[Uplifting News] ''Sakuna Chronicles: Kokorowa and the Gears of Creation'' is out of development hell and drops a new trailer! Originally announced 3 years ago, the sequel to Sakuna of Rice and Ruin is finally coming! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rO_EXEeaJLA
Is Sakuna a cunny game or are they chibis?
>>751490038gameplay looks kinda ass and i doubt theres gonna be anything as satisfying as farming ricestill interested in how its gonna pan out
>>751490149Sakuna is an adult woman
Nice, I've been waiting to hear more about Kokorowa's game.
>>751490038No farming? Dropped.
>>751490038it's been so long. almost forgot about it
>>751490038gameplay very different as expected. stategy game i guess
>>751490038game might struggle. it's very different and 3 years might have been too long..
I've been meaning to replay Sakuna, but while I did manage to beat it before, I always got this nagging sense that I wasn't doing something right. Something always felt off.
>>751490149loli
>>751490038Why does everyone keep fucking Sakuna when they know she'll just beat their ass?
>>751492849the brattyness hides bringer of asskicking
>>751490038Hey great the first game is one of the worst games I've ever played so hopefully this new one is worth it.
Kokorowa and the ELECTRONIC OLD MANRUNNING THE WORLDA NEW AGE
>>751492556Did you try the brown rice method instead of the white rice?
>>751490708This. There has to be some mechanic that ties to Kokorowa akin to rice farming, like improving automaton manufacturing or something.
>>751490783Is the Sakuna anime worth watching, anon?
>>751492849I think he knows that she's strong. He just wants to surpass him. But Sakuna was strong even before she came to that island, and her experiences there turned her into a monster.
By the way, Edelweiss released a new update for the first game months ago for the PC version, but it's still not available in the public branch yet.
I eat my white rice with ketchup. I hope Sakuna forgives me.
>>751493261yes
>>751492556Making a magic build and doing a broom-only run?Also it's still fucking insane Sakuna's kids just fucked the shit out of each other and gave birth to a shitload of grandkids who are smaller clones of them (who will also presumably go on to fuck each other).
>>751493261not him but it's a fine watch.nothing groundbreaking and certainly on a budget but still worth a watch
>>751493346Eating JUST rice and ketchup is more than just a goddamn struggle meal, it's just plain depressing. Think she'd just pity you and pat you on the head with a sad, condescending look more than anything.
>>751493327When will it be released? I actually got the Switch version because I wanted a physical copy so maybe I'll play it on that.
So tower defense gameplay this time? I hope we get some smithing as a replacement for farming.
I just found out there was a mobile game but it EOS after 5 months. That's rough.https://youtu.be/WfGVbXuaXrI?si=YgKOStrAZEIffoRP
>>751493592what else are you supposed to eat with rice?
>>751490038I'm excited! And the gameplay looks interesting. Some kind of lane based strategy-RPG?
>>751493421...Kokorowa that seems kinda weird. This is weird, Kokorowa. What is this? What are you doing?
Cool.
>>751490038How dare they bully Lolirowa.
>>751493346that's grossuse soya sauce or salsa atleasti make rice, 3-5 dollops of salsa, some steamed mixed veggies and hotdogsmix it all together and its a poor mans stirfry my own creation
>>751493772Literally anything. Combine it with some peas and carrots, and diced onions, fry it up with an egg, BAM, fried rice.Eat it alongside cuts of any meat you want, it doesn't matter. Fish, chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, could be hearts and offals if you know how to cook those.You could also just buy packs of hot dogs and eat that alongside rice, or if you're too poor to somehow afford dollar packs of hotdogs, slices of ham/bologna can work too. Could even get those packs of sardines/tuna and eat those with rice right out of the tin.
>>751493327When the update hits the Switch version I'll resume my playthrough of it. I really enjoyed my time with the game. The controls and combat are real satisfying.
>>751493421>>751493891not weird at all... just..sleep....forever
>>751490038kokorowa my wife
>>751493772I absolutely love corn rice
wtf is corn rice
>>751494201I'm sorry Sakuna... but it's... KokorOver.
