Ok, i finally cave in because of you fuckers.Expect a very autistic post later if i don't like it
Looking forward to it
>he fell for it
I'm waiting for a sale myself, I'm just not sold on this game and I don't like to buy into hype. At least you got a physical copy you can resell if you don't like it / when you beat it. Have fun and keep me posted
>>740973623That's okay, it's GOAT if you're white.
>>740974834It's like 40 bucks with free dlc dude.
>he actually boughted E33lol. lmao even.
>he boughtedI await your autismo rant, op.
>>740973623Get ready for an intro hand-tailored for twitch streamers and reactubers, then dozens of hours of an OK game afterwards.
>>740978390I am pretty tired of streamer attitude. Apparently they have the gall to get upset no when non licensed music isn't a feature. As if it's something owed to them. Fuck off with that, you're only a youtuber.

>>740979113Then why are you on this thread? Make a thread you're interested in or fuck off and post in another one it's not that difficult.
>>740973623You seem like an easily influenced midwit so you'll enjoy it
What's the over under for his rant being hating it or a shitpost where he says its the greatest game he's ever played
>>740973623Depends on skin.
>>740980319>a shitpost where he says its the greatest game he's ever playedNTA but it is one of the greatest games I've ever played
>>740974834It was 35 dollars for a week at launch. How poor are you? 35 for an official steam key is nuts at launch for one of the best games ever made.
>>740979113>he thinks anyone on this board, let alone shitposters, have played the game or even bother to learn about the game to better shitpostNot sure what year you think it is anon but /v/ isn't a vidya board anymore. You gotta go to /vg/ for vidya, just keep your filters open to add in the resident schizos.
>go to /vg/ for vidya Ah yes, the board where everyone only exists to stick their finger in your bum to tell you your shit is just as sweet. No thanks.
Hand?
>hates discussing vidya in on-topic threadsSounds like /v/ is where you belong, happy for ya.
>>740982226this

>five hours>OP hasn't come backI think he likes it guys
>>740973623Dont get attached to anything in the prologue, it doesnt matter to the story at all.
>>740973623If you played more than 5 video games in your life you'll find it painfully mid.If you're some kind of SEAmonkey or sudaca shitskin with Paris syndrome this will be the best game you ever experienced
>>740973623It's a good game, Ser.

Parry system: the movie: the game.
>>740979825t. brown tendie going back to play his bing bing wahoos on the port machine 2
This game is ruined by Santa Barbara instead of a plot, and realism instead of anime graphics.
>he fell for the parryslop movie game
>>740978390I hated the intro so much I almost dropped the game there. I only began enjoying myself after the game finally toned down the cutscenes and allowed the gameplay to take over. So actually late game was the best part and what made it memorable for me.
I find it so funny that this inoffensive AA game is more hated by the average gamer than any cash grab GaaS from EA.it's like the most evil game ever created.
>>740998517You can't shill something to oblivion and not expect equivalent pushback.
>>740973623I love it. Alongside Legend of Dragoon and FFVII Remake, it's one of the best RPGs
>>740977058I'm brown and gay and I absolutely love it.
>>740977058>browns make a thing>whitoids co-opt it as a wh*te thing because they want to fit inMany such cases!
>>740998653>Parrying is the core mechanic that decides if you win or lose a battle>Unbalanced stats making investment in character a non-choice>Damage cap rendering most skills that don't multi-hit useless>Only one status effect is worth using>One character is clearly overpowered>Secret bosses poorly implementedGood music and high fidelity graphics alone don't make a game one of the best in its genre.
>>740973623/v/ doesn't play games, so all the retards mocking it haven't played it either; they're all simply jumping on the hate train because it's popular to hate on something that's popular. Enjoy the game and have fun figuring out broken team comps. If you play it multiple times, you can get baguette weapons from the starter area and pickup stronger stat versions of the pictos (ability equips) you found initially. In the starter area, make you you spam the dialogue of the couple having sex in the building so you get a lumina point (points you use on characters so you can equip more pictos).
>>740998714based desu
>>740998517it isn't hated tho
>>740999068>make you youmake sure* youJust to clarify, the pictos are not in the starter area; they're found in the same places throughout the world and levels.
>parryslop
>>740999152it's hated by 4chin chuds and xitter palestine zoomersit's over
>>740973623>unc playing last year's games you're too old amd slow for vidya, find another hobby
>>740999246he said average gamesalso, people here generally do not hate it, mostly just loud retarded tendies and wokie raiders
Here's your gameplay, the devs even mock you by calling that superboss Simon. Not a single RPG mechanic matters in the game, there is no reason to explore or collect items because the parry mechanic invalidates everything. You're just going to be memorising animations and pressing the button in time over and over to a point where the combat becomes so exhausting you actively avoid it.The story is essentially a modern doctor who episode that really really really insists upon itself.

