are you gonna a) get it at releaseb) wait for a salec) never touch it
>>739403869I'm debating whether to buy now or wait for a sale
>>739403869Always B
>>739403952ThisGame looks good though
>>739403939OP here, same foralso - this is not a drill - nekomimis are CANON
>>739403939>>739404506Same here. Loved the demo, but I'll wait for reviews
>>739404568yeah, I won't pay 60 eurobucks for a 20 hour dialogue-fest
>>739404506>all the cats you find are actually your ancestors
>everyone complaining about how the princess never shuts upSo like does nobody go through a game's settings anymore?
>>739403869>horrible graphics>insanely simplistic gameplay>shit level design>obnoxious writing>the princess won't shut her whore mouthI'm thinking C.
>>739405345People really are fucking retarded, aren't they?
>>739403869im gonna watch grandpa play it
>>739403869uhh where's the pirate it option?
>>739405568denuvo, switch 2 only
>>739403869Buying day one
>>739403869this looks like a video game you would see a cartoon character playing
>>739405657>Denuvodid you not see the other day1 crack thread?
>>739403869why do fairies hate wearing shoes?
>>739403869Either 2 or 3, though 3's unlikely since I downloaded the demo, I just haven't gotten around to playing it yet.
>>739405568Voices is getting faster.
>>739405473he didin't even finish the demo because he said engagement was too low (and also chat complained almost the whole time)
>>739405817>he said engagement was too lowI have literally never once in my 15 years of watching Vinny heard him say he's gonna not play something due to lack of engagement.
>>739405817link?
>>739403869What is this? Post Gameplay.
>>739403869I'll get it after I finish Rebirth.Not a great idea to release them on the same month.
>>739405945In the time it took you to make this post you could've looked up a trailer on youtube.
>>739405917>>739405945https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfrVa1mSVxg
>>739405891>>739405917I am being 100% serious. I was looking forward to him playing the game but he quit about an hour and a half inhttps://youtu.be/mfrVa1mSVxg?t=6204
>>739406028>It's a matter of what do people actually want to seeI'm sure yet another Chrono Trigger playthrough or yet another RimWorld playthrough or yet another run of some indie rougelike deckbuilder slop is definitely what the people are clamoring for.
>>739406028He sounds so defeated
>>739406028>>739406006Vinny will talk about audience engagement and a lack of interest in the games himself and then continue to actively ignore playing shit like Yakuza which everyone knows he and his viewers would love.
>>739406006Looks fun, like old-school Mana or Zelda
>>739406006>>739406028The tiny 2D sprite on a 3D overworld isn't really doing it for me. It's a bit too bright and doesn't seem to mesh well.The gameplay looks ok so far.
>>739403869Wait for a sale, for sure. I usually get these games on Switch and this being Switch 2 exclusive means it's getting pushed off either way. I need at least a few reasons to buy a console and this is at most only one.It is quite charming though, from what I have played of the demo. Having a cute girl in the corner talk to me and worry about me while I play just makes me smile. I'll definitely enjoy it when I get around to it. Just not likely soon unless Nintendo's June Direct blows my back out and forces me to buy in the next day (unlikely).
>>739403869C if it is woke or has a trannylation. B otherwise. Haven't bought a game at release in over a decade.
>>739406028>he quit about an hour and a half inTo be fair, that's because he found a good stopping point at around 1:30 in the morning, which is around when he usually stops. It is true that he isn't going to stream it in its entirety and he blamed engagement for that, though. We probably won't even see pre-recordings, but that also frees him up to play it on his own like he did FFT.
>>739403869B)I have too many games in my backlog. I still haven't finished Pragmata
>>739407436Shit I still haven't even started it. I seem to keep finding anything else to play even if I have fuck all else to play. I have no idea what this phenomenon is.
>>739403869I've seen the bitch on the right somewhere? Turn Gay Gundam, maybe?Anyway, I'm not playing a game named Elliot unless it stars the supreme gentleman (wouldn't play that either, but let's pretend that I would)
>>739403869If it gets a 10-15% sale on release I'll consider buying it then, otherwise B. I really enjoyed the demo.
