After Square and Wada self-destructed and turned to complete garbage this gen, Level 5 and Atlus/NIS are now holding the torch for RPG fans.

Level 5 has been on fire over the past few years.

The amazing and absolutely gorgeous DQVIII.
The wonderful Jeanne d'Arc for PSP

Dark Cloud or White Knight Chronicles 2

You know its going to be awesome either way.

You won't be singing that tune next year after XIII and XIV are out =0

Versus XIII?
Kingdom Hearts?
Agito XIII or Parasite Eve 3 on PSP?

BTW FFXIII and FFXIV are two freaking HUGE games

Two games from what used to be an RPG power house is far from impressive. The only reason they are surviving this is because of Dragon Quest.

1.8 - And on the subject of DQ (being the sole saving grace for SE this gen):
who's the developer of IX? That's right.

Level-5.

SE only published it, they had no hand in it's creation. I hope against hope that Level-5 resist the inevitable buy-out attempt from SE.

Level-5 has nothing to do with that. That's an SCEA issue. Level-5 works on Japanese products, not American products.

I don't know if it will, but I sure hope it does. I love White Knight Chronicles, and will buy it again when it comes out in English, so I'm anxious to learn more about the sequel.

Hopefully they announce a new engine cuz those graphics are terrible

5.1 - graphics alone don't make a game.
It's a combo of graphics, story (main thing for RPGs), gameplay, and setting that make a game.

Lev 5 is known for RPGs and not shooters. In a shooter you need good graphics because they don't have much else to go on (Go here, shoot that, open door, and shoot him). But in a RPG you don't need great grphics. What you need is a story and a setting that fits the story.

This is why most of the best RPGs are 2 gens old now (ps1). This gen is to focused on graphics if you ask me. So many games have come out with great graphics but their storys are just not worth it.

Not sure why you think they're terrible. I have the Japanese version, and the graphics are quite nice. The character designs and made-up races in the game are nicely detailed and quite unique, the architecture of the buildings in the cities is very cool, and the environments are gorgeous. The graphics certainly don't qualify as "terrible."

"We're not entirely sure what to expect, but Level-5 typically uses this event to showcase self-published games rather than those they are working on for other publishers (such as White Knight Chronicles), so it makes sense that they will discuss more about their partnership with Studio Ghibli, as well as a few new games."

So don't get your hopes up for WKC 2 guys :)
