>>564309281Funniest shit would be if they do a reset back to the GV1 era and not do anything with the fan favorites. It's all just OCs except for GV and a few cameos.
So that instead of having an MC that's part of the problem you can have an MC that's the whole problem?>>564308783
>>564313295Funniest shit would be if they do a reset back to the GV1 era and still don't show what the fuck Zeno's septima does.
They should give Roll a Diana costume in 12.
>>564313937It has already been decided that they have nothing to do with each other>>564088162>>564088292
>>564314671One does have to wonder how fast Capcom will bleed that IP dry. It was rather OK but I don't think that is an idea worth more than a single videogame.
>>564314825That's a question for a different thread
>>564314825They wont, it was mere practice for legends 3
>>564313773No, you'd still be a regular dude that gets given magic angel orgasm powers.If you could actually go toe to toe with your opponents due to your septima then it defeats the whole point.
>>564311536Liar.
>>564315171Considering septimosome might be angel or demon blood, would populaura and pheremone shot even work on them?
>>564314825They just need to make more little girl robots and they will sell millions.Although I liked Emily more than Diana desu.
>>564315171He's talking about the number of new adepts such game will result on. Also on that note, imagine a lust frenzied Isola.
are you all shooting the shit or has GV4 been hinted at
>>564313796No, the funniest shit would be if Morb sent Gunvolt all the way back to his old home on Rocinha.
>>564316058I imagined it and it was beautiful.
>>564316174Hinted at in tweet. Either iX3 or GV4. GV3 was patched to end with a BMZ tier TO BE CONTINUED. INTI's 30th anniversary coincides with bitsummit next month and there's a GV stream a couple days after that. That's why people think we're getting an announcement. Also, it's been several years since the last game, so we're right on time if following their usual announcement schedule.
>>564314671falsehoods
>>564316834recent tweet or months old tweet?>GV3 was patched to end with a BMZ tier TO BE CONTINUEDOh I didnt see that is that the GV3 in the trilogy?
>>564316174They said the engine updates and Copen recast in the Triangle Edition was prep for GV4.
>>564316953Tweet from late last year.
>>564316953The patched ending was 6 months after release on PC. It's where Morb tells GV only by returning to the past and applying the power of cooperation and friendship can he save the world.
>>564315137lol
>>564316174assume schizo delusion until proven otherwise
>>564319684Always a good chance of disappointment with INTI.
>>564316174It started with them recasting Copen and Roro for all the mainline games in trilogy enhanced.Then Tsuda expressed interest in finishing mainline Copen's story.Then Aizu saying in the new year's developer letter that they're preparing new developments for iX in the later half of this year.Then /inti/ somehow convinced themselves gv4 will be a reboot and something something Xiao and Zonda.
>buttball>has no butt
>>564320453But this is iX3 believers territory.
>>564321146I have zero belief in the iX series. It's just a recap of actual events.
>>564321785Thank you so much for a to playing my gam-eh.
>>564320453It's copium. They don't want iX3 because it'll be more buzzsaw Cope with a weird gaiden story and more Kohaku but that's what they will get. GV3 was the final game and they're still coping with it. And if GV4 does get made there won't be any of the bosses or support cast fron GV1 or GV2 because it's a Locke fanfiction and none of the cast is ever reused except for Gunvolt and Lumen. GV3's joke ending is all the closure they will ever get!
>>564280220Megacute
>>564320453Yeah, probably iX3 next month and GV4 in Fall, but can't stop people from trying to find any thread to cling to. There isn't much hype for iX after iX2. Only reason people hold out hope for GV4 is because it might have XIAOZONDA, but that is a big maybe. Otherwise, people would treat it the same as iX.
>>564323369I think iX3 will be fun and look forward to it, there just isn't anything to discuss or speculate about.
>>564312090
>>564316873It's funny because they designed Diana to be as non offensive to the wokies as possible, her messy hair, that puffy jacket that covers her body, her lack of proper expretions, the fact that she's rubbed by a black VA in english. She's Roll but designed with the Core Values comitee in mind.
>>564320453My hope is that both iX3 and GV4 announced. GV4 being announced with iX3 being further in development could happen. Similar happened with iX2 and GV3, but indicator point toward iX3. INTI said a sequel was being developed that Triangle was meant to prep for. They never said which. As for Copen recast, he is a mainline character as well and should appear if GV is in the past again, but definitely more important to iX. So recast means it is likely iX3.
>>564316624She would grind your pelvic bones to dust. And then demand a second round.
>>564326294and yet for all their efforts she still made them seethe.
>people seething about Diana are people that were bitching about woke happening everywhere after finding out who voices her>everyone else is just playing the gameThe biggest irony.
>Rollnigger desperate to talk about Pragmata here instead of the 20 threads on /v/ currently
>>564326553They are called the eternaly triggered for a reason.
>>564326437>Similar happened with iX2 and GV3iX2 was rushed out the door to give us something to occupy ourselves with because GV3 had stalled and they essentially rebooted development on the game, which is probably the reason for many if not all of iX2's shortcomings. It took them less than a year to develop, it holds the shortest dev cycle record for any Inti game and I'm going to laugh myself into a fucking coma if iX3 gets thrown under the bus in exactly the same manner.
>>564328517I hate feet.
>>564327880I still don't get the logic because GV3 was released months after iX2.
>>564312090Butt bongo Roro game soon. Trust the plan. Trusy Tsuda.
Final cover for the Mega Man X comic. With the cripto scam bot and the one that got executed by the CCP.
>>564329583sounds flatter than roro's butt.
>>564329053>months after iX2It was half a year after iX2.Anyway, development on iX2 was greenlit and rushed because GV3 found itself in the game development equivalent of tires spinning in mud and they had no idea for how long it would last. It was only after they changed director and borderline restarted development on the game with Arc Chain in mind that development resumed. If you look at the first GV3 trailer it is a VERY different game.
>>564329841>cripto>againdumbass
>>564327279But he doesn't want to talk about it, you can tell that because he isn't bringing it up constantly like he is with that Precure slut for example.
>>564331049>But he doesn't want to talk about itNot after it was revealed who was the English VA.
>>564331049He doesn't want to talk about the game, just the little girl like every other Pragmatafag.
>>564329868Arc Chain was the best thing to happen.
>>564331423He wouldn't be a Rollfag if he was actually interested in the game rather than its little blond girl character
>>564329841Why did the X Comic flop?
>>564331798It didn't. It was always going to be a 5(6) issue series.
>>564331642Even if GV4 wasn't giving me some hope of seeing Gibril again, I'd still be looking forward to it just for more arc chain. In fact, arc chain is more important than any lore, plot threads, or characters to me.
>>564332349Would sacrifice seeing Zonda again for my arc chain fix.
>>564331798Because it's an American comic. Nobody reads those these days.
>>564332936>meanwhile they're selling out in Japan
>>564333669>Meanwhile watch as I talk out of my ass
>it's true, people only disliked Majogami gameplay because it didn't was a 1 to 1 chain lighting
>>564334173here's my ass where's yours?
>>564334767>>564332681
>>564334449It's not that we disliked it, only that it felt lesser. If it came out before GV3, it'd be better remembered.
Lev presents her ass as her side special.
>>564335450No.
>>564323369XIAOZONDA sounds like some ancient evil god of madness a inteprid group of young heroes have to prevent from awakening to destroy the world.

By decree of 『 George Maxwell』, 「 Mega Man 」must die and suffer forever.
>INTI stream tomorrow So more nothing. Yawn.
>>564326437iX3 is most likely because that is what they have repeatedly said they wanted to do and it will make their 30th anniversary a joke and forever spite the Gunvoltfags. Especially because iX got the last Gunvolt anniversary too. Copenhagen continues to win.
>>564347386This is why I want it. But the cope will be that they are saving GV4 for a bigger venue like TGS, nevermind that Copen will forever be associated with INTI's birthday.
>>564347386Most likely is nothing like galgun.
>>564343742>This anon is about to establish his own fiat currency based on shitty games Concordbros...
>>564348246Something GalGun related might be cool.

What would iX3 even be about or play like?
>>564353492go full medabots, let copen have swappable partsinti loves to recycle 2D gameplay of their archetypes, so just swap body parts. give him tank legs, a chain whip, and chest laser, idgaf
>>564353492nothing
>>564353492Like GV3. You even have the person Kirin stole arc lighting from.
>>564353492There's nothing we can predict or discuss. GV4 gets talked about because it's ending and dlc are flashing a huge to be continued. The ending sets up a new unresolved problem, and we know enough of where Gunvolt was supposedly sent to make guesses of what could happen next. We also have a gameplay system that everyone likes, so know INTI will probably just tweak it.For iX2, we have no sequel hook or forecast. iX games are loosely connected. The only theme is that they're bad futures of the main Gunvolt games. iX2's gameplay was not well received, so they will change a ton. We are flying blind.It's the same situation with a lot of Mega Man games, where they're self contained stories. There is not a lot to write speculative fanfic off of, so nothing.
>>564357003Sorry but I like my Levs small, fairy sized even.

