New episode.Does the author really not understand how shit this fake game is? Not one would play this garbage.
>>275098304Why do you think Sunraku almost never encounter another player when he's out in the monster zones or dungeons?
>>275098304The most realistic part of the game is that it's region blocked to Japan only, kek.
Shitty game is the whole reason that entice Sunraku to play.

It only took 33 chapters, but the fight is finally done!
I like her smug face
>>275098304At least now we can all agree that Hack Sign was better
>>275098304yes it's actually a kusoge
I thought the fight just ended here after Rei-Shi finished chanting. Everything got so quiet all of a sudden
>>275098524I KEKed at the end. What was that funny wolf face all about?
Rei-chan WON!
>>275098641Imagine having sex with her and hearing her screams...
>>275098527>heh
>>275098524>tfw you beat the boss with restrictions on so the game gives you a chibi version as a pet
Alright, so since the npcs can perma die can someone tell me if emul dies at some point? I just wanna know so I can prepare ahead of time.
>>275099007Wait is it just a floating chibi head as a pet???
>>275099031idk honestly just guessing
>>275098304Just take a long rest, idiot.
>>275098379>30 million players
>>275099091It'd be really cute if he got a chibi wolf clone pet to play with emul. It would hide in shadows and play pranks on her.
Sex with Rei-chan AND Akitsuakane-chan.
>>275099168My queen...
it's amazing how quick this series fell offthis is one of the most UNENGAGING action anime out there.The manga fell off after Wezaemon, and the anime from even earlier on because of lack of content / episode due to recap, MINI and overall slow pacing.the esports arc was where I just "fuck it, time to drop this garbage".
Well... wasn't expecting that ending.
Why does every video game anime/manga feel like the authors have never played a video game?
Lycagon's true form is mesugakibirdman needs to correct her good
>grabs your tits
>>275099296>authors have never played a video game*have never played a video game WITH FRIENDS
Where is my wife Pencilgon...
>>275099642What's Lycagon's capture level?
>>275098453Cool as fuck
>>275099510The author likes to have some sort of female character being important to the colossi/the story to get to said colossi like the spider loli and the android idol.Lycagon is probably a smug-ass loli hag or just a massive furry wolf like vash.
>>275099771I meant snake loli, not spider my bad
>>275099720I believe all the colossus are around hundred. They're strong, but not at the level of Eight Kings.
Great episode. Didn't expect the ending. I was thinking that Lycagon would flee or something like that.
>>275099296This honestly Maybe it's different in mmos, but no one IRL would bat an eye at Sunraku's avatar looking weird.Honestly it's kinda mild really.
>>275099796>They're strong, but not at the level of Eight Kings.Power creep expansion?
imagine if she missed haha
With millions of players, you'd think there'd me more autistic minmaxers
I wouldn't have brought my NPC companions to a bossfight like that
>>275100514they ran into Lycaon by complete accident
>>275100533they could have told their NPCs to leave though
>>275100558and just leave them in the wild?
Had the NPCs never seen a robot flying bird before?
>>275100606they didn't
kakkoii!
>Sunraku got eatenSo does this mean he died again? Long run back to where he was.
>>275100768ho got blowjob'd by black Holo
>the clone can inflict the curse marks>but killing the clone does not remove them>because it just instakills you againthat seems a bit unfair
>>275100529Why is she barefoot?
>recap episode
>>275099168I hope she wins in the end
>>275100827>>275100768He did not die, His tattoos got reinforced and it can't be removed by the Saint lady anymore.
>>275099296because treating a full dive game like just another MMO where a bunch of autists look up tier lists and boss guides for everything they do ingame would be rather boring
>>275100862>lycagon right now
What you wanna be?
The white noise in the background is really nice.
>>275100898This. It's a dream like situation where every game isn't like that.
>>275100829Who wears shoes in their bed?
>>275100862I figured that would be the case when they started to glow that it would be a curse lvl2 type deal, seems like wolfie found herself a fun toy so I doubt she would just let her marks disappear.
>>275100898Not that anon, but the issue is basic mechanics that would never work in a game. Like the pk system is extremely abusable.
