Koei Tecmo has decided to slash the price of Fate/Samurai Remnant by nearly 50% due to poor sales, from ¥9,680 to ¥4,950. This discount will also apply to its global pricing (the game is currently sold at $59.99). So, /v/, why didn't you support the game?
Who?
Because they pussy out and didn't make Takeru a genderbend desipte him already being very feminine looking.
Koei Tecmo hasn't done a single thing right in years.
Can they push out a switch 2 patch for it?
>>720625593Nobody cares about your shitty toy, anon.
>Game is 2 years oldI would hope they'd lower the price at some point
>>720625373i mean just look at it, its a 60$ PS2 game
>>720625373>poor salesYeah, that happens when you make a shit game
>>720625678SteamDB page updated the bonus costumes that were never released on steam somehow.
>the game is currently sold at $59.99That kusoge is being sold at 70€ here. I wouldn't pay more than 5€ for it. I have gotten better games at a grocery store for 5€
only long time Fate fans would pay full price for a Fate game, and they all know better than to fall for a Sakurai story after her output in FGO.
>>720625373Fate is a trap IP. Nobody cares about the lore or characters. It's Touhou but more accessible genre instead of bullet hell.
>>720625373Im actually the target audience and i didnt buy the game. Ive been playing FGO for 7 years and played the related Japanslop events. I dont like Japanslop and Japan samurai wank. I prefer fate stories set in urban settings, modern world meets ancient heroes, and dont give a fuck about autist samurai and how their autism clashes with the rest of the setting.Also director is a retard and said that gacha gamers arent good enough for souls games that's why they made it a musou game. I dont like musou games (probably cuz i never played one).
>>720625373>KT is finally beginning to understand the concept of price elasticityWhat the fuck is going on.
>>720625373Of course it sold bad. The game series is not very known for the normies.Then for the price they wanted it for was not worth it with the little ingame content it had.Then we have the dogshit switch 1 port.
>>720626279>Then we have the dogshit switch 1 port.I mean the main audience is on Steam, so that doesn't matter anon.
>Saar, please support AA quality game from a Nipponese kamige developer for the low low price of $60. Please also buy the $40 DLCs....Silksong is only $20. KYS, Fatetrannies.
>>720626332Does silksong have a sexy loli foxgirl though?
Is this game finished now? Did they release all """"DLC""""?
Extella was already pure garbage, this one is probably the same.
>>720625373When does this take effect?
>>720625373the real reason is because the combat is fucking shit and that's coming from someone who enjoys Koei's Musou slop. they peaked with Three Hopes.
>>720625373>So, /v/, why didn't you support the game?because koei tecmo are as retarded as squenix, they do not know how to price, they just want and expect, then it never works.i love fate, i would not buy this game even at 75% off with that base price - the most of a discount is has had is 50% to date, years later. with the new base price, when it is 75% off, i might buy it.these people do not understand their games have no inherent price tag, their price is - supposed to be - determined by the competitionyour game is not worth 30 dollars 2 years after release, your game is not worth 60 dollars 2 years after release. your game is not worth 30 dollars when for that same 30 dollars you can get 2 or maybe even 3 games just as good - if not better - on the same marketplace for that value. your game does not retain almost any value over time unless it is exceptional, and no games are exceptional today. games retained value in the past because some were exceptional and because they held RESALE VALUE due to being physical media.]none of these companies have actually adapted to the digital market, they have the same expectations they always had. they still think they're competing with 400 games on a shelf max when they're competing with hundreds of thousands of games from the past 2 decades all at once, and their pricing has to reflect that competition.extella and extella links highest discount is STILL too high for the product they're offering. not by a huge margin, only by a very small amount, but it is still too high. samurai remnant is trying to charge 2.5x - at deepest discount - what extella does for its deepest discount
>>720625373>Fate games>Tales of Berseria>Trails of Cold Steel>a million others they all look the sameDoes anyone buy these low effort japslop games? How about a proper 7 player Fate game about a NORMAL grail war? The one time a battle royale would fit the source material perfectly.
>>720626741>How about a proper 7 player Fate game about a NORMAL grail war? Did you play it?
>>720625604shut up faggot>>720625545you too, dumbfuck
>>720626882KT fanboy? How on earth?
>>720626818The shitty singleplayer, low effort, KTslop? No, it has little to do with what I was talking about too.
>>720626882Just use a real gaming platform?
>>720625373lol, I'll never buy a $70 game.Publishers can bump it up all they want, but I'm not going to touch them.
>>720627051>7 player Fate game about a NORMAL grail war>No, it has little to do with what I was talking about too.You mean 7 player multiplayer dogshit slop that doesn't work like Grail War at all because it will have fixed character roaster and you can't emulate open world city-life? Did you hear about fate from reddit memes?
