I hope they fix the framerate issues for this one, when the city got many buildings in MLaaK it got kind of annoying at times.

From the pic it looks like that Mira girl will take the role of assistant this time that Chime had in the first game. I wonder how the Lord will look.

I think there's a Bomb in the other pic. It will be so awesome to have monsters living in your city and be able to issue missions to them (I hope that's the case). Can't wait to see how the buildings will look.

I really wasn't expecting this. So good!

I wonder if Mira looking half good and half evil means you get to choose to be bad or good.

Good call on her looks, this could lead to some interesting gameplay differences like missions and who you will be moving into your town.

I wonder if they'll implement a few online features. It would be great to share spreadsheets and stuff with other players.

I'll be curious to see what differences there are in terms of mechanics. Loved the first game, but I'm hoping this is more than just a face lift.
 
Hm, just noticed she says "a new Darklord" so I guess that means it wont be the one from MLaaK. Also, if this is coming out before TCB which I'm sure is likely, there have now been 4 FFCC released since the announcement of TCB. :lol

I will try this and then play for just one more day...then another...

The first one sucked me into playing over and over and never quitting!

Looking forward to this.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a Darklord puts players in the highly fashionable shoes of the Darklord's daughter, a malevolent little Miss, charged with dispatching intruding do-gooders by strategically placing traps and monsters around the tower she calls home.

Players will need to get their hands on ever more diabolical traps and abominable monsters to stop those pesky adventurers from making it to the Dark Crystal at the top of the tower. Be warned, though – with heroes of all the races and job classes from the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series storming the Darklord’s lair in real time, traps and minions will count for nothing unless deployed like a true evil genius. Anything less and the Darklord’s beloved home will be reduced to rubble!

Hmmm... interesting.

It'd be awesome if you could load your MLaaK save into this and then have to fight off your own super-adventurers :p

And load the save for this in MLaaK and get your tower as a new dungeon? :p

Probably not, though :p

Wow. Hype totally lost for this game. Will not buy.

It certainly looks a whole lot different from MLaaK.
Wow, it sure is.

So apparently Mira is the main character, not an assistant. I'm getting Leblanc vibes. :lol

Definitely way more "action oriented" than the first one.

Looks good. I'm glad they're still building the Crystal Cronicles brand on the platform. Should help the retail debut of The Crystal Bearers.

So it's basically the exact opposite of MLAAK. Instead of training adventurers to go into dungeons, defeat enemies, and steal loot, you're setting up traps and monsters to stop adventurers from defeating you and stealing your loot.

I like.

You know what would be cool?
If it would load the adventurers from MLaaK and you get to slay them in your dungeon.
