Dang, you guys are still around.I really need to fucking play Metaphor. I bought it days after release solely for Hulkenberg and only got 2 hours in before it was relegated to backlog because of my life.

So we all know Rella came from Louis' vision of the future, but is she enough of a sadist in bed that cursing the prince and getting to examine him afterward got her wet?

>>564806780>There being no way to say that definitivelyExcept there is, it's called actually playing the game
Went in a fairly different direction (by which I took the colors from Wolf from Sekiro instead of Gehrman from Bloodborne) but I think this looks better than the extremely dark brown with metaphor's colors and lighting
Bit of an animation oddity - during a bunch of the battle animations where Will normally doesn't have his mother's sword on his hip, the bones the sword is rigged to are moved all the way to the other side of the body before floating back into the sheath at the end of the animation. This is the dodge animation for example. Every weapon type has a separate animation pack but this seems to be consistent for all of them
I hate this game so fucking much
>>564827943whats goin on with his left arm
>>564830225Dont worry if metaphir knew you existed it would hate you too
I still love Metaphor so much
Metaphor rerelease but the new third act is a Demonbane ripoff
Gallidog
Maybe someday soon the devs can get their act together
Yeah this stands out a lot better in pretty much every lighting scenario
>>564893562looking great
Something you really can't see all that well ingame are the animations that play every time you summon an archetype which are unique for the whole party. For most of the party members the animations focus on quick dramatic body movement since that's about all you're going to be able to get a glimpse of before the particle effects take over, but they must've made Will's animation before they figured that part out because he's got this nasty scowl on during his.
>>564902674Basilio's for comparison
>>564902861For Junah's they were so locked into not being able to see it from another angle at that point that they play a trick with the camera. Her arm is literally going through her face in hers (using a modded model so it's easier to see but it's like this on all of the actual ingame ones too)
>>564903235Eupha's animation is less dependent on the camera angle but her armpit is coming apart at the seams a little. Also, while her cape from the epilogue is rigged to all the same bones as her regular clothing it's not cleaned up enough to be used in battle, just like Strohl's. It would take less work than his because she just needs a better rig with less clipping instead of a whole set of animation packs for every weapon type with the cape physics because they just barely got away with giving him a big cape at all by rigging it to his spine.

In Japan there's now a very hard push to reexamine article 9, probably the hardest push the LDP's made in over a decade. The supermajority in the lower chamber of government is one of the big reasons why this is happening, not being able to send ships to the gulf to counter the IRGC constitutionally which effectively led to Japan needing to get oil from the USA is another big factor. On top of this, cultural exchange with the USA is at the highest it's been in years because of Elon Musk auto translating X posts in both languages in an effort to help anti-liberal cultures connect. Hashino will doubtlessly want his next game to focus on a lot of these things going on right now and god knows Persona 6 will just be some hamfisted game that will pretend it will solve the meaning of life with the deepest narrative of all time so gen alpha will buy it. Given how Metaphor already touched on positive aspects of globalism, would Metaphor 2 be about tearing borders down/stopping at nothing to preserve them or would it be more of a nationalism centered game?
>>565088816when you have enough power
>>565090352You are way too desperate to portray Hashino as some anti-globalist. He's run of the mill boomer liberal with japanese characteristics.
>>565090918>Given how Metaphor already touched on positive aspects of globalismCan you read
>>565090918He has 0 liberal qualities whatsoever desu Progressivism in Japan is very rarely liberal at all and is way more like the just left of center like the american right
>>565090352dude I don't care, can we talk about the color of Louis's asshole or something
>>565092650it would the shade of the red / pink around his eyes
>>565092650>noooo I don't want an actual discussion about something anything but that
In the end every Atlus game ever was about taking up personal initative and self improvement in some way and never much politics. Metaphor is again mostly about overcoming your anxities and moving forward to collaborate.
>>565092650pink and loose
>>565093467Persona 6 will be about orange man bad because Wada thinks the audience will love it after spending 30 seconds in a room with Larrue

