Expedition 33

Soundtrack of the Year coming through

Can't believe they gave Monoco a swimsuit too.

It is the ultimate Gestral uniform after all.

I looked up this guys bio and apparently he was a part time guitar teacher who put "video game music" on soundcloud for fun sometimes before getting hired off of an indie video game forum

Heard some fucking bitch was escaping reality again.

some self-insert faggot handed godlike power with zero caveats

Verso is 100x more based

somehow when Atlus tries the exact same message it came across as phony and half-assed to Anon Babble but I don't see many people complaining about E33. Why is that?

I feel so bad for any other game in the music category at TGA 2025. Imagine reading off the contenders

AC Shadows...?

Doom The Dark Ages

EXPEDITION 33 WITH IT'S 8 HOURS OF QUALITY NOT HEARD SINCE NIER AUTOMATA

Token indie game we put here knowing it would never win but we have to pretend we care

you forgot Death Stranding 2 which will get the award because Kojimbo

What seems to be the problem...?

Music category is usually the nominees for GOTY plus that one game that is explicitly about music (maybe).

has double A gaming been saved?

There's two ways the game awards will shake out.
Option 1:

DS2 wins GOTY

E33 Wins best soundtrack and best indie

they trade blows in every other category

Option 2:

E33 sweeps

Blue Prince wins best indie because The Gay Awards thinks Indie is an aesthetic.

Caaaaaake

made by a complete newcomer who's only experience was being a guitar teacher and doing a few songs on soundcloud without any public

I
KNEEL

Did it need saving? Focus Home Interactive as a company have been coasting releasing niche double A games for a decade now although granted, they're practically the only company that lean into it.

I don't want this life.
Help me.

I hope both Versofags and Maellefags can agree Clea is a icy bitch

has double A gaming been saved?

It was saved the moment Nintendo said they're charging 80 dollars for mario kart. Now we have variable pricing as the norm and smaller budget games will get more attention for charging reasonable prices.

Almost all his dialogues are completely re contexualized after finishing the game

from giant bastard to very sad man

I remember the third semester being fairly well recieved, or maybe it was just Maruki. In either case it could be because it was tacked on in a rerelease, whereas this game was built around the message

astroturfed ass game, hope the game goes viral in the lgbt community.

I thought Hades 2 would win best ost since last year (assuming it hits full release this year) until e33 came out

it's because Joker already has a fucking ideal life while the only luxury Verso gets is oblivion

Final vilain GENUINELY does nothing wrong

DANCE FOR ME MONKEY
PLAY THE FUCKING PIANO, SLAVE

when that song finally hits at the end

Soken is better

is that just in his first fight?

He was best part of XVI at least

Which boss filtered you the most?
For me it was

Paintress

Renoir (first fight)

the chromatic Snake

why he got nips?

Art imitates life

some would argue one of the few outstanding qualities of that game was the soundtrack, I'd rather get the ost than the game frankly.

Nah, the acting was, XVI genuinely has some god tier acting, and Ben Starr is in it too, god bless that man
the gameplay is fine even if not very deep and the story is pretty good but nothing too out of field, but fuck the acting was good

I got Verso a bit ago and I haven't bothered to really figure him out. Do trash mob fights just go too fast to get him started? I guess found that weak weapon that gives him like unlimited AP, is that good to base him off of?

Gameplay of the year
Level design of the year
Visuals of the year
Story of the year

Just give it GOTY already

Being Alicia is unironic pure suffering.

I mean the real verso literally did put a self insert in his story, it's the part of his soul remaining
and even the self insert is fucking miserable

I love Soken, but Expedition 33 blew me away. The OST is eight fucking hours long, every single zone has multiple music tracks, combat and boss themes. Hell even the victory jingle is unique to each location.

That Amelie movie or whatever was good

generic ost but normies eat it up since they listen to dark souls hee-haw music

So... I just finished the game like 5 minutes ago.

What happens if I choose Maelle instead of Verso at the end?

Is it ok for western games to present women like this? Aren't we past that already?

simon, got fed up and started NG+ without beating him, I plan to get him this round though.

She and Maelle should be friend
Which Alicia? the fake or Maelle?

generic

Please link other OSTs like this one since it's generic.

forgot the picture fuck
Just know you did the right choice

all the side content in act iii one shots me if i get hit, what do? and no you can't expect me to dodge everything for 10 minutes perfectly

At least her dad likes her, but that's about it

never played a french game before huh?

I've yet to hear anything from him that tops Une vie à t'aimer
Frog rock opera > J-buttrock

We still have Elden Ring, GTA and Doom this year
It's going to be tough competition
I can see it winning the soundtrack but then again, Doom comes out this year

Opinion on Alicia's art? is she a good artist?

her mother's fairytale world had Alicia die in the fire instead

Clea is a mean and petty bitch to her

Verso genuinely loved her and died for it

Renoir was a based genocidaire. I can't believe they let you take his side and present it as the right choice.

generic

You're a salty ex-Bioware employee lmao.

best indie

god you people are retarded

casually transitions from somber cutscene to one of the best boss themes of all time

absolute legend

Sciel tells Verso to fuck her at relationship level 4

based

why the fuck are there so many cutscenes, it's barely unbearable b/c of this

How is the game from a JRPG perspective?
ls it hard? is there grinding for stats and stuff like that or it's a git gud or piss off situation with the whole parry shit?

Everyone is attractive, no homosexuals, huge emphasis on family and a love for life, the only black person with voice lines dies 30 minutes into the game, several suicides shown and mentioned, "badass" women are shown as weaker as the men and need protection, strong cultural and national identity with zero modern messaging. Games like this and Black Myth Wukong are like pouring acid into a tranny's eyes.

didn't Renoir also created most people of the expedition? Since he sent them.
Gustave is CLEARLY using Verso as reference, though unlike Aline (who creates ideal version of people with free will) and Maelle (who creates people only fitting her vision with no way to rebel), Renoir doesn't recreate actual people

Even worse. Her mom made it so her painted version lived but still got mutilated. Why didn't Aline just make it so there wasn't a fire?

if you're a fag who can't parry just dodge or build your characters around tanking hits

If this doesn't win soundtrack of the year im calling it rigged.

Finish the game first because the final boss doesn't scale

what's the name of that one battle theme that has the electric guitar section

the most mentally stable of the bunch is also the most benevolent creator

woaw

Une vie à peindre (the theme of real Renoir) is really cool too (it's funny how they released what's essentially is the final boss theme the moment they announced the game) but yeah Une vie à t'aimer is actual godlike
And if you understand the lyrics it's a very sad song

so i can explore freely after the last boss, keeping whatever they drop?

What are some good OSTs according to you? You won't reply, because you're a homosexual.

