I also don't want to level up and feel weaker. Their is something satisfying about going back to a level that gave you a challenge and owning it later.

How could you level up and feel weaker when you are also gaining more powerful abilities?

When you level up the ability sucks, but for some reason the enemies feel like they've got a huge buff the same level.

 

[immortal-joe]

Man that release date is soooo far away. Always thought this game would come sooner

I'm talking out of my ass here, but I would HIGHLY doubt this would happen.

 

[ugh_the_boot]

Hopefully the enemies only scale with your LVL/XP and not your gear, so finiding that legendary sword/bow/armour etc will be much more desirable and allow you to own enemies that would be quite tough with more conventional weaponry.

 

[Laughing Banana]

The Elf is so drop dead gorgeous in that character select screen <3

Definitely playing as her <3

 

[devastatorprime]

Anyone with photoshop skills please get rid of that awful ign watermark for the character select screen, I beg of you.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

This is going to look so good on dat Vita screen!

 

[Polo67]

Will their outfits change as you get better loot?

 

[lexi]

Legitimately hyped for this game. Day 1 on Vita.

Newer versions of Photoshop should be able to take care of it with Content Aware fill, right? Hell even the clone tool should be able to take care of it -- I unfortunately don't have a copy of Photoshop available.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Hitomi Tanaka is one of the lead characters?

 

[katsubento]

Cross saves? Both versions day one now . I was only mostly interested in the Vita version before.

 

[nailbombxx]

Will have to get this for both systems.

 

[QisTopTier]

Hitomi Tanaka is one of the lead characters?

Yup she's a Sorceress

Not perfect but good enough I think

This will be my next Vita purchase. It looks stunning. Hopefully it runs at native res.

Unfortunately I don't have access to photoshop at the moment either.

<3 thanks.

 

[Snapshot King]

Fantastic. Thank you kindly.

 

[nailbombxx]

This sounds amazing. Better have some kind of artbook I can buy/preorder for.

IIRC you can get an art book if you pre-order the Japanese version. Hopefully it will get the same treatment in the West.

 

[Bladenic]

The Fighter's head looks so fucking weird in that first pic in the OP. So tiny compared to his immense frame.

Oh, but I'm really excited for this.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

omg. it really is living up to the hype.

hook it to my vitas veins nao!

 

[Fistwell]

Release date still TBA for filthy euro peasants? ;_;

Guess I'll just have to import it if they pull another persona 4 arena.

 

[zoukka]

Goddamn that concept art is amazing.

When did this come out again?

 

[Usobuko]

Goddamn that concept art is amazing.

August 6, 2013 for NA. TBA elsewhere.

 

[Servbot24]

My god. Get rid of that horrible ign logo and I have a new desktop.

Here you go.

 

[Qvoth]

can't wait for kotaku/jason schreier to praise this game to high heavens and act like nothing's ever happened

 

[2+2=5]

Can't wait for it(on vita)!

 

[Halfmunch]

Can't wait Vita needs this game~

 

[Sentenza]

It's a beat-em up at heart, don't want it too easy do you?

Then just don't put in a progression system?

The Elf is so drop dead gorgeous in that character select screen <3

Boring. She's the least original/interesting out of the three female characters' designs.

Back to the preview: yeah, yeah, it looks gorgeous, that's old news.
Even their previous games did. What I'm curious to know it's if this is going to be equally dull and boring to play after a while.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Riding some sabre tooth as Elf will be glorious.

 

[2+2=5]

Gimme the amazon trailer! XD

 

[ZeroAKA]

Still undecided on the platform, but I'm leaning towards Vita.

 

[levitan]

awesome gif...saving it

 

[Tailzo]

Too bad about level scaling. I have yet to play a rpg that I feel level scaling is done right. But I'm still getting this game

 

[Teknopathetic]

"Then just don't put in a progression system?"

People want to fill bars in their 60$ games and complain about a lack of content if there aren't enough of them.

It's true. The guys who did the Scott Pilgrim XBLA game said the same thing. Producers overseeing such projects tend to have requirements on the game spec they feel are representative of what the mass market wants. You have to find one way or other to include such features or you don't get to make a game most of the time. Sad.

 

[QisTopTier]

Well to be honest, It's an Action/Rpg

Having no progression would be stupid. I mean would Gauntlet legends have been as addicting as it was or satisfying if you didn't level?

Imagine if the D&D arcade games didn't level you up as well. The only reason the game doesn't keep your character levels is cause well it was an arcade brawler based on single playthroughs that wanted you to dump more quarters in to see another path.

 

[Akainu]

Here you go.

Well damn. Thank you.

Yeah it's pretty much copy pasted :lol

 

[SolarPowered]

School Rumble is the best.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Well, Kamitani did work on Tower of Doom, right?

 

[zoukka]

Yeah it's pretty much copy pasted :lol

I don't think you know what copy - paste means.

 

[QisTopTier]

I don't think you know what copy - paste means.

I do, but do you know what hyperbole means?

 

[suzu]

Looks good!

Well, Kamitani did work on Tower of Doom, right?

Yup.

 

[zoukka]

I do, but do you know what hyperbole means?

Yes I do and it's to be avoided.

 

[QisTopTier]

Yes I do and it's to be avoided.

Please stop trying to make an argument over nothing. Thank you.

I was acknowledging the fact all the characters are in the same exact spots, save for swapping out the Cleric with the wizard
