I would agree, but with a Japanese/anime product, after the FATE and Azure announcement, and other Japanese projects using the UE4 engine coming to the console, it would make (some) sense to develop it ALSO for Switch, imho.
And Bandai Namco is also used to support Nintendo console with at least few game
I agree that if this is actually NOT coming to Switch, it would be an additional info to "learn" next time that, even if it would make (some) sense for a Japanese company to develop a game ALSO for Switch, we should expect it to NOT doing it
ok,thanks.
Yup, better cancel them ASAP
Btw, thanks; I like the images I've seen.
Switch or PS4, I'll be interested anyway

I just want to see gameplay. I'm not too concerned with how it looks.

Teaser had me interested but the God Eater art style is so atrocious I'm completely turned off

I'm glad its not another Souls game. Those are becoming played out just like Assasin's Creed.

I actually responded to this post earlier, but wanted to add: what does this have to do with Switch replacing Vita? This is clearly aimed at the Souls audience, and Vita didn't get any of those games.

Sumo Digital already showed you how to downscale an UE4 game to the Switch. You weren't paying attention?

Damn, it looks really cool!
My point is considering Dark Souls has a potential audience of 2-3 million while God Eater's one is negligible conflating them in marketing is going to hurt the goodwill with the former way more than actually expanding the latter.

I was.
Now it's better to hold horses until a third party confirms a Switch port.
It would make sense to port, Yeah. We know how things turn out generally.
And we don't know jack shit about this game.
You're the one with the handle Crazy Diamond though. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

That fuzzy hat in the artwork looks dumb as hell.

Oh for fuck's sake... Why did they have to ruin the awesome artstyle from the teaser?

THIS LOOKS AMAZING
The new screenshots of the game from the magazine scans look fantastic! It looks like a sort of hybrid of God Eater and Bloodborne, I love it! I love the enemy designs, and the environments look a heck of a lot more detailed than the ones in God Eater did.

No they didn't.
It's not because you can downscale a game with UE4 that you can downscale everything with UE4.
It depends on what you're doing with the engine and while something like Snake Pass can be downscaled for obvious reasons, it doesn't mean something like FFVIIr for exemple can be.
wait how do we know its not soulslike?
Because it looks God Eater like.

In term of art it sure does, but in term of how it plays ?

Probably one of the 20 Switch titles I reckon.

Scans look real good. Nice to see a cool new IP from Namco. It's been a while.
Obviously we can't say for certain until we see footage but having an AI buddy and the weapons in the screenshots are very God Eater.
that's just a crop of the scan.

I don't know how this is aimed at the souls audience when it looks anime as fuck.
Like don't get me wrong I like anime but I don't see how this would attract that kind of audience.

I would hope people would be more worried about the gameplay rather than an "anime as fuck" style. But I know that's too much to ask for some people.
I got it from the Gematsu link posted above. Is it wrong to post or something?
yeah we are not allowed to post scans here other than cover or ones officially posted by the magazine site itself.
Finally got around to checking out the screenshots and I think they look good. I find that recently, I'm more into the anime style of games for some reason. This is why Tokyo Mirage Sessions really resonated with me. I definitely want more of that sort of thing. I hope the gameplay is good. Too bad it didn't have the same art style as the teaser trailer.
People are worrying about what they can see.
Tough to worry about gameplay when there are no details and no footage.

The gameplay sounds like Souls and it's explicitly aimed at a worldwide audience.
Mind you, I didn't say that it was well-targeted at the Souls audience, since I agree that the anime art direction will probably turn off a lot of the fans of that style of gameplay, but I suspect that that's the publisher's thinking here.

GFX and art style don't look bad .

I was replying to this part
Hence why I said I hope people would pay attention to the gameplay more than the art style.
But that's where I got it? I don't get it.
Someone posted a Gematsu link. I got the screenshot from there. The Gematsu link wasn't taken down.