I'm on a 3060, am I gonna suffer?

ls it hard?

On Expert it has a nice difficulty curve, where it starts out hard, then gets easier and then progressively harder again. The final boss of Act 2 is genuinely Sekiro-tier and then in Act 3 there's a dozen bosses who can oneshot your party. Keep in mind this is on Expert difficulty, the game is considerably easier on the other two.

is there grinding for stats and stuff like that or it's a git gud or piss off situation with the whole parry shit?

You can grind quite a lot if you really want to, though I think the devs did a pretty good job in making it feel like you're always at roughly the expected level for any of the big boss fights.

Yeah

There might be a few but the big one is Une Vie a t'Aimer

ls it hard? is there grinding for stats and stuff like that or it's a git gud or piss off situation with the whole parry shit?

honestly it's a bit of both
if you can't dodge you're gonna get fucked in the ass, but stats do matter because the game gives you a lot of room and creativity to create insane damage builds

not hard
not much grinding except a short one to hit 99
you don't have to get good because the game has no balance so you'll end up nuking everything before the credits

I dare you to show me anything from Soken that trumps Renoir's theme

yes you can, and you can start ng+ whenever you want from one of the flags. Though you should get gud first.

3070Ti here and im constantly at 80FPS, it's been great

The damage cap picto removing it completely was a mistake. It should've just made it 99,999.

you don't have to get good because the game has no balance so you'll end up nuking everything before the credits

You're either a god at parrying or a lying faggot. The boss of Act 2 is designed with reaching damage cap in mind, he can't get "nuked" no matter what you do. It's only until way into the late-game that you can get bypass the damage cap.

the Wukongtrannoids are still trying to get Anon Babble to like their troon game, now attaching themselves to an actual good game in E33

Fuck off and go be a parasite somewhere else.

Completely unknown composer, with more or less zero experience, writing one of the best soundtrack in a good while

Completely unknown team, working on a brand new IP, in a very niche genre and a restricted budget, having everything in the industry going against them, actually releasing a extremely good and successful game

Lightning in a bottle kind of event

This project wasn't even the director main project, and originally was supposed to be a small indie game (in fact, the original voice actor for when the game was a small indie game are credited in the credit)

Do you think the balance would've been better if the full damage uncap picto was only offered after beating the final boss?
And maybe the act 2 uncap just uncapped it to 99,999

simon has like 60mil hp, how the fuck would that have worked out?

this isn't nearly as good

Soundtrack of the Year coming through

All of the tracks I have heard are very mid.

Anybody that praises the soundtrack to high heaven is just a marketing shill.

a chinese monkey game is a troon game

Falseflagging salty tranny.

So far its the Serpenphare with its ap drain

Should I start on expert mode then? is there new NG+ or extra dungeons/bosses?

simon has like 60mil hp, how the fuck would that have worked out?

Eh hem.

file.png - 600x338, 526K

those vocals

you lost me

Yes absolutely. I got a 235k counter on Maelle very shortly after going into Act 3, so I really hoped for Renoire to be tanky as hell. But yeah, unfortunately he wasn't.

playing like a complete maniac for an entire week and disregarding all my important things to do was, for once, actually worth it because fuck this game was good

Im honestly kind of annoyed they gave all the best battle themes to extremely rare enemies and all the normal battle themes are just kind of ok at best.

Post soundtracks you like. You won't, because you're just a salty tranny who is upset over the fact that people are tired of generic "epic" orchestra soundtracks.
I started on Expert right away and it was a fun journey, though some parts really forced me to get good.

Give me the casino soundtrack, I beg of you, My gambling soul is requiring it

a generic goyslop game is a tranny game

Yes. What are you going to say next? That New Vegas isn't a tranny game either?

I unironically think this has got to be one of the funniest games I've ever played. This game kills my sides every 5 minutes.

This is in the diary you fine in the greenhouse, basically she hates her

an entire week

game has been out for like 4 days

relax time-travelling bro

Nox did nothing wrong and i bet majority of anons here would do the same (his only mistake was his overestimation of Eliacube powers)
youtube.com/watch?v=CA2w7dGYUME

Renoir's theme

tfw you realize it's his theme that plays right before the gommage at the start
this is going to be a completely different game on replay with all the context

You can very easily get multi hit 9999's before the end of the game which is more than enough to kill anything extremely quickly. Post game is literal 100 to 0 on nearly everything.

generic goyslop

Shouldn't you be back on sharty by now, faggot?

Pretty much. All the statuses, break related stuff and longer music tracks just gets ignored as you pump out millions of damage and can ignore even having to dodge and parry anymore

tfw just beat the game and can't wait to experience the story again with everything recontextualized

i fucking love stories that change entirely after knowing everything

Tfw you realize Monoco wasn't just breaking the rules to bring Noco back out of selfishness, but because he knew about Verso wanting to erase the canvas and supported his choice, there was not much time left so he wanted to be with Noco just a little bit more before the end.

mom hates her

Clea hates her

everyone in Lumiere is gone

Verso is dead

Renoir is probably barely keeping it together

what now?

You can very easily get multi hit 9999's before the end of the game which is more than enough to kill anything extremely quickly.

Confirmed for not having played the game. Several Act 2 bosses are already designed with this damage cap in mind. You saw a webm of it online and thought that this would be enough to "nuke bosses", when the devs actually expected it to happen already.

Soken went really hard for some tracks but I think he blew his load way too early.
youtube.com/watch?v=ZfIXHgAq6Kw

no argument

KEKAROOOOOOOO

huh it's being 4 days? fuck I think I lost track of time a little, I was too invested

You do know that anyone who has actually played the game can now immediately tell that you're lying, right? That's only the first damage cap, and it's not enough to kill any of the tougher bosses quickly.

ah nah thats not the one im thinking of, i remember it playing a few times fighting enemies, dont remember if they were chromatic or named

War crimes against Writers

Stop shilling this shit, I literally just played 2hrs of it and it's overrated as fuck. Literally soulslop babbies first jrpg

Someone posted some bangers from boss fights yesterday but I can't find them on youtube

Soken's an absolute workhorse who's put out a bunch of great music, but he also has several assistants, and the majority of XIV tracks are just variations on a few themes.

a Writer probably could write Gustave and co. into reality if their powers are what I think they are

KEKAROOOOOOOO

Yup, 100% a shartyfaggot.

What if the writers are literally just the writers of the game? like, they are the one investigating the events

It's really funny how often I see shitposters expose themselves by saying that. Quite literally nobody says that except shitposters.

that's okay, certainly not better than 11 minutes of non-stop operatic kino

turn based JRPG

"soulslop"

Ex-Bioware employee big mad lmao. Or maybe ex-SE employee, they had tons of layoffs as well.

