GR: This aint no Etrian Odyssey. Sometimes, it happens that I play multiple games in a row of a specific genre or style. And it actually can help me to approach a new game, since Ill have a point of comparison. I mean, Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold was a game I had a lot of time to play, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Im still firing it up to keep advancing through dungeons, fighting monsters, getting stronger. Even the story's characters, somewhat-standard archetypes for a dungeon-crawler, were filled with cheeky and personal dialogue that made them feel unique, characters I didnt mind spending so much time with and weren't simple one-dimensional personality stand-ins.

GC: I love it when a game surprises me. I'd known about Dungeon Travelers 2 for a while, but to be perfectly blunt, it looked like it was going to be a cash-in sold on the scantily-clad anime girls in every screenshot. I mean, I knew that it was ostensibly a dungeon crawler, but between the copious amounts of TA dominating pre-release info and the fact that Etrian Odyssey series has had the crawl niche on lockdown for a while, I didn't think it could be a serious contender.

The Xbox One could use some JRPGs, and a solution to the drought could come via backwards compatibility, as mentioned by Xbox Division head Phil Spencer, who would like to see Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon working on the newer console.

Geoff Hanbury: "Home video game systems first hit the markets in the early 70s, with the release of the Magnavox Odyssey in 1972. Developed from Ralph Baers prototypical Brown Box machine, the Odyssey represented a sea-change in technology entertainment. No longer was television a passive entertainment, but it could now be interacted with and involve players."

RPGFan: Erin Fitzgerald is a skilled voice actress who has lent her talents to several anime and video games. Since 1994, she has amassed a prolific list of credits in several cartoons and anime, but the lion's share of her work is in video games. Some of her roles include Agnes (Bravely Default: Flying Fairy), Noire (the Hyperdimension Neptunia series), Quark (Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward), Raquna (Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl), Polka (Eternal Sonata), multiple roles in Dragon's Crown (including Sorceress), and many many more. She is probably most well known among RPGFan readers for taking over the role of Chie Satonaka in Persona 4: The Golden, Persona 4: Arena, and Persona 4: The Anime. We, are therefore, honored and privileged that Erin Fitzgerald took the time out to speak with us about her experiences.

Ninja Theory has pitched Hellblade as independent AAA, and by doing have wedged themselves into an unnecessarily tough, possibly inflexible, position. Whether long-winded introductions are saved with this distillation, it nevertheless invites a much greater level of scrutiny and pressure, the latter of a variety the developer may have been kinder to itself to keep internal. With Heavenly Sword and Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, Ninja Theory established a commitment to character action games with sophisticated facial capture and exuberant cutscene work generally: if the companys creative foundations stabilize on a reliable bedrock, its because they are consistently iterative on these areas. The frustration in being a fan of the studios work is in having to endure a few equally consistent weaknesses whose improvement is mostly static.
