Actual new games? None personally. Fan translations, there's a few groups I've been keeping my eyes on, but those tend to be "it's done when it's done." Surprised to see that Granhistoria is actually still in the works, but I'm not especially happy with how the translator stated they were handling things years back on their own blog. Not like that's going to be out this year though. On another note, I'm still left to wonder what exactly the issue is that D-D has with Super Shell Monsters Story II that has prompted it to sit at 99% with a "we are still discussing whether we will release our English patch for this game to the general public" note on it for years now.

Someone with a twatter needs to tell Kingcom that aerie.wingdreams is broken, if he's not aware yet. Maybe if he fixes it, he'll also get off his ass and post an official progress report about Dragon Quest Monsters I&II PS1.

>Screenshots

I do hope they pick a slightly better font for the final release since it seems a bit bland, but that's just me, and I assume doing so might throw off the text flow.

My hopes are currently pretty crushed for new releases.

13 Sentinels being cancelled for the Vita took the wind out of my sails. One of the only games I was excited for in current year, gone.

I wouldn't want to support Soyny anyways with the current censorship, but it still hurts greatly.

I hope they port it to Switch with physical copies, and I hope the rumors about the Switch getting a dedicated handheld model this summer are true.

>new games

Fuck journalists, fuck social media, fuck the indie scene, fuck AAA publishers/studios, fuck youtube and e-celebs and streamer fags, fuck television, and fuck people in general. The point is, because I actively avoid all this shit, I tend to miss out on the latest happenings around the world, including announcements for new games. It's because of this that I don't have anything explicitly to look forward to, and instead I just wait for shit to hit the release date, and then judge it based on footage and screenshots of, and various comments people make about, the final product.

>>16348367

Also, I saw that Soul Blazer and Secret of Mana got "relocalization" patches of late, but I haven't seen anything from anons yet as to how much, or if, they're that good an improvement over the existing scripts. Certainly don't trust the one for Phantasy Star IV, which also got one of late, on the grounds that the translator (editor? not sure) is a self-acclaimed Working Designs fanboy who says the game's script needed to be rendered more fun to read. Anyhow, I have to wonder if any anons have played the former two with their patches, and can comment on if there's a proper improvement to accuracy or not.

>>16348377

I'll admit I haven't kept up with it, but isn't 13 Sentinels apparently turning out to be a VN based on that preview that was released? I could be wrong; just going by disappointed reactions I'd seen in a thread on it a while back, as if Vanillaware continuing to stick with Sony wasn't disappointing enough.

>>16348387

After it was cancelled for the Vita I completely stopped looking at anything new for it.

If its a supposedly VN, that only lessens the pain slightly and raises a lot more questions and doubts.

I have never been disappointed by a Vanillaware game yet; I'd be very surprised if this wasn't a real game.

>stick with Sony

I think they're unfortunately in a very awkward and bad situation.

A lot of people have guessed the game to be in development hell.

If that's true which it very likely is, they can't really afford to change platforms because the costs would be too great; they already are ridiculous if they've been developing the game for upwards of 4+ years. The most they'd be able to (likely) do is release a Switch port after they've gained some revenue from the PS4 release, presumably a year afterwards. Problem is that Atlus really doesn't like to do multiplats, in fact they have almost never done that.

>>16348367

>I do hope they pick a slightly better font for the final release since it seems a bit bland

I think it's been tweaked a little in the dev's versions but it's fitting into the games 16 wide character limit.

I remember seeing a screenshot for a jap dungeon crawler that showed people fighting, presumably at least, monsters on a beach that got my attention a few weeks ago but never really bothered to look it up. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Later this month for Dragon's Dogma on the switch.

Code Vein sometime this year.

Rune Factory 4 Special sometime later this year.

Metal Wolf Chaos sometime this year.

One Way Heroics 2 possibly this year.

Kemokko Lovers 10 in December

>>16348423

I meant to mention it was a modern day like vacation beach with umbrellas and skyscrapers in the background.

Assuming Mordhau actually does release this month I will probably play that and little else for awhile

I just *bought* Zanki Zero, my first visual novel, saw a video of the demo and looked kinda interesting. How much have I fucked up?

>>16348477

extremely so. They not only censored the game to hell but they are censoring people on the (((Steam))) forums complaining about it

You should refund it.

>>16348480

Well fuck me , time to refund and pirate. Thanks for the heads up, Anon

>>16348406

Yeah, I expect it's probably due to existing contracts or something, but even then, they have to be aware that after the shitstorm Dragon's Crown caused back in the day, they'd be a major candidate for SCEA to force to bend the knee.

>Problem is that Atlus really doesn't like to do multiplats, in fact they have almost never done that.

To be fair to Atlus, in a number of cases, they're not even involved in development, let alone the original JP publisher. I'm just saying.

>>16348491

Always do the research.

>>16348438

>Metal Wolf Chaos

Actually, that would be one of the few upcoming titles I have interest in, but that's on the assumption it both isn't fucked with, considering the delay providing potential opportunity. Also find it a shame that apparently Devolver wouldn't do a retail physical release, and I'm not sure if it's even getting a limited print run at this point anymore either. But I'll admit I haven't especially been following how that's been going.

