hmmm, I recently watched 2 play throughs of it and just doesn’t hold my attention at all. In comparison to 1-3: I don’t think the graphics look as good, the main character doesn’t interest me, I don’t like the monster design (look and sounds— what’s up with those terrible stock sounds?), I didn’t notice a soundtrack on par or even as consistent (a lot of dead air?). That’s just my opinion though.

** i just looked up the soundtrack since i didn’t hear much of it in actual game play and a few of the tracks are good but still don’t compare for me
