>>731143904>talking shit about dungeon crawlersFAAAAAG
>>731143553>>731143874this post makes it sound like some boundary pushing eroge, not some generic dungeon crawler that wouldnt be out of place seen at Wal-mart
>>731144103>not some generic dungeon crawler that wouldnt be out of place seen at Wal-martCan you name any from current year?
>>731144103Apparently it was too risque to be released physically in the west, so you actually wouldn't see this at WalMart, unless they had the PC version in stock, which is unlikely.
>>731144103If only you knew how bad things really are.
What's the worst you see in this game that it caused such issues?
>>731143553Is the game even worth all this drama? Thought it was just a generic Vita era dungeon crawler with waifu bait.
>originally developed by Compile Heart and Idea Factorylmao who gives a fuck about the garbage they make.
>>731143553>uncutHow to trigger americans on 5 letters
>>731143553>uniquely branded USB driveMeh. I understand why they choose that format, but USB drives are the worst format for long-term data preservation by far. They were not built for that purpose.
>>731144357Mary Skelter is one of the best dungeon crawlers. Though I've no idea if this was the same team.
>>731144305A anime girl touching mini game, that's how far we've fallen where something like this is almost impossible to release in the west without jumping through over 9000 hoops.
>>731144430So just save it on your drive(s) or burn it to a disk.
>>731143553>usb stickFucking gay as hell. Anyway buying a physical version of a modern pc game is going to have a cd drive still. If you can manufacture a music cd, you can manufacture a disc with the game on it.
>>731144440It's decent. Nowhere near one of the best.
>>731144440This was developed between MS1 and 2, so probably a testing bench for the improvements the latter had.
>>731143553>dungeon crawlerI sleep and skip
>>731144305Touching minigame + anime woman = young female bias.https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/210927-tokyo-clanpool/80907170There was a kind of minigame to it that let you acquire certain passives, so that's a plus.>>731144319Story/character wise it's just okay.The exploration does have a lot tools like wall breaking, dashing, and float, so almost on par with Labyrinth of Refrain/Galleria.I found the difficulty pretty easy even on highest (besides a small spike in post-game), once you figure out the Gadgettia system and how to merge toward higher numbers:>start with Rank 1s,>merge them for Rank 3s (odd)>then merge those with Rank 2 (evens) to get Rank 4 (next even)>repeating the odd+odd > odd+even process to 20Each Lv. has a new skill and you're primarily going to keep the R10 (Element) Enhance buff + damage skills.>Wind: R9 Death Wind, R12 Woodstorm, R20 God Breath>Fire: R12 Firestorm, R13 Crimson Tsunami, R16 Hellnado>Earth: R12 Earthstorm, R16 Dragon's Fang, R20 World Collapse>Metal: R12 Goldstorm, R16 Hundred Fist, R20 Golden Twilight>Water: R9 Icenado, R12 Aquastorm, R13 Sword Dance
>>731145442Merge what, gear? Does this game have set party members or generic units like in Labyrinth?
>>731143553oh wow. downloading the patch as i type this. didnt expect it to get out mere days after eas said that it needed more time. even though it was scummy of eas to handle the whole thing in this manner, i do forgive them after going the extra mile, working with the nips, and giving us the patch.
>>731143874So much for those conspiracy theories about them being liars for delaying the patch. Turns out they just wanted to tie it in with a physical PC release in the end.
>>731145608Set party members (the 4 poster-girls) and you can change their class to alter their stats/appearance, while they can equip 5 Gadgettia (think generic faeiries) to bolster their stats and expand their skill repertoire. There's a big emphasis on elemental advantage, so you just try to minmax with 1 all-target Gadgettia + 4 single-target multi-hit ones per element, as combo count for higher damage adds up.You can also power up quickly due to fusion EXP scaling high.>8 Lv. 25 Rank 1s (20.1k EXP, Ch. 3) > 4 Lv. 40 Rank 3s (316k) > 2 Lv. 64 Rank 5s (1.366 mil) > 1 Lv. 99 Rank 7 [Choose Skills].Rarer equipment can also have their own skills, and I used an early weapon the entire game because it had a good multi-hit.
>>731146103So I guess it's pretty similar to Mary Skelter huh, might check this out someday. Shame there's no Steam version, I only buy on Steam.
>>731143553This shit looks mid af
>>731145948This is what was supposed to be their switch collectors edition.
>>731144103By the standards of this day and age, it is boundary pushing. It couldn't be sold in Steam, it couldn't be sold on the western Nintendo e-shops, it couldn't be sold uncut on the Asian Nintendo e-shops, and it couldn't be sold uncut on GOG. This shit used to be the norm on the fucking Vita and every other Compile Heart game used to have a minigame like this, but every single fucking platform holder has gone off the deep end since 2018 and now we're left with this situation where an M-rated Vita game has to resort to this just to release. ESRB and PEGI are totally useless these days.
Downloading the game and patch right now. I'll test it out on my 'eck.
>>731143553>Compile Heart and Idea FactoryPffffffahahahahaha
>>731143553How are the sex scenes?
why is this faggot spamming?
>>731146936Compile Heart Derangement Syndrome
>>731146351It is virtually identical to Mary Skelter's Purge minigame. Which, mind you, is right fucking there on Steam and Nintendo's shops uncut. But we're supposed to act like this shit is somehow impossible for these multibillion dollar companies to host now. God, I just want SOMEONE or SOMETHING to come along and kick these companies in the mouth already.>>731146898There are no sex scenes. This is just a PG Vita game that every single platform decided out of nowhere was too risque for modern standards (despite already hosting and selling games with the exact same content). Yes, we've fallen this far.
>>731147080To be fair, vita was peak based ecchi nipkino. Of course they cant give us that in 2025+1 unless its gacha. And even then its quite difficult. Not excusing the wave of censorship, mind you. Just wanted to point out that the vita has an insane otaku games line-up. Recently got myself the Valkyria Chronicles 2 and 3 games with HD patches and shit is tight af unc's.