>Code Vein

The fact it's Sony exclusive is reason enough for me to be leery. Bamco's censored games that came overseas before both to keep regional ratings the same as prior (Tales of Berseria and PEGI) and to meet single country demands (JJBA and Germany's Nazi censorship); I can well see them bending to Sony's current stance towards the games on their systems, but that's on the assumption there's anything lewd in the game to prompt them to get offended anyhow.

>>16348490

any info on that game? Do we get to play as a custom made qt and slay onis?

>>16348551

>The only info that's been said about it is that there will be character creation

The official upload of the trailer and a few press releases mention it's set in the Sengoku era. This is easily missed as that bit doesn't get translated.

Where the hell is Sakuna of Rice and Ruin? WHERE THE FUCK IS IT?

Also Cyber Shadow/Katana Zero seem to wish to fullfill my 2D ninja/samurai itch so those two.

Just remembered that Custom Robo spiritual successor the original devs are making.

Pokemon Orange romhack is nearly finished. Author working on post-game and is actually soliciting testers to check the balance/level curve (though currently only to see how much interest). Staff of Ages (FE8 romhack) is making good progress too.

Hoping Metal Wolf Chaos releases in good condition.

>>16348543

How about playing as a custom made qt and _lay with female onis?

Noita

Creeper World 4

Rune Factory 5

I hope it emulates well because I'm not buying a console for one game.

It's this year? I thought it was still pretty early in development.

>>16348669

It seems I missed that part of the OP, my bad. I still hope it releases this year, I know jack shit about game dev but the latest videos seem pretty playable.

>>16348649

I heard this is just an upgrade to what Pathalogic should have been without the budget and time constraints. As such I'll be glad to play this game for the first time when it's actually worth my time.

>>16348678

I don't know either, but yeah it looked playable. It looked good too, with all the modifiers and shit making levels look like a race against time rather than turtling until you get enough AC/Power to bulldoze through to the spawners.

>>16348682

I'll be honest, I didn't know it even existed.

>>16348685

Christ, yes. Despite how much I enjoyed CW3 the moment I realised every objective can be turtled the game lost much of its shine. Even the Sleeper AI on those enormous maps can (and too often needs to) be turtled. A multiplayer mode wouldn't hurt, I'm curious about what kind of strategies would develop.

>>16348276

>Princess Crown Saturn translation will be out this year

What the fuck? Why not the PSP port? Saturn emulation is dodgy as fuck while PSP's is nearly perfect, and failing that you can get a PSP for basically pennies.

>>16348611

2020 at the earliest, the guy developing it suddenly decided to revamp the combat system to give us what is essentially oboro muramasa but in 3D, the early trailers only showed the farming part of the game and a """serviceable""" rune factory-like combat system, that and kuSOnY is probably pestering him, remember that this is a doujin game.

Knights of the Chalice 2

Looks like single player roll20 with toee combat

Only downside is squaregrids not hex

>>16348743

Hex grids are just square grids with a half unit offset

>>16348682

also, can I get some source

>>16348774

iqdb.org

saucenao.com

>>16348730

because the psp port sucks and it's not about emulation.

The SoM relocalization patch mostly reuses the old FuSoYa VWF patch as a base with some tweaks. In that case, it's more of a "What if Ted Woolsey had more time and space for his script and didn't need any censoring of names" than a super overhaul. The bigger changes are fixing the visual edits back to how they were in the Japanese version with the hi-res title screen and pentagrams and everything.

>>16349350

Those homebrew games sound pretty neat. How do you keep updated on this stuff?

>>16348276

>the Princess Crown Saturn translation will be out this year

lmao they've been saying that for about 5 years now.

>>16348387

I've played the Secret of Mana one. It's not bad (like that fucking PS IV one). What little text there is flows a bit better than the original. But to be honest there is so little text in that game it didn't really need it.

The big problem is they scrubbed Squaresoft's name/logo from the title screen entirely. The nerve of these people….

>>16350174

no, the devs haven't been.

Yakuza Kiwami 2 got announced for PC so I have that to look forward to. I'll be waiting for the eventual PS2 music mod.

>>16350991

Why must you hurt me like this?

I'm looking forward to pirating Blazing Chrome.

>>16351963

They repeatedly said during that AMA that Timesplitters wasn't up to them, but that one other company I can't remember the name of. Just in case you're stupid enough to still have hope, that one other company whose name I can't remember were the ones that pushed to make a Phoenix Point (I believe, correct me if I'm confusing two games) Tencent Store exclusive. So even if we do get a Timesplitters collection on a format worth mentioning and if it's somehow a quality product, there's a very good chance that it will be exclusive to Tencent Store.

Also it wasn't on the list of E3 games they leaked at the time, which contained some other unannounced things.

Assuming it gets an English release.

You sound really gay and retarded. I hope the next cock you take gives you ultra aids you faggot.

>>16359853

Try speaking in the language of everyone else instead of memes & slogans

Not really anything except maybe Cyberpunk 2077 and a new armored core game if that gets announced this year (which i highly doubt will happen)

>>16360464

>Assuming it gets an English release.

Already confirmed.

>>16363906

Didn't know about this Noita.

Getting some Liero vibes from it. Nice.

Can't wait for Monster Boy to come out on PC.

>>16363992

That's probably the best game of 2018. You'll love it when it's out, it's superb.
