Do you get more emeralds if you play on the harder chocolate mods?
>>733218043i dont think soyou'll have to use bastards to farm them
>>733213418This game was shit
its good besides the gameplayits so fucking stiff unlike me when im forced into combat
Suda51 might just be the tsui hark of vidya
Suda is so far up his own ass he's finding tonsil stones
>>733218043About to play this game, it's hard mode actually interesting or is it just killing damage sponge enemies with a dildo instead of a sword?
>>733221131>About to play this game, it's hard mode actually interesting or is it just killing damage sponge enemies with a dildo instead of a sword?Whatever you do, do not play it on hard mode.
>>733221131No it's too hard, play on normal mode
>>733221180I picked Orange Chocolate by mistake and have been enjoying it so far. I am really enjoying the combat, with the exception of some bullshit moves by bosses>That slime-covered tough mob thoHe can eat cock and shit.
>>733221352The biggest issue with it is is how little currency you get to throw at the pacman machine. I ended up just hitting a wall on one of the bosses and saying fuck it and just grinding the first boss trial on hard over and over again killing it in <20 seconds for 1k flowsion each run and just clearing the whole board.it made hardmode feel alright actually.
I think they were planning to have Romeo's helmet change often or be customizable, the achievements show so many concept arts of helmets
>>733221440Agreed. Except I used Cheat Engine to give me infinite fuel to get all but a couple items in the board. It's pretty stupid how little currency the game throws at you. Same for red sentry and space debris. This game could be an 8 or 9 if those three things were a bit (a lot) better balanced.
>Except I used Cheat Engine to give me infiniteFAGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT KEEEK
>>733221440>The biggest issue with it is is how little currency you get to throw at the pacman machine.the trick is to equip the drop rate badge and sell bastard seeds instead of appraising them at luna. I didn't have any trouble with cash and I didn't grind at all.
any weapon upgrade paths and which one to prioritize? im currently using the spearalso for some reason i keep forgetting i have lassis and its pain to go back to the ship and sell them to jabroni every time it gets full
>>733221864Lmao u so mad
>>733222223I played with the spear mostly aswell, spear and the shotgun were really optimal, the shotgun becomes really viable when you fully max out your reload speed
Why does Romeo's bike have a passenger carrier?He literally never carried anyone in the whole game.Was it for Juliet?They could have removed it, it makes the bike look less cool.
>>733222606>shotgunits really good for crowd control but im not sure about targeting glowing spots
>>733222250nta can it corrupt the game or something?can you still get achievements if you use it?
>>733221931Unfortunately I didn't think of that so I just beat up the first boss for 30 minutes and was fine for the rest of the game. Initially i never thought to sell my bastards because I was going to go all in on them, until I got the pin that game 50% damage for not having them equipped.I wish I bothered to sell them instead.
>>733215078Prioritize speed mostly for hard mode, Arcadia and the fists are the go to, the bazooka and the star sword whatever are unusable on the latter bosses, you'd want to inflict damage and dodge as quick as possible
>>733222797>nta can it corrupt the game or something?Maybe? I haven't reloaded the save, but I don't think it can. >can you still get achievements if you use it?I am playing a pirated copy, my brother. Achievements are meaningless to me. That being said, getting infinite money to get all the upgrades probably wouldn't affect achievements.
>>733221931>sell bastard seedsany useless bastards, that's good for selling?i heard steal jobs is good for farming
This game has few maps as it is.Why make the forest inaccessible after the first chapter?Also, is it normal to have no music after coming back to the Mall for farming?
Romeo is a 4:3 man.
Moral of the Romeo story? the white devil is the bane of your life
>>733222942you can only sell them when you don't know which ones they are so it's a gamble. I started selling common/rare ones pretty early because I figured I had good bastards for now and needed cash instead. it is kinda funny how bastard farming can fuck you over whereas the leveling minigame lets you reset for free.

>>733224604forgot image
>>733223192Romeo is 21:9 man.
>>733224532We're back to the PS360 era where every Grasshopper game is a Suda game regardless of how much he actually worked on it.
>the girl she tells you not to worry about
>>733224665I beat the game in 21:9 but the mod turns the hub area pitch black between chapters so I spent 20 mins between each chapter just waiting for my bastards to be fully grown
Damn... if only i finished the game on Orange, i would have 100% it already
>>733225003on the bright side, orange chocolate is much more fair on NG+
>>733224839yeah, its annoying. You can just switch resolutions to "fix it" until you go back to the level
>>733220601>tsui harkrecommend some of his films & movies that a sudahead would enjoy, please do not mention any flicks or joints, got no time for those
Phantasm was an interesting psycho since despite manifesting superpowers during the Civil War, he was unable to turn the tide in favor of the Confederates due to being just one guy. So he spends like a 100 years creating over a dozen different armies (criminal organizations) in pursuit of victory and violence only to be defeated by a single man himself.
I think I started Chapter 6 yesterday, taking my time with it as I want to do two runs before Requiem drops. Good gayme, but then again I've liked pretty much all Suda games. Wish Swery was this consistent.
>>733224648It's little soulful details like this that has gone missing from modern games, making them slop.
>>733224824>the death changelings>the doomguy looking Juliet with power armor in the introwhat was the intent behind making 3 of her clones jacked as hell
I suck at games so I die a million times fighting bosses and then I just cheese the revive option on the wheel, is that a mechanic too in hard mode?
>>733225234Watch ''Time and Tide'' and ''Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountain'', don't watch any of the stuff he made with van damme
>>733225576death changeling having half a face like romeo makes me think it was tied to romeo's character while parabellum is juliet because of the heels. they just repurposed them.
