another MH clone that looks amazing!

-supports 4 players Vita/PSP cross platform multiplayer

 

[demidar]

Omega Force are the guys who do the Musou games, wonder if they can do something a bit deeper.

 

[Ken]

Looks cool.

Is he cutting that monster's hand off?

Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll. Divisive game but I adored it.

 

[Totobeni]

screens smells like bullshots

but the design of the monster are very good.

Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll. Divisive game but I adored it.

Very underrated gem imo, it's one of the top 3 ARPG this gen gameplay-wise.

 

[Cha]

Agreed. All of those screens, except for the one with the purple spider thing look like bullshots. Colour me "cautiously optimistic".

 

[deim0s]

Are those actual Vita shots? Looks really good, seems more action-y than *raspy voice* Soul Sacrifice.

 

[Takamura-San]

Online mode in PSV?

uh? your point?

 

[Pachterballs]

Day 1

 

[Kokonoe]

Whoa, PSP? Stellar.

 

[Sintoid]

Monsters mutilations? Could be interesting...

 

[wrowa]

I'm still a little surprised that none of the MH clones are being released for the 3DS. I wonder what's happening there. Are the developers afraid of MH4? But that didn't prevent them from releasing their games on PSP when new MH games were still being released on that plattform. Do they think that a lot of Vita owners are starved for MH-like experiences and that this audience is more worth following than the MH gamers on the 3DS (despite the difference in the user-base)? Or is Sony pushing devs to put these games on their plattforms?

Well. In any case, game looks good and I'm really interested in seeing what Omega Force is going to deliver in the genre.

 

[test_account]

uh? your point?

Hes probably just wondering if the Vita version has online multiplayer.

PSP has more games of the genre than 3DS. People STILL play MH on the PSP in Japan.

This.

 

[erpg]

Ah, glorious Tecmo Koei bull shots.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Dynasty Warriors Next was actually really good (and looked great on Vita, native res, AA etc.) so there is hope for this... Unless it's as about as deep as a Dynasty Warriors game.

 

[erpg]

Bullshots aside, I really like its look. Kotaku posted a little article about it:

[Hystzen]

who remembers that other monster game Ni-Oh they was putting on ps3

just me ok

anyway I wonder if this ended up being Ni Oh

 

[TreIII]

As a fan of most of Koei's games, I'm interested in seeing how this one will play out. And the fact that, unlike Strikeforce/Multi-Raid, there doesn't seem to any sign of Lu Bu or Zhao Yun in sight makes me happy.

 

[Mokubba]

Looking forward to seeing more. The characters look good.

I bet Lu Bu will be a secret boss like in first samurai warriors game

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Looks pretty good. Can't wait to see more.

 

[crinale]

Online mode in PSV?

Yes, it's already confirmed.

 

[BadWolf]

Nice monster design.

 

[erpg]

Nice monster design.

Yup. I'm cool with Onimusha Monster Hunter from Omega Force.

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

:O

Damn, I love Omega Force.

I'm really happy to see them tackling a different kind of jam again after Trinity. One of my favorite games this generation.

 

[TreIII]

Pls no. Even as much as I love Koei's games, I don't need to see Musou references in every action game of theirs.

DLC costumes and weapon skins are about as much as I would think is necessary for meeting that fanservice quotient.

Anyway, gematsu has an article up that provides a translation of the Famitsu one:

But there's Meng Huo right there!

This game basically got me at that oversized bow.

 

[ajim]

Game looks pretty sexy to me

 

[Mondriaan]

I'm glad to see that there were other fans of Trinity.

I like the look of the characters. Cautiously optimistic about this title.

 

[Wynnebeck]

Even though I like MH, anything to speed up the combat and make it more action-y is good to me.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

who remembers that other monster game Ni-Ohthey was putting on ps3

just me ok

anyway I wonder if this ended up being Ni Oh

First thing I thought off. They stole my Ni Oh!

I want Ni Oh PS3 .

 

[Chromax]

I like what I'm seeing.

It will be preorder bonus skins knowing Koei at moment, maybe awakened state Zhao Yun from strikeforce or some others to fit the fantasy side. Maybe some Ninja Gaiden also due to the demon ideas.

sounds interesting cant wait for some footage

 

[Oyashrio-Sama]

Looks pretty cool.

 

[Sophia]

I don't really care for Monster Hunter and it's clones, but this actually looks pretty cool. The art and designs are different from the usual clones.

Four player PSP/Vita cross-play is cool too, but I'm guessing there's no online play? :\

 

[Infinite_Daremo]

On my watch list.

Soul Sacrifice is a definite for me. Tried other MH clones and they've never been as fun as MH.

 

[Takuan]

Way more aesthetically pleasing than Soul Sacrifice. Color me curious.

Instinctive Action

The player takes on the role of one the soldiers known as “Mononofu.” The main character is a beginner, setting out to destroy the world-distorting demons and protect mankind. Using weapons like the long sword and bow and arrow, you’ll take a stand against the most ferocious demons. But the demon’s flesh is tough and you won’t be able to defeat them by attacking recklessly. Take them down by destroying them limb by limb, follow it by purification so that the life energy of the demons is cut off from the root source!

That explains the limb-hacking.

 

[Takao]

why are people excited wasn't dw strikeforce bad

First thing I thought off. They stole my Ni Oh!

I want Ni Oh PS3 .

ni-oh ps3 still exists

 

[chertipros]

who remembers that other monster game Ni-Oh they was putting on ps3

just me ok

Nah this is omega force. Ni-Oh is currently being developed by team ninja and recently team ninja stated that the game has gotten past its alpha stage

 

[Kyleripman]

I love the design of the monsters. Definitely looking forward to seeing gameplay. I wonder if it's at all acrobatic like the movement of the characters in the CG trailer.

 

[erpg]

Nah this is omega force. Ni-Oh is currently being developed by team ninja and recently team ninja stated that the game has gotten past its alpha stage

After 8 years? A triumphant achievement.

 

[Galang]

Never heard of this. The style is really nice to look at, count me intrigued

 

[TreIII]

why are people excited wasn't dw strikeforce bad

Can't say much for the original, but the JP-only sequel actually was a pretty fun game. Too bad the PS3 HD Remaster didn't get a Western release.

 

[ZeroAKA]

Dynasty Warriors Next was actually really good (and looked great on Vita, native res, AA etc.) so there is hope for this... Unless it's as about as deep as a Dynasty Warriors game.

Agreed, hopefully Omega Force will be able to pull off that high IQ with this game too. I'm looking forward to seeing a gameplay video.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

Can you post a link to that recent statement? I hope it'll come out finally.

 

[erpg]

As am I. I can deal with aliasing, but I hope the Vita version is as crystal clear as those shots.
