part ah here's here's the cool thing part ah here's here's the cool thing Above All Else a game offers a different Above All Else a game offers a different Above All Else a game offers a different experience than a movie or a novel so to experience than a movie or a novel so to experience than a movie or a novel so to prevent this from becoming just a prevent this from becoming just a prevent this from becoming just a vehicle for our taale we've gone to vehicle for our taale we've gone to vehicle for our taale we've gone to Great Lengths to flesh out the Great Lengths to flesh out the Great Lengths to flesh out the experience into an exciting fully experience into an exciting fully experience into an exciting fully fledged game and this is what I love fledged game and this is what I love fledged game and this is what I love about video games if a game has balance about video games if a game has balance about video games if a game has balance which this game looks like it does then which this game looks like it does then which this game looks like it does then it's going to be a really exciting it's going to be a really exciting it's going to be a really exciting experience looks like the game play will experience looks like the game play will experience looks like the game play will be a vehicle for our story to get to all be a vehicle for our story to get to all be a vehicle for our story to get to all the good parts and hit all the right the good parts and hit all the right the good parts and hit all the right notes so I'm very excited for this so notes so I'm very excited for this so notes so I'm very excited for this so this is interesting he said the title's this is interesting he said the title's this is interesting he said the title's logo is based off of the concept of a logo is based off of the concept of a logo is based off of the concept of a city's Main Street and I think the a is city's Main Street and I think the a is city's Main Street and I think the a is supposed to be like the center supposed to be like the center supposed to be like the center Hub or like a kind of like a skyscraper Hub or like a kind of like a skyscraper Hub or like a kind of like a skyscraper or something but what I found most or something but what I found most or something but what I found most interesting is you see this kind of like interesting is you see this kind of like interesting is you see this kind of like big monolithic thing in Grand Trad it's big monolithic thing in Grand Trad it's big monolithic thing in Grand Trad it's almost like the a but upside down I almost like the a but upside down I almost like the a but upside down I don't think that has much relevance or don't think that has much relevance or don't think that has much relevance or kind of correlation but I just kind of kind of correlation but I just kind of kind of correlation but I just kind of thought that that was thought that that was thought that that was interesting what makes metaphor interesting what makes metaphor interesting what makes metaphor different from other fantasy RPGs is the different from other fantasy RPGs is the different from other fantasy RPGs is the perspective of their world in which our perspective of their world in which our perspective of their world in which our world is their fantasy so here's haino world is their fantasy so here's haino world is their fantasy so here's haino kind of confirming that our reality our kind of confirming that our reality our kind of confirming that our reality our world of like Earth is the fantasy of world of like Earth is the fantasy of world of like Earth is the fantasy of everyone in this world because this

everyone in this world because this everyone in this world because this image over here with the cars the image over here with the cars the image over here with the cars the skyscrapers the people walking in this skyscrapers the people walking in this skyscrapers the people walking in this just normal Earth in this city is from just normal Earth in this city is from just normal Earth in this city is from the book that the protagonist has in his the book that the protagonist has in his the book that the protagonist has in his possession so that's that's really cool possession so that's that's really cool possession so that's that's really cool I'm trying to kind of theorize how these I'm trying to kind of theorize how these I'm trying to kind of theorize how these two worlds are going to merge and kind two worlds are going to merge and kind two worlds are going to merge and kind of cross over and what the story of cross over and what the story of cross over and what the story implications will be over implications will be over implications will be over there is fantasy limit to the confines there is fantasy limit to the confines there is fantasy limit to the confines of imagination this is interesting you of imagination this is interesting you of imagination this is interesting you see over here we're not naming our see over here we're not naming our see over here we're not naming our protagonist we're naming who shall guide protagonist we're naming who shall guide protagonist we're naming who shall guide the the the protagonist so we're naming our protagonist so we're naming our protagonist so we're naming our character and we're speaking with character and we're speaking with character and we're speaking with someone who might even be from the human someone who might even be from the human someone who might even be from the human world who is this scheming world who is this scheming world who is this scheming man who we're talking to and is kind of man who we're talking to and is kind of man who we're talking to and is kind of setting us on this setting us on this setting us on this path the power of fantasy a power we all path the power of fantasy a power we all path the power of fantasy a power we all possess so this is also interesting the possess so this is also interesting the possess so this is also interesting the game questions the power of fantasy a game questions the power of fantasy a game questions the power of fantasy a power we all possess so if we possess power we all possess so if we possess power we all possess so if we possess something like this if we are sort of something like this if we are sort of something like this if we are sort of the narrator of this story how much the narrator of this story how much the narrator of this story how much agency are we going to have in the story agency are we going to have in the story agency are we going to have in the story of this protagonist and his quest to of this protagonist and his quest to of this protagonist and his quest to become the new king become the new king become the new king of the kingdom of ukia that is a very of the kingdom of ukia that is a very of the kingdom of ukia that is a very curious case about this game and curious case about this game and curious case about this game and something I found very interesting that something I found very interesting that something I found very interesting that we're naming our kind of narrator of the

we're naming our kind of narrator of the we're naming our kind of narrator of the story so are we going to be not only a story so are we going to be not only a story so are we going to be not only a narrator but also sort of a writer of narrator but also sort of a writer of narrator but also sort of a writer of this narrative ourselves and a lot of this narrative ourselves and a lot of this narrative ourselves and a lot of these questions and a lot of these these questions and a lot of these these questions and a lot of these statements that the scheming man and is statements that the scheming man and is statements that the scheming man and is telling us over here it sort of reminds telling us over here it sort of reminds telling us over here it sort of reminds you of what hashino was talking about in you of what hashino was talking about in you of what hashino was talking about in the very first Creator interview for the very first Creator interview for the very first Creator interview for metor re fantasio you guys can watch metor re fantasio you guys can watch metor re fantasio you guys can watch that I'll link it in the description that I'll link it in the description that I'll link it in the description below or I'll put it in the notification below or I'll put it in the notification below or I'll put it in the notification tab and I also made a video on it as tab and I also made a video on it as tab and I also made a video on it as well all right let's move on to some well all right let's move on to some well all right let's move on to some other things so this is starting off the other things so this is starting off the other things so this is starting off the game in the starting area where you're game in the starting area where you're game in the starting area where you're learning some tutorials and of course learning some tutorials and of course learning some tutorials and of course here look new memorandum I think yeah here look new memorandum I think yeah here look new memorandum I think yeah memorandum is your Journal looks to be memorandum is your Journal looks to be memorandum is your Journal looks to be your Journal but I think it's also a your Journal but I think it's also a your Journal but I think it's also a place where you can go back and refer place where you can go back and refer place where you can go back and refer back to tutorials and stuff so that's back to tutorials and stuff so that's back to tutorials and stuff so that's pretty cool so galago can cast specific pretty cool so galago can cast specific pretty cool so galago can cast specific spells I can at least cast my usual spells I can at least cast my usual spells I can at least cast my usual spell for you it's the small Comforts spell for you it's the small Comforts spell for you it's the small Comforts right casts a musical right casts a musical right casts a musical spell the music you hear in game is in spell the music you hear in game is in spell the music you hear in game is in the protagonist's head this is very cool the protagonist's head this is very cool the protagonist's head this is very cool the music you hear in the game is in the the music you hear in the game is in the the music you hear in the game is in the protagonist's head and it's kind of like protagonist's head and it's kind of like protagonist's head and it's kind of like magical music that the fairy puts into magical music that the fairy puts into magical music that the fairy puts into your mind so my question is is this sort your mind so my question is is this sort your mind so my question is is this sort of diagetic music is it going to have of diagetic music is it going to have of diagetic music is it going to have any other impact on the game is it going any other impact on the game is it going any other impact on the game is it going to give us Buffs or would we have to to give us Buffs or would we have to to give us Buffs or would we have to kind of like turn on the music kind of

