[Jigsaw]

looks totally like demons souls,famitsu leaks can't come soon enough

[jiggle]

must be ueda's next game lolol

[Sammy Samusu]

Apparently it's a game by Inafune and Marvelous AQL.

[Elginer]

It seems this is Inafune's Vita game and Marvelous is deving

[toleoring]

shinibi's twitter:

Inafune game confirmed. Developer:Marvelous AQL



edit: beaten

[Spiegel]

Inafune, Marvelous AQL, Mitsuda

[duckroll]

Planning/Development: Keiji Inafune
Development: Marvelous AQL
Music: Yasunori Mitsuda, Wataru Hokoyama

If I had to guess I would say what is left of Feel Plus is making this.

[LiquidMetal14]

MITSUDA

Personally, I am now really excited for this.

[Spiegel]

開発、企画、否船 開発、マーベラス 制作、プロデュース、SCEJ、本村、鳥山 音楽、光田、鋒山 今冬、１～４人、アドホック、wifi 犠牲と代償が魔法の源、口から背骨抜いてエクスカリバーとか、血？、骨、目玉が武器、ちょいグロ 大きな力は大きな犠牲 モンスターは闇に落ちた人間、ざんしんなこんせぷとですな

This was leaked 10 hours ago on 2ch. Mitsuda, Hokoyama, Inafune and AQL are now confirmed

[duckroll]

Unless they all left, there are a bunch of Shadow Hearts guys at Feel Plus, including the art director who worked on Lost Odyssey. They're probably the most likely suspects out of the three merged teams (Artoon, Cavia, Feel Plus).

Visually it could easily be mistaken for a Souls game, you know, how it looks. Gameplay was obviously different. We really won't know for certain until we get real information though.

Gameplay and artistically: It looks nothing like Demon's Souls. Sorry. You both need to play more De/Dark Souls, IMO to see what I mean.

Not edited to add: Oh, Inafucking? Hype ----------------- Vita is doomed, won't buy, etc. etc. etc.

And just like that Japan giveth, Japan taketh away.

ETA:

including the art director who worked on Lost Odyssey.

Hype ++ but still Hype --------. Will only check out for the art direction, I guess. Inafune's track record doesn't leave me too impressed (all IMO) and the fact this isn't Demon's Souls PSP2 is disappointing. :(

[Erethian]

Mitsuda seems to be getting around a bit lately, not that he's been lead composer on a game in a while. Wonder if it will be any different with this game

[GameE]

Hum, need more info and gameplay

[duckroll]

This was leaked 10 hours ago on 2ch. Mitsuda, Hokoyama, Inafune and AQL are now confirmed

So the SCEJ Producers are Kentaro Motomura and Teruyuki Toriyama. It'll be released this winter, 1-4 players over ad-hoc and wifi.

[lunchwithyuzo]

Marvelous AQL. Totally nailed it. :)

[Ridley327]

Marvelous AQL, huh? duckroll is probably not wrong in guessing that it's whatever is left of Feel Plus.

The question now, though, is do they have what it takes to make a solid MH clone.

Japan in the winter and 2 years down the line for the US due to Japan's incompetent time span on these translations ><

Automatic buy with online.

Well, that certainly stamped on the hopes and dreams of everyone looking forward to Soul Sacrifice.

fuck yes.

[Ryuuga]

Capcom, take notes.

[B.K.]

Sounds unique.

The "Sacrifice" part of the title refers to a type of magic that the player can cast. Each time you cast a Sacrifice magic, you'll have to make some sort of sacrifice. For instance, you can sacrifice your finger (or maybe all of them?) to call out a Gleipnir. Sacrifice your eye (or maybe both?) and you'll call out a Gorgon. In other words, you'll have to sacrifice your body parts to perform more powerful magic... which seems to confirm that this will be a CERO Z game, although the rating is apparently not listed in Famitsu.

Well they already made Ninety Nine Nights 2.

.....

lol.

[Ridley327]

In the immortal words of Piglet, oh d-d-d-d-dear.