>Gibril after her third consecutive loss
>>564322783Luxia said GV and Morb were sent to the past where they and there powers were born, so could be GV1 or could be way further back. We don't know when GV was born. He could be an ancient who got frozen with magic and Sumeragi found him for all we know because his background is a complete blank and he doesn't remember anything before Sumeragi found him. I think people get hyped just because they all want to see their evil wiafus again. I just want more arc chain.
He's gonna take you back to the past...To save the shitty girls that sucks ass...
>>564376897Wouldn't put it past INTERS to set a game in the distant past, but it'd lose all of Gunvolt's distinctive magitech cyberpunk look. Would also mean GV's talks of being less violent with Nova and Zonda if he had a second chance, or Morb telling him to correct his mistakes and cooperate have no payoff. Again, they could do this, but we have nothing to discuss then.
>>564376897I feel Blade Game would be more conductive to more arc chain than GV4. She's a swordsman, she's got Azure Striker, the parts are there.
>>564377305The only one who gets brought up by Serp's septima, or named by GV, is the loli. The rest just get grouped with everyone else. >>564377590Playable Blade in iX3 would be a dream come true.
>>564377590Blade doesn't have quite as much control over the Azure Striker septima as GV or even Asimov. I think she'd be more akin to Zero with extra flair.
>iX is a carbon copy of X with extras>Blade will be a carbon copy of Zero with extrasIt could work.
>>564378050That’s only a problem if you want it to be. She’s already crashbolt teleporting around, she can manage an arc flash.
>>564377305Mmm, getting ass-sucked by Elise. . . .
>>564377883Zondu had more of an effect, because it was his last kill, she was the only one he learned the story of, she kept talking about her dead friends during the fight, her final lines were pretty sad, and she wasn't a bitch to him and trying to do the beat and spare routine. Being smoll and cute probably helps, and INTI has made her design softer and cuter over time.Nooba, because GV ended up agreeing with a lot of his stances. I think Nova and GV would be like X and Zero if Nova could ever get over his inferiority complex. Nova actually hates violence more than GV does.
>>564378712I don't think Inti of all developers will settle for tag + AC again when they have a character that fights by conducting lightning through her segmented katana.I, too, would rather they give Blade her own identity.
Is this just rollnigger fanfic'ing and going on and on about how small and moe Zonda is?
>>564378843I don't think Zonda was trying to show GV mercy. All of her give up or submit to me talk was just villain taunts and brags. Nova does the same. She would have killed him if he did surrender.
>>564380171>I don't think Zonda was trying to show GV mercyShe wasn't, and she says it herself; There is no love or mercy for any who oppose Eden. It doesn't matter to Zonda if you're Team Psychic, if you oppose the destruction of non-septimals you're just another blood traitor and can perish along with them. Waifufags are always biased.
>>564380171Her last lines before the fight kick off are that GV into her world of boundless love, and she talk of him standing by her side, so I think she would prefer not killing him.
>>564380171Gunvolteiro was given every chance to join them or at least step down outside of Desna.
>>564380171She only does the stand down talk against GV. Cope's fight is how she acts when she's going for a kill.
>>564368497>Can't save IrithFuck
>>564381131Maybe she just hates GV more. She respects Copen enough to be honest. No taunts. No fake pity. Just two beings who want to kill each other.
>>564381782Sir, I think that your Lev was made by a Chinese manufacturer.
>>564381782Excuse me I pre-ordered erotic child Lev, this is NOT what I paid for
>>564380641>Waifufags are always biased.More like I'm trying to make sense of GV's guilt complex. Elise should come up more since she was a complete victim.
>>564382380Nah, she had 2/3 of her evil.
>nothing as expected>another sunsoft is b-ACK!Uh oh
I would trade the Elise subhuman for literally any other waifufag even another Rollfag
>>564381032why reason does gibu have to join or even just leave alone the commie murder cult that stole his waifu and is about to do TMD
>>564380171謡精の歌を奏でよう寄る辺なき孤独の戦士にせめて死という安らぎを楽園幻奏らLet us sing the song of the museFor the forlorn soldierGrant him the mercy of death Paradise Fantasy (Lost)So they're not completely wrong. Zonda does view it as a mercy...killing. If GV actually surrendered, she probably would accept. It'd be OOC of her not to. But she was trying to kill him.
But could Zonda defeat Sonic the hedgehog
>>564383932probably
>>564383471>心からの愛を込めて>仲間たちよ、家族たちよ>今再びこの地へと戻れ>RESIDENT OF EDENWith love from the heart— Comrades, family— Return once more to this land. RESIDENT OF EDENJapanese haikus for Eden always hit the feels harder than 8-4's:Heed me, O fallenHeed this call deep, pure, and trueAnd return to usEDEN'S PRESENCE
I preordered kingdoms´s returnLaugh at me
>>564384081Is 8-4 really that bad? Seems like it's overblown and people just bring them up to bait rage. It's always just some small words or details changed. The story doesn't change much, and they write snappy dialog.What will the reaction from /inti/ be when they're tapped to do GV4?
Does Gibril get trashed by 8-4's script like Zonda and Desna?
>>564385645Not really. She retains her age/height based anger minefield and sadomasochistic tendencies, as well as referring to non septimals in any degrading manner she can think of. She's probably harsher in JP when she's suggesting that turning ordinary humans into zombies via her septima is the same as "recycling garbage".
>>564385645Yes. Jap script she's bloodthirsty because it's revenge for oppression. English, it's because she likes hurting people, especially peace loving weaklings who look down on her. Jap version is both more violent and sympathetic.
>>564384636>huge difference in haikus right there>not much difference between scriptsStories are not just what characters do, but how and why they do it as well.
>>564384636The original 3ds translation was legendary for all the wrong reasons, but I honestly don't think GV2 is that bad. It's not broken in any way, nor is it missing like 90% of the script like with the first game. It *is* very liberally localized, but in 8-4's defense it also kinda has to be when you have a character that talks solely in 2ch memes and all caps.There are also small characterization changes. For example, GV talks in a very truncated way in the JP script, but if you were to translate that into English he just comes off as a dunce caveman. To compensate for that they have him belt out one-liners instead.You'll notice that the rage mostly stems from butthurt Edenfags who can't get over the fact their prophet lost.
>>564388440Nah I actually know Japanese and am not hyperfixated on Eden8-4 GV2 is baaaaad
>>564388440It got the whole plot wrong.
>>564382991>commie murder cult Quill?
>>564388974I wouldn't go that far. The plot in either case is Eden stealing a handicapped girl so they can sacrifice her to their leader who seeks to create a new world for their kind. The changes only really matters if you're a distraught Zondafag that insists on versus debating intent vs purpose and semantics.
>>564389931Matters as far as GV3 is concerned too, otherwise GV's regret comes off as extremely bizarre.
>>564376897>I just want more arc chain.Imagine being so contrarian you pretend to like Kirin and her playstyle this much.
Would anybody even pretend to like Inafune if he were to die this year?
>>564390890Arc chain with GV would be even better.
>>564390937This but with Inti
>>564389931English script deletes Eden lines calling Mytyl noble and a hero for her "sacrifice," so even then, there's a difference in feel.
>>564390692GV's regret already comes off as extremely bizarre, the only thing he should ever regret is failing to protect Joule. You can't seriously play that game and not get the feeling that his character was butchered to prop up Kirin.Especially when she says "sure the old gunvolt was a real bastard", like bitch, his enemies refused to back down. They forced his hand.
>>564391670I always got the feeling Gunvolt felt relieved or even good after he killed an enemy. Even characters like Elise or a kid like Pantera. Kudos in universe are meant to be how baddest GV is feeling about himself, and it gets pretty high hurting other teens.
>>564391670What? He is a monster, who's about to destroy the world and the only alternative is becoming into a literal Sumeragi dog who also has to dabble as the sex pet of their biggest apologist.
>>564391569If anything that line just makes Zonda worse I feel. Condescendingly implying that an innocent, mute, paraplegic girl's death is a noble sacrifice and it should just be taken in stride because it furthers Zonda's own agenda? That's so cruel.
>>564392257And what even is the alternative? She either dies without her septima or gets it back and then becomes the most valuable and powerfull weapon on the planet.
>>564392257If she were doing it for herself, sure, but she actually means all the shit she says. It's what makes he tragic instead of just hateable. She'll even sacrifice herself, and her final thoughts are about how she let down her bro.
>>564392257Japanese Zonda never condescending.
https://noisypixel.net/kingdoms-return-review-mind-numbing-rpg/4/10, Inti basically made a bad monotonous Compile Heart game
>>564393216I just want to interject here that Copen believes all the shit he says too, but with him it's just>le mean hateable murderer bullying all our anime girls. >:((But unlike Zonda the games have proven him right, what, four times now? Out of five games? It's quite something.
>>564312090Who is this semen demon?
>>564394081Compile Heart 2.0 everyone.It's owari da.
>>564394081So it's out?>>564394242What even is the last thing Compile Hearts have done?
>>564394117If Cope were killing them out of tragic necessity, it'd be one thing, but the guy is doing it because he just really hates anime. He's never going to live down that ix2 implies he exterminates humanity after the end of his GV2 route because he hates adepts so much.
>>564394601I think the new Nep game.Ariana and the Elder Codex was surprisingly competent, though that was developed by Hyde and only published by Iffa and Compa.
>>564394117Copen is doing it for himself. His ending is all about him embracing selfish hate to become a demon.
>>564384146Here's what you get to look forward to >>564394081
>>564394117He lost my respect when he didn't kill Mytyl.
>>564394648It's the exact same conceptual assumption though. Zonda is practically a foil to Copen, believing in the exact same extremes like having to eradicate the opposite side otherwise they'll eradicate all of (Us).
>>564384146I got a physical copy. Still, I doubt that I will like it less than Umbraclaw.
Gal Gun bros!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Aa7rcyNRcA
>>564395449She isn't tho. For one most of those things are just her parroting Tenjian who is the proper Copen adept counterpart. And for two, she would be more than overjoyed if she knew that the easiest and fastest way to exterminate the minos is to let them plap anime until there's none of them left.
>>564395675We are so back (to Kingdom)
>>564395675Now we're talking.>Shinobu is ImperialYes. Ha ha ha... YES!!!Also cute sharing that role with Copen. That apple didn't fall far from the tree, it plopped straight down.
>>564394081Game must be amazing then, critics dont know shit
>>564395449Copen's adept counterparts are Tenjian and Asroc. Zonda is most like Mytyl and Joule, though her older brother figure doesn't keep the racist rants to himself.Zonda doesn't even hate nonadepts. She actually seems regretful that coexistence is impossible in her world view. She empathizes with Copen's stances on survival. What Zonda is is crazy.
>>564396535Nah. Inti tricked into paying for a gacha gameplay game.
>>564396535
>>564396489Not quite. Shinobu is a horny retard while Copen is a genious with no sex drive.
>>564396957Are you really going to defend the people who got stuck in Cuphead's tutorial?
>>564396954Ill let you guys know
>>564395834>>564396549>nyoo my adept supremacist group leader can't be this extremistCome on anons, this is just potato potahto. Even the Gibrilfag can admit she hates ordinary ningens with a passion.For Zonda it's not even about hate, it's just presumed necessity to secure the survival of her own sub-species. It is exactly what Copen is doing.
>>564394081Was expecting around a 5/10 +-1, so no surprise. Looked like junk food gaming/shovelware.
>>564396980She's also headstrong, prejudiced and with more tunnelvision than a bullet train when it comes to De**ns. She also loses a lot.That's what Cope inherited, that momma's boy. Mytyl got all the Kamizono trademarked horniness along with her septima angel gene.
>>564397281No, Zonda would not kill his own side to "own the minos" so she's not a Copen. And she's not an Asimov either. So she's a Zed.
>>564397618>She also loses a lot.She is so dangerous that the two murderhobo maids had to call for parley on her and her sister! Hell she even killed so many demons that some demon lords were wondering if her clothes were maid costumes from a strange part of Europe.
>>564397281And for Copen and Tenjian, it is about hate. Put it like this. If adept and nonadepts were at peace, if all the characters believed coexistence was possible, Copen and Tenjian would still want to kill the other side. Zonda would not. Copen and Tenjian would never feel sad about adept and nonadepts not being able to join hand due to their nature, because why the fuck would you want to hold hands with a cockroach/old man?
>>564397281Because outisde the mutt localization job (that became the most posted example of why American localization sucks to this day) she's not. At worst you can say that she didn't knew how to play the hand that she was given.
>>564398013I also remember the scene where Maya had to pull Shinobu out ass-first from a demon portal in front of the demon maids.Summa summarum, Cope most likely got Shinobu's prejudice in with the breast milk. The rest can be attributed to stewing in Dr. K's /pol/ manifesto.
They even left out Millas speech about the australian megafauna/flora developing psychic powers.
>>564397281The best way I've seen someone describe Zonda's attitude towards humanity is that she's like the ultimate dog lover (sorry Kirin) who views all nonadepts as rabid dogs. She doesn't hate nonadepts because they're still dogs, and she loves dogs, but they gotta die to protect the non-rabid ones (adepts).
>>564395675Your anniversary content, sire.
>>564397775>>564398192>>564398282We're just going in circles now, because Copen's agenda is not built on hate, but is driven by the belief that Adepts are a threat to humanity. Now tell me, if she doesn't share that sentiment but in reverse, then what are Zonda's beliefs? Or does she just have no agenda of her own and it's all actually Tenjian's fault like you've convinced yourselves?If the foundation of Copen's beliefs were built on hate we'd never have iX, who has the most reason to hate yet acts with complete, cold indifference and even occasionally tries to talk himself out of a battle he views as pointless.
>>564400990>because Copen's agenda is not built on hateiX2 happened, we know that is not true.
>>564400990>If the foundation of Copen's beliefs were built on hate we'd never have iX, who has the most reason to hate yet acts with complete, cold indifference and even occasionally tries to talk himself out of a battle he views as pointless.There is 100 years between GV1 and iX. We don't know what happened to Copen. And if you want to use iX, we have iX2 right there showing post-GV2 route Copen going wild.
>>564401265We don't know shit in regards to iX2.We thought this dude was Copen, turns out it's just another Epsilon and Mother made dozens of them. I can't wait for the OCW to come out and bury that headcanon.
>>564401494Got worker titties so you know what Copen was in the right.
>>564401563Mother Roro has purple eyes, and workers have some of Eden's shit. Put it together.
>>564401678Mother Roro having purple eyes only indicates her AS drive is built on Asimov's septimosomes, and the timeline can go pretty far before anything fluctuates.The fact you instantly go '>copen did it' but having no evidence or proof of him being capable of doing so is asinine. Especially when there are plenty of world ending abilities that could've lead to this scenario, like Vanishing World and Paradise Lost.Almost feels like you just want to point at him and call him the bad guy and are looking for any justification to do so.
>>564394081These people are not to be trusted.
>>564400990You are implying that just because his agenda is built on genocidal hatred that he is unchangeable. He isn't. He can move beyond that. Desna thought so, even as he killed her. But as of GV2, he definitely is more anti-adept than pro-humanity, and it's reflected in a lot of his dialogue and thoughts. Same as Tenjian and Asroc for the other side. Zonda never comes off as hateful towards nonadepts. Never calls them racist terms or anything. Treats Copen with respect, and says she understands where he's coming from. She seems more delusional than anything. That, her innocence/influenceability revealed in EP towards certain subjects, and of course her appearance/age are why people give her a lot more slack than Copen.If they achieve their goals, it will result in the same thing, but there is a reason why we consider motive in criminology. There's a reason why defensive vs accidental vs sympathetic vs cold-blooded killings are all treated differently under law, even though they all result in someone dying.
>>564403237Of course Inti is to not be trusted. Took you this long to realize that?
>>564402153All the GV playable characters (except for Kirin) have been portrayed as having the potential to be good or bad. They have in them the seed of great heroes and the worst villains. They can save the world or destroy it.>muh Chink mythsYES EXACTLY!
>>564403963>>muh Chink myths>YES EXACTLY!Oh, you're just a schizo so I can just ignore you now. Copen is a hero, and all of you people who can't see it are retards.
>>564403237I could care less about review scores for any game but Majogami actually was good.
>>564402153>adepts did 9/11>when Hail and Dacite talk about exterminating humans back in the great purge
>>564403326>You are implying that just because his agenda is built on genocidal hatred that he is unchangeableNo, that is what other people are implying. I'm saying their motives mirror each other through the assumption that a specific action is unavoidable to prevent a greater harm, namely the genocide of the other to save their own.Zonda may come off less viscious than Copen in her antics, but it is still genocide all the same. Personally, I find her cold and ethereal demeanor towards it creepy.
>>564374582no, also AI
>>564403963I don't care. If iX2 implies that Copen has the capacity to, at any point, just wipe out all adepts and simultaneously tell the life wave to blow him, then why doesn't he just do it in every timeline? Especially when they all roughly follow the same script to a point and every Copen, presumably, has gone through the same shit?Probably because it's fucking stupid and he can't. Not even if he wanted to.
>>564404710It is creepier, but Copen's attitude is easier to hate. Maybe I'd think differently if I hadn't been exposed to EP and SP. That warped my perception of Eden. Before, I was much more similar to you.
>>564404572The only reason I don't say Majogami is the worst game Inti has ever released is because I haven't played all the licensed shovelware they made for handhelds yet.
>>564405136Could it be he didn't have the adept blood for it? Zonda's optimasome(?) has got to count for a lot.
>>564405293*Octimosome. Whatever the magic blood of an octima adept is called.
>>564394081Sounds like another SotD. The kind of game you should wait some amount of months to play, after the balance patches and obligatory update campaign smooth out everything.
>>564405293Not really since she doesn't get that until the Muse boost.
>>564405228Well I'm sorry you didn't like it but it was still a good game.
>>564405676That might have happened in iX2 as well.
>>564405293Copen's Septima tech has always only been a Cope method, at least when it came to combat. The most impressive is probably Roro's AS drive as it is just tabletop fusion that can transmit limitless energy via bluetooth and requires no adept hooked up to it. Sumeragi could never.Anyway >>564405676 brings up a good point and I think it'd just split into Muse and Phantasm Mirror as it isn't a "true" octima as she's boosted by Muse. Though I wouldn't know.
>>564404857Pretty cute. But cute design is meaningless without character.
>>564406058>Anyway >>564405676 brings up a good point and I think it'd just split into Muse and Phantasm Mirror as it isn't a "true" octima as she's boosted by Muse. Though I wouldn't know.This. Joule destroys Zonda's soul at the end of GV2, denying her chance to be reunited with her brother in the afterlife, which is why only Joule/Mytyl's septima gets sealed in the pendant.
>>564404857I feel like Wizard chan has a mischievous face. Like she's about to cast seduction magic on me (there's no need, little Wizard)
>>564406295It's what she deserved, but now Morb's probably reset the board, so we'll see.
If Copen and Nova can move off of their stances, does that mean that Zonda could be changed as well? How difficult would it be in comparison?
>>564394081>reviewer liked Majogami>calls Kingdom's Return one of the worst gameplay experiences he's ever hadThe Yakuza money will be coming in clutch again, I feel.
>>564406115No it's not.
>>564407396Yes it is. It's precisely why Inti can't make a game or appealing characters to literally save their lives.
>>564407557Have you never played a game that has you create your own party members and choose portraits? If you don't like that sort of game then fine but many people do like that kind of game.

