For some reason he keeps playing the same small section over and over again.

Voice acting is already English (and we already know there's English text) should make a good import.

Just glanced at that stream.

Looks like he's grinding for XP or something.

Game looks very pretty. Gameplay seems reminiscent of Overlord: Raising Hell but without the cool minions. Hopefully there's more to it than just running about beating on things over and over for experience points...

Pictures look amazing.

Gameplay looks kind of bland........but Oblivion isn't too spectacular when you're not playing so maybe it's really good.

Will probably import this if it gets really good reviews.

Morphine · 02-04-2009, 12:15 PM

Looks good, will buy it

Shin-Ra · 02-04-2009, 06:21 PM

Seems to have a better sword, leveled up or whatever because the earlier enemies seem to be going down with a slash/stab or two now.

Guy/gal playing seems to really like replaying this early level.

He just slashed a wooden container holding giant stone balls, releasing them onto a line of enemies ahead.

if its anything like oblivion, im in

Shin-Ra · 02-04-2009, 06:35 PM

He's not really struggling with the regular foes anymore so it's a bit strange.

Physics objects behave too lightly, ragdolls get dragged even crazier than Dead Space and pieces of wood from destroyed barricades etc spin like mad. Should be a quick fix but they decided not to for the JP release.

Excalibur-king · 02-04-2009, 06:35 PM

OMG this looks sick, cant wait to play this, or watch some videos it looks insane..

Demon's Souls..

Monkey · 02-04-2009, 07:00 PM

Looks pretty fun actually. The environments look more interesting than ES:IV's for sure.

Drew664 · 02-05-2009, 03:47 AM

Here is some gameplay. (scroll down a little bit)

http://www.4gamer.net/games/080/G008001/20090204023/

Thought I'd share!

Poetic · 02-05-2009, 04:01 AM

He's playing again live currently, game looks ok.

Shin-Ra · 02-05-2009, 07:17 AM

It's been fun finally seeing new areas, regular foes and bossfights. Trophies for beating bosses! The castle area we've seen played over and over is a combined level-hub with branching paths. There are apparently more hub areas like this, all teleported to from the main hub:

The ghostly images of other players (friendslist only or priority given?) do seem to be recordings helping you find secrets, warn of upcoming dangers and tip you of boss strategies.

Ascended_Saiyan · 02-05-2009, 10:11 AM

It seems to be in English already.

Shin-Ra · 02-26-2009, 01:19 AM

English + Chinese Version import (includes English voice and text)

Quote:

Asian version get!!!

There is artwork on the inside of the cover sleeve, but it is black and white. The manual is completely Japanese, but you do get a handy little foldout of all the critical info which is in English.

Anyone know what it says here on this page? It says 5.1/7.1 audio twice on that page, but 7.1 isn't listed above as one of the available audio tracks, and it only says 5.1 on the back of the case.

SleeperAgent · 02-26-2009, 12:14 PM

Lemme know how it is Shin-Ra. Been thinking about importing this one if they don't announce a US release.

hellmonkey · 02-26-2009, 02:06 PM

OOOO, that nice. I think i might import this after I abuse kz2 for a while.

MacDaddyOJack · 02-26-2009, 02:47 PM

If there is already english voice and text on the Asian version, then I would think that it's only a matter of time before they release a North American version. I'm not forking over the cash for an import yet.

alphapyro · 02-26-2009, 03:13 PM

I'm really interested in this game, are there anymore screenshots? The post from Toxa shows a bunch of red X's for me.. probably because of a firewall

Shin-Ra · 02-26-2009, 11:44 PM

Not my copy check the link if you want impressions. It's pretty hardcore so make sure it's really your thing.
