I'm playing.
I've been really surprised because, well. It's great! If you've played YS: Oath in Felghana it keeps the same graphics style as that.
The battle system is pretty well done too, and makes for some challenging battles at times because enemies can surprise you with attacks and bonuses too them.
I'm only 10 hours in right now and the story has somewhat started taking off to be more interesting.
What I like is that you can go almost anywhere you want within reason, and you get tons of sidequests that you can do that kills time and makes it fun to ignore the main story sometimes.
Great game, worth the purchase.

Utterly fantastic, but the ending has me wanting to play the sequel SO BAD now. Anything you want to know? I can probably try to write up some kind of review for it if you'd like.

Anything you can tell me would be great, and definitly! If you write up a review and pop it in the review section we will also tweet it to get some exposure if youd like. How long was it? How was the music and the dungeons/environments, was there an overworld? Just basic stuff would be great!

Up in the review section. Whew, took me well over an hour to do. If people like it. I might do more in the future and maybe spend more time on them to better get my thoughts across as well. I probably missed some small thing here or there.

Will do. I'm working on another game right now, but don't know how long it will take. (Hopefully not too long) My input will probably slow down a little once I go back to school. But when I do go back to school my reviews will probably increase quality wise as I'm going to be an English major But yeah, Trails in the Sky was great.

Anything from Falcom is usually great. I haven't gotten it yet, but I plan to get the whole series if I do.

Im still playing it and its pretty awesome.
The only issue I have though and alot of these newer jrpgs seem to do this, but there tends to be alot of long winded banters about frivolous stuff. I dont mind little funny things here and there but man sometimes youll be watching a scene where they argue about cupcakes for 15 minutes, that didnt happen but its just an example.
But its a great game.

Really? There's tons of stuff in the game. But pretty much everything that you HAD to do text wise was either A) Building Character Relationships which was VERY important for this game especially for how things will turn out or B) Advance plot. Which well, is pretty necessary and finally C) World building. Establishing the world, it's history, different things.
Anything else that was unnecessary was always regulated to optional stuff IMO.

Is it different from the other PSP Legend of Heroes games? I played the first one and found the battle system annoying... having to move around to line up in front of the enemy you want to hit.

From what I've heard it's different. Hit up the review section and check out my review of the game to see the battle system explained.

I think I've resigned myself to the possibility that future jrpg gaming will be mostly on the handhelds. So I'm now going to catch up on them. I intend to pick up this game possibly next paycheck.

Handheld rpg gaming is through the roof, it really is....i find myself totally attached to my handhelds. I just want the 3DS to finally put out a solid rpg.

There's another rpg coming out in August for the 3DS. Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked.
Unfortunately most of the other notable rpgs are all coming out next year. Tales of the Abyss got pushed back to January.

Wrong Thread?
If you're just talking 3DS releases. Yeah, there's nothing notable. But if you're talking all handhelds. Persona 2: Innocent Sin comes out soon. That's going to be awesome.
