The big statue in the back, which is 3d, is the boss enemy. It moves towards and away from the platform you are standing on. The main way you attack it is through long range attacks, but when it is close you can use melee.
I suspect the battlefield arenas will consist of multiple platform areas like this, and I'd say you either run around the boss in a circular fashion or you teleport from platform to platform so you can attack the boss from multiple angles.

Hard to tell from the scans... but from what I could see, the graphics look pretty good.
In related news, scans for the other Famitsu stuff is coming out. New scans for Arc Rise Fantasia, Rune Factory Frontier, the Pikmin and Donkey Kong Wiimakes and a bigger scan for Blood of Bahamut.
Oh, and GameKyo posted this info:
- The game will feature two protagonists Ibuki and Yui.
- They live in a fortified city built on the back of a giant.
- The giant will wake up during an enemy attack, our heroes must fight and defend their city.
- Cooperative multiplayer mode for up to four players locally available.
- The game will be presented at Jump Festa expo in Japan at the end of the year.

SE has been pretty good lately about releasing their titles outside JP, so hopefully it makes it out at least by this time next year (or earlier).
while I wish this would have been a console game, if the game is fun, i guess it really doesnt matter.

Pretty much. I have no interest in co-op mulitplayer (especially if it's local) and so I hope for a good single player experience too.Rei_Toei said:

Huh? The part where we know next to nothing about the game is the part where one can legitimately get excited. Once we find out some actual information it'll turn out horribly disappointing and there the lamentations of maidenfolk shall pierce the air.
but crystal bearers didn't even look like the original CC :/-Kh- said:
(and you know I mean the revamped crystal bearers, not the one that was originally being planned)
On topic: like said above, not enough info to get excited. I'll wait for direct feed footage, and impressions on controls and gameplay mechanics.

It's a Square Enix game without Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest anywhere in the title.
I don't know about you, but that makes me giddy with anticipation.

It really does look like Bahamuth Lagoon. And according to Gamekyo it is on DS.
Anyway what happens when the giant moves? I mean do they have sealed toilets and nailed silverware?

Because nobody's heard of him, so he's not popular enough to be hated by the cool kids on GAF.

I know it doesn't but just the premise of focusing on the single player game instead of multi, made it really interesting, the flying guy, however, was the least interesting to me.
Anyway gotta support all the other artists in SE if not then the world is going to be ruled by Nomura :lol
OT: just 2 more days to get more info about the game. The sire should open with some screenshots (hopefully a little teaser, and a little bit of info about the story and the gameplay.
If by any chance the site doesn't provide us with all of this, then Jump will.

Admittedly no because I got no 360 nor plan to get one at the moment.
But Square's new IPs on the DS? Totally sweet.

The in-game art style, from the bit I can tell from the scans, reminds me a lot of the Mana games. I don't know why.

This game is going to be neat.

Well, can't say much about the game judging from the pictures, but it looks interesting, at least.
Also, the text on the lower left picture reveals some kind of magnet skill that you seem to be able to use to "gather enemies and mow them down". It's likely that it is the depicted skill. If you can use it on the giant or not is uncertain, but the two hits on the left seem to suggest that it hits all surrounding enemies, giant included.

Wow. Talk about a LACK OF SCALE. This on the DS, though. (Which, I think, is kind of stupid for this kind of premise.)
Looks like it's running on the same engine as Revenant Wings?

This looks neat, but I wonder how the structure of the game will be like, I didn't get any clarity from the trailer.
