I'll make this fast since I've absolutely got to go to bed. I should have been asleep an hour ago with my level of exhaustion, but that's connected to this post.
Because Birth by Sleep is one of the best RPGs I've ever started. Yeah, I can't really say PLAYED yet because I'm not very far in. But this has incredible promise, both in terms of story and gameplay. The fighting is quick, requires intelligence and dexterity without being overly complex, and refines the action-RPG into something glorious. The story is currently poignant in a subtle manner that I thought had fled from the lands of Square Enix forever.
You know the best part of FF6? The part where you split into different parties to experience different aspects of the story? That's like the premise of this entire game.
The customization is also varied and unique and very intuitive, involving what you use the most in combat.
Also, and this won't be the game's selling point but is still awesome, any game that involves a monopoly style board game (actually it's more like Showdown Yahtzee, but I'm probably the only person on this site who knows what that is) in its leveling up of combos is a winner in my book.
SIDE NOTE: Boob ads strike again! I love this site! And no, I'm not being sarcastic. I may be the only person who likes these ads.

What, you expected me to actually comment on the bulk of your post? Unfortunately, I've never heard of the game...

It's a lot of fun; I can't put it down. And I haven't said that about a game in a long time. Even SC2 had its limits.
