Uhm, i didn't explain myself. I don't know if someone has already said this (94 pages are too many to read) but Europe (i'm referring to europe only because i live there) isn't Japan, where Basara is well known and there is a pretty huge fan community that is waiting for this game not only for the gameplay, but also for the VA, the artworks, the soundtrack and much other things. What i want to say is that in Japan SB is known enough to be collected, but in Europe, unless Capcom waits for the anime, SB is for a niche market, the same market already taken by Koei, and the Warriors' games have a bad reputation, and i don't want to talk about DK's reputation.
Oh, and why i should buy a game (and spend 70 euros) when there will be an upgrade in few monts (and spend other 70 euros for something already present in the original), besides helping to raise the sales so Capcom can think that convert SB3H is good? I'm not fine with expansion, and i don't think that milking a new brand (as Basara in Europe) is appropriate. It would be different if they release the two games (SB3+SB3H) in the same disc, or releasing the extras as DLC, with no need of shipment and no costs.
:lol: thats all down to marketing HnB can explain it more but it's all about being at the right place at the right time...

I live in london and i know the gaming community will be open to basara you just have to rub them the right way (same with any game really) and since this is capcom the people the brought us DMC and Resident evil people are even more likely to listen...

so if capcoms marketing plan are set right they should have no problems what they shouldn't do is wait for the anime half of the cast wont even be in the game or compare themselfs to koei (the people can do that for themselfs) if anything this is bad for koei this is basara's debut and its this good, KOEI'S going to have to start answering alot of question or making plans they've tryed there hardest to avoid until now.

Attack the convension first, London - manchester - leeds - birmingham... then take it to the social networking sites (facebook, deveant art) you get my drift (I hope lol) if its money their worried about then they should concentrate on slow but strong movements

my point is basara hasn't got a fan base in europe yet, but its a great game I have no doubt they wont be able to build one ^_^

Her facial features are pretty cartoonish here, with her forehead very tall, her lips very small and set up too high and over all, all of her features are squashed together in the center of her face. It doesn't help that she has big, wide hair which makes her face look taller and wider than it already does. I think she might actually be completely out of proportion.
Sorry to bring this back up again, especially since I said I wasn't going to discuss it, but now that I think about it, perhaps Mago's face is supposed to represent Tsuchi's official art. Take this piece of Hisahide for example. Tsuchi normally draws the faces pretty central and "squashed" together, and if you take a gander back at the Mago shots, its almost identical. Now, I know its pretty bad saying Mago looks like Hisahide, but he draws most of his males with this kind of face and the females normally have larger eyes, smaller chins and such. So I wouldn't say its "out of proportion"... I reckon its just imitating Tsuchi's art of her.

seralpha: Well, yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone would have prefered it if Capcom got it right on the first shot and didn't have to fork out extra money for things that should have been included in the original, but its not like BASARA's the first game to do it. Its what companys have been doing for a while now, its a way to earn more cash, and if your a fan of the series, your likely to buy it. Street Fighter did it, the Warriors series did it, so theres no point complaining about it now.

About BASARA not being as well known over seas, well, that all boils down to the marketing discussion we had. The anime is probably going to garner some new comers and if they actually attempt to market it, such as giving us trailers, demos and advertise it, then it won't do as bad as DK, which recieved no advertisment at all, IIRC.

DK: If your haunting Kobayashi, count me in. I need to "persuade" him to make Kanetsugu playable in up-coming installments :hehe:

So I'm guessing Capcom hasn't/won't say anything about the content of the Jump Festa demo, correct?

Best case scenario(s): it gets put up on PSN on the 24th (same day as Keiji's voice clip?) or maybe on Jan.1st.
Dare to dream, men. Dare to dream.

(Also a tad distressed over the NPC announcement, especially since the site screens show a lot of work went into the new models for them :( )

I'm glad the release date is in Summer, though. There are so many new games coming in just the next 3 months I'm excited for, and I haven't even beaten half the games I bought recently.