>Yes, we've fallen this far.Dude, it's just a weeb game lmao, it's not that serious.
It's gaming time
>>731143553>Tokyo Clanpool Uncut Edition Confirmed for PCIt was "confirmed for PC" when the game fucking launched. It just turned out to oops actually not be uncut when it came out, so I'm not buying until I actually have the patch.>>731143874Well alright then. Does anybody know if this patch works with the GOG version? Looks like it's currently on sale too, so is the "deluxe version" with soundtrack and artbook worth the extra $8?>>731144305It's just a touching minigame. You tap on girl to make her squeak, that sort of thing. The real problem was that the game was advertised as being uncensored, was stated as being uncensored on Twitter when released, and is still being listed as uncensored... despite clearly removing content.If they'd just said "We're releasing Tokyo Clanpool, we took out the shitty minigame, but everything else is released." then it wouldn't be a problem from me. It's the fact that they're pretending to give the full game while cutting content that's the problem. Just be honest with what you're selling. I'm not giving money to people to lie to me.>>731146351>Shame there's no Steam versionIt was kicked off Steam before the game could release, most likely due to the touching minigame. Which just makes it all the more ridiculous when it came out on GOG, with "all the content available"... and the minigame had been silently cut.
>>731147363>Valkyria Chronicles 2 and 3 games with HD patchesWhat packs did you use?
>>731146634that looks so lame, there are free gachas you can play with more daring stuff than this
>Patch lowers the movie sizeBetter compression or did they remove something?
>>731147405>it's not that serious.wrong
>>731147695Tell that to Nintendo and Steam, who are somehow more censorious than fucking Google and Apple now.
>>731147493>Does anybody know if this patch works with the GOG version?Read the OP, retard-kun.
>>731147773This game was made by 40 year old Japanese salarymen to fleece incels, it's not high art. There were tons of these on the Vita.
>>731147939>There were tons of these on the Vita.And I want more of them on current systems.
>>731147550My bad, it is actually on the ppsspp emu. just check the forums.ppsspp.org site, theres only one HD pack for each game. You can play them on your physical vita if you got it hacked.
>>731148136Cool don't forget the 60fps patches. I'm going to emulate it on my deck.
>>731147493>It was kicked off Steam before the game could release, most likely due to the touching minigameSteam and western Nintendo banned it even without the minigame. And the minigame is 90% of the erotic content.
>>731147939This game was made by 40 year old Japanese salarymenBut Compile Heart is a mostly women company...
looks like a mess
>>731148382look at them go!
>>731148382It's called SOVL
>>731145948the patch was promised a week after launch anonthat was almost a goddamn year ago
>>731146634>it couldn't be sold uncut on the Asian Nintendo e-shops,Why did picrel have zero issues then?
>>731148790Well its out now, so now what?
>>731148842No touching minigame. Every platform holder spergs out about that now. It was one of the very first things Sony went after, and the others just copied their example.
>>731147806>>731148270>Nintendo*NoAAnd that was before gay bowser got the boot and got replaced by a japanese man mind you.
>>731149016?
>>731148872feels too little too lateand after finding out CH is now a chink company it's hard to care for their slop anymore
This is a victory against censorship, y'all need to buy the game now to send a message
>>731147754The censored release movie had an ass crack censored
>>731149206but i still have so many dungeon crawlers on my backlog....one of which is mary skelter so i think i am covered on ecchi dungeon crawlers for now.
>>731149206chinks are protected against kike payment processor censorship in the first place exactly because they want chinks or gooks to replace jp media anonsame reason why immediately after the censorship spree visa partnered with hoyoslop
>>731149814>hoyoslopThe shit that gets censored all the time?
>>731150146How can safehorny slop that can't even show pantyshots be censored?
>>731149117Anon please, you really think that schizo really cares?Hint, is not about censorship or anything.
>>731149814>Hoyo partnered with Visa, specifically HI3rd the last patch>Last patch was this bitchPottery
>>731150207>he doesn't know
>>731143553>physical version already sold outshamei was tempted in getting one
>>731149117are you really that retarded?
>>731151593Preorders don't open until the 22nd.
>>731151593Dammit, I should have pulled the trigger faster.
>>731143553No Steam no buy
>>731151065The dog isn't a loli. And wasn't the last patch besides.
>>731151784Tell Valve to stop being dickless cucks then.
>>731151894Point stands, their partnership started with this bitch, and DFC is still considered loli to these retards.
>sell censored version>sell uncensored version one year later
>>731152045You'd have more of a point if hoyo did anything spicy outside of the occasional GGZ design. Even 3rd is tame as fuck these days, although not to the level of their other more normalfag centric gacha.
>>731143874>off site
>>731144103yes that's the state we are at right now
>>731152436Ask GOG why they refused it. Same storefront that hosts Rance and Evenicle 2, by the way.
>>731144103The Overton Window for what can be published on major platforms has been shrinking at a rapid pace ever since Playstation banned Omega Labyrinth Z in 2018.
>>731151784valve is a kike yacht company, why would you buy games there?
>>731152321>Even 3rd is tame as fuck these daysthe posted flatty was the most recent banner they did when the partnership happened anoncharacter which visa themselves shilled, when jp games get the banhammer for muh child porn for way lessthen again it doesnt surprise me the CHnigger is defending chinkslop and payment processors
>>731152643Weird considering they host Sengoku Rance, which has an actual uncensored loli rape scene.
>>731144103>Wal-martFunny you say that, because this was banned from Steam just a couple years ago. Yes, it was the already censored for the west by Fatlus version as well. It had to take refuge on some backwater SEA storefront called Johren that mainly sells gachashit and is loaded with DRM. This whole experience has completely disillusioned and made me feel that platform holders should not be given this much rein in what they are allowed to choose to host. Not when your livelihood as a dev/publisher is so dependent on whether or not Steam/etc. takes your game and not anything else related to the game itself.
>>731152187the off site patch is free, anon
>>731153407is the physical upgrade free?
