    I hope not, most of their best stuff is on handhelds at the moment. I'll settle for only SMT but other Index creations like Etrian Odyssey would be fantastic.

    C'mon Atlus, you know you want to.

    Yeah, I do wish other JRPG devs/publishers followed suit. Maybe with time.

    Tales of Zestiria has sold really well, for one. Almost 100,000 owners is definitely not too shabby. I hope Lightning Returns sells well too.

    Speaking of Lightning Returns (and just released DQ Heroes), looks like Square Enix is starting to picking up what it takes to release PC version: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/these-are-lightning-returns-final-fantasy-13s-pc-g/1100-6432820/

    (Or they're preparing for remastered releases for PS4 and Xbox One.)

    You can see comparison screens at the link.

    I post this here since it's mostly japanese stuff :
    Many games currently on sales on Playism :

    - Some relevant stuff :
    Artifact Adventure for $4.19 (time for me to buy this one)
    Helen's mysterious castle for $1.39 (very nice solo turn-based battle system)
    One way heroics for $0.40 and One way heroics plus for $4.19

    Bunny must die for $5.00 (brutal metroid-like, it's good but the controls are not perfect IMHO, though)

    Machinarium for $4.00
    Botanicula for $4.00 (if you don't already own these games)

    - Some stuff I could buy but that I don't know anything about :
    REVOLVER 360 RE:ACTOR for $3.00
    Forward to the sky for $4.79
    Wyv and Keep for $7.50
    Starchaser : Priestess of the night sky for $6.99
    I'm gonna be god of the forest for $5.00
    The Legend of Alfur for $5.00

    Be careful, for some titles like Sayonara Umiharakawase ($9.74) or Mercernary kings you'll only get a Steam Key.

    I wonder if the gameplay will be as infuriating as in the first one.

    Really doubt the ffx/2 one considering how square is lazy,but danganronpa would be excellent choice for the pc since steam is becoming more visual novel focused.

    They've been releasing a steady flow of Final Fantasies on Steam. It was/is downright stupid to pretend those 2 aren't being released at some point.

    Awesome news. Stranger of Sword City and Ray Gigant look interesting.

    I'll buy the FF X-2 HD version, too. After all, it's the best Final Fantasy game.

    People always think I'm joking when I say FFX-2 is the best Final Fantasy. If they only knew.

    Well, at least there is job system so that's major plus. About the rest... It was my first Final Fantasy title, for sure it was bit of wild ride.

    It'll be interesting to play a version of Code of Princess that doesn't run like absolute shit.

    I can't brofist a post with that video. I would have bought it but I knew it was this butt ugly mobile port that is offensive to my eyes. Even the UI is offensive.

    Holy shit are those FF6 sprites ugly. I'll never understand the aversion to pixelation when it comes to 2D graphics like that.
