Another Square Enix flopped trash LMAO
the only marketing these games seem to get is people laughing that they failed, i never hear about them until then
>>741391890>physical>in the 2020s
>>741391804it looks good but i ain't paying $60. i'll wait for a steam sale.
>>741392107yeah I'm in the same boat this looks like something that should be 30 bucks at launch it failing is good for me since it'll go on discount faster
The demo was alright. But, I'm only willing to pay $35 max for this rpgmaker game.
>>741391804Good afternoon, ESL-kun. In English, "trash" is an uncountable noun. You can say "more trash" but you can't say "another trash." Best of luck on your English learning journey.
>shartnuvo for pixelshit with a billion filters on it
>>741392107So you are saying you are poor and don't support good games.
>>741392620oh shit, i didn't even know it had denuvo. i'll wait for a crack then.
>$60 and denuvo for indie-tier pixel shitHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>741391804I'm all for new ips but this game looks like the definition of a 7/10
>>741391804>b-but the Team Asano, the savior of vidyaLMAO
remember when people said they wanted AA games
>>741391804they really couldn't come up with a better name huh
>>741391804this shit has 70 steam reviews. lol
>>741391804can /v/ just once wait for more than 24 hours after birth to call something a flop? that word has lost so much meaning over here
>>741391804I don't know why they keep pricing Team Asano's games the way they do. They've never made anything worth more than $30-$40.
>>741391804It's literally Link to the Past if it came out today, fantastic game for a niche audience.
>>741399972it looks like aids.
>>741400027eh, the way it looks is the most of the game's issues, if you're into HD-2D you're in for a real treat, Adventures of Elliot has the real potential to overtake Final Fantasy in prominence, it's that good
It certainly never looked like it was worth $60 to me. I'll pick it up when it goes on sale. It's a 7/10 game from the looks of it, and you REALLY have to like HD-2D games.
>>741398203I expect because Squeenix knows most people just buy these games when they are on sale instead of raw dog $70+ dollars normally unless they are completely desperate to play a game now rather than wait on a sale.
>>741391804Who would buy this at full price (or rather at all)? Terrible decision.
They keep adding up...
>>741397758have you missed the part where shit posters were saying they want SE to make an AAAA turd based game? They are virtue signaling and SE knows they won't actually buy what they claim to want.
>>741392938this game isn't good lmao
>>741397758I want 3D AA games not shit they could have made better looking for cheaper on the SNES
>another sloppy ARPG with shit combatPass. I am one of the few people who can stomach the 2D-HD shit but I won't suffer bad combat on top of ot.
>>741409305What's Baldur's Gate 3 on? 15 million?
don't reply to me retard. BG3 doesn't play like any other japanese game.
I genuinely wonder if it would've done better going by The Exploits of Chad: The Thundercock Tales or some shit instead of ELLIOT.
>>741410034No I agree, it's actually fun.
>>741410034>231 votesi kinda can't believe you post this in every seethe thread as if it's some massive Wlike how unwell are you at this point?lmao
>>741410034>china and sea linked up to own the wh*te mans game on vee!ok bro this is epic
>>741410380I don't think a name change could have saved a game this bad, but it is weird that a company that calls its protagonists Squall, Zidane, Tidus and so on has gone over to Clive and now Elliot. It sounds so anti-fantasy.But there again this is Square Enix.
>>741397758I think people were expecting them to be good as well to be honest...
Can't be worse than modern Final Fantasy.
>>741391804what a bunch of LOSERS lmaothey need to take a hint and fawk off already
>>741397758Price it like a AA game then instead of almost full price.
i am pretty sure square enix is immune to making good games at this point
>>741409305Unlike all those people who brought action games like The Adventures of Elliot?
>>741411003Give it back Jamal.
>>741391804esl with Square Enix Derangement Syndrome, news at 11
>>741411021I don't think we're getting a sales announcement for this game either Rebirthbros...
How is the actual gameplay, story, and characters?
