KYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAHADOL ECCHI NO BAKA HENTAI
Extremely high quality thread, OPI am proud of you
>>737694080>japanese humor
>>737694684It'd be american humor if adol was black.
40 year old NEETs will look at you with a straight face and tell you that this is the greatest work of fiction ever created
>>737695292the ost is bomb thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvBla5NUlvkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDd6pSTDGC4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qh849LiYDPQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz9yQ-qzWiM
>>737694860It'd have to involve rape first.
Ys really went to shit after Origin
>>737695452This, frankly.
>>737695292It is, the ending of VIII is fucking incredible
>>737695292Sorry for not being castrated, Zoomer bro
Recently finished X after VIII which would you recommend i play next/ at all?
>>737695858Trails, Zwei II (you can skip the first Zwei), and Tokyo Xanadu.
>>737695452Origin is meh whereas VIII was the last good JRPG released.
>>737696410trails is bad boring dogshit (except the two crossbell games)
>>737694080peak comedyI raffed
>>737695761>brings up testicles out of nowhereCurious!
Do I buy Ys 9 on sale?
>>737696661It's a good Party Ys game.
>>737695292The OST and Gameplay alone mog 99% of modern games.
>>737696661If it's a big sale? Sure. It's not outright terrible but it's definitely a downgrade from 8 in every single aspect.
>>737695430>It'd have to involve rape first.And him holding an automatic weapon tilted to the side.
im literally Adol
>>737696708>good Party Ys gameNo such thing.
>Ree why aren't you giving me the enhanced edition for free Why are PC gaymers like this? The base X steam page is also full of these retards complaining. They are acting like definitive edition releases are something unheard of.
>>737694860>white person hitting a black personYikes, too problematic.
>>737698330All of this would have been avoided if they tightened up the release windows between Japan and the rest of the world. I know this is bait but announcing an enhanced edition of a game within months of its worldwide release is just bad taste, especially after having to wait over a year to get the base game in the first place.
>>737694080>shower scene
>>737694080This is the greatest work of fiction ever created.
>>737694080Know the difference.
>>737699245both games are kino, hang yourself troon
>>737699312>troons out of nowherenot obsessed btw
>>737699245both of these are dogshit, as it turns out
when do the shitload of cutscenes end in XI want to, i don't know, PLAY a fucking videogame
>>737694080It should've been Ricotta in this scene
>>737694080I'm so tired of these new Ys games. Bring back Feena and Rhea.
>>737699765Ricotta would drop the towel for Adol.
>>737695292Yes.
>>737699312Hey fellow chuds, don't you think both sides are as bad as each other?
>>737698330Trails series doesn't sell you the same DLC outfits in the next game. Those are included and they sell you new outfits instead. Good for these brave Ys players to stand up for themselves.
>>737694080Dana mogged Laxia in every way, literally the girl of Adol's dreams, but he can't have her He also fell in love with a literal goddess another time, and can't have her either.being Adol Christin seems like suffering.
Dana MOGS
>>737700191Paypiggies who buy dlc outfits deserve to be squeezed for all they're worth. shit used to be included in base game, but because of these cattle now they are all sold as mtx.
>MC is called ADOLFlol
>>737694080In real life, if this happened to any male and female so far from civilized society, you know what would've happened instead of this...
Is VIII is as good as Oath or Origins?I wasted to play but the switch version is shit.
>>737701182they're so different they're not really comparable.Just like Oath and Origin are so different as to be incomparable to Ys 1 and 2.They play completely differently.Oath and Origin are pure 3/4 perspective action RPG, with a single playable character, utilizing elements of platforming, with some almost shmup like elements when playing Hugo in Origin.Where YsVIII is an over the shoulder view action RPG, which might seem similar just different perspective on the surface, but it also ends up not utilizing platforming nearly as much as a result.Other big changes are having party members that you switch between to deal with damage type vulnerabilities, resource gathering and crafting adding survival game elements, and tower defense modes... and if you dislike tower defense, brace yourself, it will get shoehorned on you constantly, just as you're getting close to a boss battle you'll have the parrot come in and tell you your castaway village is being raided so you have to go back to defend it.It's highly annoying.I liked some elements of VIII but I preferred Oath/Origin.
Just finished this game recently and I'm still mad at the ending.