EDIT: there's no way that Sony is going to allow this game to get away with a CERO Z; it'd be sales suicide.

[toleoring]

犠牲と代償が魔法の源、口から背骨抜いてエクスカリバーとか、血？、骨、目玉が武器、ちょいグロ 大きな力は大きな犠牲

Oh god...this sounds brutal....

[impact]

In the immortal words of Piglet, oh d-d-d-d-dear.

I wouldn't call it down and out just quite yet, but if it is the team that duckroll is thinking of, then you have a 50/50 shot of it being pretty solid.

Then again, I don't know if anyone else played any of the Shadow Hearts games to give the same odds.

[DMeisterJ]

In for Mitsuda.

[duckroll]

Oh and the other part of the leak confirms that the monsters you fight are humans who have succumbed to the darkness. So the mutation theory is also correct.

[chickdigger802]

...

And... why does this game have so much hype?

[Ridley327]

.... ... And... why does this game have so much hype?

Well, people seemed to think that this was going to be something different, and by "something different," I mean "OH SHIT IT'S SO GOING TO BE A NEW SOULS GAME THAT'S BEING MADE BY FROM."

Cooler heads have prevailed, but at what cost?

[prwxv3]

SCEJ may be failures at bringing out games frequently they are pretty good at not bringing out completely trash games like N3: Ninety-Nine Nights II.

[LiquidMetal14]

.... ... And... why does this game have so much hype?

Cause it's not N2. And it's a Vita game which holds my interest. Online MH style action with great Vita graphics. I don't know, that's just me.

[C-Jo]

I believe in Inafune.

Ninety Nine Nights 2 was terribad, but if enough Shadow Hearts/Lost Odyssey people are involved, I don't see any reason to doubt a competent MonHan clone, at the very least.

I don't really think anything from the Shadow Hearts games will apply to game design for a 4 player co-op action game honestly. If it is Feel Plus and everyone hasn't bailed out of the company yet, the art direction should be pretty solid, but the game design, polish, etc will depend on how hands on Inafune is and whether he still has it in him to lead a team to make something like Onimusha. :P

[Carl]

Sounds unique. http://andriasang.com/con0xa/soul_sa..._inafune_maql/

Okay that sounds quite cool.

[B.O.O.M]

the gameplay information sounds extremely interesting and unique

Well, at least Inafune's first big game away from Capcom isn't ripping off one of his own titles!

[jj984jj]

Haha, WTF, it actually ended up being MAQL after all. Well at least it's not a spiritual successor to WKC PSP or by Idea Factory.

Not sure if it'll be great though, hope some of the Shadow Hearts vets who were at feelplus are involved.

and I doubt SCEJ will allow this game to end up like N2.

Worked for Kamiya :)

[Sammy Samusu]

And they promised me a new Capcom game, where's it!

the author updated this

The "Sacrifice" part of the title refers to your magic. When you cast a magic, you'll need to make payment through objects. You can use things like stones and trees as payment. But for more powerful magic, you'll be able to sacrifice your body parts. For instance, you can sacrifice your finger(s) to call out a Gleipnir. Sacrifice your eye(s) and you'll call out a Gorgon.

[B.O.O.M]

As long as Inafune and SCEJ are involved, I have no worries. The game is going to be great

[HaRyu]

Sounds unique. http://andriasang.com/con0xa/soul_sa..._inafune_maql/

I would hope that we could get those sacrificed body parts back.... otherwise, I'd greedily horde my 10 fingers and 2 eyes throughout the game. :p

[StickSoldier]

So this doesn't have anything to do with Dark/Demons Souls right?

[prwxv3]

maybe the art/monster design. and thats it.

[Truth101]

Don't know why people thought it did.

[jj984jj]

Correct. From Software has nothing to do with this.

[cyborg009]

Oh and the other part of the leak confirms that the monsters you fight are humans who have succumbed to the darkness. So the mutation theory is also correct.

Eh was I more or less right

[lunchwithyuzo]

feelplus is probably the most intact of the old AQi groups. The big names at Artoon left to form Arzest and Neir's director left cavia.
