Final Fantasy Type-0 Demo

[Gamerforlife]

Just played the demo and it was really good. The cutscenes were cool but they were quite long. The actual combat was fun as hell. It's an action rpg style that feels really free-flowing, and is really fast-paced. I also felt the summons were underpowered though, they were hardly better to use than the character I sacrificed. Anyways, I can't believe SE wouldn't localize this. I thought that having Final Fantasy written on a game pretty much guaranteed high sales, even here in the states.

Has the Japanese rpg fallen that far, that even almighty Final Fantasy can't guarantee the big bucks?

Truthfully, I think this is the worst thing Nomura has ever designed:

So I'm not the only one who dislikes Nomura's artwork? The character designs for Kingdom Hearts are sinfully ugly.

Normua's designs weren't too bad looking at all when he did Parasite Eve and (to a lesser extent) Final Fantasy VIII.

I think when he started working on X he went completely crazy and starting doing nonsensical shit like belt-dresses and overalls over short vests and other splashes of what-the-fuckery.

Oh I didn't know Normua did Parasite Eve. That is great artwork.

Can't beat Amano though:

I always thought they should remake the old FF's and make the visuals look like that^

Me too! I once told someone else that and he said "Well, they wouldn't translate well to 3D...." And I said. "Well that's because the games should be 2D!"

You guys need to play the Eldorado Gate games then. All the characters were done by Amano and are 2D cel-shaded and look just like his artwork.

Supposedly the guy that translated Kingdom Hearts BBS Final Mix has been poking around in the game's coding and says there's a lot of evidence that it's going to be localized one way or another. He also said in the event that it doesn't get brought over, he'll probably end up making a translation patch for it.

They did. It was FFIV on the DS. You all whined about it.

Gooooooood.

I wouldn't mind if SE burned in a fire before this happened though. Apparently they believe they need faster annual FF releases like Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed for examples.

[CAN'T WAIT], I'm sure we can expect 3+ games per new numeral entry in the main series now. Franchise within a franchise within a franchise...