>>737701692I'm always kind of depressed at Ys Endings. Adol never gets the girl, he either outright ditches her (Elle)or she becomes unattainable (Feena, Dana)
>>737694080>that sword drophttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhsXJLcpJEU
>>737695373Basedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkRKTsGrtqAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XhkaxG6Zywhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xogTY-BvV6shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0fGFxFa7BMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ta-Tlo2mnM
>>737701857Sure, I generally don't expect good endings from Japs in general, but the whole 'recreating reality' aspect of it is extremely retarded. Everything in the old reality still happened for Dana and there's nothing she can do about it. I also feel bad for Olga. The ayylmao is the one who lives but Olga, the one who tried to keep things together and died alone, doesn't. Honestly, I was enjoying the game in the beginning when I thought this was just a tropical adventure on a dinosaur infested island and the goal is kill the kraken and leave. The summit of the mountain was really the summit of the game for me - it's all down hill from there. The ending was so shit I don't even fee like completing Dana's dungeon anymore, let alone whatever post-game shit they have.
>>737695858Brandish: The Dark DescendantXanadu NextAny other Ys except 9 (leave it for last)
>>737699693It becomes more bearable after the big worm boss intro but never really lets up.
>>737700683>bikinis used to be included as postgame or halfway into a gameYeah, and I'm fine with paying to get them immediately. Or to get an even sexier one than the free one. Not okay to charge twice. There's milking your cows and knowing this precious milk from healthy and happy cows is your livelihood. And then there's kicking your cows until it squirts out the last drop.
>>737701857>or she becomes unattainableOnly one that really got me for some reason.
>>737702403I completed it but didn't feel closure, I felt hollowness, emptiness.The extinction of entire species just to "keep things interesting" and ultimately you're just "dreams" that a deity has while taking a nap. Then they recreate reality and go back to napping.and the extinctions will eventually continue.Nothing was solved, Dana was lost.as an individual and just became an abstract concept.
>dana>not brownboo
>>737702715it's always the blue haired ones that get me, but I also felt bad for Elle I guess.
>>737701182Party ys is more brain dead/button mashy compared to Oath and Origin but it's still funThis mod made the music in X way more enjoyablehttps://youtu.be/9Rw06z4fj6Y?si=ooTwkz-9xoNuwIQj&t=79
Ys 8's story was mid and took up too much time in an overall middling action RPGThe map is big but not particularly interesting, I'll take small tight dungeons over big empty fields any dayCombat is fast paced and "addictive" but ultimately spammy and shallowIt's a good 7.5/10 game but people just oversell it, I was barely halfway through when I already wanted it to be over with
>>737702345https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfWYlVQPY7Yhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIK738WVSqw
>>737694080Why is this game so gay and doesn't let Adol settle with a harem?
>>737703229I didn't like Night Survivor, it just gets way too loud for some reason and feels harsh?
>>737702778>I completed it but didn't feel closure, I felt hollowness, emptiness.This right here is the problem. I could handle a sad ending if it actually felt like an ending. Adol and the castaways get to leave the island because that was the extent of their problem, but Dana and the Eternians side of things remain perma-fucked. Recreating reality with changes raises more questions than it answers and that ending just tells you it's over and that's a good thing but it really doesn't seem that way.>>737703081Agreed. I'd say it's a 7/10. The island setting was interesting at first but the pacing of the story and generic JRPG shenanigans killed it. The game really should have ended long before it actually did.This is the first JRPG I've played in about ten years and I'm just reminded of why I don't play them more often.
>>737703229>>737703362didn't even have to check to know it's BingaDude just has no restraint on his synths
>>737703423I don't hate Binga's songs, but he has a few of my favorites as well as a lot of my least favorites. Sometimes he has cool ideas but he always churns out so many that the execution often fails to land.
>>737699839Certainly, she was all about 'having babies' at one point. Forget about Dana, Adol. You got a qt smasher loli already.
>>737703405It'd almost be a better game if the Lacrimosa aspect of it and Dana as a character simply didn't exist in it at all.I wouldn't be seeking closure for characters and arcs if they hadn't existed in the first place.It just feels like an unjust goddess seeing all these other beings as disposable.Had they shown something akin to all the previous wardens and species existing on another plane so that you knew that their extinction wasn't some unresolved injustice but something solved and that they still exist and are happy.. there'd be closure.But with them all just gone, or abstractions at best, at the whims of some all powerful tree cunt.... you begin to understand why the enemy of a lot of JRPG's is God.
