.hack//New World Ver.2 and backstory

Post by Kuukai »

So it looks like we've made the hop to Ver.2, from "New World" to ".hack//New World", and with that there's some new backstory, German Epitaph lyric music, etc.

The setting is 2032, TheWorld:Re-vice age (30 million players). CC Corp was bought by the the rapidly growing ALTIMIT rival MONOREAL (this company was mentioned at the end of Guilty Dragon).

:D Can't argue with more .hack backstory,though it would help if it reached a console platform~

^^' though even if you get far/powerful cards when the servers go you lose it all.

How long are we going to wait for the greatest series to ever come back on consoles.

My soul is dying. :t

So if a company has bought ALTIMIT, does that mean the MAMA conspiracy is starting to fall apart? Since ALTIMIT seems to have been their brain-child in all respects. In addition all forms of .hack// music greatly interests me, is it possible to listen to this new German Epitaph Lyric Music, as you put it?

Seems a video was made to give a summary of the .hack games which was made after they changed the title to .hack//New World,is there anything new mentioned in this video?

The more we learn about how New World connects to the ongoing plot, the less hope I have about a console .hack game, let alone a "season 4."
I do want to know what Matsuyama is talking about in that video, though.

I was wondering, when is //New World Vol. 2 coming out? Wasn't it supposed to be a trilogy? We're almost in 2017, so it'll soon be a year.

They dropped the vol. 1 subtitle. It seems to just be stand-alone now.

Oh? Huh, I didn't notice it (mainly cause I deleted it from my phone in order to free up space for Bleach Brave Souls lol).
So it'll simply get updates and events like Guilty Dragon, no future "sequels".. hmmm, this is either good news or bad news. Good news that maybe they're doing a legit .hack game and don't wanna waste time/ideas on this, or bad news in the sense that they don't even want to work on anything .hack related (too much effort).. :(

I'd say the latter. Feels like NU is cancelled.
