To the excitement of everybody who purchased Etrian Odyssey and head-scratching of everyone who skipped it, Atlus will publish Etrian Odyssey II: Heroes of Lagaard in North America. We get the DS dungeon exploring RPG on June 17.
What makes Etrian Odyssey awesome? The Wizardary-like feel. The challenge of touch screen cartography. The Troubadour class? Etrian Odyssey II: Heroes of Lagaard bumps the total number of classes to twelve by adding new options like Gunners. The plot has you leave home to find the Grail of Kings from a floating palace, but you can stray from your mission by tackling one of the 100+ side quests.
I am _incredibly_ excited, I spent around 40 hours on the original. Hope they improved the mapping a bit though, towards the end I didn’t bother with it anymore. Best news all day!
w00t. Loved the first one, so I’m definitely going to get this.
Now to bother Atlus about bringing Elminage over! =D
Well, this release date makes me really happy ^^ (ttora import it!)
That i hope is this time, they put a clock to know how manay hours did you play ! I want to know how many hours spent with this one T_T
Hell yeah! I’m currently playing the 1st one still, but I’m excited for the new classes.
Oh, the first one hurt so good. Maybe I’m bad at organizing a balanced party. Still, this game is classic dungeon-crawling at its graph paper and pen finest. Will definitely support the sequel and, unsurprisingly, Atlus.
It’s amazing how many titles Atlus is putting out in such a short time frame. They’re much bigger than they were in the past.
@ttora: the fact that it had never been released here in europe completely missed me. I bought my copy in canada when I was on vacation there, simply because the prices are much lower over there ^-^
Didn’t know there was a second game! that probably means I should finaly get myself to finish the game sometime soon…