kind of like turn on the music kind of kind of like turn on the music kind of like a MP3 player and ask hey Galaga like a MP3 player and ask hey Galaga like a MP3 player and ask hey Galaga turn on the music for us put it in our turn on the music for us put it in our turn on the music for us put it in our minds I think that's a pretty unique and minds I think that's a pretty unique and minds I think that's a pretty unique and very cool concept I want to see how very cool concept I want to see how very cool concept I want to see how that's expanded later on life on the road on life on the road cityscape okay so this is Grand Trad cityscape okay so this is Grand Trad cityscape okay so this is Grand Trad this is the main city this is kind of this is the main city this is kind of this is the main city this is kind of the central capital the central capital the central capital of the of the of the world ah here here is the gauntlet world ah here here is the gauntlet world ah here here is the gauntlet Runner here's our first look at the Runner here's our first look at the Runner here's our first look at the gauntlet runner in this showcase and gauntlet runner in this showcase and gauntlet runner in this showcase and take a look at this this very Evangelion take a look at this this very Evangelion take a look at this this very Evangelion looking vehicle take notice of these looking vehicle take notice of these looking vehicle take notice of these legs and take a notice of this Frame of legs and take a notice of this Frame of legs and take a notice of this Frame of this Gauntlet Runner over here and keep this Gauntlet Runner over here and keep this Gauntlet Runner over here and keep that in mind as we go on later into that in mind as we go on later into that in mind as we go on later into this in this to travel the world as for this in this to travel the world as for this in this to travel the world as for our protagonist he's a boy from an our protagonist he's a boy from an our protagonist he's a boy from an inferior tribe abhor by others inferior tribe abhor by others inferior tribe abhor by others interesting yeah so he he doesn't interesting yeah so he he doesn't interesting yeah so he he doesn't necessarily call out the Elder tribe but necessarily call out the Elder tribe but necessarily call out the Elder tribe but he mentions that our protagonist is from he mentions that our protagonist is from he mentions that our protagonist is from a tribe that is inferior and not as well a tribe that is inferior and not as well a tribe that is inferior and not as well looked upon by other people and that's looked upon by other people and that's looked upon by other people and that's very interesting you see kind of the very interesting you see kind of the very interesting you see kind of the underbelly of this town and this is even underbelly of this town and this is even underbelly of this town and this is even like the capital of the kingdom and you

the naon sort of of this game but a the naon sort of of this game but a little bit more serious so I think this little bit more serious so I think this little bit more serious so I think this will be around the time in the game that will be around the time in the game that will be around the time in the game that he'll be on our party and will get to he'll be on our party and will get to he'll be on our party and will get to recruit him to our party also you guys recruit him to our party also you guys recruit him to our party also you guys might have heard what hashino was saying might have heard what hashino was saying might have heard what hashino was saying here about traveling and staying at new here about traveling and staying at new here about traveling and staying at new places so that seems to be a unique places so that seems to be a unique places so that seems to be a unique aspect of this game and it seems that aspect of this game and it seems that aspect of this game and it seems that we'll be playing a part in every single we'll be playing a part in every single we'll be playing a part in every single aspect of this adventure and this aspect of this adventure and this aspect of this adventure and this journey so it's truly going to be like a journey so it's truly going to be like a journey so it's truly going to be like a road tripping Adventure where we're road tripping Adventure where we're road tripping Adventure where we're doing even the smallest minute tasks but doing even the smallest minute tasks but doing even the smallest minute tasks but those small minute tasks might really those small minute tasks might really those small minute tasks might really play a big role in our development and play a big role in our development and play a big role in our development and our progression as characters also there our progression as characters also there our progression as characters also there seems to be a lot of NPCs here but in seems to be a lot of NPCs here but in seems to be a lot of NPCs here but in particular I'm most interested in a few particular I'm most interested in a few particular I'm most interested in a few of them let's take a look so over here of them let's take a look so over here of them let's take a look so over here we can see these three NPCs icons over we can see these three NPCs icons over we can see these three NPCs icons over the head who is this ghost guy with this the head who is this ghost guy with this the head who is this ghost guy with this book on top of his head who is this book on top of his head who is this book on top of his head who is this hooded Mage it's like a hooded Mage with hooded Mage it's like a hooded Mage with hooded Mage it's like a hooded Mage with a scepter with like a crystal ball over a scepter with like a crystal ball over a scepter with like a crystal ball over his head and then this NPC I'm just I'm his head and then this NPC I'm just I'm his head and then this NPC I'm just I'm assuming he's is going to give us a assuming he's is going to give us a assuming he's is going to give us a quest of some sort and then there's more quest of some sort and then there's more quest of some sort and then there's more NPCs with icons over their head so I'm NPCs with icons over their head so I'm NPCs with icons over their head so I'm curious what each of these icons mean curious what each of these icons mean curious what each of these icons mean and what they're going to do and what and what they're going to do and what and what they're going to do and what kind of situations will be put in when kind of situations will be put in when kind of situations will be put in when we encounter them and interact with them we encounter them and interact with them we encounter them and interact with them so look at this even lady Joanna is so look at this even lady Joanna is so look at this even lady Joanna is exhausted with the whole thing exhausted with the whole thing exhausted with the whole thing interesting I'm assuming she might be

