Hopefully we get a good or great PC version, though it'll definitely have launch issues which have to get ironed out. Only scary thing so far is how close the beta testing session is vs. launch, but maybe NISA's been doing private betas already?I don't see any reason outside of bad optimization, that the PC version should be bad.
Seems like others are noticing the mediocre localization work by NISA on this title. It's not like VIII has a super great story, but English players deserve a better representation of it after the renditions we've gotten from fans and then XSEED.
OK all embargo is up im about to start playing it on PS4 Pro, tell me what you want me to test or checkout and ill get to it and fill you all in.
Cheeky of NISA to get reviews for this out the same day Ys Seven PC launches.

I'd really like to know if there are any enhancements on HD TVs. Apparently the game runs at a higher resolution on 4K TVs.

It really does, though... It's a real shame that it seems people won't realize it as much from the localization. I thought those criticisms of a weak story and cast were strange; almost everyone else I know agrees that they're some of the best in the series.
It's 4k60 on Pro.
How many times can one teenager save the world??
The demo doesn't downsample/supersample on a Pro @1080P.OK all embargo's are up im about to start playing it on PS4 Pro, tell me what you want me to test or checkout and ill get to it and fill you all in.

and that answers that

Is it supported in the final game?
are you talk about the jagged edges on the ship deck!? still seeing them! want pics?
Thanks.
No, it doesn't really. XD I asked specifically what the Pro enhancements on HD TVs are. At least the demo did not downsample.
So you play on an HDTV? If the game would downsample/supersample from native 4k on HDTVs there would be virtually no aliasing/jagged edges. No downsampling then.
Yeah, pics wouldn't hurt.
Nope.Sorry if this has been asked before, but does this have cross save between PS4 and Vita?

... 3 times?
The two are functionally different games because of all the extra content in the PS4/PC versions.
How many times a teenager can save the world before he grows out of his 20s? Probably never seeing how you'd be hard pressed to look for a jrpg protagonist that's over 25, and they'll make a point of sayin he's a rugged veteran by that age, but most are below 20 anyways.How many times can one teenager save the world??

Is it a remake? Tested the demo on a ps4, and I felt that the graphics were pretty rough.
I did want to play more, however.

Does GAF think that's Ys VIII is the better game compared to Celceta or is it the opposite?

Plots are self-contained with references to other games in the timeline. All games except Origin are based on Adol Christin's travel journals, sometimes with recurring characters who play passive or active roles in the current plot per game. You can play other entries later but it's not critical for VIII whatsoever.Do you need to have played any of the other Y's games to know what's going on?
Overall it should help both games, but I'm also not expecting Seven to do too great in the first place. Tom @ XSEED's hinted that it's really a pet project for the company since their next original localizations are due next year or later, so they got in touch with another Japanese port team in order to build a relationship and get some revenue/following for the game on PC.it was more of a coincidence than anything, i'd bet. xseed had announced the release date just three weeks ago and nisa would have been planning on the embargo date lifting ahead of that. if anything, the overall ys exposure in reviews for both seven and viii should benefit both titles.
Localization can hamper one's enjoyment of plot, dialogue, and general tone. This just won't reach the quality standard XSEED's set for the series with localizations of Celceta and Ark of Napishtim, and I can live with that.Interesting that half the reviews feel the story is the weakest part, and half think that the improved story is one of the highlights.
