Which video game franchise has the most fans that never played the games?
Mario
>>736186875That's not right, Mario might be the most recognizable video game character from all time but that doesn't mean everyone that recognizes him is a fan of Mario games.
Any vocaloid (Miku) related games, they don't even like the music.
Telltale Walking Dead
>>736186832Pretty much anything Type-Moon related. Fuckers will keep posting pic related, but will never touch Tsukihime/Melty Blood.
>>736186832Funger
>>736187143>they don't even like the music.I refuse to believe there are people out there who somehow enjoy what's basically DDR without enjoying the music.
>>736187267its which franchise has the most fans that never played the game retard not which franchise has no fans left.
>>736186832Shantae
>>736187030THE BOX, THE BOX
>>736187030WHAT'S IN THE BOX?
>>736187664A bitch's a bitch, but a box could be anything! It could even be a bitch!
>>736186832RTS, there must be 100 groupies for every actual player
>>736186832Darkstalkers
>>736187030WHAT'S IN THE FUCKING BOX!
>>736187030>>736187761Well truth be told I know nothing of Danganronpa but I certainly would pick Junko. Not sure that makes me a fan or not.
>>736186832Quake probably isnt number one but its up there for the most fans who have never played it.
>>7361878141000% this.
>>736186832Mother easily
The original Life is Strange
>>736187030Junko is shit. Hiyoko is the best twintails.
>>736186832Five Nights at Freddy's
Legend of Zelda, because the vast majority know nothing of the 2D Zelda games.
LobCorp
>>736188208It's gachaslop now so it deserves it.
>>736187814>>736187908Are you guys really sure? It's the "most fans that never played it", Darkstalkers isn't that popular anymore and franchises like modern SMT definitely have more fans than it. And I'm willing to bet most didn't play any of the games.
All weebshit>b-but-ALL OF IT
>>736188208I'm very confident that if you single it down to ONLY lobotomy corporation the majority probably did play the game.The gacha though...? Probably not.
>>736188286Wasn't Darkstalkers more or less canned way back when?
>>736187782This is true. I've been watching Pro Starcraft for years but havent really played SC since 2012.
>>736187845She's crazy, and would likely torture you until you fall into despair.
>>736188421I'm more surprised people still watch starcraft lmao
>>736187782RTS is one of the easiest genres to get into, second only to FPS and platformers. The vast majority of "gamers" have played an RTS, if not Warcraft or Starcraft then AoE or C&C.
Every gacha game that ever existed
>>736187814I don't get why people refuse to play it. It's just as fun as SF and MvC.
im in hoyoverse games but just for the stories, characters, music, comunity etc...for instance in honkai impact 3rd last valkyrie i pulled was HoRB seele, never again i have touch the gacha or even play their events or whatsoever, just keep the second part history, same with genshin impact, i have only use yoimiya since ever, same in honkai star rail with la bronya and seele...i guess im part of that club where i do not play the hoyo-games just here for the vibes, comunity and stories they develop with the girls
>>736188827bullet hell is kinda niche, just as TD games, i like both, but it surprise me how few people you found in both genres categories, they are minigames at the end, its not something you would develop with high end lights, lots of money or great plots
Ninja Gaiden.
>>736186832I want to fuck marisa and that's all I need.
>>736187272I discovered neco arc via Melty blood AACC, but will still never actually play Tsukihime.
>>736186832I've jerked to some touhou shit, but I swear I've never seen any of the games in movement, only some screenshots of them and I have zero clues as to how many there are or what they're about.
>>736189412that whore has been with half gensokyo pop, better with patchou
>>736186832how the fuck did touhou become so popular world wide?
>>736189748>how many thereThat depends if you count every single game with a Touhou on the title or not>what they're about.It doesn't matter usually.
>>736188358nah even during ruina's heyday some people advocated people to outright SKIP LCit was ridiculous and the reason I say the downfall of PM's fanbase started with Ruina
That have never played any of the games? Souls has to be up there. Just in terms of le deep lore consumers who havent actually touched the games. But at least they watch full playthroughs and whatnot. Minecraft is another one where the number of consumers of content is likely many times more than people who have actually played the game.
