That's why I was saying, that because of all these english translations, it makes me think that, the release date is much closer than summer.

And in terms of Endrance and Haseo.......I don't know too much seeing as how I haven't seen too much of Volume 2. But, this video just makes more anxious about playing it.

It kinda makes me a little irritated. aqnd it kinda makes me think that they might be giving us a false release date to up the hype and to judge the U.S. reaction to the hype.

Well, this is about playing the game right? The game isn't going out in some time because for this, the people is going to get more anxious and the expectation will go even more higher.

I can't predicted it but March 15th is another day without Vol.2, but maybe is to announce the official release date... I'm anxious to get the game, but you have patience. Just look on the release date of (insert your favorite game vendor here) to acquire a pre-release date before is too late.

ahh man.

Well, we only have about 14 days left before we find out any way. But, what I don't get about all this is why they are releasing all these translated scenes, if they are saying that the release date is late summer. I mean...the release date on 1up says March 15th. But like a lot of other people are speculating is that that is when they are going to announce the release date....but I don't think so.

We have all these scenes, and all this hype building but at the same time it is pissing a lot of people off.

Although, March is towards the beginning of summer, so maybe that is what they are getting at. But, at the same time, to me a March 15th release date does seem likely.

I don't know anymore. I'd say...April maybe...May at the latest. Any longer and they are stalling for some reason.

I don't really know. Because at the moment I don't see the point in releasing these english translations. when what the people really want to see is the english trailer for it. Then maybe that would tie me.....and a lot of other people over until it comes out.

If you mean a trailer like the Japanese one for Vol.2 there won't be one. We don't get nearly as much advertising for games as they do in Japan. The "trailer" we already have is the best we will get.

well

How come we have an english trailer for volume 1...I just assume it fair that they will release a volume 2 english trailer.

It might be that he's gay, but like Umbra said, that he needs to cling to someone, and since Haseo was right there, he's hot for the guy.

Well, if we go with the theory that Endrance is Elk, then we know that he was once attracted to Mia, and this fulfilling her title as a Phase, we know this was an unrequited love. So you can safely say that Endrance isn't homosexual, but has developed feelings of homosexuality.

In any case, maybe I'm biased here, but you can't really say Endrance isn't 'right in the head'. He's emotionally very weak and needs the support of someone else to continue living; he had Mia in Volume 1 and Haseo from Volume 2. Mia's relationship with Endrance was one-way, Endrance gave affection only to be told what to do, yet the idea that Haseo needs Endrance for support is what is so sweet; the two of them give each other support.

In any case, Endrance can't be the Temptress if he does not feel unrequited love for someone else, and that someone is Haseo.

I wouldn't exclaim that a large percentage of the message board users have come out stating they're homosexual. Best not to state that statistic pulled out of thin air.

From what I've played in both the Japanese versions of Vol. 1 and 2...and the English version of Vol. 1, I think of Endrance more as a eccentric person. But the dialog and writing for the localization might sway it towards what everyone else is stating. Let's see what Vol. 2 delivers in regards to Endrance.

Oh, wow, this is just too good and it looks nice. Sakubo sitting over the lake and saying something about thats all we have left...you and I.

Damn....makes me mad just waiting for the game. But at the same time, makes me think that the march 15th release date might be true.

Thoughts?
Yeah, well, I'm a tad insulted to say the least. I mean, the clip is short first off, and it didn't show no more than that glowing tree, with Sakubo and Endrance in it. I'm truly insulted. Insulted. I wanted more, and all I get less than a minute.

Those bastards.

To say the least, I will still buy the game, but truly, I have to say this - give us more than a mere and almost bare minute teaser. Because marketting wise, it's only making me wonder if you've done nothing substantial other than a stupid bare minute teaser.

Those bastards.

I'm done.

What does "unrequited" mean?

Uh, anyway, I thought Endrance was "The Temptress" because he's a very desirable person. Everybody loves him, because he's so man-pretty and stuff. That, or Mia/Maha felt bad for leaving Elk, and decided to stay by his side as an Avatar. Assuming that Endrance is Elk...

What does "unrequited" mean?
To answer your question:

1. not returned or reciprocated: unrequited love.
2. not avenged or retaliated: an unrequited wrong.
3. not repaid or satisfied.

Does that help?

I didn't mean not right in the head as in he was crazy and **** like that, I meant more that he was emotionally frail and a little delusional. I guess I didn't state it well. Sorry 'bout that.

I agree. I'm not gay or bi at all, but that dosent mean I can't appreciate something beautiful and genuine. Love is love, no matter who it's between. (even if it is only in a game :? )