>>720626143It's a lesson that they'll never truly learn.
>shota MCGee I wonder why
>>720627201Sounds like you've consumed so much low effort japslop that you can't even imagine something not being a formulaic glorified dating sim.
>>720625373>get involved with Nintendo >go bankrupt Kek, now tendies will pretend they weren't celebrating their close relation in their shit general.
>>720627251What about it? It was best thing in Xenoblade 2>>720627136This>>720625373Not enough fanservice and I don't support publishers that censor games.>>720627373problem is censorship after bending to their globalists/americans. Japs prefer to suicide than go against amerimutts.
>>720625373>Due to Poor SalesIt absolutely says nowhere it got poor sales, you disingenuous OP. Game sold over 300k physical copies across all platforms in Japan alone during its first week. Game is over 2 years old and there have been several cases of Japanese games slashing down their original prices in Japan so they could have more legs in the long run, like Hatsune Miku Project Diva Megamix+.
>>720627273Sounds like you're delusional shartykek who never played full loot pvp games in his life. Le imagine doesn't work when some things are impossible to make in video game. Not only that but Grail War is all about characters and it's not your Dota. Go play EVE online.
>>720626331I highly doubt that.
OP is pulling shit out of his ass, this has nothing to do with poor sales, the devs literally already announced sales numbers and said it did well.It's getting a permanent price decrease because it's like 2 years old.I hate that you faggots literally make shit up and then of course every retard in the thread agrees with it blindly with "YEAH I DIDNT PLAY IT BUT I THOUGHT IT LOOKED BAD FROM A TRAILER I SAW ONCE LOL"
>>720625373Looked like shit
>>720626680That's a lot of words for you to say you don't want to pay the current asking price, anon.>>720626741>MultiplayerI'm so serious, please stay away from this franchise forever, thank you.
>>720627724>That's a lot of words for you to say you don't want to pay the current asking price, anon.nobody wants to pay their current asking price. you can explain to people asking you to pay 500k for a basic house or 50k for a rust bucket 16th hand car why their prices are stupid and hope they learn, or you can just say "i'm not paying that" and hope they can figure it out themselves. i would like koei tecmo to stay in business, so trying to break through their retard suits skulls and educate them is the more caring option
>>720627836Yeah you're definitely doing that by typing out essays on 4chan
>>720625373Is it good?I've only ever watched FSN and UBW btw. I remember trying to read pic for the amazing art and understanding NOTHING because apparently you have to play the shitty Gacha game.
>>720627973The artist of this manga is GOD
>>720627891>noooo i can't read anything more than 2 sentences long because i'm an adhd zoomie retardgood contribution
>>720627836>nobody wants to pay their current asking priceNot everyone is a poorfag who struggle to spend money on a single videogame, let alone complaining about discounts not being low enough.You sound like a steam sale junkie who needs to buy +10 games every month even if you lack the spare time to play them
the game's worth 40 bucks, not 60
>>720628158>Not everyone is a poorfag who struggle to spend money on a single videogame,This. We need flex tax for first world countries. Like +$100 for each video game you buy. To show wealth of the first world. Double the price for GPU too to filter dirty browns and other poors.
>>720625373>look at atelier firis>oh there's dx version now>still as expensiveKoei Tecmo would never ever discount their game even years later lol.
>>720626741Fate is best suited for VNs and anime spin-offs, any attempt at a real game will flop hard.
>>720626143I don't get KT's business tactics lol. They will keep their prices at the same as release for years on end. But the problem is that after X years you don't look at it and think "oh, guess I'll buy it anyway". It'll be more like "oh, this 5 years old game is still not on sale guess I'll just pirate this one and buy last year's and this year's game that's now on sale for 50%!"
>>720628357Yeah video games are supposed to be luxury in the first place. If you can't afford a videogame, maybe you should review your priorities first.>nooo how dare they to spend full-price on a piece of entertainment that lasts +30 hours and that they enjoy as a hobbyThe fact that plenty of people bought the Samurai/Remnant game on release makes certain individuals seethe like no tomorrow
>>720628591>any attempt at a real game will flop hard.In theory RPG, heavy classic RPG with multiple routes and shit tons of endings. Not something east can make tho.
>>720625373Oh so this is how Sony got it for this month's PS extra catalogue
>>720627517Yes it is. Who even owns a Switch beside little babies and normalfags?
>>720625373Nigger this is one of the most sold Fate games and nowhere in the article does it say that, are you retarded?
