Title: Archaic Sealed Heat (ASH) - the next game by Mistwalker
Post by: Himu on September 27, 2007, 06:47:29 PM
Archaic Sealed Heat (ASH) is the next game to be released by Mistwalker.

Worst name ever, but I'm pretty impressed with what they've managed to do with ds' hardware.

Enemy Encounter (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/25092.html)
Battle (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/25667.html)

It looks pretty good (graphics wise). It'd be annoying if you have to sit through those long ass animations every time you do them. Has there been any info on this game at all aside from "omg omg the graphics in this are great for ds!!!"? It'd be nice to be able to play it without a stylus.

Sp0rsk sounds very elitist.

maybe touch screen controls actually work really well sometimes?

Sporsk ain't that elitist. Look at that Wii thread demi made. We're elitists, and damn proud of it!

Sp0rsk sounds very elitist.

I've heard several accounts that he is as much of a pissant offline as he is on

Didn't the J-GAF crew shun him? Should be a big enough hint.

When I'm playing an rpg, my most favoritest of genres, I wanna chillax, not write shit. This isn't like PW where all you gotta do is point and click. in this, it seems you actually have to draw a damn line to target all enemies. That's stupid.

oh absolutely. I just got the idea that you guys were bagging on touch screen controls period. The majority of rpgs would be ass with touch controls. Etrian Odyssey is a nice exception tough, the touch screen is extremely well implemented

This game looks like ass.  Prerendered backgrounds are so 10 years ago.

Prerendered backgrounds are cool (IMO), I could understand why you wouldnt like them

And you think DQ4r's graphics are good?

DQ4's graphics do look better, yeah.

Yeah, I like the way it looks.  It's got charm.  Prerendered graphics just say to me "Our game WOULD look like this if we had the juice, but since we don't, we'll just pretend this 2d image is 3d and call it a day."

That's a good point.

DQ4r DOES look better in motion. The style doesn't look so good standstill, I think.

I dunno, but I heard that sp0rsk didn't let thetrin participate in the TGS GAFcast last year because he "wasn't a big enough forum personality."  Sounds kinda mean.

I'm not a big fan of the trin either but sp0rsk is a delusional taco.  What's so special about him that makes him feel elite?

I dunno, I've barely spoken to the guy.  Most J-Gaffers are assholes, though.  I'm the exception that proves the rule.  :-*

You didn't even want to try to meet me at the mid-year conference last year, ASSHOLE.  And I even looked for the PC-FX for you. :'(

I thought most of J-Gaffers were pretty nice when I met them before.  There are one or two people that seemingly became total elitist pricks/assholes online, but I don't know if that extends outside the internets are not.  There are people I've met like Blackace, DCharlie, Mr. Singh, and Cormac that were really friendly guys.  Never met Trin.

I never met sp0rsk, but I always get the feeling he has some sort of problem with me or something.  He thought I was giving him shit once in a thread too, which was weird.

A buddy and I have always talked about making a Japan-Elitist parody video with us in different situations rambling on and on incoherently about anime and games and crap, and always adding "....because I live in Japan" at the end of every sentence.  Like I'd be walking down the street, taking a dump, a shower, etc. and just talking nonsense like "Kojima-San's latest game is a masterpiece.  An art form.  It brings about a certain sense of....blah blah blah.  And I know this, BECAUSE I LIVE IN JAPAN."  Or "I have in fact BEEN to Akihabara.  Or 'Akiba' as THOSE IN THE KNOW might say.  There are simply too many GAIJIN around to enjoy one's self, quite frankly.  The don't understand how this country works...flows, if you will.  But I do, of course, BECAUSE I LIVE IN JAPAN."

Dumb?

I'm anti-social like that.  Actually, I think I just forgot to bring your number along with me to the conference.  :(

Dcharlie seems like kind of a dick online, I'm surprised he's a nice guy IRL. I kid, I kid.
