It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.
The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.
Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."
1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.
If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).
Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.
Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.
@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.
I approve of this god damn message.
Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.
There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.
Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.
Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
This is not the first time that Bless Online receives a server merge in Korea. An announcement was made on the official Korean site.
Bless must be an amazing game to be on all these platforms (according to the tags): iPad iPhone Nintendo DS PC PS Vita PS2 PS3 PS4 PSP Wii Wii U Xbox Xbox 360 Xbox One
Ugh, more on the entitlement thing...
The thing that bothers me the most about it is that people use it in all the wrong ways. For the most part, after fully gauging and reading over the Mass Effect thing I understand the "whiners" point of view a bit better. They bought the game (each game in the series) experiencing a universe that reacted and responded to decisions the player's made. The entire thing was to be a build-up based on player-made decisions and the end was supposed to reflect the culimination of those decisions that happened across three games. However, that's not how the game ended.
The Capcom DLC thing was certainly not a case of entitlement...when gamers buy games they want the complete product. Even if people didn't get privy to the on-disc DLC there were still missing features, such as the Gems and the color mechanic which is basically useless given that it only has two colors. Entitlement? No, it's called consumer satisfaction.
Music and movie enthusiasts would never tolerate the kind of raping gamers have let themselves endure. It shows that gamers have yet to mature enough to fight for their rights as consumers.
I read the article and i thought it was boring and full of filler sentences with no valid points.
You are seeing so much complaining because of the greed and dirty tactics of publishers.
If you spend your money on a product shouldn't you have every right to express you dissatisfaction with that product if you were displeased with it?
I mean, Bioware could have said no, and in any regard this is a win win the dissatisfied get what they want, and those who enjoyed the ending don't have to play the new one.
