They did call her the "governor general" of Celceta, so I expected her to be from there. I also finally understood what you mean by "they have characters reappear all the time as NPCs". xD 5 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: And will become more important in the future of the series, i bet Her profile does say she's the fourth princess of Romn, so I would expect her to! 5 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: game over? Because that's usually how that battle ends he's a bitch to fight xD He is, very much so. And I did have a really hard time, but I actually defeated him. Had to burn through all of my healing potions and meals I've cooked, but somehow, I was able to scrape out a victory. I also, uh, kinda got a lot of mileage out of Dana's projectile attack, especially once he started going really crazy on his last health bar, so maybe that helped my case.

Reminds me of that one time in Celceta where i was having trouble but i found a corner i could stay in and used ranged attacks from there xD Hooray for cheese! xD My main motivation to win was that I hadn't saved in a while, and REALLY didn't want to get a game over and lose all the progress I made up to that point. I also... somehow managed to forget that auto-save is a thing, so... er, yeah. xD 18 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: And she's also very unhappy with the way Romn is doing things Euron, Griselda, Kathleen... There's a neat ensemble to bring back once the game taking place in Romn rolls around! 15 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: wew boy does that look bland So it does. Dang. Someone just took the artworks of each character, slapped them on a semi-yellow background and called it a day, it looks like. xD --- Oh, by the by. Something I completely forgot to talk about, regarding Ys 8: This boss I had to fight with Adol alone was great. And this attack of his in particular was... very familiar. Observe those circle things on the ground in both screenshots. I don't even mean that in a negative way, considering that Blueblood Dragon Mavelus is my second fav boss ever, so I very much welcome the reminder. Nights of Azure is Gust's Ys, and it might be likely that Falcom got a little inspired by Nights of Azure in some elements of Ys 8. Not saying that that's a bad thing at all (Nights of Azure IS my favorite game ever, after all, and Ys 8 has been a blast, too). Just a general observation!

DragonFlames Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) Also... now that I've said that Nights of Azure is Gust's Ys (gameplay-wise, Ys 8 reminds me a lot of NoA, which is a VERY good thing)... I want an entire game series starring Arnice! Make it happen, Gust! x.x Make prequels that show what happened in the 800 years between Arnice becoming a half-demon through blue blood rain and meeting Lilysse! Or sequels that show how Spoiler Arnice and Christophorus travel around the world searching for Lilysse, as per the true end of NoA2! Just give me NoA3, Gust. Please...

DragonFlames Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Just now, Shrimperor said: BR2 happened, so don't give up hope, Ys-youngling True! And that's something I would never have considered happening in a million years, considering how low-key Blue Reflection was (I didn't even know it existed until last year). It even got an anime (that I still need to watch, but I'll wait until it's done and then watch everything)! Also, I kinda want Gust and the Ys team of Falcom to band together to make a game. An Ys x NoA crossover. Throw some classic Trails and some Atelier in there too, if you want. That game would be amazing. Just have Gust take care of the music nowadays, assuming modern Falcom... XD Atelier Ys: Trails of Azure Nights Something like that. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't call Atelier Meruru one of the best OSTs in the series for nothing. xD 6 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: Jo hat looks so much better already ^^ It's similar in spirit to Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millenium Girl, which is what I immediately thought about when you posted that art: 6 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: But maybe thay are afraid of putting the Elie X Alisa crossover in the forefront because they are gonna give the players a choose your Waifubando system again or something That could be a likely explanation, though I personally wouldn't think that upon seeing it, haha!
