https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBYeRF2XgpEHave you played it in early access or did you wait for the full release?
>>740190762I pirated it and then bought it in EA afterwards. Really solid game. Can't wait to do a co-op playthrough when 1.0 comes. I liked it a lot more than I thought I would, even the story.
I was gonna try this game out until I saw the character creation.
>>740190762Can I fix this evil woman?
>>740190762I do not play early access. Simple as that.However, I do like the look of this one so I'll give it a go when it's out.
>>740190930¿Which AI to make n64 style anime graphics?
>>740191003You can if you believe you can.
>>740191003Probably not? I have honestly no clue, but she seems like the sort of gal whose hubris is going to catch up with her.
>>740191056I pirate EA games and then buy them if they're solid. Hasn't burned me yet and you get the 1.0 experience for cheaper while still supporting the devs. Just gotta be picky and have good judgement.
>>740191003It's possible. How far are you willing to go?
>>740191086This anon made one for the Anima model: >>>/g/108964312
>>740191340looks like hermione in the thumbnail
>>740190762Is this game really good or not? I'm not a fan of top down combat and I heard this game has daily chores like gacha.Also is the coop fun or I just pirate it instead?
>>740190762Game looks kind of insane graphically. The way everything is moving and billowing.
>>740191481It's much less Diablo in combat despite the perspective, it's pretty weighty. Soulslike is an overused term but it's closer to that than Diablo.
>>740190762lmoa releasing 1.0 this earlythey've had like 2 world expansions if you exclude the multiplayer trash nobody asked forand when the game launched it had about 3 hours of real content, ofc they pad it out with timers and resource management and artificial limitations. they havent even doubled the contentwhat happened is theyre bleeding money so theyre releasing a 25% complete game as v1.0 while already working on a different game because it flopped hard
>Contains overtly pro-LGBTQ+ and overtly pro-DEI messaging. Uses body type in place of biological sex during character creation. Multiple female authority figures/combatants. Unexplained diversityno thanks
>>740191526lol
>>740191359Great, thank you
>>740191903What?
>>740191805Wah wah wah
>peopel will unirocanilly think this is a good game because they've been censoring the forum and discord and plebbit from *any* criticism while also begging on discord to give the game positive reviewsthis shit launched with a mixed score and it stayed that way for a year while they added 0 new content btwthen they came up with a pity story to make people positively review bomb the game with the first content expansionactual scum
>>740190762>did you wait for the full release?Always do.
>>740192341There's no need to sign your posts on 4chan.
brat
>dude, women
>>740190762>>740191340She looks like Sidney Sweeney
>>740190885Apparently saves get wiped when it goes out of Early Access is this true do you know?
>>740192425
>>740193136No she doesn't.
>>740193209this is true because the character building is going to use a new class-based system in 1.0
woke slop
>>740193679wrong thread, shartynigger
>>740190885>I pirated it and then bought it in EA afterwards.This is always such a good fucking feeling. Just like, wait, this is actually worth money? Suffice to say, I love how the game does backgrounds. its actually astonishing how its never ever talked about.
>>740194205For me, it's how it's all connected together, like how there's two routes from the beach up to the sunflower fields.
>>740190762I pirated it and did not like it so I shan't be buying
>>740190762I can fix her
>>740191003Celine mellows towards the end, I like her a lot
>>740191903???it does look good
>>740192450She reminds me of an actress and I can't place who
>>740191003She gets buckbroken at the end after she dooms the world.
>>740190762my most hyped game release. I killed the echo knight once and put it down.
>>740190762>>740191340>>740194430I won't give her a moment to rest
>>740190762This game immediately interested me from its very first reveal trailer. Then I was immediately turned off the game when I learned of how it was launching as early access, and seemingly deep into early access too. Then I was was even more turned off the game after I learnt of how much the game appears to lean into multiplayer for some reason. Now it seems like it's finally leaving Early Access with its 1.0 release. So I'm actually interested in the game again. But the multiplayer issue remains. And a good chunk of the 1.0 trailer just jerks off the multiplayer. So. Does the game just kind of if you play it single player or what? I don't have friends to play this kind of game with. Even if I could play some with some friend, I certainly do not have friends to play it regularly or reliably with. And I have no interest in playing a game like this with randoms. I'd play it alone. But all the multiplayer stuff I've seen has left me thinking the game isn't balanced or designed around the single player experience.
if i get it now, should i play or wait for 1.0 to come out?
>>74019076290% of her face is nose
Game is great, cannot wait for a class system and co-op.
>>740196021is it?
