Golden Sun: Dark Dawn!

[MaxiPower]

all the userface menus whilst fighting looks polished to the max. Camelot are seriously cool cats

[Aile~♥]

Blast (Nova) appears to have been renamed Starburst.

I like that the Mars guy actually isn't a Garet clone. (Garet didn't have the Blast (Nova) series)

Also, it turns out Terell's name is actually Tyrell.

Also, Tyrell has epic fighting stance.

WIND BASED HEALING, HEAL YEAH!

Okay, Matthew looks like he's a Squire.  BOO.
Terrell looks to be a mars fighter that ISN'T guard.  Guard didn't have explosive psynergy until Volcano!
Karis is a Jupiter HEALER.

Let me say that again.

Jupiter.  HEALER.  With Plasma and the new wind based healing spells.  And impact.  Hell, she looks like she totally won out class-wise.

I guess Camelot is making up for having both Ivan and Sheba as clones? This is nice indeed (though her healing spells could turn out to be weaker or something).

Have a nice day.

They are weaker. The first two levels heal 40 and 80 HP to all, respectively (so... comparatively, that's 80% of what the aura line heals and 50% of the wish line).

And I doubt matt is a squire. We saw him using plant-based psynergy in another screen, didn't we? Like how impact and plasma and such got reused on karis's class, ragnarok prob got reused on matt's.

[Salanewt]

Unless they change Herb, the first wind spell will heal less than it (but only 80% of the total, and then that does go to everyone in one turn). At least they make herbs remain useful by your first group healing spell!

Have a nice day.

[Rolina]

We've seen him using a fire spell, too.  Methinks they were playing with the djinn.

Looking at the spells he has in the vid, it really looks like a Squire.  Of course, I'd be REALLY happy to be wrong here - Squire's a great class, hell, along with Water Seer it ties for the best base class.  But it's kinda spent, you know?  Ragnarok/Odyssey was nice, the Attack Multiplier was one of the best in the game, meaning that when you maxed out attack with Ninja, Lord was a great idea to switch to because of the buffs to Meggido...  And Angel Mia was just plain broken.

@Healing amounts - Depending on how everything is when it comes out, I'll be changing my healing to match in terms of power and naming.

Here's my big question, though - Is she a spellsword?  Or a Pure Mage?  I didn't see any single target healing, so she may be kinda like Jenna in that regard... Well, unless one of those was single, and one was multi, but they looked too related for that to be the case.


Also:  Who else thought Rangarok looked awesome in 3D?

Maybe, but he did use something from the Thorn series in one video.

Also:  Who else thought Ragnarok looked awesome in 3D?

Definitely does. I would love to see Odyssey as well, if it has made it into the game.

Have a nice day.

[Rolina]

It probably did.  The characters only had two djinni each in the gameplay vids from what I've heard, so there's no way to tell if he got Odyseey or a different upgrade until someone gets a shot of him with in his Tier 4 class.

[Aile~♥]

Both Wind Healing spells are from the same set: I got a look at the target range, and it showed: ||||||||, which means Target All.

Also, Tyrell has Heat Wave, but that doesn't make him a clone. Besides, we didn't even get a good view of Matthew's Psy List. All we saw were Ragnarok and two things that looked like Quake and Earthquake. If we'd seen just that much of Tyrell's list, we'd assume he was a Guard (we'd have gotten to see Heat Wave, Flare, and Flare Wall, exactly the same as the first three spells in Garet's psy list).

We don't know that we saw Matthew using a Mars spell. The colour looked almost right for a Venus based attack. After all, it was just one screenshot.

Yes, ragnarok looked amazing. I commented on that in the other topic. =p

And I don't think they would play with the djinn in the official screens, unless they were explicitly trying to show off the class system.

He's not a clone - in another vid I saw, the guy looked like he was having him cast Nova.  Guard does NOT HAVE THAT.

Forgive his stupidity and butchering of the word Psynergy - there's a very good example of a new (though similar) class in there!

[leaf]

Is that the vid I think it is? That dude was an idiot. Wasted so much time trying to explain how to play the game (and failing at it) and he didn't even show off everything the characters had.

Also, I really hope they make R and L scroll the battle options by a full screen... otherwise, it's gonna be annoying to get to certain psys if you have to scroll through 7 icons just to get to them. A psy was never more than 3 taps away in the original games.

[Rolina]

Yup, the guy CLEARLY has never played Golden Sun before, either.

I'm gonna have to agree with you on the psynergy scrolling thing.  I think I may have actually preferred menus... HOWEVER...

I could maybe see them moving it to the top screen - likely, they included a 'tutorial' thing for the E3 Demo, so we'd have the battle on top, the scrolling menu on bottom, and an expanded menu below that.  So if you select psynergy, it'd show the battle psys below with smaller icons, but all at once or something.

[Tetsuya the Azure Blade]

I wonder who's the water adept in the new game? Is it Megan or Justin (the little kids in Imil Sanctum)?

I CAN'T wait to see older versions of Hamma, Aaron and Kay, and maybe Ahri and Akafubu too (Ahri is the baby in contigo) and Eoleo (list goes on for ever lol)

[Rolina]

...It's Crown, or have you not been paying attention?  We just don't know what he LOOKS like yet, but we're fairly certain it's a new person, not someone from the previous games.

[Salanewt]

Yeah, L or R for scrolling would be great. The stylus is optional though, which means that we could probably use the D-pad to move through them as well.

Probably Crown as the Japanese name. It could be translated to one of those other people, but I do not recall any of them using Mercury before.

Chances are, for mose of those people, some of them would have had kids of their own as well. It is possible that their kids could join though.


Have a nice day.

[MaxiPower]

the characters are more than likely all be around 20

Maiking a guess that 10 years past then they had chrildren leaving them 20 for the game

[Salanewt]

Wait, sorry? Oh right, these kids. Of course, 30 years have past, Sheba would likely be 35. Technically speaking, people can have kids in their teens, so there could easily be a chance that Isaac cloned himself when he was in his twenties, but had to raise him from being a baby, and Jenna cared so much about him to accept?

Okay okay, joking aside. Technically though, one kid could be around ten or twelve. Isaac would almost be in his fifties, so that would probably make Matthew (because of his character art) anywhere from 15-25-ish.

Have a nice day.

[MaxiPower]

Sheba would be 45.

lol 5 during the other games?
