KOWASHITAI!
>>727782595I really liked this gameI mean it's not great but it was still fun
>>727782683This game would have been received better if it was marketed as an Atlus game with Fire Emblem elements instead of a crossover. Still more sovlful than any SMT game though.
>Sold worse on a more popular console despite intense tendie shillingA shame Atlus has learned nothing from this or Soul Hackers 2
>>727784179It was censored. Got what it deserves, really. Soul Hacker was rushed out garbage and it sucks, it's too bad.
i hate idolshit so much
>>727786224Do Jap idols even have the same level of cultural chokehold that Kpop idols do
>>727784179You don't know anything. Just stop posting. Just stop posting.
>>727786147Oh please, enough of this culture war nonsense.Fire Emblem Fates sold millions despite the complaints that localization that so it's clear that the problem was always the game being too much idol and weeb focused instead of an actual crossover.In fact i say the localization helped it because it got rid of all of the stuff that FE and SMT didn't want out of a crossover, aka, the weeb pandering.
>>727787489It still has weeb pandering, but it's only pathetic instead of occasionally meaningful. I would've bought it if it was uncensored. Instead, I had to rig up an emulator with fan patch. It's not a very good game regardless. Fire Emblem fans have zero standards as long as they can play matchmaker with their self-insert.
>>727782683It's the most aggressively 'okay' game atlus has ever put out. Didn't mind my playthrough but it was mostly in one ear and out the otherI like tsubasa's fat tits tho
>>727787489>tripfag is retardedThis game isn't FE retard it was a new game with some FE and SMT stuff. Idolshit is fuckhuge in japan. We're talking about a game that had a clear vision and then got it's balls cut off. Nobody, no japs especially would have a bought a rerelease that's WORSE.
>>727787882yeah this
>Game releases in the west censored (literally creates a big shitstorm on /v/)>Game gets rereleased on the Switch, still censoredWhy?
we need a new TMS focusing on underground idolshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nTIxdhJNYY
>Defending both of Atlus' weaboo bag fumblings in the Year of Our Lord 2025
can't believe i bought this piece of shit
>>727789724I fully intended to microwave the disc upon completing it but I just couldnt bring myself to finish it
>>727782812>would have been received better if it was marketedthe only thing i recall about this game was was a censorship debacle.
>>727784179I haven't heard anything about soul hackers 2 but I see it on like 90% off on steam a lotWhat's wrong with it?
>>727790241I suggest you buy it and try it for yourself, it's got pretty good production value but shitty writing in my opinion.
>>727787882>>727788853Piracy is illegal Anon, you should have just not played it at all.Not to mention that even if the localization was faithful to the Japanese version it would have still failed because like i said, that's not what the SMT or FE fanbases cared about, it was doomed with or without the swimsuits and all the other stuff they altered.>>727788797Bigotry against trips aside.The game is supposed to be Fire Emblem, it was advertised as such, even after everyone knew what it was it was still advertised as being Fire Emblem, it even has Fire Emblem characters so you can't say it's not Fire Emblem.Despite idols being huge in Japan the game still failed in Japan too, and i'm talking about the original Japanese Wii U version so clearly the localization isn't the reason why the game failed, it failed because no SMT or FE fan, even the Japanese ones, want idols, dance numbers or weeb/otaku pandering in a crossover game between SMT and FE.And it's not a worse version, it's an altered version. Boobs and butts doesn't make anything better.
>>727790241Atlus did the thing where they hype a new Megaten-focused game only for it too be a dime store Persona game.
>>727788963Because people are using the localization as a scapegoat and it never mattered and was never the reason why the game failed.FE Fates despite its localization sold millions so clearly the FE fans at least don't mind it.To fault the game's failure on the localization is culture war grifter scapegoating, focusing on what better fits their narratives instead of focusing on the real problems.
>>727790969>Make gooner game>Sells poorly>Remove goon features>Sells even more poorlyThe vagina bones guy was unironically correct
>>727788241Respect women . Lust is not respect it's a sin and a curse.
>>727790015Well then you were only following grifters because the biggest issue people had with the game from the start is that it look like SMT or FE and the first trailer felt like a lie.
>>727791067The characters in this game are all very generic regardless of sex appeal. Nobody actually gave a shit about the censorship it was just an excuse to further shit on a garbage gameSee: Bravely default Tons of cucks said they'd botcott it because of le censored bravo bikini and lo and behold it was a best seller because the game itself was too good to be bogged down by asshurt porn addicts
>>727791236>Further shit on a garbage gameBut then why did Bravely Shart sell
>>727791067Well first of all the game was never intended to be a gooner game, the context of it all is that the main character needed to learn how to be more comfortable with what it takes to be an idol, although gooners never understand or even respect the context behind anything so no matter what they would disrespect and never understand the context of that scene.Secondly the localization was clearly done to not go against Nintendo's family friendly image in the west, Sure there was Bayonetta at the time but that was only because Nintendo tried, and failed, to get more adult gamers to the Wii U and Bayonetta's 2's failure really proves how little these gooner games sell even with everything in tact, especially on Nintendo systems, Bayonetta just never really sold good.Thirdly, like i said FE Fates sold millions despite its localization so clearly this was never a problem to actual FE fans, all the people who complained about TMS' localization were people who were not only never going to buy the game no matter what but people who never even heard of the game until the news happened.And lastly, there's no proof that the game would have sold more if the localization was 100% faithful to the Japanese version and as proven by the Japanese sales of the original Wii U version the game would have failed no matter what. Any more sales that the game would have gotten from having an 100% faithful localization would have been so small and insignificant that it wouldn't matter how much the game was altered in the first place.
>>727791823>Nu-FE>Actual Fire Emblem fans
>>727791236Also this.>>727791358Because your personal opinions on a game does not reflect the opinions of the majority.
