Rance 8 development preliminary screen shots just got released today on Alicesoft's official page.

http://www.alicesoft.com/special/rancecpp/index.html

So far just 3D graphics of the monsters, but at least we know Rance 8 development is out of hiatus!

No news on development on Daiteikoku other than the entire system being overhauled.
But if some of the core staff went back to working on Rance 8, most likely Daiteikoku is finishing development, and is probably heading to debug stage soon.

Man, TADA is a busy man.

in Kichikuou: The Kalar (girls) kidnap men that wander into their village and hold them prisoner for the purpose of extracting their sperm so that they can get pregnant and continue to survive as a race

so basically as long as it follows even only just a bit of what happened in Kichikuou, his sperm will be used to impregnate bitches anyway

wether he knocks up Pastel or not is up in the air and only time will tell

There's no evidence whatsoever that Daiteikoku was canceled. It's still in production for all we know.

So in other words, small bits of info for Daiteikoku could come at any time but major announcements like the creation of official page don't hold your breath till late August-September.

Just hope Rance isn't going to stop becoming a serial rapist.

Rance will always have sex, one way or the other.
Whether it's rape or not, depends on the silly woman.

>You fuckers are the noobs thinking they'll release info half an year early. THEY NEVER DO.
What part of that do you not understand????????
Yeah, they didn't released a trailer last december. In fact it's not included in Alice2010.

>Besides, they already SAID it's Winter 2010.
No, they said it was SUMMER. But they had to delay it for some reason.

As far as I know we haven't gotten any info.
We know that they started to remake Daiteikoku, but do we have any information on exactly what they have changed? And to what end?

I wonder what made them motivated to overhaul their old work.

I read somewhere that it was the battle system that was remade from scratch.

>> No.5555978

>>5555945
Is that so?

I hope I won't be dissapointed.
In the old teaser trailed it looked as if it would involve some kind of realtime and or strategy like gameplay.
I don't really have anything against turnbased gameplay, I think it worked well for the other Dai games and Sengoku/Kichikuou, I was on the other hand interested in how they would do it.
I hope they haven't scrapped any initial ideas in order to go back to something "older".

There has never been a shitty SLG directed by TADA.
DaiBanchou was good but not at the level of other ALSLGs because it wasn't produced & directed by TADA.
Kichikuoh Rance, DaiAkuji, Sengoku Rance have all been superb.

In other words, if "Mr Perfectionist" TADA decided to remake DaiTeikoku, I think it's safe to assume it's gonna be awesome.

I can't wait for both of these things.

Man, I hope I don't need to have a 16:9 monitor for this.
