A countdown appeared on the official Wizardry site. It'll probably end up being a nothingburger, though they were hyping up the 45th anniversary pretty hard last year. https://45th.wizardry.info/
isn't this series now anime, or as I call it ani-GAY?
>>740003375Probably another older remaster like they did for Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord
>>740003375it died in the gacha mines and now its decaying body gets paraded around. Sad to see
Wasn't Wizardry for the past 20 years some weird weeaboo shit with gameplay stuck in the early 90s?
>>740003375I want a game like Daphne but its not being a goddamn gacha game
hasn't some JP company taken over part of the license recently? is it their announcement?
>>740003421atari recently bought the rights to Wiz 1-5 and plans to release remasters, so we're getting non-japanese Wiz games soon.
Remake of 4 would be brutal, wonder if anyone has balls to do it these days, I reckon a lot of the puzzles in it are too obtuse for modern audience. But who knows.I tried PS1 port some years ago, I don't think I made it past second level.
>>740003375Cosmic Forge kino?
>>740003375Is this Jap Wizardry, or Atari wizardry tho?
>>740004061jap wizardry. drecom's logo is in the bottom
>>740003501PS2 Wizardry.
Wizardry 8 NOW
It's going to be $30 for a Knight of Diamonds remaster where every combat encounter takes 10 minutes, and there will be no save import because it's lost technology at this point.
Wizardry logo is really beautiful, 45 years and it's still fresh
>>740004352shits ugly though, i like the 3D artstyle of Daphne
>>740005251i can't think of another game logo that is as soulful as Wizardry's
>>740003375Dracom was retarded to sell sone of the rights to Atari. As if gaming is not plagued enough with games in copyright limbo
This won't be about the remaster shit that Atari's doing, it's Drecom. Probably just WVD getting an update.
>>740003375Wizardry but made by fromsoft in eldenring style
>>740006164>open world blobber by FROMI would be OK with this.
>>740003375why do boomers like hallway games?
>>740006220>Blobber>FromsoftThey'll manage to put the Dark Souls gameplay into Wizardry. Why reinvent the wheel after all?
>>740004150so it means anime or gachameh
It will be gay
>>7400035825 is the only really good game of the first 5 though unless they want to completely redo 4 like the nips did on the PS1 release
Also it doesn't really line up with any of the upcoming events, so a nothing burger
>>740006021Old logos were kino. Nobody tries anymore.
>>740006094>Dracom was retarded to sell sone of the rights to AtariDrecom never owned the rights to Wizardry 1-5, those stayed with Sirotek until Atari bought them.
>>740006259pure RPG gameplay>exploration>combat>level ups & lootno gay cyoa, story, lore dumps, romance, cinematics, or other moviegame bullshit that infest the modern RPG
>>740006164didn't they already try to make a wiz-like with king's field on the psp?
>>740003557>hasn't some JP company taken over part of the license recently?The japanese company Drecom has been the legal owner of the Wizardry IP/Brand since 2020.What you're thinking of is last month's acquisition by Atari, who bought the rights to the original saga directly from the original owner, bypassing Drecom's ownership over rhe rest of the franchise
>>740006259Not even a boomer, hallway maze game is fun since exploration and combat are matters of actual attrition; you actually have to think about what you're doing at all times.
>>740006126they've never done countdowns for major updates. it's either a new game or merch
>>740007534>It's be so fucking funny.
If you didn't beat wizardy 4, you're a tourist
>>740003479You've never played the game
>>740003375It's going to be a Wizardry x Grimwah game announcement
>>740009065Hence I'm asking, do you have a learning disability?
Is there a good reason to trust Atari these days? I haven't been keeping up with them.
Official Busin 0 translation!?
>>740009872Woild be kino
I don't know anything about Wizardry other than thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ioxZDWMHMo
>>740003375It was so surreal when I learned that "Wizardry" games are still being made, but they're some japanese gacha-shit now.What next? Ultima anime on Netflix?
>>740009021The people who playtested it didn't beat it because they just asked for the solutions and then didn't inform the asshole developers that there were no actual clues ingame
>>740009954the game music concert albums have some godly arrangements of classic wiz tracks. you should check out the music from the rest of the series, they have some great music, especially those composed by kentaro haneda.
>>740010059There have been more Japanese Wizardry games and for longer than they were made by Sir Tech at this point.
>>740009872it's fully owned by atlus and they could re-release those two games whenever but they choose not to.
>>740010889Will do, will do
