we're a month out from new Asano kino. How hyped are we? What platform are you getting it on?new gameplay: https://x.com/Stealth40k/status/2056383813635240091
>>739131927>What platform are you getting it on?Difficult question tbqh.PC has the benefit of transitioning smoothly between deck & pc.Switch 2 has the most comfortability, but its a fucking gkc.
>>739132291>Switch 2 has the most comfortability, but its a fucking gkcThis bums me out honestly. These games feel perfect for Switch, but I don't want to go digital
>>739131927PS5, i was gonna get it on sw2 since it probably woulda run it fine but then i saw that it was on a gkc so ps5 it is.
>>739131927>enemies that barely react>puzzles for sub 40 IQs>aggravating fairy commentary
>>739133032>I finished the game in a single twit!terminally retarded onlinigger
>>739133032yup, it's gaming time
>>739131927>Adventures of ElliotWhat a stupid name for a brand new IP. Just call it "The Millennium Tales". That's way cooler than the adventures of ELLIOT.ELLIOT just makes me think of Brendan Fraser in Bedazzled.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3R8DDvJMAw
>>739133145t.
>>739131927>How hyped are we? What platform are you getting it on?VeryPC
>>739133032>aggravating fairy commentaryshes cute in japanese dub
>>739131927I'm just going to play Mina the Hollower instead
>>739133315Never heard of that movie. The first thing I think of is ET. It must just sound exotic to the Japanese
>>739133523Why not both? They seem to be quite different from each other even if they both take after Zelda in some aspects. Honestly these two games are the only stuff I'm looking forward to this year right now
>>739133654There are a bunch of other games coming out this year that I also want to play
>>739131927Decently hyped. I always get HD-2D games on PC so I can tone down the post-processing, plus the Switch 2 demo had a lot of noticeable frame drops even on performance mode, although maybe they've ironed it out since then.>>739133523Just play both, that's what I'm going to do. Elliot is coming out over two weeks after Mina and I doubt Mina will be a very long game. You can probably do a bunch of runs before Elliot releases.
>>739133898Mina is going to be about 20 hours
>>739133802Please tell me some
>>739134141So not that long, you'll definitely finish before Elliot unless you only play an hour or less a day. Subsequent runs are also quicker in these games when you know what you're doing and where to go.
Reminds me of Ys a little. Not as flashy, but really cool. Definitely playing it. PC.
>>739131927pc when it's on sale in 3 months after flopping :)
>>739134708I doubt it will flop
>>739134408For me personally: DenshattackStar FoxSplatoon RaidersFire Emblem Fortune's WeaveDuskbloodsOcarina of Time remake (pretty obviously real based on Star Fox existing)OnimushaPhantom Blade 0Marvel TokonWolverine Blood of DawnwalkerGTA 6Also at least interested in James Bond, Fable and Gears E Day, I'm waiting to see how they shake out though>>73913448420 hours is long enough for me to my fill of 2D Zelda
>>739135173Holy normalfag.
>Recent tweet said you take magicite and "assign them to your weapons">This gameplay footage is missing the loadout tab from the radial menuDid they fix the obtuse magicite loadout mechanic? Are they equipped directly to the weapon slot now? My biggest complaint from the demo was how your magicite loadout only had enough points to focus on one or two weapons at a time. When you swapped weapons you'd want to swap to the relevant loadout, too, but that was a separate menu. Streamlining that is a great change.
>>739135448You asked and I answered. I don't know if they're all going to be good or not, but that's why I don't want to play two top down Zelda games back to back
>>739133032Almost sounds like a lot of Zelda games I'm sold.
>>739134408better list
>>739133315>Legend of ZeldaStupid name for a franchise, just call it Twilight Princess.
>>739131927totally forgot about it til i checked what other shit i had installed on my switch 2.
>>739135917Do women in Germany have large breasts?
>>739136152kek, you got me
>>739135683Not even the anon who asked. Just observed your intense normalfaggotry and wanted to die.
>>739136320People always say they do, but when the military guys bring the German women here as wives, the boobs are smaller than the Mexican girls. But to be fair, many of the Mexicans are part German.
>>739131927>How hyped are we?Very hyped>What platform are you getting it on?I'm unfortunately going to get the gkc because at least it won't be tied to my account
>>739133523I'm getting both.
>>739136353Watch out anons we got a real gamer here
>>739136353My apologies. What games are you looking forward to?
>>739131927Pretty excited. Getting it on PC for sure.
wait for a salethe game is gonna be 70% story, 30% gameplay
>>739131927>Disgusting fairy voice acting>Tutorial pop ups followed by fairy stating the exact thing you just read>Combat seems piss easy>Mirror light puzzles greatly overstaying their welcome>Expensive as fuck for an indie gameYea nah, i'll be skipping that one.
>>739131927how bad will the localization be
>>739139164>Disgusting fairy voice acting>Expensive as fuck for an indie gameEasily solvable by japanese dub and a pirate hat.
>>739139552ah yes, turn the fairy into an annoying gibberish spouting uWu girl
>>739131927PC of course. Immediately turn of Depth of Field of course. I was extremely burned out from work when Octopath Traveler 0 came out, so I ended up skipping it. This game will give me the HD-2D that I love so much. I wish Yasunori Nishiki was composing this one as well. I hope the OST will be as baller as the Octopath games are
>>739139694Surprisingly she's much less grating in Japanese. Not even just in terms of acting, her tone isn't nearly as piercing.
>>739136353I’m sure a wide variety of stimuli makes you feel that way
I’m excited, the demo was great. Hope we get a Triangle Strategy 2 eventually too
>>739141494>her tone isn't nearly as piercingthat would be a first
>>739131927I'm pretty damn starved for something akin to classic Zelda with some actual production value behind it, so I'll pick it up on PC.
hope this finally puts them out of business so i can stop seeing this "HD2D" vomit in games.
>>739131927I'll play it. There needs to be an option to turn off onahole fairy dialogue. And in general, Team Asano games are pretty bad when it comes to super longwinded writing. You could cut out 30-40% of text in their games without issue. Other than that, I've had fun with the demo.
>>739142607I look forward to whatever bullshit post-game super bosses they cook up, if Octopath's anything to go by.
>>739133523>ZAMN, mouse adventure games look like THAT?
Wrong Elliot to have adventures with
>>739142434cry me a river
>>739131927
>>739131927Elliot is such a stupid fucking name for a person, even more so for a game.Who thought this was a good idea?
