So what's next for vanillaware?
the next thing for my vanilla cock is chocolate ass I tell you what
>>739527395more VNs disguised as games
Why do men lose their minds over dark elves?
>>739527395Not a sequel, that much is known.
>>739528123Thank you for being on topic unlike the other guy
>>739527395I hope it is an action game next.
Whatever it is it'll take a long time for it to be announced either way
Food porn
I'd like to see a run n gun from them. Sci fi would be cool, or maybe something new from them like steampunk fantasy.
Years of silence followed by MGE tactics gameAnd yes all of the recruitable monster girls try to rape (you)lovingly of course, but you aren't ending the game with your pelvis intact and your family tree below you left blank
>>739527791Holy.. if somebody has the gif with a train tryin to pass a tight tunnel, this is the time to post it
>>739529862Yeah this would be really cool for them to tackle.
i was hoping for some DLC
>>739527395chocolateware
For a second I thought it would be neat to have them do something akin to xcom but there is no way to translate their artstyle to thatUnless its more like fire emblem, chibi sprites on the map, full art when attacking something
>>739527395Never making a DLC expansion for this game, for starters.
>>739527395More piracy and hopefully recomp of their games on pc especially dragon's crown with working coop
>>739527395not pc apparently
>>739527395More fantasy beat em upMaybe a dark fantasy this time with sexual content like rape and slavery
>>739527395How did they get that skin when they lived in caves and heavily briared forests? Ass worldbuilding to be honest. Tolkien gave everyone the template half a century ago, but you still have to properly comprehend it I guess...
>>739530652Fuck off, only loli posts are deserving of that, not shitskin subapes bragging online about being a warm fleshlight
A turn based rpg please, a real one
>>739527395Bankruptcy because of their fear of mods and pirates.
>>739532984Not likely, but Kamitani's weird neuroses do baffle me.
>>739532984japan will save them because they're the last real Japanese focused 2D studio left for vidya, even other big name directors say that losing vanillaware should not happen. Ever.
>>739527764Where did she get all that glitter?
>>739527791white roasties are malding really hard over this
>>739527395Honestly? Nobody fucking knows. Vanilla ware is pretty much just George Kamitani and whatever he wants to do. All his games barely make enough to keep the lights on and fund the next game. If his next game severely underperforms we might start seeing a lot of ports like Odin's Sphere and Muramasa on Switch, that's his backup plan that he's saving in case of emergencies.
>>739527395More games with hmofa romance hopefully
>>739535123need more cat girls
>>739527395I predict another game that will be stuck on consoles and eventually become unplayable
Went to angel town after finishing the beast areaGotta change my teams cuz the new mobs are whooping them
>>739535818Yunifi as best girl should've been the protagonist. Allowed to fuck all the girls of course
>>739537460made to build a big family with
>>739527395Probably something George will helm, since it seems to go back and forth between the two lead artists. I'd like a fully realized RTS game like 13 Sentinels that didn't "cheat" as much as it does for its gameplay sections.
Is this what these threads are? Just endless waifu discussion?
>>739538230the game is like 2 years old at this point. Any plot or gameplay discussions are long dead. Leaving just character discussions since that's what tends to keep people into the game
>>739538230It's a vanillaware game. Wafius are the point of all of them.
>>739538323hes a covid tourist anon
>>739538230Unfortunately yesVanillaware games are really fun but they also attract gachtroons who don't play their games but love to post their waifu
Dragon's crown recomplied pc port when?
>>739527395I love vanillaware
>>739538502As do I, need to play Muramasa at some point, but not getting a Vita just for it.>>739538297I just got it because the sale recently was actually pretty steep, it's the same reason I only got into 13 Sentinels two years ago because it dropped under $20, and Grimgrimore was at least under $20 last year, but sadly it was localized by NIS, so if you complained about 13 Sentinels or other ATLUS localized games, it got it even worse from a dialogue standpoint.
>>739535123
They need to make a game based on this artwork. I want to play as a naked torso lady in a jar that pilots a robotic suit to fight aliens with naked ladies in them.
this is official art
>>739538946Good ol georgeThe director for UO himself also drew Berengaria. I think she's a favorite
>>739538946This is an official figure.
>>739538946>>739539304Okay?
>>739527395They announced on their Twitter some time ago that they were hiring for development of an action RPG.
>>739539304She should have looked like that in the game, I felt like her character design was missing a little something extra.
>>739528123Why is she so cool
>>739539771What does Action RPG mean in this context?