enjoyable H collecting information is enjoyable H collecting information is something we put a lot of thought into something we put a lot of thought into something we put a lot of thought into making enjoyable interesting I just making enjoyable interesting I just making enjoyable interesting I just wonder how the informant will help with wonder how the informant will help with wonder how the informant will help with quests because look at quests because look at quests because look at this let's let's see yeah so we we buy this let's let's see yeah so we we buy this let's let's see yeah so we we buy information from information from information from him so learn about the secret of the him so learn about the secret of the him so learn about the secret of the castle there have been rumors of a castle there have been rumors of a castle there have been rumors of a monster within the castle grounds so I'm monster within the castle grounds so I'm monster within the castle grounds so I'm just curious how are we going to get just curious how are we going to get just curious how are we going to get more information from this guy like what more information from this guy like what more information from this guy like what what will it benefit in are we going to what will it benefit in are we going to what will it benefit in are we going to get more items from these quests are we get more items from these quests are we get more items from these quests are we going to learn about certain weaknesses going to learn about certain weaknesses going to learn about certain weaknesses and affinities of the mini bosses that and affinities of the mini bosses that and affinities of the mini bosses that we en counter on these quests are we we en counter on these quests are we we en counter on these quests are we going to learn about shortcuts in these going to learn about shortcuts in these going to learn about shortcuts in these dungeons that might help us out are we dungeons that might help us out are we dungeons that might help us out are we going to get hints for certain puzzles going to get hints for certain puzzles going to get hints for certain puzzles Within These dungeons I don't think we Within These dungeons I don't think we Within These dungeons I don't think we got a lot of those answers but I guess got a lot of those answers but I guess got a lot of those answers but I guess they're teasing this idea of the they're teasing this idea of the they're teasing this idea of the informance and the importance they'll informance and the importance they'll informance and the importance they'll have within this game like this is have within this game like this is have within this game like this is something we put a lot of thought into something we put a lot of thought into something we put a lot of thought into making making making enjoy so a lot of This Town Gameplay and enjoy so a lot of This Town Gameplay and enjoy so a lot of This Town Gameplay and the features it all seems cool but I the features it all seems cool but I the features it all seems cool but I feel like they're holding back and feel like they're holding back and feel like they're holding back and telling us and hashino even says it telling us and hashino even says it telling us and hashino even says it himself see I can't cover it all so stay himself see I can't cover it all so stay himself see I can't cover it all so stay tuned for future and further tuned for future and further tuned for future and further announcements it all feels very announcements it all feels very announcements it all feels very traditional RPG stuff like talk to traditional RPG stuff like talk to traditional RPG stuff like talk to people see what the issues are go and people see what the issues are go and people see what the issues are go and get your bounties get your side quests get your bounties get your side quests get your bounties get your side quests go to the informant learn about

go to the informant learn about go to the informant learn about information just I wouldn't even say information just I wouldn't even say information just I wouldn't even say run-of-the-mill but just very run-of-the-mill but just very run-of-the-mill but just very traditional RPG traditional RPG traditional RPG kind of mechanics and activities you do kind of mechanics and activities you do kind of mechanics and activities you do in the towns but these are just the in the towns but these are just the in the towns but these are just the first few towns we're going to encounter first few towns we're going to encounter first few towns we're going to encounter in the game and explore so once we go to in the game and explore so once we go to in the game and explore so once we go to other towns larger more expansive places other towns larger more expansive places other towns larger more expansive places I think there will be a lot more stuff I think there will be a lot more stuff I think there will be a lot more stuff to do there so I think that's what to do there so I think that's what to do there so I think that's what hashino is hashino is hashino is teasing okay guys take a look at this teasing okay guys take a look at this teasing okay guys take a look at this look at the gauntlet Runner looks look at the gauntlet Runner looks look at the gauntlet Runner looks different from what we saw it in Grand different from what we saw it in Grand different from what we saw it in Grand Trad doesn't it it's all white now with Trad doesn't it it's all white now with Trad doesn't it it's all white now with white legs and a white back and all that white legs and a white back and all that white legs and a white back and all that yeah looks like we can yeah looks like we can yeah looks like we can customize our Gauntlet Runner and that's customize our Gauntlet Runner and that's customize our Gauntlet Runner and that's just that's going to be a lot of fun to just that's going to be a lot of fun to just that's going to be a lot of fun to play around with so with what do you play around with so with what do you play around with so with what do you says over here metaphor revolves around says over here metaphor revolves around says over here metaphor revolves around the concepts of dates and time it seems the concepts of dates and time it seems the concepts of dates and time it seems like the calendar system is going to be like the calendar system is going to be like the calendar system is going to be back for people today travel often has a back for people today travel often has a back for people today travel often has a fixed itinerary such as 3 days and two fixed itinerary such as 3 days and two fixed itinerary such as 3 days and two nights nights nights so in this game we've captured the so in this game we've captured the so in this game we've captured the travel experience with predetermined travel experience with predetermined travel experience with predetermined lengths of activities and structure so lengths of activities and structure so lengths of activities and structure so hash was talking about how metaphor is hash was talking about how metaphor is hash was talking about how metaphor is on a time limit and it's just like a on a time limit and it's just like a on a time limit and it's just like a normal trip or vacation that you would normal trip or vacation that you would normal trip or vacation that you would go on with friends and family so it go on with friends and family so it go on with friends and family so it seems like each activity each dungeon seems like each activity each dungeon seems like each activity each dungeon each side quest each Bounty will either

each side quest each Bounty will either each side quest each Bounty will either have a specific day or time assigned to have a specific day or time assigned to have a specific day or time assigned to it or a specific amount of time it will it or a specific amount of time it will it or a specific amount of time it will take to accomplish so we have to plan take to accomplish so we have to plan take to accomplish so we have to plan out our days accordingly cuz as we can out our days accordingly cuz as we can out our days accordingly cuz as we can see soon we once we start picking which see soon we once we start picking which see soon we once we start picking which side quests and which quests we want to side quests and which quests we want to side quests and which quests we want to do we'll see the time limits and do we'll see the time limits and do we'll see the time limits and deadlines for all of them so another deadlines for all of them so another deadlines for all of them so another thing over here which is thing over here which is thing over here which is interesting is there seems to be interesting is there seems to be interesting is there seems to be deadlines on some of these quests and no deadlines on some of these quests and no deadlines on some of these quests and no deadlines on other quests and there seem deadlines on other quests and there seem deadlines on other quests and there seem to be three different kinds of side to be three different kinds of side to be three different kinds of side quests or just quests in general there quests or just quests in general there quests or just quests in general there are the bounties that you get from the are the bounties that you get from the are the bounties that you get from the recruitment centers there are favors and recruitment centers there are favors and recruitment centers there are favors and the favors seem to be the only ones that the favors seem to be the only ones that the favors seem to be the only ones that have a deadline and then you have have a deadline and then you have have a deadline and then you have searches and I'm assuming the rank is searches and I'm assuming the rank is searches and I'm assuming the rank is there to denote the difficulty of the there to denote the difficulty of the there to denote the difficulty of the quests that we've accepted and obviously quests that we've accepted and obviously quests that we've accepted and obviously the ones with the higher rank will the ones with the higher rank will the ones with the higher rank will probably give us a better reward quests probably give us a better reward quests probably give us a better reward quests have deadlines and ranks for difficulty have deadlines and ranks for difficulty have deadlines and ranks for difficulty and their rewards can be money as well and their rewards can be money as well and their rewards can be money as well as social stats so look at over look at as social stats so look at over look at as social stats so look at over look at this over here no deadline higher rank this over here no deadline higher rank this over here no deadline higher rank will probably give us a little more will probably give us a little more will probably give us a little more money and it'll also increase one of our money and it'll also increase one of our money and it'll also increase one of our social stats which is courage and also social stats which is courage and also social stats which is courage and also take a look at this so it's giving us a take a look at this so it's giving us a take a look at this so it's giving us a kind of description of the recruiter kind of description of the recruiter kind of description of the recruiter dispatcher and then the informant at the dispatcher and then the informant at the dispatcher and then the informant at the tavern in ther Square in Mara should

