There's a difference between "practically guaranteed" and guaranteed.
Still, guess no harm in it. Hope it comes over.

"Obama, we petition you to use your position as commander-and-chief of the Army to force Square Enix USA into localizing Bravely Default under gunpoint."

Well, didn't they mention that it was in the process of localization ages ago in some book? I'm guessing it hasn't been released because unlike how the PSP is still thriving in Japan, it's been dead here for a while?
Anyway, petitions are pretty lame and don't really work at such low numbers.

I think if Namco can bring Project X Zone here, Square-Enix has very little excuse on this.

The title change got me into this thread. :lol
Art looks really good, as do those amazing summons/attacks/whatever. That jet liner, holy crap. A pity there's basically no chance it'll get brought over.

I know it's apples and oranges to some degree, but that's my thinking on the matter, as well.
I still can't believe PxZ is happening.
I think forcing this "at gunpoint" might send the wrong message, in this post-Sandy Hook / videogames under attack sort of era.
They'll only respond if we get 100k signatures, though. :\
Actually the stages are the art pics
Essentially there is not art for this game, it is all in game graphics
Which art?
This image is how the area looks in game. Straight up. It's so fantastic if you turn 3D on and get the layers, too. It's such a cool effect to have backgrounds that look like 2D hand drawn images, but they're actually 3D.

Damn. I did not know that.
Indeed, i was like that too
When i realized the maps actually zoom out in spots ( and when you are idle i think) and are the exact art pics posted, i was blown away
If you add the 3D effect and 3D mapping of stages, i think this will be one of the most unique experiences i have had in gaming
Also that makes me wonder where the comparissons to 4 heroes of light come from
But the art is in the game...

Really shocked that this game hasn't been localized.

Yeah, but this is Squeenix we're talking about here...
Sure, but the expected sales of Sonic would be far less than for an epic masterpiece like Bravely Default
Which is also a 70 hour behemoth from what i read
Also this is a unique game, with unique art that cant be found anywhere else, while Sonic is a similar more of the same game for like 20 years now
I dont think there is a comparisson there

Haha, 1,000 signatures.
That said, SE if you're reading this, I want this game very badly and will buy it day one, and will also convince my two 3ds owning coworkers to do the same.

Does anyone know how the game's plot is? From an FFXIII to Xenogears scale, where does it fall?
Also, WTF are they holding back for exactly? Holding up Type-0's US release I sorta understand since Vita's not exactly the best performing platform in the west at the moment. I just don't get it with Bravely Default though. What, does it need to have Lightning shoved in it and be renamed to Toriyama's Waifu DDD for it to freaking see light of day?

In the west? Theatrhythm yes, KH3D no.
Here is the unboxing of the special edition, which is very cool

Hopefully we get a similar treatment

If they do release it here, I definitely hope they have the equivalent. That shit is classy looking on a shelf. Artbook is great as well.
Yeah but it's Bamco we're talking about here...

I really want this game, and I'm not even a big JRPG fan.
Do we know why Square passed on a bunch of DS games last gen but virtually everything for PSP was localized? Was it the cartridge vs. UMD costs? I've made my peace with Bravely Default never being localized, but I was going to apply the reasoning that Square never touches things that only do Atlus/XSEED numbers until I remembered that awesome streak of PSP games in 2011.

They only had high profile games for the PSP. They had many more games for the DS but some of those were rather obscure (Nameless Game 1 and 2) or hard to localise (Sigma Harmonics with many of its interface and art designed for Japanese script) or just not very good (Blood of Bahamut).

Some of the PSP games were from a contract made with Sony.
I suppose it is still in the making and at some point will arrive, maybe for PS4
But Bravely Default is different case, we know that is not coming to US/Europe nor it is confirmed

This was the game I was going to buy a 3DS for.
Still haven't bought a 3DS.
Maybe Nintendo ought to talk to Square-Enix about it.

I'm sure she's happy to sign the petition, and really in life, what's more helpful than that?

That would be missing the game's 3D effect, which for this game is a large part of its appeal for me
BD's soundtrack is excellent.
The story's written by the Steins;Gate writer so it should be good.
As for the second part, we don't know if anything is holding them back at all. I mean it only came out a few months ago. Soul Hackers took like 5-6 months to confirm. PxZ was confirmed faster though. Still, with the producer already interested in localizing it, the game's success, and that a lot of people are noticeably interested (the top most asked for game along with Type-0 in the SE Members 2013 games thread), I'm not very worried about its localization. Type-0 is a different case entirely.

I signed the petition, and I'm sure Square Enix will see it, and totally bring this game overseas!

The cynic in me says it won't help, so now I'm twice is depressed after having something I'll never get waved in my face. The optimist in me says it will help, but she's not making the wait any easier. Either way, this sense of uncertainty is not fun.
