just hope the characters are not as retarded as in SO4.
Off topic but who the heck is that gray haired girl to the left of Fayt? I don't remember her at all...
Claire. Her father[?] was the playable magical samurai Adray. She's Nel's friend (hence why they're dressed the same)
I am so excited to play this, I absolutely cannot wait. I really like the design of the main character, but the pink haired girl does look a little creepy. Overall, I like her design as well, though.
I pray they keep the original JP VO available for the US release... Star Ocean has a history of cringe worthy VO.
I just really don't like full screen filters that mess with the white balance or distort the colors. Those UI portraits are way more bright and colorful than the actual character models because they aren't affected by the filter.
In fact, I don't really care for most post processing at all.
How does anyone's brain even come up with shit like this:
Was she supposed to be playable at some point or is that just fan art?Claire. Her father[?] was the playable magical samurai Adray. She's Nel's friend (hence why they're dressed the same)

Thats official work. But I dont think she was ever going to be playable, I kinda forgot the differences between the original release and the director's cut version. All i know, is that PAs better mean something this time unlike SO4, SO3 had a point where PAs affected what boss you would fight. Also ADRAY sucked... give me a Buff swordsman.. who completely used magic.

It really isn't that boggling. Bodysuit with cutouts. However, getting it on in real life would probably be an absolute nightmare.
EoE or VP designs wouldn't really fit SO. Tri-Ace have said that they want the game to remind people of the SO games before SO4, and these designs would fit right in with the casts of those games
I don't mind the use of anything so long as it enhances my ability to see what is one the screen. Thus, I don't care for motion blur, huge lens flare or anything that darkens the image. If it makes the image brighter, and more crisp I will like it.
"Star Ocean gameplay is often compared to the Tales series of video games by Namco, which is not a coincidence: after the release of Tales of Phantasia, practically its entire design department left and founded tri-Ace."
Totally agree with this, PAs were a major highlight of SO2 and SO3.All i know, is that PAs better mean something this time unlike SO4, SO3 had a point where PAs affected what boss you would fight. Also ADRAY sucked... give me a Buff swordsman.. who completely used magic.
Website update's up. All kinds of cool stuff including some character bios, voice samples and...
Holy shit the BGMs. "Field01" is right in line with some of my favorite SO3 dungeon themes.
I. Can't. Wait. To. Play. This.

Love the tribe vibe her outfit gives off. Man this cast looks cool as hell
Im thinking april and may for this and project setsunaThe kid character looks like she could be ok. Her clothes kinda remind me of Mongolian and Inuit mix or something. Please don't be as shit as Lymle.
Damnit we need a release date for the west so I know what date to look forward to.
New character
No offense to the artists or anybody who likes them but the designs in SO3 are AWFUL. Like barf. SO2 are better but not by as much as I'd like :/
Lymle 2.0 better not happenReally like her design, hope her character/personality doesn't suck.
What i find most impressive( again ) is the trasition between 2D and 3D.
The 3D model is really excellent ... you see all the details from the 2D artwork.

Great character design but oh boy...
Lilia is the focus here, and interestingly enough, she is NOT a playable character. She is however a member of your party, and will participate in battles as usual. Famitsu doesn’t get specific, but she’s an active participant and will grow just like the rest of your characters. Huh.
Private Actions are back, indicated by whistle icons on your map. There are Private Actions where you’ll be able to select from a series of responses in dialogue, which will apparently have an effect on other events as well.
