As For Wild ARMs...
As you know, I've been playing Wild ARMs 3 recently, a game I almost never bought because of the exact reason I bought it in th end: It's a western RPG. The battle system is a lot like Dragon Quest, but has many different aspects (many of which I like), and it's officially my 4th favorite game of all time. As I contemplated this, I wondered about WA4 and WA5...after looking at a couple of videos, I can safely say that I'm NOT going to get 4 or 5, though I might get 5 for one reason, and I'll explain it later.
Reasons I won't get 4 or 5:
1) The HEX battle system...that was the wrong way for the series to go in my opinion.
2) The voice acting is ATROCIOUS! Except for Dean's from WA5 (give you a couple of guesses who his VA is, and that'll tell you why he sounds so damn good).
3) XSEED now mans the production and publishing of the WA series (FYI, they helped make Shadow Hearts 3). This is only a minor reason and it may be overlooked.
I might get 5, but only by sheer speculation of the game itself, and Dean has something to do with it, too.
I'll be more than happy to get my hands on the first two, though. I might put a smaller version of this rant on my YouTube account sometime.
