Ar Tonelico 3 Localization

http://scrawlfx.com/2010/05/ar-tonelico-3-localization-announcement-hits-july

I saw this on a Tales of forum I frequent, and I've been really wanting to play this game, so I'm stoked that it's getting localized

... you know, I was just about to post this XD

But yes, AT3 is coming over here! I just wonder if it's going to get censored due to the purge system.


Still trying to figure out the two others though. The one on the left looks like either classic dungeon, one of the Asagis, or Badman... but I think we already know about Badman so...

YAY! XD I hope they've tightened quality control since AT2!

Found out about this yesterday and squealed so hard.

That said, I'd like to put some hope that they won't censor the purge system since it's just girls (and guys too I guess) in their underwear. Underwear antics have been done in English games before, too. Though, if they don't censor it then chances are the rating will be bumped to a hefty M.

I don't think the big problem is stripping down to the underwear, it's having underage looking girls doing provocative poses while said stripping.

Ah, point I forgot about that. But again I have also heard of things similar-ish to that in English games that have been released without censors. Though, I would say I've seen said games but I've only heard about them through others who've played them so I have no idea how legit that fact is either I admit :(

But if they do have to censor it I don't think it'll be too hugely noticeable? Since if I remember right there's an option to not show the purge scenes in battle. Or my memory might be playing tricks on me again. Maybe I'm just being too optimistic, though :[a

That didn't stop Record of Agarest War from coming here.

Pffft, that game was one of the first to come to mind but I wasn't too sure if I should bring it up.

That game is probably worst with its fanservice then Ar Tonelico I figure XD

I was wondering when they'd get around to doing it. Its interesting that this year's press event is happening after Anime Expo.
