10 days after release
Expedition 33 just beat its all-time peak
This barely ever happens, that's fascinating.
best write it down in your notebook, dork.
China did this, and that is a good thing.
Haven't even hit peak yuropoor hours yet.
Blatantly botted. Assassin's Creed Shadows have 66% of peak week after release
Rebirthfag schizos undermining this achievement in 3, 2...
It's actually more popular in China. Peak hours is now. I'd be curious to see what they say about it.
Yasuke this Ubischlock
Those are bots, not real players. It's Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate 3 all over again.
I did this
E33 thread
people seethe about Ubisoft
That sale chart broke minds into an irreparable state
they have already begun
Why couldn't Square Enix afford bots?
why do contrarian faggots seethe so hard over this game?
is it so hard for you to believe that someone made a game thats actually good?
is it so hard for you to believe that someone made a game thats actually good?
That thought is very confusing for the modern SE audience
I think Clair Obscur is GOTY 25 and Rebirth GOTY 24 so no.
Ah, I see Anon Babble is still coping about popular games even after dying once.
Imagine defending shit game. Shadows beat this slop no problem
They just can't process the idea that a good game was made by a small studio for a few million dollars and it didn't require a kickstarter and a long alpha/beta process and then an 8 year cycle of patches and content additions to make it work.
No one can believe a game can be created like this by so few people, so cheaply, and have it release in a near to perfect state.
That's how abused the gaming consumer public is at this point.
why do contrarian faggots seethe so hard over this game?
I didn't care about this game until its insufferable fanbase started attacking actual Japanese RPG series for no reason at all.
Over the past 2 weeks I have read countless posts across all websites from E33 fanboys calling every JRPG series from Persona to Trails to Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, or even random shit like Yakuza, "shit" and saying their game that nobody cared about until last month is "better than all of them".
You brought this upon yourselves. If you didn't want war, then you shouldn't have parked your tanks on my lawn. Now I will not rest until your shitty "game" is destroyed.
Bait used to be believable
Consider suicide, you mentally ill freak.
Another highly successful woke liberal videogame
thats a pretty gay reason to hate a game youve never even played
for no reason at all
you started this, the initial e33 threads were pretty chill until you faggots derailed it
being this much of JRPG simp
bro touch grass
You first, faggot.
What you're doing is the equivalent of walking up to a random person at a bar and slapping them in the face for no reason, then crying and whining when you get glassed in return.
You didn't want your game to get shitposted? Then you shouldn't have shitposted about my games first. It's that simple.
You will never be japanese.
HOW DARE YOU INSULT BASED NIPPON *unseathes katana*
Nope, it's perfectly reasonable actually.
Why should I waste my money and my time playing a "game" which is blatantly being used as a weapon to attack the games that I love?
We didn't start anything. YOU did. I didn't set foot in even one (1) E33 thread before release date. I wasn't paying any attention to this game. Then you started with your nonsense proclaiming it "LE BEST JRPG EVER" and shitting on Japanese games, and you pissed me off.
Nobody slapped or insulted (You), tho.
Nah the sad part is the dev team is full of Former Ubisoft devs. The director worked on Ghost Recon: Wildlands & Division 2 before leaving in 2019.
That's called word of mouth. Can happen to new IPs if they're good.

Stop it Farquaad. The threads were already filled with you schizos for months.
Is it actually good, Anon Babble?, I bought 100 Line instead but might still try this out
Yes. Clear GOTY so far.

The fucking main menu...
I don't think there's a single aspect of it that isn't somehow excellent. Gameplay, RPG strategy, art, music, narrative, even runs pretty well for the most part. It's also not a JPRG style game full of 60 hours of cheap bloat, it's got just enough content as it needs and it is perfectly paced.
Menus are a bit scuffed for how much you might want to engage with customisation, and the balance itself can swing wackily from too hard to too easy, but these are minor complaints overall.
Persona to Trails to Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy
I'd be more inclined to try out those games if the art style they used didn't look like gay anime shit and characters weren't designed to look as obnoxious and ridiculous as possible right down to the goofy hair and retardedly large weapons. In b4 'you just hate Japan'. 15 months and counting learning the language and I play games in JP with JP subs whereever possible.
Yes. The game appeals both to normalniggers and to JRPG autists.
funny that this game would be ignored and forgotten already if only rebirth trannies could stop malding about it for 10 seconds. they're going to accidently make it a huge success while trying to hold it down.
That's some actually pretty amazing retention honestly
I'm glad the word of mouth could overcome the TES4R shadowdrop, game deserves it

