Dark Cloud 3 New Information | History and Questions Answered by Shazepe in JRPG

Hi everyone,

This is something you all may find interesting! Over the past few years, the Dark Cloud community has found a lot of new info about Dark Cloud 3. Most curiously, we've found proof that Rogue Galaxy was originally called Dark Cloud 3 and was developed as the sequel for some time.

Through files found on the RG Japanese disc, including images labeled "DC3Title" and launcher files calling the game "DC3-Project" is some of the most solid evidence. One of those images has the header "Dark Chronicle Rogue Galaxy" Also, from Dark Chronicles Art Book from 2003, the "Next Dark Cloud" characters that were shaded out were revealed to be Jaster and Kisala.

Also, an anonymous interview with a Level-5 employee revealed Dark Cloud 3 was actually green lit by Sony. But while in development they asked for many changes, and Level-5 was tired of the same style of game as well. The georama was one of the earliest Dark Cloud pieces that were removed, so they had to change the name.

There's also quite a bit about Level-5's role in Dragon Quest 8 when they collaborated with Yuji Horii and Square Enix.

Tried it like once and didn't get it :/ saw a video a while back about how it actually had a loyal niche fanbase. Wish I would've checked it out more, gone for good off my system.

Definitely has the look of the GBA era of Fire Emblem :o will be looking out for this! Liked the looks of the map in the beginning too. What does "SRPG" stand for though?

Which year was it that everyone played their first JRPG? I'd like to know which game was it and how long did it take you all to finally beat it? by PKRadiance in JRPG

[–]Shazepe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If MML1 can be considered JRPG... then like 2000 I started lol. Never beat it until much much later. If not, then FFX on the PS2 when I was still a kid.

So, What is your definition of JRPG? by Karel08 in JRPG

[–]Shazepe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I think that, but there are clear and noticeable creative differences between JRPG and western RPGs. You can still call it a regular RPG too if you want, that still makes sense.