QFT. I ain't much of a fan on relying on the anime to "spread the love". I'm not sure how it's like in Japan, but here in America, even though there are a lot of anime fans, they're still a minority, and focusing on a minority is bad for business. Plus, IMO, a big number of said fans probably only follow the incredible popular animes like Naruto or Bleach, so this'll be off their radar. And Capcom comparing itself to KOEI will doom them. KOEI's tactic of releasing sequels and expansions that really don't differ much from each other has given foreigners a bad impression of the Warriors series, KOEI themselves, and the entire hack-n-slash genre. Making such a comparison will be an anchor that'll make SB3 sink. -_-

And you're lucky that it seems like Europe's at least willing to give this a try. As I've said before, America's a lot more hostile towards hack-n-slashes because of the Warriors series. They might spit it back at Japan before it hits shelves, or, since this is Capcom, creator of classics like DMC, SF, and RE, they might give it a try. I really can't lie and say that SB3 will or will not go smoothly here.

Manga/Anime fans are not a minority, 40% of books checked out of libraries are manga books. ^_^ ANime is pretty popular, its not massive HUGE! But The anime will definitely attract a few people.

And even though the WArrior series has a bad rep, THEY SELL! Their sales are pretty high, and its not just poeple on the forums, like the fans, even those who bash will probably buy it anyway, even though they don't like it. And Those intense bashers are always looking for games to bash, but it doesn't take long to realise that Basara isn't a game you bash, its a game you play. The responses i've seen to the trailers and gameplay vids were pretty solid too. People were saying it looke like DW but 10X better, and that they're buying it. Plus its coming out near christmas (In NA at least) so that helps too.

REviewers may want to bash but they can't hate what they like, and i have a good feeling Basara will do good in the eyes of the reviewers, at least an 8.

I'm not worried about the localisation, one look at Sengoku Basara 3 and you knwo its not a DW clone. ;)

Again, this all depends on Capcom's marketing strategy. If they try and compare BASARA to the Warriors series, without doing anything to show how their series has its own ass to shake? Then well, that's their bad. And fundamentally, it'd be JUST as bad as the whole "Devil Kings" thing back in the day, only possibly worse.

Please.

America is NOT as hostile to hack-n-slash as you may think. God of War being as much of a success as it is, should do a lot to disprove that very notion. And even the likes of Capcom's own Devil May Cry and Tecmo's Ninja Gaiden still hold it down, even though their demographic is quite smaller, and more intricate in nature. Another Capcom series, "Dead Rising", is another entrant that has quickly shot up the ranks of the Capcom pantheon, and it too, boils down to being another type of hack-n-slash.

Really and truly, it's only the "Musou" games that suffer some thing when it comes to Americans. But I would be willing to bet it's the "sheep-like" mentality, which comes from the mainstream video game media, and its supporters, that preachtheir rendition on how "evil" the Musou games are. And the masses that can't think for themselves give into whatever they state. Yet, the games still sell well enough, though! :hehe:

...Yet, on the other hand, look at how some people changed their tune when Hokuto Musou showed its face months ago. People were eagerly saying such things like "The first Musou game I care about!!!!" and all that. All it took was for Hokuto Musou to look to be something new, exciting and unto itself, for it to be able to do more to stand apart from the various iterations and spin offs of the franchise. And that's a game from the same "company", no less.

I'd like to think that Capcom, who, if nothing else, were able to sell the likes of Devil May Cry and Dead Rising to fickle-minded Westerners, could certainly do the same for BASARA, too.

The main thing should be to try and propose SB3 as another "stylish action" game. Shouldn't be hard to do, since you got aforementioned examples that sold quite well, and Capcom's a brand that most are willing to trust. Showcase how the game has a "style" that Koei's Samurai Warriors can't hope to match. And for Wii owners, especially, who don't stand to get Devil May Cry any time soon? This could really be a nice answer to those who want a good, hardboiled, over-the-top action game in their library. After all, what's the competition? Samurai Warriors 3, Zangeki no REGINLEIV ( <3 ) and maybe Metroid Other M. Not that extensive a menu for Wii-only owners. BASARA could stand to slide in right nicely.

But again though, I and the other ride-or-die's that make up Capcom's English-speaking BASARA down-asses, can't champion a cause that Capcom themselves is not willing to invest in. So, I am really interested in seeing just how Capcom tries to sell BASARA this time around. It really will be likely a thing that they'll reap what they sow again...