"Anime shit" is part of the appeal, retard.
I play Japanese RPGs in part for the unique artistic flair that only Japan can provide.
I don't want to play garbage like Emasculation 33 which looks like fucking Baldur's Gate with ugly hyper-realistic graphics.
Woketard lost
lie and say that you were influenced by all these heckin JRPGs you just namedropped
when in actuality you just made turn-based soulsslop
This man deserves to be shot.
OH NONONONONO SHITBIRTH BROS
obsessed
But Expedition 33 popularity is soaring?
You have the maturity of a 15yo.
Now to sit back and wait to see if anyone accuses you of starting fandom flamewars.
Which is also better than most games.
The standards are low, granted, but the UI in this game is soulful and looks nice. The battle UI is excellent and flashy.
The actual functionality could use some juice though, customising the passives is a real slog if you accidentally unequip them all.
thats actually good
it's mediocre.
Bad level design
UI stolen from Persona
Enemy design stolen from soulslop
Art Style is ugly default UE5 realism
Generic combat with excessive QTEs
Character designs are forgettable
the audience for this are bots, indians, and normalfags (women and redditors)
"Anime shit" is part of the appeal, retard.
JRPGs have a wide appeal, not just the anime aesthetic. I personally enjoy games with western-inspired aesthetics the most, like Vagrant Story, Valkyrie Profile and Black Souls 2. I'm thinking of giving Shadow Hearts a try too.
Same deal with horror games, I prefer SH and RE over Siren and Fatal Frame. Sorry not sorry.
I totally like JRPGs, but only if they use euroslop aesthetic
Just say you're racist against Japan and move on. Don't bother trying to lie to me.
Man. That anon needs a hobby. Perhaps he should try videogames.
LEAVE YOSHI P ALONE
No.
He deserves it.
It's hilarious that this game is so particular you can instantly spot that somebody didn't play it.
The level design is fine, the UI is great, the enemy design is unique, the art style is expressionist (not realist), the combat doesn't have QTEs besides pressing X and Jump sometimes, and the characters are excellent.
The game is a success, just deal with it.
Oh no anons! Did someone do a raycism!?!?!?@?
You lost.
"Anime shit" is part of the appeal, retard
Sure. Just don't expect me to take anything in the story seriously or care about the characters when they all look and act like cartoons for children.
Nice. GOTY incoming.
why is this game so loved I don't get it. It wasn't even shilled.
Pacing aspect in general is very understated. Although it results sometimes in awkward transitions between plot beats, it's pretty much no filler all killer the whole way. That + next to 0 handholding makes it so much more enjoyable compared to something like XVI which hides its few moments behind hours of tedium.
You're probably one of the faggots who called Persona 5 style over substance when it released.
I liked Metaphor, but Expedition 33 made me aware of how tired I am of Japanese JRPG art style and tropes. They're so limiting and, ironically despite being quite flashy, a bit plain.
Metaphor is like 50% the game it could be, whilst E33 feels like a vision 100% realised.
Dumb ESL.
Final Fantasy,
Modern final fantasy IS shit and it hasn't been good for 24 years
Rebirthbros...it keeps happening...
Picked the game up yesterday, honestly very surprised at how much i'm enjoying it. It helps that the cast are nice to look at, it's weird how much that helps me get invested into their journey.
muh glorious nipponese rpgs folded over a thousand times
get a life dude
So which demographic keeps making negative threads about this? Squarecucks that are trying to pretend actionslop is fun? Tendies who hate non-Nintendo games on principle? Outrage tourists that hate females existing?
botted playercount
Yawn.
It's so hilarious seeing you people go full mask-off like this.
You pretend that you're JRPG fans who are loving this game because it is LE RETURN TO TURN-BASED ROOTS, then as soon as fans of actual JRPGs come along you start with the same criticisms:
anime tropes bad!
anime games look like they're for babies!
japanese games are too childish for mature and hardcore gamers such as myself!
Just admit it. You hate JRPGs and you hate Japan.
J'espère que tu aimes bien ma musique, Anon!
Persona 5's "style" is generic anime shit, and it's substance is whenever you get to engage with the actual SMT mechanics that the shitty school dating SIM leans on.
I enjoyed the game for the most part at the time, but having played actual SMT mainline and games for adults like E33 I actually find myself despising P5 and the people who dickride it. Atlus RPGs are aggressively mediocre that aren't SMT Mainline (Raidou gets a pass, and Riviera on GBA was cool)
falling for driveby bait
Sad! Bet you think Trails is good!
Fatlas bros.. what do we do?
Squarecucks that are trying to pretend actionslop is fun?
Expedition 33 IS actionslop, you retard.
The turn-based mechanics aren't even the main focus of the combat. The main focus is dodging and parrying which is a REAL-TIME ACTION mechanic.

Yeah, i really wish I could run in circles and mash attack like in rebirth
It's probably just insecure JRPG fans seething the most popular "JRPG" in the modern era wasn't even made by Japan, and that their hipster genre isn't unique and special anymore because everyone knows about it.

As an AtlusCHAD, I am very happy to see turnBASED games doing well. Currently halfway through Act 2 and it deserves every single praise it gets
It's not a JRPG, retard.
This game is literally just a turn-based Soulslike.
Nobody in their right mind would call Elden Ring or Sekiro JRPGs, and those games are actually made in Japan.
So what on earth makes you think this game, which just takes FromSoft's formula and makes it turn-based, deserves to be called a JRPG?
so true sis
It's not a real turn-based game.
If you have to master REAL-TIME ACTION mechanics to play the game, it's not turn-based.
hey, soundcloud guy, I'm making a game in a new studio with like 10 people. I know you never composed anything other than some tunes on some obscure forum, but I want an 8 hour long soundtrack on the same level as Keiichi Okabe and Nobuo Uematsu. You in?

Sir, a second peak has hit Squeenix headquarters!
Removing the damage cap entirely was a huge mistake and all the side content sucks ass because of it. There is literally no strategy in this game other than stacking damage buffs on Mael and then one shotting everything. Even Simon just removes your entire party from the canvas if you don't one shot him fast enough.
My mask was always off, retard. This isn't reddit and I am not Indian, I don't need to lie.
JRPGs absolutely are outdated shit for teenagers and neotenous businessman, mechanically and visually. SMT Mainline is the sole example of a larger budget/IP JRPG series that's still pretty good. I haven't played the lesser indie titles since I don't tend to like binging the same genre over and over, but they don't dictate the "meta" of the what a JRPG is like the offal of FF and Persona do.
What's fascinating is the constant accusation is that people only like E33 because it's photo-realistic when its most notable quality is how abstract and stylised the game actually is overall. Actual teenage weeaboo cope (and I say that as a childish weeaboo).
What a weird thing to whine about. I am starved for classic turnbased gameplay on both the JRPG and WRPG fronts, I don't mind Europe pulling a JRPG out of the aether. My dreamgame would be a CRPG with JRPG writing and characters.
no argument
Explain to me how this game ISN'T action-based when the central, defining feature of it's combat is real-time dodging and parrying.
Honestly? Not an unclosable gap. Assuming Atlus isn't stuck doing remakeslop for the next 5 years and is more consistent on polish, I think their next big game could get into a similar range.
kek
I am starved for classic turnbased gameplay on both the JRPG and WRPG front
Then you won't get it with Expedition 33.
This is NOT a classic turn-based game, this is very much a real-time action game that just happens to progress in turns.
Ah, fresh, delicious cope
The level design is fine
narrow corridors: the game
the UI is great
it's actually very ugly bastardized take on Persona UI, and completely out of place in a realistic art style
the enemy design is unique
bastardized soulslop designs is not unique lol. Even health bars are copied.
the art style is expressionist
you can call it whatever you want. It looks like every other default UE5 game. Aka ugly realism.
combat doesn't have QTEs
Did you even play the game, shill? What about attacks and parries?
This is NOT a classic turn-based game, this is very much a real-time action game that just happens to progress in turns.
reminds me of the same retard that calls ATB "NOT ACKCHUALLY TURN BASED"
Answer the question, faggot.
How is it a turn-based game when you are required to master real-time mechanics in order to beat it?
I'm making a game in a new studio with like 10 people.
They were 5 when they recruited Lorien
the central, defining feature of this turn based combat is that it's not turn based
whoa
It's what organic word of mouth actually looks like.
the UI is great
I don't care about anything else you said, you're a fucking retard.
you can call it whatever you want. It looks like every other default UE5 game. Aka ugly realism.
No it doesn't.
Say it.
IT'S NOT TURNBASED
Why don't poos play games?
AAAAAHHHHH SQUEENIXBROS IT KEEPS PEAKING
ATB is more turn-based than this slop is.
In ATB you have the traditional gameplay of selecting commands from a menu in order to fight. It just so happens that your turns overlap with those of the enemies.
In E33, the actual menu commands are meaningless because the main thing they want you to be doing is dodging and parrying enemy attacks in real-time. If you can't do that, you take colossal damage and you die and you lose the game.
Is Paper Mario 64 turn based
I might buy once I clear some of the games I'm currently playing.
I don't think there's a single aspect of it that isn't somehow excellent.
The combat is dogshit.
Its just the resident Rebirth schizo being mad over turnbased games doing well, pay him no mind
hit the team view menu, select gustave, navigate over to "wardrobe" then you'll see a hair and outfit selection
In E33, the actual menu commands are meaningless because the main thing they want you to be doing is dodging and parrying enemy attacks in real-time. If you can't do that, you take colossal damage and you die and you lose the game.
why are you lying? I managed maybe a 1 parry out of 5 and I beat the game.
Yes.
You can play the entirety of any Paper Mario 64 or TTYD without guarding or superguarding at all, it's just a bonus.
Whereas in E33, if you can't dodge and parry, you can't beat the game. Even on the easiest difficulty many people are finding the system to be overly brutal.
Did i somehow miss out on the white uniforms before fighting this guy?
I explored pretty much every nook and cranny.
It's actually not necessary at all, as evidenced by existing footage of people beating superbosses without using them.
youtube.com
You are going to spend the next 5 minutes moving the goalpost so I accept your concession in advance.
that's not what the game looks like
Its deluxe edition
So what have we learned? Shilling works.
WOW LOOK, SOME SWEATY DIFFICULTYFAG ON YOUTUBE MANAGED TO DO IT THEREFORE ANYBODY CAN!!!
No, retard. The casual ordinary player is not going to be able to pull that shit off.
If you're coming at this game from being mainly a player of classical turn-based JRPGs, the likelihood is you're going to get steamrolled and have a bad time.
That looks great too
Cool.
Yes it is.

