>>724296760
I'm playing it right now and really enjoying it. The world/music/characters are all pretty great and reminds me when games in general would just throw you into an insane fantasy world like likable niggas who happen to be in a row.

Gameplay is fun theres a lot of messing around with synergies of effects and combat is like Paper Mario. So like basically it reminds me of at least 3 things before they went to shit the last being France itself. And maybe the whole world. I'm pretty sure that's what the game is about.
>>
>>724296848
I should have added this to my last post saying how I enjoyed the game to that guy who wanted to play it. Overhype almost ruined the game for me because retards were acting very fucking weird about and almost turned me off but I waited till a sale and got it and avoided all discussion ahead of time. I even see people on expedition 33 webzones mock those people who think it's the only good jrpg on the last 20 years. But its actually good.

It's the same with metaphor. People have an autistic obsession towards FF and they use it to advertise the other games instead with shitposting.

>>
>>724301339
oscars is just j's giving themselves and their favorites awards and circle jerking.

They think they can replicate that for gaming where the woke and neutral (Clare Obscura) products gets exposure whilst shunning non-woke and male gaze games. Thing is most people don't care and know it's all pozzed like metacritic scores from establishment game journos.
>>
>>724296760
its good. thats it.

and you pretty much have to be ok with turn based rpg stuff and timing dodge/parry for it still count as good, because if you dont then its not the game for you.

its not 10/10. its not perfect. it has flaws. its pretty and the music is great. for what it is, its fun and cool. its just plain good. as such, i definitely say that its worth it. ignore the glazers and people that put it on a pedestal. ignore the haters. the only "hate" you need to consider is whether you can tolerate a turn based rpg with dodging/parrying QTE timings. if yes: its good and worth it. if no: its probably not for you then, but maybe just look up a cutscene compilation on youtube or something.

>>724296760
6.5/10. ugly art, ugly characters.
garbage story. they went for the lazy GoT shock tier writing but because they forgot the part where after GoT killed all the characters anyone gave a fuck about, the show became utter dog shit.

combat is fun until it gets broken by the middle of Act II. Anyone with an IQ above 80 can figure out that running a bunch of multipliers will cause your damage to skyrocket

progression system is ass too. imagine a skill tree where you rush the one good skill in the tree and then just spam it 24/7. that's pretty much E33. the other half of the tree is pointless and you're just wondering what the point of it is.

the fact that niggas think it's GOTY or some all time great game is fucking wild to me. it's like superhero slop movie, some niggas might watch it but it's not really worth remembering or giving a fuck about once you're done.
>>
>>724296760
It's good but very overrated. Like you will enjoy it you like JRPG's like FFX or Lost Odyssey but don't expect the story to be as good as FFX despite how much fags jerk it off as the seconding coming of Christ.

People like it simply because a good JRPG like game that isn't stereotypically anime is like an oasis in the desert.
>>
>>724305168
they all went his cock in their ass, if they could get it and not cause problems at the studio they would do it

Every company that gets too much praise will be ruined by it, at least western ones.

Think of it from the point of view of you running the company, what would happen to your workers demands over wages if they all get big heads? you either have to pay more on wages to them, or lose them and have to hire new.

If you pay more, this increases pressure for success on future games, higher prices, more preorder stuff, less features, lower dev time, more censorship etc

If you don't, you have to take all new people, who are not as good as those that left.

The two studios I expect to product slop next time are this company, and Larian.

>>
>>724305938
Lmao no. The whole twist completely undermines the characters and raises questions about the morality of killing sapient life and how apparently painters can just do that with no consequences (other than muh escapism) which is never addressed.

FFX had better world building and stronger thematic consistency. E33 can't even address the moral quandary of whether the people of the painting are real and the characters barely react with any existentialism once they learn they're just products of someones imagination where as the characters of FFX are always debating about Yuna's imminent death and if it's right to sacrifice herself knowing Sin will return and questioning Yevon as a whole. Soundtrack is also better, just because it has more range than E33 as per Uematsu.
>>
>>724306301
just sounds like you're trying hard to hate on E33 while putting X up on a pedestal
>>
>>724296871
I loved it for the exploration. It kind of took me back to earlier final fantasies where you'd find an area and have no idea what you stumbled into, endless tower, the bald mime, the mansion in the sky, renoirs drafts, the hidden arena etc. I feel like a lot of recent open world games forget that exploration meant having something to fucking find instead of checking off bandit camp 72/103

>>724306746
There isn't enough information to determine why the writers did anything. Anything you say is just conjecture and still doesn't address anything stated. We know there is some arbitrary war conflict that resulted in Verso dying and Alicia being burned and thats it. We know nothing about either sides motives. As a self contained game it's worse, since FFX was written with a beginning and end that work. DLC isn't an excuse.