>>736189836Insane amount of fan art even back in the 2000s
>>736189836The answer to your question is that it coincided perfectly with the age of the internet, starting from its creation all the way to its explosion in popularity. It all connected perfectly, that's what made it different.It should however also be noted that they are good games with good music and cute characters.
>>736189956looks easy, seems like the game of dodge the ball back in school, but this time with dozens of balls at the same time ^-^ naizu
>>736189974Well that's why I said Lobotomy Corporation and not Ruina.
>>736186832how the fuck has nobody said silent hill?its silent hill.
>>736187030Post the rest
>>736186832I like touhoubut /v/hu is one of the worst discord groups of people I've had the displeasure of having to witness
>>736186832Guilty Gear
>>736190150Dude fucking resident evil has more fans and most of them only ever watched the games. And worst of all they only ever watched MODERN resident evil games.That franchise is a cesspool of normalfaggotry.
>>736190142>looks easyIt isn't.
>>736189447>but will still never actually play Tsukihime.Why? It's a damn good VN.
>>736189836>only female cute chracters with some weirdos names "margatroid" wtf> decent music, but horrible characters scream at you please fix me> make it at a moment the word indie dev was weird 90s>beginning of the web, so you get not too much saturation or competition> make it a way so for the likers to do whatsoever doujin they want with it...> and lastly it got its own touch just like yokotaro games or hideo kojima, author games
>>736190405Neco-arcfags can't read or have the attention span to read.
>>736190556True, but it's their loss then. Tsukihime is absolute cinema.
>>736189836Early adoption on top of extremely lax views on fanworks.You can just make whatever and even sell it to other people who also like the same thing. Imagine trying to do that with any other franchise from a major corp.
>>736190405I can't read, I just like beating people up.>>736190556This
>>736190793>I can't readThen how the fuck are you even using this website then? If you can read 4chan posts all day, then you can read a VN. Now stop being a secondary and get reading.https://tsukiweb.holofield.fr/
>>736190405>>736190556>>736190673I know nothing of this series other than the porn.Granted I don't consider myself a fan of it so there's that.
>>736190998how much time of my sad existence will take me to complete one run??
>>736191121Get to it.
>>736186832I like Touhou. I've been following the doujins for years.
I beat touhou 8 on normal once, which means I have the right to masturbate to any girl that is in it right?
>>736191251And you have played ONE game right?Maybe one of the easier games?Maybe one of the off-shoots?Maybe a fan game that is not a bullet hell?Maybe just a random fucking porn game with touhou characters?Right? RIGHT?!
>>736191246good for a weekend starting friday, will see
>>736191064High school boy kills a white girl, only to find out that white girl is a immortal vampire. She forces him to accompany her as repayment and hijinks happen.>>736191121You can knock out all five routes in a week.
>>736191350not if you did it using bombs, the rule is not using bombs so you fap to any girl of that game you beat
>>736191350Yes anon, congratulations. You may now choose and marry any touhou from IN.
>>736186832Any and every. Seriously go look at console and steam stats for achievements.
>>736191431>High school boy kills a white girl, only to find out that white girl is a immortal vampire. She forces him to accompany her as repayment and hijinks happen.Damn that's crazy.Is the porn canon?
>>736191639>Is the porn canon?In the original VN, yes. The remake is unfortunately censored.
>>736189836cute girlscatchy musiclax copyright/fanart standardsearly adapter
>>736191602Using achievements for that is stupid.I really like Noita, played it, beat it. Have only 8 achievements and 80 hours on it. Never autistically determined myself into completing all of its ridiculously difficult extra content.Ask anyone that has done everything I have and they will tell you that I "didn't even play the game"
>>736191392i do really really want to play this
>>736191816And you WILL. Right? RIGHT?
>>736189974Real video gamers don't skip Lobotomy Corporation.
