Saw this game in stores and looks like a good RPG. Anyone here play it?
 
What?! Damn, no where local here has it. And for RPG's, it usually means good. Like Tales of the Abyss 3D, another ridiculously hard game to find, and that came out this year, and on the 3DS.
 
I could, but I also like having hard copies of certain games. Those games are usually the hard to find games. Also, if they have copies, send one over here. I can't find a damn copy in a 30 mile radius.
 
Played it, it was pretty cool, a large number of characters. I liked the idea of having 2 main storylines in one gameplay and having to time travel through both to move on with each of them. You can normally concentrate on one storyline but at some point you will reach a dead end and will need to pass through a certain event in the storyline 2 to be able to continue story one.

The choices you make in each storyline also affect your progression, some of them usually ending up in a Game Over situation (you can still continue the game normally by traveling back in time), though even those are necessary for 100% completion.

Another thing i liked was the secret skills scattered around and that you can miss if you don't pay attention. I didn't really enjoy the battle system but it wasn't bad enough to make me dislike it either.

Its not in the Tales of Series.
Confusing with Tales of Phantasia maybe? I also loved it for its time travel system.

Radiant Historia is different though, you can only time travel between events you've already been through.
For example if upon reaching Event 10 you realize that you should have saved someone in Event 7 to get a special item or move on with the story you can go back in time to Event 7 and save the person.

The way this game's story branches kind of reminds me of the old RPG books i used to play :P

so kind of like chrono trigger or FF 13-2.
 
I'd say medium difficulty, you die easily if you don't pay attention and level up properly. You also have to change your strategy throughout the game since you constantly get new characters or have to let some of yours go for a while for some reason.
