I did a search and could not find a topic on it, so please close it if it is indeed double.

I just thought I'd post this review, since it gives a good idea on how hawt this game is. ;]

Bebpo's actually a spot-on RPG reviewer, and he's not biased in any way. I know him.

If Bebpo says this game's the ****, then this game's the ****. Cool

Yep, Bebpo is quite good when it comes to RPGs.

I don't doubt that this game is AAA calibre.

Yay! Basically all good things to say! :]

I seriously hope they take care of the loading and the lag. o.o They did get a year to localize after all. Or *almost* a year.

Localization teams usually only preoccupy themselves with translations and presentation changes due to licensing. So they only really skim the surface of the game when they change things. I doubt they'd have someone fix a bunch of bugs like that, but it would be really awesome if they did.

The developers actually have to go back and edit the dialogue and voice work back into the game. They aren't absent when it comes to the localization process.

Further, this game is coming with extras. Since they're spending extra development time to add stuff. They could also work on optimization to further improve the game's loading times.

I honestly never thought they were that bad. They may take a bit long but they're tolerable, at the very least. You get used to them.
