SP points can be used to add various bonus effects to a character’s attacks and techs. This ties into the momentum system in the game where you gain SP (Setsuna Points) by letting the momentum gauge fill once the ATB bar is full. The word “Setsuna” also means “a moment in time” in Japanese.The team felt that the word “Setsunai” feeling sorrow was a very heartfelt term in Japan, and it is one of the key themes of the game but obviously that word doesn’t have any meaning outside of Japan so the name of the game in the west was changed to I am Setsuna because of the character Setsuna’s role in the story. In Japanese Ikenie means sacrifice, Yuki means snow and Setsuna means sorrow. I am Setsuna is known as “Ikenie To Yuki No Setsuna” in Japan.The creation of the game and the story behind its developer, Tokyo RPG Factory, was a discovery in it of itself! Setsuna must leave with her safeguards for the farthest land, where the ceremony of sacrifice will be held.īelow is a list of interesting facts about I Am Setsuna that community manager Dan Seto and I have learned through the year. Those living on the island are afraid and try to calm the fiend by offering a sacrifice - Setsuna - chosen because of her powers of enchantment. However, one year, the fiend grows violent before the next sacrifice is due. I am Setsuna tells the tale of a land that has maintained peace with a fiend – once every decade, a sacrifice is offered to a fiend on the island. The subtle way the characters move, the music, and the battles evoke the games some of us grew up playing, but with a splash of novelty once you pick up the controller. I Am Setsuna’s gameplay is reminiscent of an old school JRPG. This year, on July 19, it comes to the west on PlayStation Store. One year ago, we announced I am Setsuna at our E3 press conference.
