Going to laugh if it somehow requires multiple 3DS or Vita's for the co-op.

Isnt that the game where a bunch of little faggots run around with a bucket? No thanks.

>>15431420

>Okay, it's your turn to jizz in the bucket.

>>15431424

Reminds me of that retarded "Crossed" comic where a bunch of infected jerked off into a bucket, put their ammo in it and used it to shoot and turn other people.

I'm actually looking forward to this, especially if they get rid of the retarded "everybody bring a handheld" requirement. Although an option to have everyone use their own switch for local wifi multiplayer would be awesome too. Using joycons on the Switch seems like a no-brainer.

Then again it might just be everybody uses their own console with online multiplayer.

>>15431391

I would have killed for this and bought a console at any point when I was younger. Now I'm so soured by the brand I won't even bother,(or wait for eventual PC release). If this doesn't have local co-op and only online play I'm going to shit on it in every thread and hope it fails

I already had a GameCube two gbas and a wife when this came out, so it didn't require any extra purchases. it was a damn good little game.

(I no longer have any of the above. Sometimes I really miss that GameCube. )

>>15431391

It's about fucking time. Please don't fuck up this chance to possibly revive the series.

>>15431410

It does seem a bit strange it's not getting a XB1/PC release either.

>>15431452

Hi reddit.

There are two outcomes to this: it either bombs and this is the last we hear of Crystal Chronicles or it does well and the next game they make ends up being a massive piece of shit which will be the last we hear of Crystal Chronicles.

>>15431468

Either way it's gonna be another 10 years of darkness

>>15431471

This is like the antiBarrel.

Finally. a reason to buy a switch

Always thought this would be perfect for the switch

Hopefully they don't fuck it up, at least beyond the obligatory "HD" graphics downgrade

>>15431471

>this is your brain on marxism

Aw fuck yeah, Yukes

We should have threads and caravan together

I'm so fucking happy.

What do you guys want added to this game ? I used to think being able to live with the eight members of the caravan, but honestly it'd be too complex for the maps, it'd require much stronger and more varied enemies, it'd make the whole thing too easy, I think, since you'd just need to strategize properly and all enemies would get their shit kicked in. I'd love for more interactions with the villagers, though. Not just being able to buy stuff, but actual little snippets of your family life, I dunno. If not, even a bigger village at all.

Overall, if they could add even more stuff to it somehow, more content I mean, I'd be overjoyed even more than I am right now

Maybe they'll release a special edition with the soundtrack too, that'd be rad

>>15431471

just like my japanese hentai VN's

>>15431391

Show us some gameplay Squeenix

>>15431731

Personally I'd love me some more spells and maybe a few more areas.

In terms of weapons and equipment I think it's fine.

I really would've loved FF Explorers to have been a proper crystal chronicles kind of game instead of a piss poor Monster Hunter rip off.

>>15431912

Seeing how sony works, they won't allow crossplay.

Also, different scenes for the restoration ceremonies could be great, I agree. Seeing the same one every single year got pretty boring pretty fast.

>>15431890

Ring of fates' magic could be cool. That game was quite different but the story was amazing I cry errytim

>>15431468

there's already Crystal Bearers

things can't get any worst

DEEP INSIDE SO SILENTLY MY HEART WILL SPEAK

I've been waiting so fucking long for this. Easily one of my greatest vidya regrets was never finishing this game.

>>15432143

To be fair, it's not exactly a simple game to finish

Being able to use combo magic in multiplayer like you can singleplayer would make playing a yuke much more fun in coop.

>>15431454

>this trailer represents a game currently in development so if it looks better than the game we're going to release in the future we're not liable to any complaints about false advertising.

>>15432263

Once you're skilled enough there's no reason not to play Selkies. Basically every other class needs a buff in some way.

>>15431391

Why buy games?

Wait for emulation and get them for free.

>>15431731

>I'm so fucking happy.

Stop. You will only get disappointed. Every single time, time and again, Nintendo makes games that just fucking barely miss the point and could've been so much better if not for one little thing. Do not also forget CY Nintendo's shittery, nor the cost for online play.

You want to be excited and I get that, but you should really temper your expectations here.

I hope there's single console multiplayer with split joycons on switch, that'd be dope

>>15432669

I'd very much prefer the old method, but an easy way to fix the chalice issue would be to enable mog in multiplayer and have a "call" button to anchor it to the player who presses it.

