cute and canon. Global CBT soon.
They both suck my dick btw
>>1860434I dont know about this game but I'll assume this is true
>>1860427What are the implications of Promilia by not removing Blumine?
>>1860453It confirms the developers aren't schizophrenic retards trying to cater to 1 poster on /vmg/.
Blumine stays as my wife and first member of my harem.
mixed toilet status
>>1860427yuri is the most purest form of love
>>1860427reminder that only third-world shitters from the Genshin Impact general use the name "blumine"
It's Azurmine
>>1860453They know the majority of their audience don't care about drama and only want to coom on sexy girls on their screen.
we love blumine here chud
>>1860536>last two redditors>first one is anti-loli>second one is husbando lover trannyLMAOOOOOOOO
>>1860528this
>>1860528Why? It's a good name. It fits her.
>>1860427>Azur PromiliaIs this for the same devs as Azur Lane? How's the gameplay? First time hearing about this gameAlso who the fuck is blumine and why is a big deal she's there?
>>1860558It's literally genshin clone with additional bloat
>>1860558>Is this for the same devs as Azur Lane?yes>How's the gameplay?watch videos>Also who the fuck is bluminethe blue haired girl from the OP. the name comes from genshinfags thinking she looks like the main character from their game.
>>1860554MLfags are bitter ex-hoyodrones so they hate any semblance that might remind them of their dark days.
Blumine
>tourists are upset nowgreat
>>1860563>>1860564I see so it has genshin gameplay? That's a shame
>>1860581This one's better.
Sex with Blumine
>>1860536>Some literal who's discord shit log and a twitter who post without engagement displaysBlumine haters truly are the first and loudest amplifiers of yuritroons>>1860516>Literaly shitpost copy pasted from /gay diarrhea general/Off to a good start with the tourist that don't care about the game at all.
>>1860609terara...
>>1860613>Implying the MLfag didn't make the yuritroon OP to poison the wellYou missed that.
>>1860617Yes seeing two girls in close proximity also makes me shit my pants
>>1860625mlbro...
Have they removed female MC yet?
Delete femc you assholes
Should have remove FMC and make her her own character.
This game will never fly as long as it has strong yuri vibes because of the femc.
>>1860662The developers aren't here
This is the genshin clone with pokemon gimmicks on top, right? I keep losing track of these upcoming open world nu-gacha.
>>1860662>>1860666>>1860667mlbro...

>>1860701>wuwaslop combatSigh...
>>1860701>wuwa kino combatlets go
>>1860701I hope they find the right balance between flashiness and actual combat controls.Being locked into multistep animations isn't the best of experience in action combat.
>>1860701This looks way too convoluted and doesn't suit Promilia at all, I would've rather have something like Genshin.Why are they copying wuwa? So fucking dumb.
>>1860427now this is my promilia
>>1860427
[sad news] AL fans HATE AP gameplay.
>>1860745They're talking about the new chibi mode.
>>1860748Do you think he cares about being honest?
I love SKK
>>1860745WE NEED FEMME SKK
>>1860750Probably just seeing the similarities, because of the farming and creatures.
>>1860753Richelieu...
Just spent 3500 dollars in the last two days so I could play this game. I believe in manjuu, they will fulfill all of our dreams.
>>1860427>Azur game>no botesWhat did they mean by this?
>>1860790Year 3 plot twist trust the plan.
>>1860790There's a rusted ship propeller decoration at the start of the tutorial of the game, trust the plan
>>1860790Azur means blue
>>1860701so instead of killing pokemon with gun like Palward, it's killing pokemon with sword hack n slash style

>>1860870Literally me.
Sex with Abby
>>1860891The quad tails make her looks too busy. They need to trim a pair.
>>1860914She won't attract genshin players if she's too bland and boring.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AzurPromilia/comments/1o25s7n/4gamers_jp_manjuu_interview_although_not_included/>Zhang Yekai (hereinafter Zhang):>While being recognized in Japan as "the company behind Azur Lane," in Azur Promilia, we have ventured into a new field of 3D open-world. Through this game, we aim to reach a wider range of users and establish a new position in the Japanese market.>Lin:>(laughs) We indeed aim to showcase a different direction from Azur Lane. Unlike 2D, in 3D, we can portray the charm of characters in various ways. While Azur Lane emphasizes sexiness, Azur Promilia focuses on cuteness and expressions that make players excited.Confirmed AP will not be a lewd game and will target a wider audience, unlike AL.
>>1861079yikes
>>1861079>Instantly filter the 1% mentally ill audienceGOOD
>>1861079And he lies the savior of lewd gachas
>>1861079>Unlike 2D, in 3D, we can portray the charm of characters in various ways.>focuses on cuteness and expressions that make players excitedThe devs are literally retarded, they're saying AP is better than AL just because it's 3D then they want to sell characters on their cuteness with... L2Ds instead of actual 3D animations. And from what they've shown the L2D tech isn't even groundbreaking it's got less interactions than BA or even their fucking previous game AL.Also they seem way overconfident about getting a new position in the jp market. The palworld genre isn't even that popular in JP (fyi Japan isn't even in Palworld's top 3 countries by players). If they're making a palworld clone to reach a wider range of users, their first and main market should always be CN since almost half of palworld's steam sales came from there.
>>1861079>NOOO WHY ISN'T THE GAME LITERALY PORNGood, so they can finally focus on the game
And the tourists expose xemselves.
>>1861144Says the anti-loli guy the biggest tourist of them all.
>>1861147Yeah I'm totally anti-loli lol
>>1861151You can't prove otherwise so yeah.
>>1861152You can't prove that you're not a troon so there's that.
>>1861154If liking loli makes me a troon then there's no doubt you have a low opinion on loli. Congratulations, you played yourself.
>>1861156>insist your opponent doesn't like something in order to win the argumentSmartest troon ITT.
>>1861157Feel free to prove otherwise, pro tip: you won't, you can't.
>>1861160You are replying to the andrew tate wannabe from last thread xis bluffing is all bark be glad blumine is already filtering xim from turning this into another snowflop
>>1861160You already admitted to being a troon btw.
>>1861162oh wowie zowie you uploaded the first Shinobu pic you saw on another tab? such an arduous and groundbreaking accomplishment to prove yourselfKEEEK
>>1861163>D-DOESN'T COUNT!!!LMAO!
How do you do my fellow lolicons? let me upload pic i'm now one of yours sirs, please accept me sirs
Troon tourists btfo.
You have to do something more than just upload the first pic you find in the archives. This getting sad. Here, you can close the tab in shame now.
