(+) Yeah! (+)

The pre-boss stuff doesn't doesn't look quite as unbelievably awesome as the initial wind dungeon gameplay we saw, but the boss fight looks straight up fantastic. Glad to see this is still looking good after this long stretch of silence!

Relink not Re:Link I guess I thought this was Kingdom Hearts for a moment lol

They scrapped everything Platinum did and started from scratch. What a shame.

Can't watch this RN but is that true? I heard Platinum was off, but I didn't think they would just scrap their work. Don't have a lot of faith in Cygames creating their own action game internally...

Do you have a source on that, Mac? I've been following this reasonably closely and while Platinum is indeed off the project as of February, all I've ever heard is that they kept all of their work and continued on with the project without them. (General thinking also seems to be that Platinum had already finished a great majority of their most important work.)

They said it on their stream (the source of the video). They're using their own in house engine for the game now.

Been wanting to see more of this ever since the last showing. Definitely still looks awesome.

I don't love the hit lag that's in there now, but by the end of the video I was barely even noticing it so I guess I'll get used to it pretty quick.

so dynasty warriors in dungeon and monster hunter/mmo sort of boss fighting

could be good

Finally watched. This...doesnt really seem like a character action game anymore. Seems more like Ys combat.

Not gonna say zero interest, but maybe 20% of the original interest. Pretty much was only here for Platinum to begin with.

Was it the Platinum A team actually working on it, or the B team that regularly handles licensed stuff?

If the latter, I'm not sure much was lost.

Ah, that is indeed unfortunate. The first trailer absolutely looked better but of this is still early in (the new) development then I think I can stay optimistic. Still sucks that a game that looked that good out of the gate had to get hit hard by development drama.

I mean the game is enormous worldwide, but I'm pretty sure it's doomed to failure in the US without the Platinum name. Not that that was gonna make it sell gangbusters...but we're talking about a Mobile game property that isn't even officially released in North America.

So if no platinum I can take this off my list

At least there's still the fighting game
