It’s been over four months since I wrote my post about Visualnoveler’s upcoming 3D fantasy AJRPG “Destiny Chronicles”, and during that time quite a lot of things have happened. For starter, we were just informed by Visualnoveler that they aim to launch a Kickstarter campaign for “Destiny Chronicles” on the 4th of October:

“Hello Thegg,Destiny Chronicles will be launching this Wednesday on October 4th 10pm GMT+8. We’ll be showing a preview of the Kickstarter rewards a day before the campaign starts along with a new trailer.” – Visualnoveler

“Destiny Chronicles” looks pretty good so far.

This is great news for fans of 3D fantasy AJRPG’s with no doubt =) And for those who don’t know what “Destiny Chronicles” is all about, here’s a short deception of the game:

“Inspired by classic action JRPGs, Destiny Chronicles is an action role-playing game about a squire named Celeste who begins a journey to prove herself worthy of becoming a true knight. Her quest takes her far from her home, across the continent in pursuit of a thief whose actions stem from a sinister plot. Its character-driven plot focuses on the interactions between Celeste and her companions as they hunt down the thief. Our goal is to make the game lighthearted and humorous, yet still tell a compelling story. Destiny Chronicles features an exciting and fast-paced action combat system like that of Kingdom Hearts and Celeste’s fighting style can be customized to suit your playstyle with a talent tree and upgrade system.”

Say hello to Celeste, the main character of “Destiny Chronicles” (she’s a squire).

As for features, here’s some of the said launch features for “Destiny Chronicles”:

Features:
– Character-Driven Story – As Celeste travels across the continent with her companions Valana and Ruby, they’ll learn more about the world and its history, as well as a sinister plot about to unfold.
– Exciting, Dynamic Battles – Take on a variety of enemies with an exciting action combat system. Plan your battles, unleash special attacks, and devastate your foes.
– Beautiful, Mysterious World – Explore fields, towns, and dungeons across a strange world still haunted by its elusive past.
– Customization – Use an expansive talent tree to customize Celeste’s fighting style.
– Quests – In addition to the main story, side quests and optional activities allow you to further explore the world and characters of Destiny Chronicles. Dig deeper into the lore, help the people you meet, and join your party members as they resolve their personal struggles.
– Party Interactions – The three main characters learn and change throughout their journey and humorous banter fills their interactions as they come to know each other. Optional conversations add greater depth to their friendship.
– Enchanting – Upgrade your gear and boost your skills by enchanting them with magical relics.

The combat aspect of “destiny chronicles” looks pretty cool if you ask me (“Secret of Mana” and “Chrono Trigger” comes to mind).
