Yes they did, they unboxed the 25th Anniversary Pack and then showed a lot of gameplay. There was tons of Ys 4 music. They also finally acknowledged the game as a remake of Ys 4, publicly, for the first time.

Gameplay looks so good!
Damn right about that! All I need is a localization announcement with release date and I will buy a Vita right now. I mean, literally, right now.
The Ys series is and always has been pretty niche.

I thought Sea of Trees was the unofficial translation sites used before Falcom revealed the official romanization to be "Foliage Ocean." I didn't think it was ever official or anything but it would hardly be the first time I've been wrong.
Either way, the impression I've gotten is that XSEED will probably tweak the title if they localize it.

Thanks. Whoa, they finally acknowledged Ys 4 in some way, even with the music! So there's music from Ys 4 in-game and arranged and everything? Hoping the gameplay's better than Ys 7. Flash Guard and Flash Move aren't to my liking. But they've added aerials... and I like aerials... hmmm...
This game has boss rush too, I think.
I hope the anniversary pack is worth it. Nayuta no Kiseki's certainly felt like it was worth the price.
樹海 is a pretty ordinary Japanese word for a jungle, and the characters literally mean "tree" and "sea".
You can call a desert a "Sandsea" (as in FF12); a "tree-sea" feels like something Beowulf's comrades would have spotted on shore from one of their boats.
I actually wish Square would return to their clinical naming conventions.
Their newer breed of bat-shit garbled stupidity hurts.

It's only their titles (decided by marketers) that are nuts; their naming conventions within games (decided by translators) are excellent
Yes, I was only talking about game titles, for the most part.
this past year the franchise has gotten more shallow anime fans following it than ever before. falcom and ys is slowly turning to shit. i am happy to be proved wrong with my pre-order, but the music will probably try to ape the kiseki series too much with it's poppy violin crap, just to cater to the awful fans of kiseki and terribly generic anime in general.
falcom had a good run. rip.
Okay.
adol's new design is proof enough.
You're in the presence of a Kiseki fan. Are you sure you want to talk to me? You might catch some sort of anime-related disease.
no, in fact, i don't like you one bit.
if this game lacks the testosterone (like all things nowadays) and guitars of the previous games, and instead full of "UGUU~ why don't you love meeeee" shit, i'm gonna puke. that's all because of the new fans, they love stupid fluff.
so yes, it's not really "niche" anymore, and that's the problem.
Yes, only new fans like Kiseki. Someone like me, who's been playing Falcom's games since Xanadu couldn't possibly like any of their recent output, right?
This testosterone thing seems pretty imagined. Falcom's games have always been anime-inspired.

i hope you're wrong. the designs aren't the best, but i wouldn't go that far just yet.
Well, the game certainly has a... different look from the previous Ys.

I'd expect this shit from an Atelier, not Ys.

it was anime, but different from today's, where everything has to be cute.
of course i hope so too. very much looking forward to it still, but i'm a little worried because falcom's somewhat not what they used to be, and things do come to an end..
Umm.. Ys has always been a shallow anime JRPG, as far as story & style goes. Absolutely nothing has changed.
And the Kiseki games are some of the best written JRPGs. Hardly "UGUUUU~", have you actually even PLAYED the games? Doesn't really sound like it, at all.

Hopefully by the time XSEED localizes this, I'll have a Vita to buy it for.
You seem fun.

Not cute? Got it.
Sudden urge to play Popful Mail again.
Stop being weird and elitist. Ys gaining more fans is a good thing.

Oy, blixa, thanks for the laughs. I needed that today. Things not being manly enough gave me a chuckle.
I don't like Adol's new design at all either (nor do I like the animated stuff they showed in a few trailers because the animation is pretty stiff), but c'mon... Falcom has always taken some stuff from anime and manga in character designs, as Aeana pointed out.
The Kiseki games aren't dripping in kawaii uguu shit either, not from the ones I've played. The later Kiseki games get better with regards to the soundtracks. And hey, I prefer the PC-88/PCE stuff more than the current arrangements in Oath of Felghana and stuff, but they're still pretty decent and have a lot of stylistic touches. And they still knock it out of the park with their arranged albums. The acoustic album that came with Nayuta was pretty good.

not in gameplay. ys for me was always a rocking fast-paced soundtrack with awesome fast gameplay.
now i get seven with awful dialogue and poppy music.
not a fan of that, personally.
you are taking it too literally.
Yup, nothing's like in the glory days anymore.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Jesus fucking Christ, you guys :-/
lol, not at all. when things gain popularity = they turn awful.
or the other way around, by turning awful, they gain more fans.
i don't know which is the case here, or if it will be.. yet.
I don't even know what the fuck are you talking about.
It will increase your vocab skill though. I didn't know what 'foliage' was before this.
yes, you do. the question is whether you agree or not.
stop pretending to not "understand".
anyway, no need to turn this topic worse.
see ya'll at the release (unless it truly does suck)

Then what do you mean? The Kiseki games are far from perfect. But in terms of being modern JRPGs, there's far more political intrigue in a single chapter of Ao no Kiseki than there is in the entirety of Final Fantasy XII. What do you think these games are?
"I hate anything that gains popularity."

This thread is hilarious.
Wait, blixa, I was being entertained.
That, uh, that certainly wasn't what I expected when I came back in here. Yeesh. I didn't like some of the stuff Ys Seven brought to the series (ex: flash guard, party system, lack of platforming, etc.), but man. That entire thing was basically "stop liking the things I don't like!" in a nutshell. @___@

You've never heard the word foliage before?
Assuming English is your native language..
Something something hipster something
No. I don't. YS 7 was the best YS in gameplay wise and I played every YS ever released since MSX except megadrive version. So don't even pretend that you are the only one who are hardcore YS fan.
ew, no. what an insult.
[couldn't resist..]
didn't even write anything close to that.
maybe you were right, you don't understand what's being read.
Download for this game is around 760MB. This worries me.
YS seven had severe downgrade when it came to music quality because of size limitation. (Come to think of it it didn't even use full 1.2GB of UMD capacity)
Falcom you better not decrease sound quality in this game. BETTER NOT.
