The overwhelmingly positive reception for a Final Fantasy knockoff feels so blatantly inorganic that it hurts.
Also, frog shills are not allowed to post in this thread.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a psyop
Seems that Chinkshills got desperate when switch 2 which will save Japanese game from peril and destroy Chinese slops is getting closer so that they shill expedition 33 from france as new black ship and japan killer... will Chinese reverse engineer switch 2 to make their own console?
it feels inorganic
Every time you say this you undermine the consistent narrative that video game discussion is manipulated by outside forces. It's just a good game, it's really fucking simple. Good things tend to get talked about.
BUBUBUBU SHILL
If I were paid to shill this game, I would be making threads about it, not calling you a retard, you fucking retard.
Will nintendo switch 2 save Japanese game and destroy these "Japan killers" from China and France? While Poland is allying with nintendo for AAA union.
It is one of the biggest industry plants to date. Nobody is really playing it. If it wasnt rated so highly on metacritic nobody would be defending it. Sheep
you overestimate the public. the game is made for a wide audience so of course it will find its playerbase.
It has like 15,000 Steam reviews and the usual ratio for reviews to players is 1:20 on Steam. It's on Gamepass and still sold that much. Why are you retarded?
oy vey, good games don't deserve all the praise and high ratings
Just shut the fuck up already.
Sometimes fpbp and other times spbp.
15000 bots
Okay.
Yoshi P lost.
Take your meds.
industry plant
that's not what that means
Pirated it expecting to play it for an hour and drop it.
Been playing it every day, and really loving the presentation of the bosses and the music. I usually drop jrpgs quickly but this 1 kept me interested
Players: We want turn-based JRPGs
SE: Ok, here's some dogshit action game with some numbers on it
Players: No thanks, I'll buy all these other real JRPGs instead
SE: I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY FINAL FANTASY IS FAILING
I wonder how many more times this is going to happen before they learn
already outsold metaflop
based.
too much race-mixing at the start, no thanks
Metaphor sold 1M shorter than 1D. And got 3 awards in TGA.
i was going to post in this thread but then you mentioned that frog shills weren't allowed in here so i'm not going to.
Metaflop sold 1M
and gave 100% of the money to sega. E33 devs get to keep all of the money plus the gamepass bonus.
Huh?
Sophie is a med girl.
But metaphor is on Game pass since Sega is allied with xbox.
actual cinematic movie game that isn't trying to be marvelslop, a lifetime soap opera, or a 40 years out of date action movie, and doesn't act like it's above its inspirations
Nice looking environments and demanding gameplay for people who don't care about that
RPG mechanics and unique character builds for people who like RPGs
This is just a good game, every post calling it a psyop is just the deranged rebirth tranny that spams all the stillborn threads for that game
Yup it was immediately obvious that the game is high quality even in the prologue. To anyone genuinely confused if this is a shill campaign, don't buy it, just pirate it. You'll understand if you play for even 30 minutes.
Anon CO has a publisher too, it's not an indie game
It's sad at this point.
from the npcs that get wiped at the beginning
It's just a good game, you contrarian tryhard
metaphor isn't even that good, it's a persona imitation at most (persona is not even that good)
it tried to be persona when atlus really needed to make it more akin to smt or eo
French gods saved gaming
And got 3 awards in TGA.
implying awards are relevant
When Metaphor has 94 metascore?
Did metaphor got bonus on metascore without negroes and gays?
It really has been the most artificially astroturfed game I've seen in many years. Everyone decided it was going to be legendary well before it released and just kept up the push afterwards. Weird that nobody can seem to explain why it's good exactly they just speak in broad generalities.
Yes, this is exactly what I expect the shill campaign to keep saying. Square's FF/KH team have always been excellent at creating real time combat, and are far better at that than any attempt to create a decent turn based game (where they've actually been consistently mogged by Pokemon and Dragon Quest lol). Their development of action/ATB hybrid systems has resulted in games with actual depth and actual have both proper action gameplay and tactical management elements, but they just aren't appreciated by the braindead idiots who thought that FF ever have good turn based gameplay.
Conversely, E33 is *exactly* the worst and most shallow possible approach to 'hybrid' combat, where pressing a button at the right (but arbitrary) time is what everything hinges on, and this makes everything else barely of importance in comparison. I have no idea why they're acting like they're delivering something 'back to the roots' of anything.
inorganic
Why?
-People are starved for an FF like game with a decent budget.
-Square Enix fail to deliver for the past 30 years.
-Some random studio in Montpellier delivers
-People are excited
Put the bong down dick head. Not everything is a coordinated operation carried out by the CIA.
Yorchtorch games, please go away.
Everyone decided it was going to be legendary well before it released
Nobody had heard of it until it came out.
t. butthurted tranny
it looks good although I'm not actually gonna play it
Also, frog shills are not allowed to post in this thread.
Or else what?
I'm organic and I enjoy French persona.
last game that clicked for me as hard was Helldivers2 and maybe Gamedec
Nobody could possibly like a game I don't like
Everyone else is just faking except me
What a narcissistic, solipsistic existence.
-People are starved for an FF like game with a decent budget.