I dont get why people complain about Hard mode. I mean it was challenging but not that hard. Just dont mash like a moron so you dont get locked in an animation when you need to dodge or jump.Upgrade your weapons and stats and use your bastards. Hell, most of the bosses are affected by some bastards like the freezing one. I used the mostly the detachable spear and the assault rifle.t. pic related in 3 days
Why is 'violent, selfish idiot x seductive yet evil femme fatale' a popular ship?
what are you're favorite bastards? other than the obligatory healing guy
>>733225610I think it might be the pins you equipped, some of them bump the damage you take
>>733225510Another cool part of the badges is that every one of them has their own description with some lore implications.Like the one at the bottom where its just a dude standing was the town Deadford's serial killer
Is it bad I've been enjoying Inferno more than Romeo?
>>733225864Both of them have heels and Juliet says every clone was just as "real" as her at the end. So I think both of their designs are mostly on her.>>733226037I never stopped using suicide attack once I got it.
>>733226037>obligatory healing guyKeek he is the one bastard that's completely useless, you can't stay idle in front of mobs to heal
>>733226037purifying zone and screamdelica are ones I never remove.
>>733226387>you can't stay idle in front of mobs to healthen use it after you stop fighting, rather than wasting a healing item
>>733225926do you think a fujimoto + suda/GHM game would work?much like q hayashida in sotd?
>>733227868They would need a straight-edge producer to reign in their autism.
>>733225905>the assault rifleis it worth upgrading? at the moment its really weak as hell compared to the other guns
>>733227868You mean an original game or just some CSM adaptation with GHM doing the gameplay?
>>733229793original gamebut a csm game written by fujimbo might also work
>>733229943Something original would work fine then. Probably would have the same workflow of fujimoto doing story and or designs with some Suda input while the rest of GHM handles the actual game.
Fujimoto is a suda clone fermented inside a massive piss jar, this is why he can only produce stuff derivative out of Suda ludos
>>733231638fujimoto is more of a nihei and samura guyi wonder if he did mention suda before
>>733230658I was playing the silver case and you find a lot of weird mangas that stick out like a sore thumb in some areas, kurayami dance, looked it up and it's apparently a manga Suda wrote in collab with a manga artist
koko de resetto ka...
>>733232551>kurayami dance, looked it up and it's apparently a manga Suda wrote in collab with a manga artistisn't that based on his original concept for SoTD; before EA did their usual and made him change the game a bunch of times? I haven't read it yet.
>>733221131The game is pretty easy once you unlock the full kit and make some upgrades. I mean you can still die if you get pushed off or get stunlocked and shit like that, but it's not that difficult or annoying to play.
>>733221686It's not little, the game is so short that by the end of the game you get enough to unlock everything, I managed to max the melee weapon and get all the upgrades in the minigame. If you unlock it early with cheats there will be fuck all to unlock, except badges. I did not have money to buy badges except two.
>>733226280>check steamdb page to see if it's had a sale >the game had a PRICE INCREASEYikes. I guess I'll wait until it's 90% off to try it because it was a massive flop.
The subspace mechanic is the one major blemish on this game and its almost solely because going in and out if takes way too fucking long, if it was instant after the first mysterious man TV viewing it would be so much better, also what the fuck happened to DAH POWAH OF SSD? As charming as the loading screens they are still way too frequent
>>733233254Looked it up a little, not sure if it's the artist's direction but it looks generic,
subspace hills is some of the most unfun dogshit i've ever played in a video game. haha wouldn't it be epic if you had to climb ladders and walk on narrow ledges while avoiding getting sniped and raped by bats? ecks dee. fuck you suda.
I thought subspace was relaxing. Just need to use your mental map. Kinda wish they played with the disappearing/forming walls in combat a little more though.
>>733233825I played with ultrawide and the game fakes loading screens for the subspace transitionYou can see the environment pop in almost instantly on the sides
people got paid to write this meaningless driveli was reading it at first but 2 lvls in realised how much of a waste of time it was
This book ain't got no point to it, like you jus flip the pages around n shit, like look at this WOOOOP ahaha
>>733226321>Clone>Just as realThere were no clones
>>733233825>What happened to SSD'sYou need an NVMe to play new video games apparently
>>733235235>i rove marver, I'm gonna watch za newest marver terebi show on disney prus>oh my godu...i have to make a video game out of this...it wirr serr mirrions of copies...
>>733235167I wish subspace was more like spectral world in soul reaver
So a sequel would probably be about killing Romeos who hate being stuck as the boss? Felt like the post credit scene was a we probably won't get a sequel so here's the idea.>>733221131Felt hard was slightly overturned in how much damage bosses took/gave. But entirely manageable if you learn patterns and don't play stupid. It does make you pay more attention to all the mechanics available but it's no NGB.
how's it doing, is it selling well
>>733213418>Get to the townhall level>Find the StealJobs Bastard>This spirals in me figuring out how to steal and fuse to get every Bastard on the listI knew I was going to break this thing. I still have to fuse the last two Ultras or whatever. I'm kind of dissapointed there's only 3.
>>733235167didn't realise the white stone walls you break in the subspace open paths in the real world not sure if they explained this
>>733218043I wonder if this is a real Chocolate Box. I kind of want to try them.
>>733236042one of the notes near the end said duplicating herself is one of her powers. Ignoring philosophical shit they are all basically clones
>>733238817No real way to know since it's a digital only release. Can probably make some estimates based on rankings, but there's a wide margin of error.