Why do you get so defensive over the game for a criticism? I like the game. You can definitely annihilate these bosses very fast and I did it myself. I'm unsure if the visages axion had more to it (as in battle cutscenes) because it just fell over immediately.

I'm glad i rushed the story on expert. It was challenging enough and the final fight lasted around 10 minutes.

could there be two soundtracks with a more stock sound?

alicia uses flueuret furry

fucking holy shit this move is aids. literally designed to bait you into early dodges with the way she moves and the sound cues don't help at all

that Gestral beach platforming challenge in act 2

Good fucking lord give me strength

Anyone else use the purple sword you get from that cool sword boss the entire game? There were probably better options but I liked it

why do you get so defensive after I exposed myself by extremely obviously lying? here, let me double down my specifically mentioning the very first boss you can kill with the first damage cap reached

I found the volleyball challenge the worst one

What kind of expression does this mean?

versoo.png - 834x691, 375.44K

I don't think it's a criticism when the game is specifically designed with these damage caps in mind, buddy.

the raft volleyball?

I'm not buying AC Shadows, saar.

The one that lets you normal attack for free every single turn? Yeah it's insanely busted if you stack all those normal attack boosting things on him too. You can get 9 AP on your first turn. That shit carried me through the game and made Versa by far my biggest damage dealer. Though mainly cause I missed the Maelle weapon from the arena.

The one that let's you basic attack for free? I'm about midway through act 2 (I think) and it's working out well so far. Load up attack luminas for double attack and +1 AP for free 4 AP each turn plus powerful.

Literally haunting, it's like the eyes and face are both expressing different emotions, the face looks neutral and serious, the eyes are screaming for help
Those are the real Verso final emotions

Even then the full damage uncap shouldnt be more than 999,999.
I beat the superboss before doing half the other optional areas so theres not not much drive to go back and beat even easier bosses except for trophy hunting.

what's your favorite monoco loadout?

No I didn't really have much trouble with that once I got down the timing. The one where you have to keep climbing up to the top in the area of old Lumiere.

wypipo cannot have vocal song in game. So cannot Chinese and Blue archive.
Only Japanese games can have vocal songs in game.

I just reached the point with the white jar nigger, the game is just some Frenchified Fromshit loveletter, if I wanted to parry like a sweaty bitch I'd play a Fromslop game not a JRPG. It's obnoxious as fuck to have reaction based moments in what should be a chill as fuck genre.

rush main story

final boss is decently challenging as you're not over leveled

mid game side content is trivialized if you decide to go back to do it.

end game side content still challenging

vs

take your time and do all the side content before the main boss

main boss gets one shot by your maxed out team.

mid game side content is decently challenging, and end game content is still challenging

What do you guys think is the best way to approach it?

I'm well aware 9999 is the initial damage cap. What made you think otherwise?

This game is woke as fuck. The Straight white male MC gets killed off 1/3 into the game. Sciel and Lune talk about their lesbian night together. Shit is woke trash, It's a thinly veiled feminst propaganda.

Pain. Agony, even.

The first one. The last boss is epic and fun as fuck if you dont simply one shot him.

I know you must be baiting but you are only making your movement even more ridiculous

I saw someone said you can refight old bosses for getting Monoco skills. How do you do that?

For me first option, I want the story bosses to still mean something, especially on a first playthrough.

this song was so good, I had to check it out online the moment I finished the fight
There is so much attention put into the bgm of the game, this fight got its own track and even every single gestral beach got their own track

Enjoy side content. But honestly i hope there will be a rebalance mod that doubles HP of main game bosses, they still hit like trucks, the issue is their survivability.

What are the battle themes that play when you fight claire and obscure at the monolith?

Why did the 'real' Verso look like a child anyways when he died as an adult? Renoire and Aline looked normal.

I think as long as you're not grinding out intended-for-endgame-but-good-luck-anyway-lmao super bosses, you should be fine doing some side content (prior to Act 3)

What made you think otherwise?

The final bosses of Act 2 cannot get nuked by the first damage cap "extremely quickly". It literally doesn't matter what you do, they're very long fights even if you play perfectly and with constant damage cap. The fact that you immediately tried to downplay it shows that you're just lying.

Maelle still crying over Gustave and shit while Sciel and Verso fuck

lmao this little girl's ride of suffering never ends

Is it me or Renoir is a lot easier than the paintress? Even his attack pattern isn't that hard
desu I was happy to have a breather but his last fight left me a bit wanting for more

go back to asmongold's discord faggot

And where am I wrong? The males are all punching bags to the females.

Its his childhood canvas

Probably because its just a PIECE of his soul.

is the side content still decently challenging if you try and do it all of it as it's available?
If that's the case then a mod that makes the final few bosses have end game super boss tier hp/damage shouldn't be too hard.

The move where you lose 90% of your HP + the move that does more damage the less HP you have remaining. The rest doesn't matter.

I think it's because he started painting this when he was a kid. Isn't it one of his only painting?

In case anyone takes this seriously, none of that happens. Now go back to your discord, shartytranny.

the males are literally the only people preventing absolute disaster.

No it isn't. Limit break is not an uncommon feature. In this games case it's just a band aid for the mobile tier balancing. There is fun in that certainly, but don't pretend it isn't so.
Endless tower. Use him in your party for all of it and you'll get most of them.

You must be thinking of some other game you didn't play, because it's not this one

Yeah his fight has fewer gimmicks. Mostly just the attacks that drain your ap

Endless tower. A second Grosse Tete is in the flying manor

Moreover, Monoco admits that Noco can be revived but he won't be the same Noco anymore, thus not being excited about reincarnation. It ties quite well with the painted world not being real and Verso himself being a copy of a dead character. The story must have a lot of nice foreshadowing

The issue is really not the grinding since leveling up barely affects anything, it's party optimization. When Verso can do 130k damage before the damage cap is removed you start wondering why the fuck didn't he solo everything in the game 50 years before its events.

is the side content still decently challenging if you try and do it all of it as it's available?

Yes. It ranges between decently challenging and FUCKING BULLSHIT no matter what you do.
The issue is purely main game bosses.

haha tranny

doubles down on blatant lying

Renoir and Verso are the most sane people in the game and the paintress ( mom ) and maelle are 2 retards who wants to live in a fake world.
The men are on the right and women on the wrong in this game.

Too much whooo, not enough wheee.

A shitload of dialogues, which look mysterious at first, can have completely different meaning when you replay the game, if you are french/understand french, the songs lyrics also have some very important stuff

i just chilled like 20 minutes listening to the music box ingame, didn't feel so comfy in a long time

This game is so much better than Persona 5 Royal

and that he does to to help return the favor to Noco

What? P5R was some of the best writing I've ever seen in a JRPG til now.

that scene where he hugs Maelle

Biggest bro in the entire game. Shouldn't have given those mushrooms to the expeditioners though, that was kinda fucked up.

