So if this is multiplat from the start does that mean no Plus version later on? Or a rerelease on just one platform? I can't imagine them doing it on all three.

Maybe just DLC if they don't want to do a complete package later on.
This game is called "Country without Nights".
Haha, I have no problem if you enjoy this kind of thing, it's just not for me. I really enjoy a lot of the mechanics in Japanese game design, but I find it depressing when the treatment and design of the characters push me away from them. I'm sure the game will have in depth lore as to why the character is walking around outside in a bikini bottom and a floating strip of cloth.

I saw no Kuni in the title and for a split-second I thought...
DAMMIT!

Fair enough.

Well, they are on an island. Bikini fits.
Just for the record, when I saw Kuni, I instantly thought of Ni no Kuni. I didn't even play the game yet!

Yeah this is their first PS4 release so I expect the IQ to be really high in that version.

The fan service lets it down.

Clicked thread hoping it's a sequel.
Anyway, another anime girl to the vita collection.

Thing is, at least for the atelier games, a majority of it would not appeal to a sexually frustrated teenage boy. It would do the opposite of appealing to them actually.
Thus my question if you've played them.

Another somewhat obscure JRPG I'd like to play, but another somewhat obscure JRPG that will almost never go down in price/go on sale.
I'd really like to try the Alchemist series, but there are just so many and none of them are less than $20, if they are even that low. Man, I wish they would make an HD collection of those games :/

At first I was interested, and then I saw the second picture.
Nope, I'm out.

Well, Qoga was an action RPG, kinda.

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
Interesting, do hope this turns out good.
If I didnt see the Gust part in the title I would have thought it was going to be a new ni no kuni game lol

Still waiting for a board game version of Falcata!
On-topic, it's good to see one of the leads behind Deception is getting opportunities like this.

Considering it's Gust and Koei, it's pretty much a given by now.

Neat. Will keep my eye on this. I never used to be a fan of Gust, but I feel they've improved quite a bit in the last few years. The Dusk trilogy was much better than the Arland trilogy, and Ar Nosurge was pretty fun for what it was too.
If its turned out like this then I'm out
Keep an eye out for the Australian rating board. It'll probably be leaked there first.
Along with high impact sexual violence

I'm still in, but I'm iffy for a different reason. I dunno if Koei's involvement will mean the action is going to be reminiscent of Musou games. I respect those games and the people who like them, but I personally don't like them, so I'll be out if it's a Musou action rpg.
I really can't imagine it having Musou gameplay.
It's Gust developing it, not Omega Force.
same. but i think it will be a traditional jrpg. bring it on.

I've played them, and I love the Atelier series. This, though, I am a lot less interested in because of that second picture. Maybe it'll still be awesome, I can't say (we know so little about it right now), but it's not a good sign to me that one of the first things released about the game is overt fan service.
I don't mind its existence so much, but I wish there was still a steady stream of JRPGs that aren't just boobs and skimpy outfits.
That character design would be a lot better if the character didn't have an absurd chest.
Which is weird, because that's not really something I associate with Gust games.
Also it bothers me that Kikuchi gets credited with creating the Fatal Frame series. He's just the producer, Shibata writes and directs it.

The problem with yuri I found in this kind of media is that they mostly there for the titillation of male audience rather than for exploring a kind of relationship. I'm kinda tired seeing it from anime or manga which makes me add a fourth requirement on my own Bechdel's Test. And as per ZhugeEx post, the game is developed by Gust not KT. Also KT have others action title beside musou, namely Toukiden (you should know this), Trinity (which DQ derived most of its gameplay from), and Kessen (an action strategy).
Well the director is credited for Deception series, so I kinda expect this to be honest.

Only if your'e not fluent in Japanese.
I WISH!
I've been wanting a sequel for over a decade now.
Also worth mentioning that not all of Koei Tecmo's collaboration titles are Musou. We've seen Pokemon Conquest and Yokai Sangokushi which use NA and ROTK IP. Also Trinity as you said, Toukiden, and then of course all the tecmo titles, gust titles and mobile titles.
That new scans scream yuri so much. I might jumped off from the boat now.
Well about that...
Kinda hope they make another Nobunaga no Yabou or even RoTK crossover project in the future. Hoping for crossover Kessen title is just a pipe dream (especially Fire Emblem: Kessen).

and Parakeetman is Japanese lol

As posted in the other Gust thread - I'm in.
I've *loved* and simply adored Gust since I first met them with Atelier Iris 2. They are by far my favorite when it comes to character models and designs and I always enjoy their worlds and stories. I'm so incredibly glad that they're finally making the jump to the PS4.