>>741391804what kind of game is it even. 'its like X but with elements of Y' will work for me
Oh the guy who defends Final Fantaflop is also trying to pin this shit up? Kek.
>>741410913SE always does this garbage>Harvestella looks like a PS3 game: $60>Fantasian Neo Dimension is a literal mobile game port: $50Shocking no one buys this stuff...
>>741411123Same shit you've seen done better by others.
>>741411157Is this a Japanese thing? Or are they trying to compensate for shit sales on their other IPs?
>>741397758Yeah, like E33. This looks RPGMaker tier, except stripped of the unhinged writing/game design of actual RPGMaker games.
>>741391804nice game sir
>>741411254Hey don't drag RPG Maker into this. You can make good games on the RPG Maker engine.Square Enix just makes it look hard.
>>741411247Capcom, Atlus, Konami, Falcom and Sega don't seem to have this problem. And yes I chose to name the companies I did to see if I can trigger the autist.
>>741411345name 1 (uno) good rpgmaker game i'll wait
>>741411345>You can make good games on the RPG Maker engine.That's what I said. Take MGQ:P with its 200+ hour runtime and hundreds of jobs; utterly autistic and unhinged (in a good way)
>>741411247its a square thing, theyre fucking retarded, they really think they can port shit like tactics 30 years later with content missing and charge 50 dollars for it, completely delusional higher ups
>>741391804wow such boring character designs and its not the artstyles fault, triangle strategy had a similar one and some great designs
>>741391804If Elliot had a class/job system some stupid niggers here would be eating it up as the best zelda-like ever made because of said system being added to a Zelda-like.
>>741411714Triangle Strategy had a lot of neat ideas and was pretty fun to boot. They should have made another one.
>>741411623>content missingWhat was it missing? I don't buy remakes.
>>741411904was the fun before or after the 2 hour cutscenes?
>>741391804>20hours at best >$60>2dhd
>>741391804Square is retarded for pricing it at $60.
>>741411896The game's fatal flaw is it doesn't feel as fluid as it could be, almost like it's a high definition Gameboy game. Even when nobody is willing to admit it, the more modern a game feels, the better.
>>741391804Square Enix put more money into the Evercold trailer than they did for the marketing budget of this entire game
there are ten trillion games in existence who tf cares about this one
>>741409305Nobody says this
>>741391804Title sounds like mobile game, lot of people will ignore it just because of that
>>741410034I love how completely and utterly E33 lives rent free in people's heads. You troons don't actually think it was astroturfed. Nobody does. E33 barely even had a marketing budget and got fuck all exposure before release. It spread 100% organically and through word of mouth. In fact there is literally not a single AAA game that you could say has been less shilled than E33 was so clearly what those votes actually mean is that you're seething that it is popular and that is HILARIOUS.
>the unrealslop is amazing!
>>741391804Should have made a new bravely game
>>741412020>*minFTFY.I'd say both. As in before and after.
>>741414074Final Fantaslop is literally the onlly thing they market.
>>741414131Clearly no one? Isn't that the point of the thread?
What kind of a name for a protagonist is Elliot lmao, sounds so lame
>>741391804>no we CAN'T make games that look like SNES games, it's just impossible!!>even with the modern technology that makes everything easier, it would just cost 6 gorillon dollars to make a 2D pixel game without the retarded filters and unity asset store tier 3D backgrounds also someone tell these faggots to pick better names for their games, who the fuck is going to buy a game called the adventures of elliot or triangle strategy. are they retarded
>>741415096final fantatroons are NEVER going to accept that a french game made by 30 white people completely gaped their multi-decade series made by the 4000 people at square enix
>>741416763I wouldn't have minded as much had it clearly been a down-to-earth game in a modern setting where the people were named David, Thomas and Frank. But no it's the same generic anime-fantasy world this company always shits out without a thought and Elliot sounds as retarded as it sounds.
>denuvoSame deal as FFTactics and Bravely Default, not buying until they remove it from the game.
