Why do games have a bigger tourist problem than any other medium?
Funkos are the worst way to collect a character
mindless cattle. pretending toy companies are art collectives.
>>748904782If you unironically buy toys and you are older than 6 years old you should commit suicide
Jack Bros. Frost is better.>Hee a hoo ha shyah!!!
>>748904839but enough about videogames
they don't, you just think they do because it's what you interact with the most- oh, who am i kidding, you're a tourist to by the looks of this post. let me rephrase, you just think they do because it's the identity you chose to attach your normalfag skinwalking behavior to, it could've been anything, movies, books, comics, cartoons, crafts, whatever. i would argue movies, especially "nerdy" movies, have more tourists since they are easier to consume, and so do books recently because kids are so illiterate they think reading a book is a big accomplishment and want asspats just for skimming one. leave your hivebox now and then
>>748904839Toys are better than women.
>>748904883>words words wordsthe left can’t meme
Games have a big 'tourist' problem because vidya is easily accessible and has a wide variety of titles that encompass a wide variety of interests. Film also has a similar problem with a bunch of people who watch whatever MCU slop is in theaters and call themselves big film buffs.I prefer 'tourists' to a hobby than performative faggots and posers. People who brag about reading books are universally insufferable and I hope they are all trapped in a shit-stained cell and the only way out is to actually finish a real novel.

>>748905667In hindsight it makes sense a JJK fan getting into persona is fucking clueless about the franchise mascot
>>748904692>Why do games have a bigger tourist problem than any other medium?>he doesn't remember Ramones/Nirvana girls
>>748904692What does your picture have to do with a tourist? He's asking a question about the series. That's clearly a newbie.
>>748905667i have yet to see a JJK fan demonstrate more than 60 iq. Gege Akutami should be lynched for what he unleashed into the world

>>748908781I don’t know. I was just saying that to be edgy.
>>748908736Useless greeble that makes the figure seems more expensive than it is.
>>748905590>>748904692kill these fucking retarded niggers
>>748904692wow that looks terrible
>>748908736SMTV design, they added those stupid white highlights and removed the little bells in his collar
>>748904692SMT is slowly reaching the mainstream, I bet we'll see jack frost in fortnite as one of those little sidekick things.
>>748911998I'd only want him if threatens murder or suicide to other players
>>748904839I can’t commit to anything
>>748904839you should start practicing what you preach
>>748905780Frost is a funny snowman, Pyro is a funny jack-o-lantern, while Ripper is a skeleton with a knife inspired by a mildly controversial figure. He's just inherently less marketable.Well, that, and the fact that the PS2 Megatens didn't feel the need to include him, denying him a 3D model
>>748912403I don't buy toys tho
>>748911998Since Persona has reached mainstream first, SMT is always be known as Persona's big brother.
>>748905590How can someone be an industry plant if he was there since megami tensei 2?
>>748912639He confuses the word "mascot" with "industry plant"
>>748912639Look at their profile pictures and usernames. Do you think those animals have functioning brains?
SNES or PSX versions of smt1 and 2?
>>748904878I prefer old SMT Jack Frost.
>>748904692Because games have become bigger than even movies, so hollyjew types and beancounters have jumped shipGames used to be made by nerds for nerds. Nowadays they're designed by committee and development is steered via focus groups, which ruins everything
>>748905590>industry plantwhat?does this guy even understand what that term means?
>>748913358SMT isn't the case, otherwise Baal and Moloch would be the good guys
>>748905590This is an embarrassing low for persona “fans.” This might even be worse than persona fans. Even 4&5 fans know Jack Frost has deeper significance than being called industry plants.
>>748913197PSX versions have more QoL like not having to consult the manual for item descriptions, so that one. The item appraiser will complain about how he no longer has a job though.
>>7489048397yo bros... it's over
Calling Jack frost an industry plant is like calling Yoshi an industry plant but even worse.
>>748905590/a/ was right about shonentards.
>>748912489>Jack-o'-LanternI don't care that's it's original name. Pyro Jack sounds way better.
>>748913761Pikachu is a better example>Random low level enemy that "inexplicably" gets a lot of marketingEvery series has a mascot
>>748913871Focus on "was" because modern /a/ is just shounentards.
>>748913871>the most mainstream part of a hobby is the one filled with retardsIt's really not rocket science, man.