Will Lycagon become a cute wolf girl NPC companion once they beat her?
>>275100713I hope Tensei deals this much damage once Sunraku learns it (except maybe with smaller or no AoE)
>>275101678I havent been keeping up with the wn but im pretty sure we still dont know what she actually looks like. One of the colossi has "clones" like lycagon and sunraku befriended/tamed her getting a cute snake loli npc.
Bros, I'm having X-com flashbacks...
>You will spend weeks or even months in your class and you will like itDogshit game design should be illegal.
Ninja girl sex
>>275103249I want to see him just completely nosell Shaman girl's curses, especially the kamikaze one.
>>275103249So he's at the cap, so that means that monsters will run away from him now.
>>275103976Assuming slf works like other mmo's the max level areas will still have npcs and bosses higher than the level cap.
Good episode
>>275098304Imagine a casting time of 15 minutes
>>275098453Coolio
>>275100337Yeah that was always a really weird part to me, the idea that everyone else are serious rpers looks-wise basically. Like with Maple’s anime, everyone should be trying every version of weird broken builds and wacky clothes.
>>275102324>95% hit chance 1 square away>miss, fire at ceiling
>>275101011i mean if you're not moving a muscle in VR, you're going to produce less heat, like with hiking vs standing in the wind.
>>275100862Based
I get some .hack// vibes from thisNot as good but still pretty fun
>>275105198Too bad we get namek'ed now until season 3 or even 4 if its only 12 episodes.
>>275098492>It only took 33 chaptersYou have no idea how lucky we are
>>275099128Why would you do that to your irl waifu?
>>275105625I wouldnt even mind if the fight has a lot of chapters as long as its interesting thats why I wanna see orchestra and the dragon but cthulhu-man was a dumb boss and had shit gimmicks.Wezaemon was solved to a point and got cheesed to hell and back but he still looked like a fun boss.
>>275098641>inspired by nuturuso much safe and predictable lmao
>>275105487Im still on season 1 with the Weatherman fight
>>275098641>>275099569I really enjoyed the detail on this part
>>275099607Cool
>>275099569her red eyes here made my pp feel funny
>>275099007It’s like Elden Ring, he should be able to fire shadow breadth from it.
Which chapter does Emul get skullfucked
>>275106019it won't get as kino as that again
What chapter does this leave off on?
>>275104506iirc original everquest and albion had 5 minute casts.
>>275098304>>275098692very kuso
Does the shadow wolf keep spawning after this? It'd be pretty kusoge design if it doesn't and only the first clearers get access to the unique scenario. Like what if they get bored and quit the game?
>>275107404
I've listened to the OP a couple more times since last week and it has really grown on me.
>>275104506You are like baby https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj99norl918
>Thread once again bitching about things that actually mmo players have loved and wanted more of for decades.Every week with this shit.
>>275101418Analog games, these are dive vr games, they are completely different and usually powered by massive AI shit.We haven't seen a real version of any of this yet since it's still above our tech level.
>>275105625Honestly, I feel like the lore-girl is kind of right. When they defeated wethermon for instance, it could have been with A LOT more prepraration and strategy, and after many tries of trying to get used to him and experimenting different things. Not to mention the obvious that Suzaku fought almost without gear. And they even won in a mostly "legitimate" way, instead of find some absurd cheesing strategy and abusing it to the maximum. It seems that the colossi could have been a lot stronger than what they are now. (Maybe not so much as the lore girl would wish.)
>>275109044SLF is kind of a shit mmo in a lot of ways. Wez got cheesed to death thanks to all the info they got so he should have had a hotfix as soon as the devs saw the amount of progression the other people managed to do especially since "he wasnt supposed to be beaten first"Dont even get me started on ctarnidd.
>>275110046You sound like the writer. Shit you put in the game has to be beatable.
>>275103249The devs are literally lolcows as seen from the the Wezaemon fight, so it's not surprising.
So will the wolf epic boss turn out to be a furry loli?If not I will drop this anime.
>>275098379Well is there not a new expansion comming out plus he is late to the party.