>>731151784Fun fact, DLsite made their own payment processor.Steam not only didn't even try despite already having prepaid gift card systems in place for it, but would rather call it a day adding the "we will remove anything that offends our payment processor overlords btw" rule to their ToS and buying another yacht fleet.
>>731153438The physical is marketed to collectors. It's $50.
>>731153438You can burn your GOG install to a disc, yes.
>>731153524that's exactly what I mean
>>731153581sure as fuck doesn't sound like it here >>731152187
>>731153438Yes, there's nothing stopping you from taking the GOG version you own and just burning it to whatever form of physical media you like.You can burn it to 1000 floppy disks if you want.
>>731153581It's probably meant for people who didn't already buy the game from GOG. If you did and don't want to drop $50 on a collector's edition, you may as well just get the patch.
>>731153707I'm not sure if you're autistic but that is what it sounds like there
>>731152321>3rd is tame as fuck these daysSadly true.
>>731153292TAME AS FUCK
>>731153747You're just retarded and can't communicate properly. You seem confused on how this censorship is being handled on top of that.
>>731153709If I owned the censored collectors edition I would feel pretty shitty now about the version I have. Who wants to own the censored version, when an uncensored version exists now? Kind of feels like they are cashing in on collectors twice.I think they should send buyers of the first version the physical items that they are missing, either for free or for a small fee to cover shipping.
>>731154493>If I owned the censored collectors edition I would feel pretty shitty now about the version I have.Get angry at Nintendo for forcing a Vita game to be censored even in Asia, not at the devs whose hands were tied by Nintendo and Steam's faggotry. The Switch version didn't have to be censored, these guys have a reputation for being cheesecake advocates, it already cleared CERO and ESRB, all Nintendo had to do was not be faggots, which they did a good job of right up until this game released. You can criticize how they handled the situation, but ultimately that situation was forced on them by Nintendo.
>>731154890>You can criticize how they handled the situationyes I can, they handled the situation in an awful way. They purposely didn't mention anything about the censorship before release, letting people pre order without knowing that it was censored. I remember people saying that they would not have pre ordered with that information.
>>731155050As I said, reserve the bulk of your anger for Nintendo. If not for them, there would be no censorship at all and we would have had this game complete in 2024 just like Mugen Souls and Seven Pirates before it. You can no longer trust that games like this will not be meddled with in current year regardless of platform, the best you can do as a consumer is not preorder and reserve judgment until you know for sure it's not fucked with.
>>731154890>>731155410So far other ecchi games have released just fine on the jp eshop on nintendo, even ones with touching minigames like qureate sloppa.And when TC released on gog after being banned on steam CH and EAS also claimed the nep trilogy had already gotten banned by nintendo japan directly, only to turn around and coincidentally shill their pis5 returnal clone literally a day after.Then it just so happens that a day after said returnal clone ended up being a complete flop they instantly announce the nep trilogy for the jp/asia switch eshop.Then an anon found out being banned by noj was bullshit because a full year prior to this they had already released the nep trilogy on the switch.I can and I am justified in blaming EAS and CH for this, own up your mistakes you fucking morons, a "we panicked and fucking lied but we will try to make things right" instead of trying to cash in by doubling down on the dying NDS market would go a long way.
>>731155503>even ones with touching minigames like qureate sloppa.LolNintendo has been pretty consistent in this regard since 2024. Lewd minigames are sexual harassment now, which we can't have because it's "brand damaging", but you can sure as hell fuck a bear and shoot a baby in the face.
We're living in dire straits when we need uncensor patches for damn ecchi gamesI don't see things getting better anytime soon either
>>731155410>>731155689>>As I said, reserve the bulk of your anger for Nintendoi dont think i will get gaslit into that mr EAS employeei also dont think you understand your situation, did you believe you are somehow irreplaceable and those filthy otaku would grovel at your feet for the slightest crusty ported flat chest?no nigga, you sound like you have to learn the hard way this is a cutthroat market and people will just go play ecchi games from other devs if you refuse to properly release your sloppa ports, let alone make new games
>>731155503What is the purpose of you constantly doing this fucking defense 24/7. Are you employed by NoJ?
>>731155689And there it is, the chink heart nigger goes mask off at the slightest provocation.Hope you're getting paid for this by the way, because the alternative is somehow even more pathetic.
>>731147428Can you spoonfeed me on where to find the game...?
>>731155770>ecchi games from other devsrumao, the market is basically dead, it's all gacha now and maybe one toned down pitiful game per year
>>731155783>please stop calling out EAS' grifting already! :(lmfao
>>731155853>>731155689Why is it so hard for you faggots to grasp that just like Steam Nintendo is inconsistent with their policies?
>>731155732Not even new games at that too.
>>731144103That's how bad the woketranny censorship regime is right now that a super fucking tame, innocuous title like this gets targeted by the danger haired protection racket.
>>731155410Nintendo and all the corpos forcing censorship doesn't mean they EAS can't get criticized for not being transparent. We can all agree that they should have discloed the information before release.>the best you can do as a consumer is not preorder and reserve judgment until you know for sure it's not fucked withThis applies to the normal version, but imagine you want the collectors edition. You didn't have the option to wait, it was buy now or don't. Well, I guess you could buy it from aftermarket.This probem would not exist if they just didn't without the information that the game was censored. Fuck the people who supported them for trusting them, I guess.
>>731155914because nintendo is not inconsistent, NoJ consistently allows the games, NoA is consistently a kike tool, and games that just so happen to have a fuckton of chink staff of get by chink publishers have switch jp censorship while other devs dont have those issues
>>731155770>ecchi games from other devsWhat other devs?Compile Heart no longer make ecchi games.Inti Creates discontinued Gal*GunAquaplus has been sold off twiceSenran Kagura is still dead outside of gacha which may as well not countShade went underImageepoch went underGUST went full safe horny with Ryza and doubled down on it with Yumia. All their other anime franchises like Blue Reflection, Nights of Azure or God forbid Ar Tonelico are deadD3P can't even do pantyshots any moreFatlus won't touch ecchi under SEGAyEven qureate had to give up on lolis and flatties after the Duel Princess fiascoWe got LoveR Kiss, but it got banned from Steam and sold less than a thousand copies on DLSite, so Dragami probably won't bother any more.What's left after that, fucking Turret Girls and DLSite chicken scratch?
