[Fangame] Xenosaga Pied Piper

por Roy

CycloneFox y Vector Translations han publicado Xenosaga Pied Piper para PC (Windows, Mac) como una recreación o remake no oficial del Xenosaga: Pied Piper original, un spin-off de la franquicia Xenosaga desarrollado por Monolith Soft (Baten Kaitos, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Xenoblade Chronicles, Project X Zone) y Tom Create (SD Gundam G Generation, Fullmetal Alchemist: Stray Rondo, Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch DS, Bleach: The 3rd Phantom) que Namco publicó en 2004 para móviles japoneses y que se trata de un RPG situado cronológicamente antes de los acontecimentos de la trilogía para PlayStation 2, teniendo lugar 100 años antes de la primera entrega.

Localization: You can play the game in Japanese, English, German, French and Spanish.
No random encounters: Similarly to the numbered Xenosaga games you can see and dodge enemies on the field map, trap or surprise them from behind
A battle system style more similar to Xenosaga Episode III with its turn order, boosting and Special Attacks
Character faces by フォレスト (Forest): You can view the dialog faces in two modes:
- Classic: A slightly bigger character portrait inside the text-box
- Modern: A large character portrait outside the textbox to see more detail
Music by wowbobwow: While the demo was still using stock music from RPG Maker and royalty-free music, the full version has a fully original soundtrack made by wowbobwow!
Various features from the numbered Xenosaga games: As I am a passionate fan of the numbered Xenosaga games myself, I tried to turn this into a full Xenosaga-experience as much as possible, so I implemented features which are not even in the original Pied Piper:
- Segment Doors
- EVS plates
- Skill Trees