>>737703423>>737703842bingus is fine as long as he never touches anything related to guitar or electric synths, some of his stuff is quite good, most of it is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMrevu1FKYghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8wbS0nDHzothe problem is that most of his stuff is generic as fuck and when its bad its REALLY BAD, ear bleeding levels of badhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pduD-cRx8salso the way he butchered one of the most iconic songs in the series is beyond mehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qk8RYZrmZdEunisuga mogs
>>737703907The enemy are story writers who think they can craft some really grandiose epic that really makes you think only to deliver typical modern shounen slop tropes as if going through a checklist. A nice little adventure and some realistic bad guys along the way are all that's needed for a good story in these games.
>>737704220>most of it is most of it is just generic*
>>737695292ys 8 is actually one of the best action games ever made
>>737703842He's not inherently awful and there's a couple tracks I like but it feels like the songs either lack polish or he literally just runs out of ideas halfway through a track
>>737704220>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pduD-cRx8syknow ingame I kinda didn't mind this song, I think it only plays maybe 3 times? Isn't it McBurn's boss theme? Dude is so corny that it didn't bother me.>[YouTube] Sora no Kiseki SC Evolution OST - Fateful ConfrontationYeah fucking hell that's awful. Was he working on the FC Evo OST too? Because I remember that one being good
>>737704220Unisuga my belovedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ok9bzDzaS0No idea if there's any hope on him coming back and composing original songs again Kai final boss was so good
>>737703907Yeah, it really seems like the writer had no idea what he was doing and was trying to copy ideas he had no way to handle.The tree-cunt killing entire species just because she was bored was an extremely retarded concept and no one brings it up when they're face to face with her, even the wardens. >Had they shown something akin to all the previous wardens and species existing on another plane so that you knew that their extinction wasn't some unresolved injustice but something solved and that they still exist and are happy.. there'd be closure.This would have been a good way to end things. The wardens being around means their species all still died for no reason in their history, even if reality's been re-written.
>>737695292I'm 40 and YS VIII was the game that got me back into gaming a couple of years ago after the big western sloppifying. It lead me into emulation since it made me realise graphics doesn't matter, story and fun does. And you just don't have to care about modern western gaming, there's enogh old games to last a couple of lifetimes.
>>737704681Took you long enough to realize. I've avoided anything triple A coded since 2012 with the extremely rare exception like MHW in 2018.
>>737704478>Was he working on the FC Evo OST too?nah, the first game he actually worked on was SC evo, he did have one song in tokyo xanadu before that though and its also pretty exceptionally bad, doesn't have that the entire OST for that game is amazing since its all sonoda and unisugahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4q9otOwb_o
i am reading the ys 8 book at the moment. its alright
>>737694080the character designs in these games are awful
>>737705598Character designs haven't been good since Ys 7.
>>737699839>when she tells Adol he better call dibs on her before she grows up imagine if a game did this in [current year]
>>737694080this is the most profound scene in all of ys series
>>737705836
I still wanna fuck the nun and the blacksmithhell, even the smoothie mommy
>>737694080>ADOLWhat that fuck... that's literally off by one letter. Is this a chud game?
It's been 25 years since I've seen this exact same scene for the first time.Why is Japan this fucking pathetic? Are consumers really that stupid?
its pretty hilarious that isle siren is probably still falcoms nicest looking environment. its obviously still basic because of its vita nature, but not a total car crash like basically every game since and at least has a consistent style to it
they did proud nordics when they should've done YS 9 GRIM NOX Edition or whatever, with playable Aprilis
>>737705989Smoothie MILF is the second best girl in the game after Dana
>>737694080Genuinely laughed when this happened in the first hour of the game, all I could think of was the KYYAAAAAA threads from here
>>737706196It took them years of ridicule but they finally hired some actual professional animators and now they got some of the best stuff in the industry. Maybe in a couple years they'll figure out environmental design
>>737707728animations wise they have definitely stepped up their game and are way better than most other anime slop these days, though it can still feel somewhat jerky in movement. now they only need to make good games again with that tech
Ys kino thread, the best Falcom series.
>>737695858Definitely play Oath in Felghana, that game is actually amazing.
>>737706056Look up who Japan was allied with during World War 2. My advice? Don't take a big drink of water first.
>>737705989>>737706961>smoothie milfmiralda?
Is there any word on what's next for Ys after 10? If they're doubling down on making Ys more like Kiseki, I'll be giving up on Falcum.
>>737694080I don't get why the camera always pans up in these scenes after they yell
hello sirs, aldolf christian is my favorite gameman
How is Falcom still alive?
