>10 years later>still the best JRPG of all time
>>739004854>best JRPG of all timebut that title belongs to Final Fantasy (1997)
>>739004854>>still the best JRPG of all timebut thats Expedition 33
>>739004854>the best JRPG of all timeNope, wrong. That would be Digital Devil Saga 1+2 for the Playstation 2
>>739005016Final fantasy 1 released in 1987 though
>>739005148Not a jrpg
>>739004854Nigga, even pokemon is better than that shit.
>>739005717yes it is, are you retarded?
>>739006036No it's fucking not you mong, do you even know what the term JRPG stands for you fucking idiot? I swear to god your mother should have swallowed your low iq genetic dead end ass.
>>739006036It's literally fucking not.The only qualifier for being a JRPG is being made in Japan. E33 was not made in Japan.In other wordsDark Souls = JPRG Kingdom Hearts = JRPG Pokemon = JRPGFinal fantasy = JRPGE33 = WRPGUndertale = WRPGNo matter what you and your wannaweeb friends believe JRPG doesn't mean turn based.
>>739006274JRPG = japanese role playing game, so what happens when another country makes the exact same genre? Do we replace the first letter for every single instance of this? No that would be retarded, just like you. Its a jrpg
>>739005148Sorry, nepobaby. Better luck next time!
>>739006660Nigger, JRPG isn't a genre.>Do we replace the first letter for every single instance of this?You what? That's how it always workedRPG - role playing gameARPG - action role playing gameCRPG - character role playing gameMMORPG - Massively Multiplayer Online role playing gameE33 will never be a JRPG.
>>739004854BASED
>>739006274>>739006587>>739006660>>739006790>>739006946JRPG is a genre. Expedition 33 is a french-made game in the JRPG genre, just like Dark Souls is a japanese-made game in the WRPG genre.
>>739007007>Expedition 33 is a french-made game in the JRPG genre, just like Dark Souls is a japanese-made game in the WRPG genre.Describe what a WRPG and JRPG is.Go on
>>739007052wrpg = rpg with western sensibilitiesjrpg = rpg with japanese sensibilities
>>739007007True and BASED!
>>739007007Nigger, they aren't genres, they're just labels for where they came from. It has nothing to do with what type of RPG it is.
anons will argue about J vs W but not about the RPG part. none of these are true RPGs.
>>739007007I remember all those WRPGs about timing a dodge roll to i-frame through an enemy's attack. It was so fun in Baldur's Gate 2. Not as good in Dragon Age Inquisition, but I always love the arcade action of WRPGs.
>>73900485410 years and not even a peep about persona 6
>>739004854>>10 years laterhas it really been that long? :(
>>739007143Is it a game?Can you play it?Is there a player character with a role?Seems like a role playing game, then.
>>739007124So dark souls a game with "japanese sensibilities" being based heavily on japanese media is a western rpg and E33 being heavily inspired by the west is a Japanese rpg.Right.By the way I was talking about the gameplay but hey at least I can tell you why your own argument doesn't hold up.
>>739004854It's not even the best game in the Persona series.
>>739004854It's not even the best Atlus game
>>739007308>>739007342Now kiss
>>739007279Ignore the retarded contrarian bait
>>739004854And I'm still stuck on the mouse puzzle.
>>739004854Based>>739005148Based
>>739008036i'd mouse around on that boat too if i had a choice
>>739008085Go back
>>739007213they will only release P6 when they run out of random words to attach to P5 spinoffs.Please look forward to >Persona 5 Maracas >Persona 5 Gohan>Persona 5 Ballroom>Persona 5, Real Madrid 3
>>739004854The "gameplay" of P5 is SO much worse than Metaphor and Personafags never talk about that because they were never playing for gameplay in the first place, so calling this the best "JRPG" where the G is supposed to stand for Game is taking the piss
>>739009912Is metaphor even good?
>>739008365Based
>>739004854i love haru's hairy asshole!
>>739007007without Elder Scrolls we wouldn't have Dark Souls, simple as
>>739010125Yes as a JRPGNot as a dating sim, because it's not a dating sim it's a JRPGP5 is a dating sim
>>739006790>#2 FF9I like FF9 a lot but it falls off hard in the second half. It doesn't belong that high.
>>739010420Ah yes, 15 min of cutscenes from a 150 hours game, surely a dating sim.
>>739010659so you haven't played the game
>>739010818I've played it, you don't need to engage with romance at all.