>>564406901I'm sure she can be reformed. I mean, all the little septimal bigots in Eden just gets to fester together in Belladen where they regurgitates each other's beliefs and stories about how non-septimals are the worst. And, well, similarly can be said about Copen where his nearest relations is a mute sister, a maid that, when told how he's going to burn down the Adept children's cancer ward, shows up with the exact amount of fuel he needs as well as a floating orb that tells him to "Go for a big combo."The answer would obviously be to put the two together. No but really, they need positive reinforcement so the stereotypes they've built up in their heads can be challenged.
>>564405143>Maybe I'd think differently if I hadn't been exposed to EP and SPYou should read Fleeting Memories first for the proper experience.
>>564406901>How difficult would it be in comparison?You're talking about somebody who goes to Gibril and Teseo for life advice. You're talking about somebody who thinks Teseo is a wise man. She spends the side stories doing things like giving her informal plans names like "Love Striker Part X" or narrating herself out loud because Teseo said it'd be cool. She convinced Gibril to cosplay as Lumen in front of the other G7, because Teseo told her it'd be a good idea. The side material also implies that Tenjian tries really hard to shelter her.So probably not any harder than Nova. Have her mothered by Moniqa or Quinn for a bit, and that'd get her shifting. Or just give her a beating and a rousing speech. That always seems to work on adepts.
>>564408912>That always seems to work on adeptsStratos, Elise 2/3, and most of Eden were not going to stop by reasoning with them.
>>564408912>Or just give her a beating and a rousing speechBut you do. Just had to be lethal with her.
>>564408665Copen says that the only thing the nazis got wrong were that they chose the wrong target. Had they been going after adepts, they'd have been heroes. After reefing Fleeting Memories, I find myself agreeing with him.
>>564409551>Copen says that the only thing the nazis got wrongNo he didn't
>>564409551You understand why he calls adepts vermin and roaches, and why he's seeking the most efficient and most painful way of killing millions of them. Adepts truly are demons.
>>564409351>>564409350Unfortunately, modern INTI disagrees. Violence is the solution. Jumping straight to killing all of them gets you bad ended to Moebius.
>>564410179What's killing but violence with more permanent results.
>>564394081This is the only other review, which is also negativehttps://ricedigital.co.uk/kingdoms-return-review/>(I hit credits in less than 5 hours)That's kind of standard Inti, but considering everything else the people saying this looks like a lost DSi eshop exclusive were on the mark
Do you think Fake Zonda was loosely inspired by that succubus from Capcom?
According to GV3, Asimov is the only guy is unambiguously okay to kill. Everyone else ranges from "maybe" to "beat them up but don't kill because you'll actually make things worse" to "would have been better to try talking things over."But then, a lot of people don't like GV3 for that. They want to go maximum murder against a bunch of dumb anime teenagers.
>>564410638Lets be real. Layer's areolas would be bigger than that.
>>564410771>Asimov is the only guy is unambiguously okay to killAnd Stratos. He was practically begging for it
>>564347160Yeah, nothing. Kingdom's Return release stream covering more of what we know. iX Dual Collection on the way. There will be some BitSummit announcement, but again, we kind of saw that coming. That's it.
>Inti can't even make a simple but good 2D action game anymore>not even with a tacked on miniscale builderI don't feel so good bros...
>>564411861>picI don't like masochist Gerbil.Kingdom Return seems pretty good. Simple, but fun.
>>564410771On the one hand, GV1/2 has the most evil Gunvolt boss roster. On the other hand, they're like all 10-15 years old and have stories about being orphaned in concentration camps. How am I supposed to feel about this? Why are the games where they're all kind of okay people who you might be able to show mercy to the ones where they're all in their 20s or 30s and have less pitiable circumstances?
>>564412381Not a single adept we've seen in canon has been significantly older than 25. Even the mob boss with gray hair is under 30.
>>564411861CnC proved that they have a few great ideas, but they choose the worst and most boring ones to turn into actual games. I don't know what to say.
>>564412249Sadist Gibril then?
>>564412909Needs to be updated now that Kingdom's Return Again is out
>>564412381During GV1's time period, adult adepts were very rare. GV was part of the first big boom in adept numbers. That's why most adepts were teenagers or younger. In later games, you had a more normal population distribution, hence older adepts.>>564412903Interesting. Could have sworn he was at least a 30-something. Surprising how many years a design can add to your memory of a character. And I would say Asimov and Gunvolt are older than 25, but they're special cases.
>>564413239I suppose, but not in a sexual sense. I don't like masochist Gerbil because it feels too self-destructive. I don't want her to like getting hurt, I don't want her to get hurt at all, she's been hurt enough already.
We'll find out next week if Kingdom's Return reaches the charts on Famitsu, unless there's a Japanese holiday then it'll be a week after that.
>>564412909It's driving me absolutely fucking mad that one of Inti's better games in recent times, Flamefrit, was an april fools joke.This is not a serious developer.
>>564413703>FlamefritWhat the heck anon it looks so cool, thanks for telling me.
>>564413486Gerbil's SM antics goes from a funny joke to sad and fucked up after you read her story. I think it's what made me fall in love with Gunvoltshit.
>>564413486
>>564413486>I don't want her to like getting hurtThere's hardly a woman alive who doesn't (not so) secretly enjoy getting a little rough.
>>564414151That's a really weird thing to say about your mother.
>>564414151It's almost a natural law.
>>564413854It's cheap for a reason, not that its bad but because its more of a proof of concept, ala Mighty Gunvolt (not Burst).
>>564413295That's the rerelease of the mobile game, it came out in 2012.
Inti will never succeed unless they make Fritwo
These Gerbil pics are awfulIf your waifu can't get more than 10 quality pieces of art you need to reevaluate your decisions
>>564414543>>564414895Okay.
>>564413905>>564413908More or less, yeah. >>564414151There's a difference between "a little rough" and this.
Regular eyes
>>564412909I hate Real World. The RNG is insane, most skills are worthless, all harvesting areas are overrun by griefters, leveling up makes everything harder, and there's this no fun allowed class called "the jew" that has a lot of perks but none of them are combat focused but you can't farm then because the mods will ban you.
>>564415641or danger eyes?
>>564414895Cougar alone has made 11 Gerbil picks so this is not true.>>564406901A mating press from a 150+ kilogram minos and she's switching sides...and brining Gibril and Desna along.
>>564415195Those are all variations on one image, and it's also shittyI have yet to see you Gibrilfags post actually good art
Between Elise, Zonda, and Gibril, who has the most pics. Who has the most high quality pics?
>>564415831Danger eyes are for when she's horny.
That's some weak beta shit. She's a battletard, she lives for the thrill of the fight. Her masochism is a key character trait and part of her gap moe.
>>564416318Zonda has the most. I don't know about quality, there's good and bad stuff for all of them. Elise has the sexiest, Zonda has the cutest.
>>564416152>CougarThanks for agreeing with me.
>>564416318Gibril. Probably because she has the most unique design and story out of all of them.
>>564416219Okay.
>>564413239Her sadism is a shield to her own insecurities She's not even actually masochistic per se, she's just warped to act like her mother so getting smacked means she's loved. She seems to want the direct representation of love warped as it may be.
Has that one game he worked on EoS'd already?
Does she work out, or do the septosomes naturally give her that muscular definition?
>>564417158>SeptimosOMES>genOMESJust realizing this. So that's where the meme of anime genes comes from.
>>564416857So let's say you defeat her by slapping her ass until its swollen. Will her attitude slowly change over time from "How dare you, you fucking perverted animal!" to "It's okay if it's you"?
>>564416887He has worked on two games but none of those were gachas.
>>564417415She wanted GV to electrocute her again, at least the version Pantera imagined, so it doesn't seem to matter. He was trying to stop her dreams and she still wanted him so anyone not after her blood has a leg up.
So we know what Zondafags want from GV4 (Zonda gets to be Xiao's muse), but what do Gibrilfags want? What's the longshot and more realistic want, the role she'll take in GV4's potential story?
>>564417415Absolutely, that's how it happened with GV.It went from "Get away from me, pervert douchebag." to "GV is so hot I want him to plow me until we run out of condoms and then just rawdog it all night" with just a single battle.
>>564418004Don't really like longshots, because that's stuff like>playable GibrilI think Gibril for boss rematch, home base hangout, and assist character on a mission. Realistically not going to get a harem or romance options in a Gunvolt game.
>>564418004Gibu headpats.
>>564417592Why are they fighting?>A)over a minos >B)over rock music>C) Grazie told Gibril what she thinks about what the british call food
>>564418376I like a, but b makes sense. As in, Gibril likes Rock music, but Grazie likes actual rocks. So the argument is over rock vs rock.
>>564417415Spanked>>564418004>Redemption arc. >Introduce her background/side story directly into the game, even if it's just alluded to.>Gets a DLC that focuses on her.
>>564418004A Girbil spin off game. Like that other indie game posted last thread but in the Gunvolt world. But with Majogami graphics so that we can at least have a good look at Girbil's crisis mode. And just like in Majogami a bunnysuit mode post game.
>>564418595>Gibril's diva is a sadist that spanks her to boost her morale >He death scream should her HP reach 0 is an argasm scream Yeah... I'm thinking Nintendo exclusive.
>>564418004I'm still not 100% sure if GV4 will be set in the Gunvolt 1 era and setting. INTI could still throw a curveball at us, but I'm cautiously hyped. I'll wait until the trailer before I join in, else it'll just be schizoposting.
>>564418834>argasmfucking how? this general is a bunch of ESLs in labcoats, scientifically developing new and baffling ways to flub the english language.

