I really hope the soundtrack will sound even better with the remaster.

Last bit is just saying you can marry anyone who is your ally, "The “Terminal Disc” video collection included with the PS2 version of .hack//G.U. Vol 1 is included with .hack//G.U. Last Recode. By progressing through the game’s story, you will get to see digest movies and backstories from .hack//, which preceded .hack//G.U.," and that the next update will include on Haseo's New Form.

Reminder you don't have to play IMOQ to enjoy GU

>>381719037
Man, I want just sit on the faux deskstop and listen to that sweet BGM.

So I think we might be getting new ingame character models. Hopefully we get HD textures of the environments too. I really want to see some actual gameplay.

>>381719751
I will say it's looking pretty so far

>>381719203

Yeah the game is fun either way although it's better if you have played the IMOQ.

Also for anybody who is going to play this that hasn't already, it's not necessary but you might enjoy the game better if you watch .hack Roots anime before playing the game.


>>381719751

More Dungeon types would be good too

>>381719037

The soundtrack was great anyway so if it sounds even better I will literally jizz my pants

>>381719009

I get adding the retry feature however not really sure why they're making the game easier, it really wasn't hard to begin with.

Also dual audio was confirmed on German Bamco's twitter.

>I get adding the retry feature however not really sure why they're making the game easier, it really wasn't hard to begin with.
I guess they feel in the event that you die, it's a little outdated to throw you all the way back to the title screen, but I feel you. You can count the "hard" fights on one hand, and those were probably only hard because one was new to the series or wasn't properly leveled, no healer, etc

>>381720638
Now I get to hear Haseo rage in Nipponese, awesome (no sarcasm)

>>381720607
I remember seeing something in one of the other threads about a playable prequel being added, im assuming that would cover the plot points for Roots, and hopefully do them better.

>>381721152

That would be really cool if that's the case.

>>381720964

I worded my sentence wrong sorry. I agree with the retry feature because getting thrown back to the title screen is archaic by modern standards (having to compete with everything else for attention). My point was mostly about the damage being reduced and difficulty stuff, etc. Either way, looking forward to the game completely

>>381721152
Yeah I remember that thread, but there was disagreement as to whether that meant we were getting a playable prequel, or if it was just referring to Haseo's time as the ToD.

>>381721394
I see, no worries

>>381721394
"New beginnings – Set in 2017, return to “The World” and play through the G.U. series as Haseo, as he hunts Player Killers and track down Tri-Edge in order to save his friend, Shino."
That's what was listed on the offical site. But it seems like it was just an interpretation. They could be implying they added a new intro chapter where you play as Edgelord PKK Haseo, or it could just be a lose description of the plot of the game.

Sounds like they're going to be making it a fair bit easier. The game was already incredibly easy (still fun though)

>>381722125
That's basically what the plot of the games is about.

The g.u. remaster inspired me to play IMOQ again. I'm surprised how good some of the models look when upscaled to 5 or 6x native resolution. Also I forgot, is there a reason to data drain normal foes besides virus cores?

>>381725180
you need a fuckload virus cores though
Also drop the items in the spring well and hope for the best

>>381725180
I have a dilemma.

I only have a physical copy of Infection on PS2 but I'm fine with emulating. There is a save from man years ago at level 32 with god knows what's on me. Should I download a save for Infection then move onto Mutation rather than replay Infection on my PC?

>>381725869
If you're really against playing infection again, I'd say go ahead and download a 100% save for infection. I don't think there's anything too busted in infection anyway.

Not sure how I feel about hitstun reduction. I fucking love hitstun.
Not sure how I feel about making an easy game even easier either but I can always make up some self-imposed challenges, no biggie.