tavern in ther Square in Mara should tavern in ther Square in Mara should have more details so maybe for this have more details so maybe for this have more details so maybe for this quest in particular we have not talked quest in particular we have not talked quest in particular we have not talked to the informant yet so again what to the informant yet so again what to the informant yet so again what information and what benefit will the information and what benefit will the information and what benefit will the informance give us will it give us hints informance give us will it give us hints informance give us will it give us hints or weaknesses for certain enemies and so or weaknesses for certain enemies and so or weaknesses for certain enemies and so on and so forth we talked about that on and so forth we talked about that on and so forth we talked about that before what do you guys think let me before what do you guys think let me before what do you guys think let me know in the comments below you have a know in the comments below you have a know in the comments below you have a set time frame to complete the main set time frame to complete the main set time frame to complete the main story objective at each location you story objective at each location you story objective at each location you visit you have a set time frame to visit you have a set time frame to visit you have a set time frame to complete the main story objective so in complete the main story objective so in complete the main story objective so in between that I'm assuming you can do between that I'm assuming you can do between that I'm assuming you can do side quests you can explore the town and side quests you can explore the town and side quests you can explore the town and you can maybe even do some of the bond you can maybe even do some of the bond you can maybe even do some of the bond quests which we'll talk about later in quests which we'll talk about later in quests which we'll talk about later in the video as the video as the video as well but these side quests play an well but these side quests play an well but these side quests play an important role in the story important role in the story important role in the story too yeah I'm I'm happy to hear that too yeah I'm I'm happy to hear that too yeah I'm I'm happy to hear that these side quests are going to give you these side quests are going to give you these side quests are going to give you good rewards and good gear and good good rewards and good gear and good good rewards and good gear and good weapons but I hope that they're also fun weapons but I hope that they're also fun weapons but I hope that they're also fun to do I hope they're they're not like to do I hope they're they're not like to do I hope they're they're not like just annoying fetch quests or if you're just annoying fetch quests or if you're just annoying fetch quests or if you're looking at Atlas and Persona games for looking at Atlas and Persona games for looking at Atlas and Persona games for example I hope they're more involved and example I hope they're more involved and example I hope they're more involved and more interesting than the ones from more interesting than the ones from more interesting than the ones from Shinigami tensei 5 and the uh momentos Shinigami tensei 5 and the uh momentos Shinigami tensei 5 and the uh momentos requests in Persona 5 as well so which requests in Persona 5 as well so which requests in Persona 5 as well so which challenges you take on first will play a challenges you take on first will play a challenges you take on first will play a big factor in your big factor in your big factor in your experience donation instantly so this is experience donation instantly so this is experience donation instantly so this is a very unique take that they're doing

a very unique take that they're doing a very unique take that they're doing here when you pick your destination you here when you pick your destination you here when you pick your destination you don't immediately get there you don't don't immediately get there you don't don't immediately get there you don't immediately fast travel you're traveling immediately fast travel you're traveling immediately fast travel you're traveling in your Gauntlet Runner you're actually in your Gauntlet Runner you're actually in your Gauntlet Runner you're actually traveling in real time and that's my traveling in real time and that's my traveling in real time and that's my huge question I am very confused about huge question I am very confused about huge question I am very confused about these Gauntlet Runner activities because these Gauntlet Runner activities because these Gauntlet Runner activities because you have a lot of things you can do you you have a lot of things you can do you you have a lot of things you can do you can go to the bathroom you can go to the can go to the bathroom you can go to the can go to the bathroom you can go to the washroom you can go to the pantry you washroom you can go to the pantry you washroom you can go to the pantry you can cook at the cooking can cook at the cooking can cook at the cooking table do all these things and and I'm table do all these things and and I'm table do all these things and and I'm just wondering what is the time limit just wondering what is the time limit just wondering what is the time limit for all of this stuff for all of this stuff for all of this stuff like when how much can I do before they like when how much can I do before they like when how much can I do before they tell me hey we've reached our tell me hey we've reached our tell me hey we've reached our destination or like depending on how destination or like depending on how destination or like depending on how close the destination is maybe if I just close the destination is maybe if I just close the destination is maybe if I just cook once I'll be at the destination or cook once I'll be at the destination or cook once I'll be at the destination or maybe if if the destination is far away maybe if if the destination is far away maybe if if the destination is far away I can do a little more activities and I can do a little more activities and I can do a little more activities and then we'll reach our destination and then we'll reach our destination and then we'll reach our destination and then I'll be able to continue on on the then I'll be able to continue on on the then I'll be able to continue on on the story but I don't think they really story but I don't think they really story but I don't think they really talked about that here how many things talked about that here how many things talked about that here how many things can we do till we reach the destination can we do till we reach the destination can we do till we reach the destination what can and what can we not do a lot of what can and what can we not do a lot of what can and what can we not do a lot of this exploration and activities within this exploration and activities within this exploration and activities within your home base sort of makes me think of your home base sort of makes me think of your home base sort of makes me think of what the high wind in Final Fantasy 7 what the high wind in Final Fantasy 7 what the high wind in Final Fantasy 7 remake part 3 could be like what we remake part 3 could be like what we remake part 3 could be like what we experienced of the high wind in the experienced of the high wind in the experienced of the high wind in the original Final Fantasy 7 sort of reminds original Final Fantasy 7 sort of reminds original Final Fantasy 7 sort of reminds me of some of the activities you're me of some of the activities you're me of some of the activities you're doing here in The Gauntlet Runner style