>>739131927Asano is neither directing nor producing this game which is why it might actually be good. All the games he has creative control over are mediocre.
>>739146761It sounds cooler in Japanese
>>739146761fuck you nigger
>>739133032meiling incest sex
>>739135448He's more of a tendie, which is arguably worse.
>>739146982He’s playing all the Sony slop too, they just barely release any, so you didn’t notice lol
theyre really going with that name, huh
>>739146761Elliot is literally a better name than Link, you know things are bad when the only time they tried to use the name in the title they abandoned that motif forever. By the time we're Adventures of Elliot 2 you will reflect on how retarded you were.
>>739147287>Elliot is literally a better name than Linkhahaha>By the time we're Adventures of Elliot 2HAHAHAHAHA
>>739133032>enemies that barely reactthis is like every jap action rpg now for some reason
>>739131927>Elliot the millennialYeah checks out.
>>739131927Platform? You mean this isnt a phone game?>
>>739147763That picture is so comical, and she's doing it in earnest lmao.JFC look at that butchered nip.
>>739147763>>739147808kys
>>739147763Has she gotten herself a legmeat sausage surgery yet?
>>739147893Why? What I do?
>>739147953Imagine being a woman and having that bottle sized hunk of worthless meat between your legs Jesus Christ.
>>739141494She sounds bad in Japanese too, just less bad
>>739133032Don't forget the dumbest title for a video game dedicated for the slop enjoyers Octopath fans are
>>739131927Was going to get on switch 2 but, fuck GKC.
>>739148295Now imagine all these women when they reach their 50's.The cope within their heads must be unreal haha
>>739148529I'm conflicted on it. I want a physical copy. Getting it on PS5 just feels weird to me.
>>739139164Not an indie game.
>>739146612cute
>>739147167Wolverine? Being a tendie means liking marvelshit.
>>739150342>the only playstation exclusives for the rest of the year are marvel slop>”i-it’s the tendies!”please seek a mental health professional/knife
>>739133032Try actually playing the demo on hard mode.
>>739150572>persecution complexFound the tendie.
>>739150851In what way was the describing persecution? Are you legitimately retarded?
>>739150963>In what way was the describing persecution?>>739150572>”i-it’s the tendies!”You're more obvious than you think.
>>739151223Yes, that illustrates your schizophrenia connecting completely unrelated things, it does convey any sort of perceived slight or hardship, mentally ill moron
>HD2DFuck off
>>739151730Okay, tendie.
>>739151771:)
>>739151771you go?
>>739131927>2D>>>>>>dogshit>>>>>>HD2D
feet game
I got a $40 gift card on the way. Halp.
>>739133032>aggravating fairy commentaryhonestly this alone put me off wanting to get this game. I slogged through the whole demo listening to that fucking annoying shit, trying to will myself to tolerate it, but nothing doing.you'd have to be an absolute masochist to sit through the english version
>>739152508I’m more interested in Elliot. Could always buy and resell Star Fox, then get Elliot. Though that one will be more replayable as a rail shooter with multiplayer
>>739152609Apparently you can at least reduce the frequency of her interjections in the full game, maybe shut her up entirely
>>739152508One is at least 20-30 hours, the other is 10ish hours if you replay it to get all the routes...New prologue demo is out btw /v/ros
PS5, i refuse to buy a GKC, if there was a Switch 1 version i would go for that
New demo is out, all platforms this time. Prologue Demo, so save data carries over.
>>739131927Fuck square enix. Every subhuman piece of shit at that company deserves to be raped to death for making all their switch 2 games key cards.
>>739131927I see people say it's a Zelda clone but this looks more like Ys to me.
>Elliot Page slaps your gf's assWhat do you?
>>739152713>>739152719Nice, I was very disappointed PC didn't get the chance.
>>739136003>Adventures of ElliotWeakUninterestingCommon nameDoesn't stand out from the crowd>Legend of ZeldaStrongInterest piqued Uncommon nameTrailblazerWhich of the following would you rather play?>Richard's Quest>Aethelred's Odyssey
>>739133523I never cared for the GB/GBA Zelda games. IMO, the only good Zelda games are the first 3 ones (AoL is good for its time) and the 3 most recent ones. Special mention to Wind Waker for being a SOVL overdose, but it's not a good game.
>>739152652OK I might actually buy it if that's true
>>739138704The only games on there that I bothered wishlisting were Star Iliad and Bloodstained.I'm thinking Mewgenics is going to be GOTY and indie GOTY. Yup yup.
>>739148469Oh no, the title totally has a negative effect on the game itself!Also, Octo 2's one of the greats.
>>739147763Posting female nipples is NOT advertiser friendly.
>>739152807It's Mana, specifically the first one for GB (which itself is often compared to Zelda)
>>739153501Octopath Traveler 2 is the single greatest game Squeenix has either made or published this entire decade and we're 55% of the way through the decade.
>>739152938Adventure of Link
>>739153589I personally love their Paranormasight series, but Octopath 2's definitely their best RPG.
(You) are an Expert Gamer™ right?
>>739152713It's a little thing but it's quite annoying when games show you something only to immediately deny it and tell you to get back on the railroad. At the very least block access to the structure, not the damn ladder.
>>739146849truthnooke
>>739153848Silly nitpick, anon. Just take it on the chin and move along. June 18th
>>739153778>>739153589I played octopath one and I didn't like the disjointed stories and it didn't help that they were all mediocre, bat the final boss in the hunter's route that was out of a horror game. didn't help that the game was piss easy too. is the second game actually that good?
>>739152713Neat. I played the demo at my brother's house since I don't have a Switch 2, but I'll play the day before it comes out now.
>>739153969It's pretty much just minor improvements all the way down. Better story telling, better characters, more character interactions, better villains, better music, better combat, better world design...If you came away thinking Octopath 1 was a 7.5/10, you'll probably think Octopath 2 is an 8.5/10. Octopath 2 also has more of that horror theme too.
>>739153501>>739153589Holy sh8 this is literally the thing I'm trying to bait. Octo2fags praising their game without any justification. All the time.>>739153969No, you're right. But I've seen many ppl who disliked OT1 try OT2 and instantly flip the switch. I'm not one of them, it's just marginally better than the 1st game purely because of QoL, but content-wise it's still mediocre.
