Hopefully this will be Atlus USA's E3 announcement along with Persona 4: The Golden.

It's nice to see that the game has a proper skill tree.

Is it just me, or do the 3d models not look nearly as bad as those screenshots from the last thread made them out to be?

Oh man, so excited. In addition to all the other things, I thought the airship being on the dungeon maps was particularly interesting.

They always looked good to me, but in video they look very pretty.

Things I noticed:

- The hot-air balloon looks like a part of the main quest, unlike EO3's seafaring.
- UI for Shop and Skill Tree is much better now
- That Stalker FOE still looks goddamn scary.
- Party set is good for quickly swapping adventurers/farmers

Yeah I like this.

The site has some skill tree shots too: http://sq4.atlusnet.jp/#/SYSTEM_BATTLE_SKILLTREE

I've been wanting this since the first game.

Monkey with afro O.o

Also liking the look of the new skill tree, not that the old one was bad but this seems a tad more intuitive.

Some big damage there at the end of the trailer.

Gameplay looks as good as ever. Too bad there's no Hard mode. Maybe unlocked on a New Game+ or something.

Normal mode is being made harder, which is the reason they're adding a casual mode in the first place.

So I have a couple questions. I've always wanted to play an EO game but never gotten around to it, which is the best of the 3 on the DS? Also, is there any connecting story between the games or are they pretty standalone?

This and Tri G are the main reasons I still own a 3DS.

3>1>2, IMO.

I can't even remember the plot to any of them, to be honest. These aren't story-driven games.
