Lost Odyssey hype thread 2 (new info, staff summary, ultimate pre-official thread)

I'm gladed they fixed the achievements. I'm guess im becoming an achievement whore, but it doesn't feel right when I've put over 30 hours into Blue Dragon and I haven't even got 500 achievement points yet : (
 
Look at the bottom right picture in the 4th page under Sed's profile.

Fucking Heihachi comfirmed! :lol (kinda makes sense since that fucker never dies anyway)

Ah, I didn't actually read any releases. just assumed it was altogether.

Also, with your LO Thread due any day now would it be too soon for me to call dibs on an official Infinite Undiscovery thread?:D

The LO thread won't go up until 1st Dec. I'm trying to keep it as close to the release as possible. There have also been comments by mods lately that "official threads" should only go up a week before release at most. As for IU, I dunno, if you feel you know enough about the game to create a thread, go for it. :lol

Yeah, I meant dibs now, thread later since it's still a ways off from release. :P
I can't take that Heihachi guy serious. Hopefully he's a comic foil because I'll be too busy laughing at him to actually follow whatever he's saying or doing.
 
Famitsu has an updated preview!

http://www.famitsu.com/game/coming/1211849_1407.html

There you can see several details:

- Immortals who equip accessories can learn the accessory's skill by earning SP with it equipped until the skill is learned (like in FF9).

- Mortals who equip accessories do not learn the skill, but only have it while the accessory is equipped.

- All equipment is visible in LO, as can be seen by Kaim's glasses in one pic, and earrings in the other pic.

Field map?

duckroll, is that true?

Well, I think apparently, the static map where you select locations is for fast travel. So you don't have to run from one location to another on the field generating a gazillion random encounters. But once you get the vehicle, you can explore the world by moving around. It can also go underwater.... I wonder why..... ^^;

oh! that's awesome like FF3 and FF5.

this game has great texturing, but other than that, looks very dated, not to mention the combat, surely they couldve tried something new....
 
It looks awesome!I realy like the fact its got a world map,cuz i realy didnt like the ff10 kind of world map(which i thought was gonna be here).Customization looks interesting but too bad it is limited to acessories(rings,earrings,scarfs...).I would realy like to see different armors...
 
well I remember them saying you would get to control a submarine(or your Ship could also go underwater) back at GC. However hearing about the field map is new to me, so that's awesome news. Gah, February seems so far away

and :lol @Hunahan


btw, I see there are some new video interviews up on the LO site, any good information from those?
 
I think I'll be importing a Japanese 360 for this game. After playing through it I'll probably pick up some other Japanese 360 games.
 
US boxart is fairly meh. Oh well.

I am really excited for this game; the new screens are great. Not to mention, the characters look awesome. Lots of females in this game. The soundtrack samples are outstanding.

Man, it was getting lonely in the Maru Maro Fan Club HQ. Welcome aboard.

:D
 
I'm just finishing up Blue Dragon, and I thought I'd want a break from RPGs for a while, but damn does this look awesome! I want it now! I just hope it hits Australia in February as well.

And I think this is one of the rare cases where US boxart>Japanese boxart.
 
Sorry, it's an arts & culture editorial magazine.

Inoue has been featured a few times including cover stories for Vagabond (twice) and Slam Dunk. That 3rd pic is filled with greatness, btw.