I would buy it on Switch 1 if I was able. So I'll have to wait for PC version to drop denuvo.>huur flop God this board is pathetic.
>>741416920>falseflagging Fatlus niggers deflecting to FFtroons
>>741399972Isn't it too combat to be Link to the Past? It's like the devs forgot that Zelda clones have to have interesting puzzles for their dungeons.
woulda gotten it if it was 40
>>741391804I tried to play the demo and it feels exactly like those memes about how a "modern" Zelda would look like.Tons of cutscenes, annoying voice acting, a "companion" that doesn't shut up, awful voice acting.It couldn't have a worst first impression
>>741391804who the fuck is going to buy a game called "adventures of elliot"
>>741411139It's Ys with elements of Zelda
you can probably buy the entire ys series on sale for the price of this one game
>>741391804Of course it flops when you release it as an gane key card game on switch 2.
>>741391804I liked the demo but not enough to pay 60 for it. If it was 40 it would have been a day one buy. I have other stuff to play while waiting for a sale.
>>741412020During, before, and after. Triangle Strategy is a masterpiece. More so if you think of it as both a tactics game and a visual novel.
>>741420128You can make the companion talk less in the settings.
>>741397758Lies of P is AA
>>741397758It's a bare-bones Chrono Trigger knock-off with an afterthought of a story and unremarkable gameplay and world. I would be more inclined if it was actually priced like an AA game but it isn't.
Err... I'm not spending $60 on this unless they add another 80 hours of fetch quests and enemy camps so I can get my money's worth
>>741411021>>741411093
this shit looks like ys and that series is gayno thank you
>>741401284This game is also the poster child for theFOCUS M type dialogue we see in modern games. That Princess NEVER shuts the fuck up holy shit
>>741401284But that says it's a 8/10 game.
>>741391804I'm so glad they released the demo, if I had formed my opinion from reviewers alone then I might have assumed this game would be worth buying during a sale, even if I don't like HD2D I could look past that if it was a good game, but now I know it's unredeemable garbage.>the constant interruptions to gameplay>bland setting and characters>the unbearable chatter fiend v-tuber on the lower left never shutting the fuck up>the amount of time and dialog they spent on exposition>a supremely boring MCSqueenix would have to pay me to play this to compensate my time lost on this shit.
>>741421512Never heard of it, is it good?
>>741422584The uncomfortable truth is that all the men that once made square great are long gone.It's a ship of theseus situation where none of the original parts exist. At this point it deserves to sink.
>>741398029I literally won’t buy it because I hate the name Elliot
>>741423208Based, fuck elliott
>>741391804These constant keemstar coded drama alert threads make a lot more sense when you learn its indians thinking its izzat farming. The shazamnigger unmasked.
>>741422380>if I had formed my opinion from reviewersForming your opinion based on industry shills lmao
>>741423321>google what the fuck keemstar is>some e-celebYou should be embarassed that this is your cultural touchstone
>>741423321We haven't had Shazam posting in a while, at least not to my knowledge
>>741411123I liked the demo and was about to buy it but stuff came up, I will get it next paid day
>>741423321It’s legitimately faggots talking negatively about ANY video games take a screenshot and post it on twitter for money. Don’t think anyone talks in good faith about any game now
>>741412784I mean it's the Eastern devs in general or at least publishers that price that shit so high. Some RPG just came out from a relatively unknown studio and publisher called "Starbites" or something like that which seemed to have an interesting concept and at least one titcow of a female character and its priced at 50 bucks when, at best, it should be 25 or 30
Made more money than Mina according to SteamDB.
>>741413937I don't know what people expected but once you get some of the fairy magic the mobility and controls feel perfectly fine, tight even, against some later bosses. Its no different than when you first get the boots in ALttP and can start sprinting everywhere like a retard. The janky movement at the start is specifically designed to make you want to engage with those much better movement options after Act 1. Its going to filter people for sure, but its no different to any other game with this type of progression system
>>741391804Why the fuck does this looks worst than games from SNES and Sega megadrive ?