How the fuck are they making any money? How are they paying for utility and salaries?The only other explanation I can think of is Inti Creates is a millionaire club where these old farts just don't give a fuck about profits and makes games as a hobby.
>>564419903He got rigged into the spot a few times and he turned out to be the biggest jobber by the end. Chika still laughs at the tire she punctured.
>>564420664>FemCopen would be doing edgy shit and saying edgy shit to others, and they wouldn't be hags with sexy villainess coded designs or grotesque demons but other cute characters.One of the funny things about GV2 is that, aside from the eyes, Eden has less "evil" coded designs than the main characters. Like Gunvolt's design isn't badguy coded at all, but it's still more intimidating than most of the G7, who look pretty approachable in anime design language. The only thing that signifies something wrong with them is their eyes (lack of highlights). Like if I were, without any context, to throw down GV, Copen, Zonda, Desna, Ghauri, Gibril, and Asroc, give them all the similar eye highlights (or lack of highlights), and ask people to pick out who were the villains, many people would pick out Copen and/or GV.It would be very interesting to me if Eden does show up in GV4, and some of them given eye highlights, like ATEMS. I feel like Desna should definitely have them. There is nothing really evil about her. Teseo might be another. Again, he doesn't really kill anyone. The worse he does is prank. In his level, he's explicitly doing heroic stuff that GV would want to be doing (exposing Sumeragi's crimes). Ghauri could get some too. He's more destructive, but he's kind of just dumb, not evil.
Kingdom's Return tomorrow! But demo reviews doesn't look very promising and I don't understand why. Like, people are complaining about graphics as if most of the previous Inti games were not pixel-art platformers. The most braindead comments are like "can't believe the creator of gunvolt are making THIS!" as if they were not throwing shit at GV3. I don’t understand, is this hypocrisy or just plain idiocy?
>>564421798Give Zonda eyelights and she does look like a good girl.
>>564421526>Chika still laughs at the tire she punctured.
>>564421998Are we open to the possibility that it is in fact not a good game?
>>564421998>GV3GV3 plays fine. People were annoyed about the story. I actually like GV's story and characters, so hated most of GV3's story, and I still recommended it to my weeb friends over the earlier games, because the gameplay is so much better.
>>564421798Dull eyes doesn't just signify villainy, it more so symbolizes severe trauma, lack of emotion, soul or consciousness. Most of these kids are all in a broken state, completely mentally checked out, and are currently functioning without their normal humanity or emotional depth.
>>564422393Possibility?
>>564421998>The most braindead comments are like "can't believe the creator of gunvolt are making THIS!"Frankly I can't believe it either.
>>564422404Bout the only thing good about GV3 is that it might set up something good for GV4.>>564422460What is Desna's "severe trauma, lack of emotion, soul or consciousness?" She doesn't seem that broken. She tried to counsel Copen of all people.
>>564421998They made gunvolt and umbraclaw and majogami and sotdwhy is this game the unbelievable one?
>>564421998It sounds like shit from the reviews posted here desuI'm still gonna play it when the Gal Gun skin pack comes out
>>564422460>>564423152Seeing all the visions of doom and gloom, and encountering all the evils fucked her up.The real question you should be asking is "why doesn't GV have dull eyes?" GV is really fucked up. This right here, from the short story, as he's cooking alive and blowing up two homeless adepts as the scream in pain, is more fucked up than most of the villains in Gunvolt:>That aside, saving everyone is foolish. Being weak of mind, hesitating, or showing mercy would only lead to defeat
>>564423152I don't remember much of Desna's background lore. Wasn't she witness to many a village cleansing of septimal children in rural Russia or something? Being bombarded with visions of how bleak the future is can't be all that swell either.
>>564423515What were said homeless adepts trying to do?
>>564424078Trying to rough up/rob Quinn. They saw that she was a rich nonadept girl in rough part of town, got angry, started yelling at her about oppression and taking what's owed to them, and then GV intervened. It's how GV met Quinn.
>>564423297Buyer's remorse from paying for an incomplete gacha game and preordering it.
>>564423515Yeah but they were drug-addled hobos who were assaulting a highschooler, so in GV's mind it was completely justified.GV is great at inflicting pain and has the mental fortitude of the gods, the most pain he ever experienced was losing his father figure and imoutowife in a double whammy, but even that wasn't enough to bring him down.
>>564424078Robbery doesn't warrant being cooked alive with electrical shocks on the spot.GV could have just beat the shit out of them.
>>564424454He did think about, and his adept mind quickly ran through all the socioeconomic factors (they were poor and oppressed, she was rich, yadda yadda), and tactical considerations (he could have used his powers to subdue them, he's much more fit than they are so could have just beat them up, etc.) in less than a second before his inner Asimov kicked in, said no, and flesh started searing. The rationale was pretty perverse. The idea is that once you show mercy to one person, you'll want to show it to everyone. And then, somebody will come back, stronger, more knowledgeable, and better prepared, and they will get lucky and kill you, so you have to kill every single time, no matter how weak or pitiable the enemy is.
>>564425116So Asimov is like the anti-Kirin?
>>564424446>Merak>parental neglect>bullied at school>depression leads to detachment and sociopathic tendencies>dead eyes>Carrera>can't find good fights>GV says he's not evil>GV says he's not even trying to kill him, just beat the shit out him>dead eyes>Desna>grew up popular because very attractive and nice person>fled home to protect nonadept family>saw some shit across Russia>tried to get Copen to stand down>tried to steer Copen away from his tragic fate>dead eyes>GV>raised by a weirdo edgelord>massive anger issues, culminating in two final levels where he says he will show no quarter to the enemy>tendency to dehumanize adversaries, treats them as annoyances at best, can't empathize with them even if they have very similar stories to him or ones he loves, or tragic backgrounds>believes restraint/mercy is a weakness>feels good about killing kids and teenagers in stylish ways (kudos)>eyes full of life>Lola>encourages Copen's genocide quest>makes jokes about adept deaths>makes jokes about tragic adept backgrounds>enjoys adept death>loves Copen for the death he unleashes>eyes full of lifeBit of a mismatch here, chief.
>>564426529That's why we all love Lola.
>>564426997>we
I wonder what Zed and Layla saw/did to give them dull eyes of mental unwellness.For that fact, why doesn't Joule have them? The SIT can't have been a nice place. Something that should happen if we have redemptions in a future game are characters getting the eye lights back when their hope and sanity are restored.
>>564426529>Copen accelerates the bits to the speed of sound slicing through metal and flesh alike>Sasuga wa boku no Akyura-kun!!
>>564426529>>feels good about killing kids and teenagers in stylish ways (kudos)Love the lore around kudos being that it's how the characters feel about themselves. Kirin can get it so high because she doesn't have a lot of guilt. GV's kudos are nerfed heavily in GV3 because he feels like shit most of the time. In earlier games, he can feel in the zone, but never reaches anywhere near the highs or Kirin. Even at his best, he has this niggling doubt at the back of his mind that he's going way harder than he needs too, like in the Ouka short.
>>564427397Such a shame we didn't continue down the track of perpetual tragedy. What the hell happened to Inti's trademark edginess? It all went downhill after BMZ 3 when they confirmed Leibniz wasn't just Lucia who, wrought with grief at her own pilot's demise, started to roleplay as him to cope with the loss.
>>564428690>Kudos function as a combo-based scoring system, which directly fuels the gameplay's audio and narrative tension. The diegetic justification is that it represents the thrill and performance of battle for the player character...
>>564428690No, she can get it high because she has gacha mechanics that inflates them.Meanwhile,>Connect X>Copen is back in a world where he can attack adepts indiscriminately and without remorse>kudos in the tens of thousandsHe's still in there.
>>564429691>>Connect X>>Copen is back in a world where he can attack adepts indiscriminately and without remorse>>kudos in the tens of thousandsfuckin' KIIIINOOOOOO
>>564421998>Like, people are complaining about graphics as if most of the previous Inti games were not pixel-art platformers.... that looked better than this. The sprites are not that great in this game.
>>564429691>kudos tied to how good/badass a character feels>the meta for easily achieving ridiculously high kudos is to fill GV's mind with Zonda and MytylWhat's the message here?
>>564430163>the Gibril anon finally gets his game>scoring is based on playing like absolute shit and getting hit over and over again
>>564421998>Like, people are complaining about graphics as if most of the previous Inti games were not pixel-art platformers.I know some of you faggots take shilling the latest inter title regardless of quality as a personal matter but this is possibly the single most retarded thing to say in a megaman general

