This is the 4channiest game since Onirism. We’re all busy playing it.

Who tf names their game "Adventures of Elliot'? That sounds fuckin stupid

what kind of faggy name is that even, what were they thinking

I want to play it. I don’t want to pay the price they’re asking for it.

ridiculous

The game looks like soul blazer, that means I'm ok with that.

>>741631551
It's more like the opposite problem in that they seriously overproduced a 2D Zelda. There's nothing special about this one.
>>
>>741631924
Does it really deserve a massive hate campaign in this site just because it's nothing special, I honestly don't think it deserves it.
>>
>>741632012
is it really a hate campaign, though?
>>
>>741630148
A lot of people in the previous thread said if you don’t like it, you’re non-White because Elliot is peak White representation.
>>
>>741629124
square games just dont sell that much in general. the newest octopath traveller, which is an established and liked series has 1000 reviews on steam, this is already over half of that. their games just have fairly niche appeal.
>>
>>741631924
but is it at least good? all I know is that it chugs on Intel cpus
>>
>>741630148
Came here to post this. The name is boring, generic, and tells you absolutely nothing about what the game is supposed to be. It really shows how something as simple as a name can make or break a game, especially when it's a new IP
>>
>>741631551
Because it was extremely hyped with dozens of people in every 4chan/r*ddit/Steam thread extolling the virtues of 2D-HD and how much we needed AA games. Unfortunately just because “Team Asano” (a superstar celebrity team or something) made this doesn’t mean it’s going to sell millions.
>>
>>741632012
You and your ilk not only begged us to buy this, but you also begged for 2D-HD remakes of Chrono Trigger, FF4-6, etc. People had extremely high expectations. Even now there are still people who claim this game is just as good as ALTTP, which is insane copium.

>>741632435
This is literally the first time I actively participate in a Elliot thread, I just noticed there are lots of "it flopped" "deserved it" threads of it, I was expecting a woke, lgbt, ugly game but it's just an average squenix game.
>>
>>741632621
its because low intelligent people make these threads to get replies, it happens with literally every new release
>>
>>741629124
The good part of this is that they will put this on sale soon and we'll all be able to play kino.
>>
>>741629124
I'm not playing as some faggot named Elliot LMAO
>>
I think what doesn't help it (outside of overly chatty fairy) is that the beginning of the game is extremely slow and limiting until you get the fairy and it opens up, and that beginning part is what the demo focuses on. Now that I got the scythe and a few different magic spells, it's opened up to be a pretty fun game. Shame /v/ seems like they are determined to shit on this because... well it's just something to shit on?

Who the fuck are you talking about and who is "us"? how the fuck are you this schizo to where you made video game threads so damn personal on /v/? Can you even show in the archive a post where someone was actually begging you to buy this or you literally just making shit up in your head?

Does anyone know got to beat the reaper guys? The game says Faie might help beat them but I don't know what it is I'm supposed to be doing, I can't block their attacks much and I get attacked everytime I try to attack them too much. What am I supposed to be doing with Faie?
>>
>>741630148
aping the same "X of Y" style but it sounds absurd here because it doesn't sound mythical much less hype
>>
>>741632435
>just as good as alttp
It does some things better and other things worse.
The level design is weaker than alttp but still good enough especially since its interwoven across eras.
The Abilities and items are more interesting than alttp as is the combat and it has decent platforming
You can do a fun co-op campaign where each player has a different skillset once you unlock the fairy.
The game is a solid 8 or 9 in my book, depends on what the rest of the fairy abilities are.
The only cons I can think of is that the story is too wordy sometimes, which basically is a completely irrelevant point for the type of game this is though I would say this about any rpg as well. I want to violently beat up normalfags putting too much stock on story for ruining videogames as a hobby, never listen to the opinion of someone that whines about the story in a game they don’t have an opinion.
>>
>>741630148
It's entirely misguided and retarded. The simple solution right in front of everyone is just call the game "The Millennium Tale." There, it's kind of unique and mythical sounding fantasy story name. At the very most, you'd have some oldfags remembering "le melinium girl" from Etrian Odyssey, and then have "Adventures of Elliot" as the subtitle. The first Octopath Traveler succeeded in spite of the title not because of it, and so they got it in their head that bad names are a good thing. Thing is I enjoy these games, but this needs to change.
>>
>>741634350
I haven't had any particular issue with them. They're functionally just normal enemies. The goddamn kung-fu chickens and their five-hit combo give me just as much trouble. I don't think there's any trick to it, just fight them normally. It does become easier when you unlock the perfect guard if you don't have that yet.
>>
I know like 99% of normalfags out there want to compare this to Zelda, and sure that's fair to an extent. But after getting the scythe, it's pretty damn obvious this is really an homage to Final Fantasy Adventure/SD1. The funny thing is, I actually have enjoyed this so far more than I did Secret of Mana on my last playthrough (outside of the music that is--Secret of Mana has fantastic sound track while AoE is just okay).
>>
>>741633086
You should’ve seen yesterday’s thread where anyone who didn’t like the name Elliot was called a jeet. I’m not going to spoonfeed you. “Team Asano” doesn’t know who you are and they’re not paying you for this shilling.
>>
>solid 9/10
>better than Sword of Mana
>”the potential to overtake Final Fantasy”
Is this the most critically acclaimed game of our time?
>>
>>741635976
I looked through the archive at every Elliot thread from yesterday. I figured with as mad as you are about this, surely you're not just making shit up. But can't find a single thread where anyone called someone a jeet. I did see someone saying the opposite to where if you like the game, you're a jeet>>741507404, but that's it. Basically you're actually schizo as fuck.
>“Team Asano” doesn’t know who you are and they’re not paying you for this shilling.
See, literal schizo babble out of nowhere.
>>
>>741632517
I did try the demo and that's why I know its shit.
>>
>>741636706
Square deploying paid shills would genuinely be preferential to the schizo faction wars Squaretrannies shit up the board with. At least they would get paid.
>>
>>741631876
I wish it looked like Soul Blazer, we could use more Soul Blazer-likes, with a simple, satisfying gameplay loop, and not much yapping.
>>
>>741636945
Stop calling them Square, and call them SE. They only benefit from the vague association with Squaresoft when they don't have even an ounce of soul that Sqauresoft had.
>>
>>741629124
it doesnt matter, they keep shitting out 10 of these HD2D games a year because they dont cost anything to make
>>
>>741631551
It's a Square Enix game
>>
Has the game been cracked yet? I heard Denuvo games have started getting cracked but it's not on my usual sites.