>>740195945It's a single player game that they added multiplayer to at a later point, so no it's not primarily multi player focused.
Heard the game has shitty material gathering and daily chores, is that true?
>>740192450She's extremely cute man>>740194580Hermione?
>>740196269YesDaily / Weekly quests
>>740196075>It's a single player game that they added multiplayer to at a later pointThe multiplayer was advertised from the very beginning of the early access and it was one of the things the devs, at least at the time, talked about the most. It never seemed like an afterthought to me. Is it really?
>>740196319No it was Sophie Thatcher
>>740196419nah, not an afterthought. they try to release early access features in a fairly polished state while still putting out content so multiplayer was always intended.
>>740191813Sorry I actually played the game and I'm trying to remember the overtly pro-_______ shit you had a problem with.All I remember is that stupid fucking dark well dungeon in the starting zone and how tedious all the crafting shit was.
Cool game but i idk how are they releasing it into 1.0 already? It took them 2 years to go from 3 hours of main campaign content to 5 hours of content They basically have act 1 of the game in there, I'm assuming theres also act 2 and 3 coming? I'm also not a huge fan of how they randomly turned this into friendslop and started focusing on that.
>>740194430RAPERAPERAPERAPEAPE
>>740197231That's one of those retards who don't actually play games, they just go around complaining about nothing and just collecting little dismissals and excuses for each game like they have a rolodex.
>>740197286>3 hours of main campaign content to 5 hours of contentcos that's not really what they were working on, adding more campaign to early accesswere you expecting to get 90% of the final campaign and then 1.0 is just the last 10%?
>>740196419It was always intended especially since free realms isn't just something you just tack onto a game, but the game is still designed as a single player campaign first, with coop being an option on top.
>>740197286Game development is not linear so that's not surprising to me.What I am worrying about is their intent on adding classes and their weird choice to increase the grind.
>>740197446I was expecting a steady development of the campaign and consistent addition of new chapters, yeah? I mean thats how games do it normally? PoE2?
>>740191805I believe this. The game is really not that great. Also the art direction is horrendous.
>>740197530classes seem like they're needed, i don't think anyone in my friend group used magic once for anything, i was the only person ever using it and i honestly thought it was garbagewe all just resorted to poking bosses with spears and other shit to avoid friendly fire
>>740197286Baldur's Gate 3 was in early access for three years and never left Act 1. It's more about gathering continuous feedback from players about gameplay and systems while you are developing the game, and revenue that keeps you going. Especially since Moon Studios broke away from Take-Two and got the rights to self-publish No Rest for the Wicked last year.
>>740197573>>I was expecting a steady development of the campaign and consistent addition of new chapterswhy?
>>740197573Is it? Baldur's Gate 3 did not do it that way and was in EA for much longer than this game.
>>740197680Well I suppose it depends on the implementation.In a sense classes were already a thing since stat-investment is so restricting.I continue to worry.
>>740197765BG3 also had terrible act 2 and 3?
>>740198010That's your opinion, and it has nothing to do with what you claimed.
>>740190762I pirated it and instantly uninstalled it because "the redefinition of action RPGs" was just a shitty souls clone
>>740198073?? What did I claim?
>>740198175That games in early access supposedly add most of the final game as they go.
>>740190762>Religious nut character>I WILL BRING SALVATION TO THE WORLD>Starts doomsday>Fully expect her to die in the hell tunnel>Instead she's saved by her personal guard who are some kind of insane super soldiers>Now she just chills in hell thinking "Shit">Also bonus points hell is the town she grew up inI like her, I hope she's redeemed.
>>740191056Kinda feeling the same way. What's the gameplay like? Sorta diablo-esq? I've never heard of this before but I would check it out based on that trailer
>>740190762They're claiming there will be 60+ hours of additional content and 15 zones (I think we're currently at 6?) plus some new end game mode or something. That being said, they didn't confirm if the crucible will be finished or if there will be PvP. Either way i'll be happy to play since I already paid for it.
>>740190762what kind of game is it? diablo-like?
>>740199182More heavy than Diablo. There's some Souls influence at least.
>>740199182Its topdown souls Not diablolike at all if you discount loot modifiers and whatnot
>>740199439Sounds amazing assuming within 60 hours they didnt count grinding Crucible over and over
>>740198747I suppose dev cycles vary, but for ARPGs its more typical to be adding content in a linear wayEither way, I hope the game is good when it releases and becomes hugely successful, its my #1 awaited title
>>740192341>this shit launched with a mixed score and it stayed that way for a year while they added 0 new content btwThis is very provably false, why would you even say this?