>>564429851It honestly looks like a two man team's amateur project, not something befitting Inti's size and pedigree.I've seen one man made porn games more impressive than this.
>>564430853>the good timeline is unlocked through cute and funny
>>564422185...from a crab fishing ship in Alaska.
>>564430748Funny bout about that
>>564431342Surely most of the staff are working hard on the BitSummit game *coughs*
>>564431742You mean iX3?
>>564431864*Gunbike 2
>>564426529>Only thing that managed to take away the light on Roro's eyes was that losing all hope in having a Kamizono baby inside her.
>>564428969Tragedy porn is good in doses, but you can only handle so much before it becomes grating. There's only so much, as either a player or a developer/author, of protagonists being unsympathetic assholes to cute pitybait antagonists who they contemptuously annihilate or endings that leave everything worse off you can take before you check out. Gunvolt 2, especially because it was following Gunvolt 1, is about the limit of edge I can take. Apparently, it was too spicy for even INTI to handle if the interviews are anything to go off of. You can trace INTI's tonal turnaround to that game. iX could be a little depressing, but for the most part, it felt like the deaths you were dealing, though tragic, were building a better world. In Gunvolt 2? These were very likable people if you read their stories and listened to their dramas. You stopped them from unleashing a wave that would empower adepts to rise up in global revolt. That's probably good, but at the same time, the world is not a better a place. You failed to save Joule, and everything feels like it's gotten shittier. Nothing actually feels resolved (ignore GV3's magically resolving everything), the biggest adept resistance group in the world is gone, and Xiao's plot was successful. It feels like you just traded all these lives for nothing. Like I said, there is only so much of that you can take before you stop caring.
>>564431742>>564431864surely they've realized the answer by now
>>564432280I have no doubts.
>>564431742>>564431864>kingdom's return is the highest quality inti can afford now>next game is a text adventure
>>564430748Capcom can't make Mega Man 8 pixel work either. So the top at the time it's Shantae.
>>564432476The strategy game community is so strarved and beaten that Inti only needs to make it a 6/10 and it will be lorded as the second comming of Company Of Heroes...or X Com depending if it's real time or turns.