>>275110129The writer wanted to force an order to the colossi kills and the rewards for beating ctarnidd really show as much so the devs fucked it up. >>275110493We dont know but there are other npc races coming from colossi quests.
>>275110129The thing is, it is clear that there is still a lot of room to make the colossi stronger while still beatable. Especially since they are made to only be beaten 1 time.
She's cute
Hands
>>275106881>original everquest [...] had 5 minute castsNothing comes to mind for that. The longest I can think of is 30 seconds on some item clicks (from the first expansion).Spell recasts? Then yeah, probably.When you first put the spell into your spell bar to be able to cast it you need to wait for its full cooldown to run which for some spells be in the minutes range.
>>275098492Not seeing the original crew in here. Did Sunraku drop his shitgame pals?
>>275098304Coneja sexo
>>275111055Two are npcs(shark on the left and the little kid on the right), the rest will join the guild
>>275110794>yaoi anime/manga
>>275108965>AIAI in SAO are really primitive, tho. Literally modern chatbot level.(I'm talking about normal NPC AIs, not about soul sparks or whatever they were called in the dream-like non-polygon world)
>>275112560how was the ai in accel world? it's the same universe but a few generations later.
>>275113761anon, you can't just ask a random anon how the ai is in accel world, it's not social acceptable
>>275113975>t.
>>275113761accel world is not a normal game, it's some kind of shady experiment. it's closer to alicization tech ("dream-like non-polygon world")
>>275110598Feels like the best way to force the order would've been to put some of the towns on a different continent that requires a boat to sail to and you end up with a random chance of encountering Ctarnidd instead of how it's gone down so far. You incentivize the player by making it so that something important that you can't get back to was on the previous island so that you had a pool of people trying to take it down.
>>275099018Not so far in the manga, and it seems unlikely.
>>275110753All the girls in the show so far are all cuties. Cute!
>girl so cute you randomly get a vision of her >>275098453Really nice to see that it got Wethermon's ultimate tier animation
>>275114669Rei confirmed gaming wife.
>>275099018>>275114438One of the npcs might have to die to get the colossi kill but its up in the air as of right now. Its not emul and we havent seen her yet.
>NPC dies>Dev just codes it back in
>>275098884Wolf is well, a soar loser?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7J6l1wZUboReminded me of playing this.
>>275099296Because just making a show about someone playing a video game would be boring as shit unless you go the Hi Score Girl route and basically use gaming as a framing device for the actual story about the real life characters.
>>275107773are you kidding me, those exist for real??
>>275116356it's an instakill spell that cast time scales off the enemys hp/strength, so yesdragons dogma 1 is peak gaming
Sex with Pencilgon
>>275110648>only be beaten 1 timeDid the author change it in the LN/Manga? It was mentioned Ctarnidd can be fought multiple times in the WN.
WHAT YOU WANNA BEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_WkKna5DXc
>>275104506It's probably like 1 minute. This is just DBZ time flow.
>>275117080Wasn't this the first time anyone fought Ctarnidd? There even was lag as the event started.
>>275110648Lmao no. Just because some literal hyperhuman poopsockers defeated them extremely easily all things considered doesn't mean shit doesn't mean you can make them stronger. 30M players literally couldn't achieve shit ingame. A boss that makes Wolfgang struggle would solo the entire playerbase.
BUNS!!!
>>275117166WE ARE THE FRONTIERS
What if he had clicked No. Would the curse increase still have happened? I'm just wondering if he could have put this on hold, got his curse removed, and then continued from there.
>>275119230If he can leave the prompt pending, then he might've been able to do that. Choosing No would probably make the wolf think he's a bitch and not give him anything ever again.
The "new" OP is really shit.Can't even compare to the S1 kino.
filtered
>>275119468At least the new ending is very good.
>>275119790Yeah, I agree, that one is pretty cool.
>>275110502The expansion is late game content with new level 100++ monsters, also it's summer break, so there shouldve been a huge number of new and returning players coming into the game.
EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>275105625>15 forms>Time manipulationImagine when you're about to beat the 15th phase, the boss just rewind the battle back to phase 1.