Oh right. I came to this conclusion by myself earlier today, but I already forgot.

Lose My Shit.png - 312x414, 91.67K

Please spoiler your shit

very long

You clearly do not know what you're doing. Nothing in this game takes long to kill at that point.

can't even spoil the story properly

Holy shit you're actually crying in front of your computer right now out of blind rage lmao.

When I picked Verso ending I feared I picked a bad ending, then I saw Maelle, jesus fuck
One is very sad (I love how all the human party members, instead of supporting you, genuinely looks hurt), the other is horrifying.

P5R was some of the best writing I've ever seen in a JRPG til now.

lol, lmao

Seriously? Hard dropped. The shills for this pile of shit couldn't be more obvious. I can see their big thumb 1000 miles away.

if this doesn't at lest win OST of the year im gonna be pissed

the browns have learnt how to mask their identities by calling everyone else Indian

grim tidings

Did you consider not going to the game threads until you finished the game or at least are close to the true ending?

You can workaround the damage cap by using multi hit skills.
Elemental genesis for example can hit 9999 5 or 6 times in a single turn.

Esquie VA is the same in both dub

it's a french guy

I just knew the way he said Bonjour and Mon Ami, it was too french to be english

without spoiling tell me can you get both endings in a single playtrough?

You can do damage cap Steel Haze every single turn and it still takes almost 10 minutes to kill each one of the Act 2 final bosses. It is *literally* not possible to speed this process up unless you hit absolutely every single counter, in which case you're so good at video games that you wouldn't complain like a bitch in the first place.

Good morning sir.

Should be a serious contender for goty honestly, what the hell else is even coming out this year except for gta which could do a sweep I guess

Imagine being Kojima, GOTY is going to be grabbed from him AGAIN

You decide the ending after the final boss, you can pretty much just reload to the last boss and kill it again if you want to. Or just watch on youtube.

>DS2 wins GOTY

GTA 6 will win GOTY. There's just no other timeline right now where it loses to anyone.

Reload previous save. It autosaves right after the final boss fight, so just make your second choice.

Fuck off asshole. Spoiler tags exist for a reason. Use them. I should be able to talk about the gameplay on this video game board without worrying about some moron spoiling every second plot twist.

Everybody fucking knows that. I hit 13 times with Steel Haze for the damage cap when I fought the final boss of Act 2. It still took 10 minutes. Again, you are lying and everyone who actually played the game knows it. The fact that you feel the need to explain something this obvious just proves it once again.

GTA6 is gonna be the GOTY anyway if it doesnt get delayed.

There's a true ending?

You will respawn at the final flag after finishing, so you can just redo the final boss and then pick the other option.

I keep forgetting that GTA 6 is actually supposed to release this year
Probably why there's almost no releases for the end of the year, the only one I know is Silent Hill f for September apparently

There's 3 endings, in fact. And in the best ending men are right.

Real niggas don't lie

if GTA comes out this year it a guaranteed GOTY

but i have a feeling they will delay it to early next year

stop being a bitch ass and tell the truth nigga

If you lie to her you're gonna miss a gradient attack

What the fuck is this

There's no three endings, there's a fake ending and two real endings

a AA tightly packed 30 hour experience with no bullshit nickle and diming with DLCs, content packs, season passes and super mega ultra deluxe editions

a cast of handsome men and beautiful women

a proper JRPG in the current year with build and character variety and a decently high skill ceiling

a fantastic 8 hour long soundtrack made by a literal who music teacher that is uploaded in it's entirety on YouTube by the devs themselves

GTA6 is popular, but it's Call of Duty and FIFA tier popular, it isn't celebrated as much with awards because it's guaranteed to sell fuckloads and everyone knows it. It won't win, GOTY, just like how RDR2 didn't win GOTY.

Yes sir be sure to purchase the Microsoft Game Pass sir

Most soulless shit I have seen in months. Imagine being proud of ignoring 70% of the content in the game, especially when all the hardest bosses are optional.

Someone finally made a game more schizo than Xenogears

tries to get cocky after being exposed as a complete liar

Go back to your discord, tranny.

small dev team of 30

technically they did outsource for a few sounds (I think), QA testing, Localization, and most combat animations were done by a Korean team of 8 guys. The game apparently used a lot of bought/found assets to save time.

If you start a new game while you have one in progress do you get a second save slot or does it overwrite your existing one?

explain

Americans. Too much estrogen and microplastics, probably.

nigga why would you do this? the game is amazing. im 20h in and maybe not even half the game beaten. its too good to rush

as a parent this is definitely a good idea

lmao this game fucking kills me. I love Monoco

I will do the optional bosses in the NG+. Rushing the main story instead of doing the side content first made the whole compaign more challenging and soulful. It was epic as fuck to actually fight the final boss instead of one shotting it.

Was never really filtered at any point in the game. I was able to just change up my build if it didn't work anymore. Simon in particular wanted to be sekirosoulsbornering but no, I just switched it up to a one shot build.

localizers are devs now

Kill yourself.

mfw entering Spring Meadows and Linen and Cotton starts to play

Doing optional content trivializes the campaign, and thats where the most epic fights are because of the phases, the story and the music. I can do the side content on NG+.

I wish I had Monoco in act 1, I was too used to my party in act 2
but he did save my ass as a backup member

if I say something it's true

Doesn't work like that. I accept your concession.

explain.

This is the dev team. That's the sole reason for the hate.

oh didnt know there is a NG+, but still i would never rush a game like this... but i guess you had fun so good for you i guess

decent premise

diverse in appearance but not overly woke garbage (everyone appears aestheticly appropriate and not the anime protagonist fat black female with a side shave hogging cameras)

believeable acting and dialog

actually good looking females that don't just yell "IM WOOMAN" on every achievement

visually looks good

sound track finally sounds like an rpg

Only just got to the indigo tree but I am actually, in the year 2025, enjoying a nice rpg.

As a frenchman I'm very proud this game is getting big, usually the stuff made in France only stays known in France

unfortunately the balance is a bit screwy, and doing all the endgame side content before the final boss makes it trivial

we've been infiltrated by genuine brown third worldists who hate good things

ng+ is ass if you do the side content so that's the best course of action if you wanted to do it

le gayme is le based

just look at le copy-pasted niggers everywhere

t.le marketing shill

Who is Monoco?

>diverse in appearance

What? There's only one "diverse" character past the first hour of the game and she looks like this.

look mom i posted it again

Black people can exist anon...

the troon in the middle.

look, there's a black guy in the crowd in my racing game

These are literal background NPCs that never show up again after the first 30 minutes of the game.