>>564431674Better hope the boat doesn't sink otherwise iX3 is cancelled since Cope and Lola are the ones working the crab cages.
>>564434017Lola is still around and getting games and songs, unlike that what'shername has been.
>>564430163Is this why the Tenjian ghost was so angry at my Gunvolt?
>>564432160I don't know, I think Inti is overcorrecting. It's even bleeding into all their other projects. Personally I do tend to find bleak worlds with small sparks of joy deeply appealing because they provide a powerful contrast that makes it all feel more intense and meaningful. You know, hope and resilience in the midst of hardship and all that.In regards to Gunvolt I think there were still stories to tell in that world that could've led to a satisfying conclusion without having to give up on the halfway mark and starting all over, but this time without all the edge that attracted us in the first place.
>>564434159Roro is working HARD keeping Inti afloat.
>>564434631I'll see what happens with GV4. I hope they don't lighten it too much. Personally, I'm hoping for the darker setting (genocide, race war, human experimentation, etc.), same fucked up characters, but more interactions and happier ending. Some these characters I would really like to see befriended. Does the idea of Defense Unit or Eden being your Dragon Saviors or ATEMS, with similar dynamics to the drama CDs, sound intriguing at all?
Good night /mmg/+/inti/
>>564436370
>>564435292>Does the idea of Defense Unit or Eden being your Dragon Saviors or ATEMS, with similar dynamics to the drama CDs, sound intriguing at allMaybe. It depends on how many and in what manner it is done, generally I don't think small games like Gunvolt benefits from having a large cast of characters, you just sacrifice focus for the sake of quantity. I didn't personally care much for the Dragon Saviors or ATEMS, I thought it was incessant character bloat that didn't serve much purpose nor provided adequate development or satisfying conclusions for any of them, where the time could've been spent fleshing out the main narrative instead.
>>564434159>Lola is still around and getting games>literally releasing old games and flaying her to have somebody else wear her>and songs>one song that somehow still ends up being midIf you're talking about Lovelive they're still doing concerts and events this weekend, on September, and such. Yes that includes Copen's shin breaker.
Good morning /mmg/+/inti/
>>564437058
>>564434631It's been repeated several times before by others, but it's so over the top that I can't get over it. GV2's second to last fight was comedy for me. Let me walk you through it, and the point where it crosses over into farce:GV2 ended with you fighting a little orphan girl powered by love and the sacrifice of your imouto as she summoned the spirits of her dead adopted family to fight you (who you killed; also, said little girl was an imouto to the dead family):With love from the heart—Comrades, family—Return once more to this land.RESIDENT OF EDENThe secondary objective of stopping her from unleashing a song to empower a bunch of oppressed metahumans from rising up and slaughtering normies had taken a second seat to vengeance. She's very creepy, never showing your characters any malice as she attempts to terminate them. How could she, she's a being of love?After you struck a mortal wound, she starts sobbing for failing to realize the utopia she and the others had sacrificed everything for. The first moment she feels like a real human. Both player characters, despite knowing her bleak backstory, and having resonance with it, and/or caring deeply for somebody who is similar to her, do not sympathize at all with her. They do not see her as a lonely, scared, dying child, they do not see her as human. They do not comfort her, instead taunting and insulting her as she calls out her brother.That's the point where I started laughing. It had moved past being soul crushing to me. They were so inhuman as to be stupidly edgy. Like Sonic OC edgy. It was just a little too much over the line.Still one of the edgiest things I've ever seen in an anime game, and it's not helped by the aesthetic. If it didn't look so shonenesque, if the colors didn't pop so much, and the character designs weren't so cute yet sleek, it probably wouldn't edge so much into the ridiculous territory.Maybe that's why INTI overcorrected.
>>564436919>where the time could've been spent fleshing out the main narrative instead.the main narrative is just an excuse to reboot the story with the interesting dead characters everyone loves
>>564437557I think that's why GV3 threw some dialogue at vaguely guilting GV for it. Though I would have just had Serpentine-Tenjian call him a child killer instead of vaguely saying he crushed a young lady's dreams and left despair in his wake.
>>564438530I think it's because they didn't want to piss anyone off by acknowledging it, especially the Euros. Most of the other characters, despite their stated ages, can be argued to not look, sound, or feel like youths. Not Zonda. So anything with real Zonda, especially if violence is involved, is walked on like it's made out of eggshells. Gibril to a degree too. Why else would she not be a Serpentine illusion despite her VA being very affordable, really wanting to voice Gibril again, a pretty big deal in side material, and one of the most popular GV2 characters?
>>564437557If you want to be really meta about it, they're kids. And kids can be unbearably fucking cruel to each other, especially if they feel they've been wronged themselves. If anything, these young hormonal teens with way too much power going complete unhinged jungle law on each other without any remorse is probably the most realistic part about Gunvolt. It's all Lord of the Flies up in here.
>>564439298I don't know if that was the point or not, but classic GV always did have a sense of rawness. Despite the superintelligence and magic powers, despite the stakes, in the moment, with the banter and chuuni slogans, it felt like kids play fighting, until GV suddenly stabbed the other kid with a luxcalibur, and then everything became very real.
>>564439298Guess that's why Gunvolt only started to feel guilty after a few decades. It would have been more effective had they aged him up for Gunvolt 3. Adult Gunvolt I could easily see agonizing over the adepts he killed. You'd have to age up Kirin too, or the crush Gunvolt has would be more awkward than it already is.
>>564437965It's just so bizarre. Who makes a third game in a series that doesn't build upon the foundation set by it's predecessors, but is just an excuse to reboot the entire thing? Why not just reboot it to begin with?Is this a chojin locke thing?
>>564440609>It's just so bizarre.Only INTI. People assume the only things that are being carries forward are GV's character development (though he might not remember everything) and Xiao's plot line, but you could still do that even with a "reboot." Just reveal it to be part of Xiao's plot later on. GV1, but things start to deviate almost immediately and GV seems more chill? These are mysteries that can entice long time fans, keep them guessing. Then you give them the twists that this is actually a sequel reboot. FFVII did this very clumsily with their Remakes. You don't need an entire game with an excuse plot to justify it.
>>564437040For whom? After the gacha scam most of the fan it had took the Kurt Cobain way out of the fandom.Good times.
>>564439298Also Gunvoltiño comes from a land where showers electocute more people to death than the electric chairs.
>>564442420The fans. Something Lola lacks.
>>564439298By the time you're 14, you should have gained some empathy unless there's something wrong with you. Like I felt like shit for this asshole I despised at school when I found out his house was demolished in a storm. Even in LotF, Jack, the problem kid, had mental issues outside of being stranded on the island (he was a sociopath), and he eroded healthy group dynamics. And in a similar real world case, some teenagers were marooned on an island for 15 months. They ended being highly empathetic, working well together, and building extremely strong bonds that lasted for years. I guess there is plenty wrong with Gunvolt though, and definitely Copen.
>>564443046>Like I felt like shit for this asshole I despised at school when I found out his house was demolished in a stormLet me clarify. Back when I was 14. I am not currently 14. I have not been 14 for years.
>>564437040And what's the excuse game they have to not be kicked out of /vg/?
>>564443221Nobody fucking cares either way. I haven't seen an underb& in ages. You literally have to say I am ______ years old to get one anyway, so a complete retard asking for it.
>>564443346Do you actually care or do you just need an excuse to gossip about other threads?
>>564443046>>564443221I'm on the other side. These last 15 years of my life showed me that you can't expect anything but malise from other people, that you can and should judge others based on their race and gender and that mercy is always payed back with betrayal.
>>564443346Offline preservation of the gacha and the two Yohane games which is far more than what you can say about some generals.
Do you dare enter the Gibu?
>>564443737You are the one who started so I assumed that they were still viable and profitable to still be making videogames. Roro is.
>>564443996>Roro is.>doesn't actually have a new game lined up
>>564443996You think everyone calling you out is the same person, hilarious
>>564440069He's got some pretty good muscle definition there for his age, Nori has really put him through the wringer.Or maybe he just does like Conan and pushes the wheel of pain for 10 years.
>>564443805I expect it to be full of tentacles. I've seen too much hentai...
>>564444202I never expected to see Conan (the only fictional charcater with more confirmed rapes than Rance) and Copen be compared. Ever.
>>564444505It was just the first thing that entered my mind. Clearly a very good exercising machine.
Funniest backlore about Gibril and Desna were that they were both recycled from concepts for Quinn. Originally, Quinn was a redheaded rocker punk tomboy with golden eyes, then she was a head in the clouds long haired brunette who guided GV with her star-readings, before they settled on Quinn, because Tsuda wanted a normal person to contrast the outrageous personalities of the adepts. You can still see remnant of this in Quinn's design (the rings on her dress were originally meant to be "moons") even though she does no star readings or mystic shit at all. You could see how well a "normal person to contrast the adepts" was received by everyone.
>>564445521Kohaku did land better. But her main thing is that she could pretend to be an adept because she developed a killer body very young and is more naked than Roro.
>>564445948Kohaku is probably a Senary-holder (near-Adept). These are people who are supernaturally fit, intelligent/knowledgeable, or lucky, but don't have flashy anime powers. Senary is the 6th level of the Lifewave, while Septima is the 7th. For that fact, Copen is probably one to. The fact that he can just pick up something, and know everything about it, or he can master any skill under a few days reads like he has a supernatural ability.
>>564445948Kohaku was also pretty bad. She got better though.
>>564446497>The fact that he can just pick up something, and know everything about it, or he can master any skill under a few days reads like he has a supernatural ability.Went back and looked. Misremembered this. It said in the complete work that he's a genius at anything he put his mind too. Still, I think he's a Senary, just because he's so above the norm. The complete works also say that has incredible battle sense and intelligence, allowing him to keep up the superhuman reflexes and capabilities of adepts.
>>564446956>So we have this new girl that's basically redundant because of Roro>But she has less personality than Roro>I know let's put Roro inside her
>>564447279Too bad that's the fake ending.
Which way, Gunvolto?
>>564448173Title is "Help Me, Don't Help Me"Perfect name for Gunvolt 2 doujin, don't you think?
Sniffing Cial panties...
>>564448173>>564448348Half of GV2's doujins end up being this depressing melancholic Zonda shit. Maybe that's why it never gets scanned.
>>564448173>ryonaNo...
>>564448709Ryona and NTR is all we got. That's the lifeblood of the series.The series would've never existed if Shinobu didn't get NTR'd out of her fated marriage, by her own sister.
>>564449137>Ryona and NTR is all we got. That's the lifeblood of the series.Taimanin is two pages down.
>>564448752Accurate to the feel of the source material then. These fights are supposed to be really nasty, else how would Copen be retrieving quarts of blood and body parts from GV's fights. There's also the short stories that describe GV's powers cooking adepts, causing skin to char and rupture, and that's not pretty either. Then in iX2, because we're dealing with robots, we can finally slice and dice em. The only reason it's not M rate is because it's all abstracted.
>>564421998Majogami also had a terrible demo but the game itself turned out to be fine enough. I'll wait until I play the full game before I judge, don't believe any retarded reviewers out there.
>>564449589This is extremely rude behavior and NOT what you should do when a girl invites you into her personal wonderland.
>>564450592>into her personal wonderlandSorry. She's getting the lightning blade until she turns to ash and calling a priest to conduct a full exorcism.
>>564432160>Tragedy porn is good in doses,>but you can only handle so much before it becomes gratingEventually, it ends up as a parody, and you stop caring. I could no longer get invested in Souls NPCs, because they're going to go insane, or die, and give up their armor. Siegmeyer was sad, Siegward was a fucking joke, and by Elden Ring, I could not give one iota of a fuck about any single NPC, and treated them with the expectation they were all going to die retarded nothing deaths.>Yeah yeah nice sob story, hurry up and keel over and give me your unique armor.As such, despite Inti's best efforts at fleshing out their characters, I cannot find myself to care about them, when they're treated no different from X-era reploids>Maybe a line of dialogue, and then you kill themTruly epic. It does sound like Inti has gotten better about this, but I don't even want to bother.
>>564437557>RESIDENT OF EDENMe being the Zonda and Gibrilfag that I am, noticed that she sounds more emotional in the Jap version of both her haikus than the international. Here's the timestamp of voice lines for comparison:https://youtu.be/LKCNCk9cz2I?t=83She breaks character in the original Japanese. Whereas in the international, she maintains her calm.

Why did INTI retcon Zonda into just a figurehead for Eden? She went from being the supreme leader and founder, to the co-leader, to now just a figurehead. Some the blurbs will say she just follows whatever Tenjian tells her to do. They keep on making her less and less culpable, putting more and more of it on Tenjian. This coincides with making her cuter. Like her features keep getting rounder and softer with each retcon.Literally INTI doing Zonda dindu nuffin.
>>564472904>GV2 = Zonda is supreme leader. Tenjian obeys Zonda like her knight. She's a mastermind who comes up with all of Eden's plots.>Eden's Party = she's co-leaders with Tenjian. Tenjian tries to shield her, but she can still overrule him. They treat each others as equals, and bounce ideas back and forth. They come up with plans together.>GV3 = Tenjian is clearly taking the lead in calling attacks and bossing Zonda around.>Card-en-Ciel = Zonda has no real organizational power, she submits to her brother like she's Joule to Gunvolt, Tenjian makes all the important shots.Oh shit, you're right. What a character assassination.

>>564480451Full priced finished game by the way.
Greetings,While it was planned for Kingdom's Return to launch at midnight on April 23rd, due to a setting in the back end beyond our control, we require Valve support to release the title as planned.As it is currently outside of Valve's operating hours, we will unfortunately have to delay the release by what we expect to be a few hours.The issue should be resolved quickly once Valve is able to support us.We apologize for the wait, and we greatly appreciate your patience.INTI CREATES
>>564481124What an amazing company.
SOVLful company
>>564481124Thanks, Valve!
>>564481124as far as I can tell you're not missing muchthis game is thin as shit unless I'm missing something
>>564482148>inti releases more shovelwareO!Mai!Goto!!!Who could've known?!?
>>564448720She's fine, but Witch is just plain better in every way.
>>564483370Why Inti made Lumen instead of Roro the race wars queen.
>>564471214>Z2.2 Believe in Zero route
art we once again daburu Z2
>>564494429If you have a suggestion go on, but I need my weekly atsuku nare dose either way
>>564481124How nice of valve and interactive image creates to worry about us wageslavesSurely it'll get unlocked after a normal wageslave day