>>739540030probably like odin sphere/muramasa demon blade
>>739527791his poor back, looking at this horrible sink alone everything in this apartment is on Hobbit height
>>739539771nicei don't care for trpgs and vns so i haven't bought a vanillaware game in a while
Trying to do everything in UO was a huge mistake. Dropped the game after the elf area because it was getting so repetitive.
i hope the next game has plenty of food porn
>>739539771Greek setting please.
>>739538405I never understood these people. I could never really get into a character if I haven't played their game even if I find them hot
>>739527395Kamitani's new game in June Direct?
>>739527791>never have to carry anything againwrong bitch, you'll be carrying countless babies
>>739539304This one is not up for preorder right? I hope I don't miss this
>>739540680just imagine
>>739538946Segsooooo
>>739540806hmmm
>bothering with any of this when you could be preserving the royal bloodline with your cousin who acts like your big sister and looks like your mom
>>739527791jeetas are toxic as fuck tho
>>739540856why did she period on that guy
>>739540986Ancient greek fighting style
>>739538230yesthere is nothing really to talk about, game difficulty is low, there is no really any meaningful choices or paths, no multiple ending , no game plusoutside art and waifus its rather mediocre game(at best)
>>739527395PC release
>>739528123>Bikini armor + bodysuit (it looks like bodypaint anyway)Thanks Vanillaware.
>>739540856>>73954101616th Ottoman empire citizen btw. Its really fun to see anachronistic stuff like that for no reasons, kinda like how Simon Belmont looked like a hyperborian barbarian in the 17th century
Spinoff RPG set in a much smaller scale where Melisandre travels the world, from town to town to solve problems, duel, kill monsters and being her mischievous self. She teams up with people like Ridel, Celeste, Liza, Mille etc
>>739531530lel
>>739527395Elf breeding farm sim.
>>739538230battle forecast kills all need for strategy discussion.
>>739536159Never said.>>739538230If someone wants to talk about the actual game proper, like some cool compositions or funky character builds, then I'm all ears.But yeah, game has been out for a while, everyone played it to death.Also, but my own personal conspiracy theory, lots of anons in these threads haven't even played it. They just talk about the girls pretending they did.
>>739538230Its pretty much a solved game. The fact it let you romance eveyone on top of the "designated" love interests attracts a lot of waifu fags too.
nothing worse than some clown thinking he's the only one who played a game and thinks he's special
>>739527764this girls art is spectacular even outside of UO fanartI wish vanillaware would make an online coop rpg like maplestory but with soul. Nintendo would support it they were testing online stuff in that roblox terrarium alpha
>>739527764She has an outstanding number of fan arts. Maybe the fact she is the first elf sister you meet in game helps.
>>739541616right here
>marry berengaria because she's obviously best girl>she fucks off almost immediatelyi understand what they were going for and i respect it but i'm still a bit bitter about it.
>>739544471She deserved frilly dress and babymaking correction
>>739543940And the fact that her sister is boring is shit. Even Eltolinde's attendant is boring as shit compared to Railanor.
>>739544471You didn't marry Berengaria. Because if you did, you'd know that it wasn't like that.
>>739543720sauce?
>>739527395>thread about dark elves>americans start jerking off over indian women
>>739527395Delving even deeper into pandering to western trannies, likely with the characters lecturing the player about pronouns.
What drives human men to go for elves anyway?
>>739544615how was it then. it's been some time but all i can remember is her leaving because she didn't care about being queen and just wanted to be with her old gang.
>>739544890The more pressing matter is: what drives generic human spear girls to go crazy for random elf guys so much?
>>739544914She doesn't "fuck off immediately", she spends some time together with Alain in the castle as a queen, but courtly life isn't her thing and it leads to some unpleasantries with the nobles.They decide that she's better off organizing and leading the army.
>>739542449Battle Forecast wasn't the problem, the problem was that not a single enemy formation outside the Arena had any sort of gambit setup whatsoever.Just putting a Sandstorm staff into a squad guaranteed they would steamroll 99.9% of the squads on True Zenobian, much less actually optimized setups like you'd use online.
>>739534930>All his games barely make enough to keep the lights on and fund the next game.Wasn't Unicorn Overlord sold 2 million copies? That's pretty good.
>>739527395>r/mendrawingwomen
>>739541786I've thought about that too. Do the japs actually have no idea, or do they just not care?
>>739545282They don't care. Soulcalibur has Ivy after all.
>>739537589buttslut
>>739543569On topic of the game itself; the near-mandatory "cavalry as squad leader for the movement speed" mechanic is a pretty big miss on Vanillaware's side. If nothing else then because it means you won't get the "select unit" voice lines for most units. They should just not have squad leaders, and the voice appearing when you select a squad should just be a random member.