>>731155860gog-gamea.to
>>731156431games*
>>731156356there's uhhhh Nitro+ and ahhhhh
>>731156356i-is it actually THAT grim?..
>>731156042You'll probably have to give up on CEs, then. I wanted that LoveR Kiss Endless Memories super special Switch CE they were selling through Dragami's website, but I'm not about to drop $100+ just to find out Nintendo censored it.
>>731155410regardless of how you feel about nintendo theres no excuse to rugpull your most loyal PC audienceeveryone buys on steam and numbers show people willing to buy PC games outside of steam in the west is a vanishingly small minority, one that largely either does it for the cause or because steam banned another game they wanted againyou could have said you were being attacked by payment kikes like the brown dust 2 devs and people would have been in your sideyou could have been honest about the censorship and said you were doing it out of desperation to get some money in these trying timesyou could have at least released the uncensor patch you said you were putting out "soon" a week after release for at most a month wait, not nearly a fucking yearbut no, you decided to try claim a store hosting literal uncensored loli rape was censoring you and doubled down by claiming another storefront your games already released fine on were actually blacklisting you, and then you tripled down by waiting a year to put out the uncensor patch, THEN you quadruple down by selling another limited run of the game, that may not even be actually uncensored and need the patch anyway because trust on you is that lowyou basically did EVERYTHING wrong
>>731156356We got rid of all the DEI and wokeness in the industry over the last year and we still can't have any of this back? What fucking gives?!
>>731156356this fearmongering doesnt work when most of the list are snoys that would rather die with the ship and im enjoying majogami which released a few months ago, a game that steam also tried to rugpull but released with zero issues even on NOA by the wayif you wanted recs you would ask like a normal person instead of a pissy redditor baiting to get corrected
>>731156551Yes it is. There are likely many others I didn't mention. To be an non-gacha otaku gamer in current year is to wander the desert in search of water forever. That entire pseudo-genre basically died when Sony banned OLZ. Now we have to fight tooth and nail just for fragments of what was.
>>731156715You would need a JP nintendo eshop account to get the games that are coming out but we both know you are not willing to do that.
>>731156431>>731156491thanks!
>>731156676I ended up buying the original vita CE for only 25€ on mercari instead
>>731156707Don't forget about straight up lying about neps and derqz being banned by nintendo japan to shill the returnal clone only to release said games on nintendo the day after their returnal clone flopped.
>>731156945If you know the runes, good for you, because you can at least enjoy all of what's been released instead of being stuck hoping for a modern port that will either never come or be censored if it does. We'll probably never get Castle Panzers now, for example. And God knows no one's making anything new after 2020 except maybe qureate.
Since I never saw a thread about ithttps://www.gematsu.com/2026/01/compile-heart-to-announce-new-school-rpg-by-megami-tensei-co-creator-kouji-okada-on-january-29>Make Vita-style Persona clone in 2026>Don't even use the classic CH artstyle (Mary Skelter/DERQ artist would have fit)>Hire some russian who plagiarizes and makes "art" that looks like AI insteadThis company needs to just shut down
>compile shart Filthy chink riddled company
>>731156715You never got rid of it at all. They've entrenched themselves in the industry and it'd take basically scorched earth tactics to dislodge them.>>731157212It is the single most transparent "we want the Persona audience" game basically ever. It won't even have any identity of its own because they're slapping a bunch of industry names on it instead of trying to make something that would resemble "Persona if made by the Neptunia guys".
>>731157212man, the skelter artist is wasted on these chink grifters
>>731143553Is this yuri?
>>731157212Can't wait to see his character designs for the game.
>>731157414Old persona is different from nupersona at least. And old persona has been dead for so long it might as well be it's own thing at this point. Reminder that Cozy bounced after DDS and didn't work on persona 3.
One unnecessary Rom image for the thread.
>>731157212Why is CH suddenly going full edgelord after Code Z?
>>731143553>We have now officially confirmed the cancellation of Tokyo Clanpool‘s release for Nintendo Switch in North America and EuropeTake note that this was after they said they were willing to make further alterations to what was already needed just for an Asian release. Evidently Nintendo told them to basically change the whole art style of the game, as they've done with others. This is what you're up against now as a small publisher of anime cheesecake games. Switch is currently the largest console platform globally (much like PS4 was at the end of its gen) so that's a major hit, and Nintendo likely assumes just like Sony did that they are too big to ignore so publishers will just cuck to them. And since most of them already did to Sony...
>>731158968>>731155503
>>731158871>suddenlyThey have made edgy shit since around trillion.
>>731143553>UncutSHUT IT DOWN
>>731158871It's the only path they can take now aside from the inoffensive family-friendly path since anime cheesecake (their main forte) has become virtually impossible to release to any market because of platform holders aggressively persecuting it.
>>731143553I expected the thread to be titled [SAD NEWS]
I wanted to play this game for a while. I have a hacked Vita but I'm an EOP. I'll give it a try.
>>731158871Well, it's a fact that the new game is going to be *at least* rated CERO C, the trailer with that vibe, possible bloodstains and screams of terror/fear at the end clearly communicate ''hey, this game is going to be more violent and darker than other games we have published/developed'', as I said, it's a fact that it's going to be rated CERO C at least and it may be rated D or even Z of course, but considering that the first 2 Death end re;Quest games, the 3 Mary Skelter games and Dragon Star Varnir were all released several years ago, I don't think that it's correct saying that Compile Heart ''is going full edgelord'' now, dark and violent Compile Heart games are nothing new.
>>731159150It's good news because now you can finally get an uncensored version of the game. It's sad news because the fact that they had to do this much just for one game means they probably won't do anything else like it.
