuff to change the game a bit. Won't be doing it myself because I'm trading the game to knock a few quid off a Vita next week :D

    Onto around 38 hours now and definitely feel like I'm in the final bit now (as in probably about 10 hours to go!)

    Love it loads, so far it's not quite as good as Symphonia but better than Vesperia which I absolutely loved, so high in my regards at least.

    Here's a question about a location I'm supposed to find:

    Apparently there's some large object floating in the ocean and I'm supposed to find it. The ocean is absolutely enormous and there is no clue as to where this thing is. After flying/floating around for half an hour I gave up and looked at a guide - says its the Isles of Feres or something and it's directly south of Yulia City. There's nothing there at all and the guide said to go back to Yulia City as it should reset it, but still nothing there at all.

    Anyone have any idea where I should be going? Due to get a train tomorrow evening and would like to crack on with the game but so far the last hour of my game time has been a hugely frustrating waste.

    edit: for the second time tonight in two different games, as soon as I ask for help I find what I'm looking for!

    52 hours and done! Wonderful game, anyone who has a 3DS and likes JRPGs has to get hold of a copy.