>>739403869A different game I want to play comes out on the same day so I have a good excuse to wait on it and see what people think of it first
>>739403869>what's the consensus?is good
>>739405396>horrible graphicsStopped reading here, philistine. Pixel art is a timeless medium that'll continue to exist long after your death.
It's crazy how many people are being filtered by this game.
>>739403869After the back to back pieces of shit of Rebirth an XVI I will never buy anything day one from SE again.
>>739403869bI don't pay $70 for video games
>>739405473It’s going to take him 5 months to beat it since he’d rather play N64 rom hacks half the time
>>739403869day 1 bay bee
I can't be caught with that on my PC. Even The Chronicles of Melvin would look better
>>739408031I feel you, brother
>>739408294lmao what an insecure faggot
>>739408343OK Elliot
>>739403869>gkc Guess I'll get it on pc then.
>>739408041poorfag
any news on how long the game will be?
>>739408294Kill yourself, richard
>>739408523>I don't want a digital download, so I'll get a digital download insteadhuh?
>>739404506I wish they had gone for something like the Caits or the Beastlings from OT2 instead of kemonomimi characters
>>739412015A lot of team Asano games have been cracked by now. Even then, Steam gives discounts that are better and far more often than Nintendo.
>>739410151It's spread over 1000 years so there to be some length to it.
>>739410151The demo covers the first two time periods, and I managed to spend about five hours grabbing everything I could. Accounting for the extra time clearing out the rest once you get the other fairy abilities and weapons, I'd say it should comfortably be about 30 hours if you're exploring everything. If the overworld doesn't expand and it really is just variations of that one map, I don't expect the game to actually be very big.
>>739403869>5 hour demoJesus Christ.
>>739406803HD-2D is a blight
I'll probably pick it up on sale in a year or so. Demo was good, though.
>>739403869>mfw I predicted every time when Heuria would chime in for retard-proof handholdingThey really need to make her less chatty.
>>739403869Like the demo but not that much so I'll wait for a sale
>>739413085lmao you fucking retard, Heuria was made for people like you.
>>739413165Chill
>>739403869Probably B.I was pretty excited before but after going through the demo it feels kind of repetitive and many enemies have bloated HP.
>>739403869Elliot: The Millennium Glaze
>>739413085>I predictedYou'd have to be brain dead if you couldn't after first couple of her lines.>OMG NEKO-CHAAAAAAAAAAN>this wall has cracks, lets bomb it>GTFO, this dungeon is already empty>this is not the right dungeon you fucking retard, go after that red flag>ELIOTTO IS BESUTO ADVENTURER EVAHShe has a few 'story' lines about herself, beast tribes or area info but rest is just endless nagging.
>>739406028Vinny really hasn't been the same since that woman tried to cancel him because he gave her an STD or some shit. Ever since he came back after taking that break you can really tell he's a jaded man pretending not to be because that's his entire brand
It was pretty funny they gave every cat a slightly different voice.Some of them sounded like pic related.
>>739403869Ask again after release. There's interesting shit, but I'm not convinced I want it.
Does Riesz actually give you anything or does she just hang out in town? This matters for what platform I consider getting it on.
>>739403869Depends. If I'm still playing Crimson Desert and Starforce, I'll probably hold off until a sale.
It would be nice if they fixed their engine to makes elevated terrain in foreground transparent when your sprite goes behind it, like they do with trees and other obstacles.It doesn't happen often but it's not fun being hit by projectile you can't see thrown by a rat you can't see that happened to surface under the cliff.
Did someone try to savescum for ***** magicite?Would a low box level char even able to use it?
>>739415173She gives you money.
>>739415495Dunno. I upgraded my magicite rank to 3. You could spend the rest of the month before release grinding your rank to max probably.
>>739403869I didn't realize it wasn't on Switch 1, so now I gotta wait for Denuvo to be dropped before I can play it on Steam.
>>739413085There is an option to make her less talkative. Apparently that's a point of feedback the team took from the first demo.
