What the hell

Posted by: Rhiannon Mar 31 2011, 01:44 AM

Apparently Yggdra's a really fat cow now.

Well, at least the staff looks a bit more promising than BU's. Just a bit. One of the character designers is Hiroshi Konishi (who did stuff from Radiant Historia and Radiata Stories) so that's awesome. Really, even without the name it's obvious the art is way better and more consistent than BU's. I don't know anything about the Dokapon dude anyway.

But uh. Is the name of the kingdom really "Euphoria"? Or am I just misreading that?

Posted by: chrishawke Mar 31 2011, 02:24 AM

I'm seeing it as "Euphoria." Can't see it any other way at the moment.

Posted by: Yukira Mar 31 2011, 10:38 AM

Character design looks better, however everything else didnt impressived me much. The way they did they style, menu, color,... seems somewhat plain, careless and doenst fit each other , well that's just my opinion from what i see in those first screenshot. Didnt see anything new in gameplay, hope we can get something better in the next update.

Btw, it always reminds me http://i484.photobucket.com/albums/rr201/giundat82/Euphoria.jpg when I hear Euphoria word :).

Gloria Union's website up: http://gloria.atlusnet.jp/

Nothing but a splash page at the moment. Site's grand opening in around 3 days.

SPECULATION

[22:11:26] <&Rhiannon> Oh right
[22:11:31] <&Rhiannon> Gloria Union later today
[22:11:37] <PPA> Yup
[22:11:45] <PPA> I THOUGHT IT WAS AN APRIL FOOL’S JOKE
[22:11:54] <PPA> Then I saw that the site was put online on the 31st already
[22:13:52] <PPA> I guess the Union means it’s another YU/BU-like game. If you control ships instead of infantry and cavalry… Well, could work. The linking of unions would just be a fleet of ships simultaneously bombarding the enemy one.
[22:14:10] *** Noir!IceChat7@PSI-C716B0FC.dial1.atlanta1.level3.net ist #lcn beigetreten
[22:14:11] <PPA> UNLESS IT’S YGGRDA UNION IN PIRATE WORLD, THAT WOULD BE BORING
[22:14:15] <PPA> Greetings.
[22:14:33] <Noir> Yggdra Union in Pirate World doesn't sound awfully exciting eihter
[22:14:35] <Noir> *either
[22:14:56] <PPA> That was my point, yeah
[22:15:30] <PPA> Perhaps we’ll get an undine named Schopenhauer.
[22:15:45] <&Rhiannon> Oh right
[22:15:47] <&Rhiannon> EVER SINCE I SAW THAT BOAT
[22:15:49] <&Rhiannon> I WAS THINKING
[22:15:54] <&Rhiannon> "WHATEVER UNDINE JOINS IS GOING TO BE TOP TIER"
[22:16:09] <Noir> I GOT A NEW COPY OF CHRONO CROSS
[22:16:11] <PPA> (AND THEN WE’LL GET AN UNDINE WITH HYDROPHOBIA)
[22:16:21] <&Rhiannon> AND THEN I'LL SADFACE
[22:16:23] <Noir> That would be rather funny
[22:16:53] <&Rhiannon> We probably will get something that ridiculous since we had an eternally-drunk Undine in BU :(
[22:17:06] <&Rhiannon> OMG
[22:17:08] <&Rhiannon> YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT
[22:17:10] <&Rhiannon> LAND UNDINES
[22:17:12] <&Rhiannon> IT'S LIKE LAND SHARKS
[22:17:14] <&Rhiannon> EXCEPT STUPID
[22:17:29] <PPA> LAND UNDINES WITH CYBORG LEGS ON A DESERT CONTINENT
