Lost Odyssey: scan and infos
2006-09-14 06:34:09 by snoopers
It's coming finally ! Famitsu just revealed a lot of informations about Lost Odyssey, the game engine, the combat system and the playable demo, as well as an awesome screenshot. See more in the news.
Update : Full scans added!
The game engine will run at 30 fps, and the character models for the movies are almost identical to the realtime models, which have been checked closely by Inoue, the character designer. We also learn the game will use a command menu driven interface for the combats, we'll get the powers of any enemy defeated, and there'll be no game over, as the main character is immortal. At least, a few words about the demo. It will be available in Japan in early November, it will last about one hour and won't feature anything but the most basic parts of the combat system. No character growth system as well. We can't wait to grab you videos of the game next week, at TGS.

Great is an understatement. Can't wait to see this in motion!!
Looks like a traditional turn-based RPG, which is cool IMO.

How great the game looks actually manages to shine even in low quality scans like this :D
I think its more than traditional turn based sakaguchi mentioned something about controlling a movie action sequence or something like that. Either way I think we all know this game will look incredible in motion :D

Will this have proper real time scrapping or turn based bollocks that all Japanese rpgs seem to have?
Looks like the later from this screen shot.

Scan looks like a regular turn-based battle tho, judging by the characters' stances.
Anyway, it's nice to know that it'll have interactive cutscenes. Love those. Maybe it's something like QTE's on Shenmue?

That's in-game alright :) Because the image is low-q and it's a magazine shot, you won't see much details so it looks extremely good (note: I'm liking this game too :P)
I don't mind the 30 fps limit, because that looks good on some games.

This concept sounds 100 times better than FF13. Thanks Sakaguchi, and I can't wait for the demo.

Awesome game, I can tell, and that the trailer shown, its "almost" like the gameplay graphics it is most definately worth the wait. But there is something I do not understand.
"...the game will use a command menu driven interface for the combats"
Does this mean that it will be kind of like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic game, were you choose what kind of attack you want and it will do it in real-time? Because if its like that then im all for it, better yet if its like turn-based/real-time action RPG game. But if its one of those "typical option driven hit A to attack and wait for your enemy to attack back" system, then no, I do NOT like it at all, kind of like Enchanted Arms.
And beside if the demo will come only in Japan, will it be on disc or marketplace?
I hope its both or just marketplace, I really want to download this game to see what kind of gameplay combat system it has.