>>1861171You first troon.
>>1861171>easy access from the sideAP missing big time
>>1861171>>1861183You two realize Manjuu is going to betray you first right? The lolis will end with Abby
Can't wait for pedotrannies to get rugpulled.They will have their release potatoes, maybe 1 or 2 more over the next months and then never again, kek
>>1861079>>1861126Why would anyone think this cute ass game is trying to be lewd in the first place.
>>1860914Made a quick edit.
>>1861442nta but i prefer the quadtails, still i would prefer an uncombed version, that would be pure sexo
>>1861442Middle is pure sexxoRight is just javelin
>>1861379Agreed, the CEO of Manjuu literally said they're going the cute and safe route with AP and the lewd and horny route with ALhttps://www.4gamer.net/games/784/G078487/20250928006/
>>1861126>they can finally focus on the gamedid you even read the interview, manjuu actually had and idea to make a gameplay more complex but the CEO and her staff is blocked it. anyway>one day in 2020, while casually pondering life, producer Yuwan had a sudden spark of inspirationso the dev say they can finally focus on turning the game into a genshin clone
>>1861247manjuu already betrayed them censoring Abby lmao
Where do I apply for tencent money? You guys don't do it for free right?
>everyone that I don't like is a tencentshillmindbroken
>>1861561I mean do you expect anything else from the people that goes ballistic if a company ever markets itself with cosplayers?
/r/hoyogaming are concerned that manjuu are going for an audience that already play games they think they want instead of committing to their already established audience.They're worried manjuu is just going to crank out a Genshin 2 to compete with hoyohttps://www.reddit.com/r/gachagaming/comments/1o26vxa/second_interview_today_for_azur_promilia/
wu
>>1861595Some trannies are right, tho.NEVER trust a CN dev to release things untouched. They could censor a lot of characters for the release.
>>1861597WON!!!
Saarrdeeps are really concerned that AP isn't putting nude onsen skins on day 1This is a betrayal to please cutetranny pedokeks instead!!!
Is this the promised yuri game?
>>1861702Yes.
>>1861595>thinking they're making the massive investment into a 3D open world game only to chase their existing audienceThankfully none of these redditors will ever run a business
>>1861561So, you actually obsess over these threads for free? lol
>>1861702No, Blumine is futa
>>1861780so true xis!
>>1861595Current designs are lewder than most Hoyo designs but tamer than AL and other coom gachaWhat'll happen is that if the game is a huge hit like Genshin, future characters will be tamer to capitalize that crowd, but if the game mostly attracts coomers, then future characters will be lewder instead to capitalize that crowd.
>>1861807I heard the same tale for star rail, zzz. The classic dilemma of pitching player against player. Game is not out and it is already like that girl who date multiple men to pick the one with most green in wallet
>>1861748>thinking they're making the massive investment into a 3D open world game only to chase their existing audience>Thankfully none of these redditors will ever run a businessSo you seriously just going to ignore LaDS is still gonna make way more bank than this game when it releases? Even Genshin or HSR (the producer literally admitted Genshin inspired AP) which are built for a wider audience still can't compete with something made just for its existing fanbase. So why can't redditorfags think manjuu's pouring all this money into a 3D open world game just to chase their existing fanservice audience? It works and there's living proof.
>>1861847What are you even talking about dude. LaDS wasn't an existing series.
>>1861850Infold was founded a decade ago and their whole deal was literally just making games for one specific type of player, the CEO even said it in an interview. They've been growing that same audience forever, never tried to widen their base and it's paid off for them.
>>1861860You are an incel.
>>1861860Nikki and LaDS appeal to different types of players even if they're both female
>>1861876>Nikki and LaDS appeal to different types of playersI wasn't even talking about Nikki, see pic
>>1861860What you are missing is that-sales charts mean absolutely nothing. All the major big games have multiple platforms they are on, and a webstore so sales are completely impossible to even remotely track. LaDS is an exception, ONLY a mobile version exists. You can't compare it with anything else.-Thinking that males and females look for the same things is very wrong.
>>1861882infold took a decade of lesser games attempts to come up with LADS, still it's not even the same market
>>1861941>took a decade of lesser games attempts to come up with LADS, still it's not even the same marketAnon Love and Deepspace is literally the spiritual sequel to Love and Producer it's the exact same market, they've been in this market for almost a decade now. LnP also pulls in a fuckton of money, we're talking hundreds of millions if memechart is legit and they poured that cash into making LaDS for their existing audience.manjuu though they went the other way. AL also made bank, hundreds of millions of dollars but instead of a spiritual sequel they cancelled that plan and used the money to build a game for a much wider audience instead.
>>1861126lol funny you say that
>>1861958xisters? our response?
>>1861954Not in the same market as the male market. And even i can tell the fans of that game are pissed at infold for ditching Love and Professor for LADS unless infold made a fuckton of expies into LADS
>>1861967 (Me)Now that i check Love and Producer* more that's a 2D game seemingly without any combat like LADS, so Infold actually did have to churn a new product for this. But there's barely any info on english for me to work with.Incredible that i have to research this gay shit to debate with this anon, he dived headfirst into Infold's track record btw
>people defending company that alienates players who played their first ever fking game and saved it from bankruptcyI hope you get paid to shill manjuu
>>1861993The only way i see AP alienating AL fans is by it not being a new Naval game other than that it's just a bunch of non-AL players screeching that AP isn't outright porn.
>>1861595Isn't 3d action game that is much more complex than any of mihoyo games by definition cannot target PNG collector available for phonefags only?They even admit they have to downgrade their game all the time and that they would probably introduce tiers of difficulty since in no reality a phonefag can play something like that?They cannot target their core audience because their core audience wouldn't even be able to play the game.The directors says himself, he is a gamer and wants to build an actual game. There will be lewd stuff, yes, but the core intent is to create a game? For gamers, it's not mihomo trannies and femcels since there are no males and no sign for any ship whatsoever, it's not incels that only every care about their insecurities and screech at every random thing. It's for normal players. Normal heterosexual males that likes games and tits, normal women too, the cute stuff is there for them to enjoy, since they probably wouldn't care about tits much.All what manjuu does is rational and stems from what kind of game they decided to create.They even raised age rating and buffed girls anatomy, because they realized it was too genshin like and some players would like more mature themes.
azur lane players arent going to jump to promilia its not aimed at themthey're getting their own 3d shit now
>>1861958Holy shit why is reddit more based than /vmg/ what the FUCK happened
>>1861993>a company must make the same game foreverDumb bitch
>>1861993Wasn't it being full of lolis enough to turn away 99% of azur lane players
>>1862148>full of loliswhere?
