Why did Lollipop Chainsaw fail (twice) to be part of the sexy action genre icons like Bayonetta or Stellar Blade?
>>742782371I bought it and played it for like 3 hours and I'll tell you why. It's fucking boring.
>>742782371Because despite what retarded anti censorship porn addicts want you to believe, they don't buy games. Stellar Blade and Nier Automata had good stories, gameplay and clothing options. Lolipop Chainsaw is just something browns would jerk off to with nothing else to offer.
because the game is shit. theres no reason to play these dogshit games when you can just jerk it to a webm and move on
>>742782697>and clothing optionsLollipop does have clothing options>>742782371Look anon l only played the og version on xbox 360, and that game is extremely short and has terrible camera angles sometimes, and the most important the game didn't had an arcade mode where you can just kill endless zombies, so there was nothing to do after beating the game, l don't know if they fixed it in repop>>742782880Couldn't we say the same about gacha games?
>>742783075>Couldn't we say the same about gacha games?yes we could. i genuinely fail to see a reason to actually play this shit. just looking up porn of the characters is all you need to do. genuinely baffling that people play this shit
>>742782371it's not a very good action gamestill fun though
>>742783442I always recommend koikatsu in gacha threads, l really don't get why they play a gambling game just because of the fanservice
>>742782371She's too generic. A cheerleader in high school? Come on
>>742782371her gameplay is shit and there are better action games with chainsaw-wielding girls
>>742783786>gambling answered your own question anongambling exploits flaws in the human psyche to generate addiction.
>>742782371It was bad at release as well. Zero depth to the combat and it wasnt even framed as a fanservice game at launch. It was going for "BUT UR A GIRL?"
>>742783931could never concentrate on the game I was too distracted by her legs
>>742783786That's what gacha antis don't understand about the games. Fanservice is on top of the game you already enjoy. It makes normalfags seethe out of their mind when people actually enjoy the gameplay, story, or grind behind games like Uma, GFL, any hoyo game and png 4niggas in a row combat games. They don't require your full attention and are good for something to do/read on the side. 99.9% of people aren't play gacha games to jerk off, so koikatsu is a pointless recommendation.
>>742784104Funny because l never suffered from it>>742784484>99.9% of people aren't play gacha games to jerk off, so koikatsu is a pointless recommendation.Citation needed here, because gacha threads here go full on fanservice, but never on other aspects of the game, also>They don't require your full attentionWhich is strange since you have to do dailies and use the gambling mechanic even if you don't put money in there necessarily
Barely legal characters will creep out many.
>>742782371Game was all style and no substance. Even NMH with its shitty gameplay was doung some interesting shit with its story, themes, and dumb ass minigames. Lolipop... didn't really have anything beyond a cool vibe.
>>742784835>threads hereAre made by porn addicts who don't play the games. Any gacha that gains traction via discussions gets pruned and banned with a message about generals going on /vg/ which if you go to, you'll see all gacha games are filled with discussions on story, events, meta/competitive set ups, how to male xyz work, new players asking for info, with fan service being sidelined or just used as an attention catch for a post. /v/ is simply not a discussion board, It's a soft porn board. >dailies etcDailies are usually a brain off thing. I could click through menus blindly on certain game dailies at this point. The gambling has become more and more optional as the years go on. Most to all content can be done f2p and the most popular games are selling you based on design rather than powercreep. The bulk majority of gacha spenders are anni only, meaning they spend 30-60$ a year(price of a game or a bunch of older decent games on sale) on anniversary gems/tickets. Any more than that is maybe the $5 a month subscription gem cards. Gacha misinfo and hate on this website are so overblown it's actually unreal, considering the average intelligence should be at least enough to research things on your own
>>742782371It’s janky but not kino janky like NMH, just janky
>>742787476thats because you like dicks
I always thought lollipop chainsaw was a cult classic? Kind of like deadly premonition or killer 7 or some shit.
>>742782371Any sexy game should have hot female enemies that grapple you, grope you and try to strip you not generic ugly beasts or zombies.
>>742782371Capcom
Low budget tittle with bad animations and jank gameplay
>>742787570Nice projection
>>742782371It didnt interest me because i knew the sexiest part was just the cover. Compare it to blades of time.