>>741397758im never buying a denuvo game i dont give a flying fuck
>>741391804>$70 in my country on steam for a fucking top down pixel game with generic hero story that looks as of it was made in rpg makerYeaaaah... no. Funny how studios and devs whine about games being so expensive because muh graphics and muh fidelity, meanwhile they price a fucking pixel game on part with the best looking AAA titles. $30 is the most in willing to pay to try it out, and looking at dogshit steam numbers it will go on sale soon.
Looks like shit. Plays like shit. Even fucking sounds like shit.Refunded.
>>741391804"HD2D" is the ugliest art style ever conceived and it needs to fucking die. I hope every single "HD2D" game flops so hard that they never make another one again.
>>741426620I don't find it ugly but I do think all games with that artstyle look the sameWonder if that's how oldfags felt when every indie game became pixelshit
Every time Team Asano is given any game to make it's low-quality 2D-HD shite. At first I thought it was forced on them but now I'm starting to think they actually think this style looks good.Which is unfortunate because the actual art is killer, but this engine makes it look abysmal. Vapid bloom, overused godrays, pointless vignet, smeared pixel-filter and crappy DoF. And it's not like they give us any options to turn any of this trash off which feels like should be an option.
>>741422095it's stunning just how retarded users can be when you view this board isn't it
>>741391804But it's not?It's GOTY
>>741426685>>741426620>>741409857I think more people would be more forgiving of the 2DHD style if they at least allowed us to turn the entire post-processing off. 99% of the effects look awful.
>>741391890>>741425169>>741425048>>741424968>>741424927>>741424792>>741424742>>741424686>>741424628Another busy day, huh sport? >>741382342
>>741419979>t.
>>741426932It is remarkable how retarded that guy is. I enjoy a fun schizo as much as the next Anon, but you'd think he'd come off it after literal years.Like come now, no one fucking agrees with his mongoloid nonsense anyway so it's not like he's drawing people in to his insane point of view.
I was expecting a game like Terranigma, hope it delivers.
>>741426932mental illness takes many forms
>>741400027so do you but your mom still loves you
>>741391804I want to play it, but not for $60.
>>741427390Europoor?
>>741427880
>>741392071It was a GKC so barely counts as physical. GKC + late port is a recipe for disaster, no wonder it didn't sell.
>>741411021>mogged by MinaNever bet against furCHADs
>>741401284>It's a 7/10 game from the looks of it,I passionately hate niggers like you who throw around review scores before you've even touched the game.
>>741391804Visions of Mana captured my interest with its demo faster than this game did, and that game has hilariously poor dialogue too...
>>741391804It didn't flop though?
>>741411021Im playing on the switch 2 version though and it's still as good as the demo wasThe spear is more fun to use than the sword btw
I was going to pirate it when denuvo gets removed but I found out it's a Zeldalike and not a jrpg so I lost all interestalso SE is taking their sweet time removing denuvo now, I still need to replay FFT
>>741411545Melty quest

>>741420053So youre confirming no actual puzzlebox dungeons? Thats all im here for
>>741399972A link to the past but a fairy/princess shouts the solution to every puzzle
>>741428792That was only in the first level of the first worldWhy do people here not play video games?
>>741428792>A link to the past but a fairy/princess shouts the solution to every puzzleSo Okami
>>741428823do you not? she keeps doing it>>741428825issun at least shut up outside of cutscenes
I like cute yappy fairies and thats why i'm going to buy the game.
half the replies are complaining about the price or anti piracy measures. typical backlash from third world gamers.
>>741428941Based
>>741429000I'm German and i'll never buy a game with drm
>>741391804>not putting it up on switch 1>GKC on switch 2Serves them right
>>741429000True, but that is essentially the entire Saar Enix fanbase now.
