Apparently, guttertalk was correct. Etrian Odyssey II will be hitting US DSs this June and you can expect it to be a better, bigger and more hardcore update of the original featuring at least one new class. Above you can see some screens and a sample of concept art and what follows is indeed a press release:

Why isn't the legendary Guttertalk a team member on GGOTG?
ReplyDeleteHe always seems to be a beacon of handheld gaming to mere mortals like ourselves...
I'm starting an online petition to make him a regular contributor on this esteemed blog. I'm also petitioning the Pope to have him canonised...
I wonder which will happen first?
I don't know about the Pope, but that guy in Rome with the pointy hat owes me a beer.
ReplyDeleteSadly, my ability to post on a regular basis makes J.D. Salinger look prolific, as gnome can attest. Like a half eaten chicken leg sandwiched in the sofa cushions, I have a post on another gnome blog that desperately needs attention.
I appreciate the compliment. I certainly have been persuaded to do far, far less enjoyable things . . . like that Kenny Loggins concert in the early 80s. Or that impromptu fajita-eating contest in '89 that nearly caused the manager to shut down the buffet for the night. Or that 27th shot of tequila that made a former Mother Superior question my self-preservation.
27th shot, Feck!
ReplyDeleteGnome this looks like a game I might enjoy for the DS... The only game I have finished on the DS has been Orcs & Elves.. Which was pretty basic, but fun...
Hehe, Father, as you see guttertalk is never far away from us and as I can definitely attest to, he's probably out of time. Which reminds me I have to finally finish that bloody Cabaret piece... it's almost done you know... Oh, and garry.. lol :)
ReplyDeleteIf you liked Orcs and Elves you'll probably love this one Deitrix. I suggest you give it a go.
You really like this game, don't you :)
ReplyDeleteIt shows, eh? Oh...