Kandi interesting interesting ah here Kandi interesting interesting ah here we're talking about the job system we're talking about the job system we're talking about the job system finally so our classes are archetypes finally so our classes are archetypes finally so our classes are archetypes basically by confronting their basically by confronting their basically by confronting their anxiety the protagonists acquire these anxiety the protagonists acquire these anxiety the protagonists acquire these archetypes of special power so that archetypes of special power so that archetypes of special power so that relates back to what we're talking about relates back to what we're talking about relates back to what we're talking about in the trailer discussion and what's in the trailer discussion and what's in the trailer discussion and what's really cool about these archetypes is really cool about these archetypes is really cool about these archetypes is you can kind of mix and match them you can kind of mix and match them you can kind of mix and match them within your party which is really within your party which is really within your party which is really awesome which we'll learn a little bit awesome which we'll learn a little bit awesome which we'll learn a little bit about that about that about that later and I'm just going to say this I later and I'm just going to say this I later and I'm just going to say this I am a noob and I still have not played am a noob and I still have not played am a noob and I still have not played Final Fantasy 5 or Bravely Default so my Final Fantasy 5 or Bravely Default so my Final Fantasy 5 or Bravely Default so my only experience with a job system in a only experience with a job system in a only experience with a job system in a game you can roast me in the comments game you can roast me in the comments game you can roast me in the comments down below is Xenoblade Chronicles 3 down below is Xenoblade Chronicles 3 down below is Xenoblade Chronicles 3 which has its hero system similar to the which has its hero system similar to the which has its hero system similar to the archetype system and they share a lot of archetype system and they share a lot of archetype system and they share a lot of similarities yeah a lot of metaphors similarities yeah a lot of metaphors similarities yeah a lot of metaphors archetype system has a lot to do and has archetype system has a lot to do and has archetype system has a lot to do and has a lot of similarities with the hero a lot of similarities with the hero a lot of similarities with the hero system by confronting their anxiety the system by confronting their anxiety the system by confronting their anxiety the protagonist so right now will is a mage protagonist so right now will is a mage protagonist so right now will is a mage AC these archetypes a special power AC these archetypes a special power AC these archetypes a special power think of them as heroic figures everyone think of them as heroic figures everyone think of them as heroic figures everyone possesses their powers manifest in possesses their powers manifest in possesses their powers manifest in various forms throughout the game so various forms throughout the game so various forms throughout the game so this V truvian man skill tree thing we this V truvian man skill tree thing we this V truvian man skill tree thing we got over here can see all the archetypes got over here can see all the archetypes got over here can see all the archetypes being like these little nodes on each of being like these little nodes on each of being like these little nodes on each of the each part of the limb of this the each part of the limb of this the each part of the limb of this vetruvian man and we can see some nodes

vetruvian man and we can see some nodes vetruvian man and we can see some nodes are empty some nodes still need to be are empty some nodes still need to be are empty some nodes still need to be completed and it looks like each node completed and it looks like each node completed and it looks like each node corresponds to one corresponds to one corresponds to one archetype but I feel like there's a archetype but I feel like there's a archetype but I feel like there's a little bit more from this menu from this little bit more from this menu from this little bit more from this menu from this Vitruvian Man sort of menu that we're Vitruvian Man sort of menu that we're Vitruvian Man sort of menu that we're missing out and I have a theory about missing out and I have a theory about missing out and I have a theory about that a little later which I'll talk that a little later which I'll talk that a little later which I'll talk about examples of some archetypes that about examples of some archetypes that about examples of some archetypes that show early in the game include the show early in the game include the show early in the game include the Seeker the character can undergo a Seeker the character can undergo a Seeker the character can undergo a transformation taking on the appearance transformation taking on the appearance transformation taking on the appearance of various heroic forms so of various heroic forms so of various heroic forms so yeah the characters can transform into yeah the characters can transform into yeah the characters can transform into the archetype but I'm curious are they the archetype but I'm curious are they the archetype but I'm curious are they going to be able to transform into these going to be able to transform into these going to be able to transform into these archetypes during battle as well I'm archetypes during battle as well I'm archetypes during battle as well I'm pretty sure that's the case and I feel pretty sure that's the case and I feel pretty sure that's the case and I feel like that'll be sort of like your limit like that'll be sort of like your limit like that'll be sort of like your limit break or trans or kind of like oruro break or trans or kind of like oruro break or trans or kind of like oruro boros form just kind of like a special boros form just kind of like a special boros form just kind of like a special boost your character gets in their boost your character gets in their boost your character gets in their combat and their stats and their attacks combat and their stats and their attacks combat and their stats and their attacks and all that your compion power to and all that your compion power to and all that your compion power to analyze your analyze your analyze your surroundings so first of all from the surroundings so first of all from the surroundings so first of all from the looks of this the dungeons look a lot looks of this the dungeons look a lot looks of this the dungeons look a lot better than Soul hackers 2o but I have better than Soul hackers 2o but I have better than Soul hackers 2o but I have to see how they compare to the likes of to see how they compare to the likes of to see how they compare to the likes of Persona 5 palaces but from the looks of Persona 5 palaces but from the looks of Persona 5 palaces but from the looks of this this Dragon Temple seems to be just this this Dragon Temple seems to be just this this Dragon Temple seems to be just a simple side quest dungeon I don't a simple side quest dungeon I don't a simple side quest dungeon I don't think we've seen any of the main story think we've seen any of the main story think we've seen any of the main story dungeons yet in this showcase we might dungeons yet in this showcase we might dungeons yet in this showcase we might have in other trailers but I think the

have in other trailers but I think the have in other trailers but I think the main story uh dungeons will look a lot main story uh dungeons will look a lot main story uh dungeons will look a lot better than these and a lot more fun to better than these and a lot more fun to better than these and a lot more fun to just play around in can win against weaker enemies so I in can win against weaker enemies so I like that he says that tedious and slow like that he says that tedious and slow like that he says that tedious and slow pace encounters can slow things down pace encounters can slow things down pace encounters can slow things down especially if you know you can win especially if you know you can win especially if you know you can win against the weaker enemies so getting against the weaker enemies so getting against the weaker enemies so getting those like blue outlined enemies out of those like blue outlined enemies out of those like blue outlined enemies out of the way that's that's very that that the way that's that's very that that the way that's that's very that that that's a very welcome thing that's very that's a very welcome thing that's very that's a very welcome thing that's very helpful and very convenient and very helpful and very convenient and very helpful and very convenient and very easy but I have a lot of questions still easy but I have a lot of questions still easy but I have a lot of questions still about this battle system because you can about this battle system because you can about this battle system because you can do that with the blue enemies yeah sure do that with the blue enemies yeah sure do that with the blue enemies yeah sure you can just get them out of the way but you can just get them out of the way but you can just get them out of the way but this yellow enemy is let's see I think this yellow enemy is let's see I think this yellow enemy is let's see I think we just saw that we were level 33 while we just saw that we were level 33 while we just saw that we were level 33 while he's level 35 so he's not much stronger he's level 35 so he's not much stronger he's level 35 so he's not much stronger than us more dangerous enemies give off than us more dangerous enemies give off than us more dangerous enemies give off a yellow a yellow a yellow [Music] [Music] [Music] yeah you start yeah you start yeah you start attacking and then immediately you get attacking and then immediately you get attacking and then immediately you get the squad option and then you get the the squad option and then you get the the squad option and then you get the upper hand in combat so is this like upper hand in combat so is this like upper hand in combat so is this like melee combat right into the squad melee combat right into the squad melee combat right into the squad attacks is that just a preemptive strike attacks is that just a preemptive strike attacks is that just a preemptive strike and hashino later talks about how it's and hashino later talks about how it's and hashino later talks about how it's like a strategic part of the combat how like a strategic part of the combat how like a strategic part of the combat how you can use that in a strategic way to you can use that in a strategic way to you can use that in a strategic way to get the upper hand and stuff but I had get the upper hand and stuff but I had get the upper hand and stuff but I had some people in my chat question and