>killing the most popular charcater on the first game Did IGA learn one of INTI many tricks?
What's Inti's next game after Kingdom's Return?
>>564501448bankruptcy
>>564501448A licensed game
>>564501448Anything but Flamefrit 2 which will lead to >>564501673
>>564502230But Flamefrit flopped?
>>564502586April fool's flop don't count
>>564501448Tactical Communication. Still comming out before Mina The Hollower.
>>564500213She got better though.
>>564481365Yeah, fuck Valve.
>>564500213>he missed classic mode II>>564501448Real answer is Luminous Avenger iX3, pic related.
>>564501448If you are the head of marketing asking us this because your bosses ran out of ideas. How about you make one of the 4 CnC games people have been begging them to do or just Hire Cougar and Make PuzzmiX 2 with more ecchi and a versus mode.
>>564502869>flamefrit flops>yohane is one of nuinti's recent best sellers
>>564504874And instead of hiring them again they went to develop several gacha scam that flopped. Sasuga Quoirs.
>>564504873>just this artist that is worse than their in-house artistsBrilliant plan, anon.
>>564504997They realized inti retardation wasn't worth it. And they were right.
>>564504873>why don't they just make one of the 4 fake CnC games no one but two anons on a niche south argentinian fish trawling forum gives a shit about
>>564505087If so then why is everybody working the crab cages in Alaska?
>>564500213>first gameI don't remember Bloodstained ever getting a real sequel. Cotm is a spinoff. It's kind of a dead series.
>>564479693More like her big bro's hate led her astray. Pretty soon, it'll be Tenjian was responsible for all the evil stuff Eden did, Zonda was innocent. INTI keeps whitewashing her because she's cute.
>>564505483So it's better focus on another game like Umbraclaw that nobody gives a shit about instead? Or in Compile Hearts level projects?
>>564504874That was a weird "girl and her dog" phase Inti was in.And looking at some of the Majogami promotional art, we aren't quite out of it yet.
Why are we going so fast
>>564505830It backfired so bad that Inti made Umbraclaw to curse correct out of that and they should have made Cut Cats instead . But that backfired too so I guess it's Kirin time once more.
>>564505771>Tenjian personally transplanted the Azure Striker septima into Gunvolt>Tenjian convinced Asimov to become evil>Tenjian mentored Dr. Kamizono>Tenjian tortured Elise>Tenjian killed Copen's parents>Tenjian caused GV3 to exist>Tenjian did 911>Tenjian faked the moonlanding>Tenjian killed JFK>Tenjian sank the titanic>Tenjian performed the russian sleep experiments>Tenjian funded MK ultra>Tenjian is the dotard>Tenjian created crypto>Tenjian made Vi a lesbian>Tenjian created the bogdanof bloodline>Tenjian funded both sides of every war>Tenjian pushes for AI and datacenters
>>564505863You would be amazed what having a constant flow of news does for a general. Turns out we didn't need a gacha like X dive or Teppen to go on!
>>564506474And yet, his list of sins is but a fraction of what Alia has done.
>>564506474>Tenjian ran over Kuon with a truck rig so big it could flatten a Manatee.
>>564505781Well we can agree on that. Inti needs to read the room and return to their "cool" shonen roots, not all this compile heart moeshit they've fed us for four years straight.Also, jump on the Metroidvania/Roguelite bandwagon, preferably before the iron turns cold.
>>564473874>>564479693>>564474582Do Zondafags actually like her getting infantilized by INTI? From "I call all the shots, I am the mastermind, Tenjian is my Queen bitch" to "I only have symbolic power, Tenjian controls everything."
>>564506474>Blaming a chinaman for the things a very peculiar group of individuals have done
>>564504874Inti should go back to making licensed games instead of """original"""shit.Too bad no one is hiring cheap 2D devs, especially after pissing off IGA's studio and ending relationship with Sunsoft...
>>564507450No, the minos genocide has to be done at hands of a gaki in need of correction. Tenjian would just be reverse Copen or incel Zed.
>>564507652>Too bad no one is hiring cheap 2D devs, especially after pissing off IGA's studio and ending relationship with Sunsoft...Actually, I lied, they can always go beg ArcSys for Nekketsu or Double Dragon. Surely Inti can't do worse than Wayforward.
>>564507652Sunsoft did that themselves because they drank the Love Live Kool Aid and thought that they could do better themselves.
>>564507992>Surely Inti can't do worse than Wayforward.Or YUKE.
>>564507652The problem is that big corporations talk and Inti already managed to piss off one of the bigger ones on their hometurf. Who the hell would hire them?>can't work unity>can't work unreal>can't figure out netcode>next to zero experience with 3d modelingThe quality of their games also speaks for itself, or rather lack thereof.I'm going to laugh myself into a fucking coma if they get tapped by IF/Compa to ressurect some old NES series, we've truly come full circle then. Even though I love The Guardian Legend.
>>564507992But Double Dragon Neon is the best Double Dragon game by far.
>>564507652>>564508000This is Sunsoft in 2026 btwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jFWn2PNlaE
>>564508232Inti pissed off Nintendo?
>>564507652Inti should be teaming up with the new age ecchi studios like Qureate (Bunny Garden, former D3 publisher staff) and Nanairo (Turret Girls, former Bullet Girls studio staff) to make 2D spin offs of their games with lots of ecchi CGs. Both of these studios games have sold well over 100k (Bunny Garden series possibly close to 500k), it's certainly better than going the Compile Heart route of making family friendly shit nobody asked for.
>>564507652Tanya The Evil and Goblin Slayer are perfect for them.>>564508423Dammit, there goes Roro surviviors.
inter will usher a new golden age in the golden sun mines
>>564508738What about Teaming up with Pupuya?
>>564508423Wtf, Tesse LIVES? Let's go!
>>564509035I wish his pink Nobeta game wasn't H. I just want ecchi games. I don't want to see the girls raped and impregnated.
Lev getting raped and impregnated.
Lev getting raping and impregnating.
>>564509919>Lev >Raped
>>564508294Fighting one on Neo-Geo is the best Double Dragon game, and I say this despite generally prefering beltscrollers.Speaking of Neon, it might be the most competently made beat 'em up gameplay, but it is absolutely soulless. I would rather replay Zeebo and iOS games.
>>564510038Right. It's not rape if there are hearts in the text bubbles.
>>564505863We're REALLY excited over Inti's newest masterpiece.
>>564510164>but it is absolutely soulless. They fucking hired the VA for Skelletor and have him do one of the best songs straight out of a Queen album ever for the credits! Are you fucking insane?
>>564509697I want to see all the rape, correction and impregnation I can get. In fact, Inti should just pivot to R18 doujin games. They'd sell more than they do now.
>>564501448Dragon Marked For Death 2.
https://x.com/fujichamo/status/2046927985081823719
>>564510164Which one though? Double Dragon or Rage of Dragons? There are 2 snk fighting DD
>>564511365I like Rage of the Dragons more, but it also technically not a Double Dragon game.
>>564511940It has Billy and Jimmy, it is as much Double Dragon as that snes fighter garbage related to the cartoon.
It's over
It's not over until the Lev jumps
>>564501448LaiX3 and GV4 maybe after.
I know...I know I've let you down...
>>564513981But there's no EVA until Z3
>>564512416It has original characters do not steal
Do it for her
>>564514838Made for orcs.
>>564514838Laugh at anyone who actually buys her shit game?
why isn't kingdom's return out yetI was told it would only take a few hours; it has been 10I've been impatiently waiting all day
>>564514431So it does the other snk DD, not all the characters are from the movie.The canonicity of each game is equally irrelevant to the first 3 Double Dragon games. The Battletoads crossover is more canon than every other entry even.
>>564505483hey that's two more than the average
I AM SO MAD THAT I CANNOT ENTER SHOPSWHAT DO YOU MEAN I CAN BUILD A WEAPON SHOP AN ARMOR SHOP AND ACCESSORY SHOP AND A GENERAL STOREAND I CAN'T BUY ANYTHING
>>564517540I wonder if this guy haven't played the demo or just retarded.
>>564509919>>564510035>>564510250
>>564518787I typed a message but it disappeared somehow.
>>564518934iris ate it
>>564515472You're not missing out on much. It's like a heavily watered down DMFD.I mean, really heavily watered down.
>>564519969at least DMFD HAD SHOPS
>>564499291>>563760510
>>564520149And characters that were meaningfully different with multiple different playstyles each as well as more content and more interesting bosses and not to mention multiplayer.
>>564519969I loved DMFD and would gladly play even a watered down versionIt still isn't out yet. This is the third time an inti game had trouble releasing on steam I'm starting to get suspicious that either someone at steam does not like inti or whoever does this on inti's side is very incompetent
all melts cancelled for zettai hero project melt to show what a proper "character-map building game" looks like

