About The Author
There won't be a news video for November, on holiday for most of the month.
“The Oaf in Felghana” had me snickering. Enjoy your holiday.✌🏻
Great for faster realeses but i can already see pepple complain about it
This video's background song from CS4, if I remember correctly, makes me miss that game all over again 😭😭
Xenoblade X is not an Action RPG. It has real time battles but your attack hits and evation are still determined by stats.
I also recommand a lot the game 8 Bit Adventure 2. The console version just release weeks ago. 🙂
I have 3 things to say about the recent Kondo interview:
1) Regarding Trails in the Sky the 1st Remake, Kondo hasn't confirmed yet whether treasure chest notes/jokes will make a comeback or not? (I REALLY HOPE THEY DO! >_<)
2) Regarding Smash, why not have Rean (beloved by many and a main character material) be the pick for Smash with Valimar The Ashen Knight being part of his Final Smash?
3) After the "series finale/story conclusion", my dream is that Falcom CONTINUES to do more Trails games in the form of standalone prequels to older events in the Trails lore that are still a mystery (like "The Great Collapse" incident, "The Salt Pale" incident, "D.G. Cult" era, "War of the Lions" era, or even "Swin & Nadia" origins story before their appearance in Reverie).
Gakuin Makyo ~High School Crisis~ interested me a lot as I love dungeon crawlers, but then I saw its art is made with AI… and now I don't want to support it.
Still waiting for some Tokyo Clanpool news, it's supposed to be in 2024 on Steam and Switch, but it's almost end of 2024 already and not even Steam page available…
I would love a remaster of Pandora's Tower and The last story. They were Nintendo exclusive for the wii, so imagine if they were on pc and playstation 4&5
I don't know if I missed it, but who's the character ln the right on the thumbnail? It looks drawn by Kozaki Yusuke but I can't seem to find it
9:23 ai art on a dungeon rpg 🤮🤮
I feel that Tales of the Abyss and Symphonia have some of the best stories is the Tales series. These games just need some serious quality of life updates to improve them over getting the 7th unchanged Symphonia rerelease……
Love Ryza but the number of figures for her is getting ridiculous. Just want more Kotobukiya Trails figures, looking forward to Joshua and Elaine but need more!
So many insane games coming out, no time to play them all. So excited for Xenoblade Chronicles X port though, I've been asking that for years and years.
When I saw the Mokoto statue, my first thought was "I'm buying that!"……….. then you said the price XD
You left it out but Falcom also said they are considering using AI translation for trails opposite with the Nisa interview in another interview Kondo done. I hope they will not use AI translation until the current Trails is over. Once trails is over they can start using their AI translation because I wont investing myself with their AI translation
0:22 …Welp, time to go feed my TTRPG addiction by combining it with my Ys addiction.
I've always thought Nihon Falcom was a slightly above average JRPG dev, at least under Imageepoch.
ps5 pro pc handhelds like steam deck mobile gaming like new iphone15 max pro are killing Nintendo
In House Game Engines can be a disaster look at Cyberpunk and them going to UE with future titles
I just wanna tell the information of platform Ys Memoire Oath in Felghana won't release on PC from what i see in news portal also you didn't mention Switch platform on Ys Memoire Oath in Felghana for West. That confused me for a second when i hear it.
Falcom is seriously riding that hype train Y's 8 & Trails into Reverie started. If only Bandai Namco was like them concerning Tales. It's good that they're finally acknowledging the remaster business, but they shoulda done that as soon as Arise became a big hit. I mean, they seriously gotta think about remastering Abyss when they know full-well it's a fan-favorite?
When Daybreak 2 releases on February, only Kai would remain unlocalized. I really really hope Kai also releases next year and Falcom decides to launch the Trails in the Sky remake, Ys 11, or the new Xanadu game on the same day in the west and Japan.
Cannot wait for trails into sky. Remake little annoying its switch timed and won’t look that good either way imma get it
Baiting us with that Kozaki Yusuke art on the title card only for it to be a Japan only game
So sad that Xenoblade Chronicles X definitive edition is going to be censored in line with the western release for Wii U. Hard to call it the definitive edition when it's missing the boob slider and most of the best outfits from the original Japanese release…
Fuck, Daybreak 2 in the same month as Monster Hunter? I am doomed
Oh boy, more games with sleepytime turn-based combat, linear hallways, and ridiculous difficulty spikes! Can't wait to skip 'em all! 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I'd totally be down for Adol in Smash!
As long as it's NISA handling western releases, it'll never get better, they'd rather attack the fans doing their own translation from the Korean CLE PC version and sit on their thumbs for years than do their job. really pathetic in the age of global simultaneous releases.
