To me thats like saying Zelda on the 3DO isnthe high of the series, thats how crazy you Origin shills sound to me.
I am not joking. Then again Seven was the only Ys game I truly liked so /shrug
It was also my first if that matters.
Origin is good, but Oath to me was completely lame. VII is still the one I enjoyed the most, thus best Ys as far as I'm concerned.
Well, I think the more apt question to ask would be, what is it that you like about it better than the other games? (asking for the fans of Origin).
Gameplay mostly, with the party based combat, plus the pretty good art and the little more emphasis on the story, compared to the other games in the series (which is something many long time fans said they didn't like about VII in the OT for the game) are what I like VII more over the rest.
Origin is definitely my close second (because I still haven't started Memories of Celceta) thanks to its gameplay. Oath didn't do much for me so it's really low on my list, though still towering over Ys I and II.
Nah..your taste is fine. Seven is definitely the best in the series. The moment
when they strip Adol half naked and force him to fight a boss alone using a wooden sword was the best.
Superb gameplay. Some of the best boss fights in gaming. The story isn't padded as hell, something the series was known for before Seven.

Since it was published by Nintendo in Japan....
....yeah it'll be a cold day in hell when that happens. Sorry.
Yeah, Nintendo owns the game. It doesn't own the IP, though, so there's always next time.

So besides it kinda being shitty that XSeed doesn't get to work on Ys, are people not fans of NISA translation quality? I haven't played too many of their games.
I'm really curious about this as well. Disgaea is their only series I'm really familiar with and the translation/dub quality seems good there. It's a bummer for XSEED but having both Tokyo Xanadu and Ys VIII on Steam is just too good of a trade off for me to stay upset for them. As long as NISA makes an effort to keep their translation consistent with the existing games then it's fine by me.

I bought Nioh on PS4. If it ever comes to PC I will buy it for $1.
Visa Checkout @ Best Buy got me good.

Psycho-Pass had some mistranslation errors that I think were patched, Operation Abyss had some real bad translation quality (some paragraphs didnt make sense, some text was still in japanese, etc.), Danganronpa Another episode had some really small translation errors but was still pretty good, Disgaea had some with the DLC and maybe a couple in the main game.
They are typically pretty good though, a vast improvement from the Ar Tonelico 2 and Rhapsody DS days where both were just terrible localization wise (extremely odd grammar, missing words and had bugs that weren't even in the original Japanese version).
I think it was just Tokyo Tattoo Girls (http://gematsu.com/2017/02/tokyo-tattoo-girls-ps-vita-pc-coming-west-summer) and the release dates of games that were already announced to be coming to steam (Psycho-Pass(April 27), Birthdays:the beginning(May 9), Cladun Returns(June 6), Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Dispair Girls(June 27), Operation Abyss(March 27), and Operation Babel(May 16)).
Also Danganronpa got a release date (September 26) which will most likely be the Steam date as well when Spike Chunsoft annoounces the game for steam.

My man. good luck in college
I just started my 3rd Dark Souls playthrough so hey maybe I finish this time. Amidst that, I've been juggling hella games. I really need to strap down and finish one. Im probably about a third way into the newest Deus Ex and its great but I just lose motivation. Especially when Im exhausted from work

Mostly just release dates for stuff we already knew was coming.
Assuming both Danganronpa games are same dates for Steam, just not mentioned because NISA.
I dont get it. He is very punchable but he's just the host of the stream, what does he have to do with the game?

I was actually showing the clip of him mispronouncing the "Ys" name. Nothing major but I thought it was a bang up start of NISA handling the Ys series. Heh.
NISA has never been known for good translation quality (though over time they obviously improved). Their qualities have always been dual audio and releasing the niche JRPG games that others didn't.
I don't dislike them though, but if I had to pick a localization team for Ys/Xanadu, I'd pick XSEED over NISA/Aksys every time.
Was playing Nioh, but it's pretty repetitive, and not all that exciting, so I'm going to give it a rest for awhile. Will start Until Dawn tonight, and continue my just-started game of Witcher 3 this afternoon.
Ys 8 looked great in that short clip btw, is this the first modern and non-overhead Ys game? I know 7 was on psp but have there been like any spin offs or something or the series just went into a hiatus?

I been eyeing Ni-Oh and idk why. Im not the biggest DS fan but my roommate just got a ps4 pro so Im trying to figure out something worthwhile for the console.
Enjoy TW3. It's legitimately as great as everyone says. Just dont get burnt out on it. I loved it but I just wanted to get it over with on my last couple hours.

Sounds like he's saying "Ys Eight" to me.

Why's everyone gotta be a wiseguy about how to say Ys.
Played Ys Celceta? It's a lot like Ys Seven.
It also had some weird spinoff RTS on DS called Ys Strategy and an MMO which didn't last very long.

Store pages for Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana and Tokyo Tattoo Girls are up.
That's because that's exactly what he's saying lol. I mean, come on. "Ees-say" doesn't even make sense as a mispronunciation.
On another note, holy shit how fucking annoying is it that Atelier doesn't lose input focus when alt-tabbed? Ugh, I'm typing and just hearing the game going apeshit in menus. I just alt-tabbed back in and I somehow ended up in another section of the town and was in my item container about to discard some shit. It's ridiculous lol.
Ive only played 7 on Vita, Origin on pc and a little bit of Oath.
Ys Celceta on Vita is a lot like Ys Seven. It's also got a chinese PC port like Seven but somebody actually inserted the translation into it so you can play it on PC. But it's probably better on Vita as it is because the port is lacking.

Ohh good stuff. Hadn't seen much gameplay footage. The CEO of Falcom gives an introduction in the video. Nice to see him acknowledging Steam. Love the newfound interest in PC.