>>733239018Her clones influence the fugitives like Magrus and the Hill but they are not the bosses aside from the ogre in the tutorial level who is her clone
>>733239365It was the 10th best selling game on Steam on the day of release for what it's worth
>>733239591Trackers are putting the number of owners between 30k and 60k
bagjuliet a cute
>>733227868I recall they wanted SotD to be open world as well, NMH is sort of open world but Santa Destroy is pretty empty. I still don’t see what it would add to the experience anyway, Suda’s better at writing weird scenarios that you can experience in bits and pieces.
>>733240589What’s she pointing at?
>>733239541>>733239018They are all herThey are all the real her No that doesn't make senseIt isn't supposed to
God damn this is a dull gameGot to the first boss and I quitsuda should just make movies, his game designs are dogshit
>>733239541>but they are not the bosses aside from the ogre in the tutorial levelThen what were Monday and the reapers?
>>733240886(You)
>>733240171thats like 2 million dollarydoos lets say 1.5 in ps5 sales and 50k in xbox sales. not looking good sudabros...
>>733241554That's pretty optimistic since it has regional pricing. It'd have to sell 60k copies at $50 to generate 3m in revenue on Steam and then Gaben takes 30%.
>>733241829I love suda I bought the game and I hope they make many more but sometimes I wonder how do studios like that survive. With movies from what I get a studio can survive 4 or 5 bombs if they hit it big with one movie every year but grasshopper doesnt even have the rights to many of their games, I dont think they saw any money from the lollipop remaster for example.
>>733242065No, they weren't involved with LC RePop at all and Dragami has full rights on it. I'm genuinely worried about the NetEase stuff. They keep brushing it off as weird speculation, but PinCool is already finding a new owner. Why would they have to shop around publishers for Romeo when NetEase published the Shadows of the Damned Remaster?I suspect that other release this year is a small game to just get out the door and help generate some cash. Fortunately, Japanese dev costs aren't ridiculous, but I don't want them to spiral into smaller and smaller games, kind of like what is happening with NIS.
Romeo feels like one of those cancelled games you were wondering about but it got released somehow. like damn what would scalebound had been like and then platinum would release a half baked version of it. that's romeo
>>733242479Some anon in the previous threads mentioned that Grasshopper for the first time in their life fully own Romeo which means all the gains they make for this one goes to them unlike Killer7 and NMH which marvelous owns
>>733240886these digits
I don't understand the criticism of light and heavy attacks, that's the backbone of beats em all, what's the superior form of combat?
>>733213418DEAD MANFIGHTER OF THE LIVE MAN
>>733243174That anon is completely wrong. NetEase owns the trademark per the uspto.gov website and has full copyrights according to the in game credits. Grasshopper does fully own The Silver Case, Shadows of the Damned and Killer is Dead IP though.
>>733244792Really? It’s hard to imagine EA letting any ip go.
>>733244792Yet they are the publishers, how does this work?
>>733245007>>7332452241) Front facing store listings are not always accurate. The eShop and Steam list PinCool as the publisher for Pritto Prisoner, but it's actually a company called Initiate Gameshttps://finance.yahoo.com/news/pincool-announces-pritto-prisoner-outrageous-185600426.html2) IP ownership is not publishing is not developing. The other anon might be right that Grasshopper is bringing home most of the money as the publisher, but NetEase has control over what happens next barring some rights transfer in the background (entirely possible). Sometimes companies who own IP license them out to other publishers. Bayonetta is a famous example. Owned by Sega, published by Nintendo. Grasshopper has always owned the Shadows of the Damned IP and it's in the reveal trailer. That was part of EA's creators program. Devs got to keep IPs, but EA got publisher rights (and the bulk of the money) for 10 years. After that expired Grasshopper was able to do the Remaster and whatever they wanted with that entry, but also why they were able to do Damned Dark Knight in TSA.
Kept pushing and finally did the boss rush bros, felt so good, it's like when you finally beat the water temple
>>733240886The way. Unless you come bsack when you don't need do, then she's misguiding you.
>>733245224>>733245689I think they shopped the game around to publishers actually but nobody was interested so they just self-published.
Never played let it die but this OST is a pure topazhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IF-hC3OHQo
>>733246086The game was kinda neat but from what I remember it's built so it's not possible to beat it without P2W or insane grinding. So you can only go up to a certain point and then you're blocked. So I never got too far up the tower. I'm not sure if the game is currently any better or still the same bullshit.
>>733246000I expect him to team with Devolver on at least game
>>733246086when the fuck is the SP version coming out?
>>733246607Devolver are massive faggots, they ruined Shadow warrior
>>733247297Hopefully it's the next game they teased to be released later this year
>>733249034Nah, that's a GungHo/Supertrick thing. The Grasshopper game is either a remaster (FSR or KiD) or that 2D beat'em up they showed off at Momocon 2024
Get a load of this skull
>>733249694FSR remake would be so good. Killer is Dead getting a remaster when the original version is still on steam would suck, but I guess it could be for the consoles.
>>733249768I didn't realize you could let it go back and forth, I thought if you let it go over temp you were screwed.
Steroids, really suda?
>>733250114I expect it to be FSR since he entered negotiations with a company about it years ago and he's expressed a desire to more of a reboot of KiD as The Killer is Dead, but if they need quick cash, I can see a straightforward KiD remaster with Engine Software since they worked out the UE3 kinks when bringing SotDHR to everything the other year.
>>733246543Let's say you wanna play it, how much do you have to fork to keep goin?
>>733250414Test is naturally present in your body. If it were called trenbolone then that would be a steroid.
>>733250603I don't remember mayne, I played the game when it first came out on PC in 2018.
>>733250603>>733251397Oh but also, they are making an offline version, so it might be best to wait for that over playing the current f2p version.