>>739154103>>739154097I'll grab it on sale then on PC so I can turn off all the dumb effects and enjoy the pixel art.
>>739154103
>>739154103>"Holy sh8! I was literally just trying to b8 praise unironically by insulting it! This is how ba8t works!1 I win somehow!1"Yes, you made your retardation evident the first time; no need to double down.
>>739153969>>739154097>>739154103I wanted to like Octopath, but choosing a “main” character that can never leave your party was such a dogshit mechanic that ruined experimentation and made XP juggling annoying, so I dropped it. If 2 had fixed that, I may have gotten it. Loved Triangle Strategy though
>>739154170Just be aware that there are no purple chests in OT2 so you don't have to grab the Thief until you want to. You also start getting the Advanced Classes earlier, and they're not as broken as the ones in OT1.
>>739154305Nobody is talking about winning, you're making a competition out of nothing
>>739154327>Loved Triangle Strategy thoughSame. Maybe we'll finally get a sequel after Elliot.
>>739154327They can leave your party as soon as you complete their Ch4 quest. You can complete your MC's Ch4 quest before you get your 5th party member if you desired.
>>739154327>>739154385Triangle Strategy is IMO still Asano's best and most original work (despite aping a lil'bit of FFT)
>>739154420Good to know, thanks. Still seems like a very unnecessary mechanic, unless you disagree, having more context than I
>>739154558I could take it or leave it. I picked the Scholar first both times and I did their Ch4s a little overleveled. I think when I replayed OT2 I'll try doing the first 4 characters' Ch4s before moving on to the second set of 4.
>>739152807It's defeinitely more like Ys, but /v/ is mostly casuals and tendies so they think Zelda invented that style of game. When a game has abilities and multiple weapons instead of Zelda style tools and dungeons, it's taking after Falcom games, not Nintendo ones.
>>739131927BUYING ON STEAM TO PLAY ON MY STEAM DECK OLED. DOCKED AT HOME WITH MY STEAM CONTROLLER 2 AND WITH ME ON THE GO WHEN IM AT WORK.
>finally a demo on steamokay, niggers. I'm giving you another try
>>739154782Anon your capslock?
>>739132291gkc means pc wins imo. especially now that we're seeing old cheaper 3DS cartridges no longer working(including previously unopened games).
>HD-2D without all the obnoxious aftereffectsSE finally learned how to make this style look good.
>This gender-neutral HEBREW name means "the Lord is my God" and is an English and Scottish variant of the biblical name Elijah, who was a propheti will not buy this jewish slop
>>739156425You're a fucking retard. Its an anglicized version of a biblical name. You know, like most White names?
>>739156518>yeah dude it's a name of brownoid middle eastern origin, 100% white & western!!!kek what a clueless shabbos goy
>>739156769weak attempt at ragebait. I guarantee you if you have a common anglo name it is Hebrew in origin because of The Bible
>>739156816my name is Richard, yeah it's kinda lame but it's 100% white Germanic name unlike goyim title bestowed upon you by your crosskike parents
>>739156425Today I learned Israel is actually in Scotland?
>>739156425Thanks for saving me 79.99, based knower. Shan't be buying.
>>739156985>100% white Germaniclmao at this mutt
>>739157104Nothing you say is going to get me to ever buy the game now so you can stop trying whenever you're ready little buddy
>>739157104>Richard is predominantly a masculine name of Germanic origin, meaning "brave ruler" or "strong leader."so tell us what's your gentile name anon?
>>739156985>my name is RichardAdventures of Dick
>>739157250More like Dickard.
>>739131927is this the one that takes place in fantasy philadelphia?
>>739157228
>>739157228No one cares what you buy or don't buy, Richard
>oh cool a new JRPG>it's not a JRPG>it's action slop???Even octopath likes are getting the ff15 treatment? Have they learned nothing from E33?It's エリオット not Elliot btw
>>739157302More like Lil Dicky
>>739157407It is an RPG though
>>739157431No it's a Soulslike
>>739157465Are you retarded?
>>739157465Its an action RPG in the vein of Ys or Mana Mina the Hollower on the other hand is a soulslike
who is Asano
>>739131927So does this actually play like a Zelda game?
>>739156985>100% Germanic>not Angloyou aren't white
>>739148639Let's not forget the grotesquely maimed limb they cut the flesh from. Fuck.
>>739138704Verdant? seriously? stop nigger loving goy
>>739157545Its like a mix of Zelda with Mana
>>739153623The Legend of Elliot
>>739146893Erriot?
>>739157545it's a mix of Zelda and final fantasy adventures
>Get hit during the greatsword boss>Lose the drop bonus>Reloading the save doesn't restore the bonusDang. Has anyone beaten the boss hitless with a drop bonus active? Does it drop anything more than 40 magicite shards?
>>739157517Creator of Oyasumi Punpun
>>739158264I did go back with a one star drop bonus and can confirm that I still got 40 shards, so I don't think your drop bonus effects boss drops. At least not story-related ones.
So why does this button exist again if it doesn't do anything?The NPCs are also lifeless as fuck just standing there doing an A-pose.
>>739154327>Loved Triangle Strategy thoughMy brother from another fucking mother. Easily one of my favorite TRPGs.
>>739157407Ys is older than you brownie zoomoid
>>739159083>the falcom sloppers come out of the woodworkDid you run out of asset flips to play?
>>739158825There's platforming in dungeons, and you can jump over rough or dangerous terrain like tall grass or the poisonous marsh.
>>739157550Anglos are Germanic you illetare jeet
>>739135486>Magicite is, in fact, set per weapon>Magicite is the default option in the pause menu so swapping individual effects is also fasterWow, they fixed it completely. It's great now.
>>739131927This looks really nice. I'm downloading the demo right now.
>>739131927>wow nice music for an indie game>who is asano?>published by square enixso it won't get any advertising or funding or technical help sell 500 copies all to keep forcefully funneling everybody back onto their dead Final Fantasy horse until they quit or dieimpressive how badly square enix continue to sabotage the industry
>>739131927I'm getting Chrono Trigger vibes from this game.
>>739159803>It still uses the gacha system for obtaining them>Getting duplicates gives one (1) fragment>Even if you find it in a chest somewhereThis part still sucks, though.
>>739159420>illetarefell for the bait award + irony award
Pic related makes a cameo, so I will buy your game.