Actually the really interesting part of E33's success is that it wasn't shilled at all. Basically nobody knew what this game was until it came out, then people started playing it and liking it and word of mouth spread from there.
Feel free to explain why (you can't) but dying on the UI hill doesn't make you look any less retarded.
Imagine being bad at videogames.
People on Anon Babble don't know what the fuck they want.
90% of the time this board is (rightfully) complaining about games being changed to suit the tastes of the "modern audience".
But when it comes to the E33 discourse, Anon Babble suddenly is in majority support of completely changing the turn-based JRPG genre to insert Soulslike combat elements and remove "anime tropes" so that it can appeal to more normalfags.
LMAO

I like having a bit of difficulty in my JRPGs, just a tiny bit, SMT tier is fine. Etrian is too spicy.

Game genre changes due to shareholders and market research trying to suit the tastes of the """modern""" audience
Becomes bad
People say this is bad
Game genre changes to add things the developer thinks would be fun because he has a vision of what he wants
Becomes good
People say this is good
It's really not that hard to understand.
Imagine the shame you would feel if your son spent all his time sperging out about a video game on a Laotian pixel art forum in order to defend the honor of grorious nippon, a country he will never go to and a people who would shun him if they ever met him.
If you're coming at this game from being mainly a player of classical turn-based JRPGs, the likelihood is you're going to get steamrolled and have a bad time.
There are tons of Pictos for just tanking shit, that strictly wouldn't be in the game if the devs demanded you engage only in parries/dodges.
So a bit of exploration and customisation solves that problem. It obviously isn't thrown at you early because they want people to at least try and engage with the intended system.
Still happens a lot even on non-RPGs. Ubisoft wanted that BTA PoP that released recently to reach 5m (!) and will most likely never get another project even though it did decently because of this. Not surprised the director jumped ship as soon as he could desu
>Game genre changes due to shareholders and market research trying to suit the tastes of the """modern""" audience
That is literally what has happened here though.
The devs saw that the best-selling RPGs of recent times are Soulslikes (look at how well Elden Ring did with normalfaggots). So they copy-pasted Soulslike elements into a turn-based game and, voila, it sells.
>Game genre changes to add things the developer thinks would be fun because he has a vision of what he wants
>Becomes good
>People say this is good
And what about those of us who DON'T like the changes?
What if I think E33's combat is absolutely terrible and I have zero desire to play it?
If this leads to other RPGs copying its combat system, then me and others who feel like me are left out.
I love JRPGs and I can tell your favourites are like Xenoblade 2, Gaysona and other stereotypical shit rather than basedkino like Vagrant Story, Lost Odyssey or Shadowhearts. You have shit weeby tastes simple as. You're bottom of the barrel.

Rebirth's legacy is Cait Sith getting a remake in an era where gamers want to fuck smug shortstack cats and him flipping from least popular to most popular

Baldurs Gate 3 and Elden Ring
I'm just glad a good game is getting the success it deserves.
It almost never happens, which is how you KNOW something really fucking suspicious is going on here.
People keep saying "word of mouth" but it's not reflected with any uptick in discussions about the game itself. If anything the actual hype is dying down and I'm starting to see more people complain about how overdramatic the praise for this game is.

It's not that deep. It's a very long game, just like BG3, so streamers will be playing the game for longer. The longer they play the more the player count will increase. Once all streamers have played the game it will die off.

it looks good
there hasnt been a single bad/mediocre song the entire time
the female characters are pretty

Why that game in particular?
This is so botted.
This game has to be in 2 million in sales right
No one on Anon Babble has reaction times under 1000ms
I just want to see nomura cry and a turn based, silly FF
Why would a Soulslike game with real-time parrying and dodging inspire Square to make another turn-based game? Your logic makes no sense.
It's 7 million actually.
...AC Shadows, that is.
They would've announced it if it was.
I have already posted about the only black guy in E33 dying within an hour of the game started over 600 times on Anon Babble and yet people keep calling it woke. How many more times will I have to repeat myself?