>>741429106Ok Muhammad
>>741429106you probably buy games on steam not realizing that steam is DRM
>>741429278I don't
>>741429329so you don't play any new games? why are you surprised about elliot being sold through online stores just like every other game then?
i FUCKING HATE this (longstanding) trend of releasing these basic-ass-graphics games on the latest genthis fucking game could have easily run on a Switch 1fuck is wrong with publishers that they don't want moneyabsolute fucking retards
>>741429413steam isn't the only storefront
>>741429519i know
>>741429560you don't seem to
>>741411123the gameplay is fun but the story is incredibly hamfisted, at least in the demo
>>741429518Unreal 5 is just that awful of an engine, anon.
>>741429591no, i'm aware about the existence of gog, i'm just saying no major studio releases there so why are you surprised that this game wouldn't release there? only indieshit gets day 1 releases on gog. why are you even here?
>>741429597Fucking retard that's got nothing to do with what he's talking about.Its not on Switch 1 because Nintendo says fuck you buy a Switch 2.
>>741429671holy snoy meltie out of left field.
>>741397758AA games should cost less, shlomothis game should cost 39.99 MAX
>>741429671it's not a Nintendo game, the devs chose not to make a switch 1 version themselves
>>741391804thanks for reminding me, i will buy it on my SWITCH 2 to play this weekend.Looks like a great top down action rpg, i thought it was going to be turn based.
>>741429743Its Nintendo's console, Nintendo decides whether you're allowed to release it on the Switch 1 or not. Fucking tard.
>>741411254>e33 fags when they see a game made without asset flips:
Didn’t /v/ say this was in the running for GOTY? Was /v/ wrong? I thought we all wanted more AA games to play with the kiddos for a couple of hours after work? Isn’t this a solid 7/10 and totally worth two hours of pay? We eatin’ good fellow 2D-HD chads? We can’t wait for the Chrono Trigger remake in 2D-HD?
>>741429774Yeah it's goodPlay the demo too Your progress carries over
>>741429731shitny is equally guilty of this
>>741429853No one said that you delusional fuck
Is the studio aware of how retarded their game naming sense is? No, I am not going to play 'Octopath Traveler' or 'Triangle Strategy' or 'The Adventures of Elliot', sorry
>>741391804>release a shit demo>game doesn't sell wellELLIOT YOU IDIOT!
>>741430053Why are you gaslighting? Were you not here when shill threads about this game were posted daily?
>>741429813did nintendo force them to use UE5 to make a pixel graphic game? did you see that on the startup screen?
>>741430218What exactly do you find wrong with the nomenclature?
>>741430571Again, that has no bearing on the discussion. Nintendo has final say on what games release on their platforms, its as simple as that.
>>741391804>$60 for indie shit>denuvohow greedy can one get
>>741391804Why has online culture become SO obsessed with calling everying under the sun a flop? Goddamn I'm sick of it
>>741391804>Link to the Past>But not Nintendo>BE MAD, GIVE ME IZZAT, I LOST SO MUCH SHILLING AI MY FAMILY ARE BEING REBORN AS POND TURTLESOkay rahj.
>>741426932How come you are not complaining about this thread?
>>741430839in the end. A lot of 4chan threads aren't much better than something like nintendeen.
>>741429813>Nintendo decides whether you're allowed to release it on the Switch 1 or notYou're genuinely retarded if you think it was nintendo who decided thisbwasnt going to release on switch 1. Nintendo has done nothing but encourage devs to release on switch 1 as much possible, even going so far as to refuse developers switch 2 dev kits.
>>741430803it doesn't even run very well on switch 2 it drops frames all the time, how would it run on switch 1? nevermind you're just a complete retard
>>741430839Turned out the shazamposters were indians brought in to spam for rupees during the 2016 election and they stuck around believing this stuff was a izzat farm.
>>741430839It's tendies
>>741430972>>741431202It could absolutely run on Switch 1, if this is the angle you're aiming for. Nintendo wants you to buy a Switch 2, its that simple.
>>741431282Sure, it COULD run on a switch 1, but devs are historically lazy and WILL cut corners if they don't have to. For a lot of devs the switch 2's power is just an excuse to put less effort into optimization. Until you can prove that nintendo is forcing devs to exclusively launch in switch 2, your theories are nothing but achizo headcanon.
