Star Ocean: The Second Story R comments on visual style and how it’s different from HD-2D
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
When Star Ocean: The Second Story R was revealed, some may have thought that the game is using an HD-2D art style like Octopath Traveler and Triangle Strategy. But while the two are similar in some ways, they’re actually different.
Producer and director Yuichiro Kitao clarified things in a recent interview with Famitsu. Kitao explained that the backgrounds “were made with real time 3D, and the characters were drawn with a special shader in a way that really sticks in the player’s memory.”

The Pokemon Company chief operations officer Takato Utsunomiya has again commented on Pokemon designs and Game Freak specifically.
Utsunomiya recently said in an interview that coming up with new ideas on that front “is an area that Game Freak really excels in.” Another aspect of creativity stems from the fact that younger staff are now becoming a part of the company and are “creating new Pokemon or coming up with new ideas for Pokemon”.

[Let’s Talk] Where should Xenoblade go from here?
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
One of the news topics circulating this week is Xenoblade Chronicles series director Tetsuya Takahashi saying that if there’s another entry in the franchise, it would probably be pretty different. In a way that seems like something obvious to mention, but it’s also an interesting point of discussion.
There are many similarities across the Xenoblade games, but plenty of differences as well. Perhaps the most unique of the bunch was Xenoblade Chronicles X, which put a focus more on quests and less of a story plus rideable mechs. For the most part though, the series has been about exploring big worlds, getting wrapped up in the world and story (unless you want to discount X), appreciating the music, and taking on enemies in the real-time action-based battle system.
Having said that, where should Xenoblade go from here? What would you like to see in a theoretical new game? Let us know in the comments.
