The Witch and the Hundred Knight

[Greek God]

This week’s Dengeki brings news of Nippon Ichi’s The Witch and the Hundred Knights, which was originally slated for release in June 2012 but was delayed for further development.

The Witch and the Hundred Knights is an action RPG. You use “Giga Calories” in the game to perform special attacks, and you can replenish Giga Calories by eating enemies. The game also has a Tactical Conversion System by which you can equip up to five weapons and choose what order they attack in. The weapons you have at the end are more powerful.

Other tools available to you in combat are the Mystical Dodge—where time slows down and you evade at the last second—and the Extra Chain, where defeating an enemy with one crushing blow will teleport you to the nearest enemy to continue your attack. You also have a power called Chaos Liberation that temporarily buffs your character.


Nippon Ichi also address the topic of the game’s delay. Development on The Witch and the Hundred Knights began three years ago, while it was expected to be complete in one or one-and-a-half years, the game had piles of issues.

NIS say they didn’t want the graphics or visuals of The Witch and the Hundred Knights to look inferior to other titles. There was talk about making it an open world game, but instead NIS chose to focus on the 3D graphics technology. The development studio has been working on the action part of the game and reducing load times. It sounds like the open-world elements are gone.


Since this is a game from the makers of Rhapsody and Disgaea, it is a story-based game. The Witch and the Hundred Knights is like an adult fairy tale. The story has a “harsh” taste and the drama centres on fellow characters.


The Witch and the Hundred Knights is slated for release on July 25th on the PlayStation 3.

Das schaut wirklich nicht Schlecht es. Ich denke, werde es mir holen sobald es in den Staaten oder bei uns in Europa erscheint holen.

Hätte wieder mal Bock auf ein richtig cooles JRPG.

Erster Trailer

Die Musik erinnert zu sehr an Disgaea imo aber kein biggie.
Ganz schön blutig sogar, hab ich so gar nicht erwartet bei dem Artstyle xD

25.07.2013 Release in Japan also denke mal ähnlich wie Disgaea D2 Fall 2013 bei uns.

The Witch and the Hundred Knights coming to Europe in 2014

The Witch and the Hundred Knights will be released in Europe during spring 2014, Nippon Ichi Software has announced. The game lands on PS3 in Japan next month. The game was announced in March 2012 and was expected in the west sometime this year. Better late than never, I suppose. With the European release window outed, we expect to the North American release around the same time. We’ll ask just in case.

Nippon Ichi Software just announced that today its new PS3 exclusive action JRPG The Witch and the Hundred Knights (released in Japan on July the 25th) will get an update patch to introduce a new level of difficulty called “Casual Mode”.
Players can freely switch between Casual Mode and Normal Mode by talking to an NPC. In Casual Mode enemies will see their defense and strength reduced, and will deal less damage to the player.
Since the mode doesn’t affect the story, it’s designed to allow those that aren’t used to action RPGs to enjoy the plot without meeting an untimely end too often

Below you can see a couple new screenshots sent by Nippon Ichi, showcasing the NPC used to set the challenge mode and Hundred Knights dropping a boss easy thanks to the new Casual Mode.

Also wars zu schwer für die Masse...

 

[Greek God]

Also ich werde ganz sicher nicht auf easy anfangen

 

[FlyingUberHuzo]

Ist mir endlich aufgefallen, dass das Spiel 2014 rauskommt... schade, ist zu spät für mich, da ich keine PS3 mehr haben und eher mit der PS4 zocken werde.

Dengeki PlayStation has an interview with Nippon Ichi Software who said retailers reordered The Witch and the Hundred Knight, one of the company’s new IPs. The publisher wants to grow this into a series if there is a positive response.

Moving forward, Nippon Ichi wants to have a balance between developing new series, like The Witch and the Hundred Knight or The Guided Fate Paradox, and sequels. PlayStation 3 is still their core platform, but the company plans to mix in Vita and PlayStation 4 releases. Since Nippon Ichi has many titles that sell well overseas, they will take which hardware overseas gamers play on into consideration too.

The Witch and the Hundred Knight came out on July 25 and over the past few months Nippon Ichi polished the game post release with patches. A new update adds a sort function in the store which should make it easier to buy and sell stuff.



Another useful change shows pillars on the mini-map and other icons have been added as well. The Witch and the Hundred Knight has a Bayonetta-like dodge system where you slow time if you evade an attack right before being hit. The patch fine tunes the Mystical Dodge and adjusts the invincibility time after you land an attack. Also, when an NPC is in despair status you can get 1.5x the amount of experience points.



And when you beat The Witch and the Hundred Knight the game keeps your Stock Stomach configuration instead of resetting it. Players use the Stock Stomach to develop the Hundred Knight’s stats and abilities.



These changes should be in the Western version of The Witch and the Hundred Knight which comes over here in March 2014.