>>1862160/vmg/ told me this is a cunnygame did they like to me.......
>>1861958kek mlbro got destroyed here
>>1862165There is like 3 and a couple of potatoes for women.
Was going from blue Aether to blue Rover the right choice?
>>1862181Why are they copying wuwa instead of genshin. Isn't genshin more popular
Genshin is popular but not because of Fagther, so they could skip doing a MC like him
>>1862183Association with Genshin is toxic. Especially if your are all female gacha.
>>1862183Wuwa is Genshin but flashier, more (You) pandering and with a reputation that hasn't been ruined yet.Ananta's devs also changed the male MC from a Trailblazer clone to a Rover clone and apparently removed the female MC..
>>1862201>spoileroh nononono
>>1862202Yurisisters won
>>1862201>changed the hsr cloneHoly shit lmao is hoyo unironically toxic
>>1862202TL note: he's retarded and regurgitated what he read here
>>1862183Maybe it isn't.
>>1862202yurikeks BTFO
>>1862183Don't tell me you still believe the numbers on the meme chart...Genshin hasn't made a cultural impact since like 3.0, no one copies their design or makes fanart anymore, their last popular character was Nahida (and we all know what the devs did with that character). On the other hand like 7 games have copies Rover design already, that alone should tell you what devs consider popular among the players. Or do you honestly believe that you have better and more accurate information than the industry developers? They have inside info for what's more popular and what the players are engaging with more.Though I'll grant that not every dev cap properly copy or capture that.
>>1862280>"copying" the most generic design male design possibleWow Wuwabros we are such trendsetters
>>1862280>Genshin hasn't made a cultural impact since like 3.0, no one copies their design or makes fanart anymoreFurina is one of their most popular characters and gets a shit ton of fanart every week.It's worth mentioning that she was designed by a korean femcel.
>>1862280wuwa pixiv is full of ai slop THO
>>1862280Genshin had the heyday in mondstat-Inazuma in terms of design and then it moved in a strange way in Sumeru, with soulless and incomprehensible designs as hell... for example a belly dancer without a navel... after that they tried to copy popular formulas from popular subculture animes and games, they have taken a ton of GBF designs
>>1862280>their design or makes fanart anymorethey don't pay them anymore and when they pay for art, it's because it's a highly promoted character
>>1862284It is a tranny, it is popular among mihomo tranny core audience. It is not popular among people that other gachas aim to attract. AP has zero questionable gender characters, because it doesn't want to attract the mentally ill.
>>1862284Sorry she doesn't have alot of porn like raiden so no impact
>>1862294Handsome girl characters are popular with every fanbase though?
>>1862280>like 7 games have copies Jin-woo's design alreadyFixed. Creatively bankrupt chinks KNEEL to superior Korean characters.
>>1862301That character looks 93% like the MC of persona 5. So I guess that you mean that gooks kneel to superior Japanese characters.
>>1862297Trannies are not popular among straight peope. It's actually in the list of what to not add in a straight game. It's the shade of faggotry.
>>1862303persona 5 looks like a soiboy
>>1862308true
>>1862062>likes games and tits, normal women tooNormal women don't play "male gaze" female-only games.
>>1861967>people defending company that alienates players who played their first ever fking game and saved it from bankruptcymanjuu is literally following hoyoverse's footsteps to a T. hoyo was also almost broke Honkai Impact saved them and they spent all that money into Genshin to attract a wider audience.Not many gacha companies can be based like Paper though where they only go for one audience. Paper even banned tourists from trying to play their ML games.
>>1862306>women are trannies!Sorry about your mental illness
>>1862181I don't like the blatant copying of rover.And I don't like the difference in appearance age between mmc and fmc too much.
>>1862434Fat catlady feminazies are not normal women.
>>1862434Eh. As long as games don't go too hard, woman don't mind cute girls. It's the thing of why these mixed gacha even work, especially those with 80% females.Cute girls doing cute things isn't just a male exclusive domain either. It might not be too appealing for a 14 year old girl who just got used to her period and is still full of hormones telling her to get pregnant, but a bit older and it'll be fine. But it's not like 14 year old guys like that shit either. It's mainly for young adults and older. Yuru Camp is one of many examples where you definitely find a good bunch of female fans as well.
>>1863050>Yuru Camp is one of many examples where you definitely find a good bunch of female fans as well.>woman don't mind cute girlsYou know jackshit, Nikke ran a survey of 50.000 random people and it literally showed 95% of Yuru Camp fans are adult males averaging 40 (Statistically 50k samples is definitely enough to represent a whole country).CGDCT is always a genre for grown-ass adult males, always has been. Like take UmaMusu or Bocchi in the same survey, over four-fifths of those fans are men, women just don't like them.https://xtrend.nikkei.com/atcl/contents/18/00960/00001/
>>1863064Great news for Blumine.
>>1863064>women don't like cute thingsWhat is this retard smoking?
>>1863077>women don't like cute thingsI never said that you retard. Girls like cute things yeah but the majority of them sure as hell arent spending a fortune on other girls doing cute things, they want to experience cute things themselves. Nikkei survey even backs that up every single cgdct franchise is overwhelmingly male dominated in its fanbase, and the opposite is true too for cbdct they're overwhelmingly dominated by female fans. It's just how hormones work anon you can't fight it.Obvs I'm only talking about straight fans here, gay women like cgdct ofc but that's a super tiny part of the population not even worth bringing up unless you want to get into yuritrannies spending money on cgdct that's a whole other can of worms.
>>1863064>Nikke ran a surveyUh... anon.
>>1862201Ananta leaker says the male protagonist is a self-insert avatar for the producer.
Azur Promilia is confirmed to be ML. Lin revealed in her recent interview with 4gamers JP
>>1863231It's hilarious actually, in the last thread you could still see ALfags defending AP but they've been dead silent since the interview dropped revealing AP won't have sexiness like AL and will appeal to a wider audience.All the money ALfags spent into the game devs they just used it to chase a wider audience lmao
>>1863231>Azur Promilia is confirmed to be MLwhat did he say?

I sentence this game to the hoyofag and hoodweeb audience.
>>1863231SEX WITH LIN
>>1863277AP has lolisNormalfags can only infest this game once Manjew axes loli productionNow that sounds familiar...
>>1863277I wish they can add some degenerate scenes in first 30 minutes of gameplays to filter out unwanted players. Stop wasting time and get to point
>>1863315>degenerate scenesIt was already confirmed that the game won't have those, its all cutesy stuff so that the normalfag can feel safe.