>>731158968Majogami, another game steam tried to rugpull, released without issues in both NoJ and even NoA.Stuff like maid of the dead despite having a literal jackoff touch minigame also released on the switch.Even from EAS themselves, the nep trilogy that they claimed was blacklisted by nintendo japan released on the switch TWICE, DERQZ also released without issues.Tell your higher ups at EAS that a shill campaign trying to get NDSfags to buy anything is only going to nuke your credibility further when both inti and aquaplus straight up said nintendo is the only safe garden left for ecchi games and maybe japanese games as a whole.
>>731157909Damn his new artstyle is meh
>>731147493>Well alright then. Does anybody know if this patch works with the GOG version?It does, even a direct reference to it in the readme of the patch.
I'm starting to believe Mary's steam review GACHA system is real.If you're unlucky you can roll Mary or other basedtranny reviewer who will block your game.
>>731143553I wish that they would sell the Uncut version on DLsite or JAST too. It's nice to get more and more of my weaboo stuff there as most of the h and ecchi stuff are on those two spots. But if GOG is the only place to get the uncensored version in English I can deal with it.
>>731143553The idea of a game coming in a special usb is a very great step. It honestly should be the future of PC games. You could get shit like this to trend with cool unique USBs for each game and it would sell very well. This would completely btfo bridge trolls like steam and epic. I feel like laptops removing disc drives made companies give up on PC physical. Hopefully more will realize this second option that's not likely to go anywhere anytime soon.
>>731159892I remember maggot baits had an edition that came like that too. Was pretty neat.
>>731159892But is that really true? Steam took off simply because most people liked it more than physical. I guess it would be cool if more companies did this, but I highly doubt that we’ll see a resurgence in PC physical.
>>731159413>the nep trilogy that they claimed was blacklisted by nintendo japanstill spreading this lie?
>>731160507Steam took off because it was the only digital store at the time and valve forced the steam install even on physical copies of half life.From there it was a mix of "may as well use it" and over a decade of brownoids shilling steam due to feeling like richfags over buying shovelware for peanuts on steam sales.
>>731160687you dont get to sweep under the rug something that got used to fearmonger on switch/jrpg threads for 3 months straight nigga
>>731144103things have become so shitty that a fucking VITA game was banned from SteamIt is so over (or would be if I didn't prefer old games)
>>731155503>Hundred Line >Tokyo Clanpool >Yuuna in the Hotspring >Maid of the Dead>Merry Bunny Garden You faggots are such liars holyshit
>>731160759Used what? Shit you made up? If it was so prominently used then surely you can present the statement, right?
>>731160507People don't care as long as they can get the game. If they are too lazy to go to the Walmart or Target they can get it off Amazon or the company website. I'm not sure this would even necessitate raising prices that much as USBs are pretty cheap.
>>731160885>not a single loligeMan, at least use shit like lolique or BS2 as an example
>>731160702>it was the only digital store at the time Well that’s exactly what I’m talking about. Physical media (not just games) has been phased out largely because it’s not as convenient as digital. Maybe it would be nice if Valve’s philosophy was closer to GOG’s, but the bottom line is that people just don’t like physical anymore. It’s not even a cultural thing that came about from Valve’s dominance, people just generally prefer convenience.
>>731160885>>>Maid of the DeadIt's on the switch, and doesn't have the black voids to cover panties that people claimed it did.
Even if NCL wasn't censoring third party games (lol) they still gave NoA the approval to have ridiculous guidelines in west
>>731161036>People don't care as long as they can get the gameRight, but that’s exactly why physical died.>but in this case, we can only get the game physicallyBut it’s just one niche game. If Steam actually went on a banning spree against popular games, something might happen, but it would probably just mean another online digital marketplace coming to power.
>>731161143Why is the touching aspects missing from the nintendo switch version? :)
>>731143553>>731143874>needing an offsite patch for something that doesn't even have sex
>>731161143What about voices in the touching minigame? Heard those were gone in Switch
>>731156107Nintendo also has a bunch of Chinese people working for them. The fuck are you getting at?
>>731143553i honestly don't think people care about this garbage game.
>>731156807Majogami is not an ecchi game.
>>731161343>Picture It is because psychos wrestled and stole control of nearly everything around 2018. They changed compliance into something completely vindictive, the period from 2018-2023 will very likely be thought of as some global power grab. No longer were they satisfied with everything following the rules in their own happy places, now everything had to comply with the ideology specifically or perish. Further proof of these guys' psychotic nature is that now that they are finally being challenged, there is a spike in terrorist attacks and sabotaging. They'll try to take down as much with them.
>>731161335they aren't tho
>>731161924>around 2018That's not when occupy wall street happened.
>>731143553Cool. Now I don't care now, got it on GOG.
>>731162149Yes they are, I have the game. Try again
>>731162228The patch works with the GOG version.
>>731143553This may just be a hunch, but looking at the difference in CE content here, Nintendo may have meddled there too just like Sony did with Tsukihime R. This is the Switch CE...
>>731162484...this is the new PC CE.
>>731162190That was probably when the stuff started becoming pretty obvious. But it felt like a switch was flipped around 2018 and suddenly almost nothing got past the ideology. I think a good thing to illustrate this is the difference between Avengers Infinity War and Endgame. Two movies part of the same story a year apart. Yet the second has so much bullshit added in and somehow manages to be less satisfying to watch than the predecessor which ends in a convoluted defeat. It is like something convinced them that they had finally taken enough of the institutions to enforce their will on everyone.
>>731162484As much as I hate shitendo right now, nah. The uncensored art is still in the LE
>>731162484>>731162567Snoys gonna snoy and will still hate nintendo long after SIE dies, what else is new.
>>731162567...and this is the original Vita CE. As you can see, the poster is completely different and Natsume in her birthday suit with suds is totally missing in the Switch CE. Perhaps I'm just being paranoid, there's no paper trail like there was with Tsukihime R, but Nintendo may have objected to some LE content as well, resulting in a neutered LE.
