Purposes for the Year 2017 - Gamers Edition

Post by Juanbro »

I am guessing that the topic's name won't be easy enough to understand, so I'll explain it.

We will comment in this topic what games would you like to play for 2017. Here we can even talk about the games that we started long ago, but have never finished...and we can take this opportunity to finish them as a purpose for 2017.

In my case, I'd like to play:
- All the Shin Megami Tensei mainline games after SMT1: SMT2, SMT3, SMT4 and SMT:Apocalypse.
- When it comes out, play Etrian Odyssey V
- YS: Memories of Celceta
- The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Cold Steel I and II
- At least one iteration of the rest of the YS games after YS I (for my YouTube Channel)
- Shantae: Half-Genie Hero
- Bravely Second

And the games I'd like to finish:
- Shin Megami Tensei I
- The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Second Chapter
- God Eater 2
- Disgaea 4
- Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS
- Etrian Mystery Dungeon
- Bravely Default
- The 7th Dragon III

Of course, I may play other games that I didn't plan, and finish other games that I have forgotten, but those are the one that I'd like to play and finish for 2017.

Hrm... Let's see...

Games I want to play, in no particular order:
-Final Fantasy 13: Lightning Returns
-Tales of Vesperia
-Shin Megami Tensei 3
-Wild Arms 4 (technically I *started* it in 2016, but didn't get far)
-Shadow Hearts 2 and 3 (replay)
-Koudelka (if I can find a copy)
-Probably some Ratchet and Jak games, since I got a bunch of them for Christmas.

Games I want to finish:
-Magical Starsign
-Atelier Iris
(Fewer of these, since once I start a game, I *usually* finish it.)

What? Are both The Legend of Xanadu translations finally finished? Man, if that's true, I need to add them in my "To Play" list ASAP.

According to the thread on pcenginefx, all the game-text related translation stuff is pretty much done (if not 100%), all that's really left is re-dubbing the voice-acted cutscenes:
elmer on December 5 wrote:We've been quiet for a while now, so I thought that I'd let folks know that we're working on polishing up the script for the dub and trying to iron out any inconsistencies between the two games before SamIAm opens up the audition process.

As you can imagine ... it may prove difficult/impossible to ask people to do lots of changes/retakes after we've got their recordings, so it's super-important to try to massage things as-much-as-possible now.

The whole process has been a bit delayed because of my strange fascination with actually playing with the HuC codebase rather than getting on with the things that I'm supposed to be doing. :oops:

But we're still moving forward! :wink:
SamIAm on December 14 wrote: Recently, I've been a bit preoccupied with being barfed on by a tiny human. Lucky for him, he's also the cutest baby in the world. :wink:

Elmer and I exchange PMs about the project basically every day. As we've both said, this dub-thing is going to be like a rocket launch. We have to be confident that everything is as finished as-can-be, fully in place, and that all other conditions look good.

The plus side is, once we do hit the big red button, it will be over quickly. Relatively speaking, anyway.

So it's not out yet, but it should be out some time this year, and I'll be sure to announce it here when it does (and I'll make sure it's in the first patreon poll after its release).

Is that the case for both Legend of Xanadu games? Or is the first one out already?

Both. I think they're planning on releasing both at the same time.

Oh my!!!

Thanks for letting me know. April surely will be a glorious month for me, with Specter of Torment at the next corner, the two Legend of Xanadu and the hype caused by Shadows of Valentia.

Edit: Alright, I misread it. I thought that this month we will be getting the translation released, but it is referring to the website thingy for the dub, right?

At last, the time has come. As of today, we are officially taking auditions for the Legend of Xanadu dub, as a part of the larger Legend of Xanadu fan-translation project.

If you’ve been following the main project thread, you probably don’t need much of an introduction and can head right to the character-list page. You'll find everything you need to know to audition there. For some background on the games, we put together a quick little blurb that you might enjoy reading here.

If you are interested in playing a part, fire away. As far as we’re concerned, the more auditions, the merrier, so please don’t hesitate to try out for anything you think you might be able to handle.

The initial casting period will end May 19th.

Even if you’re absolutely certain that you can’t play a part yourself, you can still do us an enormous favor by passing on the word to anyone in your community who seems like they could. There are literally dozens of roles to fill, and we’re going to have to cast our net as widely as possible in order to get good actors in all of them.

We even made this dorky little intro aimed at non-gamers to help you rope in your friends and family who otherwise would just be confused about what the heck this project is.

The fate of the translation is now in YOUR hands. Let's make this something incredible!

In the meantime, here are some pretty screenshots. and youtube videos of all of the voiced bits in Xanadu 1 and Xanadu 2. :mrgreen:

That sounds interesting! I may even give it a shot at the auditions!

By the way, is there a way to share this post in Facebook? I'll like to share it in a group that may be interested in these news, but I can't find the correct way to share it.
