• Yell at Walrus to laern internetz code
• Hexyz Force will be out in English on May 25th (YOU BETTER BE BUYING IT)
• KittenPSP will be out in Japanese on April 22nd
• http://bu.sting.co.jp/ (it's apparently a prequel to Yggdra Union)

That is all.

Posted by: P.P.A. Mar 12 2010, 01:52 AM

Is it known already when Yggdra Unison will be out in English?

Posted by: Rhiannon Mar 12 2010, 02:29 AM

It is not even known that it will be English, though it's certainly assumed that it will.

Posted by: Archeia Mar 12 2010, 03:39 AM

I wonder if it's episode 9

I'm broke, y'all

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Posted by: WhiteKnight Mar 12 2010, 09:52 PM

So why does it feel obvious to me that the white horse-mounted silhouette is Baldus?

Posted by: Rhiannon Mar 13 2010, 12:22 AM

I dunno, but from the terribly small scan I saw (on Siliconera, I think) it's some red-haired person named Garlot.

Its not episode 9. Its a prequel to Yggdra Union.
http://i61.servimg.com/u/f61/14/81/80/98/0810.jpg
Look at the picture and gameplay, it looks very similar to Yggdra Union.

"Set in the Bronquian Empire before Yggdra came along and unified it for herself, Blaze Union's story is centered around the Blaze Knight Corps, a rogue army fighting against the land's corrupt emperor. You control Garlot, leader of the corps, on a series of campaigns against the evil empire, the story branching this way or that depending on your decisions."

Posted by: Archeia Mar 13 2010, 02:10 AM

Yes, and what I mean is, the fact it's a Prequel to Yggdra Union, it means that it's PART OF THE DEPT. HEAVEN SERIES right? <_<

For Example:

Blaze Union -> YU->KitN->Riviera

But, why would they make a similar title again. Also they said episode 9 was going to be their first 3D game and it would be on the DS.

Posted by: Archeia Mar 13 2010, 02:28 AM

Not sure if the title matters but I just found out it's being developed by another team in STING so it's probably not part of it, but idk.


ALSO 3D? I HATE YOU NOW STING. DS 3D IS GODAWFUL.

Lookie lookie, looks like Satoko Kiyuduki isn't the artist. The game itself looks like a fanmade version of Yggdra Union.

Posted by: Archeia Mar 13 2010, 03:50 AM

Yeah saw it hours ago. The artist is Kousaki Rui and that Knight totally looks like a girl =w=

Posted by: P.P.A. Mar 13 2010, 06:10 AM

Not sure if I approve of how Sting has been pumping out seemingly cheap games like Yggdra Unison, Kitten PSP and now this lately...

Also, effeminate knight is effeminate.

How can Garlot be female? He's clearly Gulcasa's father.

Posted by: P.P.A. Mar 13 2010, 08:06 AM

New (?) trailer for Knights in the Nightmare; it includes a few gameplay scenes in the background.

Posted by: San Aurora Mar 13 2010, 01:46 PM

I expect to love this game, because I loved YU.

I WONDER IF THE DARK HAIRED GUY IN THE BACK IS THE BADGUY?

Also, too many girls. That fencer might not be female, but I'm not sure.

Posted by: Yuka Mar 13 2010, 04:17 PM

If it follows YU standards, then that fencer isn't a girl. Classes are gender-locked I think in YU.

On a side note, stop this, Sting. Start releasing games I actually want to buy again. :<

They weren't cheap! Yggdra Unison was $60 while Yggdra Union PSP was $20. Also, so many games to buy for me! I already bought Yggdra Unison but then there is Knights in the Nightmare PSP and Blaze Union! GAH!!!
I'll just wait till they get localized or something...

Cheap as in it didn't cost a lot to make the game.

Posted by: Hayashi Tenshi Mar 13 2010, 10:10 PM

"It" doesn't have to say anything, it's just so obvious.

Because you bought Yggdra Unison. Also, $20 is cheap, especially for a game like Yggdra Union.

Posted by: Rhiannon Mar 13 2010, 10:35 PM

Yeah, like, I'm pretty sure I spent at least $40 every time I bought a PSP version of YU.