>>748905590these are secondaries
>>748904692Hes right, Jack Frost is a worthless meme character and SMT fags desperate attempt at pretending they've got Pokémon at home.
>>748914821>zoom zoom zoomyeah we get it, you’re underaged and a retard.
They don't, you're just more invested in vidya. Posers have been clowned on since basically the inception of music, comics have consistently been fucked over by speculators and moviefags since the 90s, every nerd niche has been getting invaded by scalpers, casuals, and fake fans since it became more and more chic to play at these hobbies. This isn't special to games, you just don't care about anything else.
>>748914751Tertiaries more like it
>>748915008Not an argument smtfag. Jack Frost is gay and SMT is never catching on. You can have Persona 7 as a treat
>>748914751Not even secondaries. Perona is the most larped video game series of all time. They're secondaries of secondaries of secondaries. It's secondary inception
>>748904692Hee-hoo bitch
>>748904692are you guys too young to have went through gamergate? /v/ was basically ground zero and it was going very well until a sudden influx of hundreds of shills who turned it into a man vs. woman thing (the very thing /v/ was trying to prevent) and then it forcefully flipped tye culture of the hobby upside down for nerds looking for more nerd cred because they got into all that during the huge super hero boom around that time. the industry had to have them ad their main audience. the old audience thinks too muchit happened to every major media and comic books gave the most resistance. entertainment is huge. it was all set up to fall one by one. all other media had their "gamergate" as well. the trayvon martin case wasn't enough. it was the set up for the world we have today
>>748915106You have to be 18+ to post here, kiddo. Wait until you finish up high school and then post.
>>748904839My adult toys are not made for children
>>748915237i'm almost forty and persona and SMT are for weak faggots
>>748915237>still no argumentSMT grognards btfo. Tokyo Mirage Sessions 2 confirmed
>>748913197I did smt1 in the SNES and and now I'm playing SmT2 on the SNES, the experience have been 10/10 so far
>>748915317you have to say that it's already been casualized and that their jap overlords are seeking a global audience now. and tell them they aren't japanese and that they're part of the global audience
>>748915363and now I'm playing*
>>748915168>Fans who experience it vicariously through e-celebs>Fans who only played 5>Fans who only played 3-5I was gonna say those who experienced 1&2 are secondaries, but the gap between 1&2 and SMT is very small anyway since if you played them you already probably played several SMT games to begin with. I’ve never seen anyone shun a 1&2 fan the way they shun 3-5.
>>748915579You forgot the layer of playing the remakes.
>>748912489At least he was in IV IVA, i hope he is in P6 or SMT6
>>748915317>failed fire emblem crossover gamelol
>>748915579Persona 1 and 2 are extremely fucking difficult like smt1 and 2 are, that's why.
>>748913197Psx for both but smt2 ps1 translation was a bit slower than smt1 as it was the first time it was released, i think these days it it's much better
>>>/twatter/, personafaggot
>>748915848>difficultNot the PSP version of 2, which got casualized to hell and back.
>>748913197Play the originals on the SNES like God intended
>>748904692>bigger tourist problem>posts a twitter picture on 4shit
>>748915848>smt1>p2>extremely difficulty HUH? Smt1 is just zio and status bullets spam in 98% of the game and P2EP its easier to talk about what does not break the game
>>748904850>illiterate>makes a grammatical error in their postPot meet kettle, you are both brown
>>748904692Why do they always ask social media instead of doing their own research? Sheer helplessness.
>>748904692>>748905590>blackwashed avatar>jujutsu kaisenI hate blacks so much
>>748904692Why buy this shit when he has a nendo?
>>748916243Oops i meant P2IS, EP is a bit more balanced
>>7489155791&2 descend directly from an SMT game.
>>748916243Okay show me a game as hard and complicated as smt1, just one. Protip, I'm not waiting
megaten is harder than shin megaten
>>748916583Console limitations but yes, that is correct.
>>748916343Anya sex
>>748916501Hard wise Smt if, world of sloth alone is already such a drag that you will want to die in real life, also Akira's routeFor complicated smt2 and also if are a bit more complicated
>>748916892No game in existance is as fucking insane and complicated as The Cathedral end game maze in SMT1, this is undebatable btw. No other game in existance has made players drop a game after spending 40 to 50 hours and then reaching The Cathedral.