FFX has basically garbage gameplay compared to DQ:XI. Hitting enemy weaknesses and then spamming quickhit/autolife because you've decided using Zanmato is too dishonorable isn't deep.
Just fucking pirate it and try it you faggot how am I going to explain "good writing" and "good characters" to you without sounding like a pretentious retard? It's paper mario/legends of dragoon but with final fantasy graphics and it's not written by kikes trying to demoralize you.
i am 13 years old
We can tell.
what discord are you from, tranny?
And got 3 awards in TGA
E33 would sweep if it wasn't for GTA 6 that's been in the making for 12 years lol
French persona.
I really could have done without the camping relationship tracks. They seemed really tacked on, and those moments could have been added into each time you find the manor, you go in and get a story piece from a companion. Would make finding the manor more fun besides opening the door tapping the flag and leaving
How much are they paying you per post? 5 rupees?
Is this part of the psyop schizo-kun?
Because I think it's based as fuck.
This game completely consumed me from the second I started it until the second I 100%'d it. What's this conspiracy about?
Nobody had heard of it until it came out
Pretty much. The only thing I knew about it before release was that Charlie Cox voiced the main character.
I am NOT being paid
I was NOT coerced into posting about clair obscura
I will NOT stop posting about it in threads about it because it's a good game
You will NOT win your little one-man war
This game that I don't care about is getting discussed?
WHAT? Must be a psyop!
Pathetic, get a life loser.
Also, frog shills are not allowed to post in this thread.
My copy (finally) arrives today.
I bought mine on the epic store so the devs can get more of my money.
spend years accusing everyone of being shill
finally play a game that I genuinly like
can't praise and recommend it here because it would look shill-y
you reap what you sow, bitch boy
Its funny how contrarians are stepping on parry mechanics, even though it fixed the biggest problem that made jrpgs annoying, the grindfest.
No excuses now, just need to git gud
People have wanted a good FF game since 10 and Sandfall gave it to them.
Okay, shill.
Sure, the game's popularity is heavily effected by media blitz, and western bias, but it's also way more organic than something like Blue Prince.
You have to remember there's a dearth of turn based RPG releases, so genre fans have nothing else new to play or talk about.
This site desperately needs IDs but still nobody wants to admit it.
I have admitted it for over a decade, thread-specific IDs hurt absolutely nobody and prevent shitposting
I said years ago that every board needs flags near posts. Mostly to identify - and ignore - brazilians and canadians.
So, this is the bitter am*rican schizos containment thread?
When thing you don't like do good, it means thing psyop and jews and DEI and boogeyman
When thing you like do good, it mean thing good
grug enjoy vidya game war ooga booga grug like buzzword and being a nigger ooga booga me is Anon Babble
I bought it.
It's a 5/10.
It sucks.
Don't buy it. OP is right.
is it? I'm american but like the game a lot and hope it continues to do well
92% positive on Steam
Highest-rated user score on Metacritic ever
Oh my god, so inorganic, must be a psyop...

jannies are retarded but not retarded enough to give you more tools for disregarding post content even more easily than you do right now
starting to honestly believe gaming was better when this place was shut down for a week
You can just stop visiting this website you know
not even youtuber grifters are dreaming up conspiracy shit like this and that's their bread and butter.

what is so "French" about it ?
fury avatar namefag
How awful.
Problem ?
Sometimes you just don't like popular games, anon
Everybody was sucking on Owlcat and Roguetrader's dick for the longest time, and I thought it sucked ass
It can't be helped
Final Fantasy knockoff
Felt more like a Persona knockoff than anything else
Their HQ is in Montpellier, France, and they are majority French.
I've also not found a single article online that supports your claim for Singapore and London.
Also Tencent owns like half the gaming industry.
Not everything is a psyop.
en.wikipedia.org
"Headquarters London and Singapore"
"Key people Alexis Garavaryan (CEO)"
Garavaryan
That's not the developer. That's the publisher. They only profit from the game, they're not typically involved in the development.
The developer is Sandfall Interactive. And they are French.
I'm pretty sure the guy you're talking to can't read, so you might as well drop it
low iq thai monkey does not understand what a publisher is
The day I stop educating people on things is the day I die
usual ratio for reviews to players is 1:20
I don't think I've ever seen one officially be under 1:20, but I think the norms a little higher than that, I personally know some indies as high as 1:70.
They only profit from the game,
That's the most important part, You german forest monkeys who destroyed Rome.
What do you think is important? Who develops games when they're just employees? While Chinese people like me are "boss"
Or do you think these profits will help your poor France?
Nonsense, just like a football team. That's your circus. How many people are actually French in the "national team"?
stand like retard during enemy "my turn to attack" and press qte
Do retards really
Also And of course the person who wrote the "story" was a Chinese woman. The story is the main soul of the game. It wasn't France from the beginning. Westerners like you only see things on the surface. You dare to say that this game is "French". If French people from 1789 found out, they would laugh at you.
"NOOOOO! Stop talking about video games on the video games board, you're stealing a twitter screencap thread from me!"
Get fucked.
And here it is.
I still need to finish my current (2nd) run of LotF, tho.
NOOOOO ONLY JAPS CAN MAKE GOOD GAME!!!! NO MODERN GAME IS GOOD STOP LIKING THINGS
kys nigga.
it really depends on the game, but when you're dealing with autistic bad faith arguers like in this thread, it's safer to lowball and 1:20 is the bare minimum you can expect for almost all games
As organic as these threads
How many times have you cries that its a psyops now?
Fuck off schizo retard
why do all schizos such as OP always use reddit spacing?
Because they are from the niggers club.
Fatlus and Squareniggers, lost get over it
People are dick riding an obvlion remaster of all things like it's GTA 6, it's a really grim year for gaming
P3 Reload > Rebirth > Metaphor > XVI > P5 Royal