The twist undermines the game rather than heightening anything and raises questions that are never answered. The conflict about the 'painting' is also contrived as hell, since apparently you can create pocket dimensions and there are no moral or ethical constraints to doing so and the game hand waves it the same by not addressing it alongside the real existental themes that countless media habe raised before, 'if it's human and acts human then it's basically human' and none of it is addressed as part of the main game. Lore and story are different.

The game tries to make me care about the family who have enacted genocide for generations, and pigeon whole you into the Verso ending simply because the Maelle ending is bad because after she dies the painting will be destroyed. Both endings are bad and result in me not caring about the story since I'd rather the painted family die and everyone else be left alone in the Painting. Verse tries to act like his endless suffering is bad despite the fact that generations of men women and children have died for years on end and I'm supposed to give a shit about his endless life which allows these people to survive? Cry me a river. Needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, and the family drama is small potatoes compared to the countless suffering of the people in the painting.

>>724307317
Nu-FF fans would, and who cares about them

>>724307472
tl;dr you didn't do any side content with painted clea where she explains why the writers hate them

>>724306301
>>724307472
gotta love brainlets like this who need everything explained to them and can't handle any sort of ambiguity
you think the game is forcing you to care about the family when that's not the case at all
>>
>>724307712
Doesn't explain anything other than Clea fighting a war against the painters and giving context to Clea's power. Also, the difference between lore and story and as a self contained story is worse and still doesn't address my arguments but you're such a drooling retard I doubt you even read my argument.

>>724302880
Lune isn't flat, she has normal sized tits for her build. The vast majority of fit athletic women do not have gigantic tits. She is still very pretty though and pleasing to look at without resorting to over the top gratuitous sexuality at the expense of realism because it's supposed to be a grounded and relatable game.

My argument was that as a self contained story its worse and it is. Ambiguity is fine but not when it's at odds with the characters the game is trying to get me to care about especially when the central conflict is never fully explained and used as a 'get out of addressing difficult questions' card. You should develop reading comprehension before posting.

Expedition 33 did good, but not "holy shit" good saleswise. FF15 sold far and away better, and it was shit.
Don't know why people think Square would be chasing E33 numbers, when they've previously said their own games having E33 numbers "did not meet expectations" because their expectations are dumb.

It's okay for SE games to sell poorly because they were never aiming for big numbers. Why can't you all understand that?

If E33 was pure turn-based, it would've flopped. That's why they have action-based actions/parries/etc.

>>724311332
They ARE aiming for big numbers. That's why they wouldn't want to aim for Exp 33. Too low for retarded SE, despite it being good enough with reasonable budget constraints.

Now we need get SE added beefy muscles Tifa
>>
>>724311371
We're certainly in a time when that sort of thing is popular. It's not like it's unique to E33 tho. Even FF8 had timing on Squall's attacks, a bunch of them had inputs for certain Limit Breaks etc. SE are free to innovate, as they used to do.

Pretty much the trap they're in. For a while they were system sellers, top 10 best selling games each generation. They still budget their games to be that but no longer reach the audience for it.
You'd think Automata taught them a lesson, it being one of their most profitable, but it's probably also lightning in a bottle.

What who is aiming for? The E33 devs? It exceeded every expectation. Of SE? Their huge size means they need more profit just to fund operating costs. Nothing except FF14 has put up acceptable numbers and even that is on the way out.

I wouldn't say I thought it was important but unironically Nine Sols not getting a nomination for indie goty last year showed me the entire awards are owned by chinks (yes, even though wukong didn't win)
>>
>>724314657
They would almost certainly be happy with E33’s ROI. The problem with numerical expectations is that they ultimately just boil down to ROI. E33 had crazy ROI and any game maker would have adored all the free money. Pokemon games, for example, apparently have asinine ROI.
>>
>>724314920
Nine Sols was too niche and too unknown. While it was definitely the best indie, I doubt many people would even recognize it.

