CFD!'s Beki Sutcliffe charges at an angle into this review of Ys Seven:
"For those looking for a simple RPG adventure to keep them entertained, Ys Seven is a safe bet. Despite the clichés (this game is full of them), the fast-paced fun action and tactical boss fights ensure it stays challenging without the annoyance of save points or long pointless journeys. Stepping in the shoes of Adol once again is exciting, even if it is just to save those pesky civilians from worldwide destruction all over again."
Falcom has announced the tentatively titled action RPG Tokyo Xanadu New Project for unspecified console(s) in celebration of the series’ 10th anniversary. A release date was not announced.
I played this on Vita a long time ago. I’ll play a new game for sure. Just release a physical PS5 copy and I’m in- I still have an unopened collectors edition somewhere with the rest of my unopened collectors editions. Someday I’ll open some of them when I get my game room set-up.
I downloaded Tokyo Xanadu on my ps4 on a sale, I have yet to play it, haha.
Falcom revealed its lineup of currently in development titles in its “Matters Concerning Business Plans and Growth Potential” investor presentation published via Nikkei today.
Ummmm fk yea. I love their games. Keep em coming. They are some of the few studios games that give me that old school vibe. Not saying others don't just that falcon kills it.
Kuro No Kiseki was announced for localization as The Legend of Heroes - Trails through Daybreak during the NIS America x Falcom stream.
Hell yea, that's all I got to say. I hope one day they re release the cold steel set, I completly missed them due to issues at the time. Now their pretty pricey.
I haven't touched an Ys game since the SNES. Another classic series I just never got into.
I never got into it either, but that's more because there are just so many RPGs out there.
"Despite the clichés (this game is full of them)"
Aaand I'm out. Sorry chums, can't handle the Japanness I'm seeing.
Yeah Japanese games (and I don't think anyone would have believed this a decade or so ago) are pretty much just not cool anymore. That would make a great story actually..
I used to love me some JRPG's back in the day, but today I can't seem to get too far into them... even DQ9! But this one's on my list, if I ever get back in that headspace.