>>751493346I do that sometimes>>751494029I also sometimes mix both onions sauce and tomato sauce together.
Dat doe.
>>751494510ive never heard of onion sauce in my 45 yearsmust be a euro thingi considered tomato sauce on rice but it doesnt sound right to me, prefer it on pasta only
I just haven't felt any hype at all for this since it was announced. The whole appeal was Sakuna herself. Kokorowa is such a huge downgrade in every way.
>>751493346I did that with boiled eggs once and almost choked to death. Must have been divine punishment.
>>751493261Yes and the Kokorowa special episodes as well.
Even if it isn't rice. Can we expect some other kind of customization autism? I hope we do. Will we build our own workshop? And or customize the individual automatons? Also. I am not really expecting this. But will we even be able to freely deploy whatever automaton we want? If we can, it'd be more(but still rather distinct) of a traditional strategy game, but if there is an RNG element to it then couldn't effectively be some kind of "card" game? Do we have any idea?
>>751494887s o y sauce, for fuck's sake.
>>751494887Euro here, onion sauce is asian speciality, here I only know of garlic sauce that's common.
>>751494203
>>751493683Thankfully the whole story was uploaded to the official YouTube.https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDpLYb0WhdTo&si=5ibKOiD2N-g_2ove
>>751495050congrats on not reading.
>>751493683depressing but not unexpected
Kokorowa gathering new reference material, nothing to see here, move along now.
>>751493891>What are you doing?
The 1st one was kinda boring so I never even finished it.
>>751490038OG sakuna was stylistically charming with a brilliant idea that ended up being an unfathomably fisappointing case of wasted potential thanks to just a few retarded decisions clearly made to pander to casual gamers. Mainly the fact that the game never expects you to actually learn how to get good at growing rice. Got a shit harvest? Doesn't matter, you're still making progress albeit slowly. Got a harvest even worse than your last? Thematically, Sakuna's power should fall. A shit harvest should leave her completely impotent for the year. Instead, your shit harvest still contributes towards your metaprogression. So why bother trying to learn how to get a crop beyond barebones mediocrity if whatever you do ends up stacking towards you overlevelling yourself anyway?>>751493772>what else are you supposed to eat with potato?
>>751494890Knowing Japans shit taste they probably prefer Kokorowa, like the boring Yumifags that ruined Senran Kagura.
>>751499642at first. i expected it would be sakuna saving her in the trailer
>>751490783>Oh yeah, let's just casually insult the wargod loli what could possibly go wrong?What was he thinking?
i have not finished sakuna
you now know how Sakuna's hair works
>>751500610Didn't know her at all. He was just a scruffy bandit.I don't think Sakuna was a particularly famous deity down in the mortal realm.It's like how Myrthe described her in one dinner talk, about how she sees Sakuna as more of an "archangel" than a proper capital G God.Like, do we focus worship and praise Gabriel, for example? It's all Jesus and God for us.
>>751500893She looks better without the hair clip thingies.
>>751501156I don't think it is wise to insult anyone with the magic scarf thingy, because only gods have those.
>>751500834you should
>>751490038>sidescrolling action combat game mixed with detailed farming simulator>sequel appears to be a turn based squad strategy gamewhy?
>>751501156>do we focus worship and praise Gabriel, for example?The French used to be big on Saint and Angel worship back in the day, around Jeanne d'Arc's time or so.
>>751503968Because it's not really a sequel to Sakuna but instead just a new game in the same universe. The MC is Kokorowa this time and her thing is inventions, not farming. Her fighting style would be different and more like a summoner that directs from the backline so maybe they wanted to make gameplay that reflects that.
>>751490038Where's RF6Incompetent fucks
>DROPPED>>751503968honestly looks like what >>751493683 should have been
>>751503968They're very much a traditional Japanese comiket indie dev in terms of just making whatever they think is interesting. It's been like 20 years and I still want another ether vapor but it'll never happen.Sakuna blowing up like it did and getting the merch and agricultural partnerships and anime already set them up for life so I guess it's not too surprising they feel even less pressure to make a straight up sequel after how long sakuna took.
