It's a placeholder. They haven't come out with an official release date yet. Stores like Gamespot and Amazon need to put one down for preorders in their system.

I got hurt at work so I guess I'll be able to keep an eye on twitter more today. I hope they do more recordings. Though it would make sense of them to take the weekend off.

It's already almost 2 and they've said nothing, so I highly doubt it. Looking forward to more on Monday!

Oh, are you alright Mecha? D:

No updates today or tomorrow, I assume~

@Mecha-Lollipop: You doing okay?

Well, they deserve their weekends, I believe (I still can't get over how small they are and yet the work they do).

I'll just sit here and be happy with the names so far. They kept Porcoline, Kiel, and Dolce (and changed Chlorica to Clorica which is basically the same only I can now spell her name without doublechecking myself), so I hope that Volkanon and Vishnal stay. They're likely to keep Dylas the same or close, given how they had Dylan on the joke list. It's really exciting how they're twittering this stuff for all the fans~

I'll be okay Drav. I just got my ankle a little smashed by some equipment but no fractures or anything. If I stay off it completely today and ice it I should be fine for work tomorrow. I actually didn't even want to come home today because I hate missing work but my manager made me as a precaution.

No updates but they're still answering questions which is cool.

Edit: @sadeofraine I'll be just fine. Still having a bit of trouble getting around but turned my shinai into a makeshift crutch to help haha.
I agree that they deserve their weekends. Thats why I'm putting a hold on questions.

It hurts but I've been hurt worse. I'm just glad I have some video games within reach and can access fogu on my phone so I'm not too bored until my boyfriend gets home.

What a nice way to release character names. It is cool how XSEED seems to be having so much fun with this C:. I like all the names so far. I really want to know now is if they keep Lest the same. They probably will since Frey got to stay but that is still the one I am most curious to know for sure. I am so used to saying Lest and Frey it would be hard to call the MCs Frey and some other name.

You can just name him Lest regardless of the default.

Googaboga · Post Posted: Mar 03, 2013 9:56 am

That is true however that doesn't effect the issue I have ;<. Besides the fact I have a RF tradition of always renaming the MC to specific things anyways, I always refer to the characters when speaking of them by their English default name. I don't talk to myself about RF (usually

) and other people aren't going to know who I am talking about if I don't use the default name. So if they change his name I'll still have to go by his new name when speaking to someone who just knows the English version no matter what I call him in my personal file.

It won't be the end of the world or anything of course but that is just why I am most interested in seeing what they call Lest.

I know how you feel. I've had to catch myself a couple times when I've almost used my character's name instead of the default name on various games. I do hope they keep it as Lest too even though I'm renaming my MCs as well. Lest and Frey are just so nice and familiar by now. It would make it easier on everyone than having to remember a new MC name. Though I'm sure even if they did rename him we could all call them Lest and Frey and MOST of Fogu would know what we were talking about.

If they didn't change Frey I'm pretty sure they won't change Lest. Let's just wait til tomorrow and hope. I have tomorrow off work so I can help keep an eye on Twitter.

Googaboga · Post Posted: Mar 03, 2013 1:12 pm

That's true. Even if they do change his name on Ushi I should be fine if I still call him Lest C:.

This topic is amazing. Thanks a lot for compiling this for us!

I love how active Xseed is with what they're doing. I was wildly entertained while reading these tweets. xD

RopeMaidenKirie · Post Posted: Mar 03, 2013 6:39 pm

You're quite welcome :D

Yeah, I love how much they interact with their fans. Since they are such a small company, we don't have to deal with any PR/marketing BS, which is sooo incredibly nice.

I know there was a few people around that were cautious about them doing the localization instead of Natsume.. but I certainly hope they'll give them a chance.
