126 - Princess Arete
Intentionally slow-paced and contemplative, it deconstructs fairy tale tropes in a way that never feels clichéd or obvious. It really is a hidden gem of a movie

138 - The Black Cauldron
It's far from being a perfect movie, it clearly needed a deeper characterization, but I appreciate Disney the most when they push out of their usual boundaries, as they tried to do with it, its atmosphere is so unique in their canon

Je pose cette question un peu tard certes, mais :

Dans le cadre de mon mémoire sur la réception du Gekiga en France, je vais être amené à devoir séjourner sur Paris pour décortiquer un nombre important de documents...

Par hasard, est-ce que quelqu'un accepterait de m'héberger ?

Some more Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara artwork by Kinu Nishimura most likely used for promotional purposes. Upscaled and slightly retouched.

This is Kuro no Ken, AKA Blade of the Darkness, which IIRC is the PS1 port of a Windows remake of a PC-98 RPG and I really will have to write about it soon :)

#RandomGameSaturday
A photo showing the box for Kuro no Ken held up to the camera. Anime Hero Guy clutches an unconscious woman to his side. They both appear to be wearing fantasy armour. The art has a muted watercolour look to it.

DušaN

Clip musical de 3 minutes sortis en 2015 et réalisé par Kousuke Sugimoto, sur un morceau du groupe Slovaque Saténové ruky.

Le clip parle de l'âme du protagoniste qui ne cesse de « parler » lorsqu'il est sous l'emprise de cocaïne.

20 years ago, Dragon Quest found its modern western identity: Dragon Quest VIII finally kept its original name, went with a wonderfully british dub, orchestral music and a beautifully reworked interface - an amazing adventure that set the tone for most that came after. Also: Yangus was awesome!!

EverGrace's development pushed FromSoftware's team in coming to grips with the PS2 (and which was briefly developed for the PS1 before the about face!). But in trying out a few new ideas, it's an interesting peek at FromSoft's early history with a different, and not as bloodthirsty, kind of RPG!

Critics in general gave FromSoft's adventure something of a cool reception. EGM's review crew knocked the game for a variety of different reasons ranging from technical issues like its "obnoxious" load times to its "jaggy visuals" while praising features like its "dress-up" system.
EGM's crew had a number of very different things to say about the game as you can probably guess from the range of scores (6.5, 5.5, and 7.5). Jonathan noted the technical issues such as the loads and slowdown with too many enemies while praising its player management system. Mark didn't care for the 'jaggy' visuals, controls, or the bland environment. Chris was a bit more forgiving, with praise for the gameplay and its 'dress-up' system, but wasn't a fan of the music or how the voice acting could get "cheesy" ultimately calling it decent launch title (it was a launch game for the NA release of the PS2).

EverGrace was rough around the edges but it also had a few neat ideas, too, such as utilizing a "paper doll" inventory system (a concept that had also seen use in the PC space with games like Ultima VI in 1990). Dungeons were also filled with action and, sometimes, devious puzzles.

Aside from choosing between two different characters (who eventually do come together), EverGrace's gameplay mechanics were straight to the point. Monsters dropped "palmira" (and sometimes gear) which was used to buy, upgrade, and maintain both you and your arsenal.

FromSoftware took a new direction with EverGrace using a third-person view and a much more forgiving approach from their King's Field series. There were no levels: characters improved with gear and gear upgrades instead and players could switch between either protagonist.

EverGrace (2000) is an action RPG by FromSoftware for the Sony PlayStation 2. The Rieubane Empire is but an ancient legend, but somehow, Darius and Sharline find themselves there! When they try to seek answers, a hidden evil slowly takes an interest in their stories. (a fried egg beatdown thread)

Lightning Legend: Daigo no Daibouken
Sony Playstation, 1996
Konami

For Fighting Game Friday, Konami's first 3D fighter, mostly forgotten, probably because it doesn't play particularly great.

BUT, it's got a *great* low-poly anime visual style with a lot of character.

At twilight, under the neon glow of the modern world, Rough and Tumble Punk Fight Girl Mayu Uzaka performs a hurricanrana on blonde hunk Terrific Forelock. Yes, his name is Terrific Forelock. After walloping Mayu in the middle of the street, Beautiful Elf Woman Misa Atago poses with her arms wide, presenting to the defeated player large interface text reading "YOU LOSE". Rough and Tumble Punk Fight Girl Mayu Uzaka is hot-blooded and ready for battle. In close-up her attire becomes more visible: Fingerless leather gloves, denim vest over shredded tee. Spiky hair, pink as fresh bubble gum. Having bested all of her human peers, Rough and Tumble Punk Fight Girl Mayu Uzaka now comes face to face with a gigantic muscled demon straight off of Akira Toriyama's desk. Grinning devilishly, it fills the screen with its imposing mass.