>>737695292this is the greatest work of fiction ever created
>>737707728Rean is the only redeeming quality of modern falcom
>>737709151well they can produce games relatively cheap and quick. they do know that somethings gotta give though, kiseki is in a bit of a weird spot right now especially in japan, ys is kinda floundering everywhere and kyoto xanadu is a bit of a wildcard, though i cant imagine that game to make a big splash for a full price title
>>737694080>closes his eyes and looks to the sidewhat a cuck
>>737708485Good call on not taking a sip out of my big gulp. I'm literally shaking.
>>737709151by not bankrupting themselves with AAA budgets and 10 year dev cycles
>>737708731Yes.she's great, she teases you with the "if only we'd met 10 years ago" lines
>>737711310i forgot about her, honestly, but yeah, she's hot, as are the other milfs in the gameshame that ys is lacking in porn
>>737711480yeah Kathleen and Griselda are decent too, and Sister Nia.They all mog Laxia.
>>737695292It isn't, but it's top 25 videogames, easy
>>737694080>A bath towel in the middle of the wilderness. Why.
>>737711634I hate this design. The leaves on her hairline make her hair look like a wig.Dana cute though.
>>737708956Because the scream reverberates upwards.
for me its Frieda
>>737694080holy cringe. no wonder you effeminate autists grew up into total inceldom.
>>737694080I genuinely despised the intro to Ys 8. Not because of this but just because of how many cutscenes there were in general. Felt like I would literally walk a single screen and get hit by a cutscene for the first ~5 hours.
>>737694080>AdolIs his last name Itler?
>>737703316Adol is adventuresexual and also has oneitis for a girl that turned into stone.
>>737711850finished calcutta recently. I liked it a lot more than I thought I would considering it's age and one of the earlier party games. Purple hair gov'na is hot and I'm glad she shows up in 8>>737712153christian, and rance is based off of him
>>737711541indeed, although laxia is hot as wellfor me, though, it's the cowtits woman from ys IX>>737712280it's celcetta, although nice meme if that's what you were going for
>>737712674I dunno I'm just not into tsunderes, Ojou Samas don't do it for me either.. combine the two and it's awful.at least she doesn't have drill hair.Griselda's an Ojou-sama but she's more down to earth in how she interacts with Adol, she doesn't play up the princess aspect that much.
sirs, memories of calcutta is my favorite yees game!
>>737712809griselda is great, although as opposed to you, i love ojousamas and drill hair
>>737694080Dumb slut, she doesn't know Adol is strictly adventuresexual and doesn't care about bitches.
>>737713104is Adol secretly gay?
>>737695292No the greatest work of fiction is Ys1&2 when you can get a shota stuck in a corner and molest him
>>737713184I'm embarrassed that I did that to get 100% in that game.feeling up a literal goddess is one thing
>>737713143Adol is married to adventure.
>>737712870that's my least favorite Ys game
Adol will meet all his old companions someday and they will all be married
>>737694080Didn't this shitpost used to call say 'Avdol'? What happened, jojo posting ruin your ass too many times?
Last good YS.
>>737707728Still jank.
Never thought I'd see a thread full of fruitcakes seething over a game not having a 100% happy ending on /v/, but here we are. This place really has become reddit.
>>737695452The party-based games are worse to be sure, but they're still fun. Wish they would move away from this and give us a solo Adol adventure again.
>>737696661I actually found it a bit better than 8. It's mostly more of the same if you did like 8 tho.
>>737698330>don't allow people to just buy the extra content as DLC>everyone should just clap that they have to pay a premium for a whole new game instead
>>737714760Eh I laughed at the retards too but I didn't feel like commenting anything. It's ok to completely miss the point sometimes.
>>737705836>complete lunatic asshole turns into the nicest guy everThat was actually a cool plot ploint
I hope future Ys games don't keep returning to a random point in Adol's past anymore. Kinda wanna see more of his older self.
hey guys! wait for me! *running*i just downloaded ys 1-2 yesterday, hold the thread for me! *buys armor and sword*wait a minute i'm stuck, fuck!i wonder if i should start my ys first time marathon now, is this a sign from the gods?[(spoiler]
>>737705598>>737705707Objectively wrong. (and gay)
>>737716257Why didn't you post Adol's gay hoodie and shorts design if it's so good?
>>737695452I want a new ark system ys game so bad it's unreal
>>737716243TGCD version? noicehave fun bud
