I'm really looking forward to seeing more on this game! Hate to be yet another one of those guys, but hopefully it comes to Switch.
Looks awesome and since it's UE4 it could be on Switch.
If not then I'll get it on PS4!
This ones throwing me for a loop in terms of gameplay, reminds me of a few different games:
The AI partner and Action-RPG focus reminds me of Dragons Dogma.
The way the blood veil is described and the relationship between it and mutating into a "lost" reminds me of Soul Sacrifice.
And the overall trailer invokes some memories of Dark Souls, although it has a more anime-based art style.
I love all three, so day one for me. Cant wait to see gameplay.
I hope for some measured responses from the people who are absolutely certain it's coming to Switch even despite evidence to the contrary, once the platform announcement is made.
I expect to be disappointed.
Phil's trip to Japan?
Yes. People expecting every single UE4 game from Japan to come to Switch, especially right now probably need to re-calibrate expectations.
I think it's more just that Dark Souls sells really well on Xbox.Phil's trip to Japan?
I highly doubt this is coming to the NS. Hope I'm wrong, though. Just seems like a type of game they'll figure has no market on the system.
The blood stuff and AI buddies largely derive from God Eater 2.
The whole game even had sledgehammer subtlety about it, where you were part of the Blood Unit and had special blood powers, and if your blood got infected, you would turn into a monster.
FROM is now owned by the huge Japanese media conglomerate that is Kadokawa, they likely want to expand internally developed games and bolster their own game publishing front.I guess this marks the end of Bandai Namco's relationship with From Software.
I'll probably get this on PC because its probably unlikely there won't be a Switch version.
However why is that people are saying there wouldn't be an audience for this type of game on a Nintendo system? Isn't it a bit foolish to say that and I'm willing to bet a bunch of people would want this type of game on the go because I know I would.

How would they figure that? By not releasing it? not saying it's coming, it seems it does not, but this kind of argument is strange.
Looks closer to Soul Sacrifice tbh.
self fulfilling prophecy
One of the big arguments used when not bringing games to Nintendo platforms. It's a silly argument, but it's used all the time. With the type of game, I think the NS probably isn't in consideration for a game like this. I hope that isn't the case, though.
I disagree, Bamco has always been big on Vita and PS3. I imagine they'll be refocusing those efforts on Switch. Tales Of is already confirmed.
Hope it is on pc at least so its preserved for future generations.

I believe the only Namco games to not make it onto PC recently are the ones by Media.Vision and Aquria.
For the record, I believe this posters is being sarcastic about the preservation stuff.
Im sure there is audience for anime souls. In fact I'd argue there is more of an audience for something that looks and sounds anime on a Nintendo system than Xbox.
But no the argument of there is no audience makes sense.
It sounds like a hunting game with more rpg elements.
The name of the genre is dramatic exploration action RPG. The exploration action RPG genre has players tensely exploring seamlessly connected areas on foot, which offers a great sense of accomplishment. The team put a lot of thought into how it could improve on that formula.

Why would he be? It's definitely something I care about, even with games that didn't even come out. It's why I'm getting my Kickstarter Edition of Bloodstained on PC when it comes out.
Who the fuck advertizes a Japan only game with a spin on a marketing slogan for the English version of a game?
It's coming internationally or Bandai Namco has gone fully nuts.

Yeah, for some god forsaken reason I read NA, not NS. Sorry about that!I'm thinking NS means Nintendo Switch.
Because he's been vocal about how preservation is a silly argument
If "God Eater team" is how they plan to push the game in Japan I'd say he is a lock.Hope Go Shiina is working on the music.
Tales is a franchise aimed primarily at the domestic (Japanese) market and only secondarily at overseas markets. This sounds like it's going for the Souls audience, which means primarily or at least equally targeting overseas markets, which in turn means that from their perspective, they can probably afford to keep it effectively PS4-exclusive in Japan (as PC and XB1 will obviously never be terribly relevant there).
But of course, that's just speculation and I could be wrong.
As others have said, this also doesn't sound like it fits the publisher-perceived* Nintendo platform demographics particularly well.
*I think said perception is largely correct, but feel free to disagree.
