Expedition 33

It's breaking concurrent player counts again

Okay. The shitposting on Anon Babble isn't working. People ACTUALLY love this game... what do we do? How do we stop this from happening?

file.png - 1166x706, 139.43K

is this the first videogame equivalent of an industry plant?

i'm really curious if this game will have any longevity, it really feels like FOTM shit

ban steam charts threads

i can only pray that one day you are given the ability to play videogames instead of whatever this is
maybe you'll have 50 dollars fall into your favela

I 100%'d the game and am currently trying to decide what to play next. Just taking a victory lap over the retards who have been falseflagging and shitposting this game every day since release.

So they wont show Stillbirth numbers

Dark Souls but 4 niggas in a row

Actually pretty smart

Those tricky fr*nch bastards did it for once...

what do we do?

Personally I'm going to continue grinding to lvl 99 for the platinum and then hope they decide to make a DLC expansion.

Being a contrarian is not first-world behavior

why would you need to shill a game that's already exploding in popularity?

I don't see how they can release DLC. They'd have to specifically tune every boss to not die from 100M in one shot. It would basically require a separate area that has a new damage cap, which is possible but would require rebuilding entire teams again.

134,000 now btw. Next stop 140k.

because marketing is never enough

8 threads on the catalog

Buy an ad, unironically.

it will break 200k peak whenever asmongoloid streams it, screencap this.

Why are only bad games popular?

Unless they were dumb enough to get completely jewed by M$ on the goypass contract they're going to have enough money to do whatever they want. Personally I think an expansion going over the adventures, and eventual failure, of a previous expedition would be cool.

I 100%'d the game

didn't post proof of 100%'d the game

yeah whatever fag enjoy bumping your shitty thread for a year pretending that you play video games

People are cattle

I want a sequel about the Writers. I don't want a Lies of P situation where it takes 2+ years for a DLC to come out.

because most people have genuinely terrible taste

honestly, as bad as some videogames are, the TV shows and movies that people watch nowadays are ten times worse.

I know nothing about this game other than the shill campaign is rather annoying
Here's what I will do, I'll keep doing nothing and not caring
OOOOOOOHHHHMMMMMM

STOP THE COUNT

133.png - 1940x1218, 337.63K

TOTAL FRENCH VICTORY

135k now

Fuck off, retard. I grew tired of the constant falseflag posts pretending like people who love this game hate JRPGs and Japan. It is literally just trying to give this game a bad reputation on Anon Babble because they can't post a black character.

file.png - 1026x445, 764.78K

Give it till doom releases. Then micro shills will be talking about that.

Its a linear single-player game.
Of course it doesn’t have ‘longevity’.
You beat it, and then its done.
You stupid fucking mook.

going out of your way to photoshop an image to prove you played a videogame is kind of pathetic bro

threads went from excitement to buy an ad to flopped to it's just darksouls (even though the game is literally just a Mario & Luigi game) to forced success to chuddah shitposting

kino

that's a stupid thing to say, the witcher 3 for example had crazy longevity, even with netflix doing their utmost to try and kill interest in the series

give it one week

g-give it 10 days

g-g-give it til doom releases

holy kek

ITS DA MICROSOFT SHILLS

oh so it wasn't only FFfags, it was tendies and snoys too

75 hrs

Based fellow taking way too fucking long to do anything enjoyer

It's viewbotted

viewbot.jpg - 1612x866, 339.6K

I left it on while I went to work once :( but aside from that I did take it slow and enjoyed the music and atmosphere.

This whole thing could've been averted if certain schizos didn't shit up every Expedition 33 thread.

Maldavius Figtree's viewbotting goes wrong

this is somehow E33's fault

KEK really grasping at straws here bud.

every game I hate is botted

every game I love is not

Simple as.

THE VIEWS ARE BOTTED!

THE PLAYERCOUNTS ARE BOTTED!

THE SALES ARE BOTTED!

THE GAME AWARDS ARE BOTTED!

Yoshi-P sisters...

steam player stats are viewbotted

How smart of a shill are you?

true

Why is Anon Babble even shitposting about this game?
The devs are clearly weebs that love Japanese games and has played the classics.
Attractive women.
Nothing was done by the orders of the DEI cult
Anti-woke guys were praising it even before it became the darling it is now.
Cheaper than they could've sold it.
Passion project to see more turn based games in age where zoom zooms refuses to play them

I don't get it.

it's just kind of mid, the presentation is generally quite poor, the characters look ridiculous

i really don't see why this game of all games became popular, it's like the western equivalent of that remetaphor shit that atlus put out recently, just feels like random as fuck visuals that constantly clash.

Hint: It's not on Nintendo platforms and there isn't a more spiteful fanbase than tendies.

