What about that Persona 5 Scramble thing? Will it get an English dub/localisation? If it doesn't, I'll be incredibly disappointed.
I just hope it doesn't end up like Persona Q2, and only get an English translation, while keeping the VA solely Japanese; that cripples immersion and playability, since I wouldn't be able to understand what's being barked at me during combat or cutscenes.

 

[anhminh]

Where the hell is Atlus?

 

[Kadji]

Sega blew it hard...

30 Minutes of Cathrine Full Body...
And on the same day the PSO2 Twitter is tweeting about how it's Sonic Big Birthday today...

Come on Sega, was it so hard to finaly show *something* about the new Sonic game you are working on?

 

[Clydefrosch]

Getting sonic unleashed vibes from ys.
Also getting tired of adol, can't he get like a kid at least? Pass on the sword already.

 

[CactusMan]

I like that Shyren the Wanderer game. I´ve always had a love for broken Mysterious Dungion games like Torneko and Chocobo. I´m gonne play that on my toilet! I´m hyped!
I played the demo of Pokemon on my Switch but that game was to pollished. A good Mysterious Dungeon game just let´s you die and win at random if you are skilled.

 

[leon315]

Those japanese has weird fetish about to Church people, especially num, they are always sexualized in every games, wonder why.......

 

[DoubleDate]

Bloodstained 2 looks promising, the first one was good to play too.

 

[SSG Vegeta]

I'm surprised that there was no announcement for Genshin Impact for Nintendo Switch. I really want that game 0.0

 

[Jonnysert]

Just when you think you’ve seen it all, along comes a Corgi in a mech suit.

 

[eriol33]

Shiren the wanderer is great. I love this kind of game.

 

[DarthDub]

Ys IX baby!

 

[Glyptofane]

Not too surprising to see Inti Creates carried this event. I keep trying and failing to get into the older Ys games too, but maybe I should skip to the more "modern" ones since IX looks pretty good.

I have found myself in a similar situation with Ys over the years.

I've played the TurboGrafx-16 version of Book I & II, the bad version of III on SNES, and bits and pieces of others like VI, Origin, various remakes of I & II, and the IV The Dawn of Ys fan translation.

I bought VIII a year or so ago and never played much past the intro, but also recently bought Memories of Celceta on PS4 and really got into it for some reason. Now I have a renewed interest in series and am planning to try out VIII again which everyone says is great, largely recommended above Celceta which is said to be more similar to VII in style.

I want to get the rest of the games now, mainly the ones available on Steam. There are PSP versions of I & II, III, VI, and VII that could be experienced for free by many of us, but are also likely inferior versions. I'll be watching out for deals on these, maybe with the upcoming Steam Summer Sale.

inti creates and kojima productions are the new konami. the "konami" you see after 2017 is nothing more than an impostor. bloodstained ROTN, 1 and 2 are great examples of this. Though does this mean we'll be seeing another ritual of the night soon???
