Lunar Threads

How about a game about the first Dragon Master, ever?

Thankfully, you can always use the internet to advertise something. More people will see it there, anyway. As for trailers, it doesn't cost a dime to post a video on YouTube or most other streaming sites, whereas it would cost money to put it on TV.

At the end of the day, it will be difficult for Lunar to become relevant again while maintaining its identity. Alas, all the other franchises that have survived to this day did it by changing and adjusting as they must over time. Lunar cannot stand still with mere remakes and sequels identical to th...

Well, whether you like it or not, making jump to 3D is going to be necessity if Lunar is going to become big news again. I'd even recommend getting rid of the turn-based combat for Action/RPG gamestyle.

... but that doesnt mean that the game wasn't "good enough". That's not what I said at all. What I'm saying is that a lot of modern gamers do not care about older games. What I mean about overhauling it is enhancing it (not just the graphics, either). I mean changing up the whole game com...

I think those remakes would requite major overhauls before they'd catch the eyes of many new players. Lunar: Silver Star Harmony didn't exactly make a tsunami in the market.

If Lunar's fandom is to grow, the surest bet is a straight up a new Lunar. The old ones are, well, old even with the occasional updates. As much as I don't want a Lunar 3, it is the best shot this series has of surviving.

I will once Arm has taken back his thinly veiled claim that Watermelon is is SO much better than all the indie developers that made the games I listed because of the antiquated hardware they chose to work with.

About the 8 bits story for the super nes, it was a joke by Fonzie, the game main creator. He's a sega fanboy so he wanted to put that. I'm not the decision maker for this kind of things. Yeah, I don't buy that it was just a joke. Not for a single solitary second. More like a Take That against the w...

They're indie games. Exactly how many of them are going to be consoles, honestly? They're all PC games. A small handful might be available for consoles as well, but these are all meant to be played on the screen-and-keyboard devices we're conversing through. Final Fantasy IV got all that attention b...

I just told you that there are hundreds, if not thousands or even millions of homebrew games for these old systems. This is nothing special and most of these homebrews suck. Going through the trouble of either financially securing a working Megadrive or tracking one down is more than Pier Solar is w...

I'm just returning the favor to Arm. If you don't want me to go all Summer Breeze on this, then you all need to quit pressing me on the issue. It is NOT noteworthy for carts of out-of-use systems to be made and it is not a great accomplish to be porte to more modern systems. Sold well=/=good. Incred...

Any new thoughts now that we have trailers and production photos?

I have a tumblr, but I don't tend to update that much. The site's crazy social justice warriors scare me.

To lunar raptor: I'm not the game designer but the artist who handled the characters and cutscene artworks as well as the opening animation. So I'm not directly involved with the gameplay decisions. If you think this game is terrible, you must not have played some more obscure rpgs back then like H...

No, I would say this is an obectively terrible game. One that is, for reasons that baffle me, getting more attention than it deserves. There are far superior games out there being ignored while this crap gets an HD rerelease? Seriously, what the hell?!

I tried to find positives. There are just none to be had.

I never said anything about assuming his rating. In any case, I shouldn't HAVE to feel especially patient to give ANY game a go. If I have to have more patience to get through Pier Solar than I'd allow myself for any other 16-Bit era game, then that's just bad programming.

Derek Heemsbergen sounds like he didn't have to pay an exuberant amount of money for a sluggish pitiful excuse of a game like Codie and I did. I'll be sticking with Codie's review, thank you. Why even play this game when you can play the games it supposedly is a homage to? They're better paced, bett...