some people in my chat question and some people in my chat question and say hey is there a way that you could go say hey is there a way that you could go say hey is there a way that you could go through this entire game of metaphor through this entire game of metaphor through this entire game of metaphor fantasio and only use action combat and fantasio and only use action combat and fantasio and only use action combat and only use melee combat is it possible only use melee combat is it possible only use melee combat is it possible like take a look at this when you start like take a look at this when you start like take a look at this when you start attacking can you continue to attack in attacking can you continue to attack in attacking can you continue to attack in a melee combat way at after it gives you a melee combat way at after it gives you a melee combat way at after it gives you this squad prompt or do you have to go this squad prompt or do you have to go this squad prompt or do you have to go into the squad mode do you have to call into the squad mode do you have to call into the squad mode do you have to call your party members to join the squad and your party members to join the squad and your party members to join the squad and turn get it into a turnbas format do you turn get it into a turnbas format do you turn get it into a turnbas format do you have to do that or could you keep on have to do that or could you keep on have to do that or could you keep on wailing away at this line with the wailing away at this line with the wailing away at this line with the action combat and similarly I had people action combat and similarly I had people action combat and similarly I had people ask in my chat are you able to go ask in my chat are you able to go ask in my chat are you able to go through the entire game playing only in through the entire game playing only in through the entire game playing only in turn-based mode can you go the entirety turn-based mode can you go the entirety turn-based mode can you go the entirety of the game playing only turn-based or of the game playing only turn-based or of the game playing only turn-based or only action or do you have to do a only action or do you have to do a only action or do you have to do a little bit of both to properly defeat little bit of both to properly defeat little bit of both to properly defeat enemies properly have a chance in these enemies properly have a chance in these enemies properly have a chance in these encounters and to get the upper hand encounters and to get the upper hand encounters and to get the upper hand also a few more questions about this also a few more questions about this also a few more questions about this battle battle battle system you got these cool attacks you system you got these cool attacks you system you got these cool attacks you got these cool skills you got going but got these cool skills you got going but got these cool skills you got going but over here over here at the top you can over here over here at the top you can over here over here at the top you can see sort of what seems to be like a see sort of what seems to be like a see sort of what seems to be like a press turn system so is that going to be press turn system so is that going to be press turn system so is that going to be exactly how it is in Shin Mami tensei is exactly how it is in Shin Mami tensei is exactly how it is in Shin Mami tensei is that going to be like a Prest system that going to be like a Prest system that going to be like a Prest system like it is in smt 4 and 5 and stuff like

like it is in smt 4 and 5 and stuff like like it is in smt 4 and 5 and stuff like that that's another huge question I have that that's another huge question I have that that's another huge question I have which wasn't really answered here which wasn't really answered here which wasn't really answered here H without drawing close and using a H without drawing close and using a H without drawing close and using a variety of skills and tactical actions variety of skills and tactical actions variety of skills and tactical actions so from what he just said so from what he just said so from what he just said there the squad option allows you to there the squad option allows you to there the squad option allows you to engage and enjoy tense tactical battles engage and enjoy tense tactical battles engage and enjoy tense tactical battles without even drawing close so with what without even drawing close so with what without even drawing close so with what he's saying over there it makes it sound he's saying over there it makes it sound he's saying over there it makes it sound like you have that option if you want to like you have that option if you want to like you have that option if you want to go and turn base you could but if you go and turn base you could but if you go and turn base you could but if you wanted to stay in action you could stay wanted to stay in action you could stay wanted to stay in action you could stay in action so I want to see more people in action so I want to see more people in action so I want to see more people play this game I want to see more people play this game I want to see more people play this game I want to see more people play the demo and see if you could play the demo and see if you could play the demo and see if you could prolong that action sequence or if you prolong that action sequence or if you prolong that action sequence or if you could immediately get into the could immediately get into the could immediately get into the turn-based mode if you really feel like turn-based mode if you really feel like turn-based mode if you really feel like doing that and another thing which I doing that and another thing which I doing that and another thing which I found really interesting as you said the found really interesting as you said the found really interesting as you said the action portion is designed to provide a action portion is designed to provide a action portion is designed to provide a tactical tactical tactical element with mechanics that can lead to element with mechanics that can lead to element with mechanics that can lead to both advantages and disadvantages so both advantages and disadvantages so both advantages and disadvantages so advantages we can see that they have the advantages we can see that they have the advantages we can see that they have the upper hand with that preemptive attack upper hand with that preemptive attack upper hand with that preemptive attack but what would some of the disadvantages but what would some of the disadvantages but what would some of the disadvantages be I guess my guess would be if for be I guess my guess would be if for be I guess my guess would be if for example your protagonist was a warrior example your protagonist was a warrior example your protagonist was a warrior or a knight or some other class that was or a knight or some other class that was or a knight or some other class that was maybe less effective against an enemy maybe less effective against an enemy maybe less effective against an enemy type such as this and the preemptive type such as this and the preemptive type such as this and the preemptive attack doesn't necessarily work and this attack doesn't necessarily work and this attack doesn't necessarily work and this Mula lion enemy instead gets the upper

