I would much rather have a Dark Cloud 3, but I admit adding a town building feature has slightly increased my interest in this game from 0% to about 5%

Don't feel too bad, they only recently got Mass Effect in Japan. Hell, I'm not sure if it is out yet over there. I know it was on microsoft's lineup for this year in Japan.

Level-5 must be the dumbest company - "lets release our RPG at the same time as the next installment of Final Fantasy"

FAIL

I'm with you. If this game gets released within a month of FF13 so many people will end up overlooking it which is sad because it looks like a fantastic game. I'd still rather have Dark Cloud 3 but this can hold me over until Level-5 gets off their asses and start making that game for me. :)

Digiboi, level 5's game and final fantasy are nothing like each other, those who prefer old age swords, knights etc etc will simply pick White Knight over FF. I for one love the traditional RPG styles and prefer them to the new matrix / anime theme FF games have taken on, theres less focus on how COOL the character looks and more focus on epic battles utilising shields and swords the way they were supposed to, I'd prefer to see when I hit or miss something rather then be given a big MISS in text.

I still want FF13, but it's strayed away from the knight battles I love, so whether or not it releases when FF does won't stop people from buying it

Also, the fact it is co-op campaign is a major bonus.

Just because FF13 is a big brand game doesn't mean people HAVE to buy it over WKC if they prefer WKC.

town building feature? hmmm... Maybe they are testing a new building engine for Dark Cloud 3. Or not its probably just in my head.

NO MORE MULTIPLAYER IN MY RPG'S AND STORY-BASED GAMES!!!! GRR....

For each multiplayer aspect allowed in such games, Joystiq and ALL OTHER game-industry based associations, companies, and what not will be FORCED to eat AWFUL FOOD, for a MONTH...

Think of the writers... think of the blue-collar!!!

why does it matter? if it's done in a good way, and doesn't affect single player, what the hell do you care? if anything, it's people who complain about online multiplayer who makes the "blue-collar" eat awful food for a month.

Because the multiplayer takes up space, space which the SP could add more content through, they also take up the budget.

Because people like me hate playing online, and from looking up at the article it says the town building will be online so the 5% interest I had in the game just went back to 0 because of that.

I will go back to my corner and continue waiting for a proper Dark Cloud 3.

um, okay? so some people hate online, some people (like me) can barely live without it. that's why i'm still at the beginning of the second island on infamous. because i need multiplayer action. can't we appease both kinds of people? tmac, if you're not interested in this game, why are you even discussing it with people who are sure they're purchasing it?

and assuming the single player is as complete as possible, and they added online as a bonus, then it's not taking anything away from single player.

Would normally agree, but Uncharted seems to be a good example of excellen coop / multiplayer to complement an already fabulous story-driven single-player game

and samik reminded me of another thing. the uncharted 2 multiplayer beta is SICK, and i remember you (referring to tmac) complaining about it when it was announced. if WNC multiplayer turns out as good as U2 multiplayer, then it'll be the best RPG on the PS3.

Just release the damn game already. It's been what 3 years since it's announcement? It released christmas last year in japan. Release the town building stuff as dlc. I'm tired of waiting. I didn't want to pick between Final Fantasy XIII and White Knight Chronicles. I'll pick FF XIII over WKC.

Maybe mosdt of their team has already moved on to Dark Cloud 3 or whatever they had planned? Still, over one year for localisation is too much, had hoped for Q4 2009 for this one

So many great news! All the new content should be great, plus I'm really glad they're planning to release it in Europe at the same time as in the US... we had to wait months for the other L5 games.

I don't know if the graphics just look weird, or I just feel into the Uncanny Valley.

Not a single one of you seems to be aware that this game sucked badly. Famitsu, which usually goes easy on JRPGs, gave it 29/40. The gameplay is BAD (I invite you to check out the gameplay videos) and the graphics are outdated (don't give me excuses; the PS3 can do much better than that). "I'm in it for the story!" The story is terrible as well. I won't spoil it, but even for videogame standards this has a bad story (plus it is also is incredibly generic). I know Level 5 can do good stuff, but this ain't it kids; move on.

Way to go Level 5, you fucking idiots. Put your ass right up next to FFXIII. Fucking brilliant.

If you're going to patch it in Japan, patch it in all regions at once and release the fucking game already! 6 months localization is too much. Over a year is just rediculous.

Well, I'm just glad that this is getting a NA release. I was starting to doubt it for a little while. I don't know why people are bitching about there being online play in addition to the story mode. It's not like you can't just play one or the other. Also, I'll look forward to picking WKC up and having FFXIII getting delayed again. And if not, then it's not like
