Is there any interview where tri-ace explains WHY they haven't ported VP2 yet? That game look AMAZING on the ps2
Buying 'kay
Yes best news to wake up too. Though I already forgot what changes it has over the ps3 version.
The PS3 version was the one that had those things. It was the 360 one that didn't.From what I remember reading it was the option for Japanese voices, anime portraits, and some minor crafting changes.
The story, characters (doesn't help that everyone of the cast is a stereotype) and it often reminds you of some bad fanics.If you ask people why they think SO4 is bad, they'll usually say something like "the English VA" or "the characters (Lymle)." The International version has Japanese VA, so that should help a fair bit.
The game itself is quite good. Really fun combat, item creation is decent (better than SO3's at least, fight me), and the variety of locations is unparalleled in the series. It's the only Star Ocean game where you actually go planet hopping, which is pretty cool.
Look in the thread title.
The PC version will use DENUVO.
Squeenix WTF
I wanna play this so I can experience hyper cringe first hand.
You think Nappy Time is the worst that it can get?
Just wait until you see a 8-year old looking cat girl in fetish gear, a 23 year old woman who constantly acts like a 65 year old cougar, a woman with bird wings who... is not all together up there, and Faize.
Yeah, Sarah annoyed me much more than Lymle did, but the two of them together in the same cast is just like more than any one person should be forced to endure.
>digital only
fucking dropped
Oh, you'll get some cringe alright. More cheesy cliches, impossibly annoying character moments, and (ow, the) Edge than you can shake a stick at.I wanna play this so I can experience hyper cringe first hand.
Lol if they remake/remaster RoF they're not going to get rid of one of the major mechanics. The hexagon system is woven into many aspects of the game.This would be interesting... Hope they fix the hexagon system for world map. I hated it
My only complaint was those annoying backtracking attempting to extend the life of the game, or at least that is what it felt for me.
I did finish it 3 times for the platinum. (proof)
You're 100% of the problem.
What about this release ever made you think it would come out on disc. It's a remaster of a JRPG which is pretty universally considered one of the worst in the series besides the graphics and battle system that sold okish it begin with.
I can't understand why is S-E remastering this game and not other games like Valkirie Profile 2 Silmeria.

Tri-ace games are incredibly weird. They even have their own checkbox/fixes in the stock emulator PCSX2 (and I think PSXe?).
To this day, you cannot emulate VP2 on a PC very well without some very special hacks and fixes that require you to turn off other features of the emulator. I believe even VP1 (and by extension, VPL) have some strange coding or wizardry or whatever that makes them difficult to emulate. There are ways around it, but it's not easy. I believe their are versions of the emulators released with special fixes. Long story short, it'd likely take a LOT of work (just on an emulation front, so I imagine brute force is out of the picture) for a potentially small audience. Actually porting/remastering the game is a different story, but I can't imagine it's easy or worth their time and money. As much of a champion as I am for the VP games, I wouldn't consider them massive hits with a huge potential audience.
This is also why I have a spare 60GB BC Launch PS3 handy and a PS2.
Perhaps SO4 is them testing the waters, though...
It's a publisher thing i guess?Seems pretty weird to implement Denuvo on a budget game.
They put it in Before the Storm too which is a unity game where Denuvo doesn't even protect the exe but a separate file that's much easier to crack. Pretty sure that past Hitman they just put it on every property they have.Seems pretty weird to implement Denuvo on a budget game.
S-E just put Denuvo on every title they have yeah.It's a publisher thing i guess?
Any hope for Japanese dub? I might check it out on PC despite the characters looking and sounding like complete crap, as the combat is supposed to be good (unlike the rest of the game lol).