>>1863380Just watch porn
>>1863064U got xim
this game will fund azur lane 2 where you can fondle 3d anime lolis to your heart content
Any brown botes
>>1863258>ALfags never cared for APIs this the new narrative? Cause manjuufags spent months defending the yellow chicken not just here but on reddit and discord too but now it turns out the devs never cared about catering to them at all in their next game.>>1863444>this game will fund azur lane 2 where you can fondle 3d anime lolis to your heart contentThey literally canned azur lane 2 just for this game
>>1863503>Cause [headcanon]AP doesn't cater to them, just ask /alg/>reddit>discordLMAO

>>1867574Yes it does.
>Game Daily: Did you expect creature-catching to solve the “empty world” problem?>Lin: We didn’t set out to make a big open-world game. We asked: in this world, what kind of ecosystem would these creatures have? How would they live naturally, like NPCs? We focused on making the content internally consistent and fun. Players will see related side quests and systems later.>Game Daily: The character designs seem less “provocative” than Azur Lane. Is that intentional?>Lin: We maintain high art standards, but also bring in new styles unique to Blue Star Voyage. Many characters haven’t been revealed yet. We’ve got a wide variety—there’s definitely one you’ll fall for.>Game Daily: Is this a time-intensive game or more casual?>Lin: Both. If players have time, we offer plenty to do. If not, we provide ways to meet goals efficiently. We aim to offer “a playstyle for everyone.”>Game Daily: Is Blue Star Voyage your new flagship or just one of many titles?>Lin: We want to perfect what we’re good at before branching out. If you try to do everything, you risk mediocrity. We aim for refinement.

>muh AL 2only retards that don't play AL think this
>you don't play it!!!You were already BTFO btw
>y-you w-were b-b-blol yeah sure stupid secondary, go back to your dramatranny general
>>1867783>chose to make something profitable instead of two guaranteed flopsYeah it's a good thing you're not running a business
>>1867784True. Go play Crosswave if you want to see what playing "AL2" would be like, and there are already plenty of 3D Kancolle clones that flopped. The genre just doesn’t translate well. Plus, you would have low chance of seeing your waifus again anyway, since 3D games have way higher production costs compared to PNG collectors like GFL2 case. Only idiots who never played the game or trolls keep bringing up this argument.
>>1867809>Plus, you would have low chance of seeing your waifus again anyway, since 3D games have way higher productionTo be fair this is also Manjuu's fault for bloating AL of so many characters, they are good at character design but if most of the designs are just going to be forgotten PNGs then better to not show them to the public. The same reason why Manjuu stopped artists from showing character concept sheets lmao
>>1867786you lost troon
>>1867809Crosswave is absolute slop because it was made by the slop experts of Idea Factory and Compile Heart.A more competent dev maybe could've made something a little bit better.
>>1867840Sure, but it still would have some of the problems mentioned.
>>1867810>it's AL's fault it didn't eos in a few yearsRetardbro, gacha is just a quick cashgrab model, it was never meant to last. Games like AL or FGO are rare exceptions, thousands other PNG collectors are dying in first few months, years if they are fortunate enough. They never had any reasons to care about inevitable character clogging the game.AP simply needs to abolish gacha completely and focus on a smaller cast of characters if they plan to live for 5 or more years, otherwise they'll die the same way mihoyo games die. People don't switch to newer characters when their favorites are powercrept and forgotten, they simply lose interest in the game itself.
>>1867883>die the same way mihoyo games dieby making millions? They'd sure love that.
>>1867889Sure, but they can't anymore. Because their belowed characters are dead due to gacha monetization. Who cares how popular was Raiden and Acheron if they are dead weight. It's not working third time for them either, ZZZ flopped the moment they started ramping their powercreep, people simply left.You are not going to earn more money by sidelining characters that made you games big in the first place. Mihoyo earns less money now when they was earning 4 years ago, yes, in nominal numbers, meaning in reality they earn only half when inflation adjusted.
>>1867899Despite all that, they still make mad dosh somehow. Apparently, not enough people left yet.
>>1867909real competitors havent even shown up yet and mhy revenue already tanked a lot while cost keeps going up, next year is gonna be fun for them
>unironic Hoyoshills ITTgrim
>>1868204>>1868266why are you so mad that hoyo is still alive in being able to keep their games afloat despite losing the competition? don't you have a better time playing those upcoming games instead?
>>1868310people are laughing at hoyo while the shills desperately try to defend it
>>1861079DOA
>>1861079>a wider audienceYou mean the people who already said they wont touch this game if do not make tall bishe men playable?
>>1861079Lmao, so much for the savior of ML

>>1869063That's not what the male MC looks like
>make a r16 gacha>cant get laidmy god this game is more child friendly than zelda, you want wide audience? make the next tetris or angry bird. the hypocrisy of being r16 by showing panties I swear
>>1869125just play porn games if you are like this
>>1869125It's r16 because the public is more sensitive to anime lewds compared to real ones

https://www.reddit.com/r/AzurPromilia/comments/1oe2he6/i_hope_all_the_characters_are_wife_like_to_the_mc/A lot of manjuu fans are complaining about the lack of romance in AP because of a certain factor.
Why are you on reddit, pagtroon?
AP is /reddit/core
Yuri promilia!
Dead thread for dead game
>>1867899>AcheronNo one wants that bitch.
>>1873218Dead...
this could be brover and blumine...
>>1873218So much wasted hype, those first threads were incredible. I know it only happened because of how slow the board was but seeing the threads get to 3000+ replies was so cool.
Game is slowly becoming refuge for player disappointed with genshin, wuwa, tower of fantasy, duel night abyss and more. They will have unrealistic expectation and be nearly impossible to please. Shit is sad
NEWS DOKOI WANT A RELEASE
no one's want to post here because paggies will start bitching about blumine on repeat
[sad news] The AP sub is defending the ML fanservice and also just straight up calling yuriturds toxic saying female MCs would ruin the gamehttps://www.reddit.com/r/AzurPromilia/comments/1ognaha/the_cyrene_situation_makes_me_happy_that_manjuu/
kek @ mlturdies trying to gain support on leddit again
xisters are already fearing an invasion kekaroo
Isn't it kind of odd that there's like zero global/english marketing? There's been no official trailers from what I can tell, they have no real social media like YouTube or X either, and the website hasn't changed at all since it was first made. Surely manjuu won't be silly enough to release the game in CN first and have a EN release come out later? That shit was so annoying for GF2 and killed the game for me.
>>1873804yes CN and JP will have early releaseENcucks need to wait as usual
This is a ML game.
