What made it such a great JRPG?
Getting astroturfed to hell and back
>>746810349It's the Cowboy Bebop of JRPGs: aimed at people who like the concept but hate how the Japanese do it.
>Japanese Role-Playing Game>it's not JapaneseI hate that I'm witnessing the death of language in real time.
>>746810349Being made by French people, cause they're just better at everything
>>746810349Gnostic Freemason symbolism
Sorry this happened again /vg/ is going too hard on him rn.
>>746810496Astroturfed =/ game I don’t like, btw
>>746810349Great looking characters, beautiful world (artistic for obvious reasons), intriguing story. Decent mechanics within the turn based system (parries, dodges, etc). No DEI bullshit
>>746810706Jrpg never meant anything. Otherwise people would be saying jsrpg, jtrpg, jarpg, etc.
>>746810496>no mention of Silksong >crimson desert isn’t number 1Imaging making a poll and then voting multiple times on it to force a top answer lol
>>746810349Not a JRPG
>>746810349>French>Is still a JRPGWhites are superior to Asians in that field.
>>746810496Any troll with VPN can skew the poll.You're a subhuman for posting this.
>>746810349>What made it such a great JRPG?Big head mode enabled at all times like classic video games or super deformed jrpgs.
>>746810765What about being invaded by Germans and Muslims?
>>746810496E33 will go down in history as one of the greatest RPGs ever made. Cope
>>746810349>What made it such a great JRPG?Better Pacing than 95% of JRPGsBetter Combat than 85% of JRPGsBetter Story than 80% of JRPGsBetter Visuals than 100% of JRPGs
>>746811431They're better at that too
>rpgthis really means nothing anymore
>>746810634Sounds based to me
>>746810634The new earthbound pretty much.
>>746810706Yea, westerners don't have turn based party rpgs, 4niar games are all jrpgs. The J never meant it was made in japan, just that it's in the style of a traditional japanese rpg.
>>746810496fpwp>>746811482Based
>>746810706It's like american football. It's still called american football if I play it in Sweden.
>>746811576Video games have never had role playing
>>746810496>>746810496filtereded
the dude is a fan of star odyssey
>>746811604This.
>>746810496cattle reply. e33 was the game of the people, not of the industry and the media which didn't want it. the reaction faces at the game awards confirmed that.
>>746810349>made by french fags>Japanese rpg?
>>746813761and? jprg is a genre.
This game litteraly made kojimmies shit his panties, that's how based it is.
>>746810349It's just a return to the good old basics, with a nice, original look and feel. The only thing I really hate about it is the Unreal Engine 5. They should've kept using version 4.The constant shimmering, noise and blur gets on my nerves.
>>746810496FPBP
>>746810349The only possible way anyone would think it's a great RPG is if they have been purposely avoiding the genre for about 20 years.All the 6/10 and 7/10 reviews explained it and they all said the exact same thing - the game does absolutely nothing that hasn't been done 1000 times already.
>>746816012It has an actual good story so there's that.
>>746810930>beautiful worldIt's ugly as sin. Absolutely grotesque art direction.>Great looking charactersGeneric looking characters based on real life actors. You can't get anything more boring than that.>intriguing storyNonsensical plot, with emotionally manipulative and shmaltzy characterisation aimed at women.>Decent mechanicsTaken from 5th generation RPGs. You'd know this if you'd bothered to play any games in the last 20 years.
>>746816116All of its story beats are stolen. The only good things about the game are background environments and Maelle's ass.
>>746810349no pedo weeb shit
It's a WRPG, not a FRPG.
>>746810349It committed to being a JRPG rather than a diet dating sim, watered down hack and slash, or open world offline MMO.In other words, it was brave enough to be a JRPG in a world of bandwagoners.
>>746810706Retards unironically think RPGs being turned based means its a JRPG
>>746816303It's parryslop so not really. Another turn based game where stats don't matter because you can avoid 100% of damage.
>>746816012There hasn't been a single good jarpig in 20 years, nigger.The last good jarpigs I played were shadow hearts covenant and maybe the last remnant >inb4 zoomer faggotslop like xenoblade or personakill yourself
>>746816116Good dialogue writing compared to most other videogames across all genres,but a story that is fundamentally the same as those of the JRPGs that inspired it, which in a sense means that it's a rather faithful love letter.You know, "God is actually alive and real and to blame for a lot of stuff - we've only fully found this out in the last chunk of the story, haha! - so we might have to kill him".>>746816443Read his post again.