>>742784835I played fgo up until 2024 because I used to read fate stuff on fanfiction.net (still do, actually). And started counterside because it looked similar gameplay-wise to the epic war flash games (it's not) - but I stayed around for a few years because of my guild leader and members. Love him, but god damn, he was sensitive. Eventually he just up and left, and so did I.
the game isn't iconic because its characters and story are one-dimensional and it leans much harder into humor and pop culture references than ghm's other games. it definitely has james gunn's touch for better or worse.if it was a better GAME it might have been a little more popular. it's clunkier and more meticulous than no more heroes and killer is dead. but it doesn't really matter how much impact it left because both the original and the shitty remaster sold well enough to be commercial successes.
Same reason why onechambara didn't.
If the fanservice peaks at the cover art its a bad fanservice game.
>>742782371>see kolipop chainsaw ad>wow Jessica Nigri is hot and I want to lick her tummy>get the game>wtf this bitch looks way less hot>refund to buy 1 copy of cod and 2 copies of last years fifa
>>742782371It's like all Suda games. 10/10 presentation, character designs and music, with 5/10 gameplay.
too janky? idk really
>>742782371It's a pretty mediocre action game and Juliet is kinda mehShe's not ugly or anything, just not very interesting as a design and dressing her up in sluttier outfits doesn't help muchBayo had good mechanics in Bayo 1 that elevated it despite Kamiya's best efforts at killing it with his faggy arcade autismStellar Blade had ShitUp's high production values and absurdly detailed models along with mechanics that are "fine enough" to keep people playing while staring at Eve's assPlus both Bayo and Eve just have more interesting and memorable designs than "blond cheerleader with pigtails"The sludgy American grindcringe writing is also just not very appealing to anyone besides Gen Xers and some boomers
>>742782371does this shit looks sexy enough to you? it looks like someone's middle aged mom trying to be 'sexy' and 'seduce the nerds'
>>742785938Ok, so gacha games don't hold itself only for fanservice, that's a good info, but if the game doesn't hold itself for fanservice, what hold it?After all what a gacha games can offer than a standalone game can't?>>742789017There is a gacha touhou out there, l would give it a try if it wasn't gacha since l like touhou
>>742782371It's not as deep mechanically to be part of the cuhrayzee crowd, let alone comparable to Bayonetta.It didn't have the budget or controversy that made Stellar Blade stand outThe most notable thing about it was some cosplay.
>>742791050Why not try it then? Drop it if you don't like it. As long as you don't have a gambling problem.
>>742782371I don't think a high schooler, especially dressed as one, could take off as a sex icon in the west as easily.
>>742783931game name?
>>742791787Looks like "big sister sword fighting z (ja)" according to my ai.
>>742782371Because it was exactly like a Suda51 game.>Inventive in-your-face opening>crazy gameplay/characters/cutscenes that keeps topping itself>hour 3 and it's already blown it's load>have 6 more hours of the same thing but now without the initial excitement.I beat the PS3 version way back when it launched, and it was 2 hours of really cool unique ideas that then get reused with minor changes for the remaining 8 hours.
>>742782371Not enough support for Manyuu Hikenchou cosplay.
Is the lighting still fucked up compared to the original game? Why does every single remaster fuck up the lighting?
Curse of Suda unfortunately.
Speaking of Stellar Blade>box puzzle requires I drag 2 boxes all the way on the opposite side you find them on>have to collect 2 more>then need to drag all 4 backREEE
>>742795541just use that modded fat ass to solve the puzzle
>>742782371The game is incredible short, which was something that upset me greatly when I bought the PS3 version a long time ago. Also, Mr. Morikawa should have his own spin-off game, dude is legendary.
>>742796048Hey thanks anon that worked.
>>742796776kek

>>742782371>american setting>slutty mc>shit game in generalwho knows
>>742797723Default settings. Just outfit, hair, face mods.
since it's still on sale, sell me on stellar blade. i don't mind if it's a coomer game i just wanna know if the game justifies the price. $40 isn't a bad price desu
>>742782371It's mechanically very shallow. Bayonetta and Stellar Blade (and Nier) have a lot going on besides the gooning aspects. I did like the vibe of the game though, very cheesy and pulpy. Forgot how much I missed that kind of straightforward humor. I only played it last year and had a good time.
