For Fans of a Golden Age: Ikenie to Yuki no Setsuna

[Wolf Kanno]

What gets me isn't so much the similarity to FF10's story, but the fact that I like games that have plot lines that evolve as you go through the story rather than ones that have the end goal laid out for you at the beginning. It would be nice to see a classic return to form, but I'm so jaded an cynical towards SE nowadays it is difficult to get excited.

Well you'll be happy to know that SE is kind of only working as a publisher for this game. Tokyo RPG Factory has maybe one guy on staff that has worked on other Final Fantasy titles (Final Fantasy Explorer's Director) and it's apparently composed largely of new, though veteran game designers. The nature of the company is a bit weird from what I've read. SE is bankrolling the team but they are working independent from the company but SE is the publisher... so yeah.

I don't even know how to feel about this game...

"Newish" trailer focusing on new characters and the combat system. If you look at the last scene in the uper right hand corner, you'll get a glimpse of the game's airship.

Did someone say "Chrono Trigger with Limit Breaks"?

Where do I send my money?

How about no?

I'm excited to play this, but idk why, but I'm just not that wild about it. I hope my subdued excitement will let me be pleasantly surprised when this comes out.

You're just used to Square being disappointing when it comes to console releases lately (like, ever since FFXII ). But, remember, they're really only bankrolling the studio!

[Wolf Kanno]

I'm willing to give TRF a chance to surprise me. While I'm aware this game is simply a grab at my nostalgia, it's not a bad combination. I'm with Skyblade with the idea this is the most interesting title SE has announced lately. The fact it's a new IP alone makes it interesting.

[Fynn]

It's not that, really. I'm actually more excited for FFXV and KHIII, and I did have a blast playing Bravely Default. And I'll have you know I beat XIII only recently and XII is my favorite

I guess I'm just not that impressed by the presentation, but I see this sounds promising. I've always been kinda resistant to pandering to nostalgia, so I never saw the appeal of modern 8-bit games, and hell, I wasn't even that excited for BD. And I'm actually happy to be so reserved about it. It makes me less likely to read about spoilers and I can just get excited once I have a hands-on reason to get excited.

[theundeadhero]

I will be buying this on day one.

[Vyk]

I hope this has cross-buy lol It'll fit perfectly in my Vita collection, but it'll probably be way prettier on PS4

It's funny, I'm sure I've seen those combat attacks before, but not until I watched that trailer did I realize that was very Chrono Trigger. But that's probably because I just finally watched ProJared's review of the game, and then I read Wolf's article and sure enough, that's exactly what they're going for

It is interesting that a Square team is using a story so similar to FFX, but I hated FFX, and maybe these guys won't ruin it. I don't have a lot of faith in the main body of Square, but I do have some faith in the Bravely Default team. And these guys. I will remain optimistic, and will likely buy this immediately

I'm still confusing the title of this game as "Kenie to Yuki no Satsuma.

And, uh... Is that something dirty or what?