>>739131927>0:39>video tutorial of a puzzle mechanic before you're close enough to touch itFuck experimentation and figuring things out on your own I guess
Kek at this shill thread. Dead on arrival.See (You) in the Steam chart threads.
>>739133032>I finished a game that isn't out yetGet off of my board you brown retards.
>>739160147do you have to buy dlc or something like that to see her?
Does it have a JP language option or is it region separated?
The demo was pretty fun, so I'm definitely getting it.
>>739153554>jpgOne of the best games ever made.
>60 bucks for 2DHDslopDoa
>>739160313As far as I know, a small cameo if you have save data from Trials of Mana, full game or demo.
>>739133315Same but I think of Elliot Moose because I'm a leaf.
>>739159517SEX!!
>>739160515As much as Riesz is the fan favorite, I can't help but think it's specifically a Trials of Mana save bonus and not Visions because Visions isn't on Switch.
>>739159517Where are her shoes?
>>739161378Why would something that flies need shoes?
>>739161414Her feet still get cold, don’t they?
>>739160515>small cameo if you have save data from Trials of Mana, full game or demodamn that sucks I don't have a mana save file
>>739161474Well why arent you asking where her gloves are?
>>739161132Well its also a joke on how the main character is called Elliot, and Riesz' brother is also called Elliot.
>>739133032You lost to Japanese pussyYour only love in life is a race-traitorGET FUCKED
>>739133315>not thinking of the SUPREME GENTLEMANnot sure if you anons are weird. Or I am the one that is weird
>>739133032fpbp
>>739131927>take pixel art game>add a bunch of awful postprocessing effects and fog to make it look worse on purposeskip for me. Also the voice acting sounds REALLY annoying and the name sounds like some random shovelware.
>70 dollars>denuvocan see the flop coming for miles
>>739162687>denuvoand it gets removed months later
>>739131927PC. Also sex with the faerie.
>>739139694Outing yourself as a faggot who doesn't like cute faerie kids.
>>739152350Do you think she wears panties or bloomers? Or is she like the Hatena Yousei?
>>739159517>I browse this board with faggots who don't find this character boner-inducing
>>739131927Looks good, I'm going to get it, maybe not on release tho
The chain scythe sold me on itHope they took my feedback to heart though
>>739131927why the fuck isn't this coming out on switch 1? I fucking hate Nintendo
>that namewhoever comes up with these names is one of the major reasons these games are flops
>>739131927I wonder if he'll show up in Cotc.
>>739158825It feels good. I cannot tell you how much time I've spent aimlessly jumping about Disgaea hubs just for the hell of it.
>>739131927Great game It's just like ALTTP
>>739159517Cute onahole
>The Millenium Tale(s)they think this gonna be successful enough to be a series lmao
>>739164793worked with octopath
>>739164793It will be. Elliott is the new Link.
>>739131927>How hyped are we? 0>What platform are you getting it on?Would not even pirate it after playing the demo.>>739133032>All these seething replies People with dogshit taste will never admit that the game is bad because they're too busy sucking off Asano and his ugly HD-2D graphics where a 28 year old game looks way fucking better than this abomination. Anyone reading this should play pic related (and it's sequel), Zelda, Mana games, anything and just see how they're all better than this game. He should stick to Octopath games because that's one of the few Square Enix games that are good.
>>739165378>after playing the demoDid you at least play it all the way through? I just got the ice area (it's after the dungeon in the video) and things seem to have ramped up already with the wolf enemies and interconnecting caves along the cliffs.
>>739163694as long as they speak the only language you need, English, you can be cute and or a kid, I don't give a rat fuck.
>>739152807The music and artstyle reminds me of ys immediately. But how many people played those games? let's be real.
>>739152713>New prologue demowutI thought the demo already released a couple months ago.
>>739132291Don't forget free cloud saves on pc
>>739167164Different demo, put out so the devs can collect feedback. This demo represents the final game, and can have it's save transferred to it.
>>739147763Apparently she plays Achilles in the new Odyssey movie, which is fucking hilarious. It's like if she was cast as Thor in the Marvel movies.
>>739162145Don't worry, you're not alone
>>739159517she'll be a good girl ,right?
>>739165378nigga, we are THIRSTING for classic zelda-likes. alundra is based, but it's old and we already played it. alabaster dawn is EA, mina is just bloodborne 2D. this game is the only alternative for us.
>>739159517Will you still love her true human sized adult woman form?
>>739147638Not in Ys, they'll kick your ass in that game.
Someone PLEASE tell me the fairy is the love interest.
>>739172314Are newer Ys games like that?
>>739131927>Zelda but we tell you how to complete the puzzleamazing
>>739142607The fire boss is lifted directly from Ys lmao
>>739172419Do you not see the other chick in the background bro
>>739131927Pretty hyped. I liked the dual controls between the 2 main characters using the 2D Zelda formula
>>739152938>Which of the following would you rather play?whichever has the better gameplay. I haven't played a game based on the label in decades
>>739139164>indie
>Falcom stopped making Ys so now Square has to What timeline is this?
>>739172314>Not in Ys, they'll kick your ass in that game.Fodder enemies literally just stand aroundWhy is /v/ full of butter nitpickers? You just bitch and complain instead of hoping it’s gonna be good>waah waah it isn’t exactly like old game and even if it was I’d still bitch and complainThen you wonder why every major release is a fortnite clone or gachaslop
>>739172625Been that way since OoT and Navi.

>>739156985>RichardYeah and I bet your last name is Cranium
>>739132573I really am sick of the game key card meme. I love to collect physical games, im almost considering getting a Playstation to get the games that are key card only.
>>739131927>>739132291is this coming out on PC? i really like the link to the past + octopath aesthetic it has
fairies are not for lewd
>>739131927>https://x.com/Stealth40k/status/2056383813635240091his grunts even sounds like Link
>>739165378I hate Asano and have never bought a 2DHD game. I've played all the Zeldas and Alundra and some Mana and Ys games. The demo was great and the difficulty is well balanced on hard. The handholdly stuff wasn't really in the Switch demo so that goes away early. You're dumb.
>>739169273This is a Falcom-like, silly tendie.
>>739131927Thinking Switch 2 so I can play outback next to the fire pit. I really gotta get a steam deck or something at some point
honestly. looks rather..charming?wish it was a bit cheaper though
>>739153554You can even see Elliot behind the protagonist in this jpg
>>739153554>It's Manai guess that explains Riesz's cameo
>>739164306None of the Various Daylife characters showed up in that yet.