>>739544689FE4 remake fucking when?
>>739545308She's just one of many "does not care" examples, but I think there might also be some actual ignorance behind a lot of it.
>>739545109that was a problem too, but you underestimate how much damage battle forecast did to game discussion. People who encounter an enemy and have trouble with it don't have to go online and reflect on their strategy anymore, they can just keep rotating through their squads, clicking on the fight until the find the team with the right matchup and RNG to win that particular fight. they don't need to know why a certain team wins because the game tells them ahead of time with 100% certainty.
>>739534930his fault for being schizo refusing to release pc ports. he's just making himself lose money on purpose
>>739545395They could certainly have been more creative with leaders. Too many "regenerates faster while in a fort" effects on infantry.Faster movement through woods for scouts, for instance. Or invisibility for ambushes (I know the werewolves have a battlefield ability like that) for thieves/rogues.
>>739545096pedantic little shit aren't you, i thought it was obvious i was exaggerating a bit. also, i said "almost" immediately. i know it's implied she spends some time there but in the game it goes from wedding scene to her leaving in the span of a few minutes, even if there's been a timeskip in between. my main issue is you have very few interactions of them just being a couple before already going to the scene she leaves. i think it would've been better if they just left it a bit more open that she might one day leave but for now she'll stay.
>>739545495Nah, in Soulcalibur 4 they introduced Hilde who wore a period accurate armor. In fact, they did so she can stand out from the rest.
>>739545395the movement speed mechanic was weird all around. I remember wanting to put the Angel chick in the same squad as her cleric friend, but adding a flying unit to a ground squad actually LOWERED their movement speed, which was just baffling.
>>739545653Because it took them four games to do the slightest bit of research about the region and time period they have set their game in?
>>739544560I got up from bed to contest this.Eltolinde's rapports were way cuter as a romantic partner for Alain which convinced me to go for her ending despite initially gunning for Rosalinde.Rosalinde, despite all the teasing and thirsting, had much less interesting rapports while Eltolinde felt significantly more active about it.
>>739545495>but I think there might also be some actual ignorance behind a lot of it.sure bro, Soul Calibur devs absolutely think people dressed like Taki and Ivy in 16th century europe, definitely not just them doing what's fun and sexy because they like fun and sexy designs.
>>739545679Different movement types in the same squad (Cav/Fly/Foot) gives a penalty to the movement, yes. That's why, by the end of the game, I would gather most of my flyers in one squad so they could keep their native 150 movement speed.
>>739545751Of course they mix fantasy and realism, but I could totally see japs thinking, without a shred of irony, that renaissance Greece having aryan pagan communities was a real thing, because their concept of what a European and what European history looks like is/was completely off the mark.
>>739545757>Different movement types in the same squad (Cav/Fly/Foot) gives a penalty to the movement, yesyeah, but WHY do they? why would a squad of 4 infantry be faster than a squad of 4 infantry and 1 flier? I get why mixing infantry into other squads slows them down, but how can adding a faster unit to a team lower the speed?
A sequel to muramasa with some actual depth to combat would be cool. I've only played the Wii version but it's pretty fucking brainless. they could've given momohime and kisuke a couple unique attacks for god's sake. there is so much potential and I would love to play a new 2D game that's not a goddamn metroidvania
>>739545862They acknowledge that Sophitia's pagan worship as odd however.
>>739546192Muramasa getting the Leifthrasir treatment Odin Sphere got would be incredible, but they seem hell bent on never porting Muramasa to a system anyone owns for some reason.
I am surprised they've never made a fighting game. But I guess keeping a lot of servors up is not their budgets.
>>739546402I never looked into the dlc until recently and assumed that rebirth was on the same level as leifthrasir. the new characters in rebirth look cool but man why didn't they improve the actual combat system
>>739527764>thong obstructed by capeBoooo! 0/10
>>739548693>two womenEasy there partner.
>>739548994It's okay, Alain is that capable.
>>739549192That's what his grand pappy said too.
>>739527764Dunno man. I am gonna cream the shit out of this today.
>>739549706I want to explode on her buttocks. I'm edging for 6 days now.
>>739550360Oh yeah i can understand you. I am gonna glue her right there.
A daily PSA reminder that Chloe won
How many of you actually played the game? Did you emulate it or play it on the shitch
>>739552139Yuzu when it came outMarried Scarlett because her idle animation is what got me to play the game in the first placeYes I also do indeed read taepodong in shadow's light novel
>>739535123Dinah gets extra scenes and dialogue compared to others when you marry her, which implies she's the canon marriageHmofabros won
>>739552375Yeh emulating it is the way. The switch is such a dogshit console.