>>742798268Absolutely. Story is fairly simple but decent, gameplay is super fun, if you don't mind a lot of focus on parrying and perfect dodges, and the sound and music are incredible. The art direction is also surprisingly solid; a lot of people recognized Stellar Blade 2 from the first few seconds before the character was shown just based on the style of music and the design of the city. There is this odd kind of melancholy that the game constantly communicates that's a little hard to quantify. It's not like Nier where the melodrama is heightened and it's very character focused, but the world feels broken in a way that I think is conveyed really well.
>>742798268It's good fun. It got a bit of growing pains in the beginning though, but think of gameplay as Nier for level navigation, and Sekiro for hard on combat. the game gives you a fuck ton of tools to use though.
Honestly, the game was kind of bad. I say this as a day-one purchaser on both 360 and PC. It was fun in a campy way but when I think about the tractor section, the arcade stuff etc I don't want to replay it like I do SB (which I have played 4 times) or Automata which I have played 3 times.
>>742782697>had good stories, gameplay
>>742782371>ass too sharp 1/10
>>742782371No chink money to get jeets to shill it endlessly on /v/ and twitter.
>>742782371Because it's not a good game.
what the fuck does "Shield" mean in stellar blade
She was too old
I played the better game.
>>742782371Because Juliet is actually attractive, and troons don't like that. Bayonetta looks like every troon's YouTube pfp. Eve looks like someone slapped a wig on a Barbie doll and called it a day.
>>742800117>Because Juliet is actually attractive, and troons don't like thatNot back in fucking 2012 they didn't, idiot. DEI and LGB propoganda wasn't wide spread until about 2-3 years later. The people who disliked LPC were roasties. ugly women, and biblethumpers. Same with Bayo.
>>742797664Explains all the normalfag game posts on the catalog.
>>742782371Suda crawled up his own ass around that time and his games were never very good after he tried to go mainstream
>>742782371>smellar balde>icongame is just as bad as lollipop chainsaw
>>742782371It's mediocre as fuck the only fun thing about it is the soundtrack.
>>742801068Lollipop Chainsaw is actually a pretty solid beatemupish game with a lot of good humor.
>>742801226I liked the writing i thought it was fun.
>>742782371Design didn't stand out much.
>>742782371it's not a very good game and the cheerleader bimbo americana theme doesn't appeal to many
>>742803234>high school stadiums are packed on friday nights>the men there are watching the cheerleadersNigga you gay.
>>742803476i uh don't go to high school sports events to ogle the cheerleaders anon

>>742803569anon repop specifically attempted to sell itself on the "uncensored" anti-woke pandering angle
>>742792281embarrassingly wrong, please kill yourself
>>742782371I woud buy it, but i think they cut some of the osts, wich was half the entertainment.ROCK AND ROLL
>>742790009Except this isn't a Suda game. It was made by Grasshopper but the script and designs aren't theirs. It was written by James Gunn.
>>742804873>James Gunn.The pedophile?
>>742804752There's a mod. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3330806935
>>742804992How should I know? He's director irc.
>>742782697>Stellar Blade had a good story
>>742782371it had cringe writing
>>742798268for $40 i'd say it's worth it if you're a gooner. it's a solid 6.5/10 game with combat that's much less in depth than /v/ would have you believe and side content that's straight out of assassins creed (boring filler garbage) but it's not bad. elevate it to a 7-8/10 if you are terminally horny
>>742782697>Lolipop Chainsaw is just something browns would jerk offLolipop Chainsaw existed far before your retarded brown meme talking point existed.
What's the best way to play the original game these days? Last I checked Xenia is still a flaming bag of fecal matter.
>>742806110Runs good in RPCS3, but RePOP is faster and looks better.