I will be buying and playing elliot's game, and I will enjoy it.
>>739415495Demo's likely limited in that regard too.I got some one star magicite with 12 slots requirement so five star can easily need like 40 or 50 slots.>>739415614My guess is even at max rank it's going to be like 0.01% chance instead of 0.00003%I just hope we get more frequent magicite fragment drops as the game progresses.
>>739403869i'm glad they're moving towards something not turn-cringe this time, but i'm having a hard time deciding whether their brand of stylized hd-2d is good-looking or totally soulless
>>739407150he said in the recent yoshi stream that he was gonna play it.
>>739403869d) pirateoverpriced, game is stupidly easy, the end game balance is completely broken for magicite abilitiesjust use cheat engine on the demo to max out your magicite gacha
>>739416030What is the max level? Because I got it to 4 before finishing the demo.
i would have boughted it if it was a turn based game
>>739406028when did he become darksyde phil
>>739416163Let me reinstall it and i'll screen shot it, you could technically get some ultra cheese abilities with a perfect gamble on your first run and that would really ruin your experience of the game i think such special abilities should have be hidden in game as a scroll technique not this gacha shit.
>>739403869>wait for a saleim not poor nigga maybe i will get it at release who knows
>>739416163its 5 and it changes colour
>>739416497How about the box itself? What level does that go up to?
>>739416429>im not poor niggaMe neither but that's because I am not wasting money on overpriced shit to begin with.Not sure it's worth full price if it's really just one map we saw with 4 time variations so I'll wait before making a decision instead of lapping it up day one like a good goy consoomer.
>>739416549lvl 10/ 60 slots
>>739403869>b) wait for a saleI'd buy it on release if it was 50% of the price, and would still think it's a bit pricy for what it is. But I'm not going to buy it when it reaches -50% in 2-3 years, because that's too much for a 2-3 year old game.So, I'll probably end up waiting and waiting until I get it from a 10 bucks bundle with other games in 5 years.I'm still waiting to get Live a Live among the others.
The flutterer's cape basically trivializes any sort of platforming there is in the game, you can also you it to hover to skip areasdid they even test this game?really half assed cash grab, they didn't even bother stopping you from exploiting many things.
>>739416857>The flutterer's cape basically trivializes any sort of platforming there is in the gameJump button already does that.This is not epicly-hard-need-to-allign-your-sprite-pixel-perfectly-with-platform-edge-to-reach-the-next-patform type of game.
>>739407862Sorry, I'm almost 40 years old, I think pixel art with bloom and DOF out of the ass looks terrible, will never get the zoomer obsession with this HD2D garbage.
>>739403869This is probably the most hand holdy game I've seen yet. There's an NPC portrait on your screen at all times, and she will comment on literally everything non stop>you can open this chest in front you>you can walk through this door (did you know you could walk through doors, player-san?)>hey bomb that wall (yes, I WILL spoil every puzzle 2 sec in, how did you know)Jap devs unironically think weebs have profound mental retardation.
>>739417274>turn off all the post-processing effects>It becomes a classic low poly game with character spritesI like the aesthetic in that regard.
>>739416857>did they even test this game?No, it's a lazy SNES nostalgia bait, Alabaster Dawn is in early access but already 100x better, because the people making it actually give a shit.
>>739417519>dude play this heckin valid tranny game insteadno fagget
>>739403869I like Elliot's design, but that's it. It's a familiar safe game otherwise.
>>739417571
>>739416553>$60 for a game you will love to death is so expensive it will turn me poorsounds like you're poor
>>739403869Elliot Rodger: Millennial Tales
>>739403869AYou can never go wrong with anything Japan.
>>739403869Square enix is the publisher so I'll never touch it. I have my principles.
>>739403869At least B, maybe A for a change. The demo was nice. I just wonder if we'll get a few more mechanics for combat like parry or a dodge roll.
