I want to enjoy some turn-based combat with parrying but keep getting interrupted by some hour long cutscenes and long stretches of pointless walking witho zero explorationEnded up dropping shortly after act 2
just play fortnite
>>731030780drop yourself down a bridge, faggot
>oh nooo a cutsceneee nooooo it's at least 2 times longer than the tiktok videos I watch oh man I'm starting to sweat I can't concentrate noooofucking tiktok generation, I hope cancer gets you all.
>>731030972You are genuinely retarded
>>731030780Based. Slop 33 is dogshit
>dropped it after act 2Good, you missed all the bollywood storytelling
>>731031000eat shit and die.
>>731030780Doesn't really apply to this game. The prologue is very story/dialogue heavy but after that its just a regular game with cutscenes.
>>731030780So people love it for the same reason they hated MGS4? A lot has changed in 20 years..
>>731030780e33 is a shit game
>>731031095I fucking WISH E33 ended with a dance number and all the characters living happily ever after.
>>731031113for a french rpg the cut scenes are carefully crafted to deliver info and character progression in a pacey mannertheres no scene that has anime game dialogue filler
Its not a movie game though its like 1 hour of dungeon crawling then a 5 minute cutscene on loop, OP didnt play past the first area
>>731030780You should really pay attention to the story, it's unironically one of the few pieces of media in the last decade that is on par with the world's greatest literature
>>731030780>Ended up dropping shortly after act 2BUT THERE'S NOTHING BUT COMBAT LEFT AFTER ACT 2. YOU GET BOSS FIGHTS AND BOSS FIGHTS AND ONLY CUTSCENES IF YOU FINISH MAIN QUEST OR FINISH MAELLE/LUNE/MONOCO QUESTS
>>731031312You are the worst
>>731030780>after act 2you can go to the endless tower, that's all combat
>>731031535he can go to endless tower, to reacher, to clea's workshop, to flying manor and Renoir draft....I'm starting to think OP is trolling
>>731030780Americans cant appreciate art
>>731031693>european "art"
>>731031693reminder that americans are just burger-eating monkeys
>>731031782I wish there was incest in E33
>>731031693I'm not american, I come from a country of high art
It's an AI game though
>hour-long cutscenesAre you in Act 3 already?
>>731031312Alright, its good but its not *that* fucking revolutionary. Its basically just an isekai with extra steps.
>>731030780congrats, you fell for the most massive viral marketing shilling campaign to ever hit this board and the internet as a whole, you are officially cattle for ever buying it or even pirating it, but especially for ever playing it
>>731031312>on par with the world's greatest literatureIt's a jrpg slop story entirely equivalent to final fantasy games where you are actually not a real person you are a holgram living in someone else's dream or actually you are a doll living in a doll house at the end of time or some nonsense and none of it ultimately means anything.
>>731031151this place is /v/eddit - (((viral marketing))) general now
>>731030780>hour long cutscenesThere are like 2 minutes at most. What the fuck are you smoking?
>>731032236why can't people comprehend that from different characters perspective it's not the same worldfor Painters it's fake worldbut for painted creatures inside it, it's their real worldIt's not a fake world just because a demiurge created that pocket dimension and populated it with sentient beings and can erase it at will
>>731032435because that's not how painting things works
>>731032435Because that's stupid as soon as you make the setting in some way not real or a multiverse it feels like there is sort of no stakes, also it's a cliche at this point and not interesting at all
>>731031478>>731032132>>731032236You can downplay it all you want but look at the discussions surrounding it, name a single book or movie that has brought the same level of in depth discussion as E33 where people are analyzing and breaking down how the structure and characters contribute to themes and the final philosophical question at the end. It's literally improving media comprehension, something that only assigning textbooks and worksheets in school would do. They somehow found a way to improve literacy all while presenting an entertaining experience. It's literally a masterpiece of creation
>>731032743>it feels like there is sort of no stakesdo Lune and Sciel deserve to live?
>>731031312>it's unironically one of the few pieces of media in the last decade that is on par with streaming's greatest animeFtfy
>>731032928Literally every popular video game from the last 30 years at this point, there is a million video essays on all of them. There is more discussion about dark souls lore which is just intentionally obtuse nonsense.Every zoomgroid thinks everything is 2deep4u
>>731032928by discussion you mean pictures of the asian girl's feet?
>>731033125a lot of great art is about women feet

>wherein the French plaster eyecandy over Japanese analysis of escapism and pretend it's the greatest thing everI'd be ok with it if it wasn't so clearly a skin deep ripoff made by some guy who played (and only played) persona 5 royal and somehow touted as the greatest plot since planescape.It doesn't integrate gameplay into executing the plot like nier automata/girls frontline does.It doesn't explore any new thoughts about escapism, the entire thing doesn't cover anything beyond what was covered by ffta (on the account of its source material, p5/r only making escapism the theme of futaba's dungeon and the maruki expansion content - p5 was clearly about rebellion)It doesn't even explore the inevitability of death despite being handed every opportunityIt's just another game gaining undue praise due to being the first exposure for normies into well established works in the medium (see: hollow knight - making it ironic that silksong won the people's awards under steam for goty over it)
>>731033649>Writer attacks painter by belittling their work as plasteringBASED BASED BASED BASED BASEDKILL ALL PAINTFAGSTRIPLE THE AI INVESTMENTS NOW
>animefags when they play a good game for the first time in their lives (they're confused and can't comprehend the concept)
>>731034994>Frenchmen when the world does not revolve around France>Parisian when the world does not revolve around paris
>>731033649This whole post is pure cope
>hour long cutscenesMan, when I started playing ffxvi I just couldn't but think that I had spent 4 full hours just looking at a damn screen with barely 50 minutes of actually doing something if even that much.
>>731035423>Goty awards won by e33: still 0
>>731033649TRVTH NVKE
>>731035531E33 has more than 300 Goty awards. Are shills really that retarded?
>>731031312I liked E33, but this post is absolute cringe
>>731035679Not any that mattered. You even lost one that you paid for.You want to know why I brought up goty awards? Because I know you fuckers only care about prestige and money.I know talentless hacks that can't create original thoughts only ever work for vanity, that e33 was never made out of a need to self express or reflect one's messaging (where the fuck is France's neet epidemic that would fuel a work exploring escapism? Nowhere, because the epidemic is from Japan and you're all the game developer equivalents of fake ass niggas wishing they were born in the project's so they can rap about drugs guns and money), that any criticism of the game itself isn't offensive to you due to actual criticism of the game but that it may take away from public recognition, and that deep down inside, you already know all this and don't really care so long as the show can keep going.So I'm going to ignore your little ripoff now, and go back to playing a real game, called deadlock.Toodles, faggot.
>>731036143This zoomer believes Japan invented idea of escapism and only country that has problem with it? Actual boss baby situation
>>731032236On the tier of greatest books, it doesn't even come close. Its Harry potter tier. When it comes to video games, its not jrpg slop. Its a lot more grounded and cohesive than 95% of jrpgs.
>>731032928You are in neither hobby space of movies or books. Theres more discussion on the garbage of stranger things than there was of e33.
you can play ff7 rebirth, which is still the better game in pretty much every department
>>731032236>one of it ultimately means anything.Wrong; it means everything, and the game spends the entire time convincing you of that. >>731032743>it feels like there is sort of no stakesIf you are a soulless bugman, sure.>>731032680Mindfucked by materialism>>731036479>>731033108stop pretending like you don't understand. E33 discussion is centered around the characters' motivations and ethical quandaries. All other games and 99% of TV show discussions are related to plot holes.