:OMG: :crazy: Aw ****. I see what I did there. My bad, I didn't see that at first. What I had meant to say was that Americans are very hostile towards the Warriors series, and prejudice from reviewers and audiences due to pre-made comparisons could get SB3 screwed. Sorry to sound like a dumbass there. ^_^

It's funny, how things go here; people rage so much about the "sheeple" of the US government, yet don't recognize, or may even be, the "sheeple" of media and media reviewers. I have seen many people take the numerical system of IGN, Gametrailers, and other review companies far too greatly. I don't have any personal experience (me and my friends aren't that brain-dead), but I know it happens. Sux as much as you think.

I'm sorry if I've been sounding like the pessimist this whole time. Man, I just can't explain the anti-KOEI hostility anymore. Is it because of bad gameplay? Too much history? Prejudicial hatred? Not "upping the ante" with each installment? What has KOEI done wrong? And what can Capcom do to avoid such a fate? You guys all got your answers, but what's Capcom's answer.

Honestly? It's more than likely just a thing of it being an "easy target". Everybody likes an easy scapegoat that can have the hater-ade poured on, collectively. :hehe:

Like I've said before, what's going on with the Musou series now, is no different from how the likes of Mega Man and various other "descent with not-so-much modification" game series (barring EA Sports franchises) have received in the past.

Fundamentally, there's nothing really that "wrong" with the Musou series. But it does exist outside of the Western casual mainstream's focus and tastes, and thus, gets shunned, as a result. It'll be interesting to see if any of the 3 new comers (Troy, Hokuto and TRINITY: Zill O'll) may chance something, since they are possibly the most interesting things that have been done with the Musou brand in ages...

I been waiting for it because me and a group of friends want to basically buy every BASARA related release that comes to America to help show that there IS a supporting fanbase here so we get future games in the series too, lol. From the moment I heard about the US release of SB3 I think I got at least 5 people who are going to buy the game day one, a few even getting ps3s so we can do online co-op together.

Indeed. The Musou series gets picked on it's the "cool" thing to do.

Stupid X-Play and their "tastes" don't help one bit...it's unfortunate really. :(

:blink: to be honest I think you've ansered both your questions HnB & Watchtower the warriors series isn't bad, but there is something Major missing from it and when watchtower mention "Not "upping the ante" with each installment?" and when HnB said "it does exist outside of the Western casual mainstream's focus and tastes" thats the problem and to be honest its kinda sad because the only people Koei are satisfying are themselfs I was a HUGE!!!!!!! musou fan but going on Watchtower's quote i've dropped out Untill they come up with something new.
Me being a SW fan more than a DW and then forcing me to buy another console to play SM3 (which is not as good as DW6) the Franchise that strong enough for me to go all the way for it unlike MGS, tekken, resident evil etc.

and HnB point, alot of westerns aren't interest about Asian history (but you do get fans like are selfs that are) and when they see a title such as Koei's Warrior series they expect to see something gameplay wise that can hold em off other wise, and since it's based on Asian history that one deciding factor would be :blink: Martial Arts! :blink: but because the game cuts corners it doesn't look as well as it should (untill DW6 but i'm not going to even count the amount of SW & DW Warrior games before DW6) and people know this because they've seen Kung Fu movies, they've played fighting games and other hack N' slashes like DMC and Ninja Gaiden etc.

And most of the hate comes from them doing things with half the effort (Unitll now that is) and them still being around and most of the haters i've spoken to HAVE played DW before but feel "Thats all they know" and embassingly I lose the arguement quite quickly when they mention the amount of musou games outside of the asian history franchise (and personally they should stop the gundam series was a stretch to far)

Its only with DW6 going down the line to Hokuto Musou and all the other next generation games that are soon to be released by Koei are only now starting to realise what western fans pay attention to, but this is something Koei could of avoided if they just put in the effort.

