Sheesh that was a much longer chapter than I thought.  Enjoy Chapter 2, a bunch of it is exploring the 1002 overworld, hopefully the commentary keeps you interested.

Just looking these over, this chapter's footage proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that:

A. The game was near completion (for any of those tinfoil hat folks still left over)

B. The 98% beta is FAR more complete than the leaked alpha

hell yer >.< ive been playen that alpha and theres so much missing but still im so into it  and i can just see the missing bits in the vids up there so its kind of win/win

You should keep that to yourself. The dev team is not exactly happy that their work got leaked without their consent.

Heya, maybe to keep conversations centered at one place, do you think its better to update a single post and continue the thread from there?

(Or does the administration think it'd be better to update in separate threads so news can be made?)

Well, besides that, thanks for the videos and keep up the good work!! (I just can't wait for the final episode to be released... and for a news story that has a compilation of ALL the links :) !!)

EDIT--
Hey guys, by the end of it all, can you give us some statistics of viewership and users joined to the compendium and stuff? It'd be interesting, because stuff like this can really unite a fanbase ;) .

EDIT 2--
I was just wondering, was first battle with Dalton Plus unbeatable? (Magus in NewGame+ was getting 100HP dmgs, and I'm like whhhaatt?) Awesome cutscenes and commentary btw !!

You can beat him but it's the same outcome either way I believe, or atleast it better be, if not it's a bug :).

I'd like to make a new post for each video hoping people leave comments that are actually ....you know about the videos. A bunch of work went into the game and it's nice to actually see peoples reactions to each chapter.  What they liked/didn't like.  If we put all of these in one post it'll quickly become unmanagable. Z should be back so he can make the final decision.

I know that the youtube comments are kind of what I want but...well first and foremost I'd like to see what compendium member think.

EDIT: FW apparently I'm a youtube n00b can you set up the video responses correctly?

Once all the vids are done, why not make a playlist of all the episodes (and some of the trailers)?

Watched them over from 1 to 10.
The game just appears a way too professional. Those mini games in Choras make it more like an official release (there are too many rom hacks that only do some re-scripting and re-arrangement jobs ).

Gods, I remember the casino made it sooooooo easy to spam for moneys with save states...! *sigh* I feel like posting the comments I made as I was testing...!

Yeah, it's probably best that each update is kept separately so that people can comment on the specific scenes or commentary w/o the thread becoming gargantuan like JP said...

I almost feel bad for the people that started to play the "leak" thinking they had something even close to complete. :lol:

AH, this is great! Those kids playing Magus vs Glenn made my day. It was a nice touch!

The video responses just needed to be approved is all. They're all set up now.

Aye, that'd make watching these in succession a little more seamless.

Anyhow, brilliant stuff guys. Most of this seems familiar from the demo, but the commentary really helps liven the experience.

Playlist done. I guess we'll continue the video responses too. Now people have a ton of different options for continuity.

I'm liking the videos. It's like watching a movie as the story rolls on.
