Falcom, come ogni settimana, ha condiviso nuove immagini e informazioni per Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, il nuovo capitolo della famosissima saga action RPG che sarà disponibile a giugno in Giappone su PlayStation Vita mentre l’edizione PlayStation 4 è attualmente programmata per il prossimo anno.
Quest’oggi vi parliamo di alcuni personaggi secondari come Dogi e Captain Barbaros e l’interazione di Adol e i suoi amici con Lombardia Passenger Liner:
■ Sub-Characters
Dogi (26 years-old, voiced by Kenta Miyake)
“Man, I might say it every time, but being with you is really never boring.”
The pride-in-his-strength vagabond who acts as Adol’s partner. It’s been four years since he helped Adol out of a crisis on an adventure in the ancient kingdom of Ys, and the two have traveled together all over the world. Just like Adol, he was aboard the Lombardia passenger liner, aiming for the place of his next adventure, but goes missing when the ship sinks.
Captain Barbaros (46 years-old, voiced by Hirohiko Kakegawa)
“Adol, as you are an adventurer, I am looking forward to your wisdom and insight.”
The captain of the Lombardia passenger liner whose vibrant red beard stands out. He appears daring with his large build at first glance, but with his polite demeanor always takes on a sincere attitude, even when it comes to his passengers. Besides sailors, he is also relied on by his passengers, and continues to exhibit that power as a leader on the Isle of Seiren when he brings together the array of personalities of the island’s castaways.
