Okay, got a little list for you.
- 28'th February is still the planned release time.
- We gonna have some new monsters, just because we can
- Demo will probably have more H-scenes than all of Part 2
- There will be 6 parts in total
And now, due to popular demand, an answer to a question I probably should've cleared out like a year ago. There will NOT be a dual-wield scene with both Angel Halos. Why? Because it's entirely unnecessary. Even without mentioning how impractical and impossible dual-wielding swords is, it's such a cheap way to make the character look 'cool'. Dual wielding swords is right over there in a pile of completely overdone bad writer cliches, together with a secret dark side, differently colored eyes and magical katanas. Come on, we are better than that.

are the new monsters part of the original game? or are u making your own new monsters? and will they be recruit-able as well?
ReplyDeleteNaw, new monsters are just MGE ones with H-CG made for them. No relation to MGE versions, though, just the images of them.
DeleteAnd no, you can't recruit them. The whole point of NG+ to make a new spin on the old characters, not to introduce new ones. They'll be just average new fights. We're adding them just to make some places less barren, and look more lively. None of them will hold any significant place in the plot.
ah! thanks for clearing that up! :D looking forward to it :D
Deletehmm ok but dual swords for 9 fold rakasha like lucifina would have been a nice touch
ReplyDeleteUnless you will cut yourself on the spot.
DeleteSo is there any news on Spirit routes and how they affect the story, or is that one of those "You'll see" things. If that were the case, I'd understand.
ReplyDeleteMainly the thing with Dual Wielding "effectively", is that the character would be able to stay in motion and be quick enough to dodge the attacks while they're on the move (e.g. Captain Levi in Attack on Titan, and to a lesser extent, all of the titan killers) However, someone like Kirito, of SAO (in)fame, would be an example of dual wielding being done in a poor way. The only way you could effectively work dual wielding in is if you had Slyph have some super ability in her route that allowed you to basically fly at speeds unseen, fast enough that the opponent couldn't react. And even then, it isn't really that much more effective than solo wielding.
Basically, you're right. Dual Wielding can't be used very effectively in the context of ordinary combat. Sure, you could make it work in this verse, but it's be more programming, more artwork, more effort to write it in, and quite frankly, I'd see more interesting plans for the second Angel Halo being in if you could convince your heroine to use it when they help you in battle to make sure they don't kill any monsters while they're helping you. Like, say, asking Granberia to switch out her buster sword for the second Angel Halo and, because she doesn't necessarily want to hurt any monsters, she does.
Or any of them really. Tamamo used it against Orochi. Who ever ends up helping you could be the one who uses it so that if they get the finishing blow, it doesn't kill the monster.
Of course, you could also just have them knock the monster out. Or have the monster's HP run out and some flavor text that says they let Luka get the finishing blow in. Really, all any of those would take were some extra text.
Or the second Angel Halo could have no purpose other than verifying Luka's story. I dunno.
You know, he's probably going to put in an easter egg about all this dual wielding talk right?
DeleteLuka: Hey... If there are two Angel Halos... Doesn't that mean I can use them both and do double the damage?!
DeleteAlice: ...
Salamander: ...
Other Monsters: ...
Luka: ... What?
Alice: ... Idiot.
Luka: What?
Maybe have Salamander or Granberia (if she's there) explain why Dual Wielding is a bad idea. Say that to make it effective, you'd have to move at speeds that are just not practical. The amount of energy you'd need to use makes it impractical to use in combat.
Granberia's sword is actually called "Ares". Look at the main menu when your briefly control her to fight Arc-En-Ciel to verify this. :) But yeah, although I am a bit disappointed dual-wielding won't be done I am at least relieved to hear the question put to rest at least. ^^ Thanks again for an awesome update as always! :3
Delete*when you
DeleteAwesome work guys! Six parts?! That's a lot of parts! Thanks for all your hard work!
ReplyDeleteTake a look at the Angel Halo and you'll see Luka make a really good job for not cutting himself with that freak sword for his entire journey. Seriously, why somebody think using two swords is better than one?
ReplyDeleteIt would be better if Alice will give that another Angel Halo to Grandberia or Tamamo or use it herself.
Alright, dual wielding may be out, but I just thought of something much better. So imagine you're in an epic battle against the forces of Ilias taking on some uber boss like Black Alice fused with Eden or some shit.
ReplyDeleteThis music is playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef6-eiHODWI
Your pumped, but things aren't looking so good. The boss has the upper hand - until you pull out one of these: http://i.imgur.com/QV5wvjC.png
What the hell is that? Why, that's two angel halos welded together with the hero's proof to make one double bladed masterpiece. The boss promptly shits itself and dies. What do you think?
ha ha ha Not bad, although I prefer dual-wielding this is also nice. :D
DeleteNah, that wouldn't be practical either.

I guess Sword-Chucks are also out of the question?
DeleteIt ain't about practicality, it's all about versatility.

That's the coolest thing I've ever seen.
DeleteI made it even better for you.

