Ni no Kuni II announced - Coming to PC too!

[lightbane]

I still loathe that deformed-size gimmick, but it seems it was made in an attempt to make a minigame reminiscent of Suikoden, a saga which nowadays is pretty much dead.

Not-pokemons are gonna and instead these Pikmin things work as batteries for your abilities it seems. Also, the seemingly inability to jump and attack in mid-air seems something that will quickly become frustrating.

Lastly, enemies still keep the ability to detect your approach and turn around at the last second.

New Japanese trailer. Reveals JP voice actors and it shows off new footage, with two new party members.

 

[Siveon]

The music theme sounds incredibly close to the Dragon Quest theme.

Maybe that's on purpose?

I don't know, but with the chibi world map shit this looks like massive decline over the first one.

the rts part looks awful

 

[jungl]

it all looks like whatever. The dynasty warrior part and rts parts. Best thing about first game was the graphics honestly followed by exploration and story. The pokemon gameplay got really repetitive fast.

Everything looks awful. It's realtime for you.

I watched gameplay and it looks awesome. Aside of main character is using guns... And that retarded office lady like outfit. Also one of main villains looks like fox, even when it's supposed to be a mouse. Mostly it's graphics that's awesome, guards are half blind. And there are random chests laying with stuff just to loot.

Streamers were allowed to show gameplay up to chapter 3, so if you are curious you can look it up.

 

[Makabb]

I think next Elder Scrolls will have that kindom building stuff also.

 

[Elex]

it’s good, but how much good? good jrpg or a good rpg?

 

[---]

Good action jrpg.

 

[Doktor Best]

That voice acting from the little mutated girl with the blonde hair is pure cancer though.

 

[kalganoat]

Very excited for this game.

Well, looks like they got brain, after what happened to FF XV. Relesed before official release date as console version. Then released again as Royal edition.

I'd estimate Ni no Kuni as one of most pirated games this year. (I wonder if it would reach the title "sold most units" as well. It well might. Depends on story. No GTA VII either.)

 

[Makabb]

Can you change the look of the main character? i don't want to play as a femboy with cat ears
