White Knight Chronicles: Why You


Recommended Posts

We've been talking about White Knight Chronicles for so long, that it's actually a bit hard for me to believe that it's only 2 weeks from hitting stores. But [checks calendar], that is indeed the case! A few days ago, we held a media event in San Francisco to allow reporters hands-on time with the online portion of the game in a team setting. You can find impressions here, here, here, and many other places as well. I also sat down with US Producer Tsubasa Inaba to talk ask how robust the online feature set is with White Knight Chronicles.

I can't think of another RPG whose online modes (if they even exist!) are so intertwined with the solo campaign, and so I can personally see myself investing a lot of time there in just two weeks. Also, we hope you've been enjoying the tutorial videos ? a third one (featuring a dissection of the character creation options) will be debuting soon.

I'm on the fence on this game. Reviews on Japanese version weren't too great and the online portion had a lot of complaints until a lot of it was patched.

Well this is the "International" edition which will apparently come pre-patched and with extra content. The video on the blog makes it look awesome to me, a mix between Dark Cloud/an MMO/Monster Hunter and a stand up RPG.

I'm guessing one of the Japanese patches was voice support, cause that's def in for International edition.

EU Release isn't till April anyway so I'd need to import, so I'll wait on reviews then decide on importing or not.

That is what I am finding as well. A friend of mine was able to toy with it at a show in Japan last month and mentioned the same. I am holding out for a demo (won't cross my fingers though).