>>15432717

I'd prefer the old way as well. Just knowing how SE has done the most recent FF remasters, I just know they'll make it optional.

>>15432717

But would it make it easier or harder to dick with people at miasma stream crossings?

>>15432739

It would definitely improve the 2 player experience IMO but for 3 or more chalice shenanigans become much more fun.

>>15432753

Depends. The way I would do it is to make it impossible for other players to call mog if it's anchored to an active player. The active player can disable the anchoring and put mog on standy allowing other players to call it and they can also order mog to drop the chalice.

So how will hidden screen bonuses work? Or is that going to be removed entirely?

This needs a remake more than a remaster, the story, visuals and audio were all great but no part of the actual gameplay was good even ignoring the ridiculous multiplayer requirements and making one of the players sit out at all times.

>>15432548

>nintendo makes games

>about a final fantasy game

why are you even posting in this thread ? Hell, why are you even posting in this board ? Idiot

>>15432669

I doubt they'll bother with "relocalization", was there anything problematic with the game in the first place ? The identity of the black knight and talking to that small lilty after his last scene was fucking painful, to be fair

>>15432959

They showed in the trailer that they'll just add the GBA screen to the top right apparently, supposedly bonuses and all will be shown there.

>>15432203

That medieval instrument sounds great. Got me into the mood medieval music.

>>15433543

I'm not sure which part of that seems more unlikely.

>>15433543

The best thing SE can do for this series is maybe releasing a Echoes of Time remaster, start pretending that crystal bearers and rings of fate don't exist, and release this game for PC as well. I dare not trust them with making a new FFCC. It'd just turn into mobile gachashit.

>>15433637

How about that Custom Robo game?

>>15433652

Anon, if a custom robo game comes out. I will buy a ticket to your town, and kiss you in the fucking lips for jinxing it.

>>15432980

I disagree - the gameplay wasn't amazingly complex, but it was extremely cohesive, with most gameplay mechanics being utilized (rather than throwaway gimmicks). It just needed more content.

>>15431391

I'd be happier about this if it weren't the generation where Nintendo is embracing sub fees for online play. Though if they don't change how the bucket works in multiplayer, playing it offline would probably be better anyways.

Is it worthwhile for single player? Otherwise, what's the fucking point?

>>15433543

Could also re-release My Life as a King and My Life as a Darklord (with all DLC included for both) considering the Wii Shop Channel closure.

>>15435570

Shit, I played My Life as a King through and through. Loved it, even though it was such a small game that needed more space and more content.

Life as a darklord was tons of fun too, but frankly ultimately unbeatable at some point.

I can't say that I care, I hated Echoes of Time. I liked the combat and puzzles, but the world was too empty. I normally like grinding, but in those games its a lot like only getting one small drag out of a cigarette. Dying F2P Spiral knights scratched the Secret of Zeldaman itches better.

>>15435859

>Echoes of Time

This is like passing on wind waker because phantom hourglass was shit

>>15436127

Phantom Hourglass wasn't that bad

>>15431731

>happy

This is a game which deserves a remaster because of the GBA bullshit and it being a fun co op game, but I am certainly not happy that it's modern Squeegee.

>>15436127

It's more like passing BotW because I liked OOT+MM, thought Wind Waker was ok, and didn't care for Twilight Princess… I'm just not going to be fooled into thinking that a new iteration in a series will be as good as the first game when most of the others were meh at best.

>>15436202

Well, I mean, of course, but it's a game that somewhat defined my teenage years, anon. It's an important piece of me. I've spent years, since the wii u came out, thinking it'd be perfect for some online play. It genuinely feels good. I know that's a feeling that'll get me bullied on /v/

>>15436218

Except this is literally the first game in the series

>>15434655

Nigger you make entirely new spells by timing spell castings with your buddy. This is not a single player game.

>>15436221

I want it to be good too, but sadly we shouldn't get our hopes up for this one. I'm still awestruck by how bad the Secret of Mana remaster was.

>>15436248

>Nigger you make entirely new spells by timing spell castings with your buddy.

In single player, your buddy is the moogle, who casts spells based on the color you spray paint on him

>>15436252

I knew there was an AI partner but I only played this with my buddies in high school – I didn't even own a copy of the game, just my GBA SP. So I had no idea you could do that. Still, it's more unwieldy than having another player cast it.