Mula lion enemy instead gets the upper Mula lion enemy instead gets the upper hand instead of hand instead of hand instead of you also one thing I forgot to mention you also one thing I forgot to mention you also one thing I forgot to mention in the trailer section is the in the trailer section is the in the trailer section is the protagonist is using different attacks protagonist is using different attacks protagonist is using different attacks when fighting the action combat in the when fighting the action combat in the when fighting the action combat in the Overworld so I think depending on your Overworld so I think depending on your Overworld so I think depending on your class your move set and your melee class your move set and your melee class your move set and your melee actions in the Overworld actions in the Overworld actions in the Overworld will be different and like I said that will be different and like I said that will be different and like I said that could lead to probably advantages and could lead to probably advantages and could lead to probably advantages and maybe even disadvantages as maybe even disadvantages as maybe even disadvantages as well so I yeah that depends on which well so I yeah that depends on which well so I yeah that depends on which archetype and which weapons you might archetype and which weapons you might archetype and which weapons you might have equipped so we'll see more about have equipped so we'll see more about have equipped so we'll see more about that in future trailers and future that in future trailers and future that in future trailers and future breakdowns I guess and what's cool is breakdowns I guess and what's cool is breakdowns I guess and what's cool is hashino says that this will have more hashino says that this will have more hashino says that this will have more dungeons than any other Atlas game so dungeons than any other Atlas game so dungeons than any other Atlas game so that's very exciting but also sort of that's very exciting but also sort of that's very exciting but also sort of turning I hope a lot of these aren't turning I hope a lot of these aren't turning I hope a lot of these aren't repetitive and Bland and just for repetitive and Bland and just for repetitive and Bland and just for numbers sake ah this part is very very numbers sake ah this part is very very numbers sake ah this part is very very cool first of all this character seems cool first of all this character seems cool first of all this character seems to be a massive massive reference to to be a massive massive reference to to be a massive massive reference to Studio Zero's first game Catherine of Studio Zero's first game Catherine of Studio Zero's first game Catherine of course her name is Katarina or Catherina course her name is Katarina or Catherina course her name is Katarina or Catherina and she's in the typical Catherine pink and she's in the typical Catherine pink and she's in the typical Catherine pink so that's a really really cool reference so that's a really really cool reference so that's a really really cool reference they got there they got there they got there the yeah so the follower system is very the yeah so the follower system is very the yeah so the follower system is very similar to I guess Confidant and Social similar to I guess Confidant and Social similar to I guess Confidant and Social Links but it's also very different at

Links but it's also very different at Links but it's also very different at first I was a little upset that when I first I was a little upset that when I first I was a little upset that when I saw that in the first trailer how you saw that in the first trailer how you saw that in the first trailer how you see Bond formed and I was like oh it's see Bond formed and I was like oh it's see Bond formed and I was like oh it's just another social link it's another just another social link it's another just another social link it's another Confidant thing but this seems to be Confidant thing but this seems to be Confidant thing but this seems to be very different and the way I described very different and the way I described very different and the way I described it earlier in this video is to the hero it earlier in this video is to the hero it earlier in this video is to the hero system in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 so I'm system in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 so I'm system in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 so I'm assuming that this would be your rank assuming that this would be your rank assuming that this would be your rank one of your bond with Catherina and with one of your bond with Catherina and with one of your bond with Catherina and with that you will unlock her class or in that you will unlock her class or in that you will unlock her class or in this case it would be her this case it would be her this case it would be her archetype within each follower dwells an archetype within each follower dwells an archetype within each follower dwells an all new archetype so bonding basically all new archetype so bonding basically all new archetype so bonding basically will unlock a new class for you as well will unlock a new class for you as well will unlock a new class for you as well as all your other party members new as all your other party members new as all your other party members new archetypes in battle that awaken with archetypes in battle that awaken with archetypes in battle that awaken with there we go Bond there we go Bond there we go Bond formed new Bond and look at this you're formed new Bond and look at this you're formed new Bond and look at this you're on rank one with Katerina right so you on rank one with Katerina right so you on rank one with Katerina right so you got rank 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 instead of 10 got rank 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 instead of 10 got rank 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 instead of 10 so it's going to rank up that way and so so it's going to rank up that way and so so it's going to rank up that way and so we may not have as many social link rank we may not have as many social link rank we may not have as many social link rank UPS as there are in Persona games like UPS as there are in Persona games like UPS as there are in Persona games like Persona 3 4 and 5 but I feel like a lot Persona 3 4 and 5 but I feel like a lot Persona 3 4 and 5 but I feel like a lot of these r UPS will be a lot more of these r UPS will be a lot more of these r UPS will be a lot more beneficial to us and this is very beneficial to us and this is very beneficial to us and this is very exciting for me specifically because I exciting for me specifically because I exciting for me specifically because I love The Confidant perk system in

love The Confidant perk system in love The Confidant perk system in Persona 5 I really really love that Persona 5 I really really love that Persona 5 I really really love that system and I think and I have this system and I think and I have this system and I think and I have this inclination and I have this kind of Hope inclination and I have this kind of Hope inclination and I have this kind of Hope in my heart that it's coming back in in my heart that it's coming back in in my heart that it's coming back in this game in a new way in a new form but this game in a new way in a new form but this game in a new way in a new form but I think this is one of hash know things I think this is one of hash know things I think this is one of hash know things where he's just giving us a surface where he's just giving us a surface where he's just giving us a surface level explanation of this mechanic but level explanation of this mechanic but level explanation of this mechanic but there's way more to this that we have there's way more to this that we have there's way more to this that we have yet to discover and way more to this yet to discover and way more to this yet to discover and way more to this that he is hiding from us so what I that he is hiding from us so what I that he is hiding from us so what I think is within each rank of this Bond I think is within each rank of this Bond I think is within each rank of this Bond I guess it's called each rank that guess it's called each rank that guess it's called each rank that archetype so in this case it is the archetype so in this case it is the archetype so in this case it is the brawler katerina's brawler will be brawler katerina's brawler will be brawler katerina's brawler will be ranked up and will be strengthened with ranked up and will be strengthened with ranked up and will be strengthened with each rank of this Bond or social link each rank of this Bond or social link each rank of this Bond or social link and that's just really awesome I'm and that's just really awesome I'm and that's just really awesome I'm really excited to see that and that really excited to see that and that really excited to see that and that takes me back to this that takes me back takes me back to this that takes me back takes me back to this that takes me back to this Vitruvian Man menu over here so to this Vitruvian Man menu over here so to this Vitruvian Man menu over here so for example we unlock Katarina's brawler for example we unlock Katarina's brawler for example we unlock Katarina's brawler it's over here imagine if we can go to it's over here imagine if we can go to it's over here imagine if we can go to this node unlock this node and have more this node unlock this node and have more this node unlock this node and have more skills to equip to that brawler skills to equip to that brawler skills to equip to that brawler archetype and we can expand and archetype and we can expand and archetype and we can expand and strengthen and just grow specific strengthen and just grow specific strengthen and just grow specific archetypes in so much more ways but if

