Thoughts on anime games made by western devs
>>72064211899% of the time cringeOni was on the edge of so cringe it became kino, helps that the combat was actually engaging.
>>720642118Very cringe with ugly art, especially when the western devs are brits.
>>720642118Unironically needs a remake (asuming they actually fix it instead of dumbing down the original)
>>720643157every time I replay it, it always shocks me how ugly the airport and facility levels are, just totally jet black like they forgot to put a skybox in
Some hard obsession this morning...
>>720642118Best gameBest endingKonoko is for love and careNo jokes
i don't think anyone would defend the plot or cutscenes in onibut the gameplay is great and i'm sad remember me (had to look the name up) couldn't recapture that magic
>>720644373What's the problem with the plot?
>>720642118I think Oni's in-game art actually nailed the PS2-era "anime game" look. The promo art was a bit western/deviantART-ish though.
>>720644064which ending?there were twokind of bullshit that you have to spare the police cunt if you want the good ending
Name another anime game made by westerners that's good
>>720645627Hades 2.
>>720645846eew
>>720645627Little Goody Two Shoes(if you consider Portugal West.
>>720642118>anime style made by non-japs, the west; :(>anime style made by non-japs, china: :D
>>720646474Still better than manwha.
American JRPG
>>720646868American JRPG (Quake 2 engine)
is this anime?
>>720647178It's closer to manwha.
>>720647389oh fuck off koreaboo
>>720645398>that you have to spare the police cunt if you want the good endingI love Oni but that really pissed me off. After killing two entire buildings full of your former coworkers (who also raised you from birth,) the game rewards you for sparing the one guy who deserves it, immediately after he proves he deserves it.
>>720647502It wasn't a compliment.
>>720642118i remember owning this gamenever played itis it any good?
>>720645353>I think Oni's in-game art actually nailed the PS2-era "anime game" lookthat's because IT WAS ON THE PS2
>>720646440>yurifag job simulator with le spoopy undertonesno
>>720648903It's OK when Portugal does it.
>>720642118I miss that winged hair style in anime
>>720642118Remember to play the PC version. The PS2 version was made much worse with it's controls. I still have my release day copy. I used to follow news from this game and Halo every day on bungie's website as a teenager. Too bad it updated like once every few months back then lol
>>720642118Oni plays like a dream. It's so smartly made>Konoko blocks strikes when standing motionless (it seems like a no brainer, a button masher won't benefit from this)>Konoko grapples when pushing into an enemy's hitbox and using one of her attack keys>pick up and holster weapon are the same key, just context sensitive (because you're not standing on top of a new gun 99% of the time)>ammo management is just divided between 2 types so you're encouraged to pick up some alternate guns sometimes without being too forceful
>>720648632I don't think anon was implying otherwise. He's just saying it embodies the era.
>>720647545You don't have to accept that she killed her coworkers, really. It could be she's just beating them unconscious, as long as you're not using guns. Then, yeah, it seems kind of plausible she's murdering them.
>>720645846Hades Is Tumblr.
>>720643741They should have made more colorful billboards and shit. A future dystopia should be full of colorful ads. It's pretty clear the game was rushed in these parts because of how drab everything is. They even skipped out on their plans for multiplayer which I'm still salty over.
>>720645353the concept art is really good desu
>>720651607Bungie had intelligent guys involved before microsoft got into the studio after Halo 1.People back then said Bungie sold out, they were right. Microsoft utterly ruined the company and the people in it.
Oni's promo art is gorgeous. I had no hesitance buying a box with art on it.
>when you kick down 3 other enemies while swinging on their friend's neck
>>720646986I'm still pissed this game never got a sequel. Everything about this game was brimming with charm and the fact that the story is forever unfinished is just a damn shame. There will never be anything even remotely like it and we're poorer for it.
I wish Oni had a modding scene. Anniversary Edition was great, but it needs new levels to make up for the boring ones.
>>720642118Most time it's cringe as fuck. Even when it's some fan using the photo mode, it's usually just le reference. Some studios that started on anime aesthetics at least managed to make it their own, like WayForward and Shantae.But just as much as they can be cringe, a lot of the time it's also very sincere designs. Not a 'how to draw manga' style, more that it's just what they as a fan wanted.
>>720642118I remember playing a demo of this game as a kid over and over again and it always kicked the shit out of me because I didn't really understand the controls
