Ys 7 announced :dance: :dance:
-
Frickin' awesome! I just hope they bring that to the States and on the PC. :pray:
P.S. - The conventional spelling of Falcom is with one c and zero x's. :P
-
Typo fixed :P :lol:

I don't really look at new Ys games as Ys anymore, but rather just new action RPGs. Some of the sequels might be cool and fun, but they're just in such a different league from I & II. This isn't a bad thing, few games can reach the same heights that I & II did.
-
Yeah, what Keranu said.
:)
Still, it will be neat to see what the new games are like.
-
if Adol is on my PS3, I am a happy camper.
especially if it has Ramming Mode.

I've been an Ys fan since the very early Turbo days, but I think Ys 6 was amazing! I imported it on PC when it was first released. For me I got almost the same amazing experience that I did playing Ys Book I&II for the first time. I was blown away. A lot of it had to do with the fact that I was playing a new Ys game for the first time since Ys V Expert, but still I hold Ys 6 just as high as I do Ys Book I&II. I guess I'm crazy but I loved Ys 6 from start to finish. I also always find myself coming back and playing through it just like Ys Book I&II.
-
Ys 6 is the game that led me to pick a Turbo Grafx system. I had a lot of fun playing it, so I wanted to learn more about the series. So when I saw Ys I & II, I remembered how much I wanted to play it when it came out. I'm thrilled that they're bringing out a new game and hope it doesn't take too long to hit the States.
-
Ys games usually have one thing in common... fantastic music! Except for part 5 maybe, it had good music but certainly not as good as the others. I just hope they don't go orchestral.
-
An orchestrated Ys score would suck ass for a game. Same goes with any Falcom game, they makes the best musics.
-
Actually, it's starting to sound like the whole series will be released, possibly on PSP. Ys 1 & 2 Chronicles is supposed to come out before Ys 7, & my guess is that it's a remake like Oath in Felghana, which'll rock! Oath in Felghana(remake of Ys 3) has got to be my favorite Ys ever, along with Ys Origin. I'm deffinitly an Ys nut, part of it, is the super fast action & combo's(think of Ys with sword swinging, on speed, it's so fricken fun!), another part is the music(ofcoarse), & another part is how more of the grand story unfolds with each game. Especially since Ys 6, all the games have become more & more connected to eachother, & help explain things that are in Ys 1 & 2, & even Ys 3 is connected to 1 & 2, thanks to Ys 6(trying not to spoil anything for anyone that has yet to play these newer games). More & more we're finding out about what the Black Pearl really is, who the goddesses really were, not to mention more connections to the Romun Empire, I love these games!
edit-I forgot to mention, I really doubt that Ys 1 & 2 Chronicles is the DS games repackaged. The DS games were made by Interchannel, & Falcom had no input on it. I can't imagine Falcom even touching the DS ones, as they are up to Falcom's standards(not that they blow, but, if Falcom had done them, they would rock!). Also, note that in all the artwork, is the artwork for all the games. Instead of having Mask of the Sun artwork, they have Dawn of Ys artwork!!!

Any shot that YS V will ever be released here or translated by someone? I am kicking around importing that (unpopular) title. Has anyone played it?
-
It's been in the process of being translated by some hackers for awhile now, but I have no idea what that status is. I hope it wasn't abandoned.

is pretty alright. I have it on PC.
if they went orchestral Id be pretty annoyed.
-
Ys 5 SNES(not the PS2 version) has been fully translated, but not arranged & inserted. It's basically in limbo for the foreseeable future.
-
Ys 7, and Ys 1&2 Chronicle are BOTH PSP exclusive (for now)!!!

Better chances of a localization (COME ON ATLUS!!)
-
I wasn't totally thrilled with Atlus' translation for Ys 1 & 2 DS, Duless, Dahm, Labah, Palace of Salmon, Gorvan the Bandit, Luther Gemma, Lance Villiage, Lamia Villiage, etc. There were some that I didn't mind, Reah is more appropriate then Lair, & Dogi is just plain correct compared to Colin! So, in the end, I hope someone, like Konami, translates these, but, I just want SOMEONE to bring them over!

new pics up

Yuck! I'm not sure if I like what I see. Also why is this supposedly psp only? Is Ys Seven psp only or is it Ys I&II Chronicles psp only? Is Ys Seven going to be together "with" Ys I&II Chronicles? I'd just rather play it on PC like the other games and not have it limited to psp hardware. Gurumin and Zwei!! were nice on psp, but I'm not sure if I'd like a new Ys to be PSP only. After playing Ys with some amazing visuals on PC it's hard to go back to playing a new Ys on anything else. Not that Ys is all about uber graphics. It's just being on psp seems it could limit some things they might want to do. I don't know it's just wierd it's psp only. Thanks for sharing the info. It's interesting none the less.
-
Both Ys 7, and the 1&2 remake are both psp exclusive (for now).. Main reason is prob the phenominal sales the psp has had in japan for the last 1+ years now.

Crappy scans, but something for now

Better quality ;)

First I want to say thank you for sharing the info. I have been really excited to hear about a new Ys coming out. However everytime I see new pics I'm getting a bit worried. I really do not like the character design or more rather the art style on this game. I'm also curious as to why you have characters following you. Are they going to be playable and you can switch between them? That's kind of a nice idea, but Adol was usually always a loner on his quests, minus the help from Dogi every now and then. The psp one looks actually rather nice considering it's psp and from not so good scans. I'll still wait for a PC release.
-
The characters following you (from whats been heard so far) are AI controlled (to what degree no one knows yet).

Sounds like Legend of Xanadu II.

Ys I & II looks like an enhanced port of Eternal (which is what I was expecting), the main "enhancements" so far appearing to be crappy character art and a cropped screen due to the change in resolution.
-
I am digging the latest art....much better than the last Adol snap that we saw for 7.

Kewl.

As a big Ys fan, I'm just hoping the 7th entry into the series (and did I hear it was its last?) will not only provide the fast paced action that the previous entries in the series possessed, but also the kickass rock music provided by the Falcom team. It just wouldn't be Ys without them.
Still, I'm not sure if I'm digging the new character designs and the MMORPG-like interface. :? I just hope the end product will be good enough to satisfy and not alienate the Ys fanbase.
-
It's deffinitly not the last. Ys is there flagship series, there will always be more. There was some idea that Adol's adventures in Altago would be his last adventure before settling down(with Lilia?), but, this is wayyyy too soon in the timeline for him to put up the sword & shield, & farm for a living.
-
Really. :)
I guess Adol's adventures won't end until he's slain every ancient evil in the world and charmed every hot babe there is...because he's good that way. 8)