>>740999068>/v/ doesn't play games, so all the retards mocking it haven't played it either; they're all simply jumping on the hate train because it's popular to hate on something that's popular.That's true for the most part, but the game really doesn't stand up to scrutiny.The issue isn't that the game is bad, it's good and even great at times. But it has been repeatedly presented as the second coming of Christ when other older games are superior in many aspects.It doesn't help that the game was tailor made to suit game journalists' tastes.
>>740999475>tailor made to suit game journalists' tastescome on now
>>740999432>really really really insists upon itself.what does that even mean? is the latest ebin xitter buzzword?
>>740973623>if i don't like itThat won't happen if you have a soul
>>740999494>"Indie" studio>Journalists repeatedly reward games with a prevalent parry mechanic>Abundance of cutscenes>Safe character designs and story
>>740999692>>Safe character designs and storyI didn't see anyone like pic rel in the game
>>740999692>Safe storynigger, they literally kill their main protagonist mid game which is the opposite of safe story for your audience. design committees would never allow something like this for ex
So did OP die or his he still playing?
>>740999827he liked it
>>740999475>The issue isn't that the game is bad, it's good and even great at times.don't be a cuck, as a videogame this is atrocious. All of the praise is for the story and characters which is more subjective, as you implied the writing and performances were very awardbait. I didn't find the story or characters to be sincere or interesting, didn't get hooked.What I can critique objectively are the gameplay elements which are very bad. >>740999548You know what I mean. An example I will give is singers at talent shows that belt out powernotes for every single lyric, or guitarists that shred from start to finish. Impressive to judges but nobody is going to be actively listening to or enjoying that, it's too much wank.That's what E33 is, trying to make every piece of dialogue a touching speech, having an obnoxiously loud score blare over every scene where it doesn't belong, having an artstyle be maximalist dreck.It's amateurish slop to glance at for a moment, not long
>>740999746There is a difference between safe and blatant DEI>>740999806Killing or writing off the male lead has been a popular trend in Hollywood for over 10 years now
>>740999914>There is a difference between safe and blatant DEIWe were talking about appealing to video game journalists. Again, come on now, you're not fooling anyone
OP here, just got to the part where French Robert Pattinson dies and gets replaced by French Clive RosfieldBesides the overlong intro, the game so far feels like a prettier unc ps2 rpg but extremely french, also i'm only 21 and i'm missing almost every riposte, is it over for me?Also the 16 year old sounds 10 years older.Does not deserve an autistic rant yet.
>>740999914>Killing or writing off the male lead has been a popular trend in Hollywood for over 10 years nowwe're talking about video games where the male lead is extremely important to audiences as they self insert. that's why so few games killed their main lead midgame (I can only think of 4)
>>740999994>as they self insertshut the fuck up
>>740999940The roster is 3 women including the main character/focus of the story, a literal husk of a man and a monster
>>741000074All of which as not ugly. Try again.
>>741000182*are
>>740999981>i'm missing almost every riposte, is it over for me?Mostly yes. You're supposed to parry everything, but some of the fastest attacks that are too hard to react to (they deal significantly less damage than slower moves).
>>740977058What? It's the opposite.Or is this how far games have fallen, is this the new normal?I refunded it within the steam refund time limit.It's been 10 hours, so I guess I'm not spoinign OP. The first 2 hours were dindus evrywhere, MC is a pathetic coward modern male, saved by srong minotiry woman. That's where I quit.
