BooneIronshield Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) First off I'm sorry if there is already a topic about this, I searched the entire site for MeiQ and only found posts about it in the "Project Platinum" section. MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death is a first person dungeon crawler like Demon Gaze, Operation Abyss, Dungeon Travelers 2, Stranger of Sword City, Wizardry, Class of Heroes, Moe Chronicle, etc. It will release on September 13th in the US and September 16th in the EU. The regular edition is currently available for pre-order through various retailers and the limited edition is available to pre-order through Iffy's Online Store for $57.99 - http://www.iffysonlinestore.com/Meiq-le The game's webpage - http://ideafintl.com/meiq/ Game features both English and Japanese voiceover with English subtitles. Taken from the above page in the "Story" section - "One day, the rotation of this planet stopped. The world was shrouded in darkness, and monsters roamed freely in the endless night. To return the planet to normal, it was necessary to wind the Planet Key. The young Machina Mage, Estra, sets off along with her Guardian to challenge the Four Towers, and the Deities within. The Five chosen Machina Mages, the Three Shadows of Darkness, and the mysterious Dragon Skull Warrior... Can Estra overcome the many trials she faces, and bring light back to the world? Estra's adventure now begins." Gameplay Screenshots - 10 Images. More images are located on various pages of the game's site. Limited Edition Pictures - 6 Images Given it's a first person dungeon crawler I naturally had to pre-order the limited edition.

Satoshi Ookami Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Oh, the game that is too much for Australia. More dungeon crawlers are always welcomed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonidol38 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Everytime I see that character designs I have to think of all those low-quality OELVNs on Steam. Totally not liking it. As I'm not a dungeon-crawler person I will skip this game. Still I'm curious how it will be compared to the Experience Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 As I'm not a dungeon-crawler person I will skip this game. Maybe you would skip it anyway. If it's not rated in Australia, the same could happen to Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not rated in Australia, the same could happen to Germany Nah, a non-rating is not a game-breaker for me. Sorcery Saga also wasn't rated in Germany (seems like Rising Star never send it in for the rating) and I own it. And it was already rated by the USK with a age 16-rating.

Dragon-Archon Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death is a first person dungeon crawler like Demon Gaze, Operation Abyss, This definitely piqued my interest. I'll be keeping an eye out for this game. I like the reversible cover, more games should do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinalMiracle13 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Are these how dungeon crawlers usually are? Because those characters where fighting with like guardians next to their avatars and crap and I've never seen that in a dungeon crawler before.

Typically no, though certain ones do give you summoning abilities, such as Etrian Odyssey and Dungeon Travelers 2. I've never seen one where it's such a fundamental gameplay mechanic like it appears to be in MeiQ though and it's actually one of the things that's really got me curious about the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demon Gaze also has summoning abilities, but only 1 demon can be summoned at a time and summons only act once per turn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I knew I was forgetting at least 1 lol. I also forgot that Operation Abyss has it with the Conjurer class too, though I've never bothered with that class beyond creating it for the trophy lol.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that class. It was introduced so late into the game and I didn't want to train someone from level 1 again, so I ignored the Monk and Conjurer. Platted the game using the team I got from the start . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPolydeucesx Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) I'm playing it now, and I can say one thing for certain: it's good. Edited August 20, 2016 by xPolydeucesx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisty123 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) Oh, the game that is too much for Australia. More dungeon crawlers are always welcomed. Australia have banned a few games this year, Just wait for the VR to come in, everything will get banned due to interaction. Could be time to move to another county for me. As for the gamestyle could be an interesting concept I am just worried that the summons may go over the top. Either way my UK version is ordered still get the AU/NZ non-export edition so it's a tad cheaper from the website.

NetEntity Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Damn, I was really interested at first, but then I found out who the developer is. Should've done my research... Well, one more Vita game off the list, then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xPolydeucesx Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 First two, maybe three hours are addicting, then it starts to be boring. Battles are very easy, even on hard difficulty. Except for boss battles, which actually are pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