>>740194430>>740191340>>740200849same energy
>orangutan proportionsLMFAO
>freakishly long arms>freakishly short legs>freakishly big heads>isometric so you're mostly staring at the ground 99% of the timeholy shit this seriously might be goty no cap
>>740198830>when you accidentally the ancient evil
>>740199957The bigger claim is 15 total zones of like the roughly 6~ we got, that seems reasonable. The game right now, without crucible, is about 30-40 hours of content if it's your first time, not counting resource grinding or dailies. so if you 3x that, it would add up to about 100 hours of content of handcrafted zones and content. I just hope the class system is actually good out the gate and really meaningful. The game is fun but it feels like it's too easy to break without grinding and builds get too simplified.
>>740200849Theres Nothing anal rape cant fix
>>740190762Just hope it's a proper 1.0 and not "ran out of money so we're calling it 1.0 but it'll still be unrecognizable a year from now."Stop adding shit, release the game and move on to the next game.
>>740190762played at launch. waiting to play 1.0.loved the early experience
>>740201718i really like the background and rain fx, i got used to the freakish nature of the PC
i'm going to need a report on the pubic hair status of the madrigal asap we need to scout what kind of bush we're dealing with here soldier
>>740202049Neat blonde
>>740201718for top down it works, it makes your character's blocking/facing a lot easier to see in combat and it's not until you open your character screen you remember their orangutan arms
ive had it for like a year. its really good, so i stopped playing to wait for 1.0.i hope they didnt listen to to many of the fucking idiots in their discord.
How is performance nowadays? I remember it was really demanding and not great on mid range hardware a few years ago, and mid range from then is low end now.
love the arstyle, the gameplay, the exploration, everything about it is so good. I have high hopes for this one, cant wait
>>740202189whats your rig? ive got a 5800X3D and a 5070 Super, which id consider mid range, and it runs great at 1440p. i dont NEED dlss but preset k looks fucking great so i run it for some extra frames.
>>740202341its fucking great. its hilarious that people will be asshurt about the characters proportions. like dude this game has a fucking 10/10 artstyle if the guys forearms turn you off you aint cut out to play this shit anyway.
Why aren't the women all manfaced troonbeasts?
>>740202750because moon studios as actually based and people have attempted to "cancel" them, especially the CEO.
>>740202750Because it's based>>740202189Still pretty bad for no fucking reason. Since optimization is the last thing that happens in game dev cycles, I'm hopeful that 1.0 will be better
>>7401907621.0 my ass. they cut out half the updates that were meant to be pre-1.0Imagine going back in time back when developers were overpromising and showing people that they would announce a rushed 1.0 before they even have an update with>cerim sanctuaries>the 'alive' updates>the 'sacrament' update & farming>more crucible statues instead of echo knight over and over>half of multiplayer>all the missing weapon types"Early Access" and "1.0" means jack anymore its completely arbitrary, you call it whatever you feel is more convenient for your sales and review scores. Piles of people refusing to play super fleshed out games because "Noooo i dont want to play an unfinished game", at the same time as legions of these people buy some unfinished shit as soon as it reaches 1.0>>740191526yeah and clearly the graphics are so expensive its been completely shafting the development. the game's development has been really shallow outside of the department of looking visually good>>740191805this is wrong, they more than doubled the content (even if its still way too little) and practically everyone wanted multiplayer. But your last paragraph is completely correct regardless.>>740200440Its literally not, they only really added content after almost a year, and it was the dumbass Crucible roguelike gamemode that doesnt even expand on the actual game, and whether it actually counts as real content is EXTREMELY debatable. It didnt even have a new boss, they cut that out. No new enemies either. Just a pretty looking dungeon
>>740199439No way they add all those zones by october. Or if they do it will be barebones empty shit
>>740203431The Breach update was a year ago.
>>740203431>>740203608the zones around the edges blatantly look either much smaller or much less detailed (the top left one in particular), odds are the dungeons and internal places will be huge dealbreakersIm more concerned about the systems/balance/combat/enemy variety/etc than the zones though
>>740204101ok
>>740202049there is zero (0) porn of madigral selene online, and this is a problem we need to discuss
>>740205102This is an outrage.
>>740203219>"Early Access" and "1.0" means jack anymore its completely arbitraryWelcome to the real world, tism-friend.
>>740196021Seems like an extremely normal amount of nose to me.
>>740190762Sell me on this shit. Is it Diablo + Dark Souls or what? The fuck is the game really beyond the marketing?
>>740206078>Diablo + Dark SoulsThat sounds about right.