>>739417435>Jap devs unironically think weebs have profound mental retardation.One of the clear signs of autism and stunned development is inability to perceive something from the perspective of other people.>how comes there's handhodling in game, I am GAME EXPERT playing games for decades I don't need this shitHere's a little hint autismo-kun:This is going to be someone's first game.That's why every single game with autosave will also nag you to not ALT-F4 / turn off your Piss5 when autosave icon is blinking.
>>739418143>$60 for a game you were excited before playing the demo but found out it's repetitive and kind of boring is totally worth itsounds like you're retarded
>>739415862You can check what the magicites do at the shopp. But basically, the effect is the same, the numbers just get better. Lower restrictrions, more damage, lower cost, etc. So 5* don't do anything particularly special.
>>739417274>Sorry, I'm almost 40 years oldThat just makes your "opinion" more embarrassing, and shows the style will be around even longer after your death than initially thought.
>>739419390>This is going to be someone's first game.Cool, but is there really a market for babby's first video game? Even tendie shit is nowhere as patronizing.
>>739417274I'm 41 and HD2D looks great
>>739406803Looks great!
>>739403869I forgot this game even exists and will probably go back to doing so after I close this thread. so c.
>>739417579I think they should have made him younger and then have the princess groom him.
>>739403869>BDII was shit>DQ 1&2 were shit>Octopath Traveler 1 was shit>Various Daylife was hyper shitI'm not touching anything Team Asano ever again.
>>739403869BI enjoyed the demo, but didnt love it. It was nothing special and ending on a boss that sucks in your bombs hammers that home
>>739412186That would mean - if not a cameo - it's in the same universe as OT1/0/CotC's Orsterra or OT2's Solistia respectively.
>>739403869How come anime games that have faith in the player are so extremely rare?The princess NPC sitting in a corner of your screen and telling you what to do at all times is really extreme. The devs think you're a complete moron if you buy this game.
>>739415173weh?why is riesz in this game?
>>739421396Old save bonus (cameo) with that Secret of Mana remake.OT0 had some rewards with save files of OT1, OT2, and... 2 other Team Asano games.
>>739421441Trials not Secret, you dumb secondary
>>739412952OT2 had a 3-hour demo (which could've been played infinitely if you didn't leave the current map since it forces a loading screen).
>>739421441oh I see, weird cameo for just bonus items but ok, at least they picked the best character I guess
>>739421497I'll admit I didn't buy (and play) that.
>>739417579then you're gonna love ME
>>739418213a supreme adventure
>>739406028>Chat member calls him out for letting engagement metrics determine what he plays>"Um, chat member, maybe if you actually listened you'd realize that what I actually said was that I'll stop playing a game if people aren't watching me."Uhh, yeah, that's what the chatter said. Who does he think he's kidding?
>>739421305I mean they could’ve used one of the Beastlings potential design from OT2 or even used a similar design to the one used in OT2 but give it a cat tail so it looks more like Kit from gameoverse. I also saw some cait look characters in one of the screenshots.
>>739403869>terrible gameplay with an awful hitstop effect on everything>Awful """""HD2D"""""" graphics>It's more Team Asano slop with a bland artstyle and forgettable story AGAIN>Somehow Reiz from Trials of Mana makes a cameo in itSeriously, how the fuck does this gray sludge that is Asano-produced crap sell? Why does it look all mass-produced? Squaresoft used to have so much style; it's absolutely insulting that this is somehow supposed to be like Final Fantasy Adventure
>>739422637Millennial nostalgia for Square shit is one hell of a drug lol, hence these games still selling well, despite being trash compared to Western indies and overpriced as hell
>>739403869I like it but man, whoever is in charge of naming the titles of these games needs to get canned>Adventures of Elliot>Triangle Strategy>Everyday LifeNevertheless I'm picking this up day 1 on my Switch 2
>>739424020Cringe
>>739422637> Seriously, how the fuck does this gray sludge that is Asano-produced crap sell?Because it's good. Octo 2's one of the best RPGs ever, and Triangle Strategy's the best of its genre.
>$70 for a pixel game with very basic looking combatI don't think so.I am interested in it and I'm sure I'll like it more than any AAA slop, but if I don't buy AAA slop at full price if I even buy it, then I ain't buying this shit at full price either.Then again - How long is the game? And how much customization is there for the character?