>>731162771It is probably just a decision to add it to something being marketed as an uncut edition so it feels extra uncut.
>>731162771If I'm right, this may explain why Compile Heart doesn't do lewd even in their preorder/promo/CE bonuses any more. These companies won't let you have fucking anything because their almighty brand demands everything within ten degrees of separation from them be smashed down, homogenized and sanitized.God I fucking hate nu-Gamindustri.
>Games and hardware cost more >Vidya is getting more and more sanitizedCan someone tell me what the fuck platform holders are thinking with this shit
>>731163332The New Normal™.
>>731163332>American like our games?>So funny find someones to translate it for them, a couple extra yen couldn't hurt
>>731163332Yeah....I've been thinking, why even buy new hardware (Like Switch 2) for censored games? That's no insentive. Somethings got to give. Also I've also noticed as the economy worsens, gacha games are become spicier.
>>731163332They hate you and want to make your life worse, what's not to get? They are stupid of course, because getting rid of the bread and circus worked out so well for them the last time...
>>731163497In gacha's case it's more a return to form as companies realize they can't become the next genshit and thus have no reason to make things normalfag friendly. Before genshin spicy was more the norm, then everyone saw how profitable that was and wanted a piece of the pie. The thing is the normalfags playing genshin only play genshin and no matter how shit it is won't move.
>>731163770Actual almost-h gachas were extremely rare, even more than today, unless you mean the slop that closes down after a month that releases every other week on Nutaku and such sites.
>>731164102There are a lot of people who think it was some ecchi game paradise in the past just because 3 or so companies kept rereleasing the same games for a decade.
>>731156676I own it. It’s fine
>>731164643Yeah, I know that now, but I didn't know that when the preorder window was still open.
>>731163497you can just use the jp switch eshop anon
>>731164746I’m waiting for the switch 2 update for more models in photo mode
>>731161268Honestly those fucking retarded guidelines need to go. I'd like to see these platform holders held hostage at gunpoint till demands are met.
>>731164102No, it just didn't come west. It was abundant in asia.
>>731165354You mean the actual kusoge I mentioned in the latter part of the post?>you wouldn't know these mystical games, they released on another continent
>>731165485So just like the golden era of vidya in the 90s?
>>731165485Anon gacha is gacha. 99% of them are kusoge regardless of content. That was true before genshin, it was true while everyone was trying to copy genshin, and is true today now that we are returning to the norm.
I wish Compile Heart was actually good. Send the artist to a good company and no one would care about their games anymore.
>>731167087He seemingly did leave because they are using some fag with a style that looks like literal AI for their new goysona clone.>>731157212
>>731147080I remember it getting cut from MS2
>>731167181Kei Nanameda just did the art for the massive flop Calamity Angels (launched out of Famitsu's top 30), so he likely hasn't left, but his talent is completely wasted. They have him on the hook for DERQ3 which they claim is this year too.
>>731167671yes but ghost actually released the uncensor patch for MS2 within a week of the game releasing on steam, not nearly a fucking year afterwards
>>731167671From the PC versions, not the Switch version which is completely uncut and available globally, but Nintendo acts like they can't sell you this with near-identical content.
>>731167998its almost like CH released this before they got taken over by antijapan chinks shilling gachaslop around 2021 or something
Rapunzel.
>>731168225
>OMG YES!>I CANT WAIT TO PLAY CHEAP DUNGEON CRAWLER SLOP JUST BECAUSE IT HAS ANIME GIRLS IN ITRetards literally think like this.If you cant sell me on a game other than pointing out i has cute anime girls in it then your game is shit.
>>731168386Cool, go shit up another thread then.
The game isn't even that fun, and this is coming from someone who bought the LE.
>>731168386not enough balls and guns for you, nigger-kun?
>>731168840Dungeon crawlers like this and eetrian isn't my thing, but I got the overpowered DLC anyways and the loli in microbikini so I'll just finish the story lickitysplit.
>>731161143Nta, but what about Bunny Garden? Wasn't that censored too? Just curious, genuinely.
>>731153385Platforms should only ban straight up illegal shit and malware.
>>731170083nobody fucking knows because seemingly nobody owns the game and the bikini schizo spammed AI edited images a few months back about multiple games
>>731143553Better late than never,
>>731170083The original Bunny Garden was not censored (but didn't release in Europe for some reason). The spinoff Merry Bunny Garden was heavily censored on Switch, barred from a western Switch release entirely, and shadowbanned so that it didn't show up on upcoming and recently released game lists.
PS5 version of Tokyo Clanpool never.
So I just did the first dungeon, it took over an hour with the falling through the floor gimmicks and the weird red green laser door gimmicks. The story suxx0rz so bad. It's such a pain to keep going...
>>731172698Why do you think it wasn't localized the first time around?
>>731172919The lame story right?
>>731173192Yes.
>>731172170Coincidentally after this also qureate wiped the credits for their games off the fucking internet entirely, to the point not even sites dedicated to showing credits for their games show anything after duel princess.And it just so happens it happened after people noticed too hard that the games censored on the switch and only the switch or the games being used as "japan went woke, you lost goy!" examples just so happened to have a fuckton of chink involvement in either development or publishing.Make of that what you will.
>>731173272Just making sure, I'm kinda an idiot.
>>731173328You're on 4chan.Always expect retardation attracting retardation.
>>731172919It was a Vita exclusive game that released after the Switch. It barely sold anything in Japan, even.
>>731173292If Japan let chinks infiltrate and ruin 95% of their studios then that says a lot more about "based Japan" than it does about the chinks.
>>731172170Weird situation.
>>731143874patch for what? Is this even Hentai?
>>731174654The original version is the PS Vita version only released in Japan, so, no.
>>731173697japan is alway 10 year behind and we just passed the 2015 wall
>>731174654An erotic minigame that's rated M by the ESRB and which exists in multiple other formats on both Switch and Steam already, but now we have to pretend it's basically illegal because surely daddy Nintendo and Valve know best.