OH WOW WHAT HAPPENED LOOK ITS THE MOST PLAYERS EVER!111
paid literal millions for soulless shills to play their game and advertise it
Yes, it flopped, we know (and caused it)
still no counter-argument
Just admit that you don't actually like turn-based games at this point.
I don't think there's a single aspect of it that isn't somehow excellent.
Posts like this are incredibly suspect. I don't think there's a single aspect of it that is excellent.
Seriously I'm 5 hours in and so far it's OK,even good. But excellent? What's excellent about it? The south park game by obsidian was more captivating. This is very much OK so far. The characters are very flat and understated.
>OH WOW WHAT HAPPENED LOOK ITS THE MOST PLAYERS EVER!111
Even that is a lie.
Its peak playercount is impressive, until you compare it to other WRPGs.
Steam is THE platform for WRPGs. So it's no surprise for Clair Obscur to be succeeding there. But most huge games in the genre reach at least 200k concurrent players. This is still extremely far off that number.
Even Starfield, which was widely regarded as a horrific flop, reached over 300k concurrent players.
Don't bother, it's a shitposting point for Fatlas and Stillbirthfags. It's the same shit as "shill" "astroturf" "psyop" "no one's discussing the game!!", etc.
Shills are overplaying their hand desu.
They aren't content with just saying "the game is great" or even just "the game is GOTY", they have to overdo it by saying "it's the best RPG of all time" and other nonsense.
It's just turning more and more people off the game. We see the overdone praise and think "WTF?! That game isn't better than legendary classics like Final Fantasy X or Persona 5, what are they talking about?"
deserved. it's a cool as fuck game
legendary classics
like Final Fantasy X
or Persona 5
Game is the closest to FF17. People want turn based ff games not weeb games
He actually named P5
Lmao. Fatlas blobs really can't help themselves.
Is it good? I dont buy games before asmongold plays them
Very suspicious. Inorganic. Astroturfing?
wow look at me, i'm le epic contrarian!
those games which are widely considered the best of all time? well i think they're SHIT!!!1
How original. Lemme guess, you also think Ocarina of Time is "overrated"?
People want turn based ff games
Then maybe they should show that by buying actual turn-based games, not Soulsslop with dodging and parrying mechanics.
Persona 5 is, to this day, the best definition of a "style over substance" game.
FFX was okay.
>those games which are widely considered the best of all time?
By whom?
no
By people who actually like JRPGs.
Bros...
New peak again...
If you love this game so much shouldn't you be playing it rather than staring at graphs?
Sandfall interactive are paying me 1000 USD per post to praise this game on Anon Babble. Needless to say I am now a multimillionaire solely due to this venture. Gamer grindset like a BOSS!
yeah i'm surprised, i didn't expect it to peak again after some of us finished the game, i know we're in the minority of no-life degenerates but still
This explains all the shilling. Nobody in this thread has even beaten the game.
if you hate this game so much shouldn't you be in some other thread?
I don't give a shit if you've loved turnbased games all your life, if you support this shilled garbage I want you to hang with the rest
If I wanted to make a Anon Babbleeddit approved list of the best RPGs ever it would be:
Chrono Trigger
Suikoden II
some random PS2 game like Shadow Hearts
Etrian Odyssey
maybe Xenoblade to get the tendies on my side but I have to specify the first one on the Wii
Listing FFX and Persona 5 is begging to be laughed at
So tasteless retards?
Indeed, tasteless retards.
Persona 5 is far superior to this game in characters, story, UI and combat.
This plays like a JRPG lite. There's very little strategy and less variance. This is more comparable to a FF game and granted the quality of those games is iffy at best, but I don't think this compares to the best FF has to offer.
I am.
People only bought AC shadows because they mistook it for Yasuke Simulator.
Show us a screenshot of where you are right now in the game.
STOP THE COUNT
NOBODY IN THIS THREAD HAS BEATEN THIS FORTY HOUR RPG WITHIN A WEEK
You're really reaching into the depths of cesspools for these arguments
E33 shill lets slip again that he actually hates JRPGs
You people really can't help yourselves can you?
I have not seen this at all. But I have seen people praising the game as second coming for JRPGs when we had Rebirth last year and Persona 5 Royal a couple of years before
40 hours is extremely light for a "J"RPG.
If you're spending most of your free time playing it you'd have definitely polished it off by now.
And if you beat it after forty hours he will claim that you are praising the game because of sunk cost fallacy.
tourist actually can't stop gargling on metacritic cock
nu-neo-v is amazing
calling every JRPG series from Persona to Trails to Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy,
I mean, all of them are trash compared to E33. There are no lies found there.
That's how you know the people playing this aren't JRPG fans.
To be honest, I'm at 50 and I haven't cleared 100% of the game yet.
How would you know? You haven't played any of those series.
So if you haven't beaten the game you're allowed to blindly praise it and attack everyone who brings out the flaws of the game. Got it.
Oooor people just dont like your slop, Ubitroon
Just found a mime in the field and got the meme outfit.
We can't stop winning french bros. I bought the game 2 days ago.
Ass creed was provably botted
You have retards like this that think they're fighting against woke devs with this game still that really don't help the problem described here at all
E33 is literally made by ex-Ubisoft devs, retard.
5 years ago you were shitting on Ubisoft while these EXACT SAME DEVS were working there!
stealing screenshots from google
Why are E33 shills unable of honesty?
120k with a constant shilling by haired jeets
Lmao. Flop of the year.
Chrono Trigger sucks. The combat is braindead easy and the writing isn't anything special.
Also, i am on the Epic store so i don't even count in the steam player count.
blindly praise it
As opposed to the blind bashing the game gets on here from shitposters? I've yet to hear one credible flaw to the game from them.
I've yet to hear one credible flaw to the game from them.
The dodging and parrying system is garbage and doesn't belong in a turn-based game.
its a french game
made by french people
they're calling it a jrpg
most people seem to be calling it a jrpg too
for the life of me, I can't figure out where french japan is. can someone help me? is it like quebec, where they consider themselves completely different from the rest of the country?
first track is very good
What the fuckies?
That sale chart broke minds into an irreparable state
Was there a thread? Did I miss the meltdown?
there should be a concentration camp for E33 retards
Why do people care so much about shit like this?
Shadow Hearts
I'm playing this one and I have to disagree, despite it being on the ps2 it barely looks better than Koudelka, not to mention its story quality/writing is way worse than Koudelka's.
100k players
You said it sold millions?
no because shills need to be called out and ridiculed
You discord troons are transparent
Oh look. It's another salty FF millennial faggot seething about this game. Your series has been total dogshit for 20 years and this game is your wake up call.
but i pwayed it on my ps1 when i was 7
Nobody gives a fuck kys fucking millennial scum
shut up nazi
why is this game so ugly
More like cope of the year, resetrannie
The number went up again
HURRY, CALL IN THE DISCORD SISTERS WE NEED A MEETING IMMEDIATELY
Your shilled trash flopped and Rebirth stays the future of the series.
Because i'm (somehow) playing it on 1660S on high/mid settings.
dilate, troon. This troon game flopped, deal with it.
Why does it not belong in a turn-based game? It allows for interactivity from the player even during an enemy's turn.
meanwhile barry relentlessly spams bots in every E33 thread for 10 days straight because he's seething so hard
best of all time
normalfag recency bias is incredible
it deserves all the praise it's getting
#1 indicator of a shill post
Last year you lost to Metaphor. Time to lose to E33 this year (:
Your series is dead irrelevant trash
because its a wrpg
Here are some actual flaws:
balance on Expert is off, too difficult in the early game and too easy in the late game
some of the animations are AA quality
some clipping
Verso's English VA is noticeably worse than Gustave's
Esqie humour doesn't land the way Gestrals' does (subjective)
