New gameplay trailers. Second one includes voices/sfx and background music. (Dreamenddischarger!)
I am really hyped for this. I love Umineko, and getting to actually play as Battler in a fighting game is beyond awesome.

Looking at some of the screenshots on the site, and the background on the main page, it looks like characters sit down in the background and idle in some specific stages when you aren't playing as them. (Battler, Beatrice, one of the Siestas, and other characters who aren't confirmed as playable yet.)

There's also the meta-field, which you can initiate as some form of burst/heat? Some specials can only be used there.

Random screenshots from the character pages:

Yay, someone other than me that cares. Good to hear Dreamend Discharger, now I REALLY hope they get Dread of the Grave - More Fear- in there.

I can't remember whether I was reading it on /jp/ or the Umineko forums from Witch Hunt, but there was a comment about using character-related themes and maybe some stage themes.

Imagine, if George is announced and we get Victima propiciatoria for his theme.
Otherwise I'm hoping for goldenslaughterer, worldenddominator, mortal stampede, Dread of the Grave, and システム零 (Battler's theme in Episode 4's Tea Party with the Star Trek quotes.)

Finally. A good fighting game for a change. One worth playing that isn't Touhou based.

Not that I'm tired of Touhou, that is impossible. But this is a pleasant surprise. Something that may lead to future awesome.

Have you tried Melty Blood? It's a good fighting game and it's not Touhou based.
Guilty Gear too, but the bosses are cheaters.

Am an old vet Melty Blood player, actually.

Guilty Gear is also good. I'm more speaking of recent. I know Blaz Blue is supposed to be good and all, but I don't know much about it. *shrugs* Maybe one day I'll pick it up. But this, this catches my interest.

Blazblue is quite fun, if you liked Guilty I don't see why you wouldn't like it unless it not being as fast bothered you too much. I'll also take this chance to recommend KoF (hey, I'm the biggest fanboy of that here =P) and pretty much any of the SNK fighting games on XBLA right now (the netcode sucks for them except Neogeo Battle Colosseum though, but they're all great in gameplay).

Oh yeah, and since this is confirmed to be getting netplay I'll be sure to meet you guys online and kick your asses with Bronove and whoever I choose for a partner :P

Arcana Heart 3 is one of the most solid, in-depth and balanced fighters you may ever play, if you have no problem with its...."aesthetics". (And given how you already admit to loving Touhou? Some how, I don't think that will be a problem...) 8D

Any way, what probably impresses me more is that this another of them Doujin fighters that ACTUALLY tries to do more along the lines of its own thing, and not just be yet another one citing from the book that Guilty Gear and Melty Blood wrote practically a decade ago. No air-dashing in sight, which actually means going back to more ground-focused combat, instead of IADs being a part of the range game.

So far, I'm impressed. Ideally, this could be a whole new player to the field that sets a new standard for Doujin fighting games, like how Melty Blood did so almost a decade ago. And like MB, I'm hoping that this game becomes a Dark Horse that can eventually be playing with "the big boys" in the arcades.  owob

Fun with the Meta World
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0rGdGFQLLw[/youtube]

And quoting myself about the game's system

Quote
General stuff
-Game uses 3 attack buttons, one Touch button, and an Appeal button (seems to be a taunt).
-Doing an Appeal slightly recovers HP.
-There are 3 lifebars and no second round, so if you get KO'd that's it.
-Press all attack buttons to activate the metaworld.
-You can high jump, dash cancel, tech throws, and tech your falls.

Touch
-Switches characters and reduces your Break Gauge and stun.
-There are 5 kinds of Touching.
-Normal Touch: The active character taunts and switches with his/her partner. Activates the ability of the character that tagged out and costs no SP.
-Attack Touch: Touch during an attack, and your partner comes in with an attack to continue attacking. No SP needed.
-Guard Touch: Touch while guarding to switch characters while blocking. Uses 1 SP.
-Damage Touch: Touch while getting hit to break the combo, send the opponent flying back to the other side of the screen and switch characters. Uses 2 SP.
-Assault Touch: Qcf+Touch to do an invincible "tackle" that switches characters and knocks down the opponent. Uses 2 SP.

