Dragon's Crown (Vanillaware RPG, now 2013 all regions) announced for PS3/Vita

I wonder if playing with the Witch is gonna be distracting with how big her breast are... is like they want me to play this with one hand. :|

[Dice]

.... >_<

On the other hand, I love having breasts of my own.

Now that I remember there is a mode in where you can play Bayonetta with one hand. It made the game easier and the guys at PlatinumGames even post a video on their website showing some woman of the staff playing with one hand and all.

Needless to say, they really know their audience.

The first two images on Google Image Search for this game are the Amazon and Sorceress. So... yeah. Look on the bright side! At least it's not Mugen Souls!

I like the elf more anyway. I always had a particular preference for elf characters.

Yeah, this is just typical sexualization of grown women... to the point of parody possibly.

Anyways, it's at $50 for PS3 on Amazon now. I wonder how much beefier the game is, I expect at least an NSMB Wii-esque scenario where we're getting pretty much the exact amount of content we'd have gotten years ago on 8-bit or 16-bit platforms.

I hate you so much I can taste it in my balls.

Thoughts

1) Now that atlus is behind this we dont have to worry. Amazon has this as june 2013 now. Done. Dont have to think about it

2) Now what we have to worry about is xseed and grand knight history

Were Ignition saying the PS3 version was going to be $30 or something?

There was something in Atlus' PS3Blog post about "no way can this be $30" that I don't ever remember hearing about.

[Eusis]

I don't know if they formally announced that, but both versions were $30 on Amazon.com before being quietly canceled a few months back.

I really had vanillaware pegged for having a keen sense of aesthetics.... taking that into account I don't know how to really judge the presentation here.... on one hand I hate it, despite being well done.... on the other-hand, intended or not, I think its hilarious how this looks to be a complete satire of western comic/D&D illustration which I abhore.... I know saying I have a distaste for your Boris and Frazetta styled illustration being a tattoo artist here in the states is borderline-sacreligious but I can't help my personal taste.... it is what it is.... I don't know whether to laugh or cry as a result of the illustrations for this title

Klyde: Kamitani (founder of Vanillaware) worked on the old side-scrolling D&D games from the 1990s.  This game is supposed to be similar in style.

Wow, no kidding.... I don't know my ass from my elbows when it comes to much outside the realm of your JRPG.... particularly anything that has to do with company lineage.... now, given that is the case, I'm even more impressed with Odin Sphere whose visual style ranks amongst my favorites in recent history. The illustrations for that game actually help motivate me to get to work on the days when drawing does in fact feel like work to me.... I wish someone would come to me for an odin sphere tattoo.... I think I would do it for next to free just to get to do it....