>>751490038Hell yeah brother, it's time for peak 2
>>751490038>Kokorowa game at lastYesYES!Sakuna was both insanely good and pure soul from start to finish so I have no doubt this game will exceed expectations too
>>751490038isn't the whole point of this the autistic rice farmingwill this have that too
>>751509707This is Kokorowa's game, she's an inventor goddess, not a war/harvest goddess like Sakuna.
>>751510229yeah that's what I mean, I remember the original only happened because the devs really liked rice farming. will this have something equivalent?
>>751510830They also just wanted to make a side-scrolling action RPG and they've made other games before Sakuna as well. We don't know much about what game systems/mechanics Kokorowa's game will have but maybe there will be an inventing system or something.
KOKOROWA!!!!
>>751511167
>>751512196Is Sakuna autistic?
>>751490038>turn-based strategy gameThere goes my interest
>>751513289she's real
>>751490038>XSEEDkekClaude retranslate this shit!
>>751490038Kokorowa's so cool.
>>751512196Her getting picked up right afterwards was fucking hilarious, the VA really knows how to be a whiny bitch in the best way
>>751493261it's too wholesome
Unfortunate. I was hoping for a European barley goddess that brews beer
>>751500893simpler than you think
>>751506817>They're very much a traditional Japanese comiket indie dev in terms of just making whatever they think is interesting.gotta respect they are not tied down to make similar sequels at least
>>751490038>tactical rpgded
I feel like the game won't be quite the same without rice autism
>>751515056true.wonder if it will have something like it
>>751493772Pickled foods like kimchi, takuan, zhacai, etc.
>>751514238She's the gremlin master
I played Sakuna on release and I'm happy they decided to give more focus to Kokorowa in the anime and now with her own game. Both her and Sakuna are cuties, especially together. I like both action games and turn based games so I'm looking forward to this.
>>751505384>>751506817If you want to make something new and different your name should reflect that. When you name your product Belt Spanner 2, you set an expectation of not making a Flower Vase.
>>751516906Good thing it's not called Sakuna 2.
>>751516906Did you not look at the OP image? It's not called Sakuna 2 and is very clearly titled as a Kokorowa spinoff gsme.
>>751493772>fish>vegetables>pork>beef>egg>fucking spam
>>751516975>>751517080The name Sakuna is clearly in the title.
>>751490038>That fluffy anthro womanSexo
>>751500195There was already a scene like that in the Kokorowa novel/special anime episodes as a flashback to when they first met. This time I suppose they wanted to establish Kokorowa's mentor/apparent antagonist but I'd love if there were more flashbacks to Kokorowa and Sakuna as little girls.
Does the anime add anything new? Why did the manga translations stop? Do i need to play that dmm kokorowa game?
>>751519836>Does the anime add anything new?Mostly just expanded Kokorowa's role, if you never played the game you might think she became playable as a co-op character in the second half.
>>751516071I just hope it keeps the farmingautomated farming is what I wanted when they were sequel baiting at the end of the game
>>751519836>Does the anime add anything new?Some minor things like the humans joining in some of the adventures, like Myrthe having a somewhat central plot regarding the kappas during the river arc and we see her without her habit during the fight against demon catfish >>751501156Also Sakuna talks more about wanting to find out what happened to her parents, where the game focused more on Sakuna being a brat and wanting to get the mission over as quick as possible.In the game you find the missing piece of Tama and are able to reforge him without killing him. Anime they do not find the missing piece (until very end) and adds a bit of drama by Tama having himself be reforged without Sakuna's knowledge. Tama is fucking dead! For a time.
>>751520460>In the game you find the missing piece of Tama and are able to reforge him without killing him. Anime they do not find the missing piece (until very end) and adds a bit of drama by Tama having himself be reforged without Sakuna's knowledge. Tama is fucking dead! For a time.This part was arguably better than in the game even though they most likely just did it that way because they were strapped for time.
>>751519836There's also few short flashback scenes featuring Sakuna's parentsback when they lived in the island, showing them more than just at very end.
>>751518726You have the unfortunate combo of having autism and a low IQ so you're extra retarded.
Let me go on dates with Sakuna in the Lofty Realm capital, Edelweiss.
