I find it annoying to play but if you never played the original you probably won't notice. The crappier loading times are more significant but it's a PSP game what do you expect?

Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness producer Shuichi Kobayashi has a proposal for Valkyrie Profile 3 saved on his personal computer, he said during a Dengeki Online live stream this morning.

During the program, the topic of Valkyrie Profile 3 came up while discussing Star Ocean 5‘s Valykrie Profile 2 background music content. However, Kobayashi shared the harsh reality that “if it doesn’t sell, we won’t make a sequel.” On the other hand, he expressed his personal feelings that “it is unfortunate to say that it would be severe commercially.” He continued, “If world becomes an place where everyone plays all sorts of games, I may be able to find the next game’s means of escape.”

Dengeki staff then asked for the “third V” and “sixth S,” referring to a third Valkyrie Profile and sixth Star Ocean, to which Kobayashi responded, “To be frank, there is a proposal on my computer. Let me show it already!” Dengeki staff was obviously surprised by this response, remarking, “Is it really alright to say that here?!”



so buy the so5 music dlc if you want a new valkyrie profile i guess

Meanwhile, apparently Japanese Star Ocean fans are in the middle of a revolt now, apparently?

There are no versions of FF3 worth playing that aren't named FF5. Seriously there's nothing 3 did that 5 didn't just improve on. The story, the characters, the combat, the jobs, it's all just straight up better.

There's no reason to play any version of FF3 because even if you wanted an 70 hour DS RPG with frustrating bosses and awful dungeon gimmicks Strange Journey exists and at least has that nice SMT shine to it.

It's from a neogaf post. Star Ocean 5 is changing a female character's design to hide their panties. Said change is going in to both the Japanese and English versions. I guess that image is from some Japanese forum posts or something, or just a joke I presume.

I, for one, want to be on the side of the xenophobic people screaming about children's underwear not being sexy enough so I can understand why this is a thing.

Also honestly that's like the tamest change in the history of changes.

Well I definitely did not play FF3 or 5 for the great story and characters. I dunno, I liked what I saw of my favorite Jobs - Red Mage and Monk - more in FF3 than I did in FF5.

Also I really liked some of FF3's music. Like, maybe it's just the fact it's fresh in my memory, but I prefer FF3's boss music to FF5's.
And yes, I heard Clash on the Big Bridge and X-Death's Theme. They were great. I'm just speaking generally. Also it was weird to learn "Big Bridge" is just a general theme for the area and not Gilgamesh's exclusive boss theme.

In today's insane posts about censorship though

quote:

As one of the comments states- We play tons of games where you outright chop living people to pieces and burn their flesh and smash their teeth with wrenches, but oh my god a visible butt??? Unacceptable! Nobody cares about whether or not "the creative director has that choice". The argument is about how it's a stupid distinction to make. The creative director shouldn't be making choices that he changes like this to begin with if that's the case.

With every instance of censorship like this- AND YES, IT IS CENSORSHIP- it reinforces the idea that we need changes like this. Did you see the poo poo with that Blizzard game? ONE PERSON on their forums called a pose sexualized and gratuitous and Blizzard said "Oh, okay, we'll change it" even though a male in the same game has the exact same pose and nobody even thinks the pose is sexual at all.

With every accommodation made for foolish people like that, developers lean further and further towards "Well, poo poo, maybe we should be careful. We wouldn't want one pissy fat housewife to get upset that one of our characters could turn on their ex-husband who left them when they stopped being attractive."

Disclaimer: I'm gay. I don't give a gently caress what kid of panties the girls wear. It's still stupid.

Ahhaha, I had no idea SA was doing a change on phrases, that's great

It is declaring your homosexuality in that very specific catchphrasy way that was so popular on GBS. The same reason Social Justice Warrior is now Robocop and cuckoldry is now something I can't remember.

My problem with the change of underwear is that it looks like she's wearing a diaper now. Why not just lock the camera so you can't look up in the first place or just have a black void or something?