>>727791921Well that just goes to show that even the new FE fans who don't mind or even like the localization changed to the franchise hate TMS for how idol culture it is instead of an actual crossover.
>>727787489I think with Nintendo first party franchises, the fans literally eat up whatever shit they get served - that’s why over half their shit still isn’t voiced in 2025.
>>727791921Also what cartoon is that?
>>727791236You deserves what you tolerate.
>>727793336>>727791823
This is the worst, most cucked tripfag I've ever seen.
I’m glad this censored garbage flopped twice.
>>727790241It has nothing to do with Soul Hacker 1 and it's a very cheaply made game.
>>727787489Tripfag being a retard as usual. It sold worse use due to censorship because they applied the censorship to the JP version as well for the port. It was one of the few rare cases where you could cancel the preorder because they didnt let the consumers in Japan know they applied the western censorship to their region as well.
Just filter this tripfagging moron.
>>727792018Well of course, this has been the case for decades now.
>>727790241It looks and plays like a generic PSVita rpg
>>727793465Read the thread, the localization was never the issue.>>727793663Like i keep telling you people Fates sold millions despite its localization yet you people never acknowledge it.The game was going to fail even if the localization was 100% faithful and honestly i'm tired of having to repeat myself.And no, the Japanese port sales proves nothing. The game sold worse on Switch in the west as well, people just know how mediocre of a game it is and didn't return as well as such weeb/otaku pandering never selling well anyway.Also, hating on someone and writing off what they have to say all because of a trip code is unironically bigoted.>>727793461>>727793752The same goes for the two of you as well.
>>727790241Extremely bland combat and extremely boring dungeons are the two biggest issues, with a helping of extremely jewish DLC and wasting the potential of being a supposed "sequel" entirely.Opinions on the story and character designs are mixed.But at the very least, Atlus was able to harvest a good amount of demon models from its corpse for the rerelease of SMTV.
When will people learn to stop replying to tripfags?
>>727782595Kowashita posting always made me laughThanks for the blast from the past
>>727794701How bad was the DLC?
>>727782595>Whoa, SMT x FE? That sounds badass!We were fucking robbed, never forget it
>>727782595The chef girl was cute.
>>727782595I got this not too long after launch for the Wii U out of sheer curiosity. All things considered, it’s a pretty fun and mechanically Interesting JRPG but you really have to have a high tolerance to Idol-faggotry and the fact that it has very little relation to Fire Emblem and SMT. Theres a lot to like but theres a lot to hate too.
>no romantical endings or supports>can't breed this hagHATRED
>>727795104For $10 you get an extra dungeon, when the base game only has six, of which two are recycled themes from two prior ones. Oh, I guess there's also the digital dimension dungeon, but that's so long and lazy it may as well be from Neptunia.But don't worry, because this new dungeon includes a new party member! ...but not really, they're controlled by the AI and only in the new dungeon.And it also brings back the Zoma demons from the original Soul Hackers! ...but not really, they're just usual demons like Ippon-Datara and Setanta with a color swap.They also sell a DLC Demon Pack for $13, which includes Anahita, Zaou-Gongen, Masakado, Armaiti, Tzitzimitl, Satan, fucking MARA, and Nemissa. You know, the heroine from the original Soul Hackers, who sacrificed her existence in that game's ending. Here she is, haha.And of course, the usual Atlus costume DLC, letting you dress up the four playable characters in outfits from Soul Hackers 1, Raidou, SMT4, Persona 4, and Persona 5... also for $13. And they only show up in battle.
>>727795104Besides the obvious EXP + Macca grind dlcs that current Atlus loves to make. Some popular demons like Mara and Masakado were locked behind dlc + Nemisa from SH1 (The version of her when she possesses Hitomi, not the real version that appears at the end of SH1)
>>727782595I remember liking the UI and the girls. Shouldn't have been censored.
>>727795119Should have been a straight up crossover.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eYf3OHqq9s>>727796113Ew. But that does remind me, who are the mirages for the new playable characters?>>727796532>>727798078Wow, that is bad.>>727798487We already discussed how the localization ultimately didn't matter.
>>727787489>tripnigger is a gigantic faggotLeast shocking thing I've seen on /v/ today
>>727798487At least there's a mod for this and Fates to return everything the tree house troons took out.
>>727799003See >>727794196>Also, hating on someone and writing off what they have to say all because of a trip code is unironically bigoted.>>727799186Majority of fans didn't even download that mod they just accepted the localization.Also TMS was localized by Atlus so saying it was done by Nintendo Treehouse is ignorant.
>IS makes half of Fates a Japanese culture wank-off session>it flops compared to the other half>IS makes a spin-off title that’s a Japanese culture wank-off session>it flops and then flops again in a rerelease>IS makes their next mainline installment a Japanese sentai and anime tropes wank-off session>it flops so hard that they go back to the setting of the game made by outsourced devsCan they fucking stop with the Japanese self-fetishization please.
>>727798883>new playable characters?>playablelmao
>Kowashitai keeps being attributed to Tsubasa>when the real best girl Kiria is the one who sang it
>>727800103>Advertise one half of your game as being casualized dogshit made for Awakening babies>Make all the characters hideously racist (but justifiably so) and expect it to sell well in the westI can't imagine why no one would want to buy it
>>727782595i liked it. i didnt know what "smt x fire emblem" was going to be from that teaser and i certainly did not expect this, but it was still a fun time, even if i'm not into the whole japanese entertainment industry thing.
>>727782595I love this game. If this was rereleased uncensored for Switch 2, I would buy Switch 2 just for it. They will never do that and if the did another release, it would be even more censored.I should emulate the Wii U uncensored version before I can no longer find it.
>>727791218I got all my info about the game from /v/ threads at the time.