>>739009912But it's a JRPG, the gameplay is always kinda terrible it's just about the characters and the presentation and stuff
>>739004854>buy p5 on jp release>realize immediately its fucking garbage>tell friends, people on message boards>nobody believes me>atlus spends millions on internet hype campaign before release in the west>i realize how foolish everything is>west release happens>baka gaijins play the game>they also realize its shit but the hype campaign forces them to rationalize and cope>p5 royal comes out>they buy it again>mfw
>>739010659Going out on dates is a complete waste of time that could be spent doing a different confidant in that same time slot.
>>73901098180% of the game is a mobile phone based zoomer simulator where bitches message you on whatsapp and you have to choose who you'll spend the day withThe remaining "combat" is the lowest form of turncringe where you press the damage button and no utility skill has any purpose for 20 hours. The functional equivalent of open field story mode Pokemon combat except you don't get to build a team or even choose your skills, as all of your teammates have fixed skills with no customisation or buildcraftThis is the number one thing Metaphor improves on. Your team is something you get to build and tweak, you choose character classes and skills, skill selection gives you viable utility early on and your equipment does something besides making a number bigger so you have meaningful choices - like a fucking RPG
>>739010981here is the totally not a dating sim content
>>739015372Damn, I didn't know that having a nice time with your friends meant you're dating them.
>>739015372>t. basement dweller with no friends
>>739014324based postPersona is a shitty visual novel with a barebones shitty RPG minigame now and then
>>739005317Remastered edition when?
>>739004854>>739006790P5Rs score is inflated by tendies. Metaphor will mog it when it comes out on the Switch
Literally not a single person who's played 2 or more JRPGs has this opinion.
>>739020682Stay mad
>>739005016>FFshit
>>739016624>>739018192They're not your friends Chris, they're NPCs in a dating sim
>>739021096Meds
persona 4 gaps 5. it's true, it's damn true
>>739004854Expedition 33 doesn't have 60 hours of faggy visual novel highschool drama shit so it's infinitely better
>>739005148>merely a year old>already mogged by a 10 year old gamegrim
>>739025794KEKFrogs won't like this.
I'm at the third palace and the game is super easy. I thought you fags said Atlus and Persona/SMT games were hard?Half of the battle mechanics are pointless and the overworked "sneaking" is a cake-walk snoozefest.
>>739007007Dark Souls is an ARPG.
>739004854How can it be the best JRPG when everything between the 1st palace and the Depths of Mementos is hot trash and a slog to play through?The answers are "It can't." and "You're retarded." btw.
>>739027059>SMT is hardAll the games before SMT 3 are hard.
>>739021096You're proving him right.
>>739021096Based, frogs seething
Should I pick up picrel or hades 1? I know theyre 2 entirely different genres but I just want opinions
>>739006790it is for me
>>739024303Persona 4's writing was dumb at time but nowhere was it ever as bad as "pancakes" or "rotten adults"
>>739007007had me in the first half
>>739021096this is the same person creating all those e33 seethe threads
>>739006790There's clearly an Atlas bias if they're willing to give Metaphor a 94.
>>739021096>>739025794Most GOTY awards of all time~
>>739033618
>>739004854i bounced off of it after quite a few hours and beating the first couple bosses. as much as I like the song, the fights and "YOU'LL NEVER SEE IT COMIIIIING" got really repetitive, also got annoyed that every day I could like...drink coffee and do one task then oops time for school and sleep, day's over bitch, boss is in a few days btw. no freedom
>>739004854a
>>739034045Yeah, Starfield won nothing. Nice non-sequitur, though.Unless you're trying to say "Journalists don't matter!" which only works against you, considering journalists are what gave Persona 5 such a high score, whereas E33's the highest-rated user game ever.
>>739004854It's not even the best in its own sub-series
>>739035349You're supposed to play P5 with the mindset of a soulless salaryman reliving his school days.
>>739004854It's just certifiably 'okay'It's not a bad game, it's not a particularly good game either though, and many of its critical problems like Haru being a nothingburger of a character weren't fixed at all in Royal (which has its own set of issues, on top of being the usual greedy Atlus rerelease)Don't hate that I played it, wouldn't play it again, and the constant gacha collabs and spinoffs and merch and whatnot they've been relentlessly milking for TEN YEARS instead of making a new entry in the series has generally soured it
>>739035548you guys enjoyed your school days? huh
>>739004854>10 years later>Still best girl

>>739006587do you seriously believe E33 has more in common with fallout than final fantasy?