E33 is my personal GOTY btw.
Those numbers are gonna go WAY WAY up with Remake releasing on Switch 2 as well.
A lot of Japanese who are handheld-only gamers are gonna be playing it for the first time.
it deserves all the praise its getting
probably the one time in his life he's actually been useful for something
look at the players
Why should I care?
It's a FRPG.
still polishing up some optional stuff, myself. got a couple optional dungeons left and to polish up the collectables to completely finish up.
I fucking DESPISE the term JRPG and will forever resent that it got popularized from being a snide insult to my favorite type of game, like calling it a fake RPG. If Clair Obscur's success can put even the smallest dent into to use of that godawful terminology among the general public it'll be worth its weight in gold a million fold
jesus christ
Based. Frog shills are totally in shambles.
it's also on fucking gamepass
This game is quite popular
gamepass
ah so it is a flop
Yoshida...
And if I dont?
So is Oblivion Remastered and so was Starfield and they both peaked significantly higher than E33 on Steam.
"The lady doth protest too much, merhinks"
You'll know if you love it 60-90 minutes in if you want to play it safe with a refund.
4 niggas in a row gameplay
I played SMT Strange Journey and Devil Survivor, both superior to SHITsona and they don't hold a candle to E33 even though they were good game for the time I played them. Dragon Quest IX also isn't close and I enjoyed that a lot. From the writing to the graphics and actual engagement with the game itself, 4 niggas in a row just can't compare. I can play any 4 niggas in a row game while half asleep, if I try that with E33, I'm getting oneshotted.
I have no trouble ignoring how absolute dogshit the E33 following is as long as I can get an own in on FF schizos
When you get shit on for liking E33 even though in your head you don't hate all JRPGs this is the real reason why it's happening, because you're too fucking stupid to understand what's going on
Let me just infodump a bunch of popular games I obviously didn't play to shill my trash
You rats are so fucking disgusting.
Same thing when you tell any liberal to shut up. Laugh and ignore.
trans blade flopped
this shit flopped as well
When was the last time Anon Babble shilled a game that was actually successful and not a flop?
And cost like 10x. This game made more profit than Shartfield.
4 niggas in a row just can't compare. I can play any 4 niggas in a row game while half asleep, if I try that with E33, I'm getting oneshotted.
That's the problem.
This game is masquerading as a traditional turn-based JRPG when it just isn't that, AT ALL.
Also if you think difficulty is the main thing that determines a game's quality, you're a pleb.
HEY
YOU STILL DON'T OWN CLAIR OBSCUR EXPEDITION 33?
WHAT ARE YOU WAITIN' FOR, BETHESDA TO MAKE ONE?
YOU HAVE SEEN THE SALES, RIGHT?
Slop Obscure will never compare to real jrpgs
Strange, but makes sense when you think about it. There was a somewhat big number of people waiting for it like me from the very announcement, but it wasn't really popular. Now that it's out, and turned out to be a good game, new players are coming, seeing reviews by both journos and players, and that their friends are playing too.
Sure sure, wont change how obvious you are tho.
Why should I care about sales or popularity?
Now that it's out, and turned out to be a good game, new players are coming, seeing reviews by both journos and players, and that their friends are playing too.
It's the same normalfag audience that jumped on games like Elden Ring and BG3.
non-diverse studio makes a hit
trannies, kikes and jeets lose their shit
Japs love it
There's way too many cutscenes in the game to the point that most of your playtime is spent watching a boring movie.
There is no strategy in combat. All the strategy is done outside of combat and in combat you'll just be going through the motions or just straight up one shotting everyone on the first turn.
All the side content is incredibly boring and horribly balanced because the damage cap gets removed ENTIRELY.
The story is not that good, the outside world is not expanded at all and the story in a nutshell is just a retarded family fighting in VR.
everything...is...le...politics
Did Trump or Elon mention the game? No? Then it is irrelevant to culture war
This game is by a literally who studio and a completely new IP, really dumb comparison to make
No they don't.
french troons
non-diverse
Kek, lmao even.
KEK how fake is this shit?
the day before yesterday
It doesn't say that on Twitch streams, tard.
watch a stream and save yourself some money, retard
He's about to fight the paintress btw
All of those games are in 3DS and DS which I played a whole lot, faggot.
It's not "difficulty" in itself imo, that's why I said "engagement" instead, because some of the bosses might not be that hard in E33 but I have to be awake still if I want to beat them. I know the superbosses of SMT games can be a tedious and hard grind, but that's not the majority of the game, I can clear the majority of story of all those 4 niggas in a row games while half asleep.
Perhaps. It's better if they jump on good games like ER, BG3 and E33 than on actual normalfag games like CoD, Fifa or GTA. Not that they won't jump on those, of course, but at least they sponsor our good games.
Japan lost to EuroGODS once again. It's like a third nuke to the face.
This game is by a literally who studio
It's made by ex-Ubisoft developers with millions of dollars in funding and marketing from Microsoft.
No you didn't. Stop hiding behind actually good JRPGs to pretend E33 is anything other than slop, it's unsightly.
Same reason why people don't call dark souls or Elden ring a JRPG.
Because nowadays it doesn't really mean a RPG game made in Japan but more a of a structure, set of tropes, themes, etc. that most JRPG shares in common.
man this game really does have just the worst fans imaginable lmao
I don't know what this game is or why I should care
another turn-based jarpig
I mean okay I guess, jarpiggers gotta have SOMETHING to play since FF16 was a dud.
shit game loses players because all the people have decided to stop going to the freakshow
wow what a shock
Squarejeet trannies absolutely seething itt
I can play any 4 niggas in a row game while half asleep
Play SaGa, Enchant Farm, Crystal Project, and Bravely Default on hard mode. In fact, the way E33 lets you experiment and break the game in half reminds me of Bravely Default:
cast a spell which makes both you and the enemy deal 0 damage to each other for two turns
equip your dark knight (his skills drain your HP) with lifesteal gear
break the 9999 damage cap
set up buffs
blast away when 0 damage expires
rinse and repeat
so brainrotted he still thinks any of the backlash is about politics
marketing from Microsoft.
Oh, now it's all makes sense why all those street shitters shilling this slop all over internet.
Because nowadays it doesn't really mean a RPG game made in Japan but more a of a structure, set of tropes, themes, etc. that most JRPG shares in common.
E33 shares no structure, tropes or themes with the majority of JRPGs.
frpg at this level of players
yeah nah
This, it's obviously about it not being on the Switch, and about people not being able to like two different things at the same time (like E33 and FF7R).
Good morning saars!
extremely beautiful characters
flashy as fuck rule of cool animations
varied enemy design without giving a fuck about realism or practicality
fantastical landscapes defying the laws of physics
It has many of the core aspects of JRPGs. Except for the J-part of course.
It's over, it received the Macron stamp of approval
JRPG = 4 niggas in a row. Simple as.
Yes, it's made by a completely new studio on a tiny budget.
E33 is 3 niggas in a row, althougheverbeit.
nice projecting, jeet.
This, it's obviously about it not being on the Switch
I dunno why people are doing this shit again after all the games people celebrate for "not being on Nintendo" and then had Switch 2 ports announced.
Remember when Anon Babble said all Elden Ring criticism was coming from "tendies"?
meanwhile the president of japan still doesn't know what the rebirth sales numbers are
grim
FUNNYROOOOOOOOOOOOO
Those are legit except the last two, both of which are subjective. Vers and Gus VA are equal in quality imo.
I'd like to throw in that a lack of retry button is also a glaring issue I have with the game. Another criticism I have is Sciel and Monoco's lack of everything involving the story overall, I exclude Lune because she's my Queen.
What would Macron's stats be if he was in the party
It's actually more popular in China
overwhelming amount of negative reviews on steam is from china