Could Square Enix realistically buy them ? Having a team of western weeb devs that still understand western sensibilities could be useful.
>>
>>724314951
nu-square would never be able to get fagspedition 33's roi out of it, because their investment in it would be 100x more money because square is a bloated fucktarded company that lost the fucking plot a longnass fucking time ago, and not a handful of gay french retards shitting out parryslop unstraight troongineslop, retarded NIGGER

Yea, I did mention 4chan has a thriving disabled community. Every time we have this discussion, we go over FFX's convoluted story and how it ultimately undermines the dream aspect of Tidus's story, leaving it weak and forgettable. Then we contrast it with E33, which maintains a tight, focused act structure that never drift, making its final premise land with far greater impact. After that, you cope, seethe and kneel. It's a tale as old as time.

I do have some problems with it, but nothing big that ruins he game
1. the balance is horrible, easily breakable and that leads to RPG mechanics being outshined by parry/dodge mechanics.
2. The emotional hook/connection (the prologue) barely matters in the end, in fact nothing matters except the family cycle of grief, and it is a hit or miss if you dont end up caring about it. Me, for example. I dont have a problem with Gustav dying, but nothing about Sophie or him ended up mattering later.
3. due to the plot twist, Lune and Sciel dont matter at all

E33 was 9/11 for FFfags. Even after E33 fans have moved on, FFfags will not. They'll be seething forever.
There is literally no reason for anyone to be mad about E33. A small (white) team made a good game not based on an existing IP and it was a hit. It's the only truly feel good game industry story we've had in a decade. It's a miracle it happened in the middle of the worst hellscape the medium has ever gone through. The ONLY reason to be mad about it is if you're a FF retard who is threatened by its mere existence. They also have no reason to seethe at Metaphor. Nobody else even gives a shit about Metaphor. Only FFfags talk about Metaphor. But E33 committed the unforgiveable crime of being popular.

dawg I liked the game but be serious, E33 is basically attached to the hip when it comes to discussing FF or even Silksong at this point. It’s basically used as a vehicle for gamers to vent their frustrations with the games they don’t like and is almost always brought up only when mentioning goty. Meanwhile there are multiple FF daily and again, if E33 is brought up if at all it’s to spite Square, never in good faith of comparing two great franchises.

E33 is alright but massively overrated. Shitty art and shitty characters, whitoids can't write stories or characters worth a damn. I do respect the game for being turn based when even modern FF isn't doing that though.

I wouldn't I just want them to fucking commit 100% to whichever system they decide to go with, turn based, action or hybrid. nothing sucks more than half assed normie coded systems in 15 and 16. and even in remakes they didn't push this hard enough, with good systems there should be a level of mastery present when you invest time and effort in learning it. final fantasy didn't have this since 12.

something, ironically, FF7 rebirth did much better. Its not a parry simulator.
>>
>>724330492
Lol
I know it's bait
But I played rebirth on release for 150 hrs and despite the ending being horrid I loved it
I will never play it again though, ever.
E33 I expected to be a 7 and it ended up being the best game since bloodborne. I think about it daily even if just for a brief second. I still think of FFX 20 years later and I bet I will with e33 as well. Rebirth is nothing. It's a good game but it's soulless and a corpo product full of fluff and not true to what fans want. E33 is masterful and exactly what I've wanted since ff went off the rails with 11 and 22

>>
The game is fine but it's not amazing. There's either been too much shilling put into it or the current state of RPGs is just so sad that people get overly excited for crumbs.
The story is pretty disjointed, with limited narrative and character interactions. The game pulls you in with the prologue and its dramatic cinematics but once you're on the beach and free to play the game, the narrative just tanks and it continues like that till the very end. The side content is just more reskinned enemies to fight. The two hubs with NPCs don't really have anything going on for them aside from one or two short quests.
The combat goes from mediocre to obnoxious. You're either slammed with spastic parry ballets where you get oneshot if you fail to parry one hit from a 10 hit chain that's not even synchronized, or you just instantly delete the enemies.
Sure it's better than the low tier final fantasy games but that's a very low bar.
The game's strong points are the music, map design and atmosphere.

>>724308335
hybrid system where action and turn based are both nuanced systems but swapping between them on the fly has its own strategic value, ie debuffs will expire in real time so you can dodge and parry your way out of being silenced instead of wasting 3 turns, but turn based has more unavoidable damage that you have to mitigate.
also kill stagger, stop bringing back atb's corpse when you have the kh mp system, especially don't use individual cooldowns for shit when that exists, don't make single player character action games for babies, don't force me to constantly swap characters just to keep playing without interruptions. Bring back gambits, bring back debuff/buff based jobs/characters, bring back FFX style stat and spell grinding (the systems for weapons/aeons, the sphere grid can sit in the cuck chair), and don't lock 80% of the combat options behind 20+ hours of gameplay (8 hours of which are cutscenes)

The more time passes the more it becomes obvious that the people who go around accusing everyone of being Indians or some other flavour of third worlder are just projecting.