>>733250603You can get to the end with about 50 bucks, but you might as well wait for the offline version at this point
>RES 9 is 4 hours longYou know what i am actually glad i bought Romeo instead
i started on orange chocolate and am kinda regretting it lol. i'm at city hall so i think i'll just push through but man enemies are so tanky it's just gay
>>733251907You got trolled into starting with orange? even on Normal i kept getting exposed by the spiders minefield enemies
>>733215786Juliet is practically giving Romeo an under the table footjob in this scene.
>>733244792>>733245224>>733245689>Suda is still owned by chink EAI should have just pirated instead of giving money to one of the worst publishers of all time. I swear I remember seeing Grasshopper go independent or some shit.
>>733251907Geckos can be one-shot with the basic bazooka. That alone makes it worth the investment.
>>733253506The game is being self-published by Grasshopper, but they are still owned by Netease at the moment. Netease isn't expecting the game to make money so they let them publish the game themselves, and will likely send Grasshopper out on their own any day now.
>>733253809Genuinely confused by this, if grasshopper is deving and publishing the game then wtf does netease do? what do they bring to the table?
>>733253759Shotgun can do the same.
>>733253809It's self-published, netease is getting jackshit, Suda talked about it before the releasehttps://youtu.be/4bDyifq49Jc?t=210
>>733253951Netease funded it for a majority of the dev time, but it looks like they're cutting their losses on it now. They cut off any further funds for development and marketing like 6 months ago. Everything since has been out of Grasshopper's empty pockets.
>>733249768>they fucking bounce backwhy did i never learn this? does the game tell you and im just blind
Sorry, I don't care after how bad NMH3 was
>>733220601>>733225630Watched time and tide and it was almost kino. I had no idea what was happening once the south american characters were introduced but it had some cool shots and sounds.
>>733254498Cared enough to cry about it
This boss rules, people just don't like having to experiment and learn shit
>>733254663Yeah, I really liked Suda51, it sucked seeing what happened to him.If I wasn't a fan I wouldn't care.
>>733213418OP, I mean faggot,you need to do hallway beatemups for 15 minutes to get 5 minutes of SUDAfed zanyness
Grasshopper has a system where they make a serious game then a goofy game, killer7 (conspiracy theory game) > nmh1 (jackass the game).Since Romeo was on the serious side, the next one will be goofy
>>733253951>>733254148>>733254343NetEase still owns the Romeo IP
>>733254792Crying bitch lol
>>733254792NMH3 was a fluke. Over ambition and covid completely fucked it up. Hope its the end for NMH in general. Grasshopper needs to move on from that series.>>733255101I haven't seen anything that says that they own it.
>>733255509The actual game says they own it. You can even go look up the trademark yourself (https://tmsearch.uspto.gov/search/search-information). It's Pending, so maybe it is getting transferred, but right now it's under NetEase.
>>733254498Romeo is way better than NMH3, I'll give you that much.>>733254663>>733255140Fans like you do infinitely more harm to Suda than a guy having reservations after NMH3.
>>733255989>It's Pending, so maybe it is getting transferred,Guess we'll find out after fiscal reports happen because that's probably when Netease is going to get rid of Grasshopper. At least Grasshopper will still be making money off of publishing the game even if they don't own the IP itself.
>>733255989>the sight of her playing with cheeky pre-schoolersYou just know
>>733256312How long did they wait to announce NetEase bought GhM from GungHo? I thought it was more than a quarter later, but I guess no one was looking at those Financials closely because it was unexpected. I guess the end of the FY plays a part though.
>SUDA'D
>>733254724>>733257665Despite the whole level preceding it being shit from an ass, I thought the final boss was fairly easy. If nothing else, you should be able to cheese it with bastards by that point.
>>733257665>>733257937The last level and boss reminded me a lot of TSA's CIA level and Juvenille. Really similar in structure. I might be the only person that enjoyed both of them.
>>733257937Depends, on bitter chocolate he is a nightmare
it took me until 90% through the game to notice Nintendo Pictures in the credits.
The gameplay wouldn't be as fast had they adopted the soulslike stamina bar system or the sekiro parry thing, it really feels good when you blitz through a hord of enemies with a bloody summer
Are little sisters really this jealous?
Any of you unlocked the ludicrously expensive last upgrade yet?
>>733259006SameApparently they're a rebranded mocap studio
>>733259852Yeah I appreciate an action game not having those mechanics for once. I'm pretty tired of seeing them and how all other devs seem to think they absolutely need at least one of them in their games.
>>733254724I didn't have that hard of a time with the OP as fuck badge you get in the last dungeon that doubles your damage with no penalty. And by that point I'm fully upgraded so I'm healing a lot. Thankfully, bosses get staggered just like regular mobs so you can just spam R1 on cooldown.
>>733251907Stick with it lad, the game gets a lot easier once you get some upgrades. Use the rifle to target the weak points of the enemies.
Do we ever go back to the FBI mansion? That place was comfy.
>>733259883Literally trying to save her big brother from an evil witch.
I feel like the localization has taken a huge downturn for a while now. Seeing repeated use of "Hella" and "yolked" make me cringe. I'm not necessarily opposed to either, but having multiple characters all talk the same way is kind of lame.
>>733268245The game only has an English dub, so that was the intended dialogue it seems.
>>733268435Suda doesn't know English so it's still located from his writing to the VA.
>>733268245I was more fixated on the opposite problem that the direction and grammar are extremely stilted and autistic like in NMH3. Suda got in with the wrong people and now his games sound like a fucking Animax English dub.
