The Countdown is Over! Tides of Destiny Has Been Released!

[Osuchin]

Less then a week if you live on the east coast.

I just hope Natsume doesn't pull a jerk move and delay the game.

Nearly exactly a week in Central time zone.

I just hope Natsume doesn't pull a jerk move and delay the game.

Amen to that. *sigh* There are people who've been waiting for this for a long time, and announcing a delay within a week of the date expected... is just. not. nice.

[MagicShootingStar]

Wait...
Has the game been officially pushed back, or what? <_>

[Osuchin]

Natsume still hasn't made an announcement.
They only said they will have RF news later in the week.

So we are hoping it's not a delay.
Seriously, what company makes us wait a whole month after announcing a release date only to change it at the last minute. That's just not a good way to treat your fans.

I just found out about this game yesterday when my boyfriend brought it up. It looks really cool and fun!! :D

But can you play as the female character from the start of the game? I read somewhere that you have to beat the game as the male first then you can play as the female. Is that true?
Oh and if you're playing as the female, can you marry the male protagonist?

[Osuchin]

You can play as Sonja, but only after the main story is finished, when you are given the one time choice to play as either. Sonja being a playable character was a last minute addition to the game when it was being developed so they didn't have enough time to give her her own storyline adaptation.

But if you play as Sonja you can marry Aden and vice versa.

[XxAnimeCutiexX]

Ohh, I understand now. Thank you :D

[BananaSlurpee]

Yay, only a week now. (well in 10 minutes, but I'm going to sleep, so I'm just saying it early )

I've been looking forward to it for much longer than just 1 month Ever since it was announced for Japan I was hoping that Natsume would get a really quick translation (and they did :D) sooo.. yea. Anyways, it would really be stupid if they made a delay now, not to mention mean.

[SogeUsopp114]

Just thought of something =D , who will be playing as Sonia or Azel first after they beat the game =D

Might play as Sonia first ^u^

Edit: Well agreed it would be mean of them to do that but if they are delaying then hoping a pre order bonus will be added to it like someone else said on here ^U^ *hopes for Art Book or Soundtrack*

[Googaboga]

I know I'm gonna play as Azel first and then Sonia after.

It would be weird for me to stop playing as Azel after so long and then going back to play as him again later.

[Sprinkles&Cupcakes]

I finally convinced my parents to get me the game when it gets released. I think. Now lets just hope that a delay doesn't happen.:'D
I'm thinking of playing as Azel first, to make the gameplay more different than my japanese playtrough. I never got married as Azel because I made the wedding ring preparations too late, and got bored of waiting. v_v And started playing animal crossing again. XD Tough, I will play as Sonja too and maybe not marry Azel this time... it just really depends... Or maybe just woo all the bachelors and decide on their events. XD

[Mass Fable]

I am gonna get to the point where you can choose between the two, save, then play as Sonia. However this also depends on whether or not I can stomach her or not.

[hoshiko]

I'll probably play as Azel first as well. I like more of the bachelorettes than the bachelors~ And... this is the only way I can get Aden and Mikoto together~ xD /hit

It'd probably, like mentioned before, be odd to play as Aden for so long, then play Sonia, then Aden again.

[Osuchin]

I am hoping all this talk of delays is nothing more then rumor and Natsume will just be making an announcement to tell us everthing is continuing as schedule and to wish us good luck in playing the game.

[BananaSlurpee]

I'll probably play Sonia first, as mentioned earlier (I think I said so anyway) I like playing the female when I get a choice, since male leads are super common now.

@Osu, I sure hope that's the case too.