I wonder how morale is at Inti these days.
War was beginning.
>>56452385050 morale and no Yell to raise it
What happen ?
>>564524705The kingdom did not return.
The kingdom is in the heart
>>564525876maybe birthbysleepmelt after z2melt
>>564526171Hakai>Birth>Saisei?
>>564521232Yeah, I'm there too. There's not even anything lewd this time. Sauce?
>>564526250who knows when saisei will be ready
Somebody set up us the bomb.
>>564472904Eden are anarchists/communist/cultists, so technically don't have a hierarchy or class structure. Zonda, the G7, and every grunt and noncombatant all have the same "worth." In practice, there is a loose hierarchy, and their figureheads do actually call the shots. Being the figurehead and priestess is as good as being THE leader of Eden.
>>564525876Kigdom Return but with Aztecs would be very cool. Going out on adventure to find people to sacrifice and enslave for upgrades would be very cool.
>make 2 sets of character skins as DLC>game doesn't even have a male/female option for the base rosterWhy is Inter like this?
>>564515123Anon, no. She has to level up getting raped and giving birth some goblins before she's ready for the orcs. But I trusy that Imperial will be able to work her way into minotaurs or even cyclopses.
>>564526484I can wait. I'm positive it'll come out before Corrupted and Chrono X at least.
>>564528379The wizard girl is for the goblins.Little dumb humie not speak any spells when goblin plap-plaps her mouth hole.
>>564528319>why is lazy creates like this?
We get signal.
>>564528731We have Aluxes here.
What !
might resume activities soon, things may start to move again
Main Screen Turn On.
>>564528319This annoys me more than it should. What's the point of reviving the Kingdom's Return IP if they're going to fill the game with more crossover slop than actual KR characters?
Their priority for KR should've been making sure each class has a 100% flat-chested loli option.
>>564529847You mean a DUENDE?!?OY OY OY OY OY
>>564535038based
>>564521232It's definitely people at Inti being retarded. They changed the release time last second and are blaming the problem on Steam. Considering Switch 2 release apparently was going to have a -10% release sale and they messed that up, I'd figure they were going to do the same with the Steam release but fucked up and went panic mode.
>>564537016>Inti>being retardedAnd all's right with the world.
>>564536267At least aluxes and chaneques don't steal toes.
>>564538923As long as we all agree that all gnomes are bastards.
>>564528731NO! Goblins are way too rought for wizard girls.
Remember what Pantera said:>love good, hate bad, marry anime Such inspirational words.
Remember what Pantera said:>Lev good, marry Lev
>>564540883Wait a minute, that's not Pantera at all!It's Lev!
:p
To Lev, or not to Lev...
>>5645431192 :p
>>564543227Not to Lev.
>>564505729>I don't remember Bloodstained ever getting a real sequel.Its coming out this year, dumdum.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAcdoBT2Duk
>>564505508Ask Lola when(if) she comes back.
>>564537016Wouldn't the date change automatically if the game couldn't release on time? Their news post did say the issue was from Valve's end.
>>564544463It's inti. They probably didn't report it until after the release.
What if Kingdom's Return unironically is an un-cancelled DSi Ware game? Think about it:>in game graphics look just about DS tier>low budget enough to not even have voice acting>simple and short>would have released around the same time they were coming out with the mobile game (brand synergy or whatever the fuck)Wouldn't even be the first time something like this happened considering Dragon Marked for Death was originally being made for the fucking PSP. Probably finished it up as a filler game to buy some time until LAiX3 and GV4/2.5 is ready. Would also explain why it exists to begin with because I can guarantee you that no one, not even in Japan probably was asking for this IP to come back, no I still don't buy that this was that fan requested sequel they were hinting at around the end of 2024.
>>564545698it feels like a gacha gamewhich I guess is fitting given
>>564545698You got baited, they planned to make a gacha but sold it to you instead, and it's going to look real silly when a gacha releases that's combining multiple things that inti's tried selling separately.
>>564543332There's more than 10000 Luna clones and none of them can cook. Is this more core to her than the drills?
>>564540628>FM says that strength and cognitive ability increases as you move up in Lifewave levelThe lowest level lifewave an adept would consider is senary. Like a guy on the first three levels (where all of us are) would stand no chance. Reminder that the GV Light Novel literally says in the very first paragraph that intelligence, physical fitness, and attractiveness are usually connected to lifewave level.Senaries were so hot and strong that people thought they were demigods in ancient times. What does that make adepts in comparison, especially because the increases are not linear, they're accelerating? Sure, there are overlaps, cause a really hot or intelligent senary is going to be hotter or smarter than an okay adept, but still. And what does that make us in comparison to adepts? What does that make us compared to the strong adepts, who are to adepts what adepts are to us? We could never reach their heights. We are unworthy.I think most adept killings are just angry and depressed adeptcels (involuntary adept celibate, can have sex with 100 normie woman, but can never put it into an adept woman so develops an Elliot Rodgers frustration towards them).
>building stats cap at 50WHAT THE FUCK IS THE POINT THEN
I can't believe console players are already finishing kingdom's return before it even comes out on steamI guess I'll just have to mentally add a week to all of inti's steam releases from now on since they can't seem to get a game out on time
>>564554879>Only a weekDidn't Flamefrit release like a month later on Steam compared to Switch?
>>564555287inti wanted to do something stupid with the game like release it a month early but only if you bought card-en-ciel right? then steam told them no we can't do that so they made everyone wait.Majogami was a content issue I think? I don't remember if they gave a real explanation as to why it took an extra weekAll we know for kingdom's return is that it should be easy to fix as soon as value is in their office and it's been all day and nothing happened
In other words Inti fucked up again
In other words Lev fucks
>>564556406They had to put a "mature content" warning on Majogami because I guess Valve thought it was too spicy while it released on Switch just fine.
>>564378497I'm sure there's some dumb internal policy stating that mainline and iX can never interact, but I want an excuse for Gunvolt and Blade to fight one another. He has Mobius with him so there's no reason they can't dimension-hop.
Reminder that today is Pantera's birthday. What's your surprise for her?
>>564558357So it is.
>highlighting the basic electric skill on Wizard's class circle immediately crashes the Switch 2 versionAt least Inti makes sure they fuck up every version, no favoritism here.
>>564558357>>564558548VA birthdays don't count
>>564556876more like immature warning ToT
>>564558357Next OP?
>>564558553We've been telling you Imperial is the best class for a reason
>>564533001>>564338203
>>564558357
>>564558357I really hope we get her as a major character in Gunvolt 4 under an okay translation team just to confirm how accurate the English script of Gunvolt 2 really was. Zonda was the absolute worse translation of the script according to Gunvoltfags, so we should be able to make a quality analysis off of that spot check.
>>564560127>skipping It's You !!Never attempt to post AYBABTU again.
>>564537016looks like you're rightthey've decided to make it available at full price but extend the pre-order bonus instead of giving us the 10% sale
man is there any reasonable way to deal with the fire summonning pots
>>564560537I'm pretty sure inti scammed me cause I didn't get the DLC for free
>>5645602388-4's script isn't even consistent to INTI's in-house translations. See Nike, were every INTI article says she doesn't like being called a Goddess, or the translated comics where she's creeped out by it, then we get to 8-4, and she's manaically calling herself the Goddess of Eden throughout her fights. It isn't even internally consistent. 8-4 Zonda is straight up the antichrist. She doesn't care about anyone but herself. When she talks to her followers, she adopts this very affectionate tone, but once she's alone with Gunvolt, she's extremely cold and dismissive of their sacrifices and "love." They're just things for her gain, including her own brother. Yet when she's dying, her last thoughts are for her brother. We're anime fans. Even if it's not subbed, we can tell when a little girl starts crying and says onii-chan what she means, even if nothing else. You can't square that with any of her prior characterization. Also, all the fanart and INTI art shows them with a close relationship. Finally, you can tell she's not saying "GV" insultingly because she very clearly enunciates Gunvolto every time.
https://x.com/ReploidREVO/status/2047402146362986838Kino is back on the menu boys
>>564561371He(you) can fuck right off.
>>564561478Why were the Gunvoltfags able to scare their Revo into hiding/taking down his 8 hour video but the MMfags, with their numbers, could not?
>>564561478>implyingNever forget the man who gave you Intercreates are makers of bad plots.A broken clock is right twice a day.
>>564561162You were scammed from the beginning.
>that time of the game where you hunt down 4 elemental bosseswow it would be really funny if the game only had 4 locations
>>564561636Most MegaMan fans don't give a shit about lore/character like INTIfags. INTIfags are autistic enough to explain to you that Gunvolt's prevasion works by molecularly shifting yourself, so stuff passes through you, but it feels really nasty so it lowers your score. They will take apart every single inconsistency like the sweatiest nolife weeb neckbeards imaginable.Meanwhile, in MegaMan, the buster works because it works. It shoots a white glowy ball of energy that blows stuff up. It runs on ETanks I guess. What are ETanks ? I don't know, why do you care? How/Why does Sigma transform from a normal-sized reploid into a torso with a bladed phalus that shoots beams at you, three small heads, and a giant head with tentacles coming out of it that tries to kill you with blow jobs? I can assure you there's nothing to read into it. It's MegaMan. It's a video game. Learn to have fun. It's like asking what's the physics of why Mario gets big when he eats shrooms or throws hammers when eats a hammer. That's just the way it works.Second, I don't think Revo was ever stupid enough to piss off the Rollfags like that dude pissed off the Zondafags. He really took a shit all over Zonda. It was amazing. Rollfags are the most insane part of the MegaMan fandom. Well Zondafags are that to the INTIfandom.
>>564561636Revo literally ran off and hid for months. He's just trying to slink his way back.
>>564563391>>564561636>Revo literally ran off and hid for months.>Gunvoltfags scare their Revo into hiding/taking down his 8 hour videoYou love to see it.
it's actually kind of surprising how long it took inti to make a parryslop character
>>564565526Parry feels like it should be a base mechanic rather than being exclusive to the lady-knight. Like, maybe give her the counterattack moves, but timed blocks should be for everyone.
bravo inti 5 hour game
>>564558553god damn you weren't kidding
>>564566953I'm just waiting for the gal gun DLC to play it. May as well enjoy it with cute Maya and Kurona
>>564561162are you looking in the right place? you can't start as the dlc skin; you need to play the tutorial and then you can toggle them from the status menu.

I'm going back to my fishwife
>>564558553>>564566953I really do have to wonder if a game company can survive like this in current day when there's so much competition. If a gigantic studio can't weather multiple blunders then how can a smallish team with niche appeal?

>>564558553>>564567230It only crashes if you have your language set to english, so there's at least a workaround. Pretty fucked up that a bug like this made it into the game at all though.
>>564571759in fairness, I'm in no position to complaining about shit crashing when translated into English
>Inti basically rushed out Bokura no KingdomYou just know "iX3" is going to have buzz saw bugs now.
I don't even think there's any true ending bullshit this time
>>564572085when was the last time inti not rushing a release anyway? it seems like everything they do lately is pushed hard by very strict deadline
>>564571759Supposedly that one bug that crashes score attack in the trilogy collection was the same deal.This is what happens when you lose Matt Papa.
>rated CERO A/ ESRB E family game>no CG of the knight girl getting her armor ripped by orcs>no CG of wizard chan failing explosion magic and knocked on the ground covered in ash with a panty shotMeeeeh, Inti you had such a nice 2025.

>>564572694Never, even in their Capcom days their fast development cycles were infamous. The main difference between now and then is that they used to be good at developing games quickly.

>>564568506Im still playing this game, it is pretty good. Can you ever farm that currency to level up the shopkeeper and astrals? So far (up to Act 6) only appears in limited spots and not a lot is given.
>>564578056>FIGUREHEAD>A figurehead is a person in a high-ranking, nominal leadership position with little to no actual power, often acting as a symbolic representativeSo much for being the evil Ciel of Gunvolt. She doesn't even get to lead her own Evil Resistance organization anymore. Retconned from being the evil mastermind of Eden to just a figurehead. I bet INTI will have retconned her feats in reverse engineering glaivetech with paperclips and toothpicks in under a month without binding brands and figuring out how to combine septima/make octima next (something NOBODY else has managed to do, even decades after her birth).
I think Lev might be retarded

>>564580770Exactly, she's not cute at all.
okay I built all four elemental statues and the king statue and knight status and still nothingthis is some bs
Zondafags, how do you feel about her Triangle redesign?
>>564579754No, but there's more of it than you actually need to max everything. Most of it comes from the store owls.
Some of these bosses are pretty good. I like the dragon.
>>564581575The artist's style just shifted over time
>>564581575>proportions chubbier, rounder, poofier>iconic eye design with tripple lashes gone>no more bedroom eyesAt least she got bushier eyelashes.>>564582947Kinda. Before, she looked older than Joule. Now, she looks the same age, maybe slightly younger.For whatever reason, she always looks older in the ingame art though. Doesn't change that Gunvolt killed her.
How do you upgrade your castle?
>>564583371you progress through the story
>all magic gems are used for building statues, except the silver oneAHHH
>>564583283The ingame art hasn't been updated in ten years.
I can't wait until the next thread. It's gonna be EPIC!
>>564584017Even in the design works, she looks younger than the ingame art.
>>564558942You know they're desperate when they're unironically seiyuufagging
>>564558548She voices one of my favorite shota.Happy Birthday!
(Updated April 24, 2026)・An issue where the game would forcefully quit when selecting the "Shock Volt" skill in the Wizard's Class circle while playing in English has been fixed.We have also received reports that save data is not able to be transferred from the demo on the Steam Deck.In order to transfer save data on the Steam Deck, demo data must be uploaded as a Cloud Save, and then downloaded in the full version. An option should then appear on the title screen to transfer the data.
>>564586453>An issue where the game would forcefully quit when selecting the "Shock Volt" skillof course it's gunvolt ruining things again
What is fainting?
>>564586748they get dizzy for a few seconds, it's like being stunned. happens on bosses tooit's a pretty nice perk but I'd make defense/MND a higher priority
>>564586849Not bad.The whole bottom section of the tree is behind those really unimpressive holy ray skills. 20 power? Please. Maybe defense, though.
>>564587083the best skills IMO are leaping slash, counter, and potent smash. Smark Knight was pretty good the few times I tried too, though I preferred to rely on potent smash. You'll want a quick damage-dealing special.status effects get annoying later, so that might be good to pick up if convenient.
>>564587318Is Emperor Sword good? It at looks cool, at least.Spark Knight is fantastic.
>>564588459a lot of damage, takes too long IMOlater bosses have a short window where they stand there and you have about enough time to get a potent smash off. it's too short for emperor sword to get all its hits in
