imagine a four disc game with each disc sold separately
>>
Imagine a game costing 60+ dollary-doos that had content cut and sold as extras.
>>
>>12048056
Weebs are some of the easiest marks to grift. These days they’ll spend thousands to open loot boxes to play dress up with their digital waifus.
>>
It was widely regarded as a scam, even by vidya magazines.
>>
>>12048124
how so? how long is each games playthrough? 5 hours?
>>
>>12048056
Wasn't that bad. The games were decent lengths and came with some anime.
>>
>>12048126
I think it was around 15/20h per game but it was mostly cheap quests meant to fill the disc while the story itself could have fitted a single game.
>>
How come mind was lost? But erection is tooo groooww
>>
>>12048147
yes exactly. Just about all the game content exists in each game disc. The cutscenes are very brief in every game. G.U. went the opposite way and loaded it with stupid amounts of yapping.
>>
>>12048128
Buying the games was the only way you could get those OVAs officially in America. As far as I know they've never been on any streaming service either
>>
>>12048073
Even worse they never finished all the cut content either. MGSV:TPP and FFXV
>>
>>12048056
And now Quarantine is worth hundreds of dollars because no one bought it.
>>
The first game is the only one that feels like effort was put into it. The other three are just mindlessly wandering around until the next major boss feels like showing up.

The worst part is that the game has a huge roster of like 20-30 party members, but nearly every important dungeon forces Black Rose on your team. So you only usually have one open party slot, which almost needs to go to a Wave Master because EVERY other class in the game is a redundant physical class. So your party for 99% of the game is Kite, Black Rose, and whichever of the three Wave Master hasn't been written out of the story at the moment (usually Wiseman). Why are the other 17 party members even there? Did nobody making this game stop to think about what they were doing?

4 DVDs. it's not a 4-disc PS1 game on CDs.
>>
>>12048372
This shit applies to every jarpig
>>
>>12048391
A 4-disc PS1 game with each compact disc sold separately would also be bad.
>>
>>12048056
It was a 1 disc game split into 4.
>>
>>12048484
true, not only the you just push buttons for combat, but you just walk the rest of the time. but to be fair, its the same thing for carpig.
>>
>>12048105
That's all modern gaming though. Weebs don't exist any longer.
>>
>>12048391
And that's not what happened.
>>
>>12048073
So the modern age?
>>
>>12048056
>anime dvd included
they just mean the game disc, right?
>>
It's easy if you try

Can't be worse than planning another Star Wars-style hexology but get tampered and cut short in the end due to corporate incompetence.
>>
>>12048384
A based one too, unlike shitass Monster Hunter
>>
>>12048310
You're going to attract that one faggot and his schizo adversary to /vr/
Do NOT bring it up again.

>>12048372
I got so bored I quit the first game by the second dungeon. I only had a dialup internet connection back then so the idea of a single player game that simulated an mmo was intriguing because I knew it’d be a long time before I actually got to play one and I was dying to know what it was all about.

Fast forward several years later and I actually try a real mmo for the first time and realize .hack was actually pretty accurate and mmo’s are just boring as fuck.
>>
Are the other games as shity as the original?
It was basically a bad dollar store FFXII.
Does it end on a cliffhanger?
I think I read somewhere the protag of it shows up but evil.
>>
>>12049641
Good, the Xeno series was always shit starting with the first one
>>
>>12049641
I want to plap Kos Mos and Tellos.
>>
>>12049641
It's worse, for sure.
Xenosaga is a problem of ambition and ability, while .hack is a product of greed and calculated merchandising.
>>
>>12048056
I fucking loved hack back in the day.
>>
>>12048056
>>12048073
FF13 pretty much had most of the fucking game cut out so they could sell it as "sequels."

>>12048310
>Let's fire this Kojima guy before he finishes the game! It'll be cool! Won't be a problem!"
>>
>>12050227
Xeno was always good, you're just a faggot that played the terrible Nintendo sequels
>>
>>12048073
Each of these four is quite a bit more than $60 if you want both case and dvd. Maybe 15 years ago, and that's not counting if you want the booklets.

How about a 7 disc game with each one sold separately

That's bullshit. BUT, I believe it.
