Golden Sun: Dark Dawn!

[Salanewt]

Oh yeah, thanks Role.

Fixed!

And I have a new theory. Comparing that Karis image to this image...



It would seem like Terrell leaves your party for a bit. I mean, having 28 HP with Terrell compared to 80+ without Terrell...

Have a nice day.

Good eye, Sala.  That's very likely to be the case.  Can't wait to see some show floor videos, personally.


One of the ideas going around in GameFAQs is that the fourth PICTURED character is ISAAC - as a tutorial ally, kinda like Jenna in GS1.  There in the beginning, but leaves afterwards.  It would explain the 2 Handed sword, which looks like it's in stark contrast to Crown's HP multiplier.

[Hoopa]

That could explain it, but then why is he named Crown? Maybe it's a title he's gotten over the ages..? Also, doesn't it take place 30 years afterwards? Wouldn't he look a bit older...?

[Rolina]

By that logic, her name isn't Jenna, it's Mia.

Reread my post.  It suggests that we don't actually see Crown in any pic where he's also named - the character at the bottom wasn't named, so that may not be them - that could be Tutorial Ally Isaac.

[Hoopa]

Ah I see... That makes sense then.

On another note... wasn't Jenna going to take Mia's place originally and vice versa? Wait, nvm. Irrelevant.

[Rolina]

Are you implying that Isaac a damsel in distress?

[Salanewt]

Aw, isn't Mars so cute? From what I can tell, its tail shrunk a tiny bit though.

Have a nice day.


Edit: Unless a part of it is inside the wall?

Edit again:


Somehow, I think Crown does come with you to later areas.

[Rolina]

Naw, that's just perspective.

Also:  No, that looks like a tutorial area.  Otherwise, I highly doubt they'd have split up like that just to cast a psynergy.  Methinks it may be Papa Isaac.

You are probably right. He does come with you to multiple areas though, which is kind of odd in a way.



Have a nice day.

[Rolina]

Could this not be the same area, though?

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

It could. Who else hates the names of Matthew, Karis and Terrell? When it comes out, I'll be using Renn for Matthew, Sarina for Karis and Durion for Terrell, who else is changing their names?

[leaf]

The only name I don't like is Karis, since it reminds me of Karas.

Anyway, @Role quoting the press release: Ah, interesting... so no alternate world, but now for some reason we have the psynergy equivalent of black holes. I guess that makes the question "where is this psynergy going to?" Probably to whatever was supposed to be sealed away...

Well, we can count on there being some kind of powered down sequence in the game at some point, now >_>

remember the names could change.....

but yea

Issac looking dude = Oscar
red head guy now is = Fergal
Girls name can stay

[thenightsshadow]

Is there any possibility that these names ARE changed names and that they're not actually shown yet?

[MaxiPower]

doubt it? Then again, when the game gets translated for us it may different names.

VERY strong.

After all, nobody names their kid Crown.  That's just silly, like naming your Daughter Brassiere. Only japan would think that's normal.

These are likely the japanese games, like Robin, Mary, and Gerald.  It'll likely be changed internationally.

[Atrius (He/Him)]

Just like how PP is label EP.  That's what it was in the Japanese Golden Sun, Psynergy was just called Energy, and Adepts were called Energists.

[Rolina]

Exactly.  So we have strong reason to believe that they'll get different names here.  Especially Crown - honestly, who names their kid after a hat?

[MaxiPower]

So at least theres hope for the names......

seriously Matthew has to go...

[Atrius (He/Him)]

Also, about the discussion about whether Terrell or Karis joins first, don't forget that when the original GS was created the early screen shots had Mia fighting in Sol Sanctum and no signs of Ivan.
