YS VIII also has my favorite opening of all Ys thus far.
I really happy they switch it up from the usual ones.

Yeah, I basically had to redo the majority of the buttons because I was just fumbling around with how awkward they felt. They give you a LOT of control when configuring them, however, so I was able to set it up the way I wanted.I like the demo, but I think I'm gonna have to switch around the face buttons. X to attack instead of Square just doesn't feel right
Damn, seeing the scores I hoped for decent to good writing/dialogue, but it seems like it's subpar at most. I'd probably get it one day anyway. Steam sales should do its work and on a really rare occassions I do want to play something gameplay-heavy. Is Ys SEVEN better in that regard?
I've tried the demo yesterday, tell me that the inferno difficulty feel a lot more balance then the demo in the real game ? (probably) Because getting 2 shot all the time will get fast on my nerve....
Also the default control are horrible, a chance we can change it. X attack ? Triangle to lock-on, wtf ! Other then that i was pretty suprise for that quality from a Vita game port. Can't wait my collector's edition !

What exactly did you expect on inferno difficulty?
Inferno is one difficulty above even Nightmare (unless 8 is different) : )I've beat every Y's game on Nightmare(except oath of felghana, the final boss was just impossible for me even with intense grinding) , i remember them to be hard, but not getting 1-2 shot all the time. Ys7 and the vita one wasn't that difficult on hardest difficulty too, just grind a little and thing get fine. It was very challenging, but nerver frustrating. I'm pretty sure with levelling and crafting it will be easier then the demo, i was just asking to validate .

So, someone hook a brother up with how to get a physical copy in the uk please? Amazon U.K. Just says unavailable.
Ugh, this is going to be such a hard game to hold off on. I just don't have the time right now for this.
There's just a bit of extra content in the PS4 version right? Can I transfer my save back and forth, or is it completely one or the other. I know I can do remote play, just wondering if the PS4 version is far more superior.I really don't care about graphics that much

They actually contracted the Flash-like OP animation for games like Seven, Celceta, and Trails of Cold Steel (II), and they only provided their own promo art since they're too short-staffed to make the OPs themselves. Same goes for whoever Falcom's contracting to make these much more expensive and ambitious OPs, which I didn't ask for but don't mind (unless it's so pricey that they're cutting corners in more important places).Yeah I'm glad Falcom finally has the budget for properly animated cutscenes (well, mostly just for the openings). I was never a fan of their in-house animation which, quite frankly, looks like Flash animation. I couldn't even watch Celceta's opening; it looked really bad IMO. I think the only time their animation looked nice was for the openings in Ys I & II, but I don't think that was in-house.
Preorder on Steam should go live tomorrow apparently.Weird you cant preorder already just a week away
Game looks great, and I love the artbook pictures they show clicking through the DLC link

Preorders went up for PC -- both Steam and GOG. I went GOG, obvi.
It's a full $60 release on PC, as well, so... yeah. Curious how well this'll do.
Have you ever heard of the name Adol Christin? If not, Adol just so happens to be the hero of the many Ys games since 1987 and hes an adventurer who keeps finding himself in all sorts of adventures.
PC gamers have been clamoring for day-and-date simultaneous releases for years - that's usually what it costs, full retail price.
Just seems weird for a Falcom game to launch at $60, though... in part because most of the games released up to this point have either been older, or portable games. I get the feeling that a lot of people weren't expecting that.
There's a PS4 version going for $60 too so idk why would anyone else expect any less than that

Yeah, which also seems like $10 more than I'd expect.
It probably is lower budget than a lot of games at that price point. . . But isn't THAT low budget, and is selling to a more limited audience. So yeah, it was always going to be $60 especially when the likes of Disgaea go for that these days. If you subscribe to Humble Monthly you can hope they list it there (the Humble Store) though.This is an actual new game, why would it be discounted. Plus it's pretty easy to see on the production value side of things for this game is a lot more grand than the older rereleases

Yeah, easily Falcoms best looking game. Looks better than the recent Tales games imo.This is an actual new game, why would it be discounted. Plus it's pretty easy to see on the production value side of things for this game is a lot more grand than the older rereleases
He's saying you get an extra 10% if you're a Monthly subscriber and it's sold on the Humble Store.I really, really doubt that's happening anytime soon.
So Destructoid's review.... the review is good...but the writing itself?
Here's the first line:
I too enjoy being an adventurer for adventures.
As noted it actually is sold on the Humble Store afterall.I really, really doubt that's happening anytime soon.
Japanese demo let you save. Maybe they enabled that?Do we know what this 1.01 update for the demo does?
I checked the notes, it says they fixed the title. LolDo we know what this 1.01 update for the demo does?
The title? Did they have a typo in the title before this patch or what?I checked the notes, it says they fixed the title. Lol

I think 'tower defense' creates a misunderstanding.Loved the demo, and i'm 95% sure im gonna pick this up when it's out. Reading one of the reviews (sixth axis i think..) mentions a "Mandatory tower defence mini-game" as a negative saying that the game will randomly popup an alert that forces you to stop what you're doing and go to this minigame.
For those who have finished this, how often does that happen, and is it hard? I really don't play those type of games and don't want to get caught up in it forecefully if necessary.
