The actual drawing (on the soundtrack cover) of the character with the ahoge is so weird lol

 

[vainglorious]

I've had this pre-ordered since June on Amazon. Can't wait.

 

[Vitacat]

Wow, looks amazing. And with my GCU it's just $32.

Terrible title, but the game looks nice.

Any reviews of the JPN version?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Destroy me.

I'm veeery excited for this game. It better not suck.

 

[ivysaur12]

That has to be the dumbest name for a game.

It sure is close

 

[Shaanyboi]

Infinite Undiscovery

 

[MrDoctor]

In for $40 and the names behind it. Can't be as bad as Bravely Default, can it?

I don't know about that. Nich Maragos did say on another forum that the price hike was to cover ordering higher-capacity cartridges for extra voicework, yet Untold 2's file size is under 1GB, which is the smallest available cartridge. The game doesn't even have that much voiceover, and I'm willing to bet they had the game recorded at Cup of Tea studios, too, which would also mean that they didn't go all-out on their budget.

If your customers have already proven they're willing to pay more...

 

[Nimby]

The art book will be great. Tomomi Kobayashi is a great artist.

Edit: Oh and Owen(?) has a freakin goatee, time to add him to the "JRPG bearded male protagonist that isn't blahblahblah" thread.

Infinite Undiscovery

the GOAT bad title

 

[Eyothrie]

Nice group of people behind it, just preordered.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Revelations 2 is pretty bad too.

 

[Ooccoo]

Name is dumb though

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Nice group of people behind it, just preordered.

Grezzo worked on the game too.

[Busaiku]

Pre-ordered!
Finally, an Atlus release that goes above and beyond this gen, with no tax!

 

[Labadal]

This and Shadowrun Hong Kong are my most anticipated games that don't have the name Torment in them.

The Euro wait is real.

 

[vainglorious]

Wow, looks amazing. And with my GCU it's just $32.

Uh well. I've read some previews and apparently the game has next to no story and is hard as shit. But the difficulty is probably being addressed for the Western release.

You are correct:

Balanced for the West – Based on user feedback following the Japanese release, several gameplay adjustments were made to enhance the gameplay. More details to come later!

[dakkumauji]

huh, very nice, been a while since Atlus gave out nice bonus items with the launch edition

will get at launch then~

 

[Shiina]

That better be optional or I'm skipping it.

 

[Wagram]

In my mind this will be a spiritual successor to 4 Heroes of Light.

 

[finalflame]

Pre-ordered in a heartbeat. This looks so good, and the LE for $39.99 is a fantastic deal.

 

[SolicitorPirate]

Has Tomomi Kobayashi worked on anything recently? Until his game, I hadn't seen her work since the PS1 SaGa games.

 

[ladyluthien]

oooooooo Pre-ordering.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Wow, shocked it's only 40. Nice, Atlus.

 

[Voror]

The story is told in the exact same manner as the classic SaGa games, ie it's mostly fragments of narrative that you may or may not encounter that may or may not end up making sense. It's not to everyone's tastes but they are deliberately following the template they made with SaGa, so if you don't like that series, don't play this game.

Never played any of the SaGa games so I can't say for certain. It certainly sounds like an interesting model though.

 

[UrAvgGuy]

Damn I know nothing about this and still wanna hit the preorder button. Definitely has me curious, Will have to read more about this.

 

[Tornado Condor]

Wow, i like all the stuff this comes with and know absolutely nothing about this game. I do like RPGs. Should i get it????????????

 

[randomkid]

She did some concept art for a mobile/3DS game called Brave Company. Before that she had some in-game work on a Korean MMO whose name I forget, Granada something.

 

[Swamped]

Well isn't this beautiful. Really looking forward to this one, launch edition looks great.

Spiritual successor to SaGa? Omg I am in.
Curious about the battle system, since that is what makes or breaks an RPG for me...

Ok just watched this. I am preordering this game.

 

[-Horizon-]

Now I hope they put in some good stuff for Stella Glow as well. That game being $50 is ridiculous to me.

 

[Thoraxes]

Fuck yeah take all of my money ATLUS USA.

Fuck yeah this game.

Fuck yeah Masashi Hamauzu.

Fuck. Yeah.

So the launch edition is just the day one/preorder copy? I don't need to preorder a specific SKU?

 

[LDAF]

That has to be the dumbest name for a game.

Yeah, I saw the thread title. I never heard of the game before, and I know you can't judge a game by the name, but this sounds like a hokey made-up game for the Simpsons.

 

[MyNameIsRye]

How long until sites start updating their page to reflect the launch edition?

 

[Deleted member 20920]

Yeah, I saw the thread title. I never heard of the game before, and I know you can't judge a game by the name, but this sounds like a hokey made-up game for the Simpsons.

They should have just named this Legacy Harkens back to Saga as well.

 

[FullmetalPain]

I was excited when I saw this in my email from Altus faithful

 

[Shizuka]

So the launch edition is just the day one/preorder copy? I don't need to preorder a specific SKU?

Exactly.

 

[Takeda Kenshi]

So damn bought.

 

[-Horizon-]

Fuck yeah take all of my money ATLUS USA.

Fuck yeah this game.

Fuck yeah Masashi Hamauzu.

Fuck. Yeah.

So the launch edition is just the day one/preorder copy? I don't need to preorder a specific SKU?

Yeah, that's usually how Atlus handles their launch editions. No need to go looking up a different version.

 

[jackal27]

Aw yes! Day one for me definitely. I am so pumped for this shizz.

 

[Bassmastergeneral]

Wow nice package, I played this earlier this year and loved it. Looking forward to playing again in English!

 

[Thoraxes]

Exactly.

Yeah, that's usually how Atlus handles their launch editions. No need to go looking up a different version.

I figured it was as it always is, but wanted to be sure since no product listings have been updated yet. Thanks, you both.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

I really want the Masashi Hamauzu soundtrack but I'm skeptical about the gameplay. I never could get into the older Saga games I've tried, and this spiritual successor doesn't sound like it'll alleviate any of the problems I had. Probably will just stick to getting the soundtrack by itself.

 

[Vena]

This is a pretty excellent deal, and I'll be scooping it up. The music alone saves me a few bucks or difficulty of trying to find it legally if it ever exists, and for once Atlus isn't taxing it.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Grezzo worked on the game too.

http://www.grezzo.co.jp/en/game

WHY DID I NOT KNOW THIS UNTIL NOW?!

Awesome! For those who don't know, Grezzo was formed by the creator of the Mana series Koichi Ishii! Don't know what other SE folks are there though.

Edit: Actually he wasn't the founder, but joined and took over as CEO and President seemingly in 2007.

Also, one of the names initially announced on the game was Kyoji Koizumi, who in Ocarina 3D's credits is under Grezzo, that could've been a clue that this was co-developed by Grezzo.

 

[Meffer]

Pre-ordered on Amazon so I should get the Launch Edition right?
