Oh. Well that’s just interesting. I don’t know if it’s lucky or unlucky timing that that the SMRPG remake was announced around this same time
If this game had come out literally any other time, it may have had a shot; but now it is providing the uphill battle from hell 😰
Yeah no kidding. I’ll check out the demo because I love SMRPG in everything that it is. If this game can replicate that feeling while still being its own thing, I’ll buy it afterwards
I will definitely consider purchasing it, but it’ll be a while: between Trails of Zero and the upcoming Remake, I don’t wanna get burnout
*RPG burnout
ANOTHER one? Jeez, how many release windows does this game have?
A game inspired by Super Mario RPG, releasing around the same time as Mario RPG…
Dang the bad luck, am I right?
you can imagine the creator’s surprise when he found out the game he drew inspiration from is being remade and released around the same time his game will lol
That must be a very complicated mix of emotions right there 😹
Though it won’t be for a while—I don’t want to get burned out between Trails of poly track and the impending Remake—I will absolutely think about buying it.
