    Default opinion of star ocean

    Well personally I like the menu system, graphics and storey line. The skills system is a bit confusing but I think that ownz too.

    Only thing I dont like that I can think about is the battle system, its annoying. If only they had kept the system from Tales of Phantasia it would be the perfect game.

    unless someone can convince me the battle system is actualy really good and tells me a way to use it well :p

    I thought the battle system in ToP was horrible personally... The PSX version's was much better though

    But yeah, I played a lot of Star Ocean back when it was only partially translated, but it was a lot of fun I've just started again with the fully translated version.

    to be perfectly honest, i am not really too fond of it.. i built it up far too much before playing it and now i'm disappointed.. i really can't play a game taht disappoints me.. even if it WAS my fault, i can't do it.. the battle system is annoying, and the skills thing is confusing and forgettable.. the story didn't even grab me and kick me in the nuts, like my friend said it would.. i was just overall bored by the game.. oh and teh super nintendo graphics thing is kinda annoying now.. i am waiting for star ocean 3 to come out but star ocean 2 wasn't up to my ideals..

    If you use a controller to play it, the TOP batle system ownz, its just too much fun. Its a shame star ocean didnt use it in my opinion. Thats all

    Tales of phantasia 0wnz .

    Anyway, SO is a great lame, would be the 2nd best game ever as far as I'm concerned, closely behind Tales of Phantasia.

    Hey, I didn't say I didn't love Tales of Phantasia I just didn't like the battle system I liked the system for the PSX remake though, it was somewhat more balanced
