3 character party?
Turn based but with characters and enemies moving in real time on screen?
X-slash combo attack?

Looks like the exact same system as Chrono Trigger. Not that there is ANYTHING wrong with that Smile

Sounds too sad for me though, I bet I'll be balling my eyes out more than Lucca's flashback...

Looks interesting, a bit Old School Vibes. But i hope they have Next Gen Graphics. Retro and such for Glory. But do not forget the Time we are living in

I hope for an Europe release

Square Enix describes the game as a "pure fantasy, true RPG" that carries on the tradition of JRPGs from the 1990's with party formation, shopping, dungeon capturing, tough battles, and tearjerker endings.


Wait, I don't ready yet for this thing. Shocked

This looks nice. But I'm kind of disappointed at the gaming scene in the sense that many of the companies aren't really tapping into what moved the industry back in the 90's during the Playstation era. But then again a good deal of our games were imports. Not knocking the CoDs or the Halos, or anything else but there has to be someone out there that can take what he took from those eras and apply it to making some innovative games instead of repacking something similar to Halo or CoD. I'm also upset that companies like Square during the time when they had it with the good ideas they had, managed to pass them over and the creators ended up going elsewhere. We've never seen anything like that again. I also understand that trying to create a triple A title takes awhile and when you get it that's only a trickle of the games you'll see over the course of a year.

But feelings aside, this game looks promising.

This looks like it's gonna be a real tear jerker. Hope it gets licensed.

The melancholy plot reads like the classic Dragonslayer
