THE iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls: Starlight Stage

[zaitcev]

I think CG and ML is slowly killing iMAS, (...)

Omo addressed the old codgers like that in his write-up of the 10th anniversary festivities:

"M@STER OF IDOL WORLD, with translation, means this. When they announced those words some months back, that was the idea. Cinderella Girls and Million Live are engineered after the pivot, to take the franchise forward using its younger and more manageable members, with the large casts. In a sense this has always been a point of tension. How will the fanbase accept CG/ML? And by fanbase I mean the different existing factions, and not even necessarily all of them. There’s still people who are “producers” who don’t DLC, for example, who are basically a lost cause in a way (but can still be engaged), or those who were hardcore 765Pro from their humble beginnings. I think in that sense it is the one greatest challenge IM@S 10th seeks to address."

Also I'm guessing this is going to end up like DCD Aikatsu where you can customize the performers but not the audio.

i think so too ono most mobile games is like that but imas is known for that so it's sad if it'll end that way but the game might become too big in file size

It says it will start with over 20 songs and over 50 idols, and that they plan to add more songs and idols over time.

So we might/probably will see all of the voiced girls in the game? sign me up!!! especially if it means natsuki 
Nana,Yuki, Aiko and Airi's models are cute!

[MetalPredat0r]

If this DOES mean every voiced idol, then Minami/Ranko/Takumi/Airi/Whoever wants to be the filler fifth wheel will be my unit. (Assuming this game comes out overseas)

Also, is there gonna be any more costumes besides the one we've seen a million times?

[cobeng13]

This has a lot more content than previously thought - communications, petit production office, and models for many many idols.
I think the models are looking and moving better too...

And there will be more info at TGS as well?

[meichan111]

yeah seems better and better ovo can't wait, xD just that idea of serial codes for songs is a little irritating but thats how imas is

[Chance4U]

Wow, we have a few of idols who weren't confirmed to have voices yet.. Saori literally made me cry, cause I never thought she'd actually get one!

* Passion: Natsuki Kimura, Syoko Hoshi, Yuko Hori, Yui Ohtsuki, Sanae Katagiri, Natalia, Kaoru Ryuzaki
* Cool: Koume Shirasaka, Arisu Tachibana, Kanade Hayami, Syuko Shiomi, Haruna Kamijo, Chie Sasaki, Yukimi Sajo, Sarina Matsumoto, Karen Hojo, Nao Kamiya

and finally they are showing higher difficulty settings

now i'm really looking forward to it

[ScentOfLilacs]

I need my Fumika in this.

[MetalPredat0r]

Well, this is a completely different beast than from what we initially saw. I'm surprised they're jam packing this much content into a mobile game. My interest is now piqued.

Also, NATALIA OHMAHGOD YES!

I need my Fumika in this.

Given the amount of characters announced and who we have so far, it'd be dumb not to have her.

[SakuraMaxX]

The chart design looks so BAD

It follows LLSIF in being obnoxious about jackhammers but abuses them even more for some reason.

[Tengu B]

I don't know that the characters who show up will actually get voiced. It'd be nice it it happens though

That puchi office is customizable and looks fun and puchi Yukari and Sarina interest me.

As far as the rhythm game part goes I just want to go with easy mode.
And it looks like there's a camera button too, I wonder how much we can play with that.

[ninjamitsuki]

It doesn't look like you can change all of the voices like Live for You or even having everyone sing in any combination. Anzu no Uta just had Anzu singing...