>>731173697>95% of their studios just 2 AAA monkeys that already were trying to be cheap jews and two AA snoy studios dying due to refusing to support the switch properly until it was too latethanks for admitting it is a chink problem though, not like everyone didn't know already tho
>>731174954>surely daddy Nintendo *NoA
>>731143553Isn't it on GoG?Based offsite patch tho, I wonder if the czucks will throw a fit
>>731172698>pitfalls in the first dungeonPicked the fuck up. I love it when dungeons are actual dungeons.
>>731177285Why are you posting Shitgear the failed protagonist in a Tokyo Clanpool thread?
>>731177545Just posting art of another Compile Heart character to bump the thread. Why are you calling her ''Shitgear'' and posting that art of Purple Sister?
>>731177648Because she's an annoying soppy wet dish rag vanilla girl who for some reason we're supposed to treat as protagonist material and make the superior characters job and look bad so she and her cohorts can LARP as leads. Her game is the beginning of the main timeline as well, which means you're "supposed" to play it first and not be able to experience the actual draws of the series. Her fans are loud and numerous and their whining got a superior character exiled from the series because she put Shitgear in her place where she belongs. As a side character who will never be a real protagonist.
>>731178127Oh wow, what a strong response, someone really dislikes Nepgear...well, at least it's true the part of ''her game is the beginnin of the mainline'' considering that for the PS3 games, the first game never happened or something and mk2 is kind of a reboot when it comes to the story/timeline. I like both Neptune and Nepgear a lot, so let's just agree to disagree.
>>731161343R
I just wanted to say conquest end best end, total cpu death nepgear did nothing wrong.
I don't understand why touching inappropriately a girl is a bad thing.
>>731143553>its first person chibigarbage slopwhy dont you guys ever get angry over good games not coming over?
>>731180160In the past you could but its wrong now
>>731146634Criminal Girls was a PSP game
>>731182623It was also censored to hell.
>>731182623Criminal Girls' censorship was NISA's fault. It faced no censorship on the Japanese side and probably wouldn't have faced any on the western side either at the time it released if NISA didn't take it upon themselves, evidenced by Mugen Souls, games that they gave similar treatment, releasing uncensored later under a different publisher. Today, changes that NISA implemented would be mandated directly by platform holders regardless of region or publisher, ensuring the game cannot release at all.
Sorry, I just really love shit like this.
>>731183390Don't kid yourself, it's the same "people" responsible then as it is now. The only difference is they wormed their way higher up on the totem pole because no one threw them back into the delousing chamber where they belong.
>>731183390I use Criminal Girls as the limit on when stuff started to go downhill regarding this. I played the PSP japanese version just fine and my exciment-to-disappointment rollercoaster regarding the Vita version can't be described by words. It's fucking terrible.
>>731156807>>731161583Majogami does have ecchi, some, but not nearly a whole lot and I wouldn't consider it being part of the ecchi genre. I mean the protag and all the bosses are pure sexo, but you cant do normal ecchi game stuff to them.
>>731182623>>731183390>>731185962Is there a patch for both games so you can play it all in english but uncensored?
>>731186320Only for the first Criminal Girls. Dunno if there's a translation patch for CG2
>>731175830>Isn't it on GoG?Yes. The patch is specifically for the GOG version. (finally)>I wonder if the czucks will throw a fitGiven that they're releasing an "uncut" physical PC version which is already patched, I'm assuming that the patch itself won't be the worse part to complain about.
>>731185962NISA had done that before with the Mugen Souls games as well. It was absolutely fucking annoying, yes, but when it was just localizers, it was much easier to deal with and not a completely endemic issue. 2018 was the real cutoff point. When the mandates are coming straight from platform holders with threats to deny the game a release at all, it is no longer something you can just learn Japanese to get around as now not only does it affect any release on said platforms, but the devs themselves have to play around such policies, which usually results in, as you likely know, self-censorship to the point they no longer make such games. Look at Compile Heart, they're barely recognizable as the foremost anime cheesecake guys any more. That didn't happen when it was just the localizers. Furthermore, you could criticize and boycott the localizers more effectively, and sometimes they even backtracked like with IFI, but it's really fucking hard to boycott whole platforms where 90% of games release.
>>731186754I think nearly a decade of this shit has officially instilled into Japanese devs that they were "wrong" for ever having made such games and that even if platform holders and leftist intruders back off, Japan will never make games like this again, because to them, they were "wrong"
>>731187008they are already doing a resurgence on the jp eshop nigga
>>731151894this is the definition of a loli you faggot
>>731187008I mean, let's be honest, games like Criminal Girls, Senran Kagura, Neptunia etc are objectionable or wrong purely from a moral perspective...but the truth is, MANY vídeo games can be considered as such and the same thing goes for other examples of content in another medium like movies (in general)...and that's what makes fiction great, we can do or explore things that are immoral or objectionable morally speaking and it's fine because it's fiction...fiction is objectionable all the time, blood, swearing, drugs...even mainstream content has those things pretty much all the time but if we start to be like "you can sexualize this character but not this character because it's even more objectionable or immoral", then fiction becomes more boring and pushes the envelope less...and sadly, this has already started a long time ago..
>>731187596about your opening sentence and self censorship. I think that's not how it worked at the time. When the switch was new they embraced all those otaku games and they even did that presentation on how the HD Rumble could replicate the feeling of boobs and all that crap by the Senran Kagura dude. They really went all in with it. Xenoblade 2 was done, etc. Clearly the early Switch had a counter move on the whole Sony debacle. And then later threehouse got so powerful so that X2 could't happen again and so eventually not even Qureate can release their softporn games in there anymore. So it is really a cultural imposition rather than self blaming and plain self censorship.
>>731187881>Clearly the early Switch had a counter move on the whole Sony debacle.It obviously was. They made this statement right at the height of the controversy. They knew what they were doing. Which makes it even worse in hindsight as they pulled in all these games seemingly just to fuck them over even harder than Sony, like springing a trap.