[22:17:37] <PPA> *STEAMPUNK CYBORG LEGS
[22:18:03] <&Rhiannon> THIS IS SOUNDING PRETTY AMAZING
[22:18:18] <Irysa> uh
[22:18:22] <Irysa> how would they be undines
[22:18:28] <Irysa> anymore
[22:18:30] <Irysa> then
[22:18:38] <&Rhiannon> Cyborg legs don't make you not a fish
[22:18:44] <Noir> yeah
[22:18:49] <Irysa> on a desert?
[22:18:50] <Noir> haven't you ever watched Futurama?
[22:19:03] <Irysa> nigga those ain't undines
[22:19:19] <&Rhiannon> LOOK
[22:19:21] <&Rhiannon> YOU JSUT TAKE AN UNDINE
[22:19:21] <Noir> same principle
[22:19:30] <&Rhiannon> AND STICK IT IN A SEAT WITH CYBORG LEGS ATTACHED
[22:19:56] <&Rhiannon> I'M PRETTY SURE A SHARK GOT INTO SOMETHING LIKE THAT ON ONE OF THOSE CARTOONS
[22:19:57] <Walrus> and how will that make it a land shark?
[22:19:58] <&Rhiannon> BUT I DON"T REMEMBER WHICH ONE
[22:20:02] <Irysa> DUDE
[22:20:04] <&Rhiannon> We're not talking about that anymore
[22:20:04] <Irysa> UNDINES
[22:20:04] <Walrus> The Oblongs
[22:20:06] <Irysa> ARE WATER ELEMENTALS
[22:20:06] <&Rhiannon> YEAH
[22:20:06] <&Rhiannon> THAT
[22:20:13] <&Rhiannon> AND SHARKS ARE FISH
[22:20:14] <&Rhiannon> SO WHAT
[22:20:15] <Irysa> HOW CAN YOU BE A WATER ELEMENTAL WITH CYBORG LEGS
[22:20:18] <PPA> WELL THEN THEY HAVE WALKING AQUARIUMS
[22:20:29] <PPA> OR WATER-FILLED BOWLS AS HELMETS
[22:20:34] <Irysa> ...UNLESS THEY ARE STEAM POWERED
[22:20:36] <Irysa> AW SHIT
[22:20:42] <Walrus> you're all stupid
[22:20:58] <Noir> [15:17] <PPA> *STEAMPUNK CYBORG LEGS
[22:21:18] <&Rhiannon> OMG
[22:21:19] <&Rhiannon> (Link: http://www.stagepics.co.uk/origamidb/images/models/12400_Shark.jpg)http://www.stagepics.co.uk/origamidb/images/models/12400_Shark.jpg
[22:21:24] <&Rhiannon> WHAT I GET WHEN TRYING TO FIND A PICTURE OF THE LEGS
[22:21:37] <Walrus> ...
[22:23:15] <&Rhiannon> This is the most exciting conversation that's been here in weeks
[22:23:18] <&Rhiannon> You shouldn't hate on it, yo
[22:23:32] <Noir> You guys never talk anymore
[22:23:36] <Noir> And I'm never here :(
[22:23:39] <Walrus> it's nowhere near exciting
[22:23:49] <&Rhiannon> Then your sense of humor is boring

And then we talked about Disney. I hate nostalgia.

Well I'm glad I didn't stay up all night waiting for this.

Posted by: Rhiannon Apr 4 2011, 06:25 PM

WHEN DID IT EVEN UPDATE I GOT SICK OF WAITING AT LIKE 9:30 AND WENT TO SLEEP

ALSO VOICES. Going to try to make ridiculous alternative romanizations to any name where my first guess isn't already absurdly ridiculous because I know the official ones will be even worse than anything I could ever come up with if BU is any indication. I WANNA BE THE VERY BEST.

Isht/Ishut: Hiro Shimono
Pinger: Emiri Katou

Posted by: Rhiannon May 12 2011, 12:19 PM

I am so disappointed. We've got an Undine but she's no mechapirateundine. :( And more voices:

Elisha/Ericia: Shizuka Itou
Lulu/Luroo: Kana Hanazawa
somesortofrealname/Zazarland: Keiji Fujiwara
Locomoco: Ai Nonaka
Phoebe/Fibby: Ayaka Shimizu
Raspberry/Lathvelly: Minori Chihara

Making up horrible names is kind of fun.