>>733227868Personally I think a Suda51/GHM + Douman Seiman would work better
>>733268245>>733268435>>733268842>>733269034All localization is by James Mountain. He's been Grasshopper and Suda's designated guy for it ever since he localized The Silver Case in 2016. He's also Suda's interpreter for any english interviews. Did the narration voiceovers at the beginning of each chapter in Romeo.This game did however have a different voice director from from who they usually had for games like Killer7 and NMH.
>>733213418Mother fuckers complain about birds and I'm just here like BIIIIIIITCH GET NEBUCHADNEZZAR'D
>>733270480They're pitch black I can't see them until they're up my fucking ass.
just beat it on orange chocolate. it was great. one of suda's better games imothe after credits cutscene was some wild shit. no clue why they put that nonsense in there but I am all for it
>>733269771Yeah, he seems like a nice enough guy from the Grasshopper Directs and all and I appreciate him not shying away from some colorful language in TSC, but it also doesn't feel like he's improving a lot. Willing to chalk some of that up to him just having to work on a ton of stuff himself which is why some characters sound samey
>>733270601>click R3>hold R2>Keep clicking R3 anytime something diesI really just shoot through them. I've been splatted a few times, but it was before I realized I needed to take them seriously.
This has to be the most bullshit final boss suda has ever made wtf am I missing? It feels for like the final two levels his gf dumped him and he decided to make the most bullshit annoying fuck shit ever
>>733225610The wheel? Is this not avaliable on orange chocolate?
>>733233825That cant be real I mean it cant be
>>733225610It’s funny I got confused a few threads ago when someone mentioned that and I unknowingly replied ‘isn’t that in NMH3’? The wheel is not a feature in the above normal difficulties, definitely surprised me when I started over on normal and got that. Was really annoyed because I don’t want to get an extra advantage I want to beat the boss fair and square
>>733270769As soon as I saw that after credits shit I came here immediately with questions cause it felt like it just had completely nothing to do with what was just laid out in all the character epilogues Other anons telling me just an alt timeline was good enough for me
>>733254498Don't cry, Travis.
>>733272923>is that ONE troll attack? help me sudamanlet me help you out>shoots blue at youmove to the side, don't dodge. dodging causes you to stop for half a second and get hit>shoots exploding tetrahedrons at youshoot them down, they're really slow>melee range clock hands attackjump the first two then dodge to the left or right>spirit bombshoot the spirit bomb>chanelling a circle underneathrun away>teleports to the middle then channelsrun to the middle and stun>touhou attackrun a reasonable distance away, single dodge to the left or right just before the orange balls hit you
>>733273935>alt timelinedont think so it just takes place really far into the future. intergalactic naked (yakumo) makes romeo the new spacetime king and he eventually gets corrupted by the emerald flowsion (getter rays), then luna becomes his successor in the fbi and they do battles. it's a lot like the killer7 ending where kun lan and harman are still fighting way into the future. it ties into that note at the end of the game that says that time isn't a circle it's a sphere and that the only way to stop space-time singularities is to create a loop. so basically to stabilize spacetime they created a new loop where romeo plays the role of the king and luna plays the role of romeo. romeo is kinda getting manipulated by everyone the whole game. intergalactic naked was manipulating romeo with the nightmares and juliet was manipulating romeo and intergalactic naked. silversox was probably manipulating romeo into becoming the spacetime king as well
>>733274686The biggest complaint from me was most of the games bosses required aggression with some light defence. This boss was PURE defence. If you were running juggernaut the entire fight was basically "two punch and run away or else youll be stuck in a combo you can't escape from and die instantly" (her damage on orange without new game plus was insane, fully upgraded romeo and jugg)
>>733274686To be fair everyone online thinks its a bullshit final boss, troll attack aside. If the animation cancel for dodging was even half a second earlier it would of been fine. Then again, suda has a history of having ass final bosses.
>>733274840i just ran at him and stunlocked him with the greatsword
>>733274840I've beaten the game with all weapons so far and can confirm, despite the dodge and weave combo of the fists being the best thing to use against all bosses, its an ABSOLUTE hindrance when fighting the naked. You essentially have to play it as a turn based game.
the ost slapswhy the fuck is there no album yet?
>>733269763not badbut douman's design is kinda cartoony but might work if GHM makes a game around those designs, dont know if people will like itanother option is if suda and douman will make a manga
>>733213418>Mfw Fused Reanimated's boss theme Not gonna lie, he's the only boss I felt bad for. Sure, his means were heinous as fuck, but all he wanted to do was bring his children back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WicV4pD10hwMagrus is a close second, but he was hard carried by TheBlack's journalAlso, what the hell was up with the shadow figure in the training facility? I thought it was SilverSox, but it couldnt've been him. Since Romeo hears the car's engine a couple of seconds later and it was him. Plus, I don't know if I'm making shit up here, but I swear there was a door you could interact with but was locked in the boss' room. >>733215078Spazer/gauss cannon. Honestly, what's gonna carry you the most are your bastards. Freeze shot/TP bastards at max level are the way to go. You'll beat the boss like a pinata for a straight minute if you mix them up with a 3-stack of bloody summers.
vide gam
>>733275039i just booted it up with juggernaut and you can just mash heavies and bloody summer on him, i was only using 2/4 bastards as well
>>733275635>Spazer/gauss cannonwhich stats upgrade to prioritize?
