2shy reviewed it and didn't like it on account of "meh" writing and difficulty spikes. Looks like it's trying way too hard to be Earthbound and failing IMO.

edit: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3828221&pagenumber=1165&perpage=40#post488066811

he's right about the difficulty, though permanently setting it to Easy mode brings it closer to classic Earthbound and away from a demented Earthbound ROMhack

he's off-base about the writing, though, at least the parts that he talks about. the game has plenty of structure to it - the first mission introduces you to the Bad Thing threatening the world (whose presence and identity is made abundantly clear) and then you spend much of the remainder romping through different continents to re-unite the main character's family members, who also double as your party. the real issue is the "it's all just a dream" thing, which makes some of the symbolism really obvious and doesn't make the stakes feel as pressing as they would in Earthbound itself

Who remembers Left Alive, the Front Mission spin-off that Squeenix is developing? It got some mecha gameplay footage:

Considering this is the only voice cast the games gonna have, and how big of a get a new reveal for the next Kojima game is, my guess is that overshadowed the entire trailer having to be subtitled for the local audience.

There’s gonna be a Japanese dub

It's sort of taking inking used for calligraphy classical Japanese landscapes, then using it to draw people with a lot of detail and modernity.

Least that's what it looks like to me. Thick ink brush outlines and water colour.

Cautiously optimistic about this as it looks more interesting than that really ho-hum Front Mission action game they made a few years ago. Sort of has an Armored Core vibe.