>>736191246>40-50 hoursthis is why I will never read VNsfucking absurd and I know this shit is considered "average"
>>736191994you've never read a book in your life
>>736191917(*^_^*)btw do you recommend this one, saw few shots in niconico and call my attention out
>>736191981So like 20% of the PM fanbase. Lower if you only consider those who actually finished it
Touhoufags there was some shitty ass fan game I used to play that I got from a fan game site that was a card game where you went to gacha machines (actual gacha machines) and spent money for the cards then fought with them in tournaments. There was also a mode where you hung out with actual 2hus for some reason.What fucking game was it?
>>736191751It's not stupid when you see that like 40% of players have the unskippable achievement for completing the tutorial and 20% have the unskippable achievement for clearing the first level / prologue / boss / whatever applies.
>>736186832I played Soku with /v/ a lot back when it was relevant. I feel like that counts.
>>736191723He looks like a dork but this guy at 16 already fucked a white girl, a nun, his sister, the maids, his underage cousin and a cat.
>>736192367>a nunCiel is a Executor of the Church. She is not a nun.
>>736190405A damn good VN is something like pic, or maybe Raging Loop. Type-Moon in general doesn't produce good VNs.
>>736192125and? still not going to bother with VNs.
>>736192498I really like her but i never had curry in my life.
>>736186832jokes on you I did play luna nights I played touhou (I don't like touhou)
>>736192620It's really good just make sure to get it from a place that doesn't suck or to follow a recipe that doesn't suck. The spicier the better.
>>736191392are there any actually good touhou fangames?
Hello /v/hu I accidentally got drunk again!
>>736192553You're entitled to your incorrect opinions.
>>736186832everyone on /v/ doesn't play videogames, and yet for some reason is a fan of every videogame franchise.for instance, I don't play Sonic and I despise those Sonic game, and yet for some reason I'm still a fan of the franchise.
>>736192696The Labyrinth of Touhou games are actually pretty great
>>736192553>damn good VN>steins;gateEh. I wasn't impressed by it
>>736192553The only good part of Stein's Gate is Kirisu. It's not that good.
>>736192585I don't care for that you do I'm saying you're a retard.
>>736192553>S;Gfag Even without being mentioned they still come in to shit up any thread whenever there is talks of TM VNs. It's like they're tsun for Nasu's dick.
>>736192498She looks like a man without glasses, this is why you have the option to keep them on during her route.
>2husI wonder to what extent their portrayal in fangames(and other shit) is just a complete OOC nonsense
>>736192703Stop
>>736192946>She looks like a man without glassesThe one thing i like about the remake is Ciel's touched up design. She got a pretty good glow up.
>>736193027
where do you start with touhou?
>>736193057Shame she doesn't have the body paint.
>>736192875That's where you're wrong. It IS that good. TM readers have low standards though from what I understand.
>>736193140You don't
>>736193243Whatever you say bro. I didn't like it personally. Got way too fucking melodramatic for me. Also no H.
>>736192964Varies by both character and game, most of the time it feels like an exaggerated parody of their most well known traits, most of the highly rated fangames don't completely assassinate a character in favor of whatever made up bullshit headcanon, but if it looks low effort it probably does. Some characters always seem to get the short end of the stick even in otherwise well adhering works though.
>>736192880good for youstill won't waste 50 hours on VN slop
>>736186832baldurs gate
>>736193140Touhou 7
>>736193183Yeah. The loss of the body paint is a huge L, but everything else is okay.
>>736193393I'll waste 50hs pounding your mom
>>736193140found a clown piece remix, liked the music, she looked appealing, one thing to the next one, then we start a family
>>736188827nobody plays it because Capcom hasn't made a new one in like 30 years.
>>736192176Is this the metroidvania one? Haven't played it
>>736190405>a damn good VN.which still puts it in roughly the bottom third of all video games.
>>736193140EosD and UFO
>>736192337Yes, you have in fact played a touhou video game before! Congratulations! You are among the top 1%!
>>736193598>not starting from the shitty PC95 stuffsoulless
>>736193484sounds like a better use of time than bothering with VNs
>>736186832Dwarf Fortress is the real answer. Viewers of players' youtube fort stories were the majority of their patreon supporters before steam release.