>>1874096
New trailer https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1HPs1zyEQF/
>>1873804good. having no globalcuck presence will be a sign that the game will be good.
>>1874096Lol AP is probably designed with the Femc in mind. Kinda like what happened with Stella Flop. There's a reason they havent shown the first iteration of the MMC: they probably didnt have a model for him.This is a yurige disguised as a harem game.
>>1874850>disguisedThey're not hiding the fact that they're going for the general audience >>1861475Though of course they refrain from calling genshin impact as their number one inspiration.
■Worldview of Azure PromiliaA vast continent called Promilia, rich in diverse natural environments, civilizations, magic, and unique ecosystems. In this distant land, fantastical creatures known as Kibo inhabit it, coexisting with human races.
>>1874865>Though of course they refrain from calling genshin impact as their number one inspiration.They literally named Genshin Impact their number one inspiration in a recent interview, they said back in 2020 they instantly got a "spark" to make this game, wonder what spark that was... And that's also the main reason they're going after the general audience instead of just growing their existing loyal playerbase.
Now that stella sora and DNA mega flopped, and CZN bent the knee to ML, do you guys recon promilia is actually going to have pandering, or just platonic stuff on the level of blue archive? I can't see the game being successful with just the light pandering we have seen on the beta since its just a couple of live2D per character, but I also don't think they can go too hard on it since it has a female MC and the devs already stated they want to go with the cute route.With each new game releasing and instantly flopping, and so many games EOSing lately I just can't see the game succeeding...
>>1877501>has a female MCit has both MCs, you don't have to choose.
Are there really no news....
>>1877505They already stated that they won't. The soulful female CEO is going to keep working on azur lane, meanwhile the other fucker is doing promilia, so the game is more or less guaranteed to fail, prepare to see GFL2 numbers after the first couple of months.
>>1862283>>1862301Kanie is just perfect not his fault for making everyone copy him
>>1862301>>1877728Onii-sama the OG.
>>1877505Maybe after you take your meds dear.
>>1877505>>1877518Ah yes that's worked out so well for czn etc. What's with you mentally ill fuckers anyway? Letting SEA post here was a mistake.
>>1879328Removing femmc is the least of czn's problems. if you're bringing up czn to counter them you're a retard.
>>1879422>Removing femmc is the least of czn's problemsImplying you wouldn't say the same thing about promilia when your jeetphone can't run it kek
>>1879422>czn removed femc but still kept the other male charactersliterally the dumbest shit they've done like what even is the point of that?
so they still have no plan to look for a new publisher because no way they can do everything
>>1877736damn nigga, i miss shitposting with /a/nons...
Playing as Blumine doing badass shit in the story will be cool.
>>1877505Stella Sora flopped really hard.
>>1880384>Stella Sora/u/xisters been all quiet ever since it flopped. It was so bad that i've seen them siding with CZN simply because it has "own the chuds" moment.
>>1880446>>it has "own the chuds" momentdidn't chuds rape smilegate though
>stella sora is the new scapegoat nowtime to invest for an easy x100 again
>>1880384Mmc might as well not exist with how 99% of the playerbase pick female
>>1880679It's no wonder their game is flopping when it's filled with broke turd worlders.
>>1880682>turd worlders>its literally japan carrying most of the revenueyeah no seapagjeets were never relevant when it comes to keeping the games alive
Every day I check this thread hoping for anything besides the two anons pretending to fight over blumine. Some day i have hope something will happen.
>>1880740>bluminejust go back to your hoyo general on /vg/or just start spamming like a third worlder
>>1880446>it's /u/ because the female character is more popularMight as well call Dark Souls yuri
>>1880791>just because the female character is more popularYou don't have to defend /u/ flopped games.The director went with the female MC.There are instances where the Sword lady (first limited character) calls the MC "My Lady" in lines by accident or something.Hell even the latest Event PV used the FEMC.the MC is called “small” by the other characters at one point, whether you are playing with the male or female MC, which makes no sense for the male MC because he is taller than the other characters, only the female MC is smaller.At one point in the story, you hide in a suitcase, which makes no sense is you play with MMC given the size of the Male MC.
>>1880804@grok translate this schizobabble
>>1880805this nigga >>1880804 be retarded
holy mental illness imagine being this obsessed with a fictional male self insert
Creating yuri ML paradise with blumine!
>>1880758Kill yourself fat retard, you're the faggots who came up with the name in the first place. I've never played your favorite degenerate game, sorry you fell out of love. I'm sure you'll find it again someday.
>>1860427A: does the game have cute lolis?B: are there any other males in the game?
https://plat-cdn.manjuu.com/platform/P3OfficialWebsite/prod/1217f40306321eb3894b320ab9b1dbd2_en.mp4Yoooo, this shit fucking sucks lmaoAll the girls looks boring and uninspired, and the world looks like every boring ass fantasy world that's come out of Asia in the past decade.How the fuck do you even have tons of experience and free reign over making a game and just fail at making likable fictional characters.they should've just made a 3D Azur Lane and called it Azur Lane 3D
>>1880903This but unironically.
>>1880903>looks like every boring ass fantasy worldSuch as? AP seems like the only game in it the market that can provide me the comfy fantasy adventure experience ever since genshit before it delved into faggotry and having an identity crisis
>>1880907Genshit could've been good if they just removed all but 1 male (whom you play as)
Yeah so uh, basically what I need is for one of these big Chinese companies is to transport me into one of these worlds and then I get to find a cute virgin wife and just kill monsters n stuff idk.
>>1880909just use your going into games machine
>>1880903Well to be fair, Manjuu always has been shit at making 'a game', they just know how to draw cute girls, i already can expect AP being full of game breaking bugs on release
>>1880903>they should've just made a 3D Azur Lane and called it Azur Lane 3DI think the problem is that the IP rights of Azur Lane are shared between Manjuu and Yongshi, so making AL2 would require Yongshi and Manjuu to work together again.But it's clear that each studio wants to make their own game without depending on eachother.so even if Manjuu wanted to, they couldn't make an AL2 if they didn't involve Yongshi.
>>1880903Look at GFL2. You would actually have to be a retard to think 3D AL would be a good idea. Until AI becomes so advanced creating model and animation for a character cost almost as little as drawing 2d sprite today it will flop
>>1880997It'd be funny if AP ends up like Yongshi's other project.
>>1881026You do know that animating a live 2D takes more time than doing a 3D model and doing its animations right?
>>1881052Nah there's actual interest in AP compared to Aether Gazer which only the CN waifufags cared about...until they showed the males.
