Never before seen interviews now online...

Post by GhaleonOne »

Thanks to Temzin, we now have about 40 pages of never before read in English interviews with Kubooka and others regarding specifically the story of LUNAR. It's amazing stuff. Check the frontpage for the update, and feel free to discuss it here or even create a new topic for specific discussion, as there's some really amazing stuff in there.

And with that, I'm off on vacation for the next week and will likely not even be reading the boards until next Thursday or so. When I get back I'll be back on DSL and will have one of the most important updates this site has ever had within a week or two of that.

Just read 'em.... very cool. Lots of little insights on the processes of the games' creation.

My favorite little bit is how they originally planned to have the Fake Althena give birth to Zophar. That would have certainly been interesting.

Have fun on vacation, G1! I can't wait for the updates you're talking about. I'm curious already.

I read through them quickly at work. I'll have to go over them now with the artbook in hand for context. Thanks, Temzin and G1! I've been itching to know what those pages said since I got it!

Wahaha, Lunar-Net definitely goes to 11 in my book compared to all the Lunar sites I've seen (The Blue Star site was cool way back in the day, though).

One thing I enjoyed reading a while back and translating this time was about things that they had thought of implementing before that they were actually able to for the remake. While I never forgave the EB remake for the missing cinemas, old Luna, simplified Zophar's Castle/last battle, and edited Ziek the Risen/Phantom Sentry/Star Dragon, it's cool that they were able to have Ghaleon show his displeasure at being called Dragonmaster, and also to have the scene where his cloak flies away in the wind, like they wanted Luna's scarf to do. Not bad. Too bad more major ideas like human-form Ruby and a flying Vheen didn't happen, but hey.