She's just ugly

The underage boy with whom Gustave makes love in 2nd act

As a frenchman [coherent English]

I don't believe you.

The side content before the endgame is balanced. Only in the endgame are you expected to beat the final boss first before doing any of the side content.

look mom i posted it again

The boss fights would be less hype if they didn't mogg the main battle theme.

gommaged by based Renoir

and?

that boob jiggle

Bought the game just now.

I don't blame you it's known even by us that most french people have terrible english skills

Now I know what nigger worshippers look like.

is the game popular in France? what does the French media say about the game

this is like Witcher for Poland moment

I finished Aliens Dark Descent quite recently and that turned out to be a french game. What's depressing is the last good Anglo game was also an Alien game, 11 fucking years ago. It's shameful.

FF fags, chinks who dislike a Western Studio making good games again and tendies, thats literally it.

Poltards will still try to convince you that the game where a white protagonist can fuck this is woke

why does the game have you play and forge relationships as verso when maelle is the main character

France is the third-highest ownership according to Steamspy's baseless guessing after China and the US

fantasy game

BLACKS EVERYWHERE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

everyone talking about Verso or Maelle's suffering forgetting that Renoir is basically alone trying to keep his BPD woman moment family in check and together

tfw it's literally a fictional world

not only this but France was more welcoming of black people than even the US in the early 20th century (the game takes place in 1905)

and there's also a lot of white NPCs

God I hate these lads

Nobody cares about men. Men are meant to suffer in silence.

t. Jamal Rodriguez the 100% Aryan-American from New Mexico

romancing saga 2 remake mogged this fr

he thinks the game is set in France

lol you antiwoke faggots dont even play the games you criticize

i was just about to make a thread about this
i bought the soundtrack and im listening to it right now
it is just so good

Oh no no no!
What did they mean by this?

And not only Renoir has to wrestle with his insane wife which paints his version as a bad guy, he also has to tard wrangle his daughter as well. Amazing

he has to tard wrangle one daughter and presumably keep his other daughter from burning all of Paris to the ground to kill one wrigger

the other daughter is a sociopath that can't show the slightest hint of empathy

your golden boy is a corpse

who knows? Lune had a similar conversation about Gustave.

FF fags

everyone I know that’s been interested in this game are in fact FF fags, this is exactly the kind of game that the franchise has been lacking

fantasy game

inspired by historical Chinese history

niggers instead of Chinese people

ohmygodimgonnacooooooooooooooooooooooom

Misery loves company, last time they did that was after their parents grommaged. Purely platonic, sisterly love friend.

Everyone in lumiere is banging. Rawdogging your friends is encouraged. For all mankind.

how am i supposed the play the damn game when Lune is flashing her bare feet right in my face???

French chicks are Bi

Wait until you see the relationship level 5 event, I couldn't believe that shit.

French chicks are French

oui

I didn't romanace Sciel because she obviously was still grieving her dead husband and child,it felt wrong to me

except Maelle, she lives the sad NEET life no matter the world
I can fix her

its a FPS game

She's the painters version of doom slayer genociding wriggers

can this be easily pirated?

the reveal of why she saw a baby during Sirene was fuckin brutal

all the girls are hot

all the guys are manly and hot

0 tronns, gays, religion and politics

retards still call it woke

imagine living your life this miserably

*AHEM*
*ting ting ting*
FUCK THE WRITERS

built for Big Writer Cock

one of the best songs is just casually put on a main story miniboss (seething boucheclier)

absolutely wild soundtrack, i can only see nier competing for soundtrack of the year if the rumor of a new game is real.

I wouldn’t complain

because e33 is still in the honeymoon phase. give a month when the shills go away and the sheep begin waking up

it doesn't have any DRM. but you should support the devs.

Assassin's Creed Unity 2

Any game can easily be pirated if you actually know how to pirate. Even for denuvo games.

the camp conversation between Verso and Sciel where he asks her about her scar and she doesn't say anything

then you get to the sirene fight and understand it without needless exposition

if this game doesn't win GOTY this year this industry deserves to crash

nothing of what you wrote is relevant for a good game
gameplay? kekus maximus, it's like they deliberately picked the worst aspects of three worlds (turn based, souls, jrpg)
setting/writing/story? nigga please, every webnovel has the same setting, all they did was slap on dark souls visuals, copy more tropes and other shit from popular games and then drown everything in hours of cutscenes, qtes and jrpg style blabbing
exploration? I hope you like invisible borders, le random and unnecessary grappling hook and gated content
choices? it's a fucking on rails story
challenge? nah, it's handholding, exposition dropping, easy mode central

Gustave and Verso are doormats to the women.

notFrench can use magic powers to turn works of art into reality

what are the notBritish, notGermans and notRussians doing?

they're wriggers

I love how this game trusts its players to not be morons

if the rumor of a new game is real.

Even if it is, it won’t come out this year. Square barely has releases in 2025, would expect only announcements

you are Chinese

Everytime I see this picture I think it's the exorcist

Real French vocals > Made up french giberish vocals
Nier stands no chance.

did you cry when sophie gommaged? be honest. me, im personally autistic so I did not cry.

on a very obscure like French uh independent game developer forum where he just put a music uh like once and I just went to this forum like once and I listened to his track and hey this is cool you want to work together and he was like yeah okay uh and 154 tracks later. He is absolutely insane like, like really like legit absolutely insane and you know like the the fun thing working with him is that sometimes like he just sends a music and he like "Yeah I spent like two hours on it I think it's not really good." And he sends you like this absolute masterpiece of a song that I've been listening to for five years now.

The balance of this game is all over the place. I played on the hardest difficulty and it was really hard at the beginning but after you get Verso you just go turn 1 one shotting everyone until you beat the game. At least the first Renoir fight gave me some challenge but every boss after I beat first try.

you guys are really enthusiastic to continually reveal you haven't played the game

I was laughing cause they just copied the Thanos snap.

You didn't play the game.

ive been crying to any tearjerker ever since my father died a few months ago

lil bit

This! This is actually a very good game. $50 bucks is a steal for this.

Expedition 33 and Look outside

2 kino rpgs in 2 months

both made by indie devs

We're eating good.

lmao

the difficulty does kind of plateau after you get Verso, but it ramps up again once you hit the Monolith. And the end/post-game superbosses are a big spike even with the damage uncap

I teared up a bit sure. The music definitely carried the scene.
youtube.com/watch?v=w5BahWrhPt8
I was listening to it today.

Bro, people still dick ride Last of Us 1 almost 13 years later. E33 will be remembered fondly as a cult classic, just like BG3.

Even SMT is only hard at the beginning. That's just how it is when you figure the game out and it's what makes it good.

Personally I think most streamers fake cry to that shit for views, I find it hard to be effected by very telegraphed deaths that exist to get the story to start moving.

