What makes this ok at best RPG so loved across all social medias? Is it a psyop?

they didn't advertise much pre-release but went all in with streamer partnerships at launch as some kind of simulacrum of "grassroots" word of mouth growth, every moistcritikal-tier normie youtuber was hyping it up as some kind of high art and most people just don't know any better

Because it's this year's industry plant and a "interactive cinematic narrative experience that proves games are no longer about *spits* gameplay but about mature storytelling and being ART!!!"
The average normalfag who gushes over this crap openly hates gaming and just wants to hold a controller while watching a movie. So pretty much the same audience as TLOU2, God of Snoy, Alan Wake 2, Hellblade 2 or walking simulators.
>>
>>728346503
E33 is literally 90% gameplay and is the most expansive JRPG in like 20 years.
>industry plant
The industry planted a game that offers more content for less money?

Walking, cutscenes and QTE's are not gameplay, kid.

Yes.
>>
>>728346707
>Walking, cutscenes and QTE's are not gameplay, kid.
Walking through dungeons is gameplay. And you're right that cutscenes aren't gameplay. E33 is still 90% gameplay. You have no idea what you're talking about. You've imagined a version of the game that doesn't really exist.
>>
>>728346779
Oh boy, you're like that one retard who argued that God of Soi Rangarok has more "gameplay density" than all of the actual GoW games...
>>
>>728346881
No, I'm not like that at all because I'm correct. E33 is 90% gameplay. You ready to explain why the industry supposedly planted a game that gives consumers higher standards with more expectation for less money than what the industry currently offers?
>>
>>728346702
cope kike
>>
>>728346996
No, it's not. Walking, going through menus and doing QTEs is not gameplay.
>you ready to explain why the industry jerked off a product made by ex-ubisoft employees who got funded by NetEase?
Gee, I dunno.
>>
>>728347137
Menuing to build your characters is, in fact, gameplay in an RPG. It's the central gameplay, actually.
>muh QTEs
So are the RPG mechanics not gameplay or are the action mechanics not gameplay? You can't seem to make up your mind here.
>you ready to explain why the industry jerked off a product made by ex-ubisoft employees who got funded by NetEase?
How does this explain the nonsensical idea that the industry planted a game that gives consumers higher standards and expectations for less money at the same time they're trying to shift to an $80 price point?

FF16 was better but Sony didn’t pay enough to promote it.

Final Fantasy 7 was the 4th biggest selling game of its generation. (Behind Pokemon , Mario 64 and Gran Turismo)

E33 isnt even the 4th best selling game of this year.

Another thread for my seethe backlog
>>
>>728330585
Italians are way more annoying with their ugly brown skin and Hebrew noses trying to food police the world over dishes that have barely existed for 50 years in their current form and every region does distention differently. The "approved" meme shit is one of the worst offenders, making zoomers think you need Italian acceptance as if the opinions of Italians mattered to anyone. They know fuck-all about anything least of all food, but they have no other cultural relevance or future so they inflate the importance of flatbread with cheese and tomato to an embarrassing degree and dickride each other about it to convince themselves that they are in fact not a country of low IQ losers and corrupt pederasts (but they are).

Sir niche gamer lord KCD1 outsold E33 about 2:1 over the same time respective windows. And KCD2 was about 1:1.

I've made fun of this game enough but sincerely did anyone else laugh out loud really hard at both death scenes

Can you imagine the like 12 or 13 year olds watching that, being deeply emotionally moved and then coming on four channel to reflexively defend the game in this thread lol

They planted this studio because people were complaining about gaming being dead for way too long, so they wanted to make people think that a "small underdog indie studio" can suddenly appear and instantly make a smash hit masterpiece that gets all the awards. Pretty simple manipulation.

>>728348089

Here's a random tidbit of trivia:
Hololive, the most shilling company in the Vtubing world keeps afloat thanks to having their talents play games for companies.
Despite this being an "indie" game (E33 CEO's words not mine) that came out of nowhere, suddenly all the talents started playing it day 1 of it coming out despite half of them not even knowing which side to hold a controller.
What a weird coincidence huh?
No way that trust fun baby could have botted stuff and bought reviews right?
>>
>>728347387
You're right, FF7 sold gangbusters, but the comparison was never about raw sales numbers-it's about cultural footprint. FF7 reshaped the genre and brought JRPGs into the mainstream. E33 isn’t doing that commercially, but you can’t deny it's captured a weird lightning-in-a-bottle moment where every clique across gaming is talking about it non-stop. Doesn’t matter if it ranks 4th or 40th in sales-it’s the game's outsized influence and discourse saturation that got it labeled “this gen’s FF7,” not any spreadsheet metric.

jrpgs are fun. the bestvgenre of games when done well.

jrpgs fans liked it as they would any other game
jrpg, rpg, japan, anime, etc hating idiots suddenly gave it a trybbecause its western and features bearded men and has a brownish tint to the aesthetic and realized jrpgs are actually great, although in their naive minds theybtell themselves this one is revolutionary when its really par for the course

thats all it comes down to

Presentation is all that matters nowadays so once people saw that it didn't look like those "yucky Japanese games" everyone was in.
BG3 was the same on a smaller scale
>>
E33 is a game with a lot of SOVL. When you play it, you just know that the people who did it had a lot of fun and passion while doing it, you can feel it.
Maybe that's also why brown people, jeets and bugs don't like this game that much, they lack sovl. E33 is inherently a white man's game.

It's like League of Legends or World of Warcraft. They just took a genre, dumbed it down and marketed it well. It's nothing new.
>>
>>728354417
I can't take this game seriously because it looks like absolute ass, it gives me unfinished demo vibes, not polished at all, and characters looks like moded versions. Nothing charming about it, ten years ago it would've been an average release, quickly forgotten.
