The second(Sep. 20th)
- Is the background music whistling played by Kaneko-san?
Unfortunately, liking something and being good at it are two different things.
It would be a shame to ruin the beautiful music with my whistling, so I won’t intrude.- Will a cool middle-aged man appear in Armed Fantasia?
-
Everyone has different criteria for what a cool middle-aged man is. So I can’t promise anything, but I’ll do what I can. I’d also like to have a cool middle-aged woman show up in the game as well.
- Unlike Wild Arms, Armed Fantasia has characters with birthdays (in the calendar of this world?). Is this a factor in the story?
I can’t reveal the details, and I don’t have any plans to reveal it any time soon. But there definitely is a reason behind it.
But don’t think about it too hard. I’d be happy if you just celebrated the birthdays of the characters! (Voice: Girl whose birthday is unknown.)- Show me more characters!
We’d like to be allowed to show off more of the characters!
We plan on revealing the remaining three playable characters on 9/21 (12:00 PST). We hope you look forward to it!
As an aside, we set Alicia’s birthday to 9/22. So we really should’ve just revealed all the characters at the same time…- Are there any Anomalies in this game you’re really satisfied with? Or are they still a secret?
The design work isn’t over yet, so I think it’s a bit early to have a favorite. You want a lot of Anomalies, right? Enemies are one of the best parts of an RPG, so I definitely want there to be lots of them!
- If Armed Fantasia also has a secret boss like Ragu O Ragula from Wild ARMs, has Kaneko-san already decided on a name and setting for it?
I definitely want to have secret bosses. I want to have a lot of them!
The truth is, I’ve already got the setting and name all set in my head, and the design is already completed!
However, the setting for that Anomaly requires the world to be created first. So that’s what we’re working on first.
All that’s left is to put them in the game. So please support the campaign!- You said on the Discord that “whether or not the game will have an opening depends on Stretch Goals”. Can you tell us how much funding you need to make this a reality?
If you can’t, please tell me one of Kaneko Robot’s favorite sushi ingredients. Details regarding that are left up to the campaign team. So I can’t answer that. My apologies!
As an extra apology, I’ll tell you my favorite sushi toppings. I like sea urchin, salmon roe, and many others. And no matter how many times I’m asked, no, I don’t eat beetles.- Alicia’s favorite sport is basketball, but since she’s 5’3″ (which is a pretty normal height), why does she play Center (a role that normally requires a tall player)? Is she above average for Londenium women? Is it because she’s so powerful? Does she simply have a strong presence? I’m curious as to why you chose Center.
Regardless of amateur or pro, in the real world a Center needs height to win. But Alicia and the girls at the Order simply play for fun. That may be why she is good at that position.
It’s definitely not because I want to see Alicia in a uniform playing an active role under the net or anything (unconfident).
