Man this game is so gross. Hope it plays good.

[eLZhi]

I'm finding the gore in the artwork to be almost comical. It's definitely not gross out gore.

[Jonnyram]

What is this talk of the game not being localised?
Even the website has full English: http://www.jp.playstation.com/scej/t.../en/index.html

think Evil Dead type of gore?

Yeah I noticed that earlier this morning, which makes me think this might have a good chance of getting a worldwide release.

Also according to the site This



is an example of how varied the character customization is. It also actually notes that your character will change depending on your playstyle. So it seems like there will be a healthy amount of customization options for your avatar.

There is alot of good information on the site already. All I want really is some direct feed footage of the game.

[eLZhi]

Yeah, kinda like that.

[MrBelmontvedere]

That'd be more of a 180, yeah? 360 would put you back in the zero interest camp.

rather a 360 degree turn is a complete turn around, representative of this games effect on my feelings towards Vita. while a 180 degree turn is only half way turned around, which would put me at only half-way interested in this game and system. in the colloquial sense, that was my intended meaning. not literally, as in I literally did a 360 degree turn in my computer chair, which would indeed put right back where I started. now besides being rather silly this would make me quite dizzy.

ultimately this is an argument about semantics, which besides being OT is rather asinine. but feel free to continue this discussion without me as a participant.

[Slime]

My Vita hype has been deflated since last fall (despite Sound Shapes and Gravity Daze screaming "buy me"), but if this is good, it could really push me over the edge. Intriguing stuff, multiplayer especially.

[Chuck Norris]

Did this start as a PSP game?

[B-Genius]

this kinda makes me laugh on how crazy it is. that Gif above needs some sort of caption

"GTFO"

That bit made me squirm a bit as well! Gonna be keeping an eye on this one, so to speak.

[nelsonroyale]

Did this start as a PSP game?

Doubt it considering how crazy the game looks in motion...if it was it must have been changed considerably...

[Yjynx]

Is there any confirmation on it to be shown on e3?

[ReaperXL07]

Is there any confirmation on it to be shown on e3?

not yet, but there are things that make me think it's possibe. Sony needs to focus on the Vita, if they don't, they will be in trouble on that front. So if this is one of their big projects for it than I doubt it will be absent, but it depends on how much western support they have lined up for the Vita.

Also the website is in full english, which makes me think that localization is going to be a priority.

[Tricky I Shadow]

It’s not confirmed, but I’d be completely shocked if it didn’t make an appearance.

[Fine Ham Abounds]

The "gore" doesn't bother me one bit. It looks like a great, original concept, and game. I can't wait to play it.

^

It's cartoony at worst. Those David Lynch PS3 commercials are like 10 times more disturbing than this game. Plus this actually makes sense and is intimately tied into the game's context.

Yeah it would be really stupid to not show it on E3 (and not bringing it to the west would be criminally stupid considering lesson the got on Daemon's Souls)

Apparently it's something that is still being decided.

i don't know. this just sounds like spin to me :) ...

[The_Darkest_Red]

Apparently it's something that is still being decided.

I'm hoping they just didn't want to let the "it's coming to the West" cat out of the bag until E3. It's funny, the two things I want most at E3 are announcements of Japanese games coming to the States (this game and FE: Awakening).

Usually when someone says they've "pulled a 180", it means they've completely reversed their position. If you're facing north and turn 180-degrees, you're now facing south. 360-degrees means you're still looking north. The colloquial expression for a 360-degree turn is "coming full-circle".

just out of my being curious, how many Japanese game sites are in full english? If I were to put money on it I would say that he's not confirming for 2 reasons. One like you said is E3 in three weeks, the other is probably deciding on a worldwide release or seperate. If Sony is pushing for games like this, but only chooses to release them in one market then the Vita really will be doomed.

[B.O.O.M]

I wonder if the game will have a class system and if it does what sort of classes there will be.

Maybe classes for different affinities like fire, wind and lightning?

[Callibretto]

I have a feeling no classes, probably a skill tree of magics that you can unlock progressively more powerful magic as you level up, and you equip which magic you want to bring to fight. that will affect your playstyle essentially making your own custom class.

at least I hope it work like that.

Don't you find it strange that they would have the website in English and English dubbed versions of the presentation if they were not planning on bringing the game to the West?

It seems so to me at least. (or do they usually give this much English attention to Japanese-only releases?)

[darkwing]

this game is glorious, can't wait for E3

[shinkansen.3000]

Very interesting, I'll be definitely keeping an eye on this!
Vita needs more of these games!

[Akainu]

*Mute* They really couldn't find someone who spoke english?

[Kyoufu]

They didn't explain what the price of sacrificing was since there is no MP. *confused*

[gembel]

i want to punch this translator!

There are no semantics. We're talking geometry here.

On-topic: Inafune talked about how Ad-hoc multiplayer is enough for Japan, but not enough for the other regions - it's pretty clear this game is bound for at least US/UK.
Germany will probably be a hard sell. ;-)

[Keikoku]

Worldwide release or I sell my vita.

[eLZhi]

Worldwide release or I sell my vita.

Considering the entire teaser/event has been in both Japanese and English, I'd say a Western release is all but announced.

[Arxisz]

Just saw the whole conference and my mind was blown.
I need to get myself a vita now.

I wonder why they change translator every few minutes though. it's really annoying. one time you have someone who can do it decently then few minutes later they switch to someone I can hardly understand....

[shink]

I'd think so too. Now the question is how soon after the Japanese release.

[Averon]

I'd think so too. Now the question is how soon after the Japanese release.

I'm thinking about one year from now, assuming SS is a December release.

[BadWolf]

Game keeps sounding and looking more and more amazing.

Really liking that theme song.

[B.O.O.M]

That end game situation of save or sacrifice is just brilliant!

[Vlodril]

Wasn't very interested in the art and the announcement but that boss fight was pretty good. And i dislike boss battles. So who knows. Need to see more but its looking good.

[Glorious Ownage]

The combat and graphics look amazing. Fast, fluid and varied. I'm very hyped for this game.

The translation on the otherhand was embarrassing to listen to.

[earvcunanan]

#gamechanger

[Globox_82]

only Japanese can make a game like this. bad ass

[eLZhi]

I'd think so too. Now the question is how soon after the Japanese release.

I'm gonna go ahead and say a simultaneous release, or very close to it. Think Dark Souls or Dragon's Dogma.

[Kenak]

i don't know. this just sounds like spin to me :) ...

Usually what happens when people can't take being wrong..

[James Sawyer Ford]

Spectacular mechanics/vision for this game.

Hopefully it enjoys much success in Japan, and even in the US if it can cross over and appeal to the Demon's Souls crowd.

This is exactly the sort of games Vita needs.