I honestly only know this character from the Virtual Boy game
>>748917241The cathedral is literally one of the starter "dungeons" of smt2 bro you need to explore that shit to advance the plot, and only the first floor of smt1 cathedral is bad, the way up to lawfags or down to chaosfags is pretty chill, and that not counting how the random encounters in the cathedral are weak as fuck
It's telling that not a single person here can answer the question and just resorts to insulting the person for asking it in the first place
>>748904839Funny that you say this and yet you haven't done it since video games are toys too you know.All forms of entertainment are for children at the end of the dayMusic and TV also count as entertainment for children
>>748917561also books and trading cards every single form of entertainment is for kids
>>748917546Wrong. Go play the game (SMT1 on the SNES) instead of watching someone play it zoom zoom.
>>748917614classic broad-brush bad take
>>748917548People can deny it but Jack Frost was pushed because "muh funny ice demon", Pixie and Black Frodt are 100 times better
>>748917707Pixie is too sexualized to be a mascot (and thar's a good thing), Black Frost is just Jack possed by Satan.
>>748904692I wonder the same thing, but I only played smt3-5 and sj, and persona 3 and 4.
>>748917890Play smt1 and 2, you're missing pure ludokinocinema
>>748917694what I'm trying to say is who fucking cares lmao
>>748904692Always Jack Frost but never my nigga King Frost, ruling from on high with the Hee Holy powers granted to him.
>>748917686Wrong in what way? Post your smt1 save file right now faggot or admit you're a larper
>>748917791the west's calvinist roots stifle the success of games like smt and artists like kaneko. sexuality is a critical aspect of the franchise.
>>748917890In SMT1 he was a fodder but SMT2 had a King Frost boss fight and stuff
>>748905590>industry plantHe was popular from the get-go he's not Luna Snow or some shit.
>>748917791Satan Jack Frost is peak, bro even resists/drain fire and also uses fire
>>748917548Ask stupid questions, get stupid answers. It's like asking why YGO fans like Blue-Eyes or Black Magician Girl.
i curse this thread.
>>748905590>he do be finna lookin fine brah>HOW DARE THAT NIGGER Never change /v/
>than any other mediumNo way it’s probably comic books MAYBE tabletop gaming and it isn’t even fucking close.
>>748918353Fuck you
>>748918353He lost the Jack, he is just Frost now
>>748904692I've played through every Persona, both MTs, and every SMT up to if... and I don't have an answer for this. He's just got a fun design. Its like asking why the Dragon Quest slime or Pikachu are popular.
>>748904692Streamers
>>748918046Concession accepted little zoom zoom go back to "watching".
>>748918393To be fair, he didn’t know why Jack Frost was so big and people are more upset at the guy calling him an industry plant.
>>748918607>File 1 : Before The Cathedral>File 2 : After The CathedralBasado
>>748918046NTA but that dungeon is ass cancer unless you have something that can turn off encounters, and even then its still a slog to walk up and down 15 floors. Unironically I would rather redo the Sloth dungeon in if... without emulator speedup than go through 1's final dungeon again.
>>748918892No other game in all of the existance of gaming has such an insane dungeon as The Cathedral, this is coming from someone who played it emulated with 400 frame skip speed up and not using the spell that avoids enemy encounters Esmegma
>>748913229>fatimagine how many human males could fit in there...
>>748918607Nah fuck you, its just the first floor that its bad, the rest is chill and not worse than anything we did before>>748918892The encounters can be autoable really easy, after you start going up or down its really easy
>>748918353AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
>>748918247Lol he rekt me the first time I meet him in Sm3 Nocturne, I was amazed at his use of fire. Good stuff.
>>748919073I would argue SMT SJ dungeons are a bit worse, especially that one with teleporters
>>748919331at his reflection of fire*
>>748918892>Unironically I would rather redo the Sloth dungeon in if... without emulator speedup than go through 1's final dungeon again.You got balls bro
>>748919159The whole game is piss easy, nerve bullets are brokenly overpowered. The dungeon isn't hard at all, its just tedious having to fight 3-5 back to back encounters every ten fucking steps. No amount of emulator speed up in the world could make that tolerable.
>>748919961That its fair, i even stopped play for some days when i got to the cathedral
>>748909402>SMTVPersona 5, actually.
>>748920034After clearing Floor 1 I just used a Wall Hack cheat code from there on, fuck that lmao.
>>748920412retard
>>748920662And where are the bells on these little guys?
