PSP Tactics Ogre Let us Cling Together EUR PSP-DUPLEX

European version leaked, wondering if I should grab it or just wait a few more days >.>

[Kiarax]

Must refrain until I finish RM3... oh God why do I have so many games to play at once?

[Julian]

I know this probably isn't the topic for it <_< but how is RM3? I grabbed it, but idk if I even want to play it, let alone play it in moonspeak

Wtf, when is the EU version supposed to come out for real? I was planning on just torrenting it if SE made me wait but if it comes out at the same time as NA version, I'll buy it >_>

[Julian]

25th for Europe, 15th for America, I think.

If anyone finds a PSP emulator, let me know.

Loving the music and of course the font... so excellent.

[Kiarax]

I love that, of all things, the font is being praised everywhere I look about this game, lol.

Spoiler: show

Fantastic so far, thought a bit easy since there's only one difficulty initially (Hard mode is balanced for post-game content basically, so you'd get curb stomped if it was available from the start). I can't see Namco ever localizing 2 or 3 even with the recent Graces news... probably way too many VAs to hire (80 characters in RM3, 76 playable...) and they seem hesitant to release games with the original Japanese audio for some reason, even though I'm sure most people would prefer that to not getting the game at all. It's certainly easier to play through than mothership titles in the series too, so I'd give it a try if you're in a Tales-mood. If you wanna see some real gameplay of it I've been uploading stuff (boss fights namely) on YouTube here. Nothing particularly spoiler-y, since they recycle bosses and crap from other games like Abyss.

Amazon same-day shipping isn't available for my zip code, or something. ;(

Even though I live in a fucking major city.

Is this already out in NA? Or coming out tomorrow?

Out tomorrow/wednesday. Europe version has already been leaked.

Just started this up, does alignment make a big impact on the game? I assume the tarot card questions at the start of the game were for that but I'm not sure, not particularly bothered about it but I see you can choose alignment when you hire new recruits too, so does it have an impact on how well units work together (guessing it's like the zodiac system in FFT)?

[Arnwulf]

I really, really hate when a reviewer knocks an RPG for a lack of multiplayer. Seriously, do we HAVE to have multiplayer in every game now for it to be a good game?

[SephYuyX]

Obivoulsy.
Hell, I prefer single player games, and usually dont buy a game if it's multiplayer.

man, i JUST started playing the undub version of VC2. Now i have an urge to finish it fast to get started with this ;

[Kiarax]

Man this game doesn't fuck about. 3rd (or was it 4th, I can't even remember) fight has such stacked odds against you. Enemies 2 levels higher than you on a massive uphill climb and almost all of them have ranged attacks that do half your health. What the dick. Denam, Vyse and Canopus seem to be 10x stronger than the other units I hired too which I don't really understand considering they're essentially the same level... oh well.

[Odesseiron]

So, having never played this.. would you suggest I buy? I do enjoy SRPG's or whatever you want to call them. Everything I've read has been extremely positive about this game, and strongly considering picking up tomorrow with MvC 3.

Story characters seem to be stronger than normal units in general. Wait until you get an archer person Personally I struggled with the fight at the beginning where you have to save a girl - until I read about a certain trick to get the attention of enemies she would get killed even before I got half-way to her lol.

@Odesseiron

If you like SRPG's then there's nothing really to think about - just get it.

[Doombear]

Agreed. Any SRPG fan or Tactics Ogre fan should have this. It is great! Also love the storyline... I have forgotten so much that it all feels new.