>>733276156I'd say; >Damage>Blood amount>Bloody Summer>StaggerI placed stagger last because I don't think it really matters much if you're using the spazer. Your goal should be to get your bloody summer gauge up as soon as possible and dish out as much damage as you can. As for the Yggdrasil, pure damage. I never paid too much attention to the other 3 stats as I used my ranged weapons to bust enemy weakpoints. Also, if you wanna grind the currency, equip a couple of stealjob bastards at max level and grind the mall stage. You can farm epic seeds in the mall stage by sending your bastards out and hitting the save station. It'll refill your bastards/reset the mobs. Just make sure the stealjobs' beam hit different zombies, because you can only get 1 seed per mob.>>733274760There's a tokio letter that really got me to think about "which" grandpa Romeo had on his back. In the letter, Tokio mentions that the "real" Benjamin's got good intentions. Why did silversox "disable" grandpa until Romeo beat the boss in the training facility? Add on top the fact that Bluemountain was weary of Grandpa in a couple of conversations.
>>733277085thanks anoncurrently im maining the spear ever since i heard it has a quick bloody summer build up but not sure if the damage is better than the other weaponswill try out stealjobs once i get at least a 2nd copy for it, i keep getting the fucking poison ones
>>733277180I never gave the spear a try so I can't really comment on it, but I'm sure its just as serviceable. >Not sure if the damage is better than the other weaponsWhen in doubt, check the weapon stats in the upgrade menu. Just pick whatever you find comfortable. You're way ahead of the curve with all of the upgrades/mats you've stacked from your first play-through anyway>t. Somebody who beat the game on bitter on his first run.As for the bastard situation, just focus on leveling up your stealjobs' to lvl. 100 across the field. you'll get a handful of epic seeds that range between lvl 30 - 40, so you can use them as fodder to level up your main bastards and/or sell them for 800 coins each.
>>733277085I think it's as simple as benjamin is romeo. he saves his past self which causes paradoxes and fractures the space time. and because his past self is a dead man the only way he can exist is as a weird hologram. and he disappears in chapter 8 because a new future emerges for romeo where he becomes JEH 2.
>start last chapter>mfw I guess this is it for me
>>733269771Oh so that's who's narrating the proverbs. I was wondering if it was some rando they found on the streets. Guy can't go two words without slurring the entire sentence.
What was the deal with that resonating pin anyway?
>judd nelsonhuh
>25th ward theme playing in jabroni's storepretty kino
>>733279751>resonating pinisnt that only for sumio's training mission?
>>733268245There is no localization, it's only in English, not a weeb but i can't stand American voice acting, i think it's from the school of voice acting that was slapped on Yakuza, it wasn't jarring in NMH cause the travis VA has an iconic voice
>>733283005it's in the key items the rest of the game. It's also on the jacket with other pins.
Should i leave hunting for badges until the end of the game?
Bros I just beat the game, holy fuck I love this feeling.
>>733286665Some of them are trial rewards so yeah it's best to do it after you've fought every story boss
Where were the band kids?
Is it me or the game has a piss filter?
>>733254724I beat this boss first try, orange chocolate.
>>733287402I did notice one in the subspace sections but not anywhere else
>>733286829Got you, i did a couple of trials on normal, will leave the hard mode ones until the end
>>733288451The city hall level has some piss color tints to it
>"will you explain shit to me now gramps?">"well..."the fuck was this light and the background engine sound after that? I thought the intro was just spliced together random garbage but it's starting to freak me out on subsequent playthroughs.
>people still asking aimless questions the game laughs at them for caring about Suda hates you.
>>733213418If I loved Flower, Sun and Rain and Killer7 is this on the same level of depth?Or just only style and no substance like NMH?Basically, is Suda51still only a hack with nothing to say?
>>733290291This game has open disdain for people trying to piece together a coherent narrative, which makes it funnier that so many people are still trying.
>>733290291*farts*
does the ending imply that Romeo became Luna's "julliet" and she's now going down the same path he did, endlessly killing all the aspects of her brother that she didn't fall in love with endlessly pining for the false perception she fell in love with?
>>733269763I wish he would be less of a yuri troon and go back to posting Voynich kino.
>>733291317It's in a parallel universe, it says UC something in the date while the story we play is in AD, Luna gets married and has kids in the real world
>>733291317Jesus Do you know what the ending implies?That Grasshopper really loves the Gundam UC timeline.Literally nothing else.
>>733291428Is it true that Gcucks is part of the UC timeline now?
>>733291413okay but in an alternate reality she does want to fuck romeo tho?>>733291428no i'm pretty sure that luna wants that starglazer dick
>>733290243The last night.
>>733291724It's just a random fun scene they wanted It means nothingIt's connected to nothing There is no coherent narrative in this game There is a vague setup for missions that falls to pieces at the end and the game laughs at you for wanting an ending or explanations for anything that happened.
>>733291852sure but it's out of their hands now and in mine, and i'm thinking that suda is based and incest pilled
>>733291852>laughs at youWhy do you keep spouting this, samefag? When does the game laugh at the player?
>>733291953>Wasn't paying attention to JEH>Wasn't paying attention to Juliet literally calling him boring for asking>Wasn't paying attention to the last intergalactic naked The term "media literacy" sucks but it's pretty relevant here.You lack any.
>>733292125I paid attention to all of that and I never got the impression the game was laughing at me.I see, I lack media literacy. Thank you, Reddit.
>>733292198>I paid attention Clearly not, since you're still trying to slam together mutually exclusive partial explanations given alongside characters literally going "lol who cares about answers"
>>733291029that part reminded me of lot of picrel
>>733292668Tfw a chaos sympathizer starts blabbering his mouth

>>733291029>Die, RACIST SCUM!!Bravo Suda.