Meira Balls
>>736193645None of you faggots started with them
>>736193749I did you fucking cockeater
>>736192696If the only thing you know about touhou is the porn then EraTW is a touhou porn fan game for you to touch your penis to!
>>736193645>PC95
>>736193858I meant 98
>>736192784>I don't play Sonic and I despise those Sonic game>for some reason I'm still a fan of the franchise.What
>>736193885Sure thing, zoomzoom. I'll believe you for now
>>736192696Yes, quite a lot actuallySRPG - Fantasy Maiden Wars (can teach you the lore)RPG - The Genius of Sappheiros (and the sequel The Devil of Decline), Labyrinth of Touhou 2 and 3, Touhou Mother (requires knowledge of the Mother series)SMT clone - Artificial Dream in ArcadiaPokemon clone - Touhou Puppet Dance Performance (with extended mod)Ace Attorney clone - Shady TrialCute shit - Aunn chan to the rescue, Cirno lifts a boulder
>>736193140You start by not being a frog poster. That is a mandatory requirement before you can properly play any of the games. Work on that and then let me know so we can move onto the next step.
>>736193935Thanks bro I knew I could count on you
>>736188523>The vast majority of "gamers" have played an RTS, if not Warcraft or Starcraft then AoE or C&C.Nigga still thinks it's 2004. We're getting old.
>>736194078No... Warcraft 3 is still pretty new.
>>736192946I think she looks cooler without them
>>736186832Persona 5
>>736186832Any franchise that relies on youtube lore videos to get popular because nobody wants to touch the game. Like Lobotomy Corporation
>>736194218Which game FRANCHISE anon, not single game nor series.The correct answer would be SMT
>>736194225All FromSoft games? Geez I thought they were the greatest
When I jerk off to Touhou characters I'm imagining the anons that post those girls
>>736194225I played the entirety of lobotomy corporation with /v/ constantly giving me advice for it during one of the old queen of /v/ tournaments. It was really fun.
>>736187272I never heard of melty blood or any of that shit before watching carnival phantasm. which I watched because I really liked kannagi. that being said I didn't particularly care about the characters I just watched a funny anime with cute girls that also had neco-arc in it. which wasn't even a meme at the time
i like touhou music (preferably remixes) and games but don't really care about the characters.https://youtu.be/OLl1LGAZNJA
>>736194353QoV got me to try games I would have never given the chance or let on my backlog for ages.
>>736194383that's because you're a true primary, every character in this series is completely a unlikable piece of shit
>>736194404Same actually. Every year I try something new from the tournaments. Last year was... guilty gear I think?
>>736194453Sakuya in the actual games is way more likeable than the fan version of sakuya.
HELLO!!!
>>736194383>(preferably remixes)Touhou is one of the few games where the OST is good enough to never need remixes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw2WQjqKpVM
>>736194453Fairies are fine. Literal retards sure, but still above the rest of the cast
>>736194348You imagine dudes while jorking it?
>>736194348>I'm imagining the anons that post those girlsYou don't even know what I look like you retard how can you do that
>>736188523I'd disagree with this heavily. I can easily play other strategy games but RTS games are just impossible for me to get into. I don't think there is a more uninviting genre to casuals.
At least post a GOOD trackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1NhSVtK5KQ
>>736194543i feel like some things can still be tweaked by people who know music better than ZUN
>>736194541domo
>>736193991>Touhou Puppet Dance Performancecan't seem to find anywhere to download the romhack. also didn't know moriya shrine was gone now. I clicked on a search result with it and apparently it got legal action
>>736194541Hello!
>>736192784>>736193897Sonic posters? love 'emSonic toys? love 'emSonic music? love 'emSonic cartoons? love 'emSonic movies? love 'emSonic porn? love 'emSonic games? FUCK NO
>>736186832Touhou plays great though. Its one of the more accessible shmup titles out there and you can't go wrong with the majority of the games.