>>740206078you have a stamina system with stats you choose to decide your build, dodge rolling is a method of avoiding damage, parrying is another, there are some fun spells but i mostly played as a human torch for my warrior friend
>>740190762I don't like the endless searching for where or how to go next. It's similar in Elden Ring and it sucks but in Elden Ring I guess you always find one more boss that you could try. Not here.
>>740206078Diablo with fewer enemies on screen at once, that will kill you in a few hits if you don't dodge or block, and you need to pay attention to the attack pattern of enemies. There is friendly fire damage in co-op so you can't blast through screens with more players. Deaths aren't as big a deal as dark souls since there's no genuine penalties
I played it.Very fun. I did like the presentation and lore more than the game but the big class changes they revealed look neat since the itemization they have currently is NOT good enough if they wanted it to compete withe more traditional ARPG's and it wasn't smooth and deep enough to compare to THE non-standard ARPG Nioh.
how is the music?
>>740207164It's barely there, they switched composers years into development and now it's the same guy as the Ori games so hopefully the full game will have some proper tracks.
is it difficult?
>>740205102That's the real use case of AI generated porn
>>740191056FPBPBeta testing for free or paying to do so is the ultimate pleb behavior.
>>740208874I don't want AI porn, I want manmade, accurate porn that reflects the video game.
>>740205102if she has similar proportions to the female player character then that is not surprising
>>740208801It can be for sure but once you know what you're doing it gets a lot easier and then you can builds. That being said, I think hands down the absolutely worst thing in this game to me is the boss fights. There's a big problem with them, literally, in that they're all very large and take up a lot of space and this creates problems where it can be hard to read what the enemy is actually doing depending on the camera angle. This is something i've reported in my feedback personally. It makes it worse when you combine this with some of the animations on some specific bosses where i'm getting elden ring flashbacks when you fight some of those giant worm monsters in a small arena that make it hard to tell wtf is going on. This was at it's peak in the final boss of the crucible, which granted is optional content, but considering the time you have to spend to get to that boss it's just so obnoxious trying to learn to beat it when dying sets you back 20+ minutes. I really hope they address it at some point but who knows. I suggested they give you a 3rd person camera or a rotating camera, just for those fights, especially since they're in arenas so it should be easier. The devs actually showed off the ability to play the game in a more traditional 3rd person mode but there was no promise that they would release it as an option
>>740208913but that's not the first post
>>740209010She doesn't.
>>740209323>only one thing starts with FYou're retarded m8
I want to know more about the Cerim and the plague and the world.
>>740190762I might.
thomas is unironically one of the biggest grifter trannies and i say it as someone who follows grummz and doesnt skip a single asmon video
>>740212062Kill yourself.
>>740199182>>740199587as others are saying, it's poe/diablo but souls BUT it's definitely not as bad as soulslop and this is coming from someone who absolutely despises soulslopyou struggle with maintaining stamina at first but eventually as your build gets fleshed out the game becomes more and more fun and the build options open upunlike soulslop which are generally slow you can build to be pretty darn fast toothe build options are quite good and the crafting system in this game also feels good and decently intuitiveworst part of the game is the parkour aspect and fall damage, the game wasn't made with kbm in mind whatsoever so you might need to play on a controller
THIS GAME FUCKING SUUUUCKS>>740203219What this guy said
>>740190762I played it and finished (?) it. I presume there's more to come. But the current ending felt lacklustre and the plague mode feels very boring and underdeveloped. It was fun leading up to there though. I did a second playthrough with a friend that was pretty great as well.
Romance the blonde?
>>740190762>still no 'cheevosim good boss
Is this one of those games you're meant to play forever like Diablo? Because the whole "do a run" thing never appealed to me, I played through Diablo 2 once and that was the end of the game, same happened with 3. Not the play through it fifty times plus nightmare whatever difficulty.
>>740214281no, not unless being burned alive on a stake is your specific fetish
i don't carethe developer is a grifter
>>740214742why would i give a shit if he was a grifter as long as he finishes making games i like?
>>740190885The cinematics are really well madehttps://youtu.be/8tpJIbi_7AM?t=2169
>>740214821i don't want to support a group that wants to kill me
>>740214742how so?
>>740191805>LMAO imagine buying EA games, this will be out in 5 years>comes out in 2>LMAO imagine releasing 1.0 this earlyNeck yourself
>>740214852
>>740205102She looks cute once buckbroken
>>740208913>Beta testing for freeOr you're actually enjoying the game and getting your money's worth out of it.
