2017 is the 15th anniversary since the release of .hack and the 10th anniversary since the release of G.U., as well as the year G.U. is set. In order to commemorate that, we thought to reboot the series. This is a remaster rather than a new work because we want introduce the younger generation to .hack since it has been so long. As for the new elements, you will be able to meet a “Haseo” you “don’t know.” Since it’s the 15th anniversary of .hack, there are also other projects moving along.
>Since it’s the 15th anniversary of .hack, there are also other projects moving along. Excellent news, GU sucked so I'm more interested in this. No more mobile games please.
Eli Jones
This is great, I loved G.U. Any possibility for an english version? We never got Link or the movie.
Nathaniel Hall
>All these casualization features >It's a remake of sign, not even the original
Dylan Edwards
Never played any of these, is it something worth getting into?
Easton Bennett
>No more mobile games please. That's not CC2's call. The only real reason they only did phone games for so long is because those are all Bamco wanted.
And we'll never get them because Link was panned and the movie was mediocre.
Connor Lee
//Link was fanfiction tier, you're not missing out on much.
MC was literally the worst kind of self insert faggot you can imagine. Haseo is gay, but Tokio was a fucking faggot. Saika or whatever her name was had nothing on Blackrose or Atoli either.
Pretty sure it's being retconned.
Henry Hill
>PC
YES YES YES YES YES YES
Carson Bell
>remake of //sign What. The only thing thing casulizing it is the increase in EXP which is totally unneeded, and nerfing certain enemies, whatever that means. That being said I distinctly remember certain optional bossfights before insanely drawn out, but they weren't hard. You just had to keep getting rengeki over and over, doing no damage, and then using awakening to actually hurt them. The rest of the changes are QoL and amazing.
Ian Rivera
>Japan only
Why even bother making threads?
Gabriel Lee
They'll probably/hopefully remake IMOQ if this does well.
Dylan Diaz
There's the multipart .hack series and then the .hack// series
Christian Turner
We're almost certainly getting a NA release since it was announced for PC. PC is not a market in Japan that exists in any way shape or form.
Noah Price
Both series of games were multipart. //Sign was an anime. I have no idea what you're fucking on about.
Justin Peterson
Can we get a remake of the original games instead?
Joshua Brooks
I literally said series twice, this is a remake of exclusively the second multipart series, .hack// (pronounced as dot hack sign based on the source material). If there's something you don't understand please ask so I can explain it to you
Jacob Martin
>PC is not a market in Japan that exists in any way shape or form.
Think again newfag.
Thomas Howard
>.hack// (pronounced as dot hack sign based on the source material) but that's wrong
Jack Butler
>dot hack forward slash forward slash Nice to know that you and your friends are autists then
Christian King
...
Ayden Myers
Sign is the anime, dude.
Gabriel Flores
.hack//SIGN is a show.
The original games were just called .hack ("dot hack"). The animated series that serves as a prequel to the games was .hack//SIGN ("dot hack sign"). The sequel games is collectively .hack//G.U. ("dot hack gee you"). And the game for the PSP is called .hack//Link ("shit").
Logan Price
Have you never heard of a stylized title before
Jace Scott
>And the game for the PSP is called .hack//Link ("shit").
Benjamin Johnson
What game are they playing? It looks like a flight simulator?
Grayson Hill
World of Warships.
Japs are crazy about it and World of Tanks.
Alexander Ortiz
Why are they so ugly?
Ryan Robinson
Hi!
Gabriel Lee
>That awful UI What the fuck is this, a fan game?
William Barnes
>I just wanted IMOQ.
I talked with people on stream as I was playing Infection like a week ago about HD remakes and how I'd spend my unemployed savings on IMOQ HD. I'm glad they're continuing .Hack, but dammit, start at the beginning!
I thought that was never released in English. Patched custom game?
Nicholas Ortiz
What the fuck the screenshot on that page has a different UI
Brody Richardson
coldbird project but is over
Cameron Nelson
>replaying IMOQ due to announcement >level 7 >need to meet Mia >getting fucked stomped by everything
Christian Collins
Grind to at least level 10 before meeting her in the dungeon and grab a ton of earth/lightning spells and healing potions/fairy wire. Go level Blackrose and Mistral on a level 4 area + dungeon then a level 6 and you'll be set
>I just did this a few days ago >I died two times before researching
Shit, thanks user. I just went to a level 6 zone with them to try and grind up, Mistral was getting one shot and the enemies were out healing our damage.
I can't believe 10 year old me beat this shit.
Nicholas Cruz
yes and yes
Jaxson Moore
Hack G.U was one of my favorite PS games. I am looking forward to this. Thanks for the heads up user, papa bless.
James Lewis
Talk to Mistral. She has a weapon called Sotetsu, which is the strongest Twin Blade weapon you can get at that point in the game. Trade for it.
There. Now you break everything.
Lincoln Gray
>Haseo with an unfamiliar look appears… B-st form? Novel form? Other new form?
Aaron Murphy
>"Unfamiliar look" >List a bunch of familiar looks
Anthony Thompson
ITS BEEN 3000 YEARS
Eli Collins
Unfamiliar to the games
Brandon Allen
Hoping it's his prototype costume, though maybe It's Sora, or a Kite skin or something.
Dominic Richardson
>sonic the hedgehog faggotry
Jaxson Anderson
Maybe an Azure Haseo boss fight.
Jose Young
Fragment was kinda fun
Andrew Ross
you don't like videogames?
Kevin Morales
>Fragments of Aura ended up making an Azure Sora that Haseo has to fight to show he's grown from being that type of person and to at last face himself Honestly the only thing the entire Azura angle was missing, but I could understand why they didn't do that in the first retelling of the games given there was only 3 legit azure knights. Yet the fact that there wasn't fragment Sora data to kinda make for one last inner battle always had me disappointed in Haseo's growth.
Wyatt Jackson
What are the chances of IMOQ being remastered?
Jordan Ramirez
Chances are depends on how well G.U. does? Honestly trimming down some of the fat would be nice. Being able to use the remastered IMOQ to ensure Mia carry's over to G.U. legit though would be the truest happy ending.
