jqtaxpayer Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Assuming I'm not the only one here who would see the title of this game and not be curious as to what it could be, I did a little digging and figured I'd post what I found. It's not nearly as interesting as I'd hoped/feared, but might be of some interest to JRPG fans: A Japanese game entitled Conception: Please Give Birth To My Child (rough translation) -- a sort-of romantic RPG released in 2012 -- is getting a sequel. The original game, released on PSP, was a dungeon-based adventure game that saw you take on the role of male student Itsuki. Your purpose? Conceive a child with as many as a dozen "star maidens", which will aid you in a fight to save the world. Each child has a special skill depending on his or her mother, all of whom are assigned a star sign: Aric is an Aries, Tarua is a Taurus, and my personal favourite (because she has cat ears), is Femiruna, who's a Leo. When reviewed by Famitsu, the highly respected Japanese gaming magazine, it received rave scores. Clearly its commercial successes were enough to warrant the conception of this second offspring, to be delivered onto PS Vita and Nintendo 3DS. It's the work of Tokyo developer Spike, which is better known for its creation of the Dragon Ball Z game series, as well as being the publisher of various Western games inside Japan, such as Dragon Age, various Tomb Raider titles, BioShock and Homefront. It's doubtful the game will ever be released outside of Japan, but it's a fun example of how consistently opposed larger Japanese and Western studios are when it comes to experimentation. They get WTF titles about star maidens and dungeon-based childbirth, we get Garbage Truck Simulator 2011. Take a look at some screenshots from the original Conception's launch trailer in our gallery. And if anyone gets the chance in Japan to play this sequel -- which, according to one source's translation, is called Conception II: Guidance Of The Seven Stars And Mazuru's Nightmare -- I look forward to hearing your comments.

kingofirony Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thanks for the info.From the title i thought it was a baby making simulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverendSID Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Messed up title, but it actually sounds kinda funny and interesting. Shame these things never get English subs. I'd import them in a heartbeat, just to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuffle Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Thanks for the info.From the title i thought it was a baby making simulator. I would say it's more along the lines of baby-making like Record of Agarest War(except your child won't inherit your curse). But the game is mostly a standard turn-based JRPG/dating sim game.

NoNotThatRyan Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I'd honestly love for this game to come to the west because I'm all for playing a off-beat game like this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilightdragon Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 It does look pretty interesting. I definitely need to start learning Japanese so I can play these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieOnFire Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 The first game was released on the PSP, and it was, well, not that good as a RPG game. People most likely bought and treated it as a more visual-novel-y game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuffle Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51efcafe10411_thumb1.jpg A demo of the child-making RPG/dating sim Conception II is coming to the 3DS on August 8. The demo will include all of the content from the PS Vita demo available now, including the heroines Fuuko, Ellie, and Tohri. With these girls, you will be able to talk, make children, and fight monsters. http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51efcafe39066_thumb1.jpg http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51efcafe4d0b3_thumb1.jpg The same day, the PS Vita will receive a second demo containing the entire prologue. If you buy the final product, you will be able to carry over your save data from the demo. In addition, Spike Chunsoft has announced that as a future DLC quest, you will be able to fight the demented Monobear from their Danganronpa games. They haven’t revealed when this DLC will be released, or whether Monobear will be ridiculously powerful. http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51efcafbd50f0_thumb1.jpg http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51efcafc0683b_thumb2.jpg Conception II will be released for the Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita on August 22. Danganronpa's Monobear Is Coming To Conception II As DLC - Siliconera [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuPenr15fLA]PS Vita/3DS[/ame] Spike Chunsoft has revealed a new trailer for their upcoming RPG Conception II. Along with the features that were revealed earlier, this video gives brief glimpses of practically every element of the game, including a certain evil bear. The trailer features the opening song spicate~ 7-Colored Celestial Sphere performed by Phantasmagoric, along with footage and voice samples of the seven heroines. Among the voice actresses are Mariya Ise (Metallica from The Witch and the Hundred Knights) as Ellie, the sparkly-eyed girl, and Kaori Mizuhashi (Laharl) as Serina, the little blue-haired tsundere. Star Children are created by using the “Love Machine”. In battle, they fight in teams of three and can combine into a mech-like “Star Angel”. Each Star Child’s stats are determined by his/her mother, matryoshka doll, and class. You can unlock a total of 30 different classes, and later in the game, you will also unlock the W Love Machine, which lets you make children with two girls at once(!). Conception II will be released on August 22. A demo will be available for the Nintendo 3DS on August 8, whereas the prologue will be available for the PlayStation Vita on the same day.

Like in a normal RPG, these Star Children come in thirty different classes, such as swordsmen, magicians, thieves, and gamblers(!). Now, Famitsu has revealed some more classes that are new to this sequel. Dark Knight http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51ef7d8959cb6_thumb.jpg http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screenshot2013_07_2723_49_16_thumb.png The Dark Knight relinquishes all feelings of love and affection in order to become a powerful warrior. The Dark Knight is as solid as the Paladin, further empowered by an aggressive nature that allows no room for mistakes. Diva http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51ef7d8a2a6fe_thumb.jpg http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screenshot2013_07_2723_43_31_thumb1.png Endowed with a heavenly voice, the Diva is a girls-only class that supports her other party members with her vocal skills. Mercenary http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51ef7d8a5816f_thumb.jpg http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Screenshot2013_07_2723_49_40_thumb.png The Mercenary is a boy-only class and an adept warrior who manipulates his sword skills to destroy enemies without fail. To fight enemies in Conception II, you must form three teams of three Star Children. When you put certain classes in a team, they can combine forces to execute a special team skill. http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51ef7d885eb27_thumb.jpg For example, when you have a Diva and a Minstrel in the same team, they can join their musical prowesses perform the skill Lucky March, which restores HP and increases the luck of their allies. http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51ef7d891c845_thumb.jpg The Dark Knight and Mercenary can execute the team skill Guard Chain which simultaneously delivers a powerful blow, creates a defensive barrier, and increases the Over Chain Gauge, which speeds up all of your teams’ moves when it’s filled. http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/l_51ef7d8890fa4_thumb.jpg Conception II will be released for the PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS on August 22. A demo is available now for the Vita, whereas the 3DS will receive one on August 8.