>>720625373why would anybody that's not a heavy fate nerd buy this game
>>720627273>>720626741>normal grail warNormal grail wars don't exist
>>720625373>[Sad News]>aren't sad at allBamboozled once more!
>>720629292Only 150 million people worldwide
>>72062966880% kids, 15% parents and normalfags.
>>720625373>So, /v/, why didn't you support the game?I have Fate fatigue
>>720627973If you want an action game, then there's better choices, if you want a Fate game then it's great. It's a fairly straightforward grail war story with a focus on a new cast but a lot of referential side characters, so it works even if you have minimal Fate knowledge but you do get a bit more out of it if you know all the side stuff being referenced.The combat is musou like but instead of big arenas like DW, it's more individual/group fights and then story moments. The game is fairly story heavy, closer to a JRPG in that sense than a typical action game. While not deep combat wise, I do think the mechanics are a good fit for the story as they do a good job of selling the difference in power between Iori and the servants early on, and the character switching is a good fit for master/servant in generalWhat you posted is a manga based specifically on a chapter of the gacha game, Samurai Remnant is more of its own thing with just "oh I know who that is" occasionally or moments you might understand things slightly ahead of time because you recognise someones armor or iconography, but it isn't written assuming that. >>720629305People like OP intentionally just say shit to be inflammatory because it gets responses. He knows what he's doing.
Fate is really full of kusoge, but due to Fate being a HOT IP the publishers always think they can charge top-dollar for it.Most (probably all) Fate games belong in a bargain bin alongside, like, Neptunia games.
>>720625373It looks neat, but>Fate
>>720632798Neptunia games also charge full price on release, anon. I think what you're trying to say is that you just want them cheaper.
>>720626332I wouldn't play Shitsong even if it's negative 20 dollar
>played until "good" ending>clunky as all hell gameplay, soul-draining grind>musou movesets but not really>80% MC instead of servants taking point>every boss, even mini-bosses are a slog with horrible rotation of infinite hyperarmor > break it to do 2 dmg > repeat 100 times for a single encounterthe story wasnt saving this one i fear
>>720625373Considering Koei is still in business there must be a lot of retards buying their $70 shovelware games
>>720626048>Also director is a retard and said that gacha gamers arent good enough for souls games that's why they made it a musou game.I mean, he's right you know. I see the logic. But the thing is they're not good enough for musou games either lol.
>>720625373How this blatantly low-effort cash grab sold even 1 copy is a miracle
>>720625931I can understand touhou hentai but for the love of me can't Fate ones, so I'll give touhou a win
>>720625373>Poor salesGee, I wonder why...
>>720625931>Fate is a trap IP. Nobody cares about the lore or characters.I'm honestly really confused by this statement. What did you even mean by this? I'm guessing by the Touhou comparison you're saying most people like it for the art or porn or whatever? Even then it's an absurd statement to say no one cares about Fate lore or characters.
>>720625373They should slash the price of all their decade-old games as well. These guys are the greediest kikes.
>>720629292Mostly weebs who play games like these.
>>720627973It's pretty fun. Ignoring the fake and gay shit in the OP about low sales or the Sakurai shitposter, it's a decent action game with the KT team (fortunately) doing 95% of the writing. While a low bar, it's also better than either Extella and stands just under the original two Extras as one of the better Fate games. Treat the bosses' shell gauges as their real healthbars and combat will make more sense
>>720626741Japs can only make slop, you would have to take the IP and give it to a western dev
>literally have a samurai spinoff about a grail war during ww2 with nazis and shit>make a samurai game with none of the actual good samurai servants instead
They cut the price because there's a collab event coming soon in FGO and they want people to buy the game.
>>720625373>game is cheaper>[Sad News]this is only sad if you're KT. why would you, the buyer, be sad? I guess if you bought it before the discount then you got fucked
>>720626401>expert swordgirl loli>her hardest challenge is to unsheathe her massive blade from her backHow does she pull it off?
>>720625373truth to be told, I think Fate are not suited to be mosou games. at best, it works best as an RPG or Arena fighter or like EXVS 2vs2 arena fighter.though FGO arcade is shit though, FGO arcade should have been a EXVS clone
This was by far the best jap action game released in the last 5 years, it was so fucking good. Its a crime against humanity it didn't get as much recognition as it deserved.
>Musashiwank gameNo thanks
>>720638504I think Mosou is the only genre it works in because its the only type of game where you'd be able to legit feel the power of the servants. They slaughter millions with screen covering attacks. And Remnant honestly might have the best mosou combat system I've seen yet because it managed to bring smart and tactics to it without making it feel slow.
>>720625373But I did buy it, i'm not even really I to fate and still brought it
how is this my problem?
this is a low quality AA game being sold at full price the Japs are out of touch retards
>>720625373Now I will buy your game.
