Also vita port was dropped. EDIT:Seems the SE facebook says it's digital only. http://www.usgamer.net/articles/i-am-setsuna-director-wed-consider-the-vita-version-for-the-us If you want a vita version speak up ask SE on facebook and twitter.

FlareXV Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) A person on Gem said that they saw a PC version pop up too, does that mean Square might be moving onto PS4/PC JRPGS only in the west? If so, god bless Satoshi in this time of darkness. The game looks nice, I would have preferred a Vita version because it looks like a nice handheld game to mess about with. R.I.P Satoshi!!

MMDE Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) OMG YES! Their new development team called RPG Factory that they introduced last E3 is making something I probably want to play! Get this on PS4 and I will buy it! Edited March 14, 2016 by MMDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I heard that the Vita version had slight performance issues, so I don't mind it not being ported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, that's a good reason to not port it. I did see the first week sales of IAS and they weren't too good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetectiveCJ Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I wouldn't mind platinuming this game - I used to be one of the hell kids who played the hell out of Chrono Trigger. (Never finished Chrono Cross, I got to the final boss and couldn't get the good ending - screw stupid gimmicky fights. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_of_Ra Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) "I Am Setsuna has a Chrono Trigger-inspired battle system and brings back the “authentic RPG gameplay, beautiful art design, and sorrowful story” of the classic Japanese RPGs to the current generation. It is led by director Atsushi Hashimoto and promises the “narrative depth, impactful storytelling, and masterful character development” of yesteryear." Very nice. This is why I used to like these kind of games, they made the story aspect very important in a video game for me. I'll be keeping an eye on this one Edited March 14, 2016 by Lord_of_Ra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonidol38 Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 It would have been nice to see this title on the Vita in the west. Even the load times would have been "okay" (not the best to wait ~13 seconds when going from map to town but it's somehow acceptable for me).Sadly I don't feel the urge to play the game on PS4. It's not that I'm the kind of gamer that wants top-notch graphics on console but it would have been nice to play the game in shorter time intervals. I don't want to boot up the PS4 just to play for 5 to 15 minutes. But let's see for what price it will be released. Maybe I will still grab it day one.

D-Tron Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) Also vita port was dropped. digital only. Well that certainly made my decision to not purchase this become so much easier.Oh well, that's money saved for me I guess.

I think if it's 20 you should grab it it looks fun. It is a shame about no vita port or no physical copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Oh god that naming... simple and... ugly... Why couldn't names stay in their proper form... or translated form. A person on Gem said that they saw a PC version pop up too, does that mean Square might be moving onto PS4/PC JRPGS only in the west? If so, god bless Satoshi in this time of darkness. The game looks nice, I would have preferred a Vita version because it looks like a nice handheld game to mess about with. R.I.P Satoshi!! Actually, on the contrary. They made it easier for me =D I was wondering whether to buy it for Vita or finally have a game for PS4 after months. Good, SE, I can live with that. I shall not accept chibi FF PS4-only, though.

skinner49 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 GameInformer has this to say: The first project from Square Enix's Tokyo RPG Factory has been announced, I Am Setsuna, and the game will come out this summer on PS4 and PC via Steam. The label's aim is to create games reminiscent of classic JRPGs for the current systems. Tokyo RPG Factory says that I Am Setsuna's battle system is inspired by that of Chrono Trigger, so at least it's aiming high. BTW, here's Dan Tack's sleuthing from the original announcement.

ShadowReplicant Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I was thinking of picking this up quite a few times but the reviews on Amazon are less then encouraging. I guess it's not exactly a priority right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
