Once I saw it's low scores on IGN and Gamespot I decided that I probably won't buy it. You might've just changed my mind :)
If I won the lottery, I wouldn't be one of those people who'd immediately quit their job. I'd make my boss's life a living hell for a week or two first.

Don't listen to those idiots over there. If you look closely at the user reviews at GS, you'll notice the score is a more fair average of 7.3
If you don't feel like buying it, it's definitely a rent. :)
I really do love old school RPGs but I saw this game in the store and really don't know if I should buy it. How long is it? Is it hard and easy to LVL up? and is it a challange without it being impossible or do I have to run back and fourth for hours trying to level up?
The game ships in three discs, which should take about 50 hours to complete without going on side quests. I would say the level-up system is set at a medium difficulty. At times the game's enemies and even some bosses were pretty easy to defeat. I'm about 9 hours into the game and currently at Lv 19.
I have been hearing a lot of not so great things about BD. Not that it is bad but that it's just nothing special.
When I tried the demo, I got so angry at the overall layout and presentation of the game itself since I'm studying to be a Game Designer when I graduate. (Working with my GPW team in two weeks.) How the demo showed the plot, the battle system, and the battle system's music made me want to punch someone.
I'm pretty harsh about those things since we've been taught to analyze stuff like that, but has it improved in the final version? The concept of the game is rather interesting. I must admit that. There's plenty of potential. It's just that the demo developed a strong hate inside me. I just hope that the real thing is better so that I may feel alittle better about it.
i bought this game, after a game from the store recommended it. he didnt know any decent online games, so he recommended BD, saying it was like FF and was a good RPG.
however, i did enjoy it, i sold it as soon as i finished it. i think i was about level 54 with everyone, and i absolutely annihalated the last boss. seriously, it was way too easy.
i will admit, i did power train my SP ranks, but it shouldnt be that easy.
I'm not saying it was a bad game, as i really did like it, but like i said, too easy when you get above level 50.
oh, and the achievements are basically impossible. what, 99 rank for eveything gets me 50g? yeh right! i only managed to get 55 from that game in the end.
The game is ok. I rather play FF VII any day than that game. Yeah.....

the game looks pretty good, but there's no way i can go back to the turn based fights...they're just too repetitive and stale for me. that's my worthless opinion anyways :)
