it finally released
>>743434059pancensorship status?
I wish I could still enjoy non Ys Falcom games, but I think I burnt myself after too many mediocre Kiseki games.
>>743434059no thanks
>>743434782Modern Ys isn't even that great, for that matter.
>>743434782Never played the Kiseki games but I recently did Xanadu Next, Sorcerian and Faxanadu (I know, not technically Falcom but whatever). Fun stuff. Currently playing through Tokyo Xanadu and it's kinda shit but I like the pick up and play nature of it with the bite sized dungeons.
>>743434175Thisshow the goods or vacate
>>743434847it really isn't, but I can play oath in felghana or origins a million times and find enjoyment. I'd kill myself before playing another Kiseki game. I have no idea why the fanbase is so rabid, those games are fucking slop.
>>743434059i will pirate it
>>743434059>high school
>Japanese only>no English whatsoever What the fuck?!
>>743434847I marathoned through all the Ys games last year and the quality drop is really fucking noticeable. I did Proud Nordics this year and it...just wasn't good. The Napishtim engine games were peak and 8 was was the best of the new games but 4, 7, 9 and 10 were just eh. I'd rather replay 1 or 2 than go through those newer games again and that's with me having some PTSD from the bosses in 1. Ironically, I played through all the Ys games because I played through Xanadu Next and THAT game is fucking kino.
I want a Xanadu Next remake with better combat
>>743435413I'm probably in the minority for thinking X's combat was really fucking good, there's a nice rhythm and it feels very satisfying to pull off duo attacks. I enjoyed it way more than the mess that was the triple swap system that defined the previous 4 games.
>>743435756>it feels very satisfying to pull off duo attacksYou are just a Karjafag
>>743435380>oh no( I’m literally being forced to listen to the best possible voice actors and not subject myself to beneath the bar dub actors >I’m literally being raped by superior Japanese actors Kek
>>743435881Trust me, the game would instantly be one of my favourites if instead of Karja we got Dogi as a partner. We're long overdue another playable Dogi.
>>743436016As if this was the problem, the problem is it not even having English TEXT.
>>743435756The regular combat was fine but I didn't like the naval combat and the naval exploration was kinda shit too. There was too much open space and it took too long to travel until later in the game. I'm sort of sick of the raid system by now too, so having the raids tied to the naval combat is something I didn't care for.

>Chinese version onlyIs the English version coming later?>mixed review already
>>743434059It's a metroidvania right? Show some gameplay. Is it 90% story 10% gameplay?
>>743434059I heard the gameplay went back to side scrolling like the original Xanadu. Is it actually mechanically similar? Or is this another Xanadu in name only? >>743434782Try out Brandish. Most people would probably recommend the PSP port, and it's certainly not bad, but I felt like it was way too easy compared to the SNES port, at least at the beginning. >>743434994Faxanadu's really interesting to me, because after I played the original Xanadu I came back to it and noticed how many ideas from the original game seemed to be planned but ultimately cut. Notice how there's things like trainers and food vendors that basically only heal you when you use their services and nothing else. Xanadu Next was pretty cool, really liked that game. Still waiting for the PC88 Sorcerian stuff to get translated since there's scenarios that were only for PC88. What version did you play?
>>743437598I would assume it's the same as the first game, which was Cold Steel but with modern Ys gameplay. Very linear dungeons and you get ranked after them like it's a Sonic game.
it's a woke dei game that the message is immigration is le good
>>743434059>no EnglishTime to do it like chinks: buy the game, negative review saying "No English = trash game", then refund.
>>743438357So like Metaphor it will get dozen of awards including from nip zog?
>>743434059How bad is the localisation?
>>743438762There's no localization because it's not available in English.
>already irrelevantNu-Falcom at it's finest

>>743441527B A S E DASED
>>743441527Preordered instantly in 4 years when it actually gets localized.
Can I romance the girls?
>>743442368It's a Falcom game so probably.
>>743435756The character control as I would define it was pretty good if not the best for the free camera Ys era. The combat itself lacked balance with regular blocks being overpowered, blue attacks demanding no timing and no attacks in the game wanting you to jump over them like in previous games (a constant pitfall where jumping is useless in combat as opposed to the previous games). Still it was generally a fun time fighting anything. If they had a bit more variety for enemies and placed them in more annoying places it would be very good.
>>743435756I haven't played it yet. Them releasing proud nordics just as I bought the original soured me on the whole thing and though I did actually sell my original copy and buy that enhanced version I still haven't played it yet. Though I still have Oath to play through and I think I want to do that first.