>>748920662They are canonically using the Amigo Pancho from smt2 there btw
>>7489207203d jackfrost never had bells, the white highlight was a SMTV thing, then it became the norm in the modern games
>>748920412P5R was still the original, P3R Jack is also the same so i think persona might just change in P6 if they do >>748920720Oh you mean the bells, that one i think it was P4
>>748920762Damn you're right, I never noticed.
>>748904839I can't, I have a nendo and a figma coming in the mail and have to pick them up or they'll send them back
>>748913229based, imagine saying this to a tranny
>>748904839goku and vegeta have to defend rem at all costs
Social media is like this in general these days.>"I'm such a DMC fan">has only seen Vergil meme edits
>>748916243Smt1 is fairly difficult until that stupid maze inside the heroines' brain where the difficulty peaks. After that it is pretty easy sailing.
>>748920762how have I never noticed this, probably removed it because of too many 3d balls wourld rape the FPS or somethingthe smile is still on the cap from the original art
>>748904692>Why is the company mascot the one getting merch and fansDunno bud ask pikachuEven on non-MegaTen stuff he appears in cameos (e.g. Etrian Odyssey 2), and on merchandise he's the symbol on the authenticity sticker at the moment.
>>748921071Even fucking Metaphor had him, i am surprised if Atlus never made him cameo in Trauma Center too
>>748905590
>>748909402why is it getting worse?
>>748921545I think the current white one is a bit better than the 3D one, also i prefered the original King Frost
>>748921174Some editions of their logo use him on it too. I think the guy in the xitter screenshot is just baiting, if he's played any fatlus shit he knows Jack Frost is the company mascot.
>>748904692So the Amigo Poncho is the hat Jack Frost uses, but wht fuck are the Happy Sandals from, are they referencing Jesus Christ?
>>748913404Does literally anybody that uses that term? It doesn't even really mean anything.
>>748904692Not Jack Frost related but to this day i still wonder why Samsara is not in mainline SMT, Preach is fun but they could give Daisoujou Samsara too
>>748922136What does Samsara does?
>>748904692is this tourism or is this just someone who's knows of the series asking a question
>>748922225Its like die for me but light instead of darkness
>>748922118One context i can think of it that was well used was pic related, bro was getting pushed and pushed and pushed to be one of the mains like Goku and Luffy but bro just flopped and disappeared
>>748904692https://youtube.com/watch?v=M_gKI9y23TA&t=13s
>>748918556You almost got it at the last bit there. He's Atlus's mascot, even outside of MegaTen, in the same way Pikachu is for TPC.
>>748920762they actually modelled them for soul hackers 2, i guess to match the soul hackers design
>>748905590God fuck persona for inviting these clueless niggers into the fandom who's apparently allergic to very basic ass research IE: just asking a ai assistant a question
>>748923123>IE: just asking a ai assistant a questionEh
>>748923272Fucking gemini was able to answer it he could've just done that and save himself from looking like a clueless nigger
>>748923603Anthropic shill.You can literally google jack frost atlus and the first fucking wiki link (that isn't fandom) immediately says he's the atlus mascot
>>748923123>Asking an AI assistantIt's gonna be a rough two weeks until Oct 14th ends.
>>748923742Look I'm just saying that it doesn't take that much fucking research just to answer a very fucking basic question
>>748909402They only used this design in 5V every other game hes been broght back to his usual self.But yeah fuck posers. my little nigga deserves thier money and attention and the Magatsuhi of thier very souls for this transgression.
>>748923884Aye fair He asked because he wants attention though.
>>748922307If he knew the series he wouldn’t be asking
>>748904692vidya is the only medium where consumption requires active participation instead of being able to just sit back and watch some shit
>>748925001To be fair its like watching a sequel of a movie and asking why is x a important character, megaten mostly isn't sequels but some elements are shared
>>748924881"knows of" implies he isn't familiar with the series and isn't a fan but knows of its existence and some other aspects of it ESL-kun
>>748920976ok but what if I come in and make my bionicle hump her (takadox, mantis-man cyborg) while they're distracted
>>748904692>/v/ falling for Twitter engagement farming ragebait>OP purposely cropped out the number of likes and retweetsGay and retarded board
>>748925001Anon, many companies have announced "transmedia" ventures, which include cultivating an audience of video game fans who "haven't actively played the games but engage in community discussion in spaces surrounding the game and other forms of media related to it" (aka secondaries)
>>748926894i don't know why you're saying that like that has any bearing on what i said

This is the most secondary post I've ever read.