>>739404506>child catgirlYOOOOOOO DAY 1 BUY.
>>739426140>Triangle Strategy's the best of its genreIs it really that good?I got filtered by the srpg gameplay because I suck at it.
>>739427436No, he's joking.
>>739417274>bloom and DOFImagine being 40 years old and still get assmad about something you can easily disable.
>>739403869Never touch it. There's not a single thing I've seen of this game that looks worthwhile, and even the little bit of game I've seen is obnoxious and boring.
>>739417579Just makes me wish I had Killey in my Suikoden 2 party.
>>739403869It's okay but if the demo is indicative of the rest of the game it's probably going to be worst Team Asano game. They could have done a lot more with the idea of an ARPG.Still gonna boughted and playeded it.
>>739408523wait this is action combat? i thought it was turn based
>>739431849also i really don't like the menu, looks like a cheap mobile game
>>739431849It's currently the only non-turn-based game in their repertoire.LaL remake, BD/BS/BD2/the gachas, OT1/2/0/CotC, TS, VD, DQ1-3 remakes... they're all turn-based.
>>739403869I'm getting it on release. The new demo was a lot better than the first demo, and I'm hooked. Honestly. I'm a bit bummed that it's a whole month until the release of the game. I thought it released next week, but I got it mixed up with Mina the Hollower's release.
>>739426140I remember looking at TS’s character designs and thinking “this is what it would look like if you hired Americans to design a Final Fantasy game”
>>739431849It's a Zelda game.
>>739403869played demo. boring as shit. no difficulty whatsoever. biggest issue is the princess acting as modern narrator that just will not shut the fuck up about 'maybe we should go here', 'dont go that way', 'is that a button, we should try pushing it', on and on and on and on. its like the memes for unreal mario or zelda you see posted with the princess telling them how to jump on enemies or use a mushroom its so fucking bad.
>>739417274>with bloom and DOFIt can be turned off. Actually turns the entire rather crisp. Looks really nice. That said. Things really need to be quite distant before being blurred. I actually think it looks nice. Makes the horizons more mysterious when adventuring.
Why are they marketing the game as an RPG when it's a 2D Zelda game?
>>739403869Seems fun but I'll wait for a sale, hard to justify 60 bucks for an indie game just because it's made by a big company.
>>739433263It's not like an indie game though.
>>739433117RPG mechanics ala the magicite and leveling up skills, I guess.Also because Team Asano's primarily makes RPGs so it fits the narrative better.
>>739403869Perhaps games like this should remain in the past. Felt like forced soul. And also Octopath.
Wait for sale. I liked it well enough but there was nothing outstanding about in terms of gameplay or story.
>>739432328>Playing anything lower than the hardest mode in a modern game
>>739433263it's actually 60? the fuck man lmao
>>739426140>Triangle Strategy's the best of its genre.A VN is the best tactic game everlol lmao even
>>739403869Wake me up when they make Octopath 3
>>739435832It is
>>739421737lol I thought that was funny too. He sounded offended but his retort only confirmed what they were saying>>739433117It is more of an RPG than a 2D Zelda game, though. A more accurate comparison would be the Mana games, which, for whatever it's worth, the team confirmed is closer to what they had in mind than Zelda.
>>739421737It's a little sad honestly. I'd think Vinny would realize by now that just about anything he does will have SOME audience no matter what. Not every game is gonna do fuckin Sunday stream or cozyslop numbers, sometimes you're just gonna have to bite the bullet and play other games you wanna play and accept that you'll """only""" get like 2k viewers instead of 7-10k.
>>739435832I mean whats the difference? Voice acting?
>>739403869maybe in 10 years japan will still be 10 years behind indie studios
playing the switch 2 version and it feels....off? wish i had my PS5 with me right now to have a side by side difference but im away from civilization right now.
>>739403869either a or bwant to see how it turns out
>>739442948Where’s her shoes?
>>739437502Do you guys read really slowly or something Triangle Strategy has a lot of gameplay