>>733293126It took me a while to realise you have to take the toilet instead of the main exit to escape the 8 bit level
>>733293298You didn't notice the newly opened door after inputting the cheat code? Are you the guy who keeps saying the game means nothing and you shouldn't even trying to derive some meaning from any of it?
>>733293382Ok fair enough, tell me the hidden meaning of it all
>>733293126>>733293382>LOL GALO SENGEN GUYS SO TOPICAL SO TIMELY SO KINOThat part sucked and was made a million times worse by being unskippable

>>733293487>>733293487We both know they're full of shit and will never reply, anon.
the job?Romeo is dead
>>733295993>...please tell me what i'm missing...
>>733296242cope and seethe
>>733296313you know best
where the fuck can i get a stealjob seed?
>>733213418This was the last straw, Grasshopper.Your games are always a mix of fun and jank but the fun levels are way too low and the jank levels are way too high. The smug pretentiousness is off the fucking charts on this one.Killer 7 is godlikeNMH1/2 were very flawed but fun games that were forgiven a lot of major missteps and purposeful bullshit because they were just that charmingRomeo isn't fun, isn't charming, and isn't a good game. It's all of the worst issues of every other Grasshopper game cranked up to 11.
>>733296413I think they're random from Rare seeds? I only really started getting them somewhere after Ch5
ive never seen someone this hostile to suda/ghm in other past ktp threads, i remember making a k7 thread years ago, it was chill and mostly just anons talking about its connection to ktp games
>>733296413The Athena side dungeons
>>733296703Ive never seen someone cry so hard for so long about other people not liking the very niche thing they like, especially while internalizing it as one person and not a variety of people with the same complaints because the game has problems
>>733296608>Killer 7 is godlikethat's not FSR
>>733296756>the game has problemsno shit, all suda games are like thatbut reading the same shit every other thread is just annoying
>>733296764No one gives a shit about grasshopper's VN's m8.Anyone talking for a single goddamned second about kill the past is a turbonerd so far out the mainstream that their opinions literally don't matter>>733296841you could always go find a hugbox discord server or forum, it really seems like you're looking for something very different from 4chan. This is not your heckin' comfy PHPBB.
>>733296608personally i thought it was fun and charming enough to go play another suda game immediately after
>>733296608NMH3 was bad but I think people just chalked it up to being rusty and having no time/budgetTurns out that kind of was their best effort, actually.
>>733296703I think it's either a remnant of the NMH3 shitposters or just one of those attracted to new releases in general
>>733296912>"the game is shit">"yeah you keep telling the same thing in every other thread">"this is not your heckin' comfy PHPBB"i know we're in /v/, but this is just pathetic
>>733297097>>733297071>these anons invented a thread boogeyman to rail against because they're so fragile that the idea of people shitting on thing they like is ego-destroyingYes, this is pathetic.All that's left for you to become like the biggest schizos on /co/ is to name your boogeyman.
>>733259883>dat shoulder rigging holy shit
>>733296703People get mad when they don't get how something works. And because deep down they know they're missing something, they stick around to figure it out (spewing cheap potshots all the while).
>>733296912>Anyone talking for a single goddamned second about kill the past is a turbonerd so far out the mainstream that their opinions literally don't matterseriously?
>>733259883I want her
>>733297224>b-but we're on 4chan!Yesand even here people that know Suda for KTP instead of No More Heroes or MAYBE Killer 7 are turbo spergsKing spergs among sperglords
>>733297295>King spergs among sperglordsso typical people you see on /v/?also check this out
>>733297380>so typical /v/?Anon typical /v/ is an emotionally stunted 22 year old playing cawadooty and gacha, but even in 2006 when this site was anime nerds that had been kicked off of SomethingAwful we still weren't so down bad for Suda that we'd suck off Flower Sun and RainI didn't stutter, nigga, people into Grasshopper's VN's are freaks.
>>733297498Filtered!
>>733297183>muh boogyemanwhatevershit the thread all you want but hearing the same complaint every single thread is just annoying
>>733297183LMAO right? I got accused of being the resident troll the other day. These anons seem to want these threads to be a circlejerk or something. BTW I've enjoyed just about every GHM game I've played and hated this one so you dickrider shit heads can fuck off.
>>733297536Take your meds faggot
>>733297498>>733297380>also read this book I wrotelol no>>733297536Know what's annoying? When some faggot kid can't stand the idea that people have differing opinions and need to angrily construct a golem to project their insecurities onto.
>>733297380No killer is dead?
>>733297183I just said I think. I wasn't fully on board with pointing fingers at anyone who says something bad about the game as even I have my grievances with it; but getting defensive like this is just proving everyone else's claims.
>>733296239No More Romeo is Dead Strikes Again 7
>>733297498>Grasshopper's VN's are freaks/v/ sometimes has ktp threads just discussing suda's VNsi dont know what's your issue with it
>>733297594no>>733297604>When some faggot kid can't stand the idea that people have differing opinions and need to angrily construct a golem to project their insecurities onto.i'll keep doing it again, then even if i dont fully like the game
>>733297609it's in the miscthe image might not be the updated version
>>733297545what did you post?
>>733221686What do you mean so little? I found myself relatively maxed out by the end of the game and I didn't grind a thing and didn't even touch the boss rematch timed missions. I only did one run of each of the Athene Palaces difficulties too. AND I skipped almost every single enemy in the final level. It really shouldn't matter much considering how little emerald it gives you but I also entirely ignored the chicken katsu cooking. So I sold every single item and ingredient sans Sentrey for a little extra. I found myself maxed on hp, damage, healing. Gun damage, etc.Are you sure your pathing just isn't good? Often times I would do large rewinds because I noticed I could more efficiently gather what I already had + more if I made a different turn.
