Lost Odyssey is without the shadow of a doubt an amazing, amazing game and one of the best RPGs and video games I have ever played.

Now this game does feel downright a little archaic from time to time in this day and age, with it's usage of Random Encounters and a plotstructure very reminicent of the earlier Final Fantasy Games (earlier as in 6-10), but honestly aside from being a little iffy about the random encounters in the very beginning, this didn't bother me. Not one fucking bit. None.

And that's mainly because of this games fantastic musical score, the awesome cast of very memorable characters and, most importantly, the incredibly tender writing that shines so brightly during every single carefully crafted scenario of this game.

That's what hit me right where I live.

And that is why, despite of Lost Odysseys old-fashioned design elements, this has switfly and surely become one of my favorite games ever and the experience I have had here will be in my head for a long time to come. ... possibly forever.

... a memory never fading... fitting for Lost Odyssey.

Now all I have to do is wait for the announcement of that sequel that'll surely come...

... gonna be any moment now...
