Looking for a game

[Helianus]

Hi guys, first of all I am sorry if this kind of post doesn't belong here. I've been googling all over the internet to find a place where I could ask for help and I ended up here.

I'm trying to find games that would meet certain criteria. I have troubles searching them on the internet since I don't know how to define the search parameters.

So if you willing to help me the game I'm trying to find should be very similiar to games such as:
Ar Tonelico 2 (PS2)
Riviera: The Promised Land (GB:A)

The platform is irrelevant. Basically the game should be/has:
Turn-based RPG
Multiple-level attacks, EX-attack
Focused on the relationships between the male hero and female party-members (talks, choosing between actions that (dis)pleases certaincharacter)
Party consists of small number of characters - each with distinctive personality
Anime style
Weapons/Armour/Accessories are equipable by particular characters OR they can be used by all characters, however they won't be able to use the full potential of the item


I don't know how else would I describe this limited area of RPGs, but I'd be very glad and very grateful to anybody who might help me.

Sincerely,
Helianus

Hmm, off the top of my head I could recommend Last Remnant. It meets most of your criteria but maybe the male and female relationship. The great story makes up for it.

The battle system is turned based, and you can control multiple parties at once. There is a big strategic aspect about it by how you engage the enemy. Since you have multiple parties, you can Flank an enemy party and get an attack advantage. It's kind of complex and takes a while to learn. It's not like any other battle system I've ever played, but I think they pulled it off well.

Another thing I suppose it doesn't have it equipable weapons and armor to your party members. It does it automatically, they will ask for the weapon or armor, or maybe an item to upgrade their items. You can deny them or let them have it.

The story for me was the best part about the game, it was really interesting and just got better and better. Tons of side quest apart from the main quest as well. It's a 2 disc game, so it's quite long. It's a 360 exclusive, but I think it's released fro PC now as well. You won't be able to find it for PS3 or wii though.

It doesn't really fit all your standards, but if you can't find anything better, I'd give a look into this game.

Howabout Persona 3 and 4?

Howabout Persona 3 and 4?
Thank you very much. These seem to be games I was looking for. If you happen to think of any other game like these, please let me know.

Trunks: It's not exactly what I was hoping for but it surely does look alluring. I might try it one day. Thank you too.

The Persona games are a great recommendation, I too would suggest those. I've never heard of Ar Tonelico 2 but after looking it up on IGN I really want to play it. It looks pretty cool.

Well, Ar Tonelico is a NIS game and Riviera is an Atlus game, so why not look at other games from them? They might not be exactly the same, but i'm sure you'll enjoy them. For example Catherine is about a man who's torn between 2 girls and he has nightmares because of it, during the day it's more of a dating sim type thing where you interact with the girls and your friends, and at night you're trying to solve puzzles in your nightmares. Nocturne is also a great game, but its difficult and there's no interpersonal relationships. Btw, the games I suggested earlier are Atlus games.

Or, howabout Dragon Age? It's not really a game that fits this criteria, but it's a fun game nonetheless, and you can have a threesome with 2 other girls (even better if your character is a girl)
