I'm slowly coming around to this but there are two things that dirks me here. The character art, I hate it, egg headed folks. I wish they used the more angled manga art seen in Jeanne D'Arc. Also, as some other posters here suspect, I bet invisible walls aren't far away.

But it seems so smooth and beautiful and having an online side of things makes it really interesting. I'm kinda divided.

According to Famitsu PS2, WKS is 10% complete.
It's gonna be a long wait.

I wonder what the game will look like at 30%!

10% complete... :lol :lol :lol
Hope they didnt bs the video shown at TGS. :/

 

[Wollan]

God, percentages is such a meaningless way to determine production. Does this mean it will take 10 years to build the game? Ugh.

On a serious note, 10% has been known and discussed since 20 pages back on this thread. It said 10% back at TGS

Also some developers are very conservative about their percentage numbers. For a lot of developers just getting a 3D engine up and running counts as 30-50%. I wouldn't doubt the WKS vid. L5 isn't known for any kind of tricks.

Like I said earlier in the thread, White Knight Story will be Dec, 2007 in Japan. I'd bet my hat on it. US release judging by other L5 games is probably closer to mid-2008.

Well I hope... Even though what has been shown doesnt really seem out of this world.

Yeah right! They played the BIGGEST trick on me with thier TFLO game! They show it off and then get it canceled. That was a cruel trick. never forget :-(



Anyway, this game animates beautifully.

it will appear to jump out of the screen at you, and at 100%... you will live it.

Already posted? SCE has just distributed the lastest batch of media to the game publications. Half of them are screens from the trailer, but many new illustrations of locales, enemies and other inhabitants.

I'm sure there isn't anything to doubt about the outcome of the game but ... as mentioned - TFLO was apparently 95% complete at TGS , was playable 'over internet'...

then it's canned because the netcode was a shambles :/

Things happen, things get delayed , situations change - the whole "we're 10% etc done" thing , given the usual state of video game project planning, is probably best ignored no matter who is saying it!

since 20 pages back on this thread. It said 10% back at TGS

most people at TGS didn't see it at TGS it would seem - Can you fill the blanks - did it say "10% complete" at the end or something?

The 10% comes from the Famitsu article. They always have a random general estimate bar at the end of every preview.

Man that Dengeki article has some awesome art. Saving it all to disk!

 

[klee123]

Sooo excited about this game. I personally loved Dark Cloud 2, DQVIII and Rogue Galaxy so this is naturally a no brainer for me.

Oh, now the lava city/boss and treant are totally making me excitement.

 

[u_neek]

Apart from the character design that's a bit dull this is one of my most wanted PS3 games..

 

[Holtz]

So pretty.

 

[Mr. Pointy]

This game should ****ing rule.

 

[WalkMan]

Pure Awesomeness. Definitely a hint of Shadow of the Collossus, but not in entirely the same fashion.

 

[GeoramA]

I can say without any hesitation, this my most wanted game for any system.

 

[klee123]

Good god the art rocks. I also really like the character art, which is IMO better than a lot of the stuff Square-enix pushes out nowadays.

 

[SolidSnakex]

This is going ot be really awesome if you can stand on the edge of this "town" see the turtle moving from place to place.

 

[brandonh83]

I really hope that's a

not

boss fight.

 

[Magicpaint]

I've always been a strong supporter of the game's art direction. Those art pics ROCK.

 

[Amir0x]

I really hope that's a

boss fight.

it's a city, which you go to

 

[brandonh83]

I know, I just think it'd make for a crazy boss fight.

 

[Pureauthor]

Characters are simple, but visually pleasing. Environments are pretty standard medieval fantasy stuff (humongous city turtle aside).

The monsters though... Gorgeous. Lovely. Brilliant. Wonderful.

*goes to find a thesaurus*

Piquant. Gustable. Marvelous. Astounding. Beautiful. Stunning.

Awesome.

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

I don't know who is behind the character artworks, but it really reminds me of valkyrie profile ones, in style though. The faces are more anime-esque but the clothes share the style to me.

And all the SotC scent rocks.

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

I'm not usually one to drool over concept art, at least not pre-release, but this is good stuff. If they can come at least close to turning these concepts into game assets, then this game will at the very least be an artistic treat.

 

[Bad_Boy]

the art to 3d transfer in this game is pretty damn cool ...
