Picked up the new Ys game and dropped a few hours into it last night. Awesome so far. I love the darker, gothic feel to the city of Balduq and the awesome costume designs of the Monstrums.
The dialog is also top-notch, with a self-awareness to it that brings some levity even in the most dire of circumstances.
I wouldn't say the gameplay tempo or mechanics are much different than 8 or Celceta, but they feel a bit more refined here. Music is amazing as usual - what Falcom game doesn't have an amazing soundtrack?
Anyone else playing? I totally forgot about this game, and saw that the PS4 version dropped on Tuesday so I went ahead and picked it up. After the debacle that was Ys 8 on PC, I decided to stick to console for new releases.
