Can’t wait for Dragon Quest XII The Flames of Fate.
Star Ocean The Divine Force has one of the uglyest protagonist I’ve ever seen. The other party members look legit, but the protagonist look’s like he’s got an anime wig. I hope Star Ocean The Divine Force gets some cosmetic dlc for custom characters. Although besides the pre-order dlc Star Ocean 5 never got any additional content. The excuse they used was “additional content doesn’t sell good outside of a Japanese marketplace” As appose to every other game that got additional content.
The Divine Force is definitely worth it, just the protagonist is fugly even for anime standards.
