Radiata Stories is basically a game where you play as Jack Russell. And unfortunately he's all you can use. There's pretty much a lot of characters to recruit and train (a la Suikoden). But thats where the similarities end. You dont need to collect all of them which come to a close 180 characters both human and fairy. Gameplay's an action RPG. some "job" where you get to earn money and experience, a bonus dungeon and several optional bosses to slay. Item collecting is not possible since theres a cap in how much items you can have. Of course ou can collect the armor Jack wears since the armor sets change his appearance. Music wise the game's mostly jazz and catchy tunes may get you into it, but after a while it gets tedious and you might as well turn something else on. Though some people can get turned off in the beginning since you start in a castle and it is quite big, considering the same and how Jack runs you can get prettty impatient. But after the castle phase its pretty much a breeze and you can go on with the main story which has 2 sides and endings to chose from. Other than the fact that Radiata Stories has some funny dialogue, the game really does lack in the fact that you only use Jack and no one else. Just him. The characters you get, you cant use them at all but they can be in your battle party as support. Thats it. so turn around if you dont want that. In the end, Radiata Stories should keep you busy for a while. If you can be patient enough in the beginning and those tunes dont get your ears tired. haha.