I don't care for Musou type games and unless the story is retarded, Grail Wars are supposed to be secretive affairs with small scale 1v1 servant fights with Mage support, not open field mass slaughter fests. I'm not paying $80CAD for that.
>>720627498What a bait thread on the high quality /v/ board!?!
>Still no news on fate extra remakefuck you.
Really? when?
>>720626332Looks like from 2008. PS3 graphics
>>720638504>EXVS 2vs2True. Hell it's perfect. Easy to play/hard to master. You can do interesting thins with NPs too instead of fighting game EX dogshit >though FGO arcade is shit thoughTrue.Shame we will at best will get another dogshit fighting game instead of EXVS Fate editionDissidia is dead too
>>720625373Good. Have you seen how long Fate Excella Link remained at its price? How shit the discounts were until 3 years ago?
>>720625373>Make fate game>Ugly art style>Unpopular servants>Too many males>Shit story>Not a chaldea operationNot buying.If they wanted sales then they should have done avalon le fae with the canonical male main character.
>>720625373Why don't gachatards actually play real games?
>>720626741>Normal grail warVN fags continuing to prove that they are illiterate.
>>720625373I thought the gameplay was jank as fuck. Give me either extella 3 or a REAL action RPG
>>720627108He is, PCtroon.
>>720629831As opposed to 41% trannies and 59% turdworlder subhumans on PC.
>>720625373What the FUCK is his problem?
>>720625931Its the opposite. People care about the lore and characters so when people keep showing up with random OCs that have nothing to do with rin and shirou and sakura and saber and lancer and archer and illya, they are turned off by the game trying to piggyback off the fate name.
>>720625373>70 eurosWhy am I not even surprised they failed so hard?
>Accordingly, our company will also be ending support for Windows 10 on Tuesday, October 14th, 2025.They are fucking idiots.
>Muh racism outside of /b/for what purpose?
>>720645332They are literally pol tourists. They can't help themselves.
>>720627498It depends on their expected sales and costs. The amount sounds good but that doesn't mean that it isn't poor numbers for them. Capcom could sell twice the amount for a game but if it doesn't go over 1m, it's basically a flop for them. But you're right that it is typical for some publishers to cut prices and we don't know what Koei Tecmo expects or feels about their sales. On the other hand there are some popular titles, like say some much older Nintendo titles, that almost never drop in price. It's hard to say.
>>720625373they priced it too high from the start imo
>>720642345He misses his old ways
i played it, it was alright. starts off feeling sort of hard like nioh but then goes a bit dynasty warriors once you get stronger. feels like a temu version of both games but it's fine if you like fate.
>>720627498Not OP but if you read the article it does say it sold 300k in the first week which is really good, but then fell significantly after that. It makes sense when you think about it, Fate fans bought it right away but in this market at borderline triple a prices it failed to attract a new audience. Personally I loved it and want it to do well, I don't understand people here saying it was a cashgrab when it was a singleplayer game with mostly new characters and gameplay. I'm guessing most people shitting on it here didn't actually play it. I wonder how the game did if they factored in FGO sales from the collab.
>>720626048The audience wasn't the gachaslop players, it was actual Fate fans.
>>720648978An actual fan wouldn't even play that trash.
>>720649461Right retard
>>720648530>I'm guessing most people shitting on it here didn't actually play it.Got it in one
>>720642693>people care about the lore and characters>and by "lore" i mean "reasons to put saber in everything" and by "characters" i mean "colorswapped saber"
>>720648392He actually hates his younger chunni self now.

>>720625373Idc about fate, no1 does, only care about cumming to 11y old prisma's.
>>720654538I haven’t played a Touhou game in 15 years
>>720625373No loli no buy
>>720627973>Is it good?It's pretty decent depending how much you like Fate, it's not a game you play for the amazing graphics, you play for the actual gameplay and Fate shenanigans, it's more like a musou-lite. The game also has art from the same artist you posted and a similar setting.https://youtu.be/XWH6U_mHhkQ?si=5m4gcMl0eYXV1TM5
>>720625373>Have a bevy of characters people like and want to play in a real game>Keep making low effort musoushit with a bunch of new charactersWhy?

>>720625373just dont buy overpriced gamesand they have no choice but to lower the prices
>>720657937Pretty sure theres a site to download them
>>720627612>>720627498Thank you for clarifying. The bait was nonsensical to me because there is no way the Fate IP underperformed in Japan.
>>720659082Good theme
>>720625373I don't buy from Koei Tecmo or Gust after what they did to Blue Reflection. I hope they go under