I wanna fuck jack frost
>>748931141Ew
>>748930352I think its because they focus more on the whole race than Jack Frost solo, like you get Black Frost, King frost, frost 5, that one with the SJ armor, the nahobino one and so on, the original one though is one of the earliest sources of mind charge and he also jokes about being the mascot
Resident Evil has the most larps ever.

>>748937072Gotta be honest, comics might be the one hobby where the secondary media is vastly better than the source.
>>748937278Actually you're wrong. Batman probably has the highest quality adaptations of any capeshit with the Animated series, the Burton movies, and the Nolan trilogy. Even then Dark Knight Returns, Year One, Killing Joke are at worst equal. Superman's books like Kingdom Come, All-Star Superman mog the movies, most Spiderman movies and shows suck ass, etc.

>>748942046>industry plantHow does that even work when he's made by Atlus themselves, to promote Atlus shit, and is their official mascot and has been on the face of SMT shit since the '90s? You ESL retards have no idea what words mean anymore.
>>748941906The amount of Breath of the wild niggas that would say stuff like>"Zelda expert plays Ocarina of time for the first time">Is Majora's Mask impossible without a guide?>It's a direct sequel to Zelda 2!

>>748942208>he's made by Atlus themselves, to promote Atlus shit, and is their official mascot and has been on the face of SMT shit since the '90s? Aka the definition of an industry plant.
>>748941530it is very typical of atlus to make an entire game and remove the download for it a little while later

>>748942395He is albeit>>748942445No. Natural organic mascot = not an industry plantUnnatural forsed mascot = industry plant
>>748942546You speak my tongue. I've become increasingly jaded in the world of nerd and am starting to identify with this asshole
>>748942546>Every "fandom" is just full of cringe faggots looking for cheap likes on social mediaThe problem is and always has been adsense. Get rid of the ad bucks and 99% of the clout chasers will disappear overnight. The other big problem is undisclosed sponsorships (i.e. stealth ads, astroturfing). The FTC can rip them a new one for attempting to pull that
>>748942703Your problem is assuming they're nerds in the first place
>>748912639What >>748913048 said.They're niggers.
>>748942738They aren't nerds, but they're still in your neighborhood and won't fuck off. Most recent convention I talked to a guy in a Wario costume because I like Wario land and wanted to talk about it, bro didn't even play any of the games. He just picked him in Smash brothers, his single worst depiction. I wanted to cry, you can easily play like half of the games on the Switch there's no excuse.
>>748942703Comic book guy was made at a time where people didn't larp as much as today, people lost their shame, bro became a hero with time
>>748942943When pop culture is the only culture, normalfags larp to have a community. So where does that lead us? To this website.
>>748913404in music it used to mean an artist positioned as independent/grassroots but secretly has industry backingfuck knows what it means in the context of a game developed by a corporation
>>748934389More than SMT?
>>748904692Usually these shitter threads aren't worth posting, but I feel I have to stress it's a shame how Persona's success has dragged in lore averse fans, because MT and SMT were built off exploring folklore.The books and games are by no means a cultural lesson but you still get a glimpse at human civilization through mythological, religious, cryptid and folk figures, instead of pop psych high school bullshit.
>>748943097>instead of pop psych high school bullshitIronic you cry about larpers then practically admit you know nothing about Persona.
>>748943097I played some of the SMT3 remake, evolved pixie, killed matador in the sewers, then got bored. I have nothing to contribute to the series as it's not for me, but still lurk these threads in case erotic art of Morgana or Jack Frost gets posted.
>>748943154Bro will have a aneurysm when he sees that fucking P4 and P5 got heavy references and homages to megami tensei and SMT2, at the end he became the larper
What do i play after SMTV and 3
>>748943414IV and IVA
>>748943154>>748943338>P4 and P5 got heavy references and homages to megami tensei and SMT2Allusions and references are worthless.Setting determines everything. Persona has deviated more and more from SMT since If/
>>748943438>handheld slopNo
>>748943504>Persona has deviated more and more from SMT since If/Yeah I'm going to pretend demon negotiations are in Persona 5 and not in 3 and 4 because they're being less like SMT. Makes sense to me!
