reksas , in Square Enix is still working hard on indie/small-scale games, CEO says

But whole point of indie/small-scale games is that they aren't made by big companies like square enix

I'm not sure about indie games, but games of the Star Ocean or Valkyrie Profile franchise are not AAA games and they would never get a big buget for production because they most like doesn't sell that much. I would consider them small-scale games. Also World of Final Fantasy was a nice spinoff with a much lower buget that the big AAA games. I don't think SE have to do always big budget games and it's also nice for them to test things out. The indie jrpg market is not that big that a nice indie production wouldn't get any recognition anymore if it's done well.

Yeah, I think if the interviewer was asking questions in English, they probably would have used the term "AA" or "small" for the type of games in question.

Semantics aside, everyone here knows what Kiryu is talking about.

All of my favorite indie games are from Squenix!

Also, my favorite home-cooked meal is a #4, supersized.

I didn't think about pikmin, but since you farm monster, i guess it's the better comparison.

Helllll yeeeeeeah

johannesvanderwhales , in Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero – Announcement Trailer

Love phantom brave so great to see a sequel. But ugh I hate the 3d engine.

How many here have played the original Shin Megami Tensei V? I played it a bit, but i didn't like the Switch performace, so i put it on hold.

Ashtear ,

About the same reaction I had. Loved the MC's design but once I put it down for something else I ended up not picking it up again before having to return it to the library. Was planning on checking it out again until this version (and especially the PC port) got announced.

Looks nice. Too far away though (2026), and I am wary of projects that go for kickstarters these days.

Good luck to the devs!

tamlyn OP Mod ,
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

I know a person that has supported a Kickstarter game about 10 years ago. Dev is constantly Posting updates, so it's not silent, just takes a lot time. 2 years is very short

slimerancher ,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Wow, 2 years might be short but 10 year is way too long. Hope they finally get the game one day.

SoleInvictus ,

I see you too follow Heart Forth, Alicia.

Ashtear ,

And here I'm thinking it's not far enough, considering how sparse the trailer was (and there's virtually zero additional footage on their Kickstarter page). That said, they've already raised half of their goal. Between this and Runa, it'd be cool if we ended up with a successful western Europe JRPG dev.

I certainly see the Chrono Cross and Lost Odyssey influence. Hopefully the combat pace is quite a bit quicker than the latter.

slimerancher ,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Heh, that's a valid point. I just can't get myself excited for something that I won't be able to play for years.

It's possible they aren't going for a huge game, a good 10 hour or so game would be pretty neat, IMO.

Ashtear ,
@Ashtear@lemm.ee avatar

Yeah, I'm all for some shorter experiences among all the marathon JRPGs we've been getting.

RavenFellBlade , in Persona 3 Reload's Episode Aigis Expansion Releasing in September - RPGamer
@RavenFellBlade@startrek.website avatar

Feel like I'm not likely to pull the trigger on another version of P3 unless it has all of the content included in previous versions. No Kotone, no sale.

tamlyn OP Mod ,
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

That's fair. Would be better if Kontone would be included.

Ashtear ,
@Ashtear@lemm.ee avatar

Same reason I never picked it up. They certainly sounded like it was never going to happen in interviews, but this was also Atlus' best launch for a title ever, so who knows.

RavenFellBlade ,
@RavenFellBlade@startrek.website avatar

I can't understand why on Earth they would release another incomplete version of the game when this is very clearly the best opportunity to release a definitive version with all content. It comes off as either tone deaf to their audience, or as a crass attempt to milk yet another future release with the P3P Kotone content added.

Ashtear ,
@Ashtear@lemm.ee avatar

I believe them when they said it was just not in their budget. This already was their largest Persona in terms of voiced character lines, much less all the other development that would go into the option. Disappointing for sure, but I'm not at all surprised.

I genuinely don't think we're seeing her in a future DLC or re-release.

Chefdano3 , in Persona 3 Reload's Episode Aigis Expansion Releasing in September - RPGamer
@Chefdano3@lemm.ee avatar

Isn't that already out?

tamlyn OP Mod ,
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

The game Persona 3 Reload is already out and the expansion pass is also obtainable. But the Aigis Episode is part of the expansion pass that get released in September. This episode is part of the enhanced version of the original Persona 3 is get released as part of the expansion pass instead of a special edition

Chefdano3 , (edited )
@Chefdano3@lemm.ee avatar

Oh, I thought that part of the DLC was out already, but I didn't realize the the answers part wasn't included yet. It's kind of a rip off, seeing how it's not part of the premium edition that is supposed to include all DLC.

tamlyn OP Mod , (edited )
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

It's part of the premium edition, just not out yet. There is only one Expansion pass

tamlyn OP Mod ,
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

I was wrong, there is a dlc pack with costumes and personas and there is the expansion pass. you were right, the premium edition has only the dlc pack, not the expansion pass.

tamlyn Mod , in New Turn-Based RPG Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Announced
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

I think it looks kinda good...but i really don't like quick time events in turn based games. Seems to be, the game system ist build arround it.

Ashtear OP ,
@Ashtear@lemm.ee avatar

Yeah, a lot of people don't like them. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a setting/accessibility option for it.

tamlyn Mod ,
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

I put that game on maybe, but it after a lot tests/reviews and probably big dicount staple. I will find that out for sure before

Ashtear , in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Reviews
@Ashtear@lemm.ee avatar

91 is a rather high score for PC Gamer, and they are usually hard on games for technical issues over there. Good sign for those of us that were waiting for a PC port.

It was a bit to much for me at 3am. I think i will get it when the game is released.

slimerancher , in What are your thoughts about the Dragon Quest series, what are your favorite titles or gameplay elements?
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I like those blue slimes...

tamlyn OP Mod ,
@tamlyn@lemmy.zip avatar

I expect you to use the slime controller on playstation and nintendo systems...don't tell me the truth

Lycist , in What are your thoughts about the Dragon Quest series, what are your favorite titles or gameplay elements?

Not a fan, the artwork is great, can't say much about the story as I don't think I've ever made it more than 10 hours into one of the games...

The music really throws me off, it doesn't fit the setting or the going-ons at all. There will be this big dramatic scene, lots of tension, and fucking upbeat circus music plays.

I can't do it.

TrousersMcPants ,

What? I love the dragon quest music, it fits the adventurous theme so well