>>742784484Gacha gameplay is rarely any good. Mostly they thrive off of leading you around with the carrot that is the gambling. Otherwise it's just an inordinate amount of time wasted doing some manner of mindless daily/weekly/monthly grind. The story is never good either.Kinda like how Duet Night Abyss's gimmick was that it's a gacha game without the gacha, and it got tossed immediately.Probably the only ones I liked the gameplay of were Uma and Arknights (not Endfield that was trash). I do hope AK releases an offline version when it goes EoS
>>742784484meanwhile gacha "players"
>>742782371It was too horny safe and not really erotic at all.
>>742782371The heroine does nothing to me despite being technically sexy.She's unironically too normal.>>742782697>Stellar Blade and Nier AutomataYou mean the games that were shat on for being "sexist" and having "unrealistic heroines" and suddenly became empowering for women when they turned out to be success?You can also add Bayo to that list.Turns out that porn addict DO buy games, faggot.
Most Grasshopper games suck ass.Most Suda games suck ass.Combined, you get shit.
>>742782371Flat ass
>>742803841No, you lying sack of shit, they literally didn't know if they had to censor and were pretty open about it:https://www.gematsu.com/2022/07/lollipop-chainsaw-remake-producer-message-addresses-concerns-regarding-changes>Finally, we learned after the announcement of Lollipop Chainsaw remake that many fans are worried about censorship in the game.>We have not yet discussed the issue with the platform holders yet, and thus cannot say anything about the topic, but what we can say is that we intend to negotiate with the platform holders to make it so that the game can be as close to the original version as possible.
>>742807697No, they don't. No one buying those games on release were sitting at their PC furiously masturbating. You're a culture warring retard who missed the point entirely.
>>742808053You're an even bigger retard for thinking that "porn addict" cannot play games for some reason.
>>742782371>Why did Bayonetta succeed (once) and fail (twice) to be part of the sexy action genre icons like Tomb Raider or Nier: Automata?You need to be a good game.Lollipop Chainsaw is a basic hack-and-slash with the sole novelty of playing as a sexy teenage girl in a gritty setting. Suda51 is known for his theme of "Kill the Past", but here it was only shown by the boyfriend needing to get over losing his body (Juliet loves him regardless) and the theatre/goth kid needing to get over his lack of relationships in high school. I could add the villains too, trying to accomplish what they could not when alive, but everyone and their mother has done that trope to death.
Suda51 can not make a game that's fun to play
>>742798268It's okay. It has a lot of section where it removes control from you because it's trying to be too cinematic, or has you run around empty stretches of land and the story is rather bad and predictable too.
>>742798917It was the first game I've played since Vindictus to actually play like it. I've missed the hell out of that game's combat philosophy. I don't know the specifics but some of DevCat had moved over to Shift Up and have been working on this series.
>>742798917>can't parry in Souls games to save my life>had zero issues with it in this
>>742782371the first time i didn't care because it wasn't NMH.the second time i didn't care because they removed all the good music.
>>742812289You get parry and dodge upgrades in SB that make it not "just easier" but "almost impossible to fuck up" that's probably why especially since the game isn't about combos like Devil May Cry and is about rotating through Tachy/Beta/Burst which you build up via dodges, parries and those other purple/blue fake outs whose names I forget
>>742782697>it was leftists who bought Stellar Bladesure thing Berg
>>742812289Souls games have bad combat>inb4 seething
>>742812543I voted for Obama both times and own SB on both PS5 and PC.
>>742782371Them losing music rights for repopped hurtI cant explain itJust doesnt scratch the itch like the first game4/10, not a buy even on sale
>>742812687Get with the times, sexualizing women and buying games that sexualize them is against your tribe code
>>742782371Boring design and that decapitated boyfriend thing was dumb. Onechanbara (Wii) did it way better.
>>742782371The game/environments were not that fun. Felt underbaked, like Onechanbara
>>742782371Everything I ever saw about the game mostly made it look kinda corny. This game proves that making a coomer action game is really a balancing act: You want a hot girl that still has the aura to do cool shit. If you make her too much of a bimbo, she loses that aura.
>>742808046why would they have to censor it, think with your big head
>>742813951Why would any game that got censored in the last 10 year?
>>742814349not a good answer, and by that i mean why would a no-excitement release that was less provocative than bayonetta have to specify they weren't going to censor itplaying people like a fucking fiddle is why
>>742814469>a no-excitement releaseDon't talk about things that happened before you were born.