>>741431257Explain why every fucking nintendo game gets flop threads too, faggot.
>>741392938Yes. Sure.
>>741411003based taste
>>741391804>>741426932Hypocrite lmao
>>741432254Mad your fun is being spoiled?
>>741430839Making fun of bad games is a time honored tradition
>>741432254Wait so the one constantly crying about being attacked is the one constantly attacking se games?
>>741432556So this is the angle you'll be going with? Best of luck. Have fun talking to yourself. I predict a LOT of posts that are in complete agreement.
im having a blast
>HD-2D abortionDeserved.
>>741432514No, that shit is not what I'm talking about. Every goddamn game, no matter how good, gets spammed to hell and back with "flop" threads these days. It's also not a /v/ problem but a culture wide phenomenon. If you have noticed the shift in the last 5 years you are in denial.
OHNONONONO Team Asano sisters... I thought Team Asano would save the JRPG genre...
I'd rather have another Ys in the Origin style
>>741430839Serious answer: it's all downstream from culture war bullshit. People (understandably) got sick and tired of "modern" standards and "wokeshit" that they grew to hate any modern media release. Once a few, real, flops actually started happening (Concord, Disney movies), people got massive dopamine hits and have become addicted. Now people just want to see everything they don't play/watch fail, and it doesn't matter how good or bad that piece of media actually is. It's gotten so out of hand that people will spam the internet gaslighting people into hating everything because they are desperate for another hit. Couple that with your usual fanboy nonsense and the sour grapes mentality, and you've got a recipe for the hellacape we currently live in.
Voices status
>>741433267Agreed.
>>741391804I want to like it because of the fairy but this really seems to be the only selling point. Might get it for a thrift shop sale.
>>741391804I would buy it if it was 10 bucks without discount and 3 with discount.
>>741434339nah that would be a massive flopi would make steam charts about it daily
>>741391804>>741391890oh the melty lmao>>741426932>literally all but one deletedTOTAL SCHIZO MELTY LMAO
>>741430745Gives off the feeling that their games are completely generic. They'll probably name their next game "Turn Based RPG" or some shit.
>>741431257>muh tendies>when tendies are literally the only ones playing this gametrying too hard
>>741391804elliot is a stupid name

>>741436917even tommy would be better than the name i was given
>>741436992bro, I... I apologize.
>>741430839Everyone who legitimately likes video games enough to discuss them have moved to Reddit, Twitter, and other alt chans. 4chan is pure shit now and I only come here out of habit
>>741391804It's a 30€ game, not 60.
>>741436727These games are positioned to be as conceptually generic as possible to push the HD-2D brand. They want people to become fans of the art style rather than the games themselves
>>741391804The title is so boring in terms of the text. Why are all the titles so boring nowadays?There's a fairy though and that makes me want to play it big time. Is it good?
>>741437579it got less than 95 on metacritic and the steam concurrents are in the toiletit's fucking rancid dog shit dude
I don't buy squareslop
Game is mechanically fun but the lack of rewards for exploring is going to get old quick I think. Every chest is either>1/4 of more health>more currency you can only use to buy more consumables that you find in pots for free>more different currency you use to play a gacha to get a weapon effect that gives you a 10% chance to get 20% more damage when an enemy is ignited and below 40% health>one of the weapon effects mentioned previously that you already have because you pulled it in the gachaGame should have been like 50% smaller and only cost 40$

Game looks pretty good, but obviously overpriced. So I like many shall wait for a sale. Simple as.
>>741391804they shouldve given it a better titlethese devs suck at naming their games
How come these games keep missing the point of Zelda? The overworld, dungeons, and amount of secrets is very bland too, not just the yapping. Nintendo magic is just irreplaceable it seems.
>>741432514More like every /v/irgin wants to be the first to call out supposedly bad games to cash out on the dopamine from all the (you)s.
