If you own a PS3 then you should own Ni No Kuni.

June 23, 2015

Color: Playstation 3Verified Purchase

80+ hours in and I just completed the game...only to find that there is even more to do after the game is over! To think that I almost didn't even bother with it.

The first hour of Ni No Kuni is ridiculous. Seriously. When you're first introduced to your companion Drippy you're going to be sitting, jaw agape, at how cruel he sounds. The way events unfold is swift, jarring, and emotional. I tried to put that aside in order to enjoy the gameplay mechanics, surely they would be better? Then when the battle system was introduced, it just wasn't what I was expecting. What a massive letdown. So I set it aside, played through a few other games, waiting to get into an RPG mood again, then finally gave it another shot.

I love the Studio Ghibli style, and I'm sure that is one of the major draws for people checking out this particular game, so my initial disappointment was greater than it would have been for any other game. I WANTED this to be great and for my first impression to be so bad really took the wind out of me. Loading it up again I was prepared for an average-at-best product...but boy, was I wrong.

The alternate reality established in Ni No Kuni is just so...bluntly honest. Drippy is not the cute little companion you expect, he says things that cut right to the heart of whoever he is talking to, and manages to emotionally invest you in the various characters you meet because you sympathize with their plights. Somehow, Drippy's worst quality is what makes him such an amazing character. It is like he can't help but see the world for what it really is, all illusion aside, and that makes everyone he interacts with feel all the more real.

Oliver (the main character) is almost the polar opposite of Drippy, he is careful with everything he says, kind to everyone he meets, and sees the best even in the worst of people. Everyone from your allies to your enemies have very real, very complex, and sometimes astonishingly warped motivation for being the way they are. You feel incredibly involved in the world, like your actions really are making a difference to the citizens of each town. One of the main sidequests of the game is to heal the broken hearts of everyone who has come to be overwhelmed by it's power. The very idea of being able to help someone with their broken heart is very inspiring and the detail that went into telling the story of each broken heart is surprisingly rich.

It may take a little while for the charms of Ni No Kuni to envelop you but once they do, you'll be absolutely hooked. For one, the art style is the kind that makes your inner little kid smile. You collect numerous animal/robot/undead/other companions on your journey, being able to switch between them at will as you seek to unravel the mysteries of a strange new world. At first the battle system isn't all that spectacular but once you gain control of more creatures the intuitiveness of the system really starts to shine. You can choose any variety of play styles based on which creatures you control and you eventually grow very attached to your favorites, especially when you find that it may be time to switch them out for a stronger one. You don't have to though, you can use the same creatures for the entire game, leveling them up from relatively weak to exceptionally strong if that is what you choose.

The amount of care that went into the details of locations, your interactions with other people, and the vast lore that exists in-game is unheard of. Ni No Kuni allows you to free roam from almost the very beginning, finding buried treasures, gaining new allies, and jumping into new locations you have no hope of surviving in to try to grab some higher level items early on. The game is perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of hand holding before unleashing you on the greater world. Everything feels alive and you feel more alive as you experience it.

After many weeks of play, I can most certainly say that anyone who bought this game at full price definitely got their money's worth. For the rest of us who are buying it at 1/3rd that cost, we're getting the deal of the century. If you're a fan of RPGs, if you're a fan of Studio Ghibli movies, if you're even just a fan of a good story, you will want this game. I rarely ever gush when I write reviews, mainly because those sorts of reviews tend to not sound very genuine, but I assure you that I do it with good reason. If you own a PS3 then you should own Ni No Kuni.

Level 5 does it once again!

July 13, 2016

Color: Playstation 3Verified Purchase

I have been patiently waiting for a PS3 title by this software developer and animation team. This title does not disappoint.

Animation - It features absolutely breathtaking animation that appeals to all ages.

Music and Soundtrack - It has a wonderful full sound to it. It features full orchestra pieces of music. This makes it feel like you are inside a movie.

Gameplay - I have just begun to play the game but thus far the gameplay is fairly straightforward and very creative. The in-game guide( in the persona of Drippy the hero's sidekick) gives you a full and complete explanation of all game mechanics.

I absolutely love all games that Level 5 has done. You will will really appreciate this title if you enjoyed Dragon Quest VIII. This title features the same rich animation, sound, and gameplay as its predecessor. I also enjoyed such Level 5 titles as Dark Cloud 1 and 2 and Rogue Galaxy. Level 5 isn't necessarily a prolific game maker but each title it puts out is a quality well done masterpiece. You are sure to truly enjoy this title!

The Game That Finally Made Me Go Out & Get a PS3

February 22, 2015

Color: Playstation 3Verified Purchase

I came across this game by accident- I won't explain how, but I will say this- I finally found a game that's not a fighter that pushed me towards finally buying a PS3-even though it's late in the console's life.

While I'm not a big fan of RPGs (Western or Japanese), when I do find one I like, I will play it to the end.

& this game is one of them. Ni No Kuni ("2nd Country" in Japanese) is a wonderful RPG. Great graphics with amazing animation provided by Studio Ghibli (of "Spirited Away" fame). The English voice acting is surprisingly well done, thought I wish there were more of them. (BTW you can set the voices to Japanese if you wish so).

While it does takes a while for the game to start (with the 30+ minute long animated opening) Once the game does start, it becoming very exciting to play. I really love the game's battle system thought it takes a while to get used to it. It's a combination of both real time & turn based. I also love the idea of familars-being able to tame/capture creatures & train them. This part of the game reminds me a bit of Pokemon-I'm one of the small number of people who never played a Pokemon game. (Hopefully Nintendo is taking notes from this game for the next time they make a home console Pokemon game).

As a late comer to the PS3, I needed a game that I won't beat in one setting & I found it in this game. I'm very impressed with Ni No Kuni overall- from the stunning scenery, to the big world to explore, to even the game's soundtrack. I haven't played a JRPG like this since Dragon Quest VIII. Not surprisingly, both games were developed by the same company- Level 5. If you'll also a late-comer to the PS3, be sure to check this out; you won't be disappointed.
