So lets get down to business, what do you guys want to see here? I used to occasionally post on /jrpgg/ before it become shitposting general and don't it to turn into that.

Should we advertise or wait for people to find it on their own? A lot of people seem to be spread thin over boards for individual franchises.

News Thread

A general thread for all JRPG news.

Since we're slow it'd work better than loads of small threads.

So, to start, new Persona 5 trailer that was shown during the Atlus stream.

>No Falcom thread

Let's fix that. Also state of the next English releases:

>Gurumin


Delayed to early (Q1) 2015.

>Brandish 1 PSP remake


Probably this month, no joking. It's a very small game in terms of script.

>Ys VI


No idea, but it's slowly getting importance at XSEED

>Ys VIII


2016 if we are lucky, Falcom is so secretive they won't allow XSEED to work on the game before it gets released on Japan

>Trails in the Sky SC


Who the hell knows, the testing phase will start very soon. Also Sara got back at working on the bestiary. Looks like the sales are good enough to get the sequels, and Tom teased a PC port made by themselves.

>Trails of Nayuta


A fan translation started.

>Xanadu Next, Zwei!!, Zwei II, Dinosaur Resurrection


Rumour says these titles will be the next games to be released after Trails SC.

Tales of Tales of Discussion

Tales of discussion always brings things to life, so what do you think of this franchise?

Which have you played so far and what is your favourite?

I put Tales of Abyss on hold for a while to start some other games but I was thinking of going back to it though I'm tempted to start a new game but I hate all the back tracking. I know I've missed a few side quests but I don't think they were that important, I got Guy's and Luke's Artes.

Disgaea

I played the original Disgaea PSP version a while back and got to Chapter 7 then just stopped playing but decided to come back to it, sort of forgotten what I was doing at the time.

Right now Laharl is 46 and seems fine, Etna is a little low at 40 and feels a bit weak but she has her uses, Flonne is 44 and pretty good with Mega Star. I have a 39 Bishop with Mega Ice, a 37 Bishop with Mega Fire and a 42 fighter, I haven't really used much of the Story based characters though I think I used Maderas a little while. All of them seem reasonably geared, but I'm thinking my best bet would to the Item world and get everybody to level 40.

Not sure whether to spend all the time grinding in this one considering how long I've heard it can take, I'd rather invest that time in one of the newer titles.

Trying to track down a local copy of Disgaea 2 is proving to be a bit difficult, seen the Ps2 version though I'd rather the PSP definitive version. I don't have a PSV yet so not in a rush to play 3/4. How is DD2? Should I jump straight into that after I've finished?

Shin Megami Tensei

Should I jump back into Strange Journey or give Nocturne ago? Or should I give Digital Devil Saga chance? I've only played P3 and 14 hours of SJ so far.

Also SMT discussion; what's your favourite demon? Law / Chaos / Neutral?

What I expected:

- Shitty art style

- Generic story

- Boring combat

- Short mobile tier length


What I got:

- Awesome graphics for the ps1

- Fun battle system

- Interesting world

- Good music

- Lovable characters



It irritates me to no end that Capcom let this series die, this game is legitimately good and deserves a HD rerelease on Steam so that other people can play it.

I propose that /jrpg/ should play this game and post about it. Kind of like a book club type thing.


I brought this game on Steam because I liked the cut of it's jib. I know that this board is slow moving so I won't start until I get some feedback whether or not you guys are keen.

SaGa Thread

Two new games announced, Vita and PC browser.

>The games were confirmed during this morning’s SaGa 25th anniversary live stream. First up, we’ll get a look at SaGa 2015, a Playstation Vita title that is still in production.


>Next up is Imperial Saga, a single player PC browser game that is going to feature world settings of the previous games in the SaGa franchise.


>However, it’ll feature a totally new story and artwork by series illustrator Tomomi Kobayashi. It’s worth noting that Koboyashi is doing the illustrations for SaGa 2015 as well.


>Finally, Square Enix confirmed that Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song, a Playstation 2 remake of the original Romancing SaGa, is coming to the Japanese Playstation Store as a PS2 Classic.


>Tomorrow, December 15th, is the date that the SaGa franchise officially turns 25 years old.

The ingredients of a great JRPG

OK /jrpg/, what do you need in a game before you can call it "great?"

>Alternate better ending based on completing harder optional content

>At least partially action-based combat system
>Alternate costumes
>Non-human party members
>Mechanics and lore are interwoven
>Hype limit breaks/super moves

How many of you picked this up or played it before?

I've had my copy for a while but only recently started it, up to chapter 5. Love the art style and the combat is fun.

Ar Nosurge

So uhh for Ion's genometrics, apparently I'm not supposed to be able to complete it right away. Does that mean no new song magic for her for awhile? And I can't even do the purification either.

Also Nay a cute.