>>746810634So a jrpg without all the anime bullshit?No wonder it was so good
>>746816624I read his faggot post:>they have been purposely avoiding the genre for about 20 years.this implies there have been great jarpigs in the last 20 years which isn't the case, it's moslty zoomer trannyslop or nuJRPG for niggers (persona)
>>746816436imagine saying this about literally any other genre of game
>>746810349Stupid people
>>746810349it has European fantasy soul which nobody else can do since it's native to their culture. Japan tries to imitate it, USA is a golem culture without it. when it happens you get GotYs like this, Baldur's Gate and Witcher 3. in a nutshell, Euros wrap an RPG around a philosophical idea. Americans wrap an RPG around contemporary politics. and Japan wraps an RPG around whatever popular anime and manga is currently selling the most.
>>746810349Its not even in the top 10
>>746816858literally thiseuropeans are the only soulful people on earth
>>746811604>>746813568>>746816714You're all faggots and nothing of value would be lost if you were dead.>>746816225It has a sexualized 16 year old girl though which is based
>>746816903>Pokémon: whatever!>nuZelda>Half Life but redditI bet you love sucking dicks.
>>746817171>good games?!?!>faggot!
>>746810349Nothing. JRPGs always have terrible gameplay and this is no excpetion.
>>746816304Turn based + 3 to 6 niggas in a row + you kill god = jrpg
Good gameplay and character building for a "traditional JRPG", well written characters and story, good music. It has the 3 major tenets of what people look for in an RPG of this nature. Anyone who pretends otherwise is just some shitposter trying to make the game's existence/success into some weird west vs. east battle or new bad old good fuckery.It's definitely not the best game ever by any means, but it is a high tier game.
>>746817082Buttblasted anime weeb
>>746810349As a veteran of the genre it's just outstanding in so many ways. I recently replayed Final Fantasy X, the first real fight was just you selecting "Attack" over and over again, in E33 you are getting your head smashed in by a mime, forcing you to instantly engage with the combat system. The writing doesn't waste time, but immediately grabs you, every conversation, every sentence adds a new detail to the setting, the issues it faces and your characters' motivation. Add some great character designs, an amazing soundtrack, a good story, and you've got yourself an amazing game.
>>746810706>>746816304It's a JRPG because it has Alice.
>>746816903It clearly belongs in the top 3 of JRPGs right behind left 4 dead and Half Life 2.
>>746810496>/v/jeets seething to this day e33 is so based
It's a good game. While being visually pleasing.
>>746810349>"""J"""RPG
>>746816012>All the 6/10 and 7/10 reviewsThe people who think that E33 is a mediocre game are the people I can take the least seriously. I understand the people who are praising it and I can kinda see that if you are a very dull-minded person that you are not going to connect with what the game is going for, so you'll think it's shit. >the game does absolutely nothing that hasn't been done 1000 times alreadyThe combat is a breath of non-gay air and the fact that people have to go back to some 20-year-old game to find anything similar proves it. A game can also be great because it's doing what it's doing very well. Retards like you can always find excuses as to why something isn't innovative enough. Name an innovative game.
>>746816220>it's a story wher people are doing things, kinda like in spongebob I think that you haven't played expedition 33 and that you haven't played the game you think it's ripping off either.
>>746810634Weird, the people around me who praise that game the most are oldfags who have spent the last 10 years grumbling about all new games being shit.
>>746819454J'Francais Role Playing Game
>>746819609Such people probably also tell you that new anime is shit.
>>746819660Has anything good come out recently? I have kinda given up on anime around the time when /a/ got overrun by South-Americans.
it just was kino, like good 2000-something kino.even if it aped other games it was refreshing in a sea of open world template games that have nothing to say.
>>746819761last tranime i watched was kill la kill.just so fucking slop overall.also /a/ turned to shit in 2013 with snk.
>>746812156Americans only call it football retard JRPGs are called that even in Japan for a reason
>>746820434JRPG is called 'action command RPG' in japan, tourist retard.
Astroturfed to hell ai generated game about frogs with some racially ambiguous harem. Gaudy and convoluted it’s perfect for people that pretend like they have good taste (people who act like they know what fine art is). Similar to folks who pretend to enjoy A24 films and pretend like they enjoy certain genres of music.
>>746816443>E33tard hates every other JRPG Why are they like this?
It was okay I suppose but those here praising the writing like it’s the best thing ever as opposed to pretty decent for a video game should read a book (no, not your generic genreslop)
>>746821295because i'm not a xitter zoomer nigger like you
