Lost Odyssey 2007

Is it still worth playing?

Mistwalker's role playing game for the Xbox 360, released in 2007 in Japan and 2008 in the West. Kaim, a 1,000 year old immortal who has lost his memory, investigates a meteor shower that kills everyone around him and the true purpose of the immortals. Battles are turn based and random, with a party of up to five, and front and back rows separated by a Guard Condition meter that drops as the front row takes damage. In the Aim Ring system you press a button in time with a targeting ring to raise damage, and a perfect press triggers the effects of the ring you have equipped. Immortals do not learn skills by leveling up but by equipping accessories or linking with mortal party members, within limited skill slots. Timing a ring press on every attack still keeps each turn something you do and not just choose.