>>741000340I finished the game with just Dodge and never felt like I was punished for not bothering with Parry. Except for that one optional Chromatic boss, but you can probably get around even that with the picto that lets you go first.
My problem with anti E33 fags is they're like this nigger: zoomies larping as jarpig gatekeepers when they only play the most mainstream slop like Xenoshit.
why are gcj falseflaggers so mad about this game
>>741000497when is gcj never not mad
>>740999874>don't be a cuck, as a videogame this is atrocious. The list of grievances one can have against E33's gameplay are long, but a game can be good even with subpar gameplay.>>741000434Said male gets killed, then gets replaced by another male who's strongest wish is to die.Yet people on here argue this game's story and characters aren't written to be safe for game journalists.
>>741000523they always are, but they shift their focus depending on priority
>>740973623Y-YOU FELL FOR IT!!
>>741000496>zoomies larping as jarpig gatekeepers when they only play the most mainstream slop like Xenoshit.They can't help being retarded, all they had to play for a long time was XC2 and NuFE.
I didn't care for the gameplay but the story and voice acting was really good, which makes it a top 10 game for me.
>>741000606>game's story and characters aren't written to be safe for game journalistsEven though the whole story is about Alicia and Aline being retarded and wrong?
>>741001082Rare honest and balanced take
>>741001082Same, but I really like the gameplay actually
>>740973623>Caving to paid surrender shill monkeys
>>741000496The only parallel i can think of is characters barely reaching adulthood before dying due to PLOT, the rest you have grasp at straws, though the Gommage is a lot more brutal than the turn into light cerimony.Xeno 3 sux anyways to be honest
>>741000496I thought E33 was supposed to be FF Tactics Advance
>>740998517>taking retarded contrarians seriously dumb greenskin
>>740998973>there is a skill component to the combat >different weapons scale with different things >damage cap increases the viability of certain abilities in the early late game >ask 3 people which character is the OP one and you'll get 3 different answers >same thing for the useful status effect >I lost against a secret boss All those complaints feel a bit shallow because they compare the game to some hypothetical perfect game rather than others in the genre. Like the average JRPG doesn't have parrying decide your fate, but instead makes it almost impossible to lose a fight no matter what.Also you can make a facetank build if you're too old, slow and terrible at video games to press a button at the right moment.
>>740999692They even had a black guy - who immediately died. Shut the fuck up, retard. You're just trying to fit in.
>>740999746Not a single woman with a partially shaved head either.

>>740998517A lot, a LOT, of browns revealed themselves on /v/ thanks to this game.
>>740973623Act 1 is garbageThe game clicks around the middle of Act 2 when you finally have a decent amount of options for team building and the story actually starts telling its story.Act 3 is one of the best postgames for an rpg Ive played in a long long time
E33 a shit
>>741007456this but all acts are one of the best acts i've ever played
>>740999432this right here is why I think the game is trash, it gives you a mechanic that bypasses all the other ones lol, frog brains are fucked
>>741006476>>741005105Nah. I'll just post more Twitter screencaps.
>>741000496Why are Xenofags so butthurt by E33?
>>740973623>he fell for the Jewish French psy oplol
>>741010560xenofags are coping because they were the rpg for people who hated rpgs but e33 demonstrates you don't need to settle with xenoshit.
I declare this thread for my wife, Clea
>>740974834You can just pirate it if you're this unsure.
>>741010835The only character I enjoyedI fear they'd ruin her if she starred in her own DLC or game
>>741000939Didn't they announce a Switch 2 version already?