>>748943438Emulate Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2
>>748943504How so? P1 and P2 had negotiations, guns and demons, P3 and P4 went a bit different but guns, demons and negotiations came back in P5, making it a bit less unique while in return it went back to SMT roots
I would like a Persona 2 remake because the gameplay is shit but man I can absolutely tell it would get a cancerous modern fanbase because of bisexual Tatsuya
>>748943712Whatever little fans Persona 2 has is already full of faggots saying the faggot route would be the most canonically correct romance. Keep the games dead.
>>748943712P2 would be called woke and Tatsuya just called gay instead of BI, the discourse would be quite entertaining
>>748943801Well it is gay to like men. No such thing as bisexual for men. You suck one dick but fuck 10 women. You're fucking gay for sucking a dick. Bisexual is cope.
>>748943587>>748943672>NegotiationsYou both already knew how so when setting was mentioned.Soul Hackers 2 is to Devil Summoner what Persona is to MT.
>>748943856MT is nothing, little brother. MT is a dead universe and timeline. It all starts at SMT 1. There is no Devil Summoning program created by Nakajima in SMT nor Persona timelines. It's dead, Jim.
>>748904692many people care more about the act of fandom than the thing the fandoms are supposedly centered on. but that twitter screencap has nothing to do with the subject at hand, that person is not a fan looking in at the property and asking a question about it
>>748905409I don't buy videogames.
>>748943846What if you have a three way with a man and a woman
>>748943414>>748943508SJ is good is you are willing swallow your pride, I would also reccommend SMT I and II or DDS
>>748943712It'll never get a remake because they can't force a calendar system like the nusonas.
>>748943978Are you touching the guy in any way? Then it's gay. Are you double penetrating the whore? Gay if you touch. Gay if the feeling of his cock through her whore body is making you feel good. Gay if any eye contact.
>>748944556Even with socks?
>>748904692>Why do games have a bigger tourist problem than any other medium?you're retarded if you think this is a bigger problem in vidya than in film
>>7489434141 and 2. people here like 4 alot but I don't, it's my least favorite after vanilla V.
>P6 Mc ultimate persona might be MasakadoAnd now we might get our SMTIV or SMT2 again homage
>>748915047G4 is why I got Yakuza 1 and later 2 on the PS2
>>748944754PS2 Yakuzas were magical, i honestly didn't even knew they were open world, also i never finished them at the time
>>748944923Did you like Mark Hamill's Majima or did you somehow play them in JP?
>>748944941I played it dubbed, i found it a bit too funny for my taste but it was enjoyable if only for the funny shit, but JP is too iconic for me these days
>>7489449411 was in English when I got 2 I was confused as it was the first video game I ever played that had no English dub
october 2026.. i am forgotten (by atlus)
>>748945271T-Trust P6 or SMTVI
>>748943712Nah, Maya is the "canon" option and Lisa simps for Tatsuya just like Rise for Yu. Only fujos care about Jun. It's not like FeMC's fanbase is cancerous because you can date Aigis and Elizabeth in P3P - it still is but for different reasons.
>>748945670Doesn't really matter in the long run really since Tatsuya gets the most cucked ending of any protagonist. Yes, I'd argue it's an even worser fate than Makoto's.
N-
>>748949040Hee-hoo
>>748949040
>>748949040Despite making up only 6% of the population, Black Frosts instigate 78% of Jack on Jack violence.
>>748904692Gaming is interactive, which is an extra layer to it that many other mediums don't have and by itself is even a barrier of entry. Many people don't actually care about "their hobby" and are only in it to kill time or to get with what's trendy, so this barrier is enough to filter them. They will happily watch someone else play or will happily just consume "gaming" in some other vicarious way. This is why you get secondaries and tertiaries.
>>748949619Sasuga Emperor!
>>748904839I'm 39 and my Snail shell wolf knight girl just arrived.Are you gonna shit and piss your diapies now?
>>748905780>>748904692I prefer the original Jack Frost.New one is kinda over designed.
>>748904692I am a Persona fan I fapped to that Satonaka_Chie girl many times before
>>748917890>>748917942I've played smt 1 and 2 and only thing i remember was machine tier translation and Thor dropping a nuke on Japan. I can't believe we never got an official, human translation or remake, since companies can't stop doing those now.
>>748922583Toriko is such a shame, it was a very good manga with potential, they just expected it to be the next one piece for some reason. Toei is the one that really went balls deep with the shilling, with a shitty ass anime to go with it.Jump is now doing the same with Ichi, if you read jump you'd think that manga is the next one piece and yet it sells like 90k copies in a month (one piece does 10 times that).