>>739131927>dogshit pixel game>this will be $70 + tipAnd Square Enix wonders why they're not relevant anymore lmao
>>739133032Jarpiggers don't like challenge, they want an anime where you have to press a button for the next dialog.When they even get a hint of future challenge, they freak out and immediately search for ways to break the game before they even start - grinding in the starting area for hours, looking up cheese strats like playing cards or hitting your own party members - all to avoid the off chance an enemy might not die in one hit later on. Then of course they bitch the game is brokenNot because it allowed them to do this, but because they felt forced to do this in order to avoid the potential difficulty. They are mad at any game that presents the threat of challenge, on principle.
>>739179084Yes they are. Even more so when they are child-coded.
>>739182118Does e33 have cute loli faerie feet? Yeh I didn't think so.
>>739131927>it's all very reminiscent of Zelda in a good way.>in a good waywhat kind of retarded statement is this?this also looks nothing like zelda, its clearly inspired by ys games, and if it isn't then all they did was come to the same fucking conclusion as the ys games.
>>739131927>What platform are you getting it on?Switch 2.
>>739131927This game looks really good. It is 16-bit nostalgiafaggotry, but modern! I am booting up the demo right now.
>>739182658Probably because not many people played Ys compared to Zelda.
>>739182658You see absolutely no similarities between Ys and Zelda?? Are you an actual autist?Ever since the first game, Ys has been basically "what if Zelda but with RPG mechanics". Ys X even apes BOTW/TOTK's art style.
>tutorial demo is easyWoahhhhh
>>739182303>He says while people proceed to look up OP strats in Souls and WRPGsIf there are 10 people screeching about "difficulty" only 2 of them actually want to engage in it. The other 8 are pathetic larpers.
>>739131927>switch 2 only>pc with denuvocant play
>>739131927why isnt this on Switch 1?
>>739182962they were separate clauses, its very strange to not just say similar to zelda, but similar to zelda in a good way, its just like lmaoreally no confidence in what ur saying?and then that the game looks very much ysI don't think the zelda comparison is strange, just that its clearly more inspired by ys than zelda and doesn't really look like most zelda games but looks WAY more like zelda games.its visually similar to the 2d zelda titles, but they are also 2d and actually 2d, not 3d like this, its far closer to ys>>739182964lmao retard

>>739186306Sup nigger
>>739173945Bloomers spotted
>>739185556It's more like if I'm forced to get it digital either way I might as well go with the platform that is literally designed for it with way more benefits like refunds or mod support
>>739182303Back in my day nobody cared about how you play your game and people paid for cheats. And they had fun cheating. Actually people still have fun cheating and it is just normie scum tourists that insist everything has to be a job you have to get good at.
>>739189152Wut? You can literally sell game-key cards games or even buy them used. That is infinitely better than Steam.
>>739182303>t.man who has never played a single JRPG in his lifeWRPG cucks are the most insecure faggots in gaming.
Holy fuck, how long is this demo? I've been playing for 2 hours.
>>739167937I mean, they weren't too far off from Elliot Thor...
>>739190641That's no good. If you had bought the game, you would've been unable to get a refund by that point
>>739190641I thought it would end after the first boss, but it just keeps on going. lolI'm playing on hard, which it is mildly challenging and not piss easy like Zelda. Very nice.
Combat feels really fucking limiting. It's 2026 where are the fucking melee combos? Does it expand later? It feels like an 80's Zelda game, and not in a good way.
>>739133032But enough about Skyward Sword.
The princess is a fucking yapper. Does she have nothing better to do?
>>739184082For me its bottom right guy
>>739190040>That is infinitely better than Steam.It isn't. If you're poor enough to need to sell a game you can just pirate it on PC.
>>739190946You VILL get a console radial menu, one attack, and one charged attack, and you vill like it.
Just learned the game is 70 bucks?? Okay nevermind
>>739190946What kinda combos would you like, anon? Genuinely curious since I don't play many modern games like that
>>739192663I have no response to this. You are literally retarded. Jesus Christ
>>739131927It would be nice to actually play an HD2D game, but I'm still sour from it being the closing title of the Nintendo Direct. Holy shit.
>>739182964>Ever since the first game, Ys has been basically "what if Zelda but with RPG mechanics"No, Ys has been a continuation of Falcom's action RPGs that predate the Zelda series. Dumb tendie.
>>739131927I've been playing for two hours and so far I am very impressed. I think I will buy it. I've never played Ys, which others have mentioned, but this game feels like a mix of Final Fantasy and Zelda to me.
>>739177710Yes
more le nostalgia gfx slop
>>739182658>clearly inspired by ys gamesIt not. It's inspired by FF adventures.
>>739193572What a sensitive faggor

>>739195657What makes a good companion in your opinion?
Bruh this nigga nae Elliot
>>739150689I played it on extreme, faggot.
>>739190946>Game has 15 different movesets>People just gravitate to the flashy crit moveset even if its damage isnt all that good
the title fucking sucks
How long is the demo?
>>739196313Longer than you'd expect.
>>739131927All the advanced reviews are coming out and everyone is praising it, nary a single criticism. Make of that what you will.
>>739196232My take is that "Elliot" is just as foreign sounding to Japan as "Link" so the name sounds the same to them as "Adventures of Link" while to the west it sounds more like "The Adventures of Bob" or something extremely generic and non-heroic.
>>739184423>Decide to get Steam version instead>denuvowow it's fucking nothing, get over yourself
>>739196426Paid shills, obviously.
>>739196373I’d expect three hours so is it longer than that?
>>739196498I think a better comparison would be Tina and Terra.
>>739196520Doesn't seem to be at all, apparently the devs have taken a lot of feedback from those who played the demo. They've already fixed up the advanced copy these reviewers are playing, having gave the character faster movement, and made the fairy talk less.
When you think the title is stupid just remember SE also released games called Triangle Strategy and Bravely Default or fucking Final Fantasy
>>739192027you can turn her yapping down in the settings
>>739196426>reviewsThis isn't the 90s. You can go look up gameplay on youtube whenever you want.
>>739195601It just feels extremely safe and plain. I'd get into Octopath though.
>>739196715I want to hear reviewer's critique it. This is 2026 and you don't have to appraise games by hand.
