Quote from: Bespinben on September 08, 2015, 01:33:46 PMI think at least one reason why a game (like GtI) would get such polarized review scores (IGN's 5.5/10 versus Famitsu's 38/40) is related to cultural preferences. Dungeon crawlers in general aren't very popular in the West, but they're all the rage in Japan. Thematic elements could also play a factor. I couldn't help but think that the whole concepts behind things like the Voice of Life or the Bittercold stem from some sort of archetype in Asian folklore (perhaps Yin-Yang?).

I never thought about it that way. I did find the "voice of life" extremely odd and corny, but maybe it isn't in japan.

Bespinben got beat again to this, proving that theoretically even a fat articuno can beat him at getting sheet music out first, since someone made sheet music for one of the dungeon themes from the trailers. I really like the music for the most part, as it seems like a theme of determination

Oh, I'm even more behind the curve than just that. If you follow that guy's stuff on Niconico, he's already finished the Top Menu Theme too as of 3 days ago.

Looking at the Japanese SuperPMD site, it looks like there's going to be ANOTHER NicoNico livestream to show off the game one day prior to release:

I know at this point, most of us don't want any more spoilers than we've already gotten, but if I can just get a peek at the Staff Credits to finally learn who are the composers, I'll be content until the US release.

Finding this bit of info out while undercover at my school, it seems that PSMD will have over 120 dungeons, around double the amount of GTI and Explorers and three times the amount as Rescue Team! Makes me confident about the post game although I dearly hope they aren't rehashes from Explorers to satisfy the nostalgic fans. Even the rescue team dungeons I don't want to see over done, as I prefer new content. Getting excited as it the game is out in only two days in Japan!

Sadly the odds of a special episode for the game at this point are the same odds as an Articuno themed movie being made

(in other news, part one of my PMD retrospective is almost done, and should be out before the JPN release. It almost killed my computer's hard drive due to it being four hours of footage getting edited into one hour of a retrospective but I'm determined to finish it. One hour, reviews for three separate Rescue Team related media, along with history on the games (and my own past due to how important the game was to me personally). Get ready if you can handle my strange voice.

Explorers will be the next episode but it will only cover Time and Darkness and the DVD so it will be MUCH shorter. No manga and not much history in this one, that is saved for part III which covers Sky and Squad.)

Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on September 14, 2015, 11:24:49 AMwhy so much hate for explorers

Honestly while I may have mentioned it briefly before I can't really say the entire reason why. Eternal Memories will cover that but even then I don't think I can quite explain what made it hurt my feelings so much. My biggest guess is being hurt at the many "WHY THE HECK DID YOU NOT DO ANYTHING" situations in the game where the characters act really, really stupid. Especially Officer Magnezone, I hate that guy more than most people hate Chatot. Gameplay is fine, music is fine but the story really drives me nuts for some reason, despite me being in love with it when I was younger. I'm guessing Ys V's story about stopping the collapse of time by going to an ancient hidden land to restore the balance of time before bad guys use it to corrupt the present made me realize that Explorers had quite a few faults due to the characters making that story not as well written.

Oh also PSMD LEAKED ALERT ALERT EVERYONE HIDE IN YOUR SPOILER SHELTER.
