This makes me want ECO more than ever. It's almost like what people seem to want RO2 to be, only not.

[IronFist]

wow thats freaky... no smith?

[iiNote]

IMO the models are 1billion times uglier than the original RO2 models... It's so cheap.
The Shadow Chaser one looks like he just exploded from a Looney Toons cartoon.

Where can I get those really nice Origami models?

Doesn't this count as plagiarism of some sort?

Both games are owned by/published by gravity so it seems to be more of a 'Jetsons meet the Flinstones' kind of crossover. I have to say, RO does pretty well by it's sprite-based designs.

We have a papercraft novice in the office so I'm sure these do exist out there. Take a heck of a long time to cut out and glue together though...

It does look nice in 3D. I guess no one has ever played Tales of Symphonia because that type of graphic engine + RO would look REALLY nice

you have no idea how many people LOVE sprite base games, IF this game had higher details sprite and alot of the bugs and unblances in this game were fix and the game engine actual optimised RO would be alot more popular

RO would look sooo nice in those graphics. The first game was amazing, i play ToS1 at least once a year =)

On the other side of that, there's a Tiny hat in RO too, isn't there? XD I used to spend all my time getting new outfits in that game... I miss it.

[TheQuietStorm]

ew 3d-ish.

one of the reason i like RO is because its not 3D

[Puppet]

I have played many 3d MMO and most of them I quit playing after 3 months, for one reason alone , I prefer Sprite Based over 3D, which the main reason I still play RO, Despite the current state of it and the path it walking

Oh okay, I thought Gung-ho sounded farmiliar, but I only speak English, so fail on my part

But yea, I like my sprites over cartoony cute 3D characters

I hate the boxy look of these graphics, but seeing the cross over is pretty neat.

wouldn't it be more like coke and coke 0? the jetsons and flintstones look nothing like each other.

The second part has better graphics but the story is awfull.

You'd be amazed how RO-like it does look. The game can basically be played in Isometric view or a more 3D looking view. Some maps even force Isometric viewpoints. It's not the same type of 3D you're used to.

ECO is very RO. Other than the fact that the characters are now in 3D, everything about it yells RO, down to the grind. >_>

[Digimonic]

i like those looks...^_^ what if we did make it like that while still keeping the sprite theme going? there are games that have 3d sprite models (if you played megaman starforce and final fantasy tactics then you know what i mean by 3d sprites ^_^)

Don't those games have 2D sprites...? I don't know the MM game, but Tactics just had sprites in a 3D environment... like RO has already.

But yes, ECO plays very much like RO, despite the 3Dness.

[Digimonic]

i mean by the art style of the sprites (sprites are 2d by default) its so 360 degree angle figures slmost 3d but sprite-ish hard to describe maybe i show screenies (if i knew how to post them in forums)

[Digimonic]

They sau its part of gravtiy....then why isnt in the "games" options when i click the button? just ro requium and rose ect ect. X_X

[Miyuki]

ECO was developed for and published by GungHo in Japan, who also runs jRO. Gravity (Korea) acquired the rights to publish ECO in Korea a few years after the game first started. (Maybe even manage the rights for global publishing for the title too, I'm not too sure on that.)

The game once had an English version, but the management company for that server didn't seem like they're even all that enthusiastic about keeping the server alive and ... yeah, server gone done pretty soon. There are currently no English servers for this game.

Hell yeah! *hopes Gravity and Namco's "Tales of" studio merge so this can happen*
