I really hope every part of it is good, from the gameplay to the story!<br /><br />The Yakuza series is also fascinating me recently. Until watching some reviews, I didn't realise how in-depth it was. I didn't pay much attention to it during TGS but the amount of detail in those games is truly impressive.<br /><br />I remember Granblue was at TGS last year, right? It's strange they've been very quiet about it for almost a year. Granblue looks like it would do really well. As for Re: Fantasy, I'm no expert but I have a feeling that we may not see that one for a while. The lack of details make me wonder how far off it is, but that's honestly just a guess. I wouldn't be against seeing more of it, regardless!<br /><br />And I'm a big fan of Legrand Legacy! I have a first impressions on here (http://jrpgjungle.blogspot.com/2016/12/first-impressions-legrand-legacy.html) :D I guess I am also guilty as I didn't cover their work during TGS either, but I am genuinely looking forward to playing it when it's out, it's a very promising title :)<br />Thank you for your fantastic comment and for checking out my post! :DJRPG Junglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16208032067849769634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819392336542172258.post-35075796008251903662017-09-29T22:12:37.884-07:002017-09-29T22:12:37.884-07:00Looking forward to Code Vein for sure, as God Eate...Looking forward to Code Vein for sure, as God Eater 2 Rage Burst was phenomenal, and like you I'm feeling oddly hyped by Fatal Bullet. This despite the fact that I hate SAO with a fiery passion. I mean, its definitely the Freedom Wars DNA that's got me excited - DIMPS is the developer for this game, and they co-developed Freedom Wars with SHIFT for Sony. With Sony seemingly super uninterested in pursuing a Freedom Wars 2 for PS4, I'm looking towards Fatal Bullet to see if it can fill the void.<br /><br />Beyond those, I'm super hyped for SEGA's Fist of the North Star Yakuza ("Like a North Star" or "Dragon of the North Star" or something in Japanese; "Dragon" coming from the Japanese name Yakuza, "Like a Dragon"). I dig the Yakuza games quite a bit, and them applying that action-RPG formula to an IP like Fist of the North Star is super interesting. I hope it turns out well, as I can see Sega pushing that formula on other games in the future. A Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Yakuza, a Ghost in the Shell Yakuza, etc. That team could end up like Omega Force, doing really interesting things when they take their tried-and-true design and applying it to new licensed properties (like with Dragon Quest Heroes, One Piece Pirate Warriors, Attack on Titan, Hyrule Warriors, etc.)<br /><br />A little sad that Platinum's Granblue Fantasy wasn't there, as well as Atlus' Re: Fantasy. I really feel like RPGs at the show could've used less already-seen properties; as good as Square and Namco did in terms of heavy lifting (Digimon and .Hack are certainly both worth looking forward to in their own right. Also, Ni No Kuni 2 continues to look awesome for sure), TGS sure could've used more "new".<br /><br />I will say this though. No one outlet seemd to give a crap about covering indies, and that's a shame because there definitely RPGs there. I know LeGrand Legacy kept updating their Kickstarter during the event to show backers what TGS was like. That game looks fantastic btw; if you haven't seen it, look up a trailer. Its got that 2D pre-rendered or hand-painted backgrounds/3D characters look to it, very reminiscent of Baten Kaitos or PSX Final Fantasies, and its just really cool to see a modern version of it. Also the battle system looks similar to something like Shadow Hearts or Legend of Dragoon or something. Its really cool. I wish some outlet bothered to tour the indies area of TGS just to be on the lookout for more titles like that. I'm certain there were many cool little gems missed out on because of the lack of coverage they got.<br /><br />Anyway, excellent video! I certainly hope all of these - and all jRPGs coming up, in general end up pretty good in the end whenever they come out :)yoyoyoit'smynamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00498307659784378438noreply@blogger.com