Go play Cao Pi in Dynasty Warriors will delight you. But no. Nor for Luka.
DeleteI know this will most likely fall on deaf ears or, most likely, be spurned out by dislikes and whatnot, but I feel that MGQ NG+ deserves to give Promestein and her "child-prodigy" Laplace a chance for redemption. Vashtor (from Record of Agarest War), like Promestein, committed a great many atrocities in service to his "Master" without remorse, but he was redeemed in the Fifth Generation and was then able to repent for his past sins/crimes of those he laid waste to ( http://i.imgur.com/19OSxuH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Ouz4ttJ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/33uSHH5.jpg http://i.imgur.com/aEb9p1t.jpg http://i.imgur.com/uZmxa92.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Ey7Ab8d.jpg ) in the past. I feel that both Promestein and Laplace deserve a chance for redemption in MGQ NG+, I truly do... :) Please take this into account for later thoughts MGQ NG+ if you won't do this then at least have a scene that shows that it might've been so, please, you have NO idea how happy this would make me if this were to come true since, laugh at me all you want, but I actually cried a little when I took down Laplace and Promestein in MGQ, really... :'(
ReplyDeleteFor Laplace I agree strongly bt Doc not as much but it makes sense.
ReplyDeleteAt least someone agrees with me for Laplace, Promestein also deserves a chance of course, especially when she briefly reflects on the times before she was mistreated so horribly like that for something that actually was not a sin at all, just in the eyes of that accursed selfish, contradictive, overly-ambitious goddess-bitch of course... >_> I feel so sorry for both of them, I truly do... T_T
DeleteFor Promestein and Laplace I mean of course, don't have a single inch of care for that stupid Goddess-bitch, I really don't... -_- In fact, i'm looking GREATLY forward to bringing the pain to said bitch after getting through all her lieutenants of her various Army of Genocide and then going after the ring-leader herself after getting through her Second-in-Command Eden. :P
DeleteYou should also know that Illias has suffered for millions of years of lonelyness, not that it justifies her actions, but the thing is that she has suffered too.
Deleteha ha ha So did the Dark Gods/Goddesses of Agarest (Mercury: http://i.imgur.com/0fbjKW1.jpg http://i.imgur.com/IIGqTFH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/gu3evPg.jpg Mobius: *this one actually deserved to die, period, the prick had it coming eons away as he IS one of the main causes for the three wars before the True Ending of Agarest happened after all* http://i.imgur.com/ozelQn3.jpg http://i.imgur.com/bY9zk1j.jpg http://i.imgur.com/GZ6RYVW.jpg http://i.imgur.com/g456L1z.jpg Deeth: *this bitch deserves nothing but hatred, she cares nothing of the well-being of mortals whatsover, period. Quite the opposite in fact... she wanted to "play" with them, seeing if they could endure an eternity of ever-lasting pain without cease in her own ways and as such you can see why she'd make such a lovely sister-goddess to little Ms. Genocide* http://i.imgur.com/iwfb8rR.jpg http://i.imgur.com/MyBmANj.jpg http://i.imgur.com/JI6r5SJ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/3VpvywB.jpg http://i.imgur.com/YOjKphN.jpg Nemesis: *the only one I felt truly sorry for, she had it in herself for true redemption after all and even then she gladly accepted her fate and even welcomed the fact of a Godless World being born all the while inwardly loving her "Children" deeply...* http://i.imgur.com/MUV0OCl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/3H8wAzw.jpg http://i.imgur.com/qiST4W7.jpg http://i.imgur.com/fspaTV2.jpg Mayastia: http://i.imgur.com/utjUrbT.jpg http://i.imgur.com/k4ILvWZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/mnPjFRi.jpg http://i.imgur.com/uCxPEq4.jpg http://i.imgur.com/FqCJwRl.jpg Chaos: *"ring-leader" of the Six Dark Gods/Goddesses of Agarest* http://i.imgur.com/cnzsSJi.jpg http://i.imgur.com/zdJvi92.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LzrKIUQ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/b4Kh1oR.jpg http://i.imgur.com/oHv1IM9.jpg http://i.imgur.com/w9WoHK9.jpg http://i.imgur.com/uTe5AhG.jpg ) and you don't see them crying. XD lol Though, the Gods/Goddesses of Light did in fact cry, not just for the loss of life, but also to revive that which was lost, if there's anyone who suffered with good intentions from the beginning to the bitter end, it's them, unlike Ilias which was nothing but a web of deceit for her "ultimate goal"... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzEoOA9SvpA
DeleteOrcone, buddy, take it down a notch. It's cool that you like Agarest so much, but there's no need to write down huge posts with a million picture links like this. Let's keep the NG+ comment section for NG+, cmon.
Deleteha ha ha I know, I know, just saying that Ilias ain't alone in her little "suffering" and other Gods/Goddesses weren't such pansies like she was in her bout of "loneliness" compared to her is all. :P She wasn't the only God/Goddess to suffer such a similar fate and yet the Dark Gods/Goddesses didn't whine about it like she did, that's all. ^^;
DeleteI see your point but there were many gods and goddesses of both light and darkness so the could keep each other in check and none of them were alone from beginning to the end, the always had someone else but illias was alone and could only talk to her self plus she was never sealed or more like no one could seal.
DeleteAll six Dark Gods/Goddesses were seperated and contained in each of their respective pillars so, in a way yes, they were alone for quite a long while due to that.
