same here, I'll always support anything Falcom related day one even if I don't own the device.Originally Posted by rockmanjoe
I love Falcom and this series, so I'll most likely end up buying this game before I even get a Vita (still waiting on the 2000 model).
SO EXCITED.

welp, i'll at least have a vita in time for this. my first ys game!
Looking forward to getting my hands on the LE.
I wish I weren't so poor right now i.i
The Dawn of Ys (Falcom Spring 2008)
Best track in any of the Ys IVs, arranged to pure badassery.
It's funny because though I'm sure the final boss WAS a real bastard, the worst boss I remember in Ys Seven was actually the FIRST one. I'd never played a Ys game before and that boss was so punishing I stopped playing the game for months right after I beat it because I didn't want to play a whole game full of that.Originally Posted by That1BlackGuy
Haha yeah the Final Boss was a real bastard.
I just recently went through 7 on Nightmare and oddly, only phase 2 gave me trouble.Originally Posted by That1BlackGuy

Of course it could be said I was a bit overlevelled after grinding for materials for the ultimate weapons....
OMG I cannot believe I've been waiting for this ever since it was first announced, I think two years ago?
And now, it is almost here, I want it so bad :*(
Right here.Got mine preordered at Newegg. Has anyone gotten the soundtrack yet or know whats on it? I just need to know how awesome it is? So awesome or SOOOOOOOO awesome?
Sooo good ... arrrrrgh I want to play this game on the gorgeous OLED display!Originally Posted by bishopcruz

Ys 7 was super Amazing.
Eh? 7 Was amazing. Honestly the best gameplay of them all.Originally Posted by chickdigger802
Shiiiit. Game looks a bit like a psp game upressed on vita too.
Might need to wait for impressions. Ys 7 wasn't the best recent one which this seems a bit similar too. Hmmmm

Man, they should've put this in the game. The in-game version was crap...
It's a typing tutor minigame. The minigame has been decoupled from Zwei and fan translated, but I'm not really sure it's distribution is legal. I know Tom said don't share it on XSEED's forums so I doubt it's kosher here either.Originally Posted by Jucksalbe
There's a "The Typing of Ys"?
I doubt that's the consensus, but there's so many opinions I have no idea what's most popular among non-forum goers. I personally feel like it's a step back from Felghana and Origin. Both of those built on Napishtim in a huge way though, so if Celceta builds on Seven similarly it could be great.Eh? 7 Was amazing. Honestly the best gameplay of them all.
Personally I wasn't a big fan. It was OK, but not great - 40 minutes from start until you finally can leave town and fight things, and I found the combat system in Felghana much more fun. Hopefully Celceta's system is improved just as much as Felghana's was from Ys 6.Eh? 7 Was amazing. Honestly the best gameplay of them all.
Guess we shouldn't expect another Ys like Origins. I suppose the party system was established so that they can have Adol and introduce new playable characters to the mix at once. Or perhaps I'm overthinking it.The generally accepted rumor (which is only a rumor, to be fair, but does seem to be supported by Japanese reviews and message board comments) is that the game didn't do particularly well in Japan due to the lack of Adol. Ys fans overseas (oversYs?) are nuts about the ol' red-haired adventurer, and they were NOT happy to play an Ys game without him!

I'm currently making my way through Ys Seven after neglecting it for months, mainly because I'm interested in picking up Celceta. I wasn't too keen on having to manage three characters in Ys-style battles but I think it's growing on me. I miss the platforming and not being able to jump, though.
I wouldn't agree. Ys Seven was a good game but as an Ys game it's the polar opposite of what a lot of people expect from the series in a lot of ways.Eh? 7 Was amazing. Honestly the best gameplay of them all.
Bosses are one example. In most Ys games bosses are very hard but very quick if you do them correctly, every hit matters and a skilled player can take down most bosses in a minute or less if they're good enough. In Seven most bosses have tons of HP and take time, more so than high skill, to beat.
Most Ys games have a small number of skills that all serve a specific purpose, where Ys Seven has tons of skills with very few of them really standing out as unique.
Similarly to skills, equipment and leveling up in most Ys games are a huge and noticeable progressional step. Every time you level up or get a new sword in, say, Oath in Felghana, you REALLY feel it and it's a big step forward. Not so in Ys Seven, they're much smaller steps similar to "regular" Jrpgs.
Way too much over written, mediocre dialogue that got me annoyed. Most scenes were three times longer than they needed to be. Eventually led to me skipping ALL dialogue in the game.
Ys Seven is a good game but, for me, it's probably my least favorite in the series, and follows a complete opposite design philosophy to prior games in many ways. Thankfully a lot of importers have told me that a good number of my gripes with Ys Seven have been addressed in the Vita game.
It's getting kinda weird. Though I had free 2-day shipping on Mario 3D World and it came yesterday on release date. Not sure what's going on with it.Originally Posted by mattiewheels
I'm a Prime member, and I'm noticing that my preoerders say 'Use 1-day shipping to get this on release day'. Did they change this? I remember getting games on release day with my Prime free shipping before. My order also says Dec 2, which is ridiculous.
aint no late to the party here!
we are the partYs!
That stupid turtle thing. I had to take breaks to let my thumb rest. I remember you had to be constantly moving since his spinning pulls you in. First boss in Felghana was also a pain the first time.Originally Posted by chrominance

Really looking forward to this
Well that makes me anxious about going back and trying to finish. The only boss I had trouble with up to the point in the game I stopped playing at was the solo-Adol arena fight.Originally Posted by Marshall Lee
ys seven had a INCREDIBLY HARD final boss and caused me to not finish the game entirely
I know ys games are known to have difficult bosses but fuck