>>275110129To be fair, having an ultra endgame raid boss beaten by only 3 players, 2 of which didnt even have late game items, is kinda ass.
>>275121661The devs are written like they are absolute fucking morons. Its like they saw phase 1 and thought that would be enough to filter the players. Then again the writers spergouts are hilarious especially the one after ctarnidd.
>>275117166https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSDygYZWP2E&ab_channel=TriaxFxngl, the bit starting at 0:50 in the opening gives me chills. Cool shit, like slow mo fighting shots like that.
>>275099296They saw that making an isekai story with a thin coating of MMO game world setting is an easy way to get popular after SAO did it and exploded in popularity.Log Horizon is the only MMO setting story that does it right, the MMO game mechanics feels realistic to actual MMO game mechanics because surprise surprise, the author actually play MMOs.
>>275110046>>275110129This makes me think of the death of EverQuest's 'Unkillable' Dragon incident
>>275124555That happened multiple expansions after his zone was current (so lots of player powercreep).His only weakness was that all of his damage was single target. Don't think developers back in 2000 would've expected the player base to be able to keep up with ~1 person dying* per second and still winning the fight.*Back then when you died you were zoned out back to your bind point. Upon getting resurrected, you zoned back to your corpse completely naked and without any mana/endurance. You then needed to manually loot all of your stuff off your corpse.Let us assume you had a fast computer/internet and each zone time took 20 seconds. A resurrection spell is around 10 seconds to cast. Looting all your stuff super fast another 10 seconds.So for each death, that player was legitimately out of the fight for at least a minute and came back super weak.Still kind of nuts they were able to zerg rush him enough to keep a fight going for 30+ minutes.
>>275124169I think SLF does somethings that are found in original MMOs. Not good things though. The addition of Unique Items though is probably to stop everything from appearing the same. Event bosses used to be popular as one of a kind events, but modern MMOs moved past that because it and PVP are horrible for player retention. I think SLF is a game that could be made by autists for autists. It just got popular due to marketing but most people probably only enjoy the novelty of the gimmick of a world that is fully immersive.
reminder that the point of the unique bosses is that defeating them advances the worldstate, unlocking new content for everyone
Has Sunraku figured out that Vysache is a colossus?
>>275126148Yeah that's a bad gimmick for player retention. MMO world firsts are bragging rights only because more than just a handful of players do extreme content. A lot of players are content just doing the story but most still don't want to be put in a situation where they can't get or find unique items.
>>275126193In the WN iirc he has a heavy suspicion that it is Vysache due to the fragmented infos that he get along the story (Divine era scientist had a pet bunny injected with magic stuff to make it immortal, and then the epithet of last unknown collosi is "The Immortal")
>>275126379To be fair, Unique Monsters arent the only source of uniques. Like Rei's sword is a unique sword, and she didnt get it from unique monster.There's also raid bosses aside from the unique monsters, I think.
>>275098304Yes, we knew this game was total shit since episode 1, but I'm still hoping for the episode Sunraku realizes he was playing a kuso game all along.
>>275126701inb4 the world becomes unplayable hell once they "progressed" the world story by beating 7 colossi
>>275126750Kek, imagine it's like Terraria's hard mode and then the newbies have to fight level 100 monsters because the world progressed.
>>275126379the writer seems to have envisioned taking down each unique boss as a massive collaborative effort of everyone pooling all their discoveries and resources pertaining to each unique scenario with massive online debates about what it all means and how it pertains to the boss battle as well as sharing and carefully analyzing recordings of every failed attempt in such a way that each unique boss is only defeated after being 100% researched and even if you didn't participate in the final battle you feel like you still were a part of it by contributing to the research and discussionits hilarious that she didn't expect people to hoard information for themselves to try and maximize the odds of being the one to beat it. Completely failed to anticipate that upon recieving the curse mark, Sunraku didn't immediately make a forum post complaining >I fought this big shadow wolf and now i can't wear chest armor. Update: I can now visit the Vorpal Bunny Kingdom? What is that about??"