Posted by: Enzd May 12 2011, 05:44 PM

So... we might have gun users in this one? I wonder if they're going to replace bow users or if there will still be some of those. Also, CANDY WITCH.

Posted by: Rhiannon May 24 2011, 06:20 PM

So guys did you hear? My state's in this game now. And judging by his voice clips I'm pretty sure he's going to be the best character in the game.

Minnesota Grey: Shinji Kawada
Keela: Shizuka Itou (AGAIN)

KLAAAAAHHHHHHH

Posted by: Enzd Jun 19 2011, 12:43 PM

Is it just me or have the updates for Gloria Union been more boring than the ones Blaze Union had? At least with BU we had quite a few videos giving us a taste of the music and showing some of the new characters in action.

Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 20 2011, 02:37 AM

Why have you done this unSting? Why does Yggdra need to be in this with a gigantic gun. Why?!

Also, all the voices I haven't done yet.
Blackmore/Vrakmoore: Naoya Nosaka
Logan/Rogann: Tusugo Mogami
Galiored/Gallioreddd: Kousuke Takaguchi
Melanie/Melony: Aki Nakajima
Garm/Galmu: Tsuguo Mogami
Ita/Eater (actually Eater's apparently the official romanization): Minori Chihara
Pamela: Ai Nonaka
Anne Cormac/thisissillyenough: Aki Nakajima
Yggdra: Mai Nakahara

And apparently there are five fansite kits. No clue how long most of those have been up since I haven't been paying any attention. ISHUT PINGER AND LOCOMOCO CONFIRMED FOR OFFICIAL. And uh. Lots of new cards.

Posted by: CATGUN Jun 20 2011, 10:49 PM

Oh look more Yggdra Union!!!!
Sting sure love Yggdra : D

Her weapon this time is the "Centurio Buster." It's so huge, it still keeps her as a Badass Adorable.

Pamela's in this too?

Ita: Fear me, my weapon is a harp. (Nessiah's, from the other games, is a book and it's still pretty strong so...)

Galahad uses a gunblade.

Logan is the first named skeleton for the series (I think).

Blackmore's sword has no pointed tip like most swords. Are there real swords like that? I wonder why it's like that...

And yeah, loads and loads of characters in this one (like the rest of them).

No one's an archer. It seems like gun users are the archers in this game.

Omnomnom, delicious rock.

Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 24 2011, 04:33 AM

Well, I'm kind of depressed by the fact that the official romanization for Lulu is Ruru. And Rogan instead of Logan... which is probably good since I can only think of one fictional character named Logan and I have a hard time killing the associations. Cartoons are bad for you. Anyway, I haven't beat the game yet so ask me anything. And I'll, uh... wait that doesn't work... Nevermind. I'm just gonna leave this here (spoilers yo, for like BF17 or BF18).

AND I LIKE THIS MORE THAN BLAZE UNION BECAUSE THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY TRYING HARDER EVEN THOUGH THE STUPID ISSUES FROM BU THAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE EXISTED (AND NEVER DID IN YU) STILL EXIST AND STAT RAISING ITEMS STILL SUCK. Boats are awesome and fog is creepy.

Posted by: Enzd Jun 24 2011, 05:09 AM

So no X-men jokes :(

Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 24 2011, 10:45 PM

SO ME AND ENZD (actually pretty much just Enzd) ARE AMAAAAZING and made Chapter 3 easier for everyone to get what they want. This is pretty much only spoilers if you don't want to know which scenario gives you who or what.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Posted by: Enzd Jun 24 2011, 11:12 PM

It should be noted that after you complete five scenarios the story continues and you cannot attempt the three that remain. Also, the fame numbers don't seem constant and we don't know exactly what gives and takes away fame.

Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 25 2011, 04:24 AM

TRACEY/TRACY'S A BITCH BUT MOSTLY I HATE MEDUSA EYE AND THE WAY SHE CHOOSES HER CARDS.

That is all. Also on Chapter 6 now.

Eh, I excluded her because the fact that she has a scene is creepy enough.

Meteor damages the enemy units... or Locomoco's units. Personally it's too much of a gamble to be worth it, but the card starts with a lot of power.

Posted by: Brook Jun 25 2011, 06:13 PM

Cool, i like gambles. And i like lolis.

Btw, what good things do the new classes have to show us?

Posted by: Enzd Jun 25 2011, 11:03 PM

Here's what I've been able to gather about Chapter 5.

THIS GAME IS HELL AND I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE WHAT HARD MODE WILL BE LIKE OH GOD

Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 26 2011, 01:52 PM

FINALLY BEAT IT. So many ragequits before the final chapter. The actual final chapter was fine. Spoilers for everything kind of. AND YOU CAN PROBABLY ACTUALLY ASK ME ANYTHING NOW UNLESS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH FAME.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


SO YEAH HEY. HERE'S SOME OFFICIAL ROMANIZATIONS. Laugh at them, because they're really real.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


And none of the new classes are really interesting. Well, none of the ones I saw. Enzd was talking about fighting sea goblins I think but I only found them in houses. And Sea Goblin Milk. Yeah... Anyway maybe I'll post new card stuff and whatever class stuff I remember later when I'm not in pain from abusing my eyes.

MINESODA

Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 27 2011, 02:30 AM

It's a person. And a place in the real world! I'm pretty sure Kitten and this game were made with LCN in mind. Just so you know.

ALL THE NEW CARDS:

that's scary. you realize that, right?

So anyway, I had a lot of fun playing this and thought it was quite good despite a weak ending. I took a lot of screenshots of stuff and I'll upload them later so everyone can see the new engrish!

ONE YEAR LATER, I DO A SECOND AND THIRD PLAYTHROUGH AND GET ALL THE ENDINGS. C end is best, though it's also got the hardest final boss. Also I still don't know everything that affects fame (it still went up/down seemingly randomly at some times during battle, unrelated to Kiss of Death but possibly related to items I picked up), but I do know that usually it just changes based on how fast you clear each BF in comparison to the MVP/Excellent bonus turn limit thing. If you go over that, you'll get negative fame, but if you go under it you'll get positive fame. I don't think it's possible to get negative fame before chapter 3, though, even if you go over it every time.

SO HOW TO GET THE ENDINGZ, JUST IN CASE ANYONE STILL NEEDS TO KNOW:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Also, as much as I whined about Pamela ruining everything in my second playthrough because she was weak to all the ridiculous Undines in the game (MOST NOTABLY THE JERK WITH THE ROSARIO OF ASSHOLERYHOPE (which is the Rosario of Hope you know, except its effect is blocks charges instead of the useless thing it had before)) THE FACT IS PAMELA IS AWESOME IN THIS GAME. All because of her skill that gives her the full power of Geo cards regardless of terrain. Which means: you can have everyone anywhere eat that glorious Tec+4 - Gen damage formula and you can overkill any Undine that isn't already dead. I maxed out Sand Storm in my third playthrough because it was just too good. My only regret is that I didn't also use Man Trap.

And Fiebee IS top tier (AND UM "なんだ? 殺す前に私で楽しもうと言うか。 だが残念だったな。 私の下半身は魚だ!" OKAY WHATEVER YOU SAY FIBBY BUT I THINK THEY COULD TELL JUST BY LOOKING AT YOU SO OBVIOUSLY NOBODY WAS THINKING ABOUT THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE), and Hard mode AI IS a huge jerk. And 6-4 will forever live on in my memory as the worst BF in the entire series.