Also, that knight doesn't look effeminate. He just looks horrible. :( However, me being me and YU being my favoritest DHE game so far, I will play it, and I will enjoy it, because I love YU's battles.

Posted by: San Aurora Mar 13 2010, 11:02 PM

Garlot is female, according to several websites. Why couldn't she be Gulcasa's mother? You act like he could only have some self-replicating father.

Posted by: P.P.A. Mar 13 2010, 11:13 PM

Gulcasa gave birth to himself.

Those websites don't know anything. Garlot is a knight.

Posted by: Yuka Mar 14 2010, 12:02 AM

Women can't be knights, duh.

Posted by: San Aurora Mar 14 2010, 01:48 AM

There's a female bandit.

Posted by: Enzd Mar 14 2010, 01:50 AM

No, that's a griffon rider without her griffon.

It is impossible to have too many girls in a video game, especially if they're in armor kicking ass. Warrior women > any other kind of character ever.

That silver haired gal with the axe, I assume. And Griffin Riders use spiky clubs, they're just classified as axes.

I don't want this game to be a harem. :/

Posted by: Enzd Mar 14 2010, 04:01 AM

They can use axes if they want to and this one clearly wants to.

Posted by: Hayashi Tenshi Mar 14 2010, 05:06 AM

Garlot can be Gulcasa's grandma.

Posted by: Archeia Mar 15 2010, 12:42 PM

I'm pretty sure Garlot is a dude and the silver haired girl is a griffon rider. Probably.

Oh for goodness sake Sting, stop ripping off YU game mechanics and don it with new skins, it sucks!

I'm hating this, what a rip off.

Posted by: Rhiannon Mar 18 2010, 07:53 AM

This is the first time they've done it, unless you count the PSP version. Yggdra Unison had a completely different system.

Also, Hexyz Force is actually pretty fun (and definitely not as generic as it looked, gameplay-wise). Well, it is if you can get over the terrible warp puzzle that shows up early in the game, anyway...

Also, I guess it's worth a try since I don't need to buy games.

Posted by: sandpenguin Mar 20 2010, 06:15 AM

I'm started to think that Blaze Union is a story concerning Bly.....the thoughts just bugs me, so yeah. "Predecessor"

Cell division.

Also why are there people running around in 18th century clothing (like this enemy commander with the long coat and the jabot or those two... cowboy people)? This kind of ruins the credibility of the Late Mediaeval setting. :(
Other than that, looks pretty awesome.

Suddenly, Emilia being Gulcasa's half-sister makes a lot more sense.

2nd that. YU is completely medieval. Adding Napoleonic and Revolutionary clothes really spoil the game, especially for a prequel of YU! DX BTW, nice one on that mitotic process! Or maybe meiotic with differentiation? XD Classic!

@Miki Tres: Yggdra still wears the same outfit as YU. Man, can the clothes reassembled themselves?

W00t, my Aegina is there! But I'll wait for the localized one. Have some big exam coming on.

Posted by: Archeia Mar 27 2010, 04:52 PM

Baldus, Aegina and Luciana, If I'm not wrong that's Eudy with the canons and...of course, Nessiah. Still can't believe the girl is a bandit, was hoping they'll stick to the gender class thing :(

Posted by: Deathless Mar 27 2010, 06:56 PM

Emilia looks 5 years younger. But Yggdra looks a little elder than she was in YU. I think a woman in video is Yggdra mother.

Posted by: P.P.A. Mar 27 2010, 07:13 PM

Nah, I think that's just the art style.

That one guy's clothes are actually from about the second half or last third of the 1800s.

http://bu.sting.co.jp/

They added character information, a wallpaper, some stuff you can put in websites or something and a link to the blog which isn't finished.

If you click on the first card on the main page and enter 17174 you can hear Garlot say something and then his battle sprite will be on every other page of the site... I don't know what the point of this is.

Posted by: San Aurora Apr 10 2010, 03:07 AM

What.
Garlot is male now? Mass mistranslation?

Posted by: Enzd Apr 10 2010, 05:37 AM

Garlot was never not male.

Posted by: Rhiannon Apr 10 2010, 12:17 PM

I'm assuming there was only one mistranslation/misassumption and then everyone else just ripped off whoever was the first site. Since they're lazy and do that a lot.