>>1881059With how stella sora and aether gazer turned out we can safely assume that the only non-faggot part of Azur Lane was Manjuu.
>>1881071nah, they were all faggots
How to make a successful game like this>step 1: make some cute and likable girls>step 2: don't add any other males besides the lead MCThat's literally it
>waifufagsWhat's the point in playing these games if not to go on adventures with your cartoon wife?
>>1880897There are male NPCsSo basically the game is unplayable because every Chinese company has no choice but to somehow soft-introduce NTR at some point once you're invested in the game because for some reason Asian people can't exist without adding voicelines or hidden text about how their girls may or may have not sucked buff cowman cock.
>>1881071>>1881096I mean, they originally wanted to put male units in the game, and only had the female MC in the game, so who is to say.Also, is not like promilia has any kind of romance either, its purely platonic.
>>1881112>its purely platonic.That's a good thing though. Chinese attempts at romance are always cringe inducing. If I want to read some slop I can run AI.
>>1881122If I want to read platonic shit might as well play blue archive, whats the point of promilia existing?
>>1881155For me to play the game? It's not like it could get any 18+ content with lolis as playable characters to begin with. It's illegal.
>>1881155>whats the point of promilia existing?Good question. I never played Princess Connect, but the anime is basically how I think this thing should play out.Male MC, gets some girls, go on adventures and stuff.
>>1880888perfect, glad we are on the same boat with that then.
>>1881155For us yuri enjoyers. MLhomos need not apply.
>>1881189Can't you play stella sora instead?
>>1881155How about the fact that it's a game and not your substitute for female attention
>>1881248It's precisely because its a game, that I want it to cater to my tastes so I can have a good time playing it.
>>1881266you are incel
>>1881276Ahhh, you are one of those people that likes nikke because it has "nuanced" females, I see. I can only hope promilia doesn't go that way.
>>1881195But then MLhomos will claim this game? We can't have that.
>>1881248These games should be made as a substitute for female attention.All anime and media should be.
>>1881109It's just normalfag tourists whose only experience being mihoyo games starting with genshin impact. They don't even know what mihoyo made before it and the history of mihoyo used to make extremely lewd games. They just want to normalfag around and impose their cultural imperialist puritanical values on everyone else instead of assimilating into the new culture. They are a cancer on the earth but sadly they outnumber the rest of us a thousand to one so eventually all communities except for the most esoteric fall.
>>1881161>It's illegalIt isn't illegal, you just can't sell your game on big platforms and would have to self publish and most companies aren't willing to put in the effort.
>>1881301Erm sestirs this is not what WE have been (taught) call in emergency backup
If I want gameplay I can just play real games. If I want a good story I can just read a book.
just watch porn incels
>>1881310And if you want cute girls you can play a VN
>>1881305Mihoyo gave in and the supposed "gatekeepers" were twiddling their thumbs instead of installing the Minecraft firearm mod. You did this to yourself.
>>1881316But a VN has what, half a dozen romanceable females? They don't release new ones twice per month like gacha games do.
>>1881325And those VN girls all have 100x the amount of dialogue mass produced gacha sluts get.This shit take is indefensible, just admit you don't give a fuck about the girls and only want a MC wank Sung Jin Woo simulator so all the actual weebs who think AP is perfect as is can tell you to fuck off and read some ching chong web novel.
>>1881336I do want a powerfantasy, if I wanted a serious story I would be reading an actual book, which I do regularly.
>>1881339Go and read/play a power fantasy then cause this isn't it.This is a comfy jap-inspired farm game SoL where cute girls are the main focus. If you want your epic Kirito man to act aggressively chinese while hogging all the screentime go elsewhere, it's as simple as that.Wasn't made for you, you're the tourist here etc.
>>1881316VN is trash though. There's a reason why they're a dying genre.
>>1881339You'll fit in here then. This will be the power fantasy story that you want because manjuu is only listening to their CN audience.
>>1881355>appeal to popularityEnjoy your MOBAs and hoyoslop then
>>1881357Enjoy your vn then- Oh wait, there's no more notable VN released anymore, lol.
>>1881359kek. got'xim
>>1881359Epic self own bro. Let me remind you that you're currently stalking a thread for a non-ML game whose dev explicitly told you to fuck off, yet you're still here because there's no notable ML releases anymore.lollmao
>>1881363>there's no notable ML releases anymore.If you're retard, then yes.
>>1881305>It's just normalfag tourists whose only experience being mihoyo games starting with genshin impact.Look I know people won't like this reply but manjuu has said over and over that GI is what inspired them for AP.
/gdg/ is awfully quite today huh
>>1881305fug
>>1881425>GI is what inspired them for AP.and so is every other open world gacha. the problem with GI isnt even openworld but that its full of hoyo faggotry which is why its future competitors will overshadow it in time
>>1881426We returm to our roots
How is it going xisters?
>>1881569Coping and gaslighting myself that the game will be a success.
>>1881508Didn't work for Wuthering Waves, which is why they started to try and emulate Genshin more and more with events (forced multiplayer minigame shit), while also casualizing exploration to the point it's way worse than in Genshin.It should not be hard to beat Genshin, but somehow Wuwa managed to not do it.
>>1881107who is this sex pest?
>>1881669Oshikake Sun Shower Ch. 1-3
>>1881657I don't think wuwa has had a multiplayer game mode in 8 months, but the other points are correct. There hasn't been a combat event in 4 versions, the current events in this patch are:>A "parkour" event that gets you max rewards without touching the controller>A vampire survivors clone in which the most efficient strategy is to build an AFK build>A photo mode (pretty cool, you can slow down time to look at your characters ass, but zero gameplay)The cope is that they have been phoning in shit because they moved their office to a bigger building, and are putting all the eggs into 3.0, but we'll see. They also used a new writer for the finale of 2.X, which by all accounts seems to be an ex mihoyo writer by their style, which doesn't inspire much confidence for the future.
>>1860427>yuritroon panderingyike>>1860701>press X to awesome """gameplay"""double yike
>>1881719I dropped the game in 2.1, so them not repeating that extremely unfun "btw, tall chars run faster and we ain't fixing this tehe" multiplayer event, that's good.Unfortunately they ruined a lot more of the game, including the before 2.1 actually fun roguelite.
>>1862280>Genshin>no one [...] makes fanart anymoreI hate genshit but this is factually not true.
>>1881359One of the most notable and organically popular VNs of the decade just released earlier this year.