>>742814620Congrats, anon, you're the only guy on the planet that was excited for Lollipop fucking Chainsaw.
mucho texto not enough pictos
>>742782697>Stellar Blade and Nier Automata had good stories, gameplay and clothing options.
>>742814738I never said I was excited for Lollipop Chainsaw.
>>742782371Metal gear rising is the reason no one even tries to do this type of game anymore. Its over. Go home. Nothing can ever beat that games memes.
>>742782697>>742814738actual retards on /v/ still flap their gums hahaha wow
>>742814813>people were excited for lollipop chainsaw!>not me of course but???
>>742782371Okay, but is it fun?
>>742813343The decapitated boyfriend to act as contextual narrator and humour factory was a perfectly fine idea, unfortunately the script writing sucked. Apart from (paraphrased from memory)Nick: This is fun! It almost makes me forget all my friends are dead!The rest of the dialog is like markov chain and then and then and then writing.
>>742782371>mallgal>zombies>2000s-style basicbitch character action and controlsAny one of the above of which is something that will hinder gaining traction in the 2020s. All of which together is basically one of the less-common blueprints for failure.>muh gambling addictsTrue-blue idiots and slopeheads fall back on this because they have no argument or explaination. Over 90% of gacha players spend zero dollars and zero cents on these games. The majority of the remaining 10% are lightweight dolphins who spend a little bit, maybe $10-15 or so. The actual whales and people doing the gambling are a tiny fraction.>b-but my gacha rolling even if free-If it was a matter of addiction, this would lead to spending to maintain the hit. In radically large numbers, it doesn't.
>>742784484Gacha as a cultural force only exists because of the feeling of being there live with the community for whatever shit they shovel out that particular week. That's it. It feeds people's mind worms by being eternally relevant and feeling like you're missing out if you stop. It's the women's television of this generation but aimed at men because there's tits.
>>742782371How did it fail?>It didn't sell as many copies as GTA, so it failedNo. The game did quite well for them when it came out. They didn't need it to sell millions upon millions.
>>742814973>Any one of the above of which is something that will hinder gaining traction in the 2020s.thank you for having some common sense. /v/'s collective IQ has dropped so hard and I'm not sure I can even blame turd worlders for it
>>742814916not reallythe most buzz this game ever had sas a censorship nontroversy when it was being re-released
>>742782371It's not a good game that's why. It's somewhere between shovelware and normal in gameplay. You can tell that just by looking at it, very western, main character is generic af, western devs can't do good action gameplay for shit.Also it's not particularly sexy because all the jokey (haha look how sexy I am), try-hard aspect puts people off rather more than appeal. It's like they're openly mocking you for being a sucker for the hetero male-gaze.
>>742782371>Or stellar bladeYou mean a coomer game that flopped so hard it halved the stocks of their own company?
>>742782371the tramp stamp is a dead givawaylolipop chainsaw leans into a stripper aesthetic popular with old, dusty harley davidson riders and people who go to hootersbayo and stellar are a less boomerish kind of look. eve wouldn't work at a strip club, getting naked for sailors going on deployment. she would have an OF
>>742785045why are we groomed like this
>>742782697>Because despite what retarded anti censorship porn addicts want you to believe, they don't buy gamesLeftism really is mental illness. You just took what is said about pro-censorship people, that they provably don't actually buy games, and threw it back at anti-censorship people in a "no u" fashion. Your mental illness is actually evil. You cannot be trusted in sociey. Pathological liars and manipulators are the most dangerous type of people, because they don't play fair. You're the type to be provided and cared for, then kill everyone in their sleep simply because the opportunity was there to steal from them.
>>742814469>not a good answerMore like not the answer you expected.>playing people like a fucking fiddle is whyThis is still a far cry from your original point that is>>742803841>repop specifically attempted to sell itself on the "uncensored" anti-woke pandering angleJust admit that you were full of shit.

>>742814909Well, we aren't talking about me, we're talking about the general gaming world. Whether I was excited or not doesn't really matter, I'm just one person.
>>742815269The price halved because investors wanted more gacha instead of another console game.
