From the developers of the critically acclaimed Dark Cloud series and Rogue Galaxy, Level-5 once again delivers an unparalleled role-playing game experience with the introduction of the first true Role-Playing Game (RPG) on PS3, White Knight Chronicles. With its highly anticipated North American release, White Knight Chronicles provides RPG fans with visually stunning backdrops, a unique battle system, and robust online gameplay rooted in an epic adventure. Throughout the game players will have the opportunity to explore the massive world of White Knight Chronicles, experiencing a medieval-like fantasy where the hero is able to engage in combat as the larger-than-life White Knight. Players will be able to custom create their own avatar and enter in a deep single player campaign or join a real-time online multiplayer quest with up to four others. Six different characters will be available to control in the game, each colorfully brought to life within highly detailed environments. In addition to the compelling storyline, gamers will have access to dozens of online quests, and create custom weapons and items.
This game was the main reason I signed up for gameaccess. I was unsure whether it was worth 70 bucks for a game touted to be a mix between Monster Hunter and FFXI. I finished story mode, which was decent, and dabbled around online along the way. Online doesn't get very engaging until the endgame, or so I heard. I reached halfway (GR6) which gave me an idea of how the rest would be like. Didn't wanna spend too long grinding though. Perhaps I'll buy the sequel...
7/10
The offline is pretty good, but by now though the online is rough, not too many people kickin around like there used to be when this came out, but still very playable for the offline.
