Square Enix's newest Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates trailer is packed with nearly six minutes of boisterous combat scenes, dungeon-roaming recklessness, and much more! The clips that show everyone working together to put out a spreading fire with water barrels are definitely our favorite parts; it makes our hearts ache knowing that we'll never find more than one other person to play with, if even that many, when the game finally comes to North American next spring. The brief preview of the cooperative ARPG's online component is nothing to get excited about -- players can trade their painted and personalized moogles. Yep, Square Enix actually managed to come up with something worse than MogNet.
Being able to customize your character's appearance (ninjas!), though, as you can see from the screen grab above, is the dog's bollocks. The extended movie also demonstrates that you'll be able to flip the action from the top window onto the bottom screen, using your stylus to direct spells and ranged weapons. Jump past the post break for the embedded video.

That's too bad. I would have bought it if it had online play. Now I have no interest.

As long as it has LAN co-op, it'll be fine.

I don't know anybody with a DS, so LAN is useless to me. Less and less people are interesting in getting together to play FF games on handheld systems once out of college. Strange.

That looks incredible. Screw Wi-Fi, what they're doing wouldn't work over the internet. Can't wait, expecially since I've managed to get my housemates excited about it too

I would prefer if someone would code a tunnel for PCs which could tunnel DS wifi lan traffic over the Internet and emulate a DS with whatever wifi access point. So all the lan games would work over the Internet aswell.

Anybody know if there's a translation for what she's saying in the video? I can figure most of it out, but I'd like a translation nonetheless, if it's available.
