Cake Attack posted:Nah cause of the va, they either need to license it or dub, and either is too expensive (if they even can license the va). Besides, most of the market would probably have double dipped on this game already. A triple dip on a format that can already play the game is a bit of a risk, to say the least.

Not that it matters, but what are the differences? Just new character artwork and voice acting which won't happen in English anyway?

Cake Attack posted:concerning SC's delays: Jeez, that sounds inexplicably rough. And yeah, on the off chance he somehow comes across this thread: this project and Recettear was the beginning, at least from my point of view, of getting Japanese games/JRPG's on the PC/Steam. At the very least it was on the frontier. It's been a really exciting and fun time to be a fan of this stuff, and I do want to thank him for taking the lead that he has and hope sincerely that he has found some peace. I also feel like a dick for, even jokingly, complaining about the Monster Book being incomplete.

Didn't see any beat poetry, but yeah, if you've ever honestly considered them, the suicide thoughts never ever leave you for good. The struggle just lessens, sometimes. Good for the Drake to be able to put this all down, and out there into the public. Takes quite a bit. I hope it helps. And i hope it gets us more Falcom.

The best you do is figure out ways to drown them out or channel them into something constructive until they fade again. I've already sent my well wishes towards SpaceDrake elsewhere. Wishing the best for him.

Things are pretty far along, though, so hopefully more news will be rolling out over the next couple of months. And thank you dudes for the support, at least.

http://www.esterior.net/2015/01/xanadu-next-domain-www-xanadunext-com-spotted/ Someone found that the domain xanadunext.com has been registered by XSEED. I see good games in our future.

toddy. posted:http://www.esterior.net/2015/01/xanadu-next-domain-www-xanadunext-com-spotted/ Yeah, there's been a hell of a lot of digging around whois with regards to Xseed today. Along with XanaduNext.com, there's CorpsePartyBloodDrive.com, TrailsOfColdSteel.com and LordOfMagma.com. The current thinking is that Lord of Magna would be localised name for Forbidden Magna, and that Trails of Cold Steel is the localised name for Sen no Kiseki.

Localizing Sen before the Crosbell games wouldn't make sense, and those probably won't happen for quite a while (see here, read from the bottom up). Also there's still Sora no Kiseki The Third before either of those games.
|
# ? Jan 1, 2015 18:44 |

just how little sense does it make? like could they theoretically do it and just have some previously established plot points you'd need to figure out yourself, or would things just make no sense without prior games?
|
# ? Jan 1, 2015 18:53 |

Well, I mean, Ar No Surge got translated without the game it was a sequel to being translated.
|
# ? Jan 1, 2015 18:57 |
|
Sen shows the events of Ao from the perspective of the Empire, so while it could technically work, it would basically spoil Ao. But if they're not planning to translate those anyway...sure, why not?

i mean its definitely not ideal, but considering the crossbell arc's immense localization hurdles, i imagine it may be a choice between skipping and not doing anything else with the series. of course, none of this is even confirmed anyway, which is why im posting reasonably instead of just going holy poo poo what e: why is coldsteel assumed to refer to sen no kiseki, it doesnt match up with any other translations for the title ive heard

I think it means 'Trails in the Flash' as in 'flash of steel' so 'coldsteel' kind of works maybe

for a minute there i thought they were giving trails a gritty reboot from the sound of that title.Delusibeta posted:The current thinking is that Lord of Magma would be localised name for Forbidden Magma i'm pretty sure it was magna, not magma. also wasn't that game a massive flop or something?

ImpAtom posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJe6So9MqSc Yeah, that's the theory. Admittedly, the suggestion that Xseed's prepared to go back to the Legends of Heroes franchise so quickly does strike me as a bit wild, hence why it was labelled .

Regardless of the games' sales performance in Japan, it's still Marvellous USA rumoured to be localising a Marvellous game.

I'm pretty hyped for Xanadu Next, it's supposed to be a sort of Japanese equivalent of Diablo unlike the older games.

It controls somewhat similarly to Diablo 1 if you use a mouse/keyboard. It also has gamepad support which makes it play more like a slower Ys game. That's about where the similarities to Diablo end though because the world is not randomly generated (outside of a bonus dungeon but that barely qualifies), enemies have fixed drops, and equipment has fixed stats. It is an incredibly fun game though and all Falcom fans should play it. Don't hesitate to try out both mouse/keyboard and gamepad to see which suits you better.

This is why they localized Sen games in Chinese and Korean after all. It's a new Arc, newer console tech, and they can just do some background shot ala Yakuza or Xenosaga of its needed. Otherwise they will never catch up and series will die on the West. Slow localizations and SC just coming out this year isn't going to cut it. This way they could produce 2 games over 2015 and 2016, and be almost caught up when 3rd game releases. Plus they can build up the audience more in the West. Ideally they would port the games to PS4/PC as well, but that won't happen.

I've never played a TiTS game until a friend of mine bought Trails in the Sky (first chapter?) for me on steam. Spoilers below for people who are new to the game - no seriously, don't click those spoilers unless you've actually beat the game. I just finished the game, and I have to say - a) didn't see that ending coming. Not even remotely. b) alba what the gently caress c) JOSHUA WHAT THE gently caress DUDE, NO, DON'T DO THAT d) YOU MOTHERFUCKER e) When's Second Chapter out?

So, for anyone who is familiar with "Trails of Cold Steel", how much text does it have in comparison to Trails in the Sky?

I don't have an exact figure but the entire series is playing in the same ballpark

Now that I've finished Trails, my Steam recommendations are all dating sims they could at least judge me for my actual bad purchases like Runaway: A Road Adventure
