Not sure why the other thread got locked, but may as well continue talking about the game.

Looked to have been a genuine mistake. Merged now at any rate!

I really, really want to watch these trailers, but I also want to go in completely blind.

Ugh.  This happens in every Souls game.

Just watch one or two and call it a day. That's not my Souls trailer philosophy, that's my general game philosophy: see enough to know what to expect, don't see so much that I know everything there is to expect.

Well what the hell are we supposed to call these?

I'm pretty sure 'no' translates into 'the'>>>'of'>'in the'. I mean, if we really want to get technical, it should be Hero Legend: ____ the Trails.

(My bad on the Nayuta thing though. That really should be Trails in the Nayuta, rather than Nayuta in the Sky, and I think I was running off of another Siliconera mistranslation when I wrote that instead of paying attention to the actual name.)

It's a reasonably simple Japanese name, not something overly long and hard to remember like Ore no Shikabane wo Koete Yuke (was given the unofficial name of Over My Dead Body, now officially Oreshika) or to a lesser extent Zennin Shibō Desu (translated to Virtue's Last Reward by Aksys.) It frustrates me more with Siliconera admittedly because they're supposed to be reporting the news yet they NEVER give the Japanese name and keep using their translations as if they're the official English name, but it's still a Japanese word that comes out as a two-to-four letter word in the Latin alphabet appended to "no Kiseki" and it won't kill anyone to try and actually remember words in a different language than your own.

You guys hadn't made a topic of this yet!?

It's out for those who backed, everyone else gets to wait until tomorrow morning/afternoon. Definitely worth it for fans of 8-bit platformers, especially those that had light RPG elements.

This topic has been moved to Single-Player RPGs.

I think Eusis was just referring to the practice of "derping" up someone's post in a quote to make a point.

This. It can be obnoxious to see, but if he's going to take a condescending approach like that to every opinion he doesn't agree with then we don't need him around.

Personally... yeah, those accents really were overdone. They reigned themselves in better for V but then it came out in the form of puns everywhere instead and seemingly arbitrary name changes so only I think two characters were left alone, and it sounds like a good chunk of them weren't even trying to adapt puns that were in the Japanese game. DQVI handled it best although that was still name change heavy, but it wasn't painfully so. However that was an 8-4 localization so it's less a change in philosophy and more a change in staff.

lol teh axents in dq4-6 suk amirite?

Stop this.

It's gotta to be a mobile game. For starters, 95% of Japanese gamers don't care about consoles but just mobile games and handhelds. So I could see this being at least a Vita game.

He's outright written off doing a mobile game (as in iOS/Android anyway) and there seems to be implications of wanting to do the next game on a console with statements like "looking forward to playing it on the big screen" or whatever. And Vita goes against the philosophy of going for the most active system, though I guess that's probably going to break next time anyway.

Nintendo said twice that it was coming this year. Excuse me for believing the game's own publisher. :/

It's a bit late, but after several other games in the past I tend to not believe a game is actually going to come out soon without more substantial information being shown, like characters and the game being named. Now that this is done and they announced 2015 as the release date I'm reasonably confident we'll see it then, whereas "X" always seemed to be shown too early.
