Resonance of Fate

Resonance of Fate Screens Echo Quality
Written Monday, January 18, 2010 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

Those clever chaps what make them Star Ocean games have released some rather lovely screens for their new RPG, Resonance of Fate.

The portentously titled JRPG is on its way from tri-Ace, a developer famed for crafting good, solid role-playing fare. Resonance of Fate should be good, solid role-playing fare then.

SEGA is on publishing duties for when the game launches later this year.

End of Eternity, as it's known in Japan, is slated for January 28th, with a North American release pencilled in for March. An EU date is still to be confirmed at time of writing. Boooo!

You can have a look at the full 26 screens in our gallery.

tri-ace... this means a short game with multiple playthroughs required, in a lame attempt to make the game seem like it's long, like an RPG should be.
I'll never buy another tri-ace game after Infinite Undiscovery. What a joke.

I just hope this game doesn't have insane achievements. RPGs already take 30-80 hours to complete, I don't need to play through them 4 times. K thanks bye.

I've always wanted a JRPG like this game, and the demo certainly made its point (if you can't download the demo I wouldn't recommend looking up videos on YouTube, nobody knows what they're doing. =/)

Might be heresy, but I'll probably be buying this before looking at FF13.

@ #12
So stating my opinion about the development company making the game is trolling? Why is that? Because it is not YOUR opinion?

You 13 year old kids really need to cut the ignorance. Just because someone has a differing opinion from yours, does not make them a troll or wrong. Everyone is entitled to your opinion.

Some fact for you though: Your reply to me IS flaming and trolling, since you've attacked me and said nothing on topic. Keep up the good work.

I sincerely hope this is good. The premise and gunplay mechanics are definitely a welcome change, but tri-ace has indeed been crap for a few years with IU and SO: TLH. Copyright pretty much nailed their design scheme. Perhaps the change in publisher will push them to change their ideas about how an RPG should run as well.

Unfortunately, looking at the translations of the EoE achievements, it looks like two playthroughs and all quests to start. Plus most of the achievements are vague as hell and don't actually say what they require.

Still pre-ordered it though. :D

Probably pick this up as a rental first, then see how it goes from there. There's far too many RPGs this year, and that is in no way a bad thing :)

@#9 Yeah I noticed that date on play.com as well but I have to admit that play are usually never that accurate with their release dates unfortunately.

They've had dead rising 2 coming out next month for a while now for example *facepalm*

Thanks for the info anyways

the achievement should be the same as End of Eternity (which it uploaded on the 14th)since it called that in jap.
tryed the demo on my PS3, but i won't pick it up the day it come out on March, since i will be busy with FF13.

Nice screenshots, I love these types of games so I'll probably get this after some walkthroughs are made because I'll be too busy with FFXIII in March to be playing anything else.

Which region has the demo? I've got UK, US and Japanese accounts set up so I can get any. Well, Japanese isn't quite so easy given I don't read Japanese.

Fuck! That sounded rude as hell... Sorry #33.... Redo please..

You need a Jap account. It's not that hard navigating through the Jap Dashboard. If you've been in and out of the marketplace a lot, then it's easy as hell.

That sounded a LOT better...

I was pleasantly confused by the battle system. After messing with the demo for a bit, I "got" the movement structure, the map system, linking attacks, charging and going apesh*t in midair, and weakspots for the boss. And, yet, I was still very confused. Can't wait to get some English on it.

If it's turn based, I'm hoping it'll turn out better than Final Fantasy 13: the Hallway RPG.