>>740190762i pirated it on EA release, decided i hated the molasses sloggy combat and mobile-esque resource / timegating shittried it on the free weekend some months ago and saw that they fixed neither of my two main criticisms so unless 1.0 'FIXES EVERYTHING' i'm not interested
So what are they going to add? I haven't played since before the multiplayer coop update.
>>740215243>i hated the molasses sloggy combatBased. I hope they never fix it. The combat was great.
>>740215292New regions and enemies.More story and wrapping up the campaign.New class system.
>>740190762It's just a mishmash of the worst mechanics in video game history. I remember there being some drama too.Not even worth pirating unless you're extremely retarded and autistic.
>>740214538It's probably got enough content to make you satisfied with 1 playthrough. Finishing the EA content took me ~30 hours, including all the side quests. 1.0 is supposedly meant to have another 50-60 hours of content on top. I've done 2 playthroughs but could very much imagine doing 1 and being done with it.
>>740191813>has sexy monstersSorry can't hear you.
>>740190762oh that's great but does this game still irl timer for city upgrades, shitty inventory management and horrendous itemization?
>>740215571Timers were reduced to like 10 seconds tops, so that's been fixed.Inventory and itemization are still pretty stank but the new gear/class system is supposed to change/fix that.
>>740215423sounds right up your alley!
>>740190762did they remove resource mining, made inventory/chest sizes reasonable and, if i recall correctly, waiting for X real-world hours for weapons to be crafted at smiths, town to build?i ain't playing it otherwise
>>740191813>pro-LGBTDon't get my hopes up. I want to see Odessa and Madrigal make out.
>>740191805the game is already pretty fuckin big, especially compared to most arpgs
>>740190762I'm waiting for full release. I hear it runs like absolute on everything though so maybe I'll keep waitfagging until I get new hardware.
>>740191056Note that they are raising the price to $60 at full release. (It's currently discounted at around 28 bucks.)
One of the things this game excels at (in addition to its unique art style) is the level design. The verticality and how well the regions are interconnected beats even Dark Souls imo.When I got to that region with the birdmen in the EA version I was amazed to find a whole different region above the forest.
Great game that I decided to drop until 1.0That being said, the buildcrafting sucks shit and there needs to be alternatives to parrying, it's lame that it's on every weapon class
>>740216281It's perfectly playable on my 1080 powered toaster
>>740216374>CEO has an AI generated profile picmakes one ask questions about the games content
>>740190762Is the game really finished?
>>740214742Do you know what "grifter" means, esl monkey?
>>740216790It's not ai-gen believe it or not.he especially made it to look like aishit which is even more bizarre if you ask me.
>>740216903He's a fucking dumbass then. What could be the 200 IQ reason for deliberately trying to turn people away from your game by having a profile pic that looks like it's made using AI?
>>740216790The CEO is braindamaged, he even thought he was being review bombed but it was all just genuine negative reviews because the update made it worse.
>>740217063I made that up.
>>740216831For 1.0 the game is supposed to basically double in size, since they already got the hard shit down like the multiplayer and all that, they just have to finish the story (And hopefully remake the endgame because that shit sucks)
>>740190762too woke for me. game only has girlbosses and weak white men and 1 black guy approiating european culture who is smarter then every white guyin fact every white male character in the game is depicted as evil, weak or incompetent to make woman or black look smart and heroic.
>>740201718The orangutan look kinda grows on you.
I really like the rolling look the world has.
>>740217156>written by chatgpt
>>740217063Maybe because he thinks people will look at the actual game instead of a twitter profile pic.
what does co-op add to the game, is it just spongier enemies? I'm looking for something fun to play with my buddy.
>>740217367Like I said, he's a dumbass if he doesn't think how he puts himself out there on social media, doesn't affect how people perceive the game his company is developing.
>>740190762If i remember, the game had horrendous optimisation issues on PC at some point, i had to change settings to medium to break 60fps, whereas games which were more demanding than this one ran perfectly fine on high, hope they fixed it by now.
>>740217414pretty much, half the builds don't work anymore as enemies don't take damage and you just hit and stagger each other all the time so now you need to take turns too
>>740217437Maybe you should fuck off back to said social media and virtue signal there. Plenty of fellow witchunters there who'll gladly listen to your screeching.
>>740217156they have young white guy who is incompetent and evil who only exist for the girlboss to kill and steal his throne and then they have her dad who is weak and depressed and only exist for the girlboss to insult and show how a real leader leads.the story really sucks. literally every interaction" white men weak, woman and blacks strong"
>>740217568That's not what happens but go off queen.