I do tend to tear up towards endings, Klonoa and Metro Exodus for examples.

Yeah I guess I shouldn't have leveled up at all nor used any pictos. My mistake.

"Writers could be here" she thought, "I've never been in this painting before. There could be writers anywhere." The cool wind felt good against her bare chest. "I HATE WRITERS" she thought. Une Vie à t'aimer reverberated Esquie, making it pulsate even as the 9 chroma picto circulated through her powerful thick veins and washed away her (merited) fear of writers after dark. "With Esquie, you can go anywhere you want" she said to herself, out loud.

can anyone drop a link to the whole OST? im tired of youtube

No tears, but some feel, which is rare on my part, same at the ending

Motherfucker.

She's borderline sociopathic

She hates wriggers

My wife

Nobody gives a flying fuck about TLoU lol. The only reason you saw anything about it is because of the TV show. Once that's done with it'll be forgotten again. Same goes for BG3, it will never carry the same legacy as BG1&2.

lyrics are "bow wow wow" because monoco is the family dog irl

deepest lore

2:52 best part imo

Same goes for BG3, it will never carry the same legacy as BG1&2

HAHA.gif - 360x245, 1.85M

its outselling Oblivion on Steam

holy kek, total frog victory

Someone tldr me the story. I just beat the game but I skipped every single cutscene and to my understanding it was just some stupid family drama and women being retarded.

No

Why would you play a story driven rpg and skip the cutscenes?

Im talking about NuFF fags who like modern FF which is why XV, XVI and Remake fans are shitposting this game.

See you in 20 years, bucko. The game was already forgotten when it came out in EA for three years.

Aline is fine with playing dollhouse and ignoring Alicia and Renoir so long as she gets to be with her precious Verso

Clea is a creep that has zero empathy for the grief her parents and Alicia is going through and only cares about killing Writers

Alicia is Aline but even worse because she knows Verso is suffering but doesn't care

they're all fucking freaks except Verso who just wanted to be a pianist and thought it would be cool to make his imaginary friends real

you didn't play the game larping chinkboy

Nigga no one even knows what BG1 & 2 is but BG3 turned into a phenomena

Some jap fanart

S-shiposterbros..?

I blame the game for having 50 cutscenes before the first real fight. At that point I just wanted to play the game and started skipping.

Renoir is the most normal person in the family left and he's trying to prevent the whole family from falling apart

no one even knows what BG1 & 2 is

zoomgroids get the rope

The whole story of the whole team is basically an RPG that makes no sense still to this day which is just like, I send a mail to a random person on the internet and this person just says "Okay let's work together." And then this person turns out to be the most talented person on the planet.

lmao

imagine waking up to this in your email inbox one day and the guy says he doesn't think it's very good
youtube.com/watch?v=3kMbTzomh94

And he can be the pianist he always wanted to be as long as you pick the good ending.

What do the japs think of the game anyway?

Why do you call Renoir a freak? Instead of ditching his mentally ill family, he actually tries to save them

One could argue while being a bitch Clea has the most sense

Yea, but I bought a copy on Steam after getting to the overworld

crazy woman cant move past her sons death so she makes things difficult for the entire family

I like all FF games. There's no need to be tribalistic in every single thing in your life.

Renoir is fine, the women in the family though are a nightmare

A bit, but I was a bit drunk anyway

Holy zoomzoom. In 20 years your daughter (male) will laugh in your face when you tell her about BG3, while people in their 50s will still play and talk about BG1&2.

is sciel the only party member verso has sex with or is it because i talked to her first and locked out the others

Generally positive. Only saw 1 review that ends with "Not quite a god game...just... a good game."

I'm 34 and BG1+2 are a little before my time, grandpa. I did play them eventually, but that's because I went through a CRPG phase in my late 20's. No one my age in my friend group ever played those games, nor did they feel compelled to go back and play them after BG3, they'd rather just replay BG3.

French are all libertine, everyone has probably fucked each others off screen during the journey

Is there any reason to attack the nevrons that have quests after you finish them? I feel mean so I don't want to

yeah but Lune implies she would've thrown down if asked

Maelle remembers she's a paintress.

Brings Lune and Sciel back to life but not Gustave.

Wtf was her problem?

Famitsu got big mad and wrote a review full of obvious salt and ended it with a "7/10 b-because there were too many twists in the story!".

a few french nerds have made a better Final Fantasy than Square has been able to since the PS2

How will japs ever recover from this?

Froggie twists bad

Japanese twists good

I'm so glad this game released this year because I'm 32. Made it feel personal.

Honestly I just wish some of these didn't have some french bullshit for names. Because it's GOLD and I'll never remember how to say it
youtube.com/watch?v=3kMbTzomh94

The game hates Gustave. He gets shit on to an unreasonable degree

Gustave died to murder, not gommaging, he can't be brought back the same way

There's a very good reason to not attack any of them

Wouldn’t the chroma that made up Gustave still be in his body though? He didn’t go like the others did

Nihonese have been finished as a country since Kojimbo (PBUH) got fired

nor did they feel compelled to go back and play them after BG3, they'd rather just replay BG3.

It can't be overstated how crucial voiced and mocap speech interactions were for reeling in normies. CRPG's are doomed to be niche unless they ape the production values of BG3.

The best part is that there aren't even that many twists in this game to begin with. There's like what, two major reveals?

I attacked them and paid the price.

Leave well enough alone, anon. It'll pay dividends.

if you pay attention it's not even a twist
Japs simply can't function without endless exposition

if there was a side quest to repaint him that would have been kino, also would have filled out the 3 backline member squad

she has that "you won't cum unless i allow you" look

Well fuck, guess it's too late now. Total Nevron Death

For a laugh, switch the reviews to be from most helpful (today).

Capture.png - 1091x564, 490.51K

You need help.

Do the bonus fight require you to farm like hell? I love that game, enough to feel some hole when I finished it, and I did a few of the extra content, but some enemies are looking insanely broken

Second game is just Clea doing terrorism on writers

for me it's sad petite redhead

no i need her feet in my mouth

XVI does certainly some great tracks but they're mostly boss themes everything else is just okay

Outdoor bosses and sub areas are basically endgame and will require a fuckton of effort and/or grinding in Act 3/postgame.

Eh, I think Sciel is a bit nasty with her hag voice and kinda fucked up skull. Obviously still way better than the usual western slop, but still. Lune and Maelle are both so hot that it's almost criminal.

WAIT SHOW THE FRONT, ANON

Who was Siréne meant to be? I fought her before Visage and didn't pay enough attention so when it was revealed that Visage was Verso I felt a bit silly.

