whats ash again? i cant see the videos

Wes · Sep 19, 2007

Hot!!

Combat looks pretty darn good I thought.

fallengorn · Sep 19, 2007

Wow, looking pretty good.

Magicpaint · Sep 19, 2007

Too short, but looking good.

Baron Doggystyle von Woof · Sep 19, 2007

thanks for the videos. Battle looks so good!

mutsu · Sep 19, 2007

Combat looks good... but the last thing I need is another slow combat RPG.

Smiles and Cries · Sep 19, 2007

I never thought anyone would create anything like this when the DS came out. This is the little machine that could. Hugs my DS Lite

Gattsu25 · Sep 19, 2007

HOLY SHIT!! It's ASH!!!!

Smiles n Cries: The DS was made for these types of games IMO. The combat *is waaaay too slow* for me, however

Jcgamer60 · Sep 19, 2007

I wish this wasn't an SRPG and you were able to move freely around the map.

Eh, doesn't look like it's for me. And why do female characters have to wear such skimpy clothing? Again, it's just a meaningless distraction.

flipping_heck · Sep 19, 2007

Interesting, shaping up very nicely indeed

akachan ningen · Sep 19, 2007

meh. The CG art looked too good. The actual graphics never had a chance. It looks like it'll be fun, but the graphics lack impact.

yeah I know thats why Nintendo made it... but its just so great to see devs just doing it

I hope the Wii will be at this pace in a year when devs stop throwing cash-ins and really really use it for what it was created for

ratcliffja · Sep 19, 2007

Yeah I didn't know this was an SRPG. That's pretty disappointing.

It comes out in 2 weeks....

Kiriku · Sep 19, 2007

Looks great! But I have to agree the combat looks kind of slow. :/ I assume you'll be able to skip the battle animations at least, though.

Aeana · Sep 19, 2007

It does look a little stiff. I expected a bit more animation in the battle screen.

Not a deal-breaker, by any means, though.

Tayo · Sep 19, 2007

well, the CS seems to be a bit static,like RPG-maker made...the CD is awesome.

solarplexus · Sep 19, 2007

Takuan · Sep 19, 2007

Animates a lot better than I was expecting. Me rikey vely much!

Mr. Pointy · Sep 19, 2007

Very fucking nice.

true Gek · Sep 19, 2007

YES!!! It has a lot of strategy!!!

D-X · Sep 19, 2007

AlucarD.eq · Sep 19, 2007

This can be a really nice game.. Any hopes to get a Wii-port? lol

Segata Sanshiro · Sep 19, 2007

pretty much, a little disappointing but I still want it.

The battles seem needlessly complex compared to Fire Emblem due to the party vs party mechanic. They should have made it like Ogre Battle IMO. If it was only one on one with limited options they could have made it so the top screen shows battles happening as you move your other characters into position for the next attack.

The one thing that really stood out to me aside from the nice GUI was the music, which sounds really good. Who's the composer again?

Saoh · Sep 19, 2007

wow, it looks good but the combat is a bit too slow.

Haunted · Sep 19, 2007

Looking even better in motion. The combat one was awesome.

lol at Peacock.

John Harker · Sep 19, 2007

So, Matsuno directing the Wii version, developed by Monolith Soft, overseen by Mistwalker?

Sakimoto.

vareon · Sep 19, 2007

Sakimoto is composing the music, then it's +1.

ilikeme · Sep 19, 2007

Looks stiff and slow.

Mistwalker bunch up awesome people, just to create 'good' products.

Zaraki_Kenpachi · Sep 19, 2007

I wish the videos were longer but they look really nice from what I saw. My interest keeps growing for this game.

O and is there a prospective release time for this?

mambadragon · Sep 19, 2007

was I the only one expecting some creepy FF12 fan videos?

Aurora · Sep 19, 2007

Oh my, it's ASH. And it looks so good.

Duane Cunningham · Sep 19, 2007

Remember, for those of you who think the combat may be slow that that long animation is probably a "limit break" type move that won't necessarily be used every turn. That's my guess anyway... it was the last choice on the menu.

Dascu · Sep 19, 2007

Most-wanted DS game after Zelda PH. Keep it coming Mistwalker.

I think the slow combat thing has more to do with the stylus movement controls - that, and the fact that there are 4 or 5 parties of 3 characters each with about 10 different battle options which they use on one (or more) of the enemy party which usually has more than one monster in it.

dakmien · Sep 19, 2007

ASS videos?? where???

Wait.
Why did I think ASH = SRPG?
Turn based hotness, yes?

PolyGone · Sep 19, 2007

whoa, this comes out in a fortnight in Japan!

ethelred · Sep 19, 2007

Holy crap, finally! We've been waiting for this forever. And... it's worth it! The game looks fantastic.

Teasel · Sep 19, 2007
