Mark MacDonald is representing 8-4 Play.

WhoaIsThatMars · Aug 30, 2015

awesome, thanks. Been waiting for this to be uploaded

DangerMouse · Aug 30, 2015

Cool! Thanks.

moolamb · Aug 30, 2015

Thanks!

There's quite a few spoilers in there so I suggest not watching if you wanna explore the world yourself.

TheGreatLugia · Aug 30, 2015

It sounds like John has been working on the voice recordings?

EnlightenedMint · Aug 30, 2015

Thanks, been looking forward to watching this.

foxuzamaki · Aug 30, 2015

Been waiting for this.

Thoraxes · Aug 30, 2015

They should announce more copies of the Limited Edition.

Will watch when I get home.

Effect · Aug 30, 2015

Nice. Here's hoping we get some decent information out of this.

Edit: This explains why 8-4 suddenly stopped talking about Xenoblade X when it was clear John and Justin were looking forward to it and enjoying it.

Lumyst · Aug 30, 2015

While there wasn't any voicework shown, that was an informative discussion about some of the thinking and iteration that goes into design of props and characters, symbolism, etc. Some characters are dramatically different in appearance compared to initial concepts.

(I liked the first iteration of Celica better

)

8-4 can do the whole enchilada for a localization if the situation calls for it, especially if they get carte blanche on a project, like they did for Baten Kaitos Origins, Nier and Shadows of the Damned.

Yabberwocky · Aug 30, 2015

Cheers, I've been looking forward to it!

I can't remember the exact interview, but I want to say Takhahashi mentioned at E3 that he's been contributing to the localization a bit. I could be mistaking it for his involvement in the first game's localization, though.

Ridley327 · Aug 30, 2015

Awesome, the USB drive lights up when it's plugged in!

Nanashrew · Aug 30, 2015

Finally getting to watch it! Was busy with splatfest earlier.

OrbitalBeard · Aug 30, 2015

Very cool. My hype is returning for this game.

threelights · Aug 30, 2015

Completely missed the thread. Good that they already uploaded.

Watching...

TheMoon · Aug 30, 2015

Awesome panel.

I would've woo'd for you, Mark!

Porcile · Aug 30, 2015

I love that this and Star Fox come out within a few weeks of each other. The Gundam-loving, 1970s anime/sci-fi in me is pretty happy right now. It's a shame Galak-Z isn't coming out for Wii U.

Nothing of the dub.

Oh well, least we got the special edition out of this.

RampagingSoul · Aug 30, 2015

Dat concept art... This presentation made me want to get the special edition even more.

foxuzamaki · Aug 31, 2015

God, the concept art is all so freaking sick.

I was thinking the exact same thing except with another picture haha.
I think most of the crowd was thinking it aswell.

Codeblue · Aug 31, 2015

8-4 handling the localization is super exciting. Still find it hilarious that Nintendo credited MarcMacD on twitter.

sublimit · Aug 31, 2015

That was very interesting!The amount of thought they put behind those concept designs is crazy.

So glad i got it in time.

Space Medafighter X · Aug 31, 2015

Man, this game looks awesome. Any word on the DLC?

Effect · Aug 31, 2015

Here is the gameplay from the Twitch PAX stream. You can hear the English voices here. Demetrius Boggs, who was at the panel linked above, is showing off the game in this clip.

What all is there other than the 4 party members, is that it? Do they come with quests or anything? I might buy them. If its just a character and nothing else, I don't know.

It looks like the characters come with quests and new mechs, just wondering if they mentioned them yet.

Edit: And new arts as well.

Yeah, I really like the voices of the 2 characters in the clip

Taking a guess, irene and murderess are probably sisters.

Are they keeping the japanese voices for battles or those not done yet? I'm hearing it in japanese.

I think they said at the panel that they're still recording some lines.

I imagine those are being recorded last, given the sheer volume of lines that they have for the battles (over 11k!). I bet that's what johntv is working on right now.

Ok, hope they do those. It would be weird for battle voices to be japanese and then cutscenes in english.

I can't think of any game that's released like that.

The E3 build had English text and subtitles with Japanese voices while the PAX build has English text and voices during cutscenes with Japanese voices in battles.

Neifirst · Aug 31, 2015

I've been on media blackout for awhile but had to watch the first few minutes of that twitch stream - game looks soooooo good.

But surely 8-4 can come up with a better party character name than Doug, right?

Pretty sure that's his Japanese name as well

It was good. I just wish they'd show longer gameplay segments whenever they did =X

Although it's not like there's a shortage of footage on the game...

But I always enjoy concept art, so yeah...

Phu · Aug 31, 2015

That was really interesting.

I really enjoy these kinds of panels/talks and wish they'd happen more often.

LiK · Aug 31, 2015

8-4 means good dialogue and jokes. happy they're doing the localization.

Xbro · Aug 31, 2015

Can someone make a gif of that last video at 41:40?

Got it. It's insanely large though so I'm posting it as a link here

EndlessSky · Aug 31, 2015

Did they not show anything of the more finalized dub? Nothing on the game floor either?

thebisonxrc · Aug 31, 2015

I'm becoming more excited about this game as each day passes. I hope the next three months will go by quickly!

I doubt they're doing all of it if the game's coming out so soon from the Japanese release. I don't know how the process here was versus the original one.

Tatsu is not food jokes for sure ;p

At the least, they're involved with the VAs. Nier had superb voice acting, so I'm really optimistic.
