Hot off the heels of their Nindie showcase, Nintendo have announced a new Nintendo Direct, focusing on the new mobile role-playing game 'Dragalia Lost'. The direct will air on the 29th, at 8:30pm PT. They have also revealed that the game will release on the 27th of September, about a month after the stream. The game was first announced back in April, and will be launching on iOS and Android devices. It is being developed by CyGames.

Here's the reveal trailer, just in case you don't remember:

Is this another hero collecting game like FE heroes?

So non nintendo nintendo mobile games now?

I stopped taking it seriously the second I saw the chibi model. This shit needs to stop.

I haven't watched the video, but probably. The "gacha" model (spend ingame resources to pull new heroes/characters/whatever, option to get more resources for real money) makes by far the most money because some people get really dedicated and spend thousands of bucks trying to get their favorite anime waifu.

Yeah, I don't mind some cuteness, but this is way too much, it give a very weird feeling to have kawaii / chibi design with normal voices

It's a bit sad that a lot of J-RPG go down that path, I know it sells a lot, but there was a time when we had a little bit more choices, and everybody could find something according his tastes...

Considering how low res/poly the models are the chibi models feel a little justified at least. It's the reason the outings miku has had with rythm games on 3ds are chibi is cause of the small screen size. the exadurated animation allows them to display expressions easier. now as for other rpgs on home consoles...well, they have no real reason aside of artistic choice.

Yes, particularly in japan there is a ton of gacha games
idolmaster, kankolle, girls frontline, granblue fantasy, and fate grand order being some of the most popular ones

I don't think that I've ever seen a Nintendo Direct quite that boring. Pass, for me.

 

[Deleted member 420418]

Game looks to boring to me so i think i will pass.

 

[KingVamp]

Well, I missed the direct, but I seen some clips. Seems alright. Might play it alongside, FEH and DX2. Anyway, I know what they are going for with the easy one hand use, but I really feel like this game should have been made horizontal.

Only playing FEH 'cause fire emblem chars. Not interested on mobile games even if they have the big N brand.