Meta World (if any of the names sound weird blame Google)
-As said before, it's activated by pressing all attack buttons.
-Activates both of your characters' abilities and allows you to use your meta special for no cost while it's active.
-Meta Declaration: Uses 1 SP and requires the Meta Gauge to glow red.
-Meta Return: Used after a declaration, uses 2 SP and depletes the opponents Meta Gauge.
-Meta Redeploy: Used after a return to activate the meta world again, uses 2 SP and reduces your Meta Gauge by 25% of what it originally was.
-Meta Surrebutal: Used after a redeploy, uses 3 SP to deplete the Meta Gauge again.
-Meta Forcing: Used after a surrebutal, uses 2 SP to activate the meta world again and reduces your Meta Gauge by 50% of what it originally was.

Character Abilities
-Activated for a limited time with a Normal Touch or with the Meta World.
-Ushiromiya Battler: "Resurrection", slightly recovers HP over time.
-Beatrice: "Infinity SP", it's pretty much what it sounds like.
-Ushiromiya Ange: "Stun Boost", increases the stun of your attacks.
-Lucifer: "Attack Touch" use Attack Touches without consuming your Touch Gauge.
-Shannon: "Auto Guard", exactly what it says.
-Kanon: "Silent Attack", reduces the SP your opponent gets from your attacks.
-Virgilia: "Brimful", increases the SP of both of your characters.
-Ronove: "Counter Boost", increases the damage of counter hits.
-Eva Beatrice: "Berserk", increases your attack power.
-Siesta/Chiester 410: "Break Boost", increases guard break damage.



Other than the usual basic stuff I think that's pretty much it.

The game is out 8)

And since we're talking about Umineko, Jesus, the ep8 spoilers are pretty crazy >__<

I'm trying my best to avoid spoilers for Episode 8... I'm still reading 7 after all.

I've been playing Ougon Musou Kyoku the past couple of days and it's pretty fun. It's a solid fighter despite the lack of diverse moves for each character.
I think it would be great if it makes the jump to Arcade or atleast gets a few more iterations in the future.

Oh, and hopefully patches will add in a certain character whose sprites/data were found but not completed.

So this game (translated to Golden Fantasia X) has been out on 360 for a few days now, and there's a free Demo available on Japanese Live service. ^^;

Playable Demo characters are Beatrice, Ange Ushiromiya, Luficer, and Battler Ushiromiya.

Yeah, I wanted to import it (if it was even region free that is), but at $90, [tornado fang] that, I'll just wait for OMK2 to play George and Rosa, which looked underwhelming one way or another anyways.

The cheapest I could find is 5000yen ($65) on Yahoo auctions.

6800yen ($88) on amiami.

I just checked, and it's not region free anyways, so I have no reason to spend any amount of money on it.

A shitty visual novel with horrible plot written by a hack.
It's basically about witches killing things, and a guy who refuses to acknowledge their existence plus CHESSBOARDS.
The only thing it has going for it is the soundtrack, I mean G-DAMN. That's some fine pieces of music, if I ever heard some.

Also, this fighting game is atrocious. If I didn't mention this in the thread already, then here it is.

If you're curious, go read it yourself and form your own opinion. While I don't really agree with him, he is right when he says that at least the soundtrack itself validates its existence.

Sorry, I couldn't resist it, I got the game on 360, for a cheap 3000yen.

The achievements are easy too, according to the TrueAchievements score on the site.

Most of them are "Clear Arcade Mode with dat character", many of them too, not just one.

Others are performing finishing moves, combo moves, and the typical nightmarish 10 ranked wins in a row.

Posted on: January 21, 2012, 22:53:40
So I went back to this game after like a whole year of not touching it (lol), and did all the Meta Finishes with the characters, and I'm playing through the Arcade Mode unlocking all endings in the process. The Online section will be tough I think. ^^;

I must've had a one track mind here, because my mains hasn't changed even today... XD

I'll pick Shannon and Lucifer. :3

And casually playing the game for a while, Battler is so much fun to use, and so many powerful fist and beam attacks. >0<
