Does Lost Odyssey have any shadows at ALL? I'm watching all of these scenes and I've not once seen an object have a shadow. Like the carriages at the beginning of the intro? No shadows! Jansen, Seth, and Kaim in any scene I see? No shadows!
It almost looks psx-esque at times. Seriously.
Such a step back, graphics wise, from Blue Dragon.
-
i didn't notice that.
i do think that lost odyssey IS like a ps1 game with a ps2/360 level story. i mean shit, there are no armor to buy nor very many things to customize besides abilities.

No armor is good. I hate micromanaging armor.

every accessory and weapon is visible in battles and real time cutscenes, with fine details.
step back from BD my ass, each engine has it's advantages and disadvantages.

BD overall has better looking graphics though. I mean, Seth has ps2 quality hair!
-
Blue Dragon was a dream come true. The engine was mostly built by the Age of Empires team for Artoon.
I hope it is used in future games...
And say what you want about Toriyama(the guy stards hated the moment mistwalker went to the 360) but the game's art is fucking gorgeous.

and the hair in BD is better? lol.
just be glad there is hair in an UE3 game.

How do you micromanage armor? It's either this armor sucks, or it's good.
You fail math, son?
-
Yeah but you won't find that in LO. That's more abundant in Diablo-likes

How can a story or customization system be PS1 level or PS2 level? Those depend on developers, not hardware.
-
armor's not bad but I prefer a smooth experience of just awesome tough battles instead of changing my stats constantly.
SMT :bow

I like how FFX handled equipment. Customizable, no one weapon or armor truly better than the other, all with a purpose somewhere in teh game.

I loved FFX's armor system
-
FFX rules in everything but story/characters/world map
I saw somewhere that LO's combat has the same feel, is that the case? :hyper
-
LO has awesome FFIX skill building and shit, I can't wait to play it. Woo next week! Then LOST week after! Best month ever, seems so

Skills are learned from weapons? :o
What's this I hear about immortals using skills by 'equipping' mortals? Is it like GFs in FF8?

omfg LO JUST A FEW MORE DAYS

Pretty much. I love FFX. Soooooo much better than the tripe that XII was.

FF12 could have just used FFX's original battle system... remember the one where instead of random battles enemies would jump out of bushes and shit and your battle GUI would just appear? Fuck
-
FFX :bow
-
FFXII was originally online? Why'd they go for that when they had FFXI?
-
oh
well how'd that work then
-
I haven't played Monster Hunter!
-
I think the project that turned into FF12 had turned into an offline game before it turned into FF12, so technically "FF12 was originally online" isn't quite right. At any rate, the project went through a lot of changes. Characters were originally super-deformed, they tried like four completely different versions of the character growth/job/license board system, etc. I don't think Matsuno or anyone else was ever totally clear on what exactly they were trying to make.

Is there a leaked soundtrack for LO yet?
-
the soundtrack was ripped to gamemp3s like 3 weeks ago
-
The final boss music is awesome.

Good call. FFX was fantastic.

I'm playing X right nwo and I'm getting pissed. I hate fucking Yunalesca. >:(
-
she's easy dude
just leave your guys zombified and own her

I didn't really train enough to let my guys stay zombified to the point where it doesn't hurt my party. The Regen shit she does is easy to avoid, but she Curaga's my ass a lot.
And then, you know, Mega Death. I need to train in Zanarkand Ruins a bit so I can get some Deathproof stuff.

that reminds me.... the soundtrack is obviously from nobuo uematsu because it is beautiful. that guy is to video games what danny elfman is to movies.
about what i said about the game having a ps2/360 level storyline was pretty unclear. i meant the presentation of the story and the way that it unfolds, relying on cinematics, better quality music, and voice acting was like the newer generation of rpgs. ff7/8/9 were all text based. however while the combat may "feel" like ff10, it plays a lot like ff8 or 9 and learning skills from other mortal players or from accessories is very much like ff8.
is that clearer?
-
it is.
-
Yea, thanks for infos.
Preordered today. I'm supposed to get the bonus shit at time of pickup, right? One of my friends has it already.
