Looks to be an interesting game.....

I really hope the storyline is better than Star Ocean 4's though..... same with dialog.

Wow Sega x tri-Ace.

I know I've heard of this type of girl somewhere before!

Lol, same here.

[Tornix]

I'll have to keep an eye on this one.

A Multiplatform-JRPG possibly released on the same time with no time exclusivity? Sega you're doing things right. Now as a multiplatform owner I'm torn to whether getting this for PS3 or 360...

[Shinndou]

I'll get the version which possibly has dual audio with a japanese track. Chances are it might be the PS3 version. If both versions do then I'll get the 360 one since it's cheaper for me.

Kind of disappointed it's not Radiata 2 or Valkyrie Profile 3 though.

The battle system will probably be awesome at least.

I'm not sure expecting good dialogue from tri ace is wise.

Other than that, zero interest in this. Shooting combat system, boring brown colour palette... forget it.

[Duo Maxwell]

After all the Tales of Vesperia, Eternal Sonata and Star Ocean 4, darker theme like this one gets me interested a lot.]
Btw, what's "shooting combat system"?

[Sciel]

From the screenies it looks like you can move around while in combat , then when you select an action then it sort of plays out (eg : you firing or some special move).
Anyhows , this does look interesting but since its partially by Tri-Ace , -5 hype level :| .

[Duo Maxwell]

Not quite, because it's not Tri Ace x S-E, just -2 for hype level.

[Keroko]

An RPG without a medieval setting? And multi-platform too? Now this I'm going to keep an eye on.

[Hamchan]

The thread title sounds just like the one in NeoGAF, teasing us and forcing us to click on it :P

I'm really hyped for this game since i've loved the tri-ace stuff this gen, even if the stories were kinda crap.

wished it was cell shaded .......

[Sety]

I'm mixed on this.

One one hand Tri-Ace can't do anything right, its been dissapointment after dissapointment after goddamn failure.

On the other Sega are on a roll lately concerning RPG's.

How so? Certainly I've been disconnected from the console world since... well, since the days of Playstation one, but at least till then they had always get it right.

[Shinndou]

The only thing that ticks me off is the character design of the male lead. I know it's not the first time I see this and I should get used to it, but damn he looks too feminine, I find it hard to identify myself with him when playing. The guy with the ponytail is far better designed, in my opinion.

Well its hard to not get it right back then since they had only made like 3 games by PSOne era. But if you're not so critical than some of the tri-ace stuff won't really bother you but heres what I know alot of my friends and I didnt like about their recent titles.

-Valkyrie Profile 2 left alot to be desired on what was an amazing setup by the first game, it stumbled over itself in story.

-Star Ocean 3 played like the retarded cousin of the "Tales of" games and story wasn't much better either also a general criticism is how we're in a high tech future and still look like hobos.

-Infinite Undicsovery is pretty much uncontested the worst RPG ever made this generation. Unplayable, uninteresting and some of the worst game design ever.

-Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume had a horrendous soundtrack and messed up game balance with essentially only two difficulty modes. Boring walk in the park and I'LL KILL ALL YOUR FIRST BORN CHILDREN, no middle ground.

-Star Ocean 4 had irritating dialogue, bizzarre localization changes, really creepy character designs which looked more like out of a eroge and level design was rather annoying. However unlike 3 it actually had a pretty good plot which at least puts it at pretty decent since story is important for RPG's.

-Radiata Stories was pretty much the best thing they did recently and that was like the first game they made for PS2.