>>1881761What's it's name?Also>organically popularHasn't existed since like 2016
>>1862181OG wasn't "blue aether" at all.Aether's design is a legit abomination. Weird aladdin pants and a crop top with the long girly braided hair and earring.OG boy MC was kind of a generic JRPG knight in training kind of vibe. The new one just looks like a K-POP guy that got lost. But there's going to be MC customization so literally who gives a shit anymore.I think it was a mistake to move away from a look that was tonally consistent with everything else in the game for the budget version of a competing game. But if he's there to appeal to an audience that needs to be reassured they play a "cool" character and the classic JRPG tropes are not good for them I guess the change serves a purpose.In the end this main design only exists for promotional material.
>>1881818>there's going to be MC customization so literally who gives a shit anymore.source: trust me broThey haven't said anything about how much customization there is, like if you can even swap out the main character's K-POP hairstyle or dye it. So you're still stuck with a Blue Rover trying to cosplay.
>>1881761Uh manosba? Still has practically no fanart or mass community interaction. And recently localized shit doesnt count, whatever that is. If youre thinking of hundred line thats also more of a game than pure vn thats not even as popular as its predecessors
>>1881818MC's should look like this
>>1881841It has a shit ton of fanart, what the fuck are you talking about.
>>1881761like what, nekopara?
>>1881933manosaba, a death game for yurifags (lmao). that's how low the expectation for vn releases are these days

>>1882014fossil cope, just ignore him
>killed Azur Promiliahttps://unity.com/products/pricing-updates
>>1882987no....
>>1882014as opposed to all the other untranslated gacha with their own generals?
Game will unironically die unless they release it soon, its taking way too long and the hype is now gone
>>1882014You seem confused, you're on 4chan not a site for EOPs.
>>1883043There's no new upcoming big gacha in the horizon, though.
>>1883172>what is Endfield
>>1883043I'm less worried about the novelty wearing off but more about how broken release will be, Manjuu is not known for engineering games since AL's back end is managed by Yongshi.It will be a disaster, they will probably give a lot of freebies tho
>>1883043you say this as if the current gacha climate isnt saturated already and theres still a ton of anticipated ones that still hasnt been released yet with undetermined dates even.
>>1883212Get a load of this practical joker.
>>1883689Endfield will literally crush any competitions and top the charts once it releases. You can screencap this post.
Which direction will manjuu go for this game, AntipedoLane or safehorny Genshit?
>>1886771Both
CBT when???
>>1886771Start with safehorny Genshit(it's actually WuWa tier), then end with AntipedoLane.

Funniest shit seeing ALniggers on reddit piss their pants at the game being too fanservicey, nigger what are you talking about the game has always been about fanservice, I've played that shit daily from late 2018-2022 before quitting it from operation grind mindbreaking me and manjuu turning into manjew that never gives any gems anymore unlike before where they gave them even for fucking 30 min longer maintenance extensions, but the game was always lowbrow cookie clicker that you grinded in the background while watching videos, shitpostan, or reading manga and only purpose was to bait you to spend money on skins for your favorite shitfu with no personality or lore once in a while. Only good thing about lolitards is that they're like feet tards, cucktards, furrytards and other subhumans, they scare the hoes and they don't shit up the game with moralfaggotry or "oh my science how can her back hold those massive fat fucking hangers she'll die or something men drawing women hello chuds'!??!?!?!?!"

>>1890368that's why they keep camping mixed toilet generals and secretly play those games
>>1890370I don't get this "Stella Sora is yuri" meme
>>1860427man I sincerely forgot about this gamehope global CBT soon is true
>>1890404>I don't get this "Stella Sora is yuri" meme>>1880804
>>1890410>female MC favoritism = yuriYou can't be serious. Magia Exedra and HBR are the only recent gacha games that contain yuri themes. Nothing since then has launched to be even remotely considered as yuri.
>>1890414Don't try to reason with xim
>>1890368>im tired of pretending that they are superiorLmao are you ok foid? Is there a reason you were pretending in the first place?
>>1890406It needs more time to cook imo
>>1890414>what is yuribaiting
>>1890529Not present in Stella Sora.
>>1890370Pretty good actually
Manjuu should just buy Azur Lane's rights from Yongshi and make a Azur Lane 2. Nobody cares about Azur Promilia.
>>1890648>Nobody cares about Azur Promilia>he says this in a thread dedicated to Azur PromiliaThe irony here is on another level.
>>1890659No irony in that post.
>>1890659the fact that he didnt know AL2 already exists should tell you something
>>1890648>Nobody cares about Azur Promilia.Incels aren't people.
>>1890819Neither are foids and xisters.
>>1890924Almost as if the "foids" and "xisters" you hate have wallets too (and have better tastes), keep copingGacha games can mog sales when they have more going for them than an harem simulator
>>1891002Sure thing sis
>>1891002kek you got xim
>>1891002but their wallet goes to LADS which is a harem simulator, would they be willing to open their wallet for AP to keep it alive while incels play it for free?
are they even gonna announce anything this year?
>>1891299>incels play it for freethat only applies to brown seapags
>1891002Nice fanbase you got there APkeks.
>>1891027You got xhim
>>1891373Not happening. At this rate, Endfield is more likely to come out first and will kill all the hype that AP might still have.It's gonna be another Stella Sora disaster if Manju continue to be massive retards.
>>1890029grim, grimace even
>>1891373I think it'll probably be a late 2026 or a early 2027 release. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy playing other vidya until AP arrives. Now's not a good time for a release either, every game that comes out flops instantly, people have gacha fatigue, everyone got exhausted from grinding compulsively and obsessively meme omnipandering mixed toilet gachas for years and the hype is gone, it's better to wait for a year for people to quit most other gacha and then start feeling nostalgia for gacha again and get into AP kino.
>>1892649That's just pure copium. Now's actually the best time for them to release it, people aren't even burned out on open world games yet since the last big one wuwa released like over a year ago. When the AP trailer first released their concept felt genuinely novel and fresh, other devs hadn't even started making Palworld clones yet, fast forward to today and there's already like 4 different anime Palworld knockoffs coming out soon.If manjuu waits till your timeline we're looking at maybe 5 openworld gachas already out plus another 5 mobile OW games releasing simultaneously. You'll have big anime franchises like HoK or DFO out, not to mention non-anime titans like gta which will just gobble up a massive chunk of the western audience. Literally every dev is rushing their game out ASAP to grab market share before the competition because the market size stays the same so the competition is fucking fierce. The other anon is spot on Endfield is more likely to release first and that will kill any hype AP might still have. Saying they should delay it as long as possible is total fucking nonsense.Also who the hell feels "nostalgia" for swapslop gameplay? 90% of the arpg gachas are just the same old Q-E swapslop shit with a slightly different coat of paint.
