Holy. Freakin'. Christ. That shit just blows my mind, looks absolutely incredible. It does seem they retained the random generated dungeon thing, although I can't tell if it's just a similar map system.

PS2 is chuggin' along like the little engine that could at this point.
 
Personally, I think they need to change the name, quickly. It sounds like some space shooter. Boy was I surprised when I entered this thread.

Wow, the Aztecs took over Coruscant.

When can we expect a US release for this?

For some reason, it reminds me of Skies of Arcadia on crack. Serious crack.
 
The back grounds look incredible, but the characters don't look they are coordinated right with the scenery.

I agree. I thought it was some Star Wars shoot off from the thread title.
 
Does this game have like two different graphical styles or something? In the first batch of screens it looks like Dragon Quest 8, and in the other it's all smooth
 
Looks like they have learned much since DQ8... this looks nothing short of stunning.

If anyone can put DQ8 screens and this side by side, and compare, I think we will find that Level 5 has jumped another generation...

And oh yeah, DQ8 is already fairly close to no load time, so wouldn't be surprised to see them getting rid of it once and for all.

I think you are referring to this?

I wouldn't be surprised if this pic is from a CG instead of actual gameplay.
 
The CG looks fantastic, but it's just...CG.

I dunno, the in-game looks nice but nothing to brag about IMO. Character models and animation looks on par with Dark Chronicles/Cloud2 but with bigger environments. DQ8 had nicer models and animation I think. Looks like a cool game, but the 3-person real-time action battle system gives me bad .Hack flashbacks.

Now if their first next-gen game is a cell-shaded rpg with models that look as good as those CGs...I'd be a really happy next-gen supporter at that point :)

On second thought, I have to agree with Bebpo here...

I was much fooled by the CG cutscenes in the game... I got confused mainly because the visual styles are fairly similar (both cel-shaded). The in-game graphics aren't really that hot, and is level with DQ8...

And I agree. If next-gen graphics are like those CGs... oh my goodness I simply cannot wait...
 
Looks nice, but seems like a DC2 with other characters/environments to me. Nothing jawdropping. There's also random dungeons which is a show stopper imho. DQ8 looks far better than this, maybe because Toryama did the character design.

Nevertheless, seeing what Level 5 is capable of doing on the PS2 I can't wait to see what True Fantasy Live Online turns out to be on the Xbox 360.
 
I'm withholding comment on the random dungeons till I hear more, if they are random, they look really unrandom.

Especially this shot

In what sense does that look like a dungeon? :P

↓ Blimblim, you rock!
 
I'm not 100% sure the sound is perfectly in sync, let me know if you think it's not good. I finally found a rather easy way to convert flv to avi (after having to use flash mx for doing this, bleh) so I can reencode it again if needed.
 
Is it me, or do some of those settings look uncannily like the ones from FFXII trailers?


Looks absolutely gorgeous though.

Haha. "Far better" is not quantified by the distance between DQVIII and Rogue Galaxy, even if you legitimately thought that RG < DQ8. "Far better" is the difference between Oblivion and Morrowind. But semantics!

In any event, I'm the exact opposite of you. I think Rogue Galaxy looks better than DQ8, in part because the designs are NOT Toriyama! Toriyama's art makes me want to see him arrested. Because it's just that bad, you see! A crime against humanity!

...

Also, THANKS Blimblim. So, so good!