>>565093467SMT was always a counterculture game but it was funny watching /smtg/ act like the series was suddenly going to become very pro-Iran recently

I bought a ticket to the orchestra concert cuz I saw an ad for it at the hatsune miku concert I went toit's like 3 rows away from the front, really really close and for $200 it honestly felt like a bargainanyone here ever go to any orchestra concerts? are they loud enough to require earplugs?
>>565147398every concert requires earplugs, consistent noises are always something you need to protect your hearing from. stay safe sis
I flopped
what made this game flop
>>565172838your mom's cunt was too small
yawn
>>565172838Metaphor fans don't get triggered by retards pretending it flopped, only the persona fans that say this shit in an effort to feel better about how fucked their series is end up getting triggered
>>565183647
Sex out the berg
To be fair about things I don't think anyone is happy with Atlus right now because of how little they're doing to satisfy the current market >EO is dead >Devil Survivor is dead >almost half a year into persona 30th and nothing >not a drop of support for Metaphor since it came out but at least there's some effort to get the concert overseas>only game released in 2025 was a flopped raidou port that gutted the game's art style and made dumb as fuck script and story changes

YEAHHHH METAPHOR
It's still very strange that Atlus basically refused to release an artbook for anything that came out in 2024 besides pantload Meta at least has the excuse of the exhibition but they're selling the merch for that at pop up stores now so they're at the very least not doing any more in Japan
>>565332265Last time I said this the local resident faggot called me delusional for trying to expect an artbook, even though quite literally every other franchise / game under the sun has gotten its artbook in the past few months.
>>565333098As I just said only one of them did and it was for the crummy remake
>>565333654Wasn't talking about Atlus games. Because Atlus hasn't even released the bare minimum artbook for VV either.

>one month away from the Microsoft shitshow The great atlus generals consolidation is going to happen after that when SMT and Metaphor both get nothing
>>565452184It'll probably actually be time to retire /meta/ for awhile if it comes to that but I will post about it on /smtg/ no matter what I already talk about it there in bits and pieces anyway
>>565452184even if we get nothing, we will survive
>>565457612Prolly not desu
Just put everything together except leave /pg/ out to dry. This is the best solution even if it will piss off a couple /eog/ schizoids that can't live in a world where metaphor exists
It feels so bizarre to me as someone who had been in the original 2011 /smtg/ before /vg/ creation and that also saw the /pg/ split happen in real time see how Atlus has nosedived so hard to the point the PERSONA general has now ultimately died (the main reason why smtg even split in the first place).Now, neither Atlus game is big enough for their own generals either./segag/ would be good but that would also mean acknowledging sanicfags so no. In the end every general has to be invading the other to talk about something.
>>565466354/pg/ is only in the state that its in because after the initial wave of SEA schizophrenia passed most of their regulars went to /p5x/, but it was already populated with people that didn't play the games way before the steam ports and p3 reload ruined the fanbase permanently Single player rpgs also just don't get longevity on /vg/ anymore when the market long since drowned in gachas unless they have constant content coming, and atlus has never even tried to adapt to that kind of market. In fact they've even regressed from where they were because SMTIV had a post release roadmap for DLC while V didn't, and Metaphor didn't get a drop of post release DLC when P5 vanilla had the DLC costume releases.
where are the dozen spin-offs?
when i will ascend i will be happy and i will find a loving foid

How much longer until the announcement?
>>565524004Resimfonio is on June 5th or 6th which is when the summer showcase events are also happening, bare minimum atlus will maybe do an unveiling of how the p4 demake looks after a year of silence but that's when we're expecting something for metaphor if anything is coming this yearThe only notable rerelease that took another year after the release of the original to get announced was SMTVV
>>565529786Who in Euchronia would make pizza? We have Japanese subculture sticking around via a race that was there since during the war but no Italians