>>733297674>but getting defensive like this is just proving everyone else's claims.Of all the dumb ways modern kids don't understand basic critical thinking this is the fucking worst.You say some ignorant shit like "vaccines cause autism!" and when you get called a retard you go "aha! You called me a retard, proving me correct!">>733297773>sometime freaks post on /v/I'm aware, you're doing it right now!
>>733298002I said I didn't like the game and proceeded to get jumped by a bunch of spastics like what's been happening to any anon that's criticized the game. Doesn't matter if you make an a mild or aggressive critique, you're the same person or maybe part of a horde with a vendetta against suda/ghm
Who revved the sperg?
>>733298236Gomen
>>733298090>I'm aware, you're doing it right now!surebut you're acting surprised that some anons here play suda's KtP vnson my side, i'm actually more surprised that some anons only played NHM1/2/3, LP chainsaw, KiD, and K7, never played the silver case games
Are people really confused as to why passionate gamers would be angry about this game that runs like shit and is even more frustrating than NMH3?Have any of you taken five seconds to see how people are reacting to playing the game on twitch? Pretty much every single one of them starts getting viscerally pissed off in the first City Hall stage. Between the game running terribly and every player getting lost after the third key and them realizing the combat isn't going to change any further it's a coin flip if they drop the game completely. The opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy.
>>733298494>but you're acting surprised that some anons here play suda's KtP vnsNo, I'm really not. For a VN-lover you seem to have trouble with reading comprehension.I'm not surprised at all that there are a few ultra-spergs obsessed with KTP on /v/, I just think their opinion is worthless and lightyears away from anything remotely resembling popular consensus.
>>733298628You are a single personWhy would you ever care about popular consensus
>>733298494They are quite long and require multiple paythroughs to finally get the full picture, i still haven't played 25th ward but the first one was so complicated to fully get in desu since it deviates from the main investigation on Kamui to the side stories all over like the story with the kid and his classmate
>>733298519>even more frustrating than NMH3?actually i've never played nhm3 because it looks bad>ow people are reacting to playing the game on twitch?i never watch twitch>every single one of them starts getting viscerally pissed off in the first City Hall stageoh yeah the navigation sucks>Between the game running terribly and every player getting lost after the third keyit stutters at some areas but i didnt really have much problem with the navigation other than enemies spawning each time and ganking up on me whenever i try to exploreoverall it's an okay suda game, the characters cool, i guess
>>733298628>I just think their opinion is worthless and lightyears away from anything remotely resembling popular consensus.but we're in a suda game thread, and the new game has ktp characters, which is still an on-topic discussion for the thread
>>733298713>People that like the Grasshopper VN's are a tiny contingent of absolute freaks and I don't care what they think about anything>B-BUT IT'S ON TOPIC...ok?
>>733298494I'm not enough of a Suda/Grasshopper zealot to bother with a game in a genre that doesn't interest me just because they worked on it. That's just how I am with things, even with other devs. Played every MGS but never Snatcher or Policenauts.
>>733298519>Streamers are dropping the game halfwayGood
>>733299050>...ok?what's the problem then?i know you dont give a shit about suda's vn games but it is on topic for the thread
>>733298628Idk man it's feeling more and more like you got filtered by a game that you wanted to like, and instead of trying to put in an effort to appreciate it you're wasting time sperging out on an imageboardIf you want to represent the popular consciousness so bad you can go pick up NBA2K or Fifa. You don't though, that's why you picked up another Suda game, you know that's a cheap out
>>733298494The KTP VNs have a barrier that filters the casuals and the normgroid cattle
>>733299050Two different people bro
>>733299234Have you considered reading the posts you're replying to?>>733299327Ditto>>733299263>If you want to represent the popular consciousness so badDitto againI'm beginning to understand how you all could stomach Suda's VN's. You don't actually read, you just kind of drag your eyes over the words and replace them with whatever you feel.
>>733299450>Have you considered reading the posts you're replying to?okay reading back i assume this is your main point >>733296912>No one gives a shit about grasshopper's VN's m8
for meit's still flower, sun, and rain
Damn, it was the resident "read again" schizo complaining about being labeled a thread boogeyman. What a coincidence.
>>733299704it's funny how he got filtered with the ktp games
>>733299704And the boogeyman is namedThread has officially hit the event horizon into a schizo circlejerkUsually that takes weeks but this game is shit so I'm not surprised genuine discussion immediately dried up.
>>733299780>event horizon into a schizo circlejerkyou'll be surprised there was a guy who kept seething at suda during the game's release thread
The OSTs are really good but they suffer from bad audio mixing, it's completely overshadowed by the battle sound effects
>>733299450please reply >>733299234
>cannot sell bastard seeds once appraisedfucking why?
>>733299694
>>733227868I would only trust Grasshopper and Suda with a Chainsaw Man game.It's right up his fucking alley.You press A to kickstart his chainsaw heart.And you can loose limbs while fighting and are forced to pick them up.Hell, maybe you can even lose half of your body and still have to fight.Think about, A Chainsaw man game is the most Suda coded game ever.He already did an ultraviolent anime game.If he only he was willing to do it.
People still like Chainsaw Man?That shit fell off a cliff the moment Katana man showed upThat was years ago
>>733302089You fucking wish.Keep calling Reddit everything you don't like.I like it and so does the majority of people.If you don't you are just an schizophrenic straw man.Got it?
>>733303101>Keep calling Reddit everything you don't like.I didn't call anything reddit, kiddo, that's all you projecting.
>>733301969yeah i can see itbut fujiman is still busy with part 2 but i'm hoping those two will collab someday with an original game
