This has a whole lot of potential because these are some of the best RPG factories on the planet not named Square Enix, so this could be huge. I like the idea and I hope that more companies do this type of thing to cut down on development costs, which hopefully turns out a great product. The only thing that worries me is the old adage, “too many cooks in the kitchen”. I hope it’s good, I’ve never heard of this and it’s out today, so I guess we’ll see in the next few days.
So, the press release was corrected to state that the game is being released in May not March. They’ve got about two months to polish this bad boy up for the U.S.
