Yeah, it's been up there a while now. They announced a partnership with Cave to basically rebuild the game several months ago. I was posting on NeoGAF about it because it seemed almost no one else was aware of its progress. I was kind of surprised lol.
The blog has been pretty interesting. Months ago there wasn't terribly much on it I could understand, but they've been adding more and more pictures to it that seem to be of importance. The last few updates seem to deal with the actual character modeling.

Cave Online Entertainment today announced some new details regarding its online RPG Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE Online. Similar to previous series installments, the PC-based title takes place in a post-apocalyptic world. Following the destruction of Tokyo in the year 202X, the survivors have begun to build Shinjuku Babel, a massive tower under the guidance of seven wisemen. In addition to the game's starting point, the underground platform 3, this tower will be one ofthe game's field maps. Cave today also detailed the character creation process. Players can choose between a male and a female character model and then in a second step freely combine various face types and hairstyles. The game will offer more than 200 different kinds of clothes and accessories. A character can be outfitted with 13 of those. Weapons will include katanas, bats, shotguns, and rifles.
Unlike its offline predecessors, Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE Online will employ a real-time battle system. The negotiation system however has been retained. Another series trademark, the fusion of demons has also made the transition into the online world. Following a fusion, the newly created demon now retains the skills of its two "parents".
Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE Online will be available in Japan this winter.
If the shoe fits tie your laces and don't trip.

The characters still look awful...well, not compared to the VERY first models but uh, these ones look ugly as well.
The question is..."Will it be worth playing?"

I'm just wondering if there's even a company out there who would touch it to make it available in English...
Well, it DID get a re-design and all...and does look a little better compared to what they intended to do last time so...maybe?

Shinjuku Babel? Hmm...well, Christian Symbolism Point of Interest alert is going off > . > Watch God pwn it. And Shibuya Babel would be better since it has that TV tower already built.

I actually downloaded that video a while back in its original form. I swear I posted it on the site, but apparently I didn't at all. I'll have to get around to that.
