Isn't Tri-Ace famous for bullshots?

you must be thinking of ubshotsoft.

 

[Neuromancer]

don't they always LOLOL

Haha

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Save it for Project Cafe...

 

[dark10x]

That looks awesome. I'm glad to finally see something that seems to be making real use of the 3DS hardware. Most of the games shown to date look like PSP titles.

 

[Vinci]

Well, it's pretty. Now it just needs to play well. If it does that, perhaps it's worth a look.

Wut?

 

[RurouniZel]

Isn't Tri-Ace famous for bullshots?

You're thinking of Level 5

 

[Luigiv]

Oh the internet, never change. Anyone remember how 8 months ago people would enter ever new game announcement thread and go "should be a 3DS title, lololol"? How times have changed.

 

[djtiesto]

Awesome, now it's time to get a 3DS. tri-Ace are the best RPG devs around IMO.

 

[PKrockin]

Wow. Hopefully it plays as good as it looks.

 

[∀ Narayan]

Ugh. I really need to buy a PSP. Next month for sure!

 

[Luigiv]

Ugh. I really need to buy a PSP. Next month for sure!

Wrong thread or just trollin'?

 

[Fritz]

Hu? Elaborate trolling looks different.

You know, once you get your tag, you don't need to re-earn it again. Just saying.

 

[e_i]

I came. What is this. ICO?

Edit: Nope...it's a RPG. Day 1 purchase.

 

[Buzzati]

Tri-Ace is on board? Looks like I'll be getting a 3DS when this comes out.

 

[ivysaur12]

Beautiful. Some of those textures are amazing.

If this is what launch-era games look like, I can't wait to see how the system's software progresses.

 

[green sticker]

This looks really great, but I worry about my eyes when using the 3D on the 3DS. I don't own one but I have tried it out a few times and it's tough for me, maybe it's the glasses. Either way, this really gives me an ICO vibe all the way. I love Tri-ace.

 

[Skilletor]

Thanks to this thread I'm going to replay VP2.

 

[Vazra]

Someone needs to rip that song from the site and gently give us a download link.

 

[Bubs Mugumbo]

You did try it on multiple settings, right?

 

[GeekyDad]

After completing Covenant of the Plume (three times), I'm ready to nuzzle up to the tri-Ace teet. I'm very much looking forward to this game. First promising-looking 3DS RPG I've seen.

 

[Father_Brain]

I actually don't find this that impressive on a technical level, especially compared to, say, the MGS3 demo or the RE games - the environmental geometry looks fairly simple, and I don't see any real shader usage other than some cel shading on the main character's model. That said, the textures are good and the overall art direction is excellent, which counts for a lot.

 

[green sticker]

You did try it on multiple settings, right?

Yes I did, it was a little bearable on the lower 3D settings but still, it was tough to be comfortable with it. Maybe it's something I'd just need to get used to.

 

[cw_sasuke]

3/10

 

[Mr. Spinnington]

I don't know what people are seeing here. Those textures are horrible...

and the antialiasing, it's like they haven't heard of such a thing

 

[Vinci]

Probably a good time. Might be your last chance.

Hilariously enough it's the "worst" VP game.

 

[Lebron]

I'd play this just for the music

 

[jorgeton]

Now THIS I'd buy a 3DS for.

 

[GeekyDad]

Not to verge too off topic, but that, of course, is opinion. After playing a fair bit of Lenneth, I'd have to disagree. But to each his own. I personally enjoy intelligent and thought-provoking dialogue wrapped around pristine gameplay.

Either way, I'm a fan of the gameplay ideas tri-Ace tends to explore. The story of Resonance of Fate was beyond trite, and I wasn't the biggest fan of the hexagonal exploration (if you can call it that), but the battle system was just amazing, even if the dungeons themselves were devoid of any personality. I'm ready to see what they do with a "dungeon RPG."

 

[nincompoop]

Ooh, pretty. Hopefully it runs at 60fps like tri-Ace's PS2 games.

 

[Pureauthor]

Hilariously enough it's the "worst" VP game.

In terms of gameplay Lenneth is easily the worst VP game.

 

[Kuramu]

Wow, very nice looking. Sign me up.

 

[Quixzlizx]

Wut?

I can't look them up and upload them because of current location, but I remember those Star Ocean 4 bullshots that were completely gorgeous and AA'd. Look what ended up showing on the screen.

 

[kikonawa]

4 color gfx.. whats impressive about it

 

[Boss Doggie]

I still go by at what I said - at least VP1 cast had personality and the gameplay only took a ceiling in the post-game dungeon.

That's only one game out of their many though.

 

[140.85]

Crikey. I thought this was a low budget PS3 or 360 game or something when I clicked. 3DS???. Wow.

 

[Stumpokapow]

4 color gfx.. whats impressive about it

Which 4?

Excluding the obvious shades all over the place,
Screenshot 1: Yellow sky, brown arches, green moss, white character dress/hair
Screenshot 2: blue-grey stones, orange-brown rust or dead moss on stones, black shadows
Screenshot 3: blue-aqua water
Screenshot 6: purple flowers, red flowers, red broach on character, pink lips

I guess you're a big fan of bright orange, which is pretty much the only colour/shade not represented in the screenshots provided?

 

[Crazetex]

Pretty game looks pretty. I want know what kind of gameplay it has. I kind of hope it's a slow puzzle/exploration game.

 

[ReyVGM]

I'm still waiting for someone to make a true Labyrinth (the movie) game. I hope this has a bit of that feeling.

 

[LuFel]

do want this game...

 

[Izayoi]

Yes I did, it was a little bearable on the lower 3D settings but still, it was tough to be comfortable with it. Maybe it's something I'd just need to get used to.

You know that you can turn it off for a reason, right? Even without 3D this game would look pretty impressive.

 

[Yoshiya]

The music on the site is gorgeous. I start playing it and unwittingly leave it looping for half an hour.

 

[Brazil]

I see normal people praising the graphics and 3DS haters criticizing them here.

Can't wait to hear gameplay details. Is this supposed to be some kind of dungeon crawler? As someone mentioned in the first page, it seems to have an Etrian Odyssey vibe.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Isn't Tri-Ace famous for bullshots?

Not famous but I remember there were a few for SO4.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Game looks really great. Hope Tri-Ace pulls it off.

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

Holy Moses... Looks like something Fumito Ueda would cook up. Gorgeous lookin game :Q______

Right back from the old days of SNES and Mega Drive: the Color Warrior!