>>1892678Literally every big release gacha in the past year or two has flopped except for Mihoyo + Wuthering Waves. There's no space for more gacha, definitely not for omnipandering slop. Endfield will also flop. Everyone has gacha fatigue, social media numbers are down, revenue numbers are stagnating, it feels like it's time to move on from the genre overall, but maybe there's hope if the saturation slows down. Imo any omnipandering 3d gacha that coems out in next five years is a guaranteed DOA flop, AP will be a mainstreamflop too but it can be the face of waifu/harem/romance gacha if they're smart, if not the yellow chicken must accept bankrupting
How is it going Promiliaxisters?
>>1892896losing hope at increasing rate...
>>1892898no...
>>1892704I don't think AKE will flop. It has a massive Arknights playerbase to get from, so even if a small percentage goes to it, it will be enough. CN won't let Endfield flop.And add whatever players from the other gachas will also play it.Also, it's made on Unity so probably could have better optimization and be more accesible to the poor gachafags that don't have strong rigs/phones, compared to Wuwa for example.
>>1892919the game was lagging in the gameplay trailer bwo
AP just needs to learn from WWM and allows combat with high level of difficulty
>>1893256>AP just needs to learn from WWM and allows combat with high level of difficultyNever gonna happen. Did you forget the recent interview where the gameplay dev wanted to make it more fun and add more variety? The ceo shut it down because they just want to cater to the baby general audience.
>>1893319exactly, fishball himself wants hard mode so just put story/legend difficulty in the game so both sides can enjoy whatever they want
They should just make it a Koikatsu clone since the gameplay isn't gonna be good anyway.
we already have snowbroke for that shit
>snow mention out of nowherekek
>>1893319If I wanted to play baby games I'd just stick to the average AAA game. That attitude brings nothing to the table.
https://x.com/kyu0817a/status/1994372886296207601?s=20>Bandai Namco Fest 2025 in Shanghai, mid-song performance, was forced to be stopped by government orders that "all performances by Japanese artists are banned" and the performer was then escorted out by staff... This feels like the end of all overseas events in the Chinese-speaking worldAzur Promilia will never have a Japanese voice.
>>1893534chinese voice acting is superior anyway
>>1893536You know as well as I do that most people who play these types of games won't settle for CN or EN tranny voice actors.
>>1893536Said nobody ever
They don't record the voice work in China retardbros

its soon 2026 and there's zero news, game will never come out
>>1896461It's just pure bad news on the industry over and over, can you blame them
>>1896461I gave up and am going to put my eggs into endfields basket. Sure it's censored trash but at least the animations look nice and I can trust the company knows how to make content.
>>1897413>it's censoredIn what way?
>>1897426In the way that Arknights is censored in everyone mostly being covered up in general. In endfield it's even worse with most characters not showing an inch of skin below the jawline. At least they won't have to make the characters turn invisible if you move the camera down because there is nothing to hide.
>>1897428What?
>>1897413>trust the company knows how to make contentI don't know how to tell you this anon... you better go ask the arknights general how they like all the new wonderful gamemodes the company definitely keeps releasing
>>1897435Exceptions make the rule, pants and shorts and full on bodysuits are 99% of the designs. Don't play dumb, look at arknights/endfield design and compare it to almost any other 3d game and the difference is instantly noticeable.
>>1897435From left to right:>has a double bra because god forbid you can see cleavage>LITERALLY covered up from head to toe>has the shorts of safety, can't even bother with spats, let alone actual panties
>>1897436IS and the multiplayer events have been a huge hit though.
>>1897439Reminds me of watching Full House back in the day and one of the girls showing off her shoulders was considered highly risqué. That is the puritanism we are reverting to.
>>1897438>pants and shorts and full on bodysuits are 99% of the designLiterally false.>>1897439How is design choice censorship?
>pretending not to understand the argument so discussion is impossibleYawn, here is your last (You), don't spend it all in one place.
>>1897445Retard.
>>1897444I guess it isn't, because arknights has ALWAYS been for females and fags. The one time they tried to release a character in a bikini the backlash was so big they had to censor the character. But yeah there are zero sexy characters in endfield
>>1897413>FeMCThankfully we won't have that so i couldn't care less.
>>1897473maximum copage blumine is canon mc and that isn't going to change
>>1897476Damn...so we're no better than eosfield...
snowGODS won
>>1897435yikes!
female MC has to go or the game fails
>>1897435Grim as fuck
>>1897444>How is design choice censorship?You literally need to go back and check their old designs from the technical test. The current roster got censored not just once, but twice (2) already. I know this because I posted the comparison pic in the drama thread months ago but I can't find the screenshot now.FYI the pink girl's original design was literally pantless.
Any game with femc brings in most obnoxious loud minority of trannies, unironically all of you subhumans would be beheaded if i could, but for now i will just play blind instead sharing a threat with some pajeet subhumans.
>>1898533>Any game without femcFTFY
>>1898544Thanks for proving my point retarded yurinigger
>>1897435anon you are in a azur thread unless the girl its nude its censored
>Wuwa 3.0>constant AK Endfield news>Ananta>other open world anime announcementsWhat's wrong with this company? At this rate they'll be left behind.
>>1898533but you started sperging about femc unprompted tho?
>>1897435>Can't even show a cleavageYou just proved his point. Even WuWa isn't this prude.
>>1898317>pantlessYeah, we can literally see where they added textures to cover her legs. Her small short isn't even the same texture as them.
>>1898533>instead sharing a threatThe jokes write themselves
>>1898561yuriGODS run this thread, retard
>>1898820>Even thighs is not allowedGrim
>>1897435Tummychads eating good.
Where are the news?
>>1899022lole
i dont think Manjuu have enough people to even have cbt2 until quarter 3-4 2026 since new graduates only learned Unreal slop
>>1899097Are they using their own proprietary engine? The game should've come out at the beginning of this year if it wanted to ride the hype imo.
>>1900977Manjuu is extremely new to that kind of development, since they are more of art and design guy than a codemonkey. I think they were piggybacking on Idea Factory back when Azur Promilia was first trademarked around 2022 and rumors about AL2 were circulating.
>>1899097Unity is way more popular in the east than Unreal.
>>1901287Look at all the new gachas that are using UE5
>>1899097This is the likely reason why they're releasing it this late(if it's release at all). For live-service game, you need constant update and if you can't provide it, players will likely leave. Honestly with their company, it's just better to make single purchase game.
>>1901427It'd be funny tee bee eich
