Helps if you don't put links into spoiler boxes unnecessarily - they're not clickable, and copying and pasting them into a new browser window is a pain the arse.

That's better. :p

...Animal girls? Ruddy Neko-girls, more like. I'd have expected better from the usually Furry-friendly Shining world if it didn't already seem to be dragging its heels through bog standard anime clichés so much lately.

**cringes at the girl wearing bunny ears**

Some very cool-looking enemies, though.

This is certainly not relevant to my interests.

I'd love to play this, actually. Looks a bit like Phantasy Star Online/Monster Hunter but through a (post-Camelot) Shining lens. And there's nothing wrong with that.

Yeah, it looks like a fun little game. My main problem is the use of "Force" in the title of a non-Tactical RPG, but all told, if this got a Wii port with a Western release, I'd probably buy it.

The big thought that springs to mind is that despite the great deal of dislike going towards this game in terms of it being part of the Shining series, I recall that back in the day some of us liked the idea of a Golden Axe-esque Shining game, where players could choose from a selection of Max's Force and play through a sort of side-scrolling version of SHF1. Kinda like Guardian Heroes.

Shame this is done in this fairly bland new style which feels all too generic to me. How I yearn for Tamaki-san to snatch the reigns of the art & design teams and take these character artists to school.
