They teased too much , unless they playing with their fans . There Are 2 things i've seen and they're probably going to have a "TWIST"
A gate in a desert is always "that" in SO games.
I keep saying this again and again. That girl with pink hair is so creepy.

Holy Shit, that VA! That's Yuu from Charlotte, lol.
Game looks so pretty, I can't wait until it comes west. Hopefully, it's release date is well staggered from FFXV and Persona V so I can devote plenty of time to all three games.
Seems like a perfect summer title to me.
My thoughts exactly. August 2016 IMO.

Yeah, sounds about right, I guess.
So starting in Oct. it's Tales of Zestiria, then December it's Persona 5, then Star Ocean 5 in July/Aug. And maybe an Oct/Nov. release for FFXV?
I'm missign a few other jrpgs out in between those as well.
My goodness, the next year is going to be awesome!
They have always had a few standout aspects:
Great graphics, lots of cutscenes (many good ones, especially the ones to boost the relationships) and awesome battle system. It's a pleasure to play the game. Now the story lines, well, they are somethign else and very unique...
My friend, would you consider marketing the Star Ocean games? I agree with everything you've written, especially this part. And I think it's quite the polite way of expressing the quality of their overarching narratives.

What is it about anything with an anime art style that gives people a free pass to come in and shit up the thread with how much they wish it looked like something else. It'd be like if I went into the latest call of duty thread and whined about how the game would be so much better if I could play as well groomed teenager. Fuck right off into space please.

I hope this game is good....
You should go play Star Ocean 2 immediately, it's a classic.
I have heard a lot of people say this and I actually own a copy of the game that a friend gave to me years ago but never played more than 20 minutes of it.

Sounds about right. 3 and 4 have pretty bleh stories and character dialogue, but their gameplay's fantastic. I enjoyed exploration in those games too.
I'll probably get this later when it's discounted.

Dunno what it is about this series and creepy faces. Yeesh. Still, looking forward to trying it out. And it doesn't look as bad as Star Ocean 4's characters. They looked so much like soulless dolls that I couldn't bring myself to get into the game.

Sigh I guess since X is almost out this is going to be the new game where everyone bitches about the faces in every thread. I like the art style the pseudo plastic look looks really nice and different from a lot of other games. Not sure why so many of you are clamoring for a homogeneity of artstyles.
I guess you could say that technology limitations keep it from jumping the shark like the rest of the series tends to do. It feels more like a really solid fantasy rpg with very light sci-fi elements

I like how anime it is. I'm actually a little disapointed at the heavy into "real people with anime hair" thing that FF team has been doing. Also, World of Final Fantasy feels more KH than FF.
Resonance of Fate was a good comprise between anime look and more realistic.

The old Playstation RPG fan in me wants to like this, but I can't get over the character models. Xenoblade X models look better by comparison.
At least I still have DQXI and FFXV to look forward to.

At first I was like, it looks iight. Then this part of the trailer showed up.
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
And that's the good thing.
Need more to compensate for the lack of JRPGs in the PS3 during 2006-2010

Amazing trailer. Looks fantastic.
Hopefully the combat system lives up to the series. No sign of the crafting system yet.

Amen.
PS4 is a return-to-grace for me based on what's on the horizon. I'm not overly bitter about last-gen -- it forced me to expand my horizons and as a result I not only fell in love with BioWare's output but Naughty Dog's as well -- but my childhood, my adolescence, it's all steeped in solid, quality JRPGs.
If even a few of the following games deliver, I'll feel really good.
-FFXV
-DQXI
-SO5
-Setsuna
-FFVII-R
-New SaGa
-FFA remake
And whatever else I'm forgetting.

It looks incredible. I love it. I really enjoy the character models.
And I'm all about that witch girl.

I'm just burned out on it. It's been the mainstay since it showed up in Advent Children. And it embodies the murder of charm for that series to me.
Very excited. Please let the battle system and crafting be good, and I'll be more than satisfied. One or two characters who aren't shit would just be gravy. Star Ocean 3's cast when you take Nel and Albel instead of Peppita and Roger was so fucking good, not a single annoying character besides maybe Sophie.

Yup, guess SO5 is yet another game I won't be visiting other threads... There's like, less than a handful of posts on the actual game...
I, for one, am thankful they kept this artstyle instead of going with the abomination that was their tech demo.
Either way, the game got delayed for Japan, I wonder if that affected localization too...

Agreed! I think Final Fantasy 11 & 14 are good examples too.
