    Am I the only one that feels like they really poorly marketed that game? I don’t recall seeing any sort of ads or promotions for it other than what they showed during the game shows/company presentations.

    It really felt like you wouldn’t have known about it unless you were looking for it.

      I think the problem is that its an average action game at best, and they also alienated fans of the turn based/party-based jRPG genre. So its a double-whammy of meh.

      I heard about it before release… albeit I heard from a friend that I play XIV with, so that’s certainly a selection bias.