>>751490038Making a completely different genre as their next game after garnering a bunch of fans for a certain game genre feels like such a big misstep as a game developer, I wanted more rice farming and side scrolling action game from these devs.
Lolibaba sexo
>>751520990Yes.
>>751494765porn when?
>>751520797>missteps I assume you haven't played any of the dev's other games?
>>751494765>>751521074It literally looks like a fucking deer just go watch the discovery channel if you want to see that shit. I will never understand furfags.
>since i was a childwait are sakuna and kokorowa not kids?
>>751521195They are adults.
>>751521195Theyre gods i think at least 100 years maybe a thousand.
Kokorowass
>>751493327yeah this would be a good time to go back and actually finish the original game
>>751521195If you approached Sakuna, she likely smells of liquor and delicious loli sweat.
Sunbaked adult body...
>>751521940very bottom heavy
Kinta, no! You cannot say that in [current year]!
>>751494765>we want the /k/ audience
>>751525804poor guy will get cancelled
>>751490038Hell yes, I loved the first game a lot, I hope this one comes out soon too. Sakuna is cute!!!
>>751490038What are some other cute anime style side scrollers like Sakuna?
This is rice.
>>751527896Fairy Bloom Freesia
>>751528002i wish i could have gotten the tama plush
Are they gay for each other?
>>751490038I haven't even played Of RIce and Ruin because I don't want to do any of the rice farming shit.The combat seems good though. I watched a bunch of boss and combo videos and it overall seems to have a well-made and fun combat system.I hope this sequel gets rid of the rice farming shit.
>>751493346Same but with mayonnaise. It's surprisingly not that bad.
>>751528970The rice farming is the best part
Rice?
>>751530458oh man I love rice haha please post more rice
>>751530458I'd plow her rice fields if you know what I'm saying.
>>751490038FUCKING YESYEAR SAVED
Is this one of the kids from that old manga or is he a new characters? I'm not crazy on having to catch up on side media.
>>751531321Seems like a wholly new character.
>>751532472is that a real video game she is playing?
>>751533050It's Lode Runner.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySLmLSzw454
>>751536329what game is this?
>>751537667Metallic Child.Sakuna is just a DLC cosmetic for it. On Steam.Game is essentially isometric roguelike Megaman.Procedually generated levels with occasional mini challenges for temporary upgrades and you fight a big boss at end of a stage to steal their power.
>>751537667Metallic Child
>>751537895>>751537891oooh they have her too
>>751493592More than depressing, it's a significant health risk depending on what your region considers "white rice" and whether you're rinsing it. The Asian equivalent of scurvy was caused by certain lower class occupations adopting all white rice diets.
>>751528858Yes. Warning: spoiler contains extremely erotic content.
>>751490038The gameplay looks slow as molasses. I kind of figured she would get a game about building blueprints and physics or something to contrast with sakuna rice farming
>>751537891>>751531321Welp, another one for the wishlist
>>751528002is it though....
>>751493327Is this coming to switch?
>>751490038vaporware.
Good to hear. Shall continue to wait warmly.
>>751545596poor girlhow can you resist Sakuna?
>>751546446she can't
>>751493421The anime was made by yurifags or something? I don't remember Kokorowa and Sakuna being like that in the game.
i like sakuna a lot and it was my goty but i'm not too excited for this game seeing that it's a tactics jrpg.
>>751549418it's Omizuchi trying to kill Sakuna in a dream
>>751549418That's an anime-original scene where Sakuna gets hypnotized by Orochi into experiencing her ideal world without toil and suffering. She snaps out of it when she sees her rice, so it's not real but >The anime was made by yurifags or something?I got this feeling anyway since they added plenty of other, actual interactions such as Sakuna coming across Kokorowa first when she walks through the grain field in the epilogue and running to hug her.
>>751550023*Omizuchi. I got my wires crossed there.
>>751520009>Kokorowa's role>Read as kokorowasroweGod I hate her name. It's like that one image where she makes the kokokokokorororowawawawa noises cursed me
>>751550643Gogorowa meeting Chawotte fwom Twails of Mana.