How is this sad news? He's right.

Another flop then.

I can't imagine being this stupid. Endorsing the game that's currently raping you in the ass at 1% of the budget?
>>
>>724296760
I really don't like it and i feel like i'm taking crazy pills because everyone loves it. The gameplay is annoying and overly reliant on the parry mechanic, i personally hate the art style which granted is a subjective thing but i really do feel like it has very poor visual clarity which in turn makes me not want to explore because all areas look like a vague, blurry mess of debris, the characters are mediocre and the story is the most baffling part for me because for 80% of it it's mystery box bullshit where you're being led on by the big mystery, except you can figure it out very easily so it's not particularly impactful, the "twist" itself is mediocre and it just ends up being babby's first moral dillema. It's a boring game with mediocre combat, mediocre exploration, mediocre characters and a mediocre story. If anything i feel like i was tricked by it having a good premise, but that only holds up for the first couple of hours. I genuinely cannot find anything particularly special about E33

How to spot someone that never played the game and just lived in /v/ threads soaking up spoilers to form an opinion over.

>>724338734
how is he wrong tho
>>
>>724338858
I mean for one the ending choice isn't even a moral dilemma so never mind babies first it isn't even one in the first place. Dumb retard was wrong from the first step.
>>
>>724338734
I did play it though, even if i can't prove it to you. If your only defense is claiming that i didn't then we're at an impasse. But i promise that i did, from beginning to end and my biggest feeling about the story was just annoyance
>>
>>724339015
Nah this isn't just a "trust me bro" situation if you actually did see the twist coming a mile a way you should be capable of explaining your reasoning. You can't just pull that shit out of your ass there needed to have been something that let you supposedly figure out the entire plot from the begging. Explain it if you can you can't.

>>724338293
what is the crossover demographic of the two games where one is pervasively affecting the other?
>>
>>724296585
Agreed.

There is so much I hate about the remakes, but there is 1 thing I love for 2 things I hate. I am excited for snowboarding in part 3.

Flogslop 33 is just a worse Final Fantasy X.

No. Parryslop33 is essentially just the plot of FFX and Dark Souls 3 mashed together. Hell that is what the gameplay is too.
>>
>>724339731
it's nothing like FFX. i will never understand why people who haven't played E33 keep comparing them. there is a song that sounds like it's from FFX for about 5 seconds, but that's it.
>>
I can't wait for E33 to sweep the awards, and win GOTY. Gonna love seeing squeernix and fatlus fanboys seethe.

Brand recognition and resources

Because Ubisoft is big, it can invest in big budgets, AAA quality, and big IPs. For many players, that translates into polished visuals, major voice acting, big marketing campaigns etc.

If you’re looking for “safe bet” titles with strong global support, big studios like Ubisoft typically offer that.
>>
>>724296760
It has a great plot, great vocal tracks, looks good, the girls are hot and the battles are simple and tricky enough to be fun. For the rest, it's kinda basic. You walk around, fight enemies, collect loot. It would be decent to good in 2007. In 2025 it's such a net improvement over everything else you better drop on your knees and worship it

E33's theme is coping with loss. That isn't X's theme at all.

>>724340520
nta but explain how they're the same

>>724303187
This, it's good, but good games are rare now. It's done by millennials skilled enough to do it and clueless enough to not make a pact with the devil to make it. Watch the publisher though. The POZ machine will go after it fast

He knows GOTY when he sees it. That Persona rehash didn't deserve it, nor did Astroturf Bot (replacement for Concord's paid win). Rebirth deserved GOTY last year.

You realize X is about overcoming pragmatic traditions and generational deceit right?
E33 has some similar, if not outright paralleled plot beats with it but the world existing as an unmaintainable simulacra for the "benefit" of one person is not the same as a simulacra choosing to sacrifice itself for the good of a salvageable world.

nta but to an extent it is, dream zanarkand is a cope world created out of Yu Yevon's inability to deal with the loss of his city, in that way the games are pretty similar

He's retarded. Any time someone mentions "dream" in relation to ffx you can discredit everything they say. unless they're talking about the actual dream flashback sequences

in an industry hellbent on nepotism, violent leftist rhetoric, brainwashing, and money laundering, when a small team shows up and obliterates all of that brutally and effectively, assets must be deployed to defend the corporate illusion that games need to cost 600 million dollars, require 500 leftist developers, and 1900 pajeets to be good.