>>275126750>ATTENTION ALL PLAYERS>THE 7TH SEAL HAS BEEN BROKEN>CITIES ARE NO LONGER SAFE>MONSTERS CAN NOW DESTROY BUILDINGS, WHICH PLAYERS WILL NEED TO EXPEND RESOURCES TO REPAIR>PLAYERS CAN NOW INVEST IN CITY DEFENSES>THE 13 LORDS OF CALAMITY HAVE NOW BEEN UNLEASHED>IF ALL MAJOR CITIES FALL, THE LORDS OF CALAMITY WILL BEGIN ATTACKING OUR SERVERS DIRECTLY>THANKYU FOR PLAYING SLF
>>275127310>Game ends with the world/server blowing upTruly, the most kamige of all time.
Will people even find out they defeated the "Lycagon" that everyone thought was the real Lycagon?Wasn't there an announcement when they defeated Wezaemon but not this time?
>>275127356You think 0 won't tell her sister and guild leader? And that she also has the quest leading to fight the real Lycagon?
>>275117747Finding the secret quest seem to have been the biggest filter.There were 3 persons, 2 with barely experience in the game, with classes that weren't at all planned for that occasion, that barely practiced teamwork, with equipments far from optimal and not particulary suited for the ocassion (with one of them mostly not using any equipment at all, when considering wheathermon was suppose to be a mid-late colossus to be killed, it would make perfect sense to be expected that the people who would kill him to have drops from other colossi, or at least future expansions that would come with them), with some quickly gathered auxiliar items, and, even if their levels were reduced to 50, their skills remained as they were, and they were very, very far from optimal too. Yet they won in the first/second try. The MC, for comparison, seems to have struggled way, way, waaayy more with some of his "trash games". Also, they didn't even risked using NPCs, for obvious reason, but that it other thing they could have done assuming they were willing to sacrifice them to beat the enemy.And again, the enemy was meant to be beaten 1 time by any group of people in the entire history of the game that is supposed to be super popular.And the battle didn't even took long in terms of real time. There was A LOT of space to make the enemy stronger.
>>275127427I meant the general player population and the online forums, not their close friends.
>>275127430Wezaemon was a pure skill check. Survive for X time and it progresses to the next part of the fight, with you needing to perform a perfect counter at the end to win.More people/better gear doesn't really help there.
>>275127430The games main advantage and flaw is that it relies on the players reactivity. MC and his friends tend to have extremely high level reaction times. His ability to dodge near impossible barrages and his ability to get an early divine weapon pushed that level. As he notes back in the factor, a lopsided DPS party wouldn't normally do this well in other games.
>>275127430>And the battle didn't even took long in terms of real time.didn't it take them all night till dawn?
So is this game and its inhabitants sentient and able to affect the real world like "The World" in .hack//?
>>275127500The unrealistic part for me is that only 2 people were able to handle Kirin since it seems like a regular raid boss rather than a skill check.
>>275127500More people is questionable since he is meant to get stronger the more players fight him, but better gear, skills, and usable items would surely help. Probably the biggest indicator of that is that item that Pencilgon had borrowed that allowed to increase the stats of the party for a moment in exchange for sacrificing money and gear.And while yet, they won with a perfect counter, it might not necessarily be the only way, since they could have for instance kept his sword in the first place.>>275127521My point isn't that his party is bad. It is that there was a lot of room for them to be better and more fine tuned to fight against wezaemon, so making him stronger (to some degree) is far from absurd.>>275127548I believe that only if you count the events that lead to the battle too.
>>275098379Everyone just hangs in town erping like every other mmo
Sunraku is a nutcase for being able to pound energy drinks the way he does
>>275098379the game only has 30 million players so its not that popular outside of Japan, and Sunraku tends to play at unsociable hours
>>275127625The party comp was 3 DPS using items instead of getting a healer to do it. I don't even know if healers even exist in the game since we haven't seen them but all of Wezaemon's attacks were instant kill. Weapons and armor don't save you against that unless they have the right parry abilities. Only the ability to execute frame perfect dodges and parries save you.
>>275127657Do you think somebody has fucked an NPC?