Why does Verso still considers Painted Alicia like a kid? Isn't she hundred years old like him? Maelle is the one who is 16

she is 16 you sick fuck

She could bring Lune and sciel back because their chrome were still "fresh" while gustav's chroma was long gone. The only way to bring gustav back would require her to have control over the canvas and her dad had the control at the time. She brings him back in her ending.

out of 10 and legal, you puritan amerimutt

Oh you sweet summer child, keep playing.

only 14 (FOURTEEN) negative reviews and its mostly genuine retards

Impressive

Feet? Really?

Sirene is Aline. all the axon are made by Renoire
Renoire, unlike his daughter and wife, doesn't directly recreate people, instead he use them as references.
it's why Gustave looks a bit like Verso but isn't him

Basically Renoire has more morale in his way to create things, he like to put more figurative stuff and layers instead of directly showing things in your face. In a way Verso (the real one) was like him too in his way to paint

MR NOMURA GET DOWN

Maelle is technically 32 yeah but she lived two childhood that "stopped" at 16, so she still is 16 mentally

Legal in france and other non-cucked countries.

good ending is when the guy you """saved""" cries in front of you and begs you not to let him live that life, then proceeds to play on piano with tears running down his cheeks

You must be a big fan of crack

Thanks anon.
I wish Renoir was my dad.

Sciel looks hotter with some of the other haircuts, the bangs don’t suit her that well

unnecessarily complicated and bulky

I'd love to see gooks try to play Pathfinder

Honestly it's really interesting how Renoire looks like a bastard (both the fake one and the real one), until you have the real context and in truth, both are just a very sad old men, it would have being extremely easy to just make him a "big bad"

I think I've got them all by now and I disagree. Her original hairstyle is the best one, she looks like an actual hag with most of the other ones.

beat Clea in 2 turns without taking any damage

"How is she so strong??"

Whatever

PLAY FOR MY AMUSEMENT BIG BRO

moral of the story is French women are a nightmare

Maelle.jpg - 1696x2048, 401.41K

It's hilarious how for every big story beat I've kept thinking "I know exactly how a typical modern writer would fuck this up" and instead they kept pleasantly surprising me again and again.

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to my replay. I found him terrifying at the start and thought he was a bastard for killing everyone but now I've got a very different opinion.

Many key devs are ex Ubisoft, Ubisoft games are not bad and works very well functionally but they really are cliche in their stories, especially in recent years, and their functionality are all based on protocoles (except for a few of the smaller Ubisoft studios who are slowly but surely dying). It must have being liberating of them to make a game without any checklist.
This is a game that doesn't try to aim for everyone at all, and somehow, they managed to hit big

old white man and his son are right and literally all the women are wrong

And Anon Babbletards call it woke???

I'm not gonna play it any time soon but the soundtrack is indeed pretty great.

I like this one.
youtube.com/watch?v=1KiFMEj7DtQ

Also why do the character proportions look so weird? Like the arms seem too short and everyone in bighead mode.

This seems to be the least cancerous thread, so I'm going to complain.

find hidden arena

spend damn near an hour doing the parry test with Small Head

now on the beach doing this fucking parkour course

have to use keyboard, because the game doesn't let me run with my controller consistently

Either this game has tank controls, or the dead zone detection is fucked. I don't have a single other game with this problem. Also FUCK RPG PLATFORMING.

youtube.com/watch?v=3kMbTzomh94
don't become like me listening to the full version repeatedly and becoming an emotional wreck now that I know how it ties to the story

desu Aline KNOWS she is wrong, her theme song directly says so, she just continues out of despair
Maelle is the only one who is truly wrong, the other human characters while they want to live, well, they miss most of the context or just don't want to die.

I was crying before that because I saw from minute one where this is going. Seeing people coping hit me harder than the conclusion.

Just use KBM then? I play exclusively with KBM in most games, it's not a problem here, not a problem in monster hunter, souls, whatever.

so how do writers and painters fight each other

I am using a pro controller and while spotty running in the overworld is tolerable, I have to switch to KBM for any platforming section.

百合子

I can understand that European and American players have little criticism of it.

If you play start at "Final Fantasy 6"

Then the work of the song looks "still ok"

If you played Final Fantasy 7, 9, 9

Final Fantasy 10

Final Fantasy 12

Then, you start playing Final Fantasy 15, you will feel that Electronic Arts has a reputation and integrity that is much higher than Square Enix

I don't know if you have ever felt that way. You are very passionate about and deeply fascinated by a work. Then you find that the author who wrote the script has changed. You never recognize the beautiful world again.

Some are just cheap scripts and full of Mary Sue stories.

I don't know if you have experience watching A Song of Ice and Fire. The next chapter turns into Guilty Crown.

As uncomfortable as eating faeces, KUSO GAME

It doesnt mean they are real people. Just that HE considers them like that. He's just a kid afterall.

Sounds like my experience. I'm never doing this section of the game again, lol. I'm too stubborn to just leave, so I hope the reward is worth it.

Starting fire on each other houses.

he's just a kid

He's Verso. You're entire argument was he wasn't really killing anyone but not even the creator of it all agrees with you.

Writer torturing Painter POW (1900, colourized)

Read Nigga.gif - 480x270, 1.59M

Just goes to show when you take away all the big suits, the bloated teams, useless advisory boards and the constant pressure to reach big sales targets, you can just end up with great games with clear vision and made with passion.

the writer isn't a Ubisoft alumni, she's literally never written a video game, or apparently anything professionally. Her resume is insane, though.

I love the dynamic between Versa and Monoco.

there's also the woman singing alone.
I think one of the bystander is gay dude it's funny how the game actually does have some representation, just a very subtle one.

But he's not killing anyone. What he thinks doesnt change how the things truly are.

What you think is simpleton "if its not human its not really alive" logic.

I'm so stupid, I genuinely can't remember how much info there is on the writers in the game. All I remember is there's some war going on between the painters and writers, but I can't remember if I read it in one of the journals or was blatantly told to us in a cutscene.

No

And then there's this Stacey.

AI robots are alive too is you use this retarded logic.

I talked with some ex Ubisoft guy before, some are genuinely great dude, many are just chewed on by the bureaucracy and prefer a "safe" job, are corrupted by power or just becomes too depressed due to bad working conditions. it's a shame really, especially when you look at their smaller studio where they manage to keep some freedom, like Ivory Tower, or those recent prince of persia games that actually were pretty nice games done in full freedom

Maybe they are. Then what? Your whole argument falls apart if I say sure.
Even our brains runs on electricity.

they really are cliche in their stories

so is this product
it's your typical asian webnovel story, there are a billion variations of this out there
of course a little ignoramus like you wouldn't know and think any of this is new

without any checklist

random grappling hook (every modern game ever)
robot arm (sekiro)
quirky slightly titled hud (persona)
totally not korok seedbut big dudes (zelda)
trashcans (every jrpg ever)
fucked up world (dark souls, even looks like straight up souls game)
random jrpg dialogues
cutscenes galore (every movie "game" ever)
...

the checklist is endless
of course, again, a zoomer like you wouldn't be able to tell since you played like 5 games in total in your life

AI

Why is this your go to argument

Clea says it, and at least she claims they tricked Alicia somehow and caused the fire that disfigured her and killed Verso.