Just finished the demo. It was really fun. It felt a little too easy at first, so I bumped it up to hard and had a good time experimenting with different magicite and weapons. I agree with this anon >>739165594 there is a noticeable jump in challenge once you reach the ice area. I'm still conflicted about how I'll buy this. I don't want a gkc, but getting it digitally sounds lame too.
>>739196591I think it being the title is what makes it sound so weird. Yeah the west would think Tina doesn't sound heroic like Terra, but it wasn't like it was called Final Fantasy: Tina's Quest. For this game, it was just "Millennium Tale" this whole reaction that Elliot is weird name wouldn't be nearly as large.
This game looks very fun but I have Ys Oath of Felghana to finish first.
>>739196715>fairy>in an asano game>she can't help but feel she's forgetting something importantShe's gonna be the final boss.
>>739197036>Elliot is weird[ly normal] name
>>739197036Yeah, just calling it Millennium Tales would be better. Elliot in massive font on the cover. I think they want people to refer to the game as Elliot.Its also crazy how often the name Elliot is said throughout the game. I switched to the japanese dub and you hear it even more. Even when the english script doesn't have it in the sentence they are still saying "Errioto" constantly
>don't want to deal with the fps drops that the studio somehow always has on switch versions because it is an action game>don't want to pay anywhere near full price for digital pcI'll bet it a few months later for 20€.
>>739133315Scrubs spinoff?
>>739195846He's a retarded gooner
>>739197302>I'll bet it a few months later for 20€.I'm hoping for this with the gkc version
>that priceHoly shit there's no fucking way this game is worth that, I would even bet there's not even half the content in this compared to indies like Hollow Knight. Why do they send these clearly low budget games out to die like this
>>739198734>50+ hour JRPG won't have as much content as a 15-20 hour metroidvaniaRetard
>>739197091The last time a Square Enix game had a loli sidekick mascot she ended up being the main villain so it wouldn't be surprising. Then she'll come back for the post-game but this time she'll stay your friend.
>>739199092nta, but is the game 50 hours long? That's promising if it is
>>739198554What's she doing here? Oh wait, Elliot's her brother, haha I get it. Funny joke Square.
>>739199745Faie that much bigger than the other fairy?
>>739200123I think she's just closer to the camera?
>>739198520Oh yeah physical can also drop really hard. The Mana rom collection released at 60€ but 3 months later I checked amazon and got it for sub 20€.
>>739200123I wouldn't doubt Faie is larger, but not by that much. That's obviously a perspective thing.
>>739199745I've never played Bravely Default but that fairy is pretty hot
>>739200342>he doesn't knowheh.
>>739131927Why does he dress like a Red Mage?
>>739131927I had no idea it got a new demo with new gameplay.The OP should have enlightened me. The new demo is way better than the first demo.
>>739131927Octopath Traveler is such abysmal dogshit. But this looks decent.
>>739200710I made the thread before the new demo was announced. I tried to rectify it here >>739152713
>>739189152>with way more benefits like refunds or mod supportThen ask yourself if denuvo outweighs potential mods. Also there's not much point in counting refunds as a pro for a game that has a demo, steam only lets you use an hour of playtime before your right to refund ends.
>>739200486I know that she's like evil and she lies but she's still hot (unless she transforms into like a hag later idk)
You guys are playing on Very Hard, right
>>739199092>50 hour 2D action game with basic combat, braindead enemies/puzzles and irritating charactersSounds like torture
>>739201320>I hate the genreCool, nobody cares
>game is $60 on the nintnedo eshop>is for some reason sold for the equivalent of $80 in swedenWhat? This isn't the case with other games. Other games sold for $60, including other Square Enix games, are cheaper. Lame.
so bros, now that the consensus is that the demo rocks. how long is the game gonna be? any infos?
>>739177465that's exactly what my playstation is for. FUCK GKC
Am I the only person that doesn't like "play the first hour of the game" demos? Like I don't wanna be spoiled. Only demo I played like that was Stellar Blade, but only because I think it unlocked a costume for the full game. Wish more games did demos like FFXV where it was it's own thing.
>>739201942this is like the first 3 hours. I kind of regret playing it because it was really fun and now I have to wait a month to continue.
>>739201942I don't as well which is why I'm not going to play the new demo
>>739201942i wouldn't mind so much if it was like a week before the game actually launched instead of a month
>>739201942I only tolerate them if the save file transfers over
>>739200909he he he
>>739202271Ehhh, puberty happens
>>739131927Can someone please explain to me why English voice acting has gotten so much worse? It genuinely wasn't this atrocious before.
>>739203083Japanese is gibberish so you don't know how bad it is.
>>739189152>le mod supportA lot of these games dont get mods or if they do, most of them are lazy shit.
>>739203083seems fine to me
>>739198734>10 hour game where you die so much it balloons to 50 hoursyikes
>>739202480She does transform back into a hot fairy but human-sized in the final ending anyway.
>>739202271
>Releasing the game during the busiest gaming month It’s gonna flop because of se’s retarded marketing
>>739203083I feel like its particularly subpar in these HD2D games. Its not terrible, but can be distracting. I switched to the japanese dub
>>739203254This is just cope, I recently finished FFX for the first time and despite some awkward deliveries, it was pretty good. Kingdom Hearts also have great English voice acting and then 3 was bafflingly subpar.
>>739203453>june>busiest gaming monthwhat else is even coming out in june

>>739204353>she only shows up at the end of the demoI'm fucking pissed
>>739206838bravely default pretends to be a heckin wholesome FF throwback but is unironically written like a vita kusoge with all of the fanservice just localized out and its biggest selling point is the twist ending that you have to grind through the same events multiple times to seebravely second is actually just bad, basically shitting all over everything remotely interesting the first game does while having significantly worse writing and music in exchange for more balanced jobs and nothing else going for it.
>>739204963Would
>>739207094And Bravely Default II is just a really fun FFlike with very good character chapter writing but no proper endgame to really challenge how insane you can get from the class system.

>>739201942If the save data transfers to the main game then I like them. I usually wait until a day or two before release and then play it since it's essentially just starting the game a little early.
