>Sega will host the first in a series of “Sakura Wars: Imperial Theater Propaganda Department Report” official broadcasts on June 26 from 20:00 JST to 21:30 JST, the company announced. It will be live streamed on YouTube and Periscope.

>The live stream will feature various information related to Project Sakura Wars and the Sakura Wars series, including many new details and first live gameplay of Project Sakura Wars.

Should be fun to watch, although I do worry about rumors that they're turning it into a standard JRPG rather than an SRPG.

I'd post an archive, but archive.vn isn't archiving right now.

Wasn't that Valkyria Chronicles spinoff poorly received? I feel like they'll be more cautious after that.

VC1 was very well received. VC2 and 3 did great in Japan. Their biggest problem was that they completely ignored the console side of the market for almost a decade before making a grand return with a generic action JRPG reboot with broken mechanics that absolutely nobody wanted. Then followed that up by releasing VC4 with practically no advertising. Given how hard it was for me to find a physical copy, they either pissed off retailers rather badly - or they simply under produced the title and decided to focus on digital sales. Then, without any launch hype, got buried in the shovelware that clogs most online stores.

VC4 should not have failed as badly as it did. It's not a great game, but there's a lot of JRPGs that are much, much, worse and yet still have a much higher store presence. Sega fucked up something massive on the backend.

I've only played V in English. Gameplay combat takes a while to get used to. Just abuse Joint attacks when you get more party members. Combat gets tedious, with only the boss fights actually being scary. You lose relations with a character if they lose in battle, so the consequences are high. Some boss fights tended to drag on, like when fighting Ranmaru again, with that revolving chest piece to hide his weak point. Last boss reminded me of Dark Fact; the fucker has an AoE move he sets up and then uses because it gets to use 2-3 attacks on one turn. The story is over the top, and so are the girls. There is someone for everyone and you better pick Gemini faggot.

Sengoku was civil war Japan, that's the 16th century. Even if you want to extend it past unification, it would end after modernization in the late 19th century. Pre-WW2 Japan is usually called Meiji (early) or Taisho (later) because those were the calendar names they used. Or just call it pre-WW2 Japan, whatever.

Meiji and Taisho are the same period referenced differently depending on the generational gap and sociopolitical perspective of the Sengoku era's latter decades. Boomers call it Taisho while millennials call it Meiji.

Damn dude, you don't have to reply three times.

>>16634112

The Japanese call it the Sengoku Jidai, or "Sengoku Era", so yes, it is its own era.

>>16634052

Japan modernized in the late 19th century. They spent a few decades conquering territory and embarrassing the Russians. The Sengoku era does not include this time frame.

>>16634112

Meiji was the name of the calendar after modernization, then it changed to Taisho. People refer to the different times by the calendar names.

>hat's what you sound like you idiot

That's my point. How can you fuck up dating that badly?

The calendars are tied directly with the reigning emperor. Meiji was presided over by Emperor Meiji, Taisho by Emperor Taisho, Showa by Emperor Hirohito (aka Showa), then Heisei by Emperor Akihito, and the newly minted Emperor Naruhito ushered in the new Reiwa Era last month.

>The Japanese call it the Sengoku Jidai, or "Sengoku Era", so yes, it is its own era.

Jidai was the name of the emperor that heralded in the Sengoku era you moron. It's not Japanese for "era". Era in Japanese is 期間 meaning "period" aka "the Sengoku Period".

>They spent a few decades conquering territory and embarrassing the Russians. The Sengoku era does not include this time frame.

>19th century Sengoku era

>not included in the Sengoku era

This is getting ridiculous. Guess I need to 2+2=4 you now:

The 19's were the 19th century. 1945 is the late 19th century, obviously, and the modernization of Japan began in the early 19th century, which also is part of the latter period of the Sengoku period.

Do you get it now?

And maybe if you stopped behaving like a pompous jackass insulting people then maybe you'd catch a clue and sound more, I don't know, reasonable.

>Meiji was the name of the calendar after modernization, then it changed to Taisho.

Because of the generational gap, you fathead! Like I said.

>People refer to the different times by the calendar names.

They only got tacked onto the calendar because of sociopolitical perspectives to begin with which rifted between the older and newer generation. It's painful having to repeat basic knowledge to you.

>You're fucking retarded

Year 0 you, idiot. Anno Domini begins with Year 0, then goes into 1, 2, etc. That's why it starts from negative numbers before that.

But fine I think I screwed up the math a bit so I'll give that to you. However the Sengoku era DOES include the beginning of WW2 and that confusion is what lends to a lot of anime like the game is based on.

No. The series is closed, the story finished, and all the online shit that followed is a completely different franchise that just happens to share the same name.

>Skies of Arcadia

An HD port for fags who can't figure out how to emulate on their shitbox consoles. That's about as far as I'd take it. I don't trust a modern game to do anything other than completely shit up the legacy of the game. They couldn't even be managed to give enough fucks to get a GameCube version working right, what makes you think they'd strike gold with a sequel?

Rieko definitely needs to work on more stuff. All I ask is that the projects are kept moderately low-key so that she can have more creative control without the suits and market analysts coming in to fuck it all up - and that they're internally localized and released in the US with subtitles.

I wouldn't mind another Magic Knight Rayearth game though. I need a mid-90's magical girl fix