archetypes in so much more ways but if archetypes in so much more ways but if you go into each of these nodes maybe you go into each of these nodes maybe you go into each of these nodes maybe there's more skills you can unlock maybe there's more skills you can unlock maybe there's more skills you can unlock maybe there's more attacks you can learn more there's more attacks you can learn more there's more attacks you can learn more skills you can learn more stats You Can skills you can learn more stats You Can skills you can learn more stats You Can level up depending on how much to level up depending on how much to level up depending on how much to strengthen that bond with that strengthen that bond with that strengthen that bond with that respective character or respective character or respective character or hero which is related to that specific hero which is related to that specific hero which is related to that specific archetype just my prediction I don't archetype just my prediction I don't archetype just my prediction I don't know what you guys think that's just know what you guys think that's just know what you guys think that's just what I'm assuming and that's what I'm what I'm assuming and that's what I'm what I'm assuming and that's what I'm guessing based off of what we've got in guessing based off of what we've got in guessing based off of what we've got in this showcase over this showcase over this showcase over hereat there he is onor Vitruvian man hereat there he is onor Vitruvian man hereat there he is onor Vitruvian man over there on one of the limbs can sense over there on one of the limbs can sense over there on one of the limbs can sense the heroic embodiment of the brawler you the heroic embodiment of the brawler you the heroic embodiment of the brawler you can now study the brawler in Academia can now study the brawler in Academia can now study the brawler in Academia try seeing what new powers await you so try seeing what new powers await you so try seeing what new powers await you so another another Longshot guess what if another another Longshot guess what if another another Longshot guess what if you go to this place called Academia and you go to this place called Academia and you go to this place called Academia and this is where you can access these nodes this is where you can access these nodes this is where you can access these nodes level up these nodes and learn more level up these nodes and learn more level up these nodes and learn more about how you can fight as the brawler about how you can fight as the brawler about how you can fight as the brawler and learn new skills learn new attacks and learn new skills learn new attacks and learn new skills learn new attacks and learn new abilities within this and learn new abilities within this and learn new abilities within this specific archetype Within in this node specific archetype Within in this node specific archetype Within in this node on this Vitruvian man I don't know just on this Vitruvian man I don't know just on this Vitruvian man I don't know just a little bit of a theory I had and final a little bit of a theory I had and final a little bit of a theory I had and final thing I want to talk about is what thing I want to talk about is what thing I want to talk about is what hashino says over here there's a hashino says over here there's a hashino says over here there's a significant number of them in the game

significant number of them in the game significant number of them in the game so you can really customize your party so you can really customize your party so you can really customize your party in this game sort of like Xenoblade 3 in this game sort of like Xenoblade 3 in this game sort of like Xenoblade 3 remember how in the Xenoblade 3 direct remember how in the Xenoblade 3 direct remember how in the Xenoblade 3 direct they showed all six or seven of our they showed all six or seven of our they showed all six or seven of our party members or signifers over here party members or signifers over here party members or signifers over here they're showing that all four of our they're showing that all four of our they're showing that all four of our party members can be Brawlers so it's party members can be Brawlers so it's party members can be Brawlers so it's it's just your typical job system in a it's just your typical job system in a it's just your typical job system in a game and I love how you have that level game and I love how you have that level game and I love how you have that level of customization that level of freedom of customization that level of freedom of customization that level of freedom to just do whatever you want and play to just do whatever you want and play to just do whatever you want and play around with different abilities and around with different abilities and around with different abilities and different skills different classes different skills different classes different skills different classes different attacks and all that stuff different attacks and all that stuff different attacks and all that stuff really really cool stuff yeah and what's cool is it seems stuff yeah and what's cool is it seems like you get these archetypes by doing like you get these archetypes by doing like you get these archetypes by doing these specific events and I feel like these specific events and I feel like these specific events and I feel like they are side quests they could be they are side quests they could be they are side quests they could be considered side quest they could be considered side quest they could be considered side quest they could be considered Social Links or bonds or considered Social Links or bonds or considered Social Links or bonds or specific event episodes so I think along specific event episodes so I think along specific event episodes so I think along with the side quest where we have with the side quest where we have with the side quest where we have bounties and favors and all those things bounties and favors and all those things bounties and favors and all those things I feel like these follower bonding I feel like these follower bonding I feel like these follower bonding events will be a part of that as well events will be a part of that as well events will be a part of that as well where we can level up our AR types where where we can level up our AR types where where we can level up our AR types where we can deepen our bond with our party we can deepen our bond with our party we can deepen our bond with our party members and a lot of that will help our members and a lot of that will help our members and a lot of that will help our cause for will to be the next king of cause for will to be the next king of cause for will to be the next king of the kingdom of ukrania I guess and the kingdom of ukrania I guess and the kingdom of ukrania I guess and that's basically all I had to talk about

that's basically all I had to talk about that's basically all I had to talk about very very long video we had very very long video we had very very long video we had today a lot I was just rambling about today a lot I was just rambling about today a lot I was just rambling about I'm going to cut down a lot of this but I'm going to cut down a lot of this but I'm going to cut down a lot of this but let me know what you guys have to say in let me know what you guys have to say in let me know what you guys have to say in the comments below about all this that I the comments below about all this that I the comments below about all this that I have to say have to say have to say so what did you guys think that was a so what did you guys think that was a so what did you guys think that was a lot of stuff to get through and that was lot of stuff to get through and that was lot of stuff to get through and that was a lot of material to break down what's a lot of material to break down what's a lot of material to break down what's your favorite thing about this game is your favorite thing about this game is your favorite thing about this game is it the new side quests is it the new it the new side quests is it the new it the new side quests is it the new gameplay Loop is it the art style is it gameplay Loop is it the art style is it gameplay Loop is it the art style is it the characters is it the new archetype the characters is it the new archetype the characters is it the new archetype system kind of like a new job system system kind of like a new job system system kind of like a new job system that they're doing within this game what that they're doing within this game what that they're doing within this game what is your favorite thing about metaphor is your favorite thing about metaphor is your favorite thing about metaphor ref fantasio let me know in the comments ref fantasio let me know in the comments ref fantasio let me know in the comments below and like I said earlier in this below and like I said earlier in this below and like I said earlier in this video video video hit the like button and subscribe for hit the like button and subscribe for hit the like button and subscribe for more metaphor content like this I'm very more metaphor content like this I'm very more metaphor content like this I'm very very very excited for this game and I'm very very excited for this game and I'm very very excited for this game and I'm going to keep my eyes out for more news going to keep my eyes out for more news going to keep my eyes out for more news so we can talk about it here on the so we can talk about it here on the so we can talk about it here on the channel and maybe do some more live channel and maybe do some more live channel and maybe do some more live reactions this is Nishi signing off have reactions this is Nishi signing off have reactions this is Nishi signing off have a great day and go play some great games a great day and go play some great games a great day and go play some great games today like an atlas game we'll see you today like an atlas game we'll see you today like an atlas game we'll see you guys in the next one later hey guys this guys in the next one later hey guys this guys in the next one later hey guys this is Nish quick thank you so much for is Nish quick thank you so much for is Nish quick thank you so much for watching that video and if you enjoyed watching that video and if you enjoyed watching that video and if you enjoyed it check Che out these videos on the it check Che out these videos on the it check Che out these videos on the left and if you haven't subscribed why left and if you haven't subscribed why left and if you haven't subscribed why not hit the Subscribe button on the way not hit the Subscribe button on the way not hit the Subscribe button on the way out and consider joining as a Nish quick out and consider joining as a Nish quick out and consider joining as a Nish quick pops member for some awesome additional pops member for some awesome additional pops member for some awesome additional Nintendo and jrpg related perks I'll see Nintendo and jrpg related perks I'll see Nintendo and jrpg related perks I'll see you guys in the next video later and