One of Disney's last animators (richard williams) said "There are to different types of animators.. hard thinkers and lazy bastards" -_-

I've with Capcom AND NOT JUST BECAUSE OF BASARA YOU PEOPLE MUST NO THAT LOL
but because they have MANY different people in their company passionate about ONE subject COMPUTER GAMES and when you play games such as:

Resident evil
Lost planet
Street fighter
Dead Rising
DMC
Mega man
Onimusha
breath of fire
Sengoku basara

then you know what I mean :)

I mostly agree, but...the analogy asian history = martial arts made me chuckle.

Anyway...I'm going slightly OT here, but I noticed a possible reference playing MH3...

One of the gestures you can make is "insult" which has you spit at the opponent (If I am not wrong). And there's an ability you can acquire that powers up your "Insult" gesture...


Now this is probably a coincidence, but honestly I can't think of any other games where a character spits at another as a taunt...can you guys help me?

Either way, it'd be nice if this was true...

Nah, I haven't heard anything either. They're most likely recording the dubs now, and probably won't give any info until they've finished the first season.

IIRC one of the SNK characters spits when they taunt,but that may be false

and speaking of MH,yoshihiro is the result of hard training of using MH greatswords,too bad you can't snipe/roll cancel with the jigenryuu dangan>.<

that,and they should add SB weapons&armors to MH for cameo purposes(come on,huge axes,huge nodachis,electric greatswords,drill lance,laser blade+shield?all useable with MH's moveset>.<)

Unfortunately, I was wrong about that, since the "taunt" gesture has the character shadow boxing...but whatever...

Yoshihiro's swords would be perfect for some new great swords...they fit right in.

I was surprised at the lack of cameo weapons in that game, the only things they have is that lightning blade made with Dengeki.....


Oh well, going back on topic...

The demo days are coming soon. If the people going gather enough info, we'll have stuff to discuss for days...let's hope it hits PSN too! (and if it was possible to cheat other chars in it like the Dissidia demo...that'd be just awesome)

Oh, SB3 (PS3 only?) demo is coming out soon?

Can anyone here give us a rundown of how to get a Japanese PSN?

And what about the Wii, any way to get a demo on that? :/

No, no.

Nothing´s sure for now. No one can predict Kobayashi and Co.

For now it´s stated that there will be a playable version of Sengoku BASARA 3 (PS3/Wii) at the Jump Festa event that´ll held on the 19th/20th December 2009.

NDY will go there and maybe some others too and "test" the game for us. We´re still in the dark, if they´ll finally release the demo for PSN or even for both systems.

It´s unfair that only people who have "access" to the jump festa event can play BASARA 3 and all the other fans out there die dry with the info droughts of Kobayashi´s strange mind. :mellow:

Well the only thing we can do for now is hope, wait for NDY´s "report" and look on youtube if there are some recorded footages and previews of japanese game magazines on it.

Its not unfair, thats the point of these events is to show how much you got to gain the most attention. This stuff happens all the time, their are events and shows and conventions where companies have to strut their stuff, its natural to see demos at them. Kobayashi doesn't choose where Jump Festa is, he just brings as much to the table that he can. Whether it takes place in Japan or the Netherlands. :mellow:

It makes most sense to have the demo available at Jump Festa or any game event in Japan, why would he have a demo at a Europian or North American game event? Especially at this stage. No, having the demo now is a smart idea.

What i would consider unfair would be withholding the demo and not releasing it on PSN. It wouldn't surprise me, i would be disapointed, just not surprised.

We don't know yet. Chances are, it'll be updated into the info thread.

Site updated.

As we´ve allready known, it contains Magoichi´s voice + pics of her skills/BASARA and Yukimura´s video.

But damn...Magoichi gets more and more awesome. Her voice is excellent, as expected of the one who voiced Silveria from Valkyria Chronicles and Erza from Fairy Tail.

Also the pic of her BASARA were she glows red and holds two machine guns like rambo...I really want to see her BASARA :cool:

^ That isn't new.

Anyways. Mago looks like she'll be a super fun character to play as if her screens are any indication. Definitely looking forward to her a lot. Though I'm not going to lie, her voice is kinda...iffy. It sounds really good during the calm parts of her speech, but there's something about it when she starts to yell that just...I dunno, it's almost a little too manly? I understand that that was probably the direction her seiyuu was told to go in but there's something about it that just seems a little off. But eh, no big deal in the end. I'm sure it'll grow on me.