Because Just like AI. The painted people are human creations made to simulate real people.

anon I... that's just reaching

Clea mentions the war before she fucks off to handle business

God I hope we get some DLC that reveals some more of the outside world.

I'd love the idea of using the paintings as different sequels/expansions as an excuse to enter new worlds.

nah, it's not
you know it
it's just a difference in experience
that product is made for inexperienced zoomers after all and they gobble it up

Renoir did say Clea was a fucking psycho

all the little tableaus and interactions were very effective with the realization that most of these people wouldn't exist in a few minutes

woman sitting by herself surrounded by flowers

blind guy you talk to who spent his last night of life making an Expedition uniform as an apology to his son, who he'll never speak to again

the argument Sophie has about having kids and realizing they're having it right in front of the kid

the guy hiding the trash can

I hope not, I hope they will do a sequel with only some small references, many something from the writers side
though I don't know how the gameplay would work, like really would it be text based?

Walking around fake Victorian France showed that you can have black characters without having to worship BBC in every cut scene. France is currently undergoing its noticing period and realized you don't have to make black characters freakishly stand out. Gaming is healing.

Yeah, paintings as made up worlds is a much better execution than the Marvel shit tier multiverse where a bazillion stories exist just because (because the company needs to milk retards with infinite stories)

The story would have much less impact though. The major plot twist was the reveal that the world we know is fake and the lack of knowledge of whats going on.

Well, I just cleared it. That took me less time than the arena, thank goodness.

should I do the companion side quests before heading to the final boss, or just go there first and do them after?

It's interesting how they had that argument with kid, I don't know how it is in other countries, but here in France, there's many people on the younger side who don't want kids anymore, many because they don't believe they could provide a good future to kids anymore, it's a very sad phenomenon.

The one black guy in the expedition was a bro. Would share a drink with him

And what point does something go from simulation to just as alive as the real thing?

the first one is the easiest ;)

the French TND party won a majority of the votes in the last election

meanwhile Americans are still going all-in on nig worship

I think the seething is just projection from the mutts

Imagine if we get a writer’s world which is much more rigid in visual style, only for it to be revealed there’s some round robin shit going on and they lost someone to like, people who sing or something.
that or writers instead of creating fantasy worlds, can manipulate and create stuff in the real world, but they have to describe it via text

So I finished the game- where to next? Like everything is "dangerous" and overworld bosses absolutely rape me. What's the first true endgame/act 3 dungeon

If not for him Gustave would have gotten ganked within the first hour because of his concussion.

Soul. The only people who have soul in the canvas are Revoir, the paintress, verso and Alicia.

Do the companion side quests and then head to the final boss. And then wherever you want after, don't start NG+

robot arm (sekiro)

Didn't even read the rest of the post. Go back to your discord.

Did they ever explain how Gustave lost his arm?

NOPE NOT DOING IT AGAIN

Goon sesh gone wrong

Fuck me, I just now pieced it together. I didn't even realize the implications of him holding a baby.

right-centrism is currently the most popular party in France right now, next election will either be them again, or extreme right, but extreme right has less chances as Lepen is
I don't have much hope in the left, and I'm a left guy, until they replace one dude who truly need to be replaced, that guy is a cancer but he keep forcing himself. Thankfully he might be changed for a better candidate.
There's also one candidate of the right, but pretty much "the old right", he's respected by almost everyone including left wingers, if this guy arrives, I think he has a very high likelihood to win. and a part of me hope so even if he is from another side because he is a very respectable person who could unite people.
Black people in France also usually pretty well implemented, the one with the most issues are those in poorer area, because they are often drawn to religion and other cultures because the government does a piss poor jobs in these areas to make things better (for them)
anyway, this isn't vidya

Melenchon is an ape and the Frog left keeps supporting him (or at least the nigs do)

Don't be a baby.

Where is the bulge???

I think people are slowly being fed up by him, pretty much are majority of the left wing parties are tired of him at best and downright hate him at worse
they gotta have someone else, who I don't know, if Ruffin was good at talking maybe him because he has good ideas to unite people, but he's unfortunately not good at making speech.

I didnt screencap the line but specifically says he thinks they have a soul.

Sophie caught him with Lune once.
French women are insane

Genuinely was pissed when the cool drunk black dude died, he was a bro to the end and the game almost bait you thinking he's going to be an important part of the crew

They did this with a lot of the expedition members, and then you run into the girl impaled. Absolute crazy intro to the game.

What was his contribution to the game?

Lune feet

Esquie is voiced by the producer of the game

Holy soul, he did a great job.

He made sure that Maelle is as tight and sexy as possible for a 16-year old.

Souls aren't real. Neither is Santa Claus.

Its real in the game's context, retard.

You real think this game would say that painters creations are soulless if it touched on that more?

I think you have double digit IQ

They are literally soulless. Their "soul" is chroma which is a paint. The people who have souls have white colored hair, only a small part of the verso's hair is white because only a piece of his soul is there.

no argument

I accept your concession. You know Im right. The closest thing to the game ever talking about if the game has souls are not points towards that yes, they do have souls.

Again, not even Verso agrees with you.

PLAP PLAP PLAP

And verso is just a kid. It doesnt make him right. Reinoir and even his mom admit its a make believe world and its not real.

He's a kid who actually knows how the paintings work and unlike you has no reason to lie since hes not throwing a shitfit in a dumb argument.

His father and mother are much more experience than him in every way and they know they're not real.

This game is fantastic but I feel bad because it's not streamerbait at all, more people are playing the stupid drug game still

His mother never say theyre not real, and his father says he doesnt want to kill everyone, he just doesnt feel he has a choice anymore.

I am another guy than the one you debated with, I just find your lack of understanding quite stunning

The father straight up says to Maelle the world in the canvas is not real and is just escapism. You didnt even read the dialogue, jesus christ.

I am another guy

but I have the exact same viewpoint anyway

Okay? What was the point of telling me that.

No, he says she'll die if he stays in there. That's why he wants her out. You didnt even play the game, christ.

esquie keeps the headband

you can see the new message on the monolith

No, he said the world is a make believe world. You're just baiting.

Youre making shit up. Again.

You are.

I made my own screencap of Verso saying they're alive. Whatve you done? Watched a single stream? When does anyone say that the charcters have no souls?
