Dragon's Crown

I want it.

stupid question but
i know the game is about 1 GB (i think) but will dragon's crown be available on psn digitally on day 1? i plan to download it since i got no cash right now but i got a Lot of PSN credits on my account

Positive reviews all around the net, as expected. Unfortunately I won't be playing this until its EU release (in two months time). I totally forgot about Xillia that's coming out this week as well so I'll invest most of my gaming time in that, at least until Dragon's Crown comes out.

What a good week this is for J-RPG fans though.

I know that feeling, I want to get both games as well, but my back log is kind of large at the moment and I still have quite a number of games that were and are coming out I need to get, but time and money won't give me the freedom. Looks like I may have to wait a bit.

Got my copy in the mail today. I plan on starting it soon.

Same here, just got my copy a few minutes ago. Along with Tales of Xillia.

If anyone wants to play together, send me a message.

You have to beat the game once to unlock multiplayer online.

Disappointed. No full dual audio. Narrator and NPCs are still in English. I'm not sure why I expected Atlus USA to do anything right for once.

damn, really? Well looks like local co-op only for awhile.

Is the English good, at least?

I mean, Odin's Sphere had a good English track.

The cast is fine. They have a good selection of voice actors.

I don't like it personally but I guess it could be called "good". I didn't like Odin's Sphere's dub either.

So is it that you just don't like dubs whatsoever? I'm like that with films; whenever possible, I watch it in the original language.

I like experiencing things in their original languages. I dislike the concept of "localization". All I want is "translation".

It also seems silly that this game has dual audio for only your selected character.

Yeah, that does seem kinda stupid. Wait-

Does that mean conversations are Japanese for your character, while whoever they're talking to responds in English?

I don't even know if there are conversations in the game. I've only played like an hour so far. I'm pretty sure the "story" is mostly told by the narrator.

How much did it cost, by the way? I didn't even realise it was out- I thought it was supposed to be more like mid-August.

'Sides from the lack of dual tracks, you liking it so far? Is the Sorceress nice and bouncy?

4 player offline co-op'd with friends for about 6 hours. Jesus Christ, it is just like a DnD game with each one of us going through gear, skills, etc. A lot of waiting around before going to the dungeon.

My friend was laughing her ass off when we were turning in the beastmaster quest. Because we had to turn the quest in one at a time, the art for the quest unlocked 4 times. We kept zooming-in on the jaguars saying, "Oh man these Jaguars look amazing! Why is the Jaguar so happy? What are they smiling at?"

Likes: The voice acting is good for english, [color=red]be sure if you buy the game this month to get the free DLC for the narrator voice pack.[/b] Basically the narrator becomes the voice of one of the 6 characters. They will charge 2 bucks after this month is over.

Game is gorgeous, fluid and smooth. My friend liked the art and got over the whole booby thing pretty fast and she is kinda those churchy people that run youth groups.

Gameplay is hella fun.

Dislikes: Original control setup. You can switch it so that the D-Pad moves your character and the analog controls the item usage. Using items kinda sucks ass because it stops you in the middle of action, but they are patching it soon and allowing L button usage to cycle through and select.

Offline Co-op kinda messy and goddamnit one person can drag 3 people towards one way and or vice-versa. 4 cursors popping up all at once and clicking the shit out of everything. Aaand it is pretty hard to keep track of where I am in the chaos.

If you run elf with other elves, they take up all your goddamn arrows. This is getting patched though.

Upcomng patch notes if you haven't seen them.