>>736194495the SDM cast in general is completely misrepresented in fanworks
>>736189748>>736194225Here have some canon touhou lore delivered to you through a really really cute animationhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7URHU4oFW0

>>736188478So she's a woman, got it. I choose her.
>>736195258But I like being drunk. At this point it's basically my natural state of being
>>736195085The Persona series if you wanna talk just about Persona and not SMT as a whole has gone completely downhill. People will argue when that happened but to keep in the theme of the thread I can say certainly that up to Persona 2, every single person that considered itself a fan would have had to have played Persona 1 or 2 to say that, I have no doubts about that.Persona 3 still gets some lenience because it was the game that broke the mold, by the time it launched most people who liked it were people that played Persona 2 or other SMT games I suppose and went to play Persona 3. But at this point there definitely could already have some people who didn't play it at all and were just on the bandwagon. The game did launch on 2007 which at this point in time you still needed to play games to know the most about them too.Persona 4 is where it all went downhill, I hardly believe anyone that likes it on this day and age even finished it let alone play it.And Persona 5 is lol, lmao even.
>>736194789>moriya shrine is deadAw fuck.
>>736194289Excuse me I played every single souls game and loved them before all of you "elden ring kids" showed up and ruined it for all of us.Fuck you.

>>736195758No, I am actually reading Higurashi at this very moment. It is just that when I want to masturbate, I need visual and auditory stimuli; texts don't do it.
I can't readJoJo's Bizarre Adventure fan btw
>>736196064Yeah that checks out
>>736187030I'll take you.
>>736195540>Persona 4 is where it all went downhill, I hardly believe anyone that likes it on this day and age even finished it let alone play it.I was around when this game came out. At least in the beginning, around 08-09, it was still a very niche fatlus game. The main complaint being that the story and mood was much more lighthearted compared to previous entries. Still, everybody who talked about it actually played the games. When the anime came out, it went straight into normalfag territory.
>>736194789>moriya shrine was goneWHAT DA HECK where do i get my fan games now!?
>>736195874Who the fuck is a "fan" of a flight simulator. Not just "liking the game" but considering itself a fan implies a fandom exists.Can anyone point me to where the flight simulator fandom is?
1ccs?
>>736186832Fallout.Granted you can be a fan of the show, and that's fine, but it will be confusing from here on out.
>>736195758Japs can't into text based fangames. +14 years and ERAs are still shit
>>736186832I feel like im the rare inverse Toe Hoe fan. I played all the main games and a bunch of the deviation work games, but don't engage with much else beyond some music remixes or occasional porn. I honestly couldn't even tell you the names of most of the characters despite beating the shooting games since i only played them in jap.
>>736193243Fate and Tsukihime are better stories than S;G in every way. Science Adventure in general is slop.
>>736196329That's why you play the non-jap version maintained and updated by the 4chan anonymous guy peoples!
>>736195896>I need visual and auditory stimuliYou shitty brats have it too easy. Back in my days, imagination was your best friend.
>>736196317Didn't fallout go to shit after 2 or something? I honestly never played any of them but that's what I gather when I hear people talking about it. Apparently the first one was a pretty dark game and then 2 was different and everything else went to crap or something like that.

>>736189974there's also a sizeable amount of secondaries on fucking Roblox of all things and I can bet you those kids never touched any of the 3 gameswhich is a damn shame, lobcorp is the best out of the whole series

>>736196263The oyster girl would never post frogs
>>736197009I like those games. I want to fuck the girl ghosts.
>>736199751Are Yokais from other games more fuckable than touhou Yokais?
>>736199949Touhous are more fuckable because none of them are freaks and creatures.
>>736198173AIEEEEEEEEEE
>>736200009Many of those are VERY fuckable though. I would.

It’s permanently seared into everyone’s retinas from 2013.Eiki would absolutely slam the gavel and sentence you to 900 years of moral re-education for even thinking about it, and you’d thank her for the opportunity. That’s the real difference between Touhou yokai and everything else - they’ll judge you, lecture you, and then step on you with divine authority.And yes, that makes them more fuckable, not less.