what did the chinese mean by this?
this 100%
extremely beautiful characters
Too obvious, saar.
He'd never even be a party member. He would just die during the omelette du frommage like most of the NPCs at the intro
I exclude Lune because she's my Queen.
Based footfag.
can't indulge on his Anon Babble fetish because of the gommage
Bros...
approval from the current biggest cuck in the political world (which is saying a lot when the canadian election also just happened and also involved french retards)
pay the orange man tax faggot
Don't they always give negative reviews to anything that is not-China? Still, there are so many of them, you just need some of them to buy it.
Why is this thread full of angry underaged virgins who shit on the game without having even played it? Is this the state of Anon Babble these days?
>approval from the current biggest cuck in the political world
That's Keir Starmer, thoughever.
Are you playing on Expert? A 20% dodge rate doesn't cut it there unless you're one shotting everything, which could be true.
Another factor could be that people aren't leveling up Vitality/Defense at all for some reason, and then complain that they keep dying.
Good old Two Tier Keir
final faggotry fans are mentally ill
clean and nice, don't get mad jrpg fans simply this is better
Finally beat the game. I don't think I've ever been this conflicted on an ending before. I really don't know which of the endings was really the best choice. I guess it's kind of the point that both are wrong and both are right depending on how you look at it. I was originally planning on doing all the post game stuff afterwards but I think I need to take a break for a couple days.
I quit the game after realizing it didn’t have a single Trans Black Albino PoC character roasting Trump. This is literally genocide. I hope Polygon investigates.
Pezeshkian out of FUCKING nowhere
final fantasy fans are very upset at the sight of people enjoying videogames, please understand
Assassin's Creed Shadows
who fucking cares about that dogshit lmao
EVERYBODY THAT DISLIKES MY SHIT "GAME" IS LE FINAL FANTASY FAN!!!
Meds. NOW.
You're right. This shilling feels exactly like on Starfield release when this entire board was filled with jeets blatantly shilling the game and fighting everyone who didn't agree with them.
you should take them, ranjeesh.
I can't believe that I used to consider HSR one of the best JRPGs on the market. I gave its gacha system a pass because of the constant updates, which one would expect to cost a lot of money. However, E33 was made by a team of only 30 randoms, while Hoyo employs thousands of staff with over 20000 collective years of game design experience, yet E33 mogs HSR in every way possible.
E33 is proof that Hoyo could afford to make HSR the best JRPG on the market - but instead, they do the bare minimum while trying to milk their players for as much money as they can. To add insult to injury, HSR's money is being funneled to prop up failing projects like ZZZ while HSR players get fucked.
I'm a final fantasy fan and am enjoying E33 a lot. Then again I'm neither underaged nor a virgin.
This.
Hopefully they patch an option to re-cap the damage to either four or six digits.
There's a lot of defensive luminas not related to parrying / dodging (you get the "can't parry but get ap when damaged" lumina in Act 1, even) and you can beeline both a strong AoE heal and party-wide Shell with your first 3 party members super early, and that's before you start being able to use Shielding yourself. No parry / no dodge is def suboptimal since you'll ultimately waste a lot of luminas on defense, but it seems at the very least doable.
Jeets are going all out with the shilling.
STOP
THE
COUNT
However, E33 was made by a team of only 30 randoms, while Hoyo employs thousands of staff with over 20000 collective years of game design experience, yet E33 mogs HSR in every way possible.
I recently had the same disillusionment with Project Moon and Limbus. 50 employees, yet the director is somehow not only unable to make a real game on the side, he can't even keep a consistent schedule for the story updates.
Based
/our girl/ deserves all the love
I'm a final fantasy fan
my condolences
please tell your fanbase to stop chimping out over this game
Persona 5 is far superior to this game in characters, story
This isn't serious right? The characters in P5 are literal anime-whos that never generate a unique thought or character interaction between them. And the story is bloated garbage that doesn't start until its 80% (60+ hours) of the way done.
I got spoiled the Fairy twist by a friend and that ruined my mood to ever try that one. I heard Octopath was good as well, might try it instead.
The only JRPG that I played on the DS/3DS that come even close to E33 is Radiant Historia, and that one also has a lot more going than your average 4 niggas in a row gameplay while having an engaging story and characters, just like E33.
I beat the game yesterday and im supremely happy that this did well.
Fuck you Anon Babble and your tortanicism, not everything needs to be a flop retards
weebs have a melty because japan can't hack it anymore
Gacha rpg
good
lmoe
E33 threads
its either Lune or Maelle fags
virtually zero talk about Sciel
why...
This isn't about people wanting or even expecting the game to flop, it's about people seething that it's mogging [insert fanboy franchise here]
Yeah that's true. Avoiding the optional fights would help in that too.
They didn't fuck her
Speak for yourself
Sry i wont play it. I just threw 60 bucks out of the window for oblivion just to return back to skyrim again
cheese
didn't beat it
Persona 5 is far superior to this game in characters
LOL. LMAO even.
5fags (aka gameplayfags) and 10fags (aka adventurefags) love this game. It's 7/rebirthfags that are unhinged.
I don't approve but I respect your commitment, ToddGOD.
Sciel is eh. Lune and Maelle are also staples while Sciel is a bit more advanced to use. I think the vast majority of Expidition 33 players had their parties at Maelle, Luna and Verso and never bothered to used Sciel and Monoco
he goes on a tirade about past Expeditions
I thought he was taking the piss, but then you find the expedition log shortly after that confirms some retards literally strapped rockets to a Ferris wheel and tried skimming across the water to the paintress until they crashed. That is not only is that silly as shit, but it subverted my expectation by revealing that Gustave was just "uhm, ackshually" nerding out. I laughed. Love this fucking game, the humor actually hits.
I guess I'm not supposed to use any pictos, luminas or upgrade my weapons then. The true parryslop experience.
Sciel is okay, a little bit on the weak side, her 2 personality traits is being stoic and not being able to let go of her dead husband
Is he severely underleveled or just not using any luminas?
Figures that Japs can't actually play JRPGs properly.
Rebirth was a fun game, I didn't play this one yet but that is only because I'm still waiting on a physical copy. I hope it meets the praise it's getting.
You are aware that more than one game can be fun, right?
Where the FUCK do I find the damn orb that lets me go past 9,999 damage?
Ignoring the schizos, the consensus has been positive on Anon Babble, which is surprising.
They be equally assmad when it beats out that other nu-Cloud action game with the floating chinese dragon.
Do you think anybody at atlus is playing this game?
How is this supposed to affect my enjoyment in vidya games?
Pure contrarianism and absolutely nothing else. It is imperative that Anon Babble disagrees with reddit, the problem is that any game of high quality will also be enjoyed by reddit because it is better than average AAA slop they consume, thus making it a “reddit game”, which in turn must be hated on Anon Babble because it is imperative that Anon Babble does not agree with reddit. This happened to ER, this happened to BG3, this is happening with expedition 33 and it will happen with every good game in the future.
It is impossible to miss. Just keep playing.
You continue the story.
I use Anon Babble and reddit as some sort of lithmus test
if Anon Babble likes it
Its really fucking good
if reddit likes it
It doesn't tell anything
if Anon Babble don't like it
It doesn't tell anything
if reddit don't like it
Its really fucking bad
To this day, this has never been wrong
Is Sciel really that advanced? She's a perma omni-buff bot. Maybe you can throw in an attack or two in there, just spamming Luster Candy has never been bad.
made by a White only team
No wonder it is such high class product.
that Simon Says mechanic on Lampmaster
Pretty cute ngl
