Eternal Sonata/Trusty Bell, Chopin's Dream Options

[Dr Strum]

This is a story about Chopin. Yes, Tri-Crescendo's first solo game is to take place in the deathbed dreams of famous piano composer, Frédéric Chopin. It's a semi-action RPG semi-in the veins of Star Ocean and the Tales series. Essentially, when it's your turn, you can move around freely for about five seconds, and attack as long as that time hasn't depleted. There's more to it, such as Baten Kaitos-styled class-up implications where you get less time or something but get new things like chaining special attacks and such. Shadows also play a role, with attacks being different whether used in light or shadow, and enemies entirely changing forms between the two. Anyways, I've been looking forward to this game more than any other game I've been interested in, ever. Late at night it haunts me with its frosted beauty.

Oh, and, now that you're interested, it's for Xbox 360. :P

* I named them for the Chopin music played throughout them. I don't really know of any official names for them.

*cries* Games like these make me want to go get an XBox 360. I actually won't be surprised if I do get an Xbox 360 just for this and, if it makes it to America, Blue Dragon.

Blue Dragon has been announced for America for a LOOOOOONG time.

I really like the music Sakuraba composes. Even if I never actually play the game, I'll probably end up getting the soundtrack.

A lot of people apparently don't. :/

And, the video I promised: HERE
Watch as I embarrass myself by trying to use an attack I do not have currently equipped! And as I try to take a picture of the bird's ass! Sorry I couldn't get a video nicely detailing the transformation in light and shadow, but those fucking birds avoid the light like the plague.