>>275127700he's gonna be heartbroken when he gets type II diabetes
>>275127759me
>>275127747They could have equipment that deals more damage, or has better reach, or increase agility, of provide axuliary skills, and so on. It was not just Wezaemon that they were fighting against, but his horse too, if they could have gotten rid of the horse earlier, the later stages of the battle against wezaemon could have gone very differently. And yes, the three classes were DPS, but that doesn't mean they were the best DPS classes to fight against him. (We don't even know if purely DPS classes would really have been the best against him, instead of one kind of support or whatever, the point is that their builds and stuff were all made not having fighting Wezaemon in mind.)
>>275127571Nope.
knock knock rakuro, it's time to pay up on the sex debt owed to rei
>>275127886Imagine if Akaneakitsu just substitution log'd the Tensei kek.
>>275127205I'm pretty sure he was more inspired by Soulslike and has admitted it. The MMO stuff is just window dressing.
>>275098304MMOs have those though, EverQuest and DaoC especially had 3-day cooldowns that were relevant in roaming rotations. There were also realm limited ones you could only use for a short window after your realm took a battleground.An example from WoW, there were character-limited items that would apply an instant long-duration stun, you were given 15 once and that was all you'd ever had. If someone used one on you, they HATED you.
Yep, Rakuro owes Rei sex for sure.
>All 7 unique bosses will be monopolized by the same group of 10ish playersImagine being one of the other 30 million scrubs.
>>275127548I just checked, it took them between 20 and 30 minutes in the fight. (The first and second phase took 10 min each as it seemed a time-condition, they thought that the third phase would be 10 minutes too, but Sunraku defeated him before that.)
The OP is so bad I had to delete my entire Shangri La folder...
>>275128200I didn't care all that much for her reading the manga, but the anime makes her incredibly cute with her mannerisms and noises.
Having re-watched the wazemon fight, two big things that could have been improved would to be to have at least one class with high STR proeficient in two handed swords, so when someone make wazaemon drop his sword, that person could use the sword against him or his horse, and he would be probably much easier to beat in the next phase.The second is that he is of undead type and the horse is a robot, and other than having 1 item preprared to use against him due to him being undead, nobody had anything to use for their advantage in that.And this is assuming that he is immune to all kind of stuff, becase if not, one or two auxiliary classes could have made him easy even, if for instance >>275128082 actually worked on him.Lastly, Pencilgon tried to do everything almost by herself. The info gathering, getting the right teammates, the items, the money, etc. While it seems that these colossi are kind of meant to be something that all the top players are too work together to defeat (not necessarily by all going to battle together, but by gathering information and items, making donations and so on).
>>275099876damn smug bitch!!
>>275129221Sunraku will give her correction
>toes out of nowhere
>>275098304The game has felt like a fake game ever since the early episode when Sunraku had to run to town and rest at an inn to cure his poison debuff before he dies (he could've just asked any player to cast a healing spell on him if this was a real MMO) and in this episode and the previous one where they removed the clouds by having a robot bird blow them away and dispelled the darkness by using a fire spell in a game with no darkness/brightness mechanic ever mentioned beforehand.It reminds me of the Duelist Kingdom arc of Yugioh where they just pulled random game mechanics out of their asses before the game rules were properly made for the real TCG on the next arc.
>>275129603That shit was amazing honestly. I still remember the Time Wizard shit and the Labyrinth card.
>>275129603That's how games should be.
>>275129603irl yugioh would be better if we could actually send people to the shadow realm
>>275098304Cause he is on End Game Zones, you fucking scrub
>>275098641Hot Take.webm
>>275119230Its probably a hard condition to get to True Lycao Quest, if you decline it, you probably will need to fight the Shade, AGAIN,
>>275129603Where the fuck are the healers in this game? If you can just use potions why would you use them unless someone unlocked really busted skills on one. The yugioh shit is apt but I don't know if it'd be engaging if we knew about the rules before they mattered.
>>275130379All kicked from the party
>>275100529>gets to play with sunraku>gets sunraku to call her by a nickname in-game>fight lycagon together>delivers the final blow>sunraku's subconscious picks up rei's irl mannerism for a split secondNothing but massive Ws for her in this arc. I'm so proud of her.
