XboxEra Community Hangout |OT6| New Year, Same Three Topics

Love the legend of heroes. Planning to play Cold steel 3 and 4 this summer so the wait for trails of genesis is less long. Can’t be bothered with translation sheets though. Will wait when NISA’s lazy ass finally translates Kuro.

Umm what are they releasing? Is this a in house anime joke or something. There releasing a translation spreadsheet?

Atlanta United Yes

And Sorry USA but I support Mexico Team :moyai:

I streamed a hidden VR gem called Asgard’s Wrath today (might want to jump ahead as I had some tech issues at first) and then some Crackdown 3 which is a stupidly fun game (both on PC at ultra). More crackdown 3 tonight or tomorrow!

It’s a PS4 only game so a translation hack is impossible. Basically, this is a program that overlays a translation on top of the game as you stream it from your PS4 to your PC.

And since I’m talking about Falcom now, Stadia is adding Ys IX to their Pro service thing (Stadia PS+/GWG)… Still nothing on Xbox versions of these games :upside_down_face:

Omg the hoops that Xbox fans must go through to play a JRPG

It’s way better now. For the first 4 years of X1 we had 5 new JRPGs.

  • FF Type-0
  • FF 15
  • Strangers of the Sword City
  • Romancing Saga 2
  • Valkyria Revolution

I don’t understand it honestly.

They must have gotten in on the Stadia release deals offering 6 to 7 figures just to release games on the platform. No studio in their right mind would pass up opportunity to bring in millions directly from Google just to port games.

Just beat The Forgotten City and got the Cannon ending, what a wonderful game. Played it entirely through Xcloud and it felt like i was playing it Natively most of the time.

Questions: Why over the past few years are more 3rd party devs switching to unreal? Is it really cheaper to pay engine royalties to epic instead of expanding your own engine?

Its much easier and cheaper to use an engine that is widely known. It also gives you access to a broader pool of talent without having to train them to use your proprietary engine. Sure you have to pay a 5% royalty to epic, but that cost is seen as worth it by most devs, else people wouldnt be swapping to it.

That would be a bigger deal than Activision in Europe lol, would probably turbo charge the brand.

He said “Leakcon 2022”. It seems Henderson could reveal many leaks on all of publishers. Something about Xbox?

:eyes:

Moonfall, what a ridiculous movie.

Just saw it at the cinema theater. Thought it might be nice to slowly get in the mood for Starfield. This ain’t it.

Looks like Bamco really going in since Elden Ring gave them a second look at marketing.

We’ll be doing this weekly with each episode.

Bamco Namco’s market is way better than any company’s market.

At least Xbox’s market is slightly better than Square Enix’s market.
