Re: All the Lunar Observations

What Lunar 2 cutscenes are on the disk? I'd love to have high-res versions of the intro, the Jean dance, Lucia being captured, and both endings.

Re: GungHo/GameArts survey about porting games to PC

You know what's funny? Everyone wanted Lunar 2 because its the one with the least remakes. But nope, it's Grandia 2 we get. But it's all right for now. I own 2 versions of this game that I have yet to play (Dreamcast, PS2). I want to see why people like the Dreamcast version more. And I want to see...

Re: Unworthy of the Lunar Name Because...

I think the problem with DS' battle sprites is that it looks like they were drawn in a smaller resolution initially, but had their size doubled later on without any adjustments. Granted, they're not the best sprites ever in the first place, but still.

Re: Lunar 2: something got lost from Lunar 1?

I still liked the feel of the world better in TSS, somehow. Part of it was that I didn't like the corrupt religion/dark god atmosphere as much, since it was kind of depressing, and the world felt emptier to me (maybe because there weren't little shrines scattered around). I definitely see all your ...

Re: Are Lunar 1 and 2 (PS1) actually difficult RPGs?

I've felt that the first areas have always been some of the hardest ones. In SSSC, you need to level grind for a bit at the very start of the White Dragon Cave in order to stand a chance against the foes in the later area, while the enemies in the desert at the start of EBC can eat you up if you sla...

Re: The Great Narratological Lunar 2 Project

Re tidbit 2, you may want to get a copy of the Lunar I+II artbook, which shows earlier concept art, including an earlier version of the pendant. (Other examples: Leo and Mauri as centaurs, Lucia with other hair options.) While it certainly went through a design phase, the end result is pretty close...

Re: Release times goodness, and a new time gap begins...

...maybe the Lunar series needs a game in a different genre? An Action RPG might even work out. Though they'd have to put actual effort into it to make it good, and I'm increasingly pessimistic about that.

Re: A weird thought regarding deity in Lunar

My view regarding deity is that "Althena's powers" could, in theory, be transferred to anyone, but it takes a certain type of deity to naturally claim it. In SSSC, it seems it took a bit to prep Ghaleon to actually claim Althena's powers, since Alex stops him right before he transfer's Lun...

Re: I'm glad we aren't getting Lunar 3!

I'm not too interested in a Lunar 3 because Lunar is very much a product of the time it was made in. SSS and EB are heavily based on early 90s anime. The character designs, character personalities, the optimistic plots, and lighthearted humor that make up SSS and EB and are all very early 90s. The p...

Re: Going through EBC now; my thoughts on it so far

I played SSSC first (although I plan to get through TSS one day), but even then, Lucia is simply a much more interesting and stronger character than Luna is. Luna feels like a 2D romantic interest, while Lucia actually has a major conflict and her choices have a significant effect on the world as a ...

Re: All the Lunar character portraits

I've been wanting those too, but the good stuff is probably within the program for the daifugo game. I don't own it myself so I can't verify this, but it seems that as far as the All the Lunar art assets are concerned, the low-hanging fruit has already been plucked. If nothing else, we could isolat...

Going through EBC now; my thoughts on it so far

I'm currently at Serak Palace, and I think it's about time I get my thoughts on the game so far written somewhere. I'm starting off with the main characters, since they're basically the most interesting part of the game. Hiro: I feel he's probably the weakest out of the characters. I like how he act...

All the Lunar character portraits

I found a blog post on Tumblr that pointed out that the card game in All the Lunar has high-res versions of the character portraits seen in EBC and what appear to be EBC-style portraits for the SSSC characters. From what I can tell, it's only limited to the ladies and doesn't have dark Luna, red rob...

Re: Lunar Playthrough Part 1: Burg to Saith

I think it's fun to read deeper into the text of something and find subtle things, like the status of magic in the Lunar universe, but it can be hard because you'll notice enough plotholes to the point where it'll detract from your enjoyment of the series. As I get older, I find that I'm trying to b...

Re: Lunar Playthrough Part 1: Burg to Saith

Ah. My mistake. Looking back at it, Alex's first meeting with Quark is just about Alex becoming the Dragonmaster and the line about Luna seems like it's just meant to be foreshadowing. It was fine in TSS since you have Luna with you in the party for so little time, but SSSC smacks you in the face wi...

Re: Lunar Playthrough Part 1: Burg to Saith

Re Luna's interest to Quark, it's kind of odd that Quark is tentative about knowing her, but is pretty up-front when confirming to Ghaleon who she is. My take is that Quark didn't want Luna getting too suspicious about who she really is. I also think he didn't want to burnen her with the knowledge ...