Niw that Ctarnidd arc is over, are you ready for more Pencilgon evil plans and Sunraku vs Rei's sister in next arc?
>>275130379all the best healing items are stupidly expensive
>>275128019>>275128200Rei...
>>275130379>Where the fuck are the healers in this game?Being a healer in a VRMMO would be terrible.You just walk around saying "Heal!" all the time. Any caster class would be the same, constantly saying the same spell over and over.Webm would be the gameplay for any kind of mage.
>>275131389If you look at normal MMOs healers have dozens of different healing moves, some shield other regen and provide different buffs. Damage is lamer for healers. Mages though get a wide variety of spells that's not just one attack. With a system like this you'd want a bunch of spell synergies that amplify damage while providing unique builds.
>>275099296all the game mechanics details were actually taken out of the sao anime
>>275131702>Gigatank with Tower Shield>Buffstacked to absolute limit>Still almost gets oneshotted by a random swipe from a cloneKek, this game is kinda shit
>>275131825Hopefully they have bosses with unavoidable aura damage that kills dodge squishes like Sunraku. This games is way too cruel to actual tanks.
>>275099296There are zero full dive video games
>>275131891If there are full dive video games, the top game wouldnt be MMOs, it'd be sex games.
>>275129603You need to stop that kind of thinking when it comes to VRMMO. Of course brightness affects shadows, of course clouds aren't just decorations with no collision detection. If it can be done IRL, it can be done in VRMMO.
>>275131389Many VRMMOs have complex mana system, taking advantage of mental interface.
>>275131927Government wouldn't allow it, condering neural interface would allow direct activation of pleasure centers. (You) would be a starving mouse pressing the button over and over again.
>>275131965>The game is 100% just like real lifeI don't know about you, that just feels like lazy writing, there's no point in making the setting a video game world if it just ignores the setting and everything is jut like the real world.
>>275132107>ignores the settingYour setting is "light does not affect shafows"? What kind of shit setting is that?
>>275100529Cute wife celebrating taking down a powerful foe with her husband.
>>275128750I'm sure most of the playerbase doesn't really care.
>>275128750Literally skill issue.
>>275131927
>>275132131The game didn't have any light and darkness mechanic so far because everything is unnaturally bright even during the night and inside caves because it's a video game, then suddenly it's a mandatory mechanic for a single boss fight where the boss can block the moonlight and attack from the dark making it impossible to dodge, but suddenly there's a light mechanic in the game and fire can light up the darkness to negate the boss's special move.It's not even treated as a puzzle fight gimmick because the characters all act like that you do need light to see in the dark but it was never applied anywhere in the story before (and presumably after).
>>275132704>never seen a boss gimmick beforeare you even a gamer
>>275132704The golden scorpion also had some gimmick with moon light.
>>275132704Characters often carry light sources with them or have different levels of night sight depending on their race.
>>275099296You cant not make a game both Realistic and Enjoyable from a story telling perspective. Your Standard MMO will be just setting on place, Spam rotating your skills
>>275132704If only they'd researched all the lore and ran the pertinent optional dungeons to learn more about the importance of the moon in Shangri-La's Frontiers
>>275133408If only clans weren't so secretive and restrictive. Does the lolijiji at least release lore info publicly every now and then?
>>275099296Or maybe just maybe authors are like "imagine if games like these existed". How crazy would that be...
>>275126750Clearly they brought the Dragon's Dogma creative director on for the game.
>>275126750>you're randomly playing around>sudden dev announcement>Attention to all players! The 7th collosi has been beaten by [...]>the game is now over. Thanks for playing Shangri-La Frontier! You'll be diconnected in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...>Logged out>Console explodes
>>275132688I can't believe this guy is now real
>>275119230no true gamer would have clicked no. where is your burning vorpal spirit, anon?
>>275131389thats like saying someone with a rifle in combat would get bored of pulling the trigger>SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT
>another thread of the retard that can't comprehend a game made with more advanced tech that isn't analog garbage>OMG PEOPLE CAN MOVE AND DO INSANCE REFLEXES? SO UNREALISTIC TO THE TETRIS GAMES!!Kill yourself already.