I have no idea why so many people seem to miss it though
original and creative story
game doesn't hold your hand or treat you like you're retarded
Can tell the devs made the game as a passion project, not because some CEO corporate overlord needed a fat bonus
girls are hot as fuck
It's not rocket science
ff7 convoluted plot don't stand a chance before this masterpiece
Beat Act 2.
I'm very particular about my JRPGs (I'm a SaGafag among other things) but somehow E33 actually managed to deliver.
Reddit games are elden ring and BG 3
Vtuber played it
I just beat it after putting all my free time towards it for a week straight. Absolute kino, barely any stumbles in the whole fucking thing.
FINAL FANTASY FUCKING 16 THINK ABOUT THAT "16" AND MARIO 100000, people want new things
Huh, guess starfield and the new AssCreed are good games aftell all, given how Anon Babble jeets shilled them here. Just like this slop.
People who watch vtubers do not buy games.
I like how Lune in the menu moves her hand as if she is about to insert it into my ass and massage my prostate
People see the stack / twilight state thing and seem to give up since at this point, most people found a "working" strategy in their team. I probably wouldn't have bothered with her if I didn't find the "get 10 stacks on any skill" weapon myself.
how will ubisissies cope now?
original and creative story
Whoaaa man this world is not real I've been JEBAITED!!
Dude my teenage waifu is actually a GOD??!?
So deep and creative.
I hate to say it but this is one case where I do think the shilling is organic and genuine. The game fucks
Those who eat shit every day and those who refuse to eat shit at all will probably agree that eating a nice steak will taste better than shit. Not a hard concept to grasp
That's what I defaulted to and many others I know also defaulted to that. The issue with Sciel is that she's a filthy slut gypsy and monster party members traditionally are never added in a main line up.
Exactly.
If you can't tell organic shilling from paid shilling (like every AC game on Anon Babble) then its a you problem
He's just bad at parrying and dodging. You can't really power through expert unless you're overleveled and using busted insta kill builds
I agree. usually the trolls counter the positive sentiment, but in cases such as this game, the positive veiws overwhelm the trolls
wife's been playing this since Wednesday
and I'm BORED OUT OF MY FUCKING MIND
the girls are hot though
she's a filthy slut
Hot.
moistycritical giving it a glowing review surely helped
Because this game is popular (for good reason), Synthetic Fag will somehow find a way to hate it
Most people are retarded.
Fuck that volleyball minigame. I still haven't beaten the last one.
It will win best music and best rpg for sure but no chance it wins goty.
So play the game. Why would anyone ever stop playing a fun game and stop to create endless shill threads on Anon Babble of all places. I mean if they were creating discussion topics it'd be one thing, but I don't even know what this game is about despite seeing a million threads
My one fear with this is that sandfall will never replicate the success of expedition 33, and this was sheer luck on their side.
Also, now that they will innevitably get injected more cash and their lenders will be more ubiquitous, they will crack under the pressure of expectations from investors and the public alike
The volleyball game is extremely easy. The timing is always the same so all you need to do is to look at the flying baby and once it's legs point toward the ground you press a button.
youtu.be
All the music in this game is great
If that's the one where you have to defect the attacks on the raft, then yeah, that shit was aids.
The other beach minigames were fine, the climbing one is kino.
seeing them dancing goombas at the top was worth the climb.
it's on goypass why tf would I buy it
This game came out like a week and half ago, a lot of people already beat it retard
I did play the game. I beat the game. And thus I am here to report that it is very good.
Those awful two clashing pictures against that awful cheese colored wall.
Wife
Doubtful but okay.
Post proof
Disagrees with Reddit
Tranny resetera and gamingcircle jerk are absolutly seething the game is not woke
My fear is that it's a one off and they just fuck off from the industry forever.
So I'm about the do the second Axom. The gypsy dancer lady thing.
If I only managed to beat the Mask Axom guy with a sliver of health, and 2 of my party members dead, how badly will this second Axom boss fuck me?
I'm not in control of how this house looks. If that doesn't confirm the fact that I'm married I don't know what will.
Could go either way
At any rate, their second game will be the one that will either make them one of the greats, or just a one trick pony
Still waiting for someone to upload the instrumental version of Aline
I can never make it time from one side to the other when he throws two babies in a row to the opposite sides. Aiming is ass too, I get the timing right but still whiff the hit all the time.
ok
As someone who ate a shitload of hits in visage, just make sure to beat the tisseur (the mini-boss that you can skip) in sirene and equip the anti-charm and you will be fine
stolen screenshot
Yawn. Is there anyone who actually plays this trash?
it's fucking over for trad jrpgs
reverse image search that shit nigger, you will find no match
retard
like others have said, it only happen when people are surprised by how good a game is and the word of mouth is taking a few days to fully take effect.
Same thing happened with BG3 and Elden ring.
Even here on release day the game didn't actually got many threads at all on Anon Babble, the non-stop threads took a few days to start.
AI slop
Theres been a push in the last few years to give goty to "passionate games" or whatever term you want to use. Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate 3, Astro Bot. So this will probably get goty.
She's easier in my opinion, her only annoying move is charming your guys, but the charm move is so easy to dodge because it's one of those three stage fart cloud attacks that approach you at a constant speed. If your whole party gets charmed you game over, but you can get a charm resist picto in the dungeon, I think.
I still think Silksong gets it.
It will probably get GOTY as an anti-Japanese thing.
Geoff HATES Japanese games as evidenced by his refusal to give Persona 5 or Metaphor GOTY, and his weird lifelong disdain for Nintendo that still occasionally shines through.
He will give this game GOTY because he's a vindictive piece of shit and thinks it will humiliate Japan.
Women(biological(XX chromosomes)) seem to love it. I know one who is a classic FF fan and one who is a Xenoblade 1 (she hates 2) fan, both of them can't stop raving about it.
well Anon Babble was still down on release day so yeah no shit
Silksong had its chance 5 years ago. The hype is dead.
its never coming out bro....
Why would anyone ever stop playing a fun game and stop to create endless shill threads on Anon Babble of all places.
This is actually a good way to tell if the game is being blatantly shilled. When the game is actually good people don't want to come to these threads and get spoiled until they've beaten the game. It's not organic for there to be bazillion shill threads in the first few days of release when normal people aren't even quarter through the game.
because its their personality
GOTY doesn't matter, not until 7R part 3 is nominated. Then GOTY will matter a lot. Unless it loses.
Goeff HATES Japanese games
sucks off La Creatividad at every opportunity
I have read countless posts across all websites from E33 fanboys calling every JRPG series
No you didn't. You read your own and your troonscord friends' shitposts pretending to be E33 fanboys and then samefagged as JRPG fanboys pretending to be offended. No one is fooled by your bullshit. Retard.
barry is the only person calling people shills in these threads btw
Will Square enix take anything away from this game doing so well? It should win goty at the geoff awards to really let square enix know people are ok with turn based Final Fantasy.
There are some weird party dynamics going on, only one dude and the rest are women.
Even just being the quality of base HK would still be enough, I think. It's really a 50/50 between these two though, I have no idea what else could even qualify unless Nintendo shadowdrops something huge but even TOTK didn't get much.
It's not being shilled, people just like it.
Regardless of what you want to call it, GTAVI never had a chance in hell. Red Dead Redemption 2 lost to God of War. The Quadruple A mega selling games like CoD and yearly sports shit never win GOTY.