I loved, loved, LOVED unicorn overlord and did literally everything there is to do on release (and vow for Chloe supremacy btw).But I really hope the next game is directed by George Kamitani again, I miss his style.
>>739552139Played it on PS4.2 and a half playthroughs. Still have a save file in Bastoria. Gotta finish that soon.
>>739552561iirc we also got it earlier than the official release date too, tendies were mad.Honestly a lot of people were playing it on emu back then, we had constant threads up in 202.One for complaining about the translation and one where everyone actually playing the game would go to discuss it.
>>739552139Played it on my Samsung tablet with Yuzu, married Melisandre. Regret not buying it though. Doing a new playthorugh now, around l29 in frost/angel lands. The plan was to try new tactics and use fighters, but gave up on both as I just try to keep up most of my army to around the difficulty of the battles. Gave the ring to Scarlett this time around
Unicorn Overlord is an example of why I don't play games with romance mechanics: they're always bad or mediocre games themselves.
>>739552656I wish it was on PC, I hated Scarlett's ascension ruined her color scheme with the awful black belt, and even changing her color palette couldn't fix it.Game needed mods to fix that.
>>739552709>they're always bad or mediocre games themselves.But enough about [game which isn't Unicorn Overlord]
>>739529862I would like to see them do a roguelike, like Hades, but good and hot girls.
>>739552139Emulated it, played all the way to completion.This was the party with which I took down Galerius.
>>739552139I buyoughted the collector's edition on xbox
>>739539304Really? Because it looks incredibly fragile with just one anchor point to the base.
>>739548994The final boss was unironically the Unicorn, preventing Alain from dicking down all the women he had recruited to his army lol. Should have been a final fight where Alain declares he won't be behold to the monogomous constraints of the ring and offs the unicorn.
>>739541616keep begging, i am sure it will come eventually
>>739540856>>739541016
>>739544471You're still together, she's just not Queen material.
>>7395521393 playthroughs on switch. maybe more later.
Sexing Dinah and the sexy redhead lion at the same time.
>>739552139i enjoyed the seething retard thinking it was a switch exclusive having meltdowns every threadi am now replaying it on the switch 2it's the 3rd time i tell myself i'll get as little unique characters as possible and go full generics, and start saving everyone right away
>>739556903Berengaria not being queen material is pretty ironic considering she's named after a queen.
>>739552139Played through the game twice on console. Have it at 100%
>>739552139I still need to do the norbleing.
>>739552139I played the crap out of it, multiple runs. Did all kinds of builds, look at this impractical meme build. It's one of those games where I wish I could magically forget everything I learned, and just play it blind again. It was relentlessly charming for as long as it remained fresh.Maybe it'll feel fresh again 5 years from now but I'm almost itching for another run anyway.
Is this game actually good? I live in Japan and they practically give Switch 2's away here. I've never played any Vanillaware games but I really love the art and I've finally been buckbroken into accepting that there will never be a PC release.
>>739559559isn't it getting a price increase in jp soon?
>>739559559If you like strategy/tactics games and games focused on building characters, yes. There's a lot of neat challenges you can do and unconventional paths you can take through the game and the squad building mechanics are surprisingly deep. If you only like the art and girls...maybe? Seems like a lot of people play it for that reason.
>>739559559If you have a regular switch or something then just grab the 8 hour demo and find out for yourself.
>>739559559Have you played Tactics Ogre 64? It's a more modern take on that.
>>739527395I should finish this game, it was alrightAnd having incest is a huge plus for me
Why does vanillaware hate PCI know I can emulate them but still
>>739527395A full game with dark elves
>>739527395They need to release this game on PC or it'll never be popular.
>>739559559It's good but not as a tactics games. Think of it more as a programming game and you'll love it though.
>took a break from the game because I was too busy to play anything>playing it again today for the first time in several months, doing battles in the snow country full of furries>sudden migraine out of nowhere againIs that normal? I kept getting migraines when I played it before too, is this game trying to kill me?
>>739552139Played it on launch on my gf's Switch. Quit on the final continent. Started playing again recently.
>>739527395how well does it run the deck?
>>739565936bird nigga witches inflicting migraine debuffs on you
>>739565941>>739568091have to create an army half elves...

>>739568830Very nice.
>>739564374>Think of it more as a programming game and you'll love it though.In the nicest way possible, what the fuck do you mean by this? I've never read that before and I'm curious.>>739527395I want a fucking console port of Oboro Muramasa with the Vita extras/dlc. I sure would love a sequel to Dragon's Crown as well.