>>731188229but on nintendo's side it affects the international version most, even if it is slowly leaking to the japanese version of games too. I don't think the Japanese directive planned to screw localizations like what end up happening the last couple of years. With them removing games from the eshop post release even.
>>731188229Reminder that game on the compariso was swapped by the bikini schizo its censored on steam but not on the jp version
>>731188592Literally one of the Steam store screenshots is the uncensored cghttps://store.steampowered.com/app/2253930/Kamikaze_Lassplanes/
>>731188975iirc so did the screenshots for xcx de and it turned out to be censored
>>731144103Name 5 dungeon crawlers they sell in shartmart, I'll wait
>>731172510Be honest, did you REALLY think they were going to try and release this on Gaystation after the last seven years of censorship? Even the LoveR Kiss devs didn't bother despite it initially releasing on PS4.
On one hand, I'm against censorship and happy to see this.On the other hand, I bought it on JP release a decade ago and it was really boring, dropped 10hrs in, kind of embarrassing seeing people get their hopes up for such a mediocre game
>>731143553>*Great* newsBut what prompted this change of heart? And which platform are they going to release uncut version (the one that doesn't need patch)? Also I know this is probably futile but I'm gonna ask anyway, when are they going to bring castle panzer to the west so we have complete set of the trilogy?
>>731146634I still think this is tame as fuck compared to the degeneracies I've seen in western AAA like Dragon Age Failguard. Why the fuck is preaching and roleplaying about fluid sexuality ok but big boobs are not?
>>731147405>Just a prank bro!Zoomers need to jump off their balcony, like, right now.
>>731189936There was no change of heart, this publisher was always staunch fanservice advocates, it just took a while for this release to come to fruition since the game was rejected or censored from so many storefronts.>And which platform are they going to release uncut version (the one that doesn't need patch)? Can you not read? PC, it's a USB that loads the game onto your system.>when are they going to bring castle panzer to the westIf they ever do it (which is unlikely with how badly this game got fucked over), it'll probably be late this year or the next. The next major thing from Eastasiasoft, going by the pattern of their previous announcements, will probably be an Asia-English Switch version of Death end re;Quest Code Z since it got banned from the west along with the Neptunia Re;Birth games.>>731190006I feel the same, but clearly we live in fag world where gay bear sex is in mainstream games but don't you DARE objectify an anime girl chud! The whole "male sexuality is evil for objectifying womyn" rhetoric is how we got here, and as long as it holds public currency in any form, I don't expect the situation will change.
Hey right now I've got like a dozen crawlers to play. Help me decide between this and Demon Gaze and Dungeon Travelers 2 please.
>>731149019The post you replied to says Nintendo wouldn't allow the game to be released uncensored even in Japan, retard.
>>731186754Im glad we got both Mugen Souls uncensored on Switch before the new censorship wave.
>>731190287A pc release that doesn't rely on online platform in 2026 is almost like a unicorn. On one hand I'm happy they no longer have to cater to the whims of puritanical shitlords, on the other it's not going to have many publicity.
>>731156356Majogami has plenty of ecchi in it faggot.but you wouldn't know that.
>>731156715>We got rid of all the antiwhiteism in the industry over the last year1. I fixed that you queer ass dickless cuck2. it is no where fucking near being removed or purged.How stupid are you?Antiwhiteism is deeply ingrained in these devs.And you cucks going 'm...muh woke....!' only helps them.Stop being a pussy.Call them antiwhite
>>731157414>something that would resemble "Persona if made by the Neptunia guys".a nep persona game using Not-pokemon/digimon as the demons/summons could be pretty cool I think.what a waste.
>>731168386I really hope this meme inspires an Okami sports spin-off.Would be pretty fucking rad
>>731173602>It was a Vita exclusive game that released after the Switchvits games were launching in 2017 and beyond?For fucking who?
>>731191691NIS released Labyrinth of Galleria on Vita in 2020, the Switch version didn't come until a year later, and they chose to release it on the same day as SMT V.
>>731190395Yeah and it's well known EAS lied about that given they released the nep trilogy and DERQZ in japan with zero issues literally the day after their returnal clone flopped.
>>731151593>sold outI know it says preorders in a couple days, but still. Only a thousand units. I'm scared I'm not going to wake up early enough. $50 for this huge physical PC release. I'm not even a fan, but this is the type of shit i've been begging for>uniquely branded USB drivewhatever>soundtrack CD, art book, poster, sticker sheets, acrylic character standeesYES
CH has always sucked major ass and it's soul crushing that they're the ones being used to hold the line of traditional otaku media desu
>>731190369Dungeon Travelers 2 is an extremely solid game with a ton of content. Demon Gaze is inferior in most respects, but I do prefer it's aesthetics and music, and it's still fun. Demon Gaze is probably my favorite of the various Experience dungeon crawlers, though they're mostly pretty similar.I haven't played Tokyo Clanpool yet.
>>731193692>though they're mostly pretty similar.they were only similar up to the vita, after that they started to go wacko with some releases
>>731168386>says there's no guns>Chiyo starts with a pistol and can quickly get her hands on a flame throwerSounds like guns to me
>>731192926Better than senran trash that ended up dead
>not porno>still needed to be censoredIt's all so tiresome.
300+ posts is impressive.
>>731152643>>731153371They pretty much stopped bringing in new japanese adult titles for at least a year now. What's puzzling is that they still release some, like that monster loli guro game.
>>731192848Nep trilogy and DerQZ were published by Compile Heart in Japan, you retard.EAS only managed to release Nep trilogy in Asia-Pacific.
>>731197194People want these games despite what faggot demoralizers on /v/ will scream
>>731162484>>731162567>>731162771The wrench in this theory is this was the SEA release, so it would have been Nintendo of Japan which would have put as squash on it.Also, this is compile heart, they've been caught lying about what games they can and can't put on Nintendo systems. Either way, I don't care for these blue ball images, ether be fully clothed or give us actual nudity.This is why I'll never care for the Sony Senran Kagura games.
