Prequel confirmed for brawl

“Rieko Kodama’s greetings, vol. 1″:http://jrpg.jp/voice/?vid=67

> 今作は、映画スターウォーズシリーズにおけるエピソード4~6の後に、エピソード1~3が作られたような感じだとご理解していただければと思います。
> 前作の続きものということではありませんので、新たに手にとられる方も、特に違和感なくプレイしていただけるかと思います。

I don’t know if this counts as the official weekly update but there is some text from Kodama stating that you should think of the new game as Star Wars Episodes 1-3, since the ending to the original 7th Dragon was pretty definitive and there isn’t much room for a sequel there.

I hope she’s aware that 1-3 were terrible…? Haha.

Should also point out that there are five character portraits on the 7d 2020 site, reload to see them all.

New impression movie is coming Soon™.

Also some text about Miwa Shiro, and about making the game friendlier than the last installment on the DS.

Update 5/19

“Official site update 5/19″:http://jrpg.jp/news/?eid=16&nid=107

2020 AD.
Tokyo in the near future has suddenly been swarmed by a countless number of dragons.
The dragons’ territory is hidden in a swath of Flowaro…

Reads like something out of a kaiju movie doesn’t it? Anyway, more screenshots today, some map screens, some monster screens, and a few backdrops we’ve seen before.

Some screenshots of Shibuya. Of note, again, it is pointed out that flowaro do NOT cause damage if you walk on them.

Then a screenshot, again, of the Tokyo Government Office in Shinjuku. You can see a Murakumo flag flying outside. Apparently this is one of the last holdouts of humanity, and used to be a Murakumo base at some point. Things aren’t looking so great at the moment!

The Office has been threatened by Dragons.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the Office?

(But that’s it for now and next update will explain what the Government Office is all about.)

They’re also working on a First Impression Movie which will have chibicharas moving around. Looking forward to it :)

Official site updated! 5/12

*西暦2020年。東京。ドラゴンを狩る物語*

突如、地球をドラゴンが襲った。
ドラゴンに対抗のは、異能力者ムラクモのみ。
容姿、職業、スキル、ボイス…。
あらゆる要素を自分好みにアレンジしたパーティーをつくり、
*すべてのドラゴンを狩り尽くせ*

*AD 2020. Tokyo. A dragon hunting story (RPG).*

Out of the blue, Earth has been assaulted by dragons.
Opposing the dragons is only Murakumo, a group of espers.
Appearance, job, skill, voice….
Every aspect of your party can be arranged to your liking.
Make a party, and hunt down every last one of the dragons!

Notes

* 異能力者 means something like “supernatural ability users” so, “espers” for now
* “すべてのドラゴンを狩り尽くせ” is the slogan from the previous 7D.

Looking forward to the new game.

More news for today:

Screenshots aplenty.

On Twitter, Niinou has mentioned that Flowaro won’t be doing damage anymore — which is great, seeing as the damage tiles were one of the major complaints of the last game.

Imageepoch is working on a new 7D game scheduled for fall, apparently.

* Producer – Kodama Rieko
* Director – Niinou Kazuya
* Sound – Koshiro Yuzo (YES)
* Character designer – Miwa Shirou
* Can alter character appearance AND voice this time around
* Can use the same character appearance with DIFFERENT classes
* It’s not Tokyo without the “requisite schoolgirl”:http://www.famitsu.com/news/201105/images/00043478/vvjx3YlkEEvf4F9tWg938873AgTb2369.html making an appearance lol
* Expect skills and classes to be significantly different
* Confirmed classes from source: Samurai, Trickster, Destroyer, Psychic, Hacker
* Flowaro is coming back, random encounters are back
* Dragons as symbol (FOE-style) encounters are coming back
* You are a part of the anti-Dragon brigade, Murakumo, in 2020 AD Tokyo

… Sounds OK to me. Except maybe that last part. We’ll see?

I’ll probably be updating as I find out more news.

rebootした。

hey everyone,

it’s been awhile. so what happened? well the site died taking ALL of my 7D material along with it. I’m sorry, I did not have any backups, and so it’s gone, completely gone.

so what’s next?

well, me, I’m working and don’t have that much time for the vidya.

but i have the 7d complete guide sitting on my desk. if I ever decide to replay the game (wiping my save data), i’ll think about updating the site again. until then, here’s my placeholder.

for those of you still reading, there’s always the “english 7d wiki”:http://7thdragon.wikidot.com/ for all your 7th dragon needs!

wishing you all the best,

pent