>>748916383Normalfags don't know about Nendos.
>>748904692I mean its a valid question why did they pick him as a mascot.Wouldnt Cerberus make more sense?
>>748920976Cute
>>748904883Ignoring the fact this guy is acting like an absolute faggot; the gist of what he is saying is absolutely correct. Posers have always existed across all mediums and hobbies.
>>748904692>why does this silly little mascot with round shapes and multiple versions get a funko but Omoikane doesn't?
>>748904692Ironically the ones claiming they're "locals" were the original tourists, the mass immigrants. You know the kind. The -babbies.Skyrimbabbies, RE4babbies, BOTWbabbies. Witcher3babbies. Fallout3/4babbies etc.
>>748950496He cute, fat and looks like his head is completely empty while also managing to break the fourth wall and be a fucking asshole at times.
>>748918353Looks like the ghost of a fat gay vampire.
>>748923884We need a Let Me Grok That For You website
>>748913404>zoomers>understanding the words they use
Here's you actual industry plant.
>>748943438I shit talk the 3DS and it's mediocre library every chance I get but yeah, these are gemmies. Even if IV is a bit easy past the two ball busting first bosses.
>>748937072>wearing a Batman t-shirt to a party>girl asks if I like Batman>say "Kinda" because I'm exactly that massive casual secondary that only watches the movies, cartoons, games but doesn't actually read comics>she gives me a dirty look and leavesI ain't larping as a primary. A shirt is just a shirt.
>>748951327Sold more than all SMT games combined t h o.
>>748951881Eat shit billions of flies something something
>>748948945anon nobody would fight you on that, most obvious worst ending ever shit
>>748941906It's really seeing how far gay shippers will go
>>748949040Why is he so big?
>>748952958He's possed by satan
>>748920662>>748920814Persona really looks like pure shit.
>>748953252Its made for another generation
>>748953284I guess so.But it was always shit, even the first one on the psx. I genuinely don't get it, the gameplay is terrible and it's endless, trivial drama.
why does he look like he's balding
He leaked Persona 6...
>>748904692I've met multiple people across my life who had "SAVE FERRIS" shirts who had never seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off before. The tourist problem can always get worse. Vidya's tourist problem is nothing compared to actual popular culture and media.
I like Jack Frost because he's a goofball that can turn into a psycho on a dime.
>>748904839Fuck you my Gundams and Legos are cool :(
>>748954337>t.
thanks for the twitter screenshot ragebait thread for your daily reactionary propaganda dose, i guess
>>748904692has there ever been one time a niggerfied avi had a good opinion on anything
>>748904692>Why do games have a bigger tourist problem than any other medium?because it makes more money than any other genre of entertainment and because of that has brought in libtard feminist tranny and racists to push their politicial agendas and corpo cock suckers who push this shit thinking it will reach more demographics other than the core fan baseonly way this shit ends is if franchises fall and people get fired and second iterations without gay shit is made and sells its happening at xbox, gears of war now needs to fail for their studio to get mass lay offs to remove the tranny feminist slop from their game
>>748904692>WhyIt's a culmination of tertiary groups>People who don't play games, but are fans of "content creators" that regular make content for games, and have vicariously experienced said games without touching a controller>People who aren't invested in the slightest, but they see something pop up in their social media feed and are hopelessly addicted to "commenting" on every fucking post they see before they continue scrolling>People who are maliciously trying to disrupt and corrupt discussion surrounding a game for ulterior motives, like what happened with the Hogwarts game>Jeets
>>748905780>What ever happened to Jack Ripper?He never got a 3D model, and Atlus fucking hates making new models
>>748904692Morgana is the face of SMT franchise.
>>748904839I would say 11.
>>748935880Amiibos are like 15 bucks and more detailed thats why I own a few for characters like Shulk who will never get a figure otherwise
>>7489137158yo here should I just end it
>>748943963It isn't really a dead timeline, the Digital Devil Story is just it's own branch that's no longer explored. I wouldn't even call it unrelated to SMT, since Nakajima is the one who gave Pascal to the SMT1 Protagonist and makes cameos every so often in other games.
>>748904692
>>748935880I’d rather spend twenty dollars on an action figure that actually looks like the character than eight dollars on an ugly bobblehead made out of cheap vinyl.
>>748967658Yeah but for most consoomers and normalfags that was cheap enough to impulse buy.
OK but why is he so pushed and popular thO?