>>739203553>Kingdom Hearts also have great English voice acting and then 3 was bafflingly subpar.It's less the actual acting and more how the scenes are directed. Sonic has gone through a similar struggle.Look at the scene in SA2 of Sonic first meeting Shadow. The snappy editing, the dynamic camera angles, the overall pacing, is really tight and nicely done for the time. Then you look at the scene in Sonic Forces where Sonic first meets Infinite. The pacing is really awkward and clunky, the shots are flat and boring, and the editing has no real rhythm or dynamism to it.Similarly, look at the Sora vs. Roxas scene in KH2 and compare it to any of the Keyblade Graveyard scenes in KH3. Everything in KH3 is so weightless and boring. The characters move like they're on the moon, the editing and pacing are slow and clunky. There are all these awkward pauses for dialogue, as if the game has to take a second to load their lines or some shit. Compared to KH2 where there's more dynamism and emotion in the shot of Sora and Roxas' first clash than there is in most of the Keyblade Graveyard scenes in their entirety.The voice acting in all these games is cheesy and not particularly good, but the way the scenes are directed gives them weight and impact anyway.

I’ll be honest I was kinda excited for this game but the demo is so shit Elliot is insufferable but the princess is cute I like her constant blabber mouth

>>739131927Looks like Napishtim era Ys at a glance, but the gameplay is totally different. Gonna try the demo first.
>In an interview with JPGames, The Adventures of Elliot producer Naofumi Matsushita revealed that the team was aiming for something akin to Final Fantasy Adventure on the Game Boy, otherwise known as Sword of Mana. “As I mentioned earlier, the gameplay feel we were aiming for was inspired by the Mana series, particularly the Game Boy version of FINAL FANTASY ADVENTURE,” Matsushita told the outlet, “so I hope players will be able to experience the unique kind of enjoyment that has grown out of that foundation.”https://nintendowire.com/news/2026/05/19/the-adventures-of-elliot-producer-states-dev-team-was-aiming-for-final-fantasy-adventure-rather-than-zelda-with-gameplay/
>>739213925Yep, gameplay is slower than Ys. Closer to Mana, spot on.
Getting the distance right on a charged boomerang or hitting an enemy with it when they're backed to a wall is euphoric as fuck. They just get shredded
>Restart.run: What's it like revealing Elliot alongside the demo? How has getting immediate feedback changed the course of development? Anything you've been surprised to see from fans?>Naofumi Matsushita: From the development team’s perspective, we’ve received a great deal of positive feedback from players both in Japan and overseas. We feel there is strong demand for many of the core game systems, and that players are largely satisfied with those elements. Regarding detailed adjustments and requests, we carefully reviewed the feedback we received.>In particular, we made several menu-related improvements, such as separating the map open and close buttons, allowing players to access the magicite menu immediately without navigating additional layers, and increasing the protagonist’s base movement speed, all with the goal of improving overall quality of life. In addition, by adding a total of four difficulty options including Easy and Very Hard, we aimed to make the full version of the game accessible to a broader range of players.>As for feedback that surprised us, it would probably be the requests to reduce the frequency of Faie’s dialogue (that she talks too much). Since we had been involved with the game’s development for such a long time, we had naturally grown very fond of Faie ourselves, and in hindsight I think we may have become a little biased because of that. We’ve since added an option that allows players to lower the frequency of her dialogue, so if it’s something that concerns you, we hope you’ll make use of it.
>>739214174>Restart.run: In games like The Legend of Zelda, Navi and your companions are typically passive, while in Elliot, Fae takes a much more active role in combat. When was it decided that Fae would fill this role and how has that changed the way you think about exploration and level design?>Matsushita: From a very early stage, we knew we wanted to include a partner character, and that she would be a fairy. We also decided she would have five unique abilities, so her role in the gameplay was defined fairly quickly. As development went on, we expanded her role further by having her praise the player in various ways through her voiced lines.>Since action games often involve the protagonist progressing alone in solitude, we wanted to make the journey feel more lively and engaging. That’s one aspect that really evolved over the course of development.>Even during exploration, once you reach a point where an area has been sufficiently explored, Faie will call out to let you know. We adjusted her role so that she could effectively serve as a support character for both Elliot and the player.>To go into a bit more detail, tuning her voice lines in relation to the level design required accounting for a wide range of scenarios, making it particularly challenging to refine up until the very end. However, we were ultimately able to bring everything together successfully and deliver a result we’re confident in.
>>739214236>Restart.run: Elliot feels less rigid in its exploration than something like an Octopath Traveler. Faie's warp ability leaves a lot of room for improvisation, as well as the Magicite system. Can you walk me through a bit of the design philosophy of Elliot and how you decide what boundaries the players can push and what lines need to be set in stone?>Matsushita: We began by building the game’s world, and as part of that process, we created what the development team refers to as landmarks (dungeons featuring key attractions) in each region, then layered the story onto them. The narrative is designed so that players don’t need to visit every landmark in every era; instead, they’ll naturally encounter them when they become relevant in a given era.>This allowed us to position the remaining areas as optional detours: players can choose to explore them or skip them entirely. If they do choose to visit, they’ll receive small benefits that make their journey a bit easier. We approached the design with that clear distinction in mind.>Since the overworld maps were created fairly early on, all that was left was to play through the game from start to finish to get a feel for it. As we progressed, we reviewed and provided direction on puzzle-solving strategies and boss battle tactics.
>>739214284>Restart.run: Does making an action game instead of a turn-based RPG change the way you need to think about the art and environment? How does the physical space - objects like buildings and set dressing - change the way you develop and think about your environments?>Matsushita: In regard to how the art and environments in the game were developed, I don’t think we went into the process with any particular elements or things to avoid just because The Adventures of Elliot is an action game and not a turn-based RPG.>As the event scenes gradually came together and we were able to see the sprite characters moving in-game to a certain extent, we started thinking about ideas like incorporating standing character illustrations by Kajimoto-san. Our decisions were always based on what kind of game we wanted The Adventures of Elliot to be and what kinds of challenges we wanted to take on.>As for the buildings and backgrounds, when we established the world setting for each era, we had the art team create visuals for how those eras should look, and then incorporated those designs into the game itself.>Regarding the field design, Claytechworks was able to leverage the experience they gained working with us on Bravely Default II, and from a very early stage they created playable mock-ups even before the actual designs had been implemented. Their sense for spatial layout and placement of key locations really stood out.>I remember initially wondering if the mock-up environments might be slightly too large, but once the proper designs were added, everything fit perfectly, and I was genuinely impressed.>Because the fields were completed relatively early, it was also extremely helpful to be able to test the gameplay feel directly once the scenario elements were implemented.https://www.restart.run/articles/the-adventures-of-elliot-the-millennium-tales-producer-talks-about-surprising-demo-feedback
>>739182118Not $70 + Good game with great pixel art.Wouldn't expect a MaelleFag to have taste, though.
