    Great game, must have for any RPG fan!

    Gameplay:

    The Last Remnant is a great game, and well worth the money. The story is very engaging and well thought out. The combat system is different from normal RPG's as well. The combat keeps you involved in the game so you're not just sitting there watching. There is an option though to turn combat to all automatic if you wish. You have the ability to make and customize weapons in the game as well, this is a nice touch.

    Graphics:

    The graphics in The Last Remnant are outstanding if you have a PC that can run it at the high setting. I have mine turned all the way up, and have had no issues with texture popping or anything. I don't have a monster rig either, I have a AMD 5000+ , a Gforce 8600 GT 512mb, and 3 gigs or ram, nothing special, and it ran this game very nicely. The only issue I have is with the load times. If there wasn't a load screen every 30 seconds I would have rated this game a 5.

    Sound:

    The sounds in the game are quite pleasing, they don't get respective quickly and sound good while doing major battles.

    Replay Value:

    The replay value is very high, with the ability to hire hundreds of different people to join your party, and countless ways to progress your party, the replay value is amazing.

    Recommend ? :

    I would recommend this to anyone, fan or not of RPG games. This game will be on my PC for a long time to come. I have been playing for about 40 hours and still have not finished the game. With all the side quest and things to do, you will be kept busy for many, many hours ahead.

      A rather satisfying game for those with Job-like patience 0

      The Last Remnant represents Square Enix's first major foray into the saturated PC RPG market that is home to western classics like Planescape Torment, the Baldur's Gate series, IceWind Dale series, etc. As such, it was unsurprising that they opted for a faster-paced combat system in their latest JRPG. The end result is a game that will most likely frustrate hardcore fans of either genre, but will delight those with an open mind and patience in spades. The PC port is a much more serviceable itera...

      Not exactly exhilarating 0

      The first thing I would say about this game is that it just didn't do it for me in terms of immersion and general entertainment. The story progressed slowly with some painfully bad voice acting and dialog, the strategic turn-based combat system made fights seem complicated and drawn out, the "leveling"/stats system was terribly pointless.The Last Remnant starts off relatively quickly throwing the player into a skirmish between 20 or so characters. The initial impression this left was that the ba...