This game plays NOTHING like turn-based Final Fantasy, retard.

Hates Japanese?
yeah it was the day after whatever, you know what I mean on the 25th 1 day after release very few people talked about the game on Anon Babble compare to now.
they could have sold more if they did action combat
He only likes Japanese creators when they make western-influenced games.
Same reason he chokes on FromSoft's cock.
When Japanese people make actual aesthetically Japanese games, he hates them and finds any excuse not to give them GOTY.
Silksong won't even beat out the astroturfed turd Blue Prince in the indie category.
I disregard your post due to you being rude and calling me a retard.
Sekiro?
No they'll come up with something absolutely retarded to kill the company even more
>BotW
Only won because it meant he didn't have to give GOTY to Persona 5.
He never even considered giving GOTY to TOTK in 2023.
>Sekiro
>Elden Ring
Westernized garbage. Not real Japanese games.
>Astro Bot
Made by a French guy.
Notice how he's never given GOTY to a Mario game. Too Japanese.
GODrry loves E33 because the Director admitted XV was one of their influence, which makes the game's success another victory for him.

Are you even trying?
This game did well IN SPITE OF the the turn based combat not because of it. It would have sold more if it was action based. You know im right.
Sekiro
Westernized garbage
Sekiro
westernized garbage
You mean the game that opens with a prompt telling you to play in japanese?
Sekiro
Westernized
huh?
Ubishart on suicide watch, and keep in mind Expedition 33 is also on Goypass wich has a hundred times more subscribers than Ubisoft +
Made by a French guy.
I forgot about this. Would be funny if E33 wins this year so. French made game twice in a row.
you're expecting barry to be intellectually consistent, a fool's errand
How does he keep fucking winning, bros.......................
Will Square enix take anything away from this game doing so well?
No, why should they? They already make modestly budgeted turn based games that sell well like Octopath Traveler 2.
Sekiro is like Ghost of Tsushima, it's a westernized vision of what a "Japanese" game would look like.
The average normalfag who played Sekiro probably thinks it was developed in California or London.
Baldur's gate and expedition show that there is an audience for turn based games.
Didn't they say they were gonna focus less on AAs though
lol
Didn't buy but I also started playing recently. It's very good.
he doubled down
pure retardation
Yes but that undermines my argument
Fair enough
Didn't they say they were gonna focus less on AAs though
To be fair, Square Enix flooded the market in 2023 with multiple low budget games each month that competed with each other. I think they released two farm sim games, too. They could slash AA output in half and still have a game each month.
KWAB, tranny
This thing reminds me of goobues from ffxi