>>739182303Hitting your own party members was never a cheese strat. The game was actively designed to counter such a strategy because most bosses and late game enemies start using attacks that deal a percentage of your total HP instead of a flat numbers. You're fucked either way.
>>739214174>As for feedback that surprised us, it would probably be the requests to reduce the frequency of Faie’s dialogueHow have Japanese developers STILL not caught onto the fact that people hate when the obligatory sidekick character talks too much? It's a constant complaint, especially when it's the same limited voice lines repeated. They still don't fucking get it.
>>739213925yeah it was obvious the chain scythe and the red mage inspired look
>>739215010I'll never understand myself what it is about Japs and being surprised that people hate hateworthy annoying shit in games. Like are they just conditioned in Japan to like that kind of shit?Granted the English VA here makes the situation about 10x worse than it should be. I feel fucking physical pain listening to that retard cutesy English Faye voice
>>739215010they explain it was their own bias and did something with the feedback at least
>>739215249Spoken like someone who's never created anything in his life.
>Square Enix has revealed that you can rescue cats for rewards in The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, which is coming to both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.>“No matter the era, Philabieldia is filled with cats,” the publisher explains. If Elliot finds one, he can take it under his wing to bring it to a cat-fancying traveler in town who will reward Elliot for the number of cats he’s collected. Afterward, Elliot can care for and play with any cats he’s brought back.”>When you hear a cat’s meow during your adventure, you can search your immediate surroundings to locate it. The rewards that you receive will include helpful items, like those that will help you to find more cats or increase the number of arrows and bombs that Elliot can carry.>You can bond with the cats that you bring back to town from a selection of fish, meat and cheese. Each cat has different tastes, and filling them up on the flavours that they prefer will make them like you more. Once a cat has sufficiently bonded with you, you can invite them to the orphanage, where you can play with cat toys purchased from the item shop.
>>739215436Weird.
>>739207918I have played enough Japanese games to know that you will eventually gain an ability to talk to the cats. The fact that human voice actors are pronouncing the cat meows is kind of a dead giveaway.
>>739207918Team Asano are catfags. I’m pretty sure the Cait sages in champions of the continent are based off the developers cats
How long is the demo? I've been playing for five hours already. lol
>>739215436I'm kind of tired of this forced "wholesome chungus" shit where every game needs to have "pets that you can pet the pet of course this will sell our game". It feels super artificial.
>>7392159855 hours and 4 minutes
How's the new demo? I'm going to get the game so I don't want to play the demo. Did they fix the menu? I remember it being a clusterfuck on the first demo.
>>739216139The demo save will carry over to the final game, so try it out yourself.
>>739216139It is fine and reacts very snappy. I have seen a lot worse.
>>739216397I know but I don't want to play the first few hours then wait a few weeks just to play the rest of it
>>739216139They've made some changes.It's just the beginning of the final game, and the save transfers, so no big deal playing it now.
The portraits and mouth flaps are really nice in this game. Did they do that for the other hd2d games? Can’t remember
>>739216524So don't. You know you don't have to complete the whole demo, right?
These games always have at least one particularly stilted va. it was Serenoa in Triangle Strategy, and here it is the princess
>>739215985Five hours? Is there really that much to do or are you just taking your sweet time with everything?
>>739215436I love kittiesI love rescuing cute creaturesgonna 100% it
>>739142607do you parry each of these individually? if so, I'm sold
>>739142607There is a minimal chatter option
>>739217791You don't parry in this game, he guarded here, the deflection was made automatically.
>>739218013pretty sure there is a parry though
>>739218013>>739218042and it looks like he isnt losing guard points, which might indicate parry?
>>739207918It's the studios thing, in Triangle Strategy you can find cats in every hub level and there's even a collectible if you speak to every cat in the game
>>739218129It looks to me that he does, it's too hard to say with that damn background being the almost same color.If there's parrying it's probably tied to those enchantment stones, though I hope there isn't.
>>739218327There is a parry mechanic, and you don't need anything special to do it besides a sense of timing.
>>739218327this is also a clear parry, give up bro
>>739199745So they acknowledge Various Daylife.
the writing in this is so fucking bad. people stating things that everyone present know, etc. shit like king needing to explain to his daughter and advisors what his forefathers creed is and basic shit. its sign of a bad writer where they are just info dumping. princess saying shit like 'oh hes an adventurer so he can go through the beast tribes kingdoms' like every fucking person there would know. its just shitty writing. then you have childish shit like elliot being amazing adventurer, but he has to go fucking find a comb on a beach. just let me go on an adventure without this childish writing. its like something a teenage girl woudl write for an english essay.
>>739218505it's gotta be unluck or only effective against specific enemies? I cant parry anything yet at the demo
>>739218682an unlock*
What kinda white boy name is Elliot kek so embarrassing
What kinda nigger post was thatkek so embarrassing
>>739215996You would have hated Chrono Trigger.
>>739219231>would haveI do. Single most overrated JRPG ever created. One of the most overrated video games ever created.
>>739159517denuvo vs onahoevoices talking to me
Did the cat who just stole my wallet lick its butthole?
All the girls look ugly. None will top anything from Octopath
jesus christ this princess is modern narrator meme personified. 'youre going the wrong way' 'the door is locked there must be a switch nearby!' 'the door opened we need to go in' 'maybe we can move that block onto a switch'. its obnoxious as fuck.
>>739215436>and Nintendo Switchnice. emulation it is then
>>739147763el penor XD
>>739219943No, there's no Switch 1 version.
>>739219802>not wanting to fuck the orphanage milfgay
>>739220036it does look nice on the pc. as did octo2 at 4k and some light graphics modding. never got the hate for 2dhd.
>>739220228Generally it's people who don't like seeing pixels in their 3D environments.
>>739220437>2D in 3D environmentplayed bunch of games like those growing up with the ps1. maybe thats why i like it.
>>739220586Yeah, same here.
>>739219284Being a contrarian does not make you cool or interesting.
>>739220751nta, but I agree, it is overrated. don’t be such a little bitch that it upsets you to heat
aww baby's first samefag
To think this thread managed to reach bump limit. Looks i'm not the only excited for this game after all.
