So was it Euro occultism, black-white magic cast by masons, that caused the game to be be so hauntingly beautiful?Playing it, I felt like I was under some spell.
>>720717658You probably don't see it much, especially on this board, but that's not magic it's just good game design combined with passion for the final product. The feeling you have is called "fun".
>>720717658>black-white magicNah, Final Fantasy has that on lock.
>>720717709>it's just good game designWhat about this crap for women has "good game design"? It practically plays itself and requires minimum input. That's good game design to you?>Combined with passion for the final product.Despite clearly having enough money/connections to afford obnoxious levels of shilling, the devs used unreal assets.
>>720717812>It practically plays itself and requires minimum input.Sounds like you didn't play it.
the fact that they remained true to their vision of a child's painting fractured by his parents for the entire game did it for me, visuals and the heavy use of bloom making it dreamlike/surreal. Perfect art direction in my opinion.
>>720717798KEK
>>720717658they sure seem to like that number...maybe it was magic
>>720717856Oh, please enlighten me about the game's deep, complex gameplay that requires one to use many different inputs and stay focused the whole time. Because clearly we're not talking about this one.
>>720717658>magic cast by masonsThe weird part to me isn't really how good the game looks or plays while you're in it, that's like >>720717709 said, just good game design. What weirds me out is how long it's been stuck in my head. I still, 3 months after playing it, still think about it almost every day.
>>720717658Europeans know how to make art unlike americans, that's all
>>720718068So you didn't play it. I always knew that 99% of you brownies who partake in these threads parrot nonsense without basis in the actual game.>enlighten mePlay the game.>requires one to use many different inputsYou measure quality of game design by by how "many different inputs" it uses? Man, Tetris must be the worst designed game ever by that retarded reasoning.
>>720717798you got a chuckle out of me motherfucker
>>720718186Yes, I do indeed measure the quality of gameplay by its complexity and how much effort you need to actually play it. This has zero, so no wonder women and normalfag bitches love it.Also if you want people to play the game so bad, maybe drop a torrent link next time.
>>720718159>americans: how much can I suck out of these suckers and how can I make the game all about me, myself and I>non americans: I want to make a fun game that I'd enjoy to play
>>720717658It would have been a 10/10 game if the performance was solid, and the game ended after beating the paintress.It still a fantastic game, just not a 10. I'd say a strong 8, or maybe even a weak 9
>>720718287>admits to being a retardYou can't even handle the complexity of having a conversation on the internet. If nothing else you make a fantastic argument for why mobile gaming is as popular as it is.
>>720718328It's fun because it requires zero skill or effort to play?
>>720718328so americans are jews?
>>720717709The gameplay sucked absolute fucking dick, I really hope it doesn't start getting parroted because it was an interesting experiment, and the results of the experiment are that it's shit.Some 5 hours in I was already hoping for the gameplay to end ASAP. The visuals and music were top notch though, and the story was alright too.
>>720718405This crap has mobile game tier "gameplay" so no idea what you were going for there, normie-kun.
>>720718463>Some 5 hours in I was already hoping for the gameplay to endYour ADD is not really something that can be considered our problem.
>>720718482you will never fit in
>>720717798
>>720717658you remind me of that furry schizophrenic who claimed this game was the work of the devil or whatever
>>720718517Why talk to yourself? None of normie faggots like you shilling shallow crap for women EVER fit in here. You just surround yourselves with your samefag discors echochambers then bitch and moan when faced with anyone who isn't part of your circle. Still haven't said anything defending the game's poor gameplay btw.
>and he ran awayTypical.
>>720718435The ones in control yes. Normal americans are cattle slaves
>>720717658It's called "eurosoul".
>>720719745Garbage for women =/= soul.
>>720719970What would you know about women, troony? Failing to be one doesn't give your silly opinion validity.
>>720717658The music did a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of atmosphere. I loved the gameplay and the actual artstyle, but the graphical fidelity wasn't much to brag about.
>>720720051That they love "cinematic" melodramatic bullshit about fee-fees that doesn't require any skill or experience with gaming to actually enjoy. So they love this game.
>>720718068Retard
>>720717658It's not technically all that unusual, the art direction is just top fucking notch
>>720717658it was made by white people, that doesn't mean it's magic
>>720717658It's the roar of a rising Europe against the whimpers of a dying America and the final sigh of a dead Japan. White always wins.
As far as the gameplay goes, I enjoyed how robust the Pictos/Lumina system was for customization, how the AP system works all in all, the ability to stack turns by manipulating speed, and how distinct each characters' individual skills are, as well as the trend of having each ability get an upgraded effect under certain conditions. Free aim and hitting weak points was also fun, and Gradient attacks are well implemented. However, the dodge/block system is a big, big albatross around its neck because of how much it overcentralizes everything. It turns every fight into a rote memorization check at its core (sans a very few optional ones with turn limits), devalues defensive buffs/builds and overpushes you into glass cannon builds. I like that there's so much breadth of possibility that you can crack the game in half, especially postgame, but it's way too slanted towards one-shots. Playing on Expert didn't really make it more interesting either (as higher difficulties usually do), just more tedious.

>>720722597That's a sad fish Anon.
>>720717798:(
i'm just here for lune feet
Why should i trust /v/ this is actually a good game, considering they said the same about BG3 and Metaphor, both mediocre at best RPGs?
>>720725049Because you clearly have shit taste and the best you can hope to achieve is probably listen to others and just hope you're surrounding yourself with sentient people.
>>720717857This. It feels really organic.
>>720718435Dodge vs Ford has been a disaster for American people.
>>720725049Because I liked it.
>>720717658it's a neat artbook tho
>>720717658no, it was the store bought assets, you monkey
>>720717798nice one

>>720718328In terms of video game quality goes:>Japan > America > The rest of the fucking planet except... >>> Shitropa
>>720717857>Perfect art direction in my opinion.Based art appreciator.
>>720717968People should have stopped buying the game at that point.
>>720720232He is talking about beauty, not the pixel count of textures.
>>720717658Finished it recently and loved it. Is the art book out in English?
>>720717709you angered ubisoft's jeet shills
>>720717812>the devs used unreal assets.may I see them?
>>720717658>magic cast by masons>33it's right there, baka
>>720729614Shave the labia, trim the bush into a neat triangle, simple as.
>>720717658French are just built different.
>>720717857Yeah everything about the game seems slap-you-in-the-face obvious on a replay, amazing that they leaned so hard into the reasonable expectation that we would assume it was another weird fantasy world. The presentation in this game is legendary.
>>720720051You're wasting time talking to an indian. You'd have as much luck talking to the cow he drinks piss from.
>>720722597https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aviowEjJjgg&ab_channel=BouchHe beats simon without 1-shot cheesing, too.
>>720724739>>720725049Pirate it and form your own opinion. /v/ had a tradition of pirating games and buying them later if you felt like supporting the devs before it became a blue porn board.
>>720717658>beautifulit's called soul
>>720717857My only problem with this is that it made a lot of the cool fantastical vistas feel... well, shallow maybe? Like in a Fromsoft game if you saw a frozen mountain littered with never-ending fires and ruined locomotives you'd be wandering around the place looking for clues on what the area is and how it got that way, and it'd be internally consistent. Here any weirdness can just fall back on "it's a literal child's fantasy painting + broken by its creators' fighting" and that's all the explanation you need and get, which deflates it a bit in my eyes.
>>720733689Their women certainly are.
>>720729614>>720733643Fags
>>720734953You missed the meta layer - that's all the areas in fromsoft games are, as well.
