Some really interesting Nayuta details.

So..., since it's not related to the Legend of Heroes (sorta), think you and Xseed might be interested to localize it in English?

[Peytral]

Seriously, this looks sooooo much like a Zwei game (mixed with Ys Seven), and nothing at all like any previous Legend of Heroes title.

Hence why it doesn't have the Legend of Heroes name, probably. :)

[Chaosblade]

That would be disappointing if true, if only because I have this weird feeling that if it were titled Zwei III it would probably have a better chance of localization even if it were the same exact game. I guess I just have this mental link between "Kiseki" and "mountains of unlocalizable text." It doesn't really matter though, since it's a PSP game in 2012 anyway.

I still like to think of it as an LoH game. It seems it even has the Poms which were introduced in the Kiseki games. Little white balls of fur are what connect this game to the rest of the series. Heh.

... but since the Poms are from Kiseki, how does that connect it to LoH. :X

[Wyrdwad]

Well, up until now, Kiseki HAS been LoH. Nayuta is the first and only game in the series to drop the LoH moniker.

Also, it's not the name that makes the Kiseki games hard to localize, nor the platform. It really is just the insane amount of text, paired with the interconnectedness of the series as a whole. If my theory is correct, though, there shouldn't be AS much text (though Zwei II still has a hell of a lot of text in it compared to non-Kiseki Falcom titles -- probably as much as any of the LoH Gagharv games!), nor AS much of a connection. So yeah... it has a chance! We'll just have to wait and see how realistic it would be. (:

Falcom sure has a very creative team and a writer who wants to express everything that he works in or he just likes making a big buildup before a boss battle.

[KnightofAncient]

Well, good to hear that there is at least a possibility depending on how the game turns out to be.

Well, if XSEED is willing to release a PSP game I'm interested by the time you'd be have this ready to go gold, I'd be there. Not sure how many people would be there with me though.

And it's not so much the name itself, just the connotations that come with it.

[Wyrdwad]

Well, we could always do something about the name, since translating it to English would be generally recommended.

Honestly, I think "Nayuta," by itself, has a pretty nice ring to it, don't you?
