Thoughts Terra Battle fans?

 

[JuanLatino]

Not a terra battle player but still looking forward to that interview

i wonder what sakaguchi thinks of the FF7 Remake and the changes regarding it.

 

[Mistouze]

Did my part because I enjoyed the first game for a couple of month. Need to read up on what the gameplay for the sequel looks like.

 

[mortal]

I gotta say that photo is pretty amazing. Having a mentorship turned friendship like Sakaguchi and Nomura have is so damn cool. Even more so when you reconnect with one another once again to collaborate, decades later in your creative careers, and in life.

This isn't really that big a deal, but it's pretty neat seeing how bonds can last over time.

Edit: Tetsuya Nomura needs to publish a goddamn official art book already. I'd buy it.

 

[Arabesque]

Thoughts Terra Battle fans?

It's pretty cool, I did like how guest artists would design new units in TB1.

 

[Lindsaymv]

Wonder if they'll bother to release it on the New Zealand play store this time. I played the game at launch by downloading an apk and it's probably the only gatcha game I've ever legitimately enjoyed but boy, every patch breaking my game got annoying after a while. Puzzles and Dragons too never came out. It's strange because quite often we get games first before other countries as a kind of testing ground.

 

[Izuna]

The Gooch is back

I like the idea also, but it didn't always pan out well.

See everyone's favorite TB1 hero (drawn by Hitoshi Yoneda):

*puke*

He looks like a fidget spinner

 

[Beth Cyra]

Damn it I will pre sign up Gooch, the one thing that could pull me to this game and you got it.

That said I do want that interview I love hearing about he relationship between the two.

 

[mortal]

He looks like a fidget spinner

Oh.My.God.

lol

 

[True Fire]

These two used to be unstoppable. Now they can't even get a console game published between the two of them.

 

[SOLDIER]

Nomura is just as an important influence to the FF franchise as Sakaguchi is.

Haters can hate all they want, it won't make that less true. These two defined two generations of Final Fantasy's history.

 

[CTLance]

Oh, thanks for the info. I like TB1 quite a bit, although I never really got very far.

Pre-reg'd.

Obligatory: Now who do I need to bother to get a port to the switch? Only half joking. ... I'd also take an offline version of the original game. Would be a shame to lose that game if the servers ever went offline.

 

[Arabesque]

I like the idea also, but it didn't always pan out well.

They can't be all winners

But at least we know what the absolute worst design looks like?

 

[Mobius 1]

It's going to be made of belts, isn't it?

 

[GKFinns]

Keep an eye out tomorrow about a big fan contest going out to celebrate this!

 

[docbon]

Just pre-registered. Can't wait to try the game out!

I think the thread title could use some adjustment to make it clearer that pre-registration just opened for Android / iOS.

 

[Osukaa]

He looks like a fidget spinner

....just stop ...I cant even ... LOLOL

 

[DKHF]

Hopefully Famitsu will post a translated version of the Nomura and Sakaguchi interview online like they did for Tabata and Sakaguchi (though maybe not since that was when they were pushing XV really hard). Or some site translates it. Seems like a really cool interview.

Yeah it could, sorry about that. I'm not familiar with the game so wasn't sure if it was a big deal.

 

[GKFinns]

To celebrate the collaboration between Sakaguchi and Nomura, they are holding a fan event/contest.

Submitting your fan art or cosplay of any of their games, or a short video describing why their games are/were important to you using the #FFReunion (or submitted here), and Sakaguchi will be choosing the winners himself to win Square Enix/Mistwalker prizes!

 

[DKHF]

From this week's Famitsu, Terra Battle 2 will launch in mid-September (no other new information about the game from the issue besides the release timing yet).