>>15436255

Well, it's leagues better than 2-player, with one person being the chalice bitch who has to put it down to help the other cast a spell

>>15436388

We always played 3 player. I guess I had a pretty unique experience.

>>15436782

thought i had stumbled into a secret of mana thread for a moment

>>15436813

I've also co-oped all of Seiken Densetsu 3 during a Thanksgiving break in college. It was only 2 of us tho

>>15431471

women are too selfish they would just keep the baby for themselves.

>>15436813

CC was developed as a Mana game but was rebranded to sell better and had the GBA thing tacked on as a sort of mafia style kowtow apology to Nintendo for having gone to Sony in the previous generation. There was seriously bad blood between them and you can't publish for Nintendo hardware without their stamp of approval. Reminder that Nintendo was founded by Yakuza and originally made gambling equipment and ran brothels. The Don had to be appeased.

>>15436835

Oh, the rebranding was also part of the kowtow. Nintendo demanded main star franchise presence before they could do anything else. That means Final Fantasy. Mana wasn't juicy enough.

>>15436881

I'm saying to go play CC with friends.

FF series keep betraying expectations for years now. Why will this be different?

>>15437269

Presumably because anyone who cared about Chrystal Chronicles hasn't bought a Square game in like 10 years and has no clue just how bad things have gotten.

>>15437269

Because this is a 'remaster' that so far has shown no visible evidence of an "HD" graphical downgrade, and what little we know of the gameplay seems on the surface to be an objective improvement

>>15437527

Getting gbas and cords is easier, but getting a group of people together in one room to play is harder than it's ever been

>>15433674

So are you gonna kiss that anon?

>>15439820

It came out!?

>>15452053

There's supposedly additional content in some areas if the latest nintendo direct is to be believed.

>>15431391

>had this game

>have 3 other siblings who each have a GBA at the time

>never completed the coop beyond the first 5 minutes

Crystal Chronicles is one of the funnest FF games ever made. This is going to be a day 1 purchase unless they jew it up with DLC and bullshit.

>>15452167

That'd be the stupidest thing on earth. They did add new parts to each level apparently, but no way in hell they'd be retarded enough to outright try to jew you out of content in a fucking REMASTER… right ?

>>15452167

They already jewed it up by making you pay for online play. Why would you buy it?

>>15452220

LAN parties like normal? My switch has never been online.

>>15452233

Not even sure if that's an option. I think they'll just go full jew and force you to connect online.

>>15452114

So $60 DLC.

>>15436127

The figure 8 pattern literally being broken aside resolution for drawings being too small to map the unmapped island aside, Phantom Hourglass was fine.

>>15431542

wtf I like Marxism now

>>15455026

If only

>>15455017

What would you expect from Nintendo? they blew their load with Mario and Zelda, now comes a fucking nasty ass drought, so they gotta fill it up with games from two generations ago. The problem now comes from Nintendo's battered wife tier dumbasses that eat this shit right up.

>>15466198

These are the best companies have to offer. It's looking pretty grim.

>>15455017

Well it's clearly working.

>>15431445

Pretty sure one of the reasons they decided to go with handhelds, as retarded as it was, was because they didn't want menus on-screen while in multiplayer.

I don't think it's a bad idea per se, the problem is that you required a brand-new console in order to play it.

I just wonder how do they got around that in the remaster.

>>15466193

It's more Square Enix than Nintendo in this case. They're doing the same on the PS4.

On a related note, is Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition any good? I just came across it on the e-shop and never heard of it before.

>>15478381

Pirate it and find out.

>>15431410

It obviously will.

>>15474996

Each player is doing to need their own switch.

>>15431391

>For Switch and PS4 in 2019. Looks like it'll have online play.

No Xbone?

>>15431391

>remastered

>not even a new fucking game

$60 full-price title, I'm fucking calling it now.

Bump.

>>15498731

Quite possible.

>>15498731

For remasters of late, they tend to only be $50, even in cases where the west didn't get the original version to begin with (also shocks me in such cases they still come with all the DLC here, rather than opt to jew us since we didn't get jewed the first go around; the fact it surprises me they don't is kind of disgusting, really). That said, considering how Square's tried (and gotten away with) asking a bit more for their stuff than competitors in the past, I wouldn't put it past them to ask sixty dollarydoos for a game I frequently see the original of for $12 around locally, complete and in good shape too.
