Should I Give Inazuma Eleven Another Try?

With localization confirmed for Inazuma Eleven Ares, I’ve once again been thinking about the series.

A couple years ago, I included Inazuma Eleven on a list of games I wish I loved. When I think about it, it still sounds like the sort of game I would enjoy.

I love JRPGs and story-driven games, and I enjoy games by Level-5. Inazuma Eleven seems like a natural fit, even though I’m not a big fan of sports and sports games.

When I tried Inazuma Eleven, I enjoyed it right up until the soccer matches became more prominent. I can’t remember if I was bad at them or if I just didn’t find them fun, but they were the reason I quit playing the game despite liking the rest of the content I’d seen.

So I put it aside. But from time to time I see it recommended for RPG fans, and that gets me wondering about it again.

With Inazuma Eleven Ares coming to the west next year, should I give the game I have another try? Is there anything I should keep in mind about the gameplay that might help?

(And while we’re at it, I keep wondering if I should give Okami another try, too…)
