New Folklore trailer continues to say "pah!" to drab colors
Not only does the above trailer give us a fantastic glimpse into the story behind the most mysterious Monster Kingdom Folkssoul Folklore, but it gives us an insane Japanese intro song! The trailer is long -- a bit over three and a half minutes, but it shows off lots of footage we've never seen.
Personally, I'm not sold on the voice acting yet, but it could be a lot worse. What I am sold on, however, are the graphics, gameplay, and artistic direction the game is taking. Some of the other Netherworld-like creatures speaking to the main characters seem like designs ripped right out of the minds of Jim Henson and Neil Gaiman -- imagine a mix between the classic Labyrinth and the oddly satisfying Mirrormask. I'm pumped. This game is a must buy, if you're into the Japanese side of gaming.
[Thanks a lot, UltimaMasamune!]