>>751549418That scene is a fake dream sequence but the anime does expand on Kokorowa as a character since she didn't get as much screen-time in the game. In the process of doing this however, it gives more focus on the relationship between the two which does end up pandering to people that like them together and it's wonderful.
Anyone collect Sakuna stuff?
>>751552270lovely collection
>>751552270no nendo?
>>751552270I only have the Pop Up Parade, extremely high quality for the standard of the line. I do have the game's LE.
>>751552494I do but she hasn't been unboxed.>>751552376Thanks anon.
>>751552705>I do but she hasn't been unboxed.get that bitch out the box
She had a fangame which was fun.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3025860/%E3%82%B3%E3%82%B3%E3%83%AD%E3%83%AF%E3%83%92%E3%83%A1%E3%81%8A%E3%81%AB%E3%81%8E%E3%82%8A%E3%82%92%E5%B1%8A%E3%81%91%E3%82%8B%E3%81%AE%E5%B7%BB_Kokorowa_Onigiri_Delivery/
>>751493327That's cool. This is one of the most wholesome games I've ever played, and this update would be a great reason for another playthrough.
>>751554446they even made some official modern day Sakuna comics
>>751494987are they ever going to be more than just friends? Kokorawa seems to have a crush on Sakuna after a certain point in the game
Where's my new Freesia game?
>>751554635Doubt, Sakuna has rice for brains.
I would have sex with Sakuna if you know what I mean
>>751554635I mean, Sakuna started having wet dreams about her so yeah, probably.
I hope they trade off for rice autism is doll making autism.
>>751555201Yeah, I've been wondering if there will be something like unit customization by placing gears inside your robots in great detail.
CHAOS PLANTING
>>751555201Inb4 the strongest doll is one that looks like Sakuna>>751555608I haven't heard that in years....
>>751552270Anon... what did you do with the rice plant the middle one is supposed to hold in her left hand?
>>751556442He made rice from it.
>>751555201something like that
>>751556404>"Kokorowa, please explain to me why you made a life-sized, anatomically accurate karakuri doll of me>"It's uhh.. for battle.."
is edelweiss still considered doujin?
thoughts on rice?
>>751557039you know she will
>>751557772but of course
probably her ultimate warrior
>>751554709Isn't she the Goddess of Gods in the Sakuna game? Just with a different name?
>>751560095yup
>>751552270no paper craft sakuna with hoe action
>>751490038that trailer looks boring as fuck
>>751563094but deer sexo>>751563050someone post the webm
>>751493327>>751493612>>751494125You'd think they'd prioritize the Switch version given Nintendo put them in Smash Bros
>>751564765My hopium is that they're making a full-on Switch 2 upgrade.
>>751563963
fragile bird
Looks lame and not satisfying to play. I say this as a fan of the 1st game, which had satisfying combat and "unique" rice farming gameplay. I'll probably check reviews and still try it anyway. If only they made karakawa a summoner but with the action gameplay of sakuna retained. Replace the rice farming minigame with a thematic building/automation one.
>>751564765Well. Chances are that they are. The thing is. The update is in "beta". You can only do the opt-in beta thing on steam. But when the update officially launches? I'd be very shocked if the Switch doesn't get it day 1.
>>751569972I wish the art existed without the logo. It looks so pretty.
>>751520563Sakuna's mom is cute
dutch nun
I dont understand the gameplay of Kokorowa. Build dolls and its a positional rpg?
>>751577349it's not clearly explained yet
>>751563050>>751563319Took me long enough to find it
>>751578409kokorowa's strongest automata
>>751578937would be funny if they 1 to 1 included it
>>751490038Why bother calling it a Sakuna game when they never show any feed or seed.The whole selling point of the first game was the farming, cause it sure as fuck wasn't the combat.
>>751552270Just rice.
>>751493772>Rice with ketchupdisgusting poverty food, don't do this>Rice with egg and ketchupFood of the gods, Sugoi Oishii RAISU OMORTETTO!
>>751579424It's because they hate you.
>>751579424The selling point was a varity of things and combat was one of them. It did turn out fun as well. You have severe autism if the tiny "Sakuna chronicles" in the title is bothering you that much.
