FIRST LEAK OF THE TALES OF NEXUS BETA! Sneak a peek at the battle system and some of the first dungeon!
[If it doesn't load, YOUTUBE --> [link] ]



... No I'm completely lying BUT HNNNNNGH oh boy do I wish I wasn't. BUT IT LOOKS SOMEWHAT LEGIT, RIGHT? (AKA this is a Tales of series Mock-up/parody/whatever you want to call it… FOR NOW /stare)

Oh man though, you cannot even fathom how much I learned by doing this. Doing motion capture for not one, but two entities, having them flow together with correct timing, fixing up glitches in the motion data/cleaning for smoother motion/adding animation to nonmoving parts, doing game angles and fight scenes, and most significantly VIDEO EDITINGGG. That's what REALLY brought it all together (not to mention the editing took twice as long as the creation of the actual footage did...). I underestimated how many elements contributed to the entirety of a Tales-style battle scene XD oh boy, just wait until I start doing later battles...

So we have LEVINE (belonging to ~midorishina) versus a SEA-TYPE CREATURE IN A FOREST... (~amiamy111, who the stage also belongs to)(IT WAS ALL I COULD FIND ON SHORT NOTICE WITH BONES). Basically supposed to be a REALLY early scene in the game--I'm talking first dungeon, first few battles, one arte, player-still-learning-controls early.

ALSO 8D that awesome soundtrack? ~lurehu's . Neither of the pieces used are actually for the purpose I stuck them as BUT. I... made due with what I had access to? XD

AND UH--yeah I... did the... voicing... MY VOICE =/= LEVINE. I TRIED TO SPEAK AS DEEPLY AS I COULD (which took away the quality of the VAing somewhat) AND THEN I EDITED MY VOICE TO MAKE IT DEEPER BUT IT STILL DOESN'T FIT. AT LEAST NOT IN MY HEAD. But it needed voice and so I delivered XD

Overall this was IMMENSELY FUN and now I have templates for everything; I definitely plan to do this again in the future [Near? Far? I dunno], but with a larger party, throwing in some artes, perhaps more enemies and a bit more out-of-battle scenes with dialogue. Also, for the record, one of the most fun parts was the fact that I got to be the controller xD
