Vagrant story was kind of a pain to play.
I tried playing it this year to see what it was all about.
The game is purely frustrating.Its like a waaay less accessible PS1 version of souls games.
The game has an interesting premise ,but the gameplay is,dare I say,?bad
Final FantasyTactics II War of the Zodiac Crystal PS4 Exclusive.
The Souls games are a hell of a lot closer to Japanese twisted manga like Berserk than anything western. And gameplay really isn't reminiscent of any western game either. Same goes for Dragon's Dogma. While it's perhaps a bit closer to western art design sensibilities, the combat is far better than any real-time WRPG, way more like Japanese games than cumbersome Elder Scrolls or the like.hmm I mean the Characterdesings, that local artstyle, those medieval helmets.
Never for a second Dragons Dogma gave me a japanese vipe or feeling.
I think it would be good for SE to create a grounded, less turned off Rpg with normal haircuts (many dont like them - i Do) and maybe a story in the direction of Game of Thrones.
Dont know if they could handle something like that, but then they would have an RPG Game for every big gaming market
I doubt it's DQXI, the ps4 installed base in Japan is not there yet.
Could be Star Ocean 5, or something new like The Last Remnant. Doubt it's FF related, too.
I hope it's Square Enix experimenting with smaller, lower budget and shorter RPG games that a small crew that slit out in 18 months without breaking the bank in terms of budget.
Square Enix outlined plans in their financials earlier this month that they wish to revert to a model where they have more mid-tier medium-budget games, instead of their previous model of AAA and mobile games with nothing in between.The odds of this happening are slimmer than the thinnest phone.
Nah the gameplay isn't bad, it's just a mash up of real time and tactical gameplay through menus. You either get it or you don't. I've very rarely seen an in between opinion on the gameplay.
Home console?They said console game though. >_>
The game isn't coming out tomorrow or anything.
Sure, but the DQ games always come to the system with the biggest installed base in Japan. and that system is the 3DS right now. Plus DQVII remake WAS on 3DS, so that's something in its favor.
I wouldn't expect a console DQ game. Just not worth it for SE if they want to maximize revenue. DQ isn't that dependant on visuals like FF. If I had to bet, my money would be on 3DS getting DQXI.
Gotta start that 9 year development cycle some time.Final Fantasy XVI
I said this on another thread. If they make FFX-3 I really want it to be the one where Tidus kicks a bomb that looks like a blitzball and dies.Dear god, I'm hoping for DQXI or TWEWY2. Or...or...FFX-3

It's going to be a remake, and it's going to be mobile. Even if they emphatically state otherwise I've come to expect it too much.
That could work.I said this on another thread. If they make FFX-3 I really want it to be the one where Tidus kicks a bomb that looks like a blitzball and dies.
Horii says otherwise: http://gematsu.com/2014/06/dragon-quest-xi-development-underway

Seriously, if Matsuno and some other experienced staff worked on it, I might cry tears of joy.This would make me legit hyperventilate.
They probably are going to make it for the PS4 solely because Horii wants to regardless of things like maximizing revenue.Sure, but the DQ games always come to the system with the biggest installed base in Japan. and that system is the 3DS right now.

Then DQ 9 will be an action RPG.They probably are going to make it for the PS4 solely because Horii wants to regardless of things like maximizing revenue.

....wut? You realize those two games are the biggest budget titles SE has, and in FFXV's case, likely the most expensive title they've ever made? You might as well save yourself the trouble and be disappointed now, because your wish isn't coming true. Even if the game is DQXI, it won't be as balls to the walls huge as FFXV promises to be.I just hope it's at least at the same level of FFXV and KH3 in term of budget. I'll pick a PS4 next year anyway.
SE: Please be excited!
Well Portables are consoles too, arent they?True, true, it could be microconsoles.
It'd be pretty cool if this was a new Star Ocean game. People will still find a way to be disappointed, even if that's the case, because they believe not announcing DQXI somehow detracts from the obvious fact that it exists and is being worked on.
Ever since i saw this tech demo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cuXgRVMvZ0
im dreaming of a next gen Star Ocean Game.
It's a shame we will never see it in action.
That's not SE's problem and these titles aren't going to fix the problem.I think they should only because if they dont, then consoles are gonna truly die in Japan.
They need to invest in backing consoles again.

My hype for this event has risen so much.

Yeah I'm lost why everyone is just mentioning home consoles...It could very well be a 3DS game.
