tri-Ace and Spike Chunsoft have been teasing a new JRPG lately, but while the team members revealed so far (Composer Motoi Sakuraba and Scenario Writer Masaki Norimoto) are names heavily tied with the developer’s name, the one revealed today is a surprise.
The gaming community lately makes jokes about companies making games that look like "PS3" or "PS2" games. While this is such a nasty dig, there may be some truth to this in the case of tri-Ace.
Sad really. I used to love these guys but man...they just aren't what they used to be.
The Cod games have been using an engine built in the mid 90s. Nothing wrong with using an old engine if they update it. Bioshock used UE2 and looked better than most UE3 games. Arkham knight used UE3 and looked better than most UE4 games.
Sh it does suck but I enjoyed star ocean 6 the most out of any game last year. I thought it was solid af start to finish. My favorite game that year.
I'd love for Sony to get ahold of them.
To late to edit but I just wanted to add not every game that comes out needs to push a consoles boundaries. Star ocean 6 looked fairly good to me.
Yeah. They definitely squeezed every drop out of that engine for SO6. It was a fun game
I assume you are talking about "Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness" which I do have and am still playing. IMHO it is a good game but for some reason I still prefer "Star Ocean: The Last Hope" that I played on my PS3.
As a side note I have "Star Ocean: Till the End of Time" (PS2 version) which I played on my first gen PS3 but unfortunatly the Australian version of the PS3 did not have full backwards capability like the US version did. I got so far in the game and hit a bug (advancement to a new area between two mountains) that prevented further play.

Does this mean we can expect cute schoolgirls?
Another day, another JRPG for PlayStation platforms
Oh noes... sounds bad. I don't like 2005 and onwards Japanese style of drawing anymore in entertainment products. Everything became too cute. It used to be relatively mature, deep and cool. Now it's just deep, but with little children. I'd like to have adult protagonists in Tri-Ace RPGs. Their lack of style and silly stories set me off. Radiata Stories and Star Ocean 2 were really good, though. Haven't tried Resonance of Fate yet, but I heard good things about it.
Yes more JRPG action loving Sony is bring the JRPG back into the light. Sony Goodness