>>739568469Based>>739568830Sporty girls...
>>739535123Made for human men
>>739562258Japs hate money as much as they hate piracy. They're control freaks. They don't want you to experience the game outside of their intent.
>>739527764Even Scarlett loses her mind.
>>739569512The elves trolling Scarlett is very funny and only made me want to make half elf children even more.>>739559559Yes it's good but it's just as flawed in the gameplay department as every vanillaware title.>>739553760It's very funny the game's narrative forces a very hard "no harem" situation. Poor Alain, any other king would easily have a quarter of his army as his concubines at the very least.
>>739528247Time to dig in!
>>739552596
JOJO DES
pick your shopkeeper
>>739570773I could pick up this shop keeper. Otherwise, the blonde with the sideponytail
>>739570773
>>739527395thought this was muramasa 3 for a second.
>>739570674great butt

>>739570773If I speak I am in trouble
>>739571665it's okay anon. you can like elves here
>>739559559None of their games are good I would suggest buying artbooks instead especially considering you can't even buy most of their catalogue anymore>hand draw decades of game assets>never port them to modern hardware>refuse to let publisher do it for you>reaching bankruptcy between releasesder fucking boomer
>>739568881thx anon. now i need to fap.
chocolate or vanilla?
>>739574335Tits too big.
Can they stop releasing their shit on consoles I don't care about?
>>739574574No.
>>739527395WHY ISN'T THIS ON PC YET?it's been so long since release!!!
>>739527764dark skin but no nigger features
>>739574606Then they will continue being poor.
>>739574651you could emulate switch games day 1. so in that sense it's been on PC the whole time. The screen jumping causes nausea in a large portion of the playerbase though. 0/10 would not recommend.
>>739527395>Get a free month of ps+ and use it to play this>Want to marry the furry girl but the beard is an issue>Melisandre shows up and is playful and having fun>She immediately starts tearing people apart when recruited, slashing a hundred times and murdering everything I couldn't give her the ring fast enough, what a woman
>>739574651Vanillaware games never come to PC, they don't want their assets mined and re-used.
People complain about this game being too easy yet the game has two hard modes.Are those easy too?
you can marry and fuck your cousin that looks like your mother
>>739552139Played it on Switch, immediately decided to marry Yahna when realizing how overpowered her teleport was
>>739574989UO is easy, but it's not for the reason people say ("the enemies have no gear"). It's because of something more fundamental to the game's design - namely that you can stack initiative-boosting gear and overwhelm the opponent before they can ever take an action. This is the game working as designed and intended and the higher difficulties don't really have an answer for it. It's just too easy to nuke the shit out of everything with its "winner take all" system.The same is true in the arena, so again, it's not an enemy equipment issue. You just get insanely OP in the game with your human brain + all the broken gear you can equip to never give the enemy a turn.
>>739575030She was going to be your bride had the war didn't break out too.
>>739575030Her costume is so good,
>>739574903And with the aggressive bullshit with AI becoming more prevalent, reducing that risk seems to have proven George right sadly.
>>7395707733 (and 4)
>>739575253well, it *also* doesn't help that the enemies have no gear and really no tactics for the most partlike, yes, you would be sweeping them anyway but they don't really put up any resistance aside from some squads in angel land and certain bosses
>>739570773The age appropriate woman of course, you crazy?
>>739580332some guy commissioned quite a bit of art of her
>>739580467Good. She's cute and deserve it. Like a lot of UO girls
>>739552139played it on switch. married dinah. then got to the angel part and got bored probably from sidequesting too much over a month
>play through the game>get to the wife choice>can't decideI still never finished it to this day.
>>739574989Yes. For some reason, even the difficulty mode that's initially locked is barely a step up. I still really enjoyed it despite that, though, enough so to make up my own challenge runs.>>739572286Vanillaware is one of the most consistently good developers out there.
13 sentinels and unicorn overlord were more successful than the majority of vanillaware's catalog. The idea that they are going bankrupt is steamfag cope
>>739580690
>Some ex-vanillaware dude is making his own game and releasing it on steam.Maybe this will finally convince George to let Atlas port his shit.
>>739581736who? what game?
>>739582997the game you just lost
>>739575030>>739575648>Mom is preparing to step down and retire. still mogs her daughter. They really shouldn't have made the queen playable, because I found myself ignoring Virginia soon after.
>>739545941Because the infantry have to carry the supplies to feed the flier who eats more due to the extra calories needed to fly, so the ground troops are weighed down more.
