@@Softcustomer2 i massively respect the composer for what i've read in the comments here, and i'm so happy to get MORE soundtrack in this release, i hope they keep up hype with more video uploads untilrelease.

I would rather described them as a type of "ghost", they appear just to dissappear the next moment mysteriously, this cycle ever reapeating. OFF may be the most mysterious game of all time, it just appeared out of nowhere and marked everyone that played by how weird it is.

ohhhhhhhhh my god. Mortis saying something was gonna happen, I thought it'd be a sequel or something. This is more reasonable and also soo much more epic!! Congrats mortis this is awesome, curious how the new battle system and areas will go. Welcome new fandom friends, Batter for smash please
OFF has always been a huge thing in my life. it was the first (and kindest) fandom space i had ever been in, and is an amazing game with a cool art style and story. Beyond excited that it's getting so much love again
@@ils4844well Mortis Ghost is Belgian, but that doesn't mean the others are. If im not mistaken, Alias Conrad Coldwood (the composer) is french for exemple.
I just want to kindly inform you that he never planned at any point to pursue a career in video games and he's been "cooking" for the entire 16 years since the original release in his actual field, which is drawing and comic books
@@cosmosspacecentertelevision well, it's without doubt something to cheer on, I agree. My comment has been made of surprise, I wasn't angry or anything like that (I recently realized that it sounds like if I was angry when I'm not, lol. I apologize about that)
My eyes widened like a cartoon character upon seeing this. I never pre-order anything anymore but I'll make an exception for something that truly deserves it.
Yeah, also not appreciating the "Shoutout to whoever did this!", "Media just sort of appears and no-one knows how!" lack of awareness. Mortis Ghost is the developer, as shown on the store page and in this video as the first copyright creeit. Not sure what involvement Fangamer has, beyond presumably funding the console presence.
Oh my god. I remember playing this game during my college year. I even cosplayed as The Batter a few years ago. And now seeing this game make it return on Switch and Steam almost makes me teary eyed. Definitely gonna buy this game on both platforms.
Literally never thought this would happen, the game is 15 years old... a total miracle. So glad mortis still supports the game to this degree to this day. I have literally never seen anything quite like OFF. Super excited for the new content!
GTA 6 who? No but seriously, this is definitely one of the last gaming announcements I ever expected to see, yet I couldn't be happier about it. OFF is truly a gem, and getting to re-experience it more refined than ever will be a blast no doubt. Love the new style on the official art too!
I played OFF for the first time when it was doing its rounds on tumblr and loved it. I’m in a very different place in my life now-out of school, in my own home, working full time-but hearing OFF is finally getting the recognition it deserves has me just as excited to play again as the first time. Congrats to the dev.
Im buying the Bad Human Edition IMMEDIATELY. Even though OFF is older than me it influenced my childhood watching TH-camrs like Coryxkenshin and Markiplier play through this awesome game. Im so hyped to see the new battle mechanics and I hope a new generation will like and experience OFF. Also as a RTVS fan I will EXPLODE if he does a promotional stream for this (they're the ones who preformed the Spamton Sweepstakes, Pizza Tower, and Rollercoaster Tycoon Fanfare fangamer vids)

Nintendo doesn't own any indies that sell their games on the e-shop, even as a joke, don't say that, you wouldn't believe how much people would attack indies thinking they sold out.
Go to OFFtheRPG.com/ and pre-order OFF!
Sometimes I forget OFF was never a formally published game. Now it's on the Switch before Mother 3.
Mother 3 is on the switch. Came out earlier this year
@Monkayy69420 only in japan tho
And I didn't know either of these things.
