Sorcery Blade: so ugly it's cute
Teasing the December 16th release of their WiiWare RPG Sorcery Blade, Kemco released a few new screenshots. To be perfectly honest, the new screens look quite junky! But in some kind of nostalgic, PS1/N64 blurry-texture sort of way that we find charming.
Were this a full-price retail title, we'd be skewering it mercilessly, but $10 is a massive bargain for a new RPG, so the fuzzy walls and oversimplistic character models are merely endearing. Speaking of character models, check out the totally mismatched NPCs, featuring Mii heads on realistically-proportioned bodies.
Really, if there's anything at all to the timing-based combat, we could foresee having a great time with Sorcery Blade. That is, if Kemco decided to go to the trouble of translating it. A cheap WiiWare RPG is infinitely more interesting than a flood of color-matching puzzle games.