Some french nobodies mogged Square Enix and the schizos activated.

Anon, it is literally because there are a bunch of faggots that just are miserable shitposters that hate video games and get mad when other people enjoy themselves. That is it. They are ruining Anon Babble. This isn't the board collectively laughing at a failed game like Concord (which those people participate in). This is most people who played it loving it, some people not being fans, and then a dedicated group of retards who are desperate for every game to be concord.

i am convinced the same people who liked pic related like this game

567575.jpg - 2160x1080, 207.47K

game releases to massive success

Anon Babble has meltdown

every. single. time.

What shit posting? There is almost none about this game. Its one of the best received games on /v in ages

I liked Metaphor. I thought it had issues but overall it was a pretty epic adventure and it was fun to talk about and participate in threads. Expedition 33 is better though.

krauts hate frenchie game

it all makes sense now

Open World slop with constant re-releases to keep itself relevant. Basically the Skyrim formula with less modding. Most singleplayer titles don't fall into this category.

it's not even about the game
this many people are enjoying it is enough of a reason by itself to make anons seethe

Metaphor was alright but the story minus the villain was laughably shit.

Okay surrrrrrrrre its successful but will it be, a generation defining masterpiece???? hmmm??? how about them apples????

why do people make posts like this.

Anon Babble.org/advertise

Just the latest example of

IF YOU LIKE THIS GAME YOU HATE JAPAN/JAPANESE PEOPLE/SUPPORT THE NUKING OF HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI

file.png - 371x407, 68.41K

because i've read numerous posts from people online saying the game is a masterpiece, which it is not.

it got popular

It upset lots of shills on Anon Babble.

is this the first videogame equivalent of an industry plant?

Horizon Zero dawn.

It definitely is a masterpiece. I have to sit with the game more, but it is potentially a top 10 game of all time for me. Not saying it is currently. I judge games by how long I think about them after I am finished, and I only beat it 2 days ago.

Ackhsually it's only 3 niggas

that's a good shout, though iirc wasn't that a first party sony game?

jesus christ man

Two reasons
1. Classic Anon Babble contrarianism
2. Seething japanese JRPG fans

tfw want to make a thread comparing it to that one game that came out that had a massive multiverse pre-prepared for it but it flopped so hard and quietly that I can't find it anywhere and completely forgot the title.

lol the jeet is mad his rape souls game failed

Unknown 8 or 9 or whatever?

138k. At what point do the seething shitposters commence with killing themselves?

I just found out this game is on GPass. I'll see for myself.

It's not Anon Babble, it's a handful of hecking epic trolls who think being constantly contrarian is peak comedy.

AIEEEE i kneel steamchart anon that actually plays the video games...

it's not Anon Babble

handful of hecking epic trolls who think being constantly contrarian is peak comedy

but that's the average Anon Babbletard though

Unknown 9, what the fuck were Namco Bandai thinking??

That's the one! "Unknown 9: Awakening" or whatever it was supposed to be. Had a whole transmedia narrative with books and ARG stuff before the game even dropped, then just vanished after release when no one cared.

For what reason? We already proved the numbers are botted and the game is actually struggling financially. I don't see why I would feel threatened by a pathetic marketing stunt like this.

Be honest does this game feature a lot of niggers? That's a deal breaker on whether I buy or not.

why don't all companies bot their games if it's that easy?

Not everyone has Chinese backing like the E33 """"indies""""" do.

Maybe if you learned how to keep your shit in one thread instead of shitting up the whole board this wouldn't be happening.
Guess we'll never know.

Im liking the game WTF are you niggers on about

Tbf I do support the nukings, we shouldn’t have stopped at two, Japan would be better if they had been fully tamed

prove it

140k within the next 5 minutes.

only the Chinese know how to bot

I thought tendies shitposting was obvious, they do it for every game that skips their platform. (Which is many games)

>It's breaking concurrent player counts again

less than 10% gain

Yawn

a nog child NPC who is one of Gustave's apprentice

one of the copypasted NPC designs in Lumière is a nog so you might see him a few

the E33 roster features a nog who dies right as the game starts properly

You'll see some during the intro, which is between 30 minutes and 1 hour depending on if you want to explore / fuck around with NPCs, but once you get into the game proper you don't see them ever again

Tendrones will never recover from totk getting completely snubbed in favor of bg3

IMG_1815.jpg - 800x1061, 162.43K

The game features some black NPCs in the first 15-20 minutes. Once they die during the gommage the game's party is all white people except 1 asian woman (who is pretty).

spoonfeed my bad faith question

No. The connections are already well documented which is why they send shills into a frenzy.

The game features some bla

woke

Sciel is brown. Gustave is a dago. The others are frogs. It’s sickening. Where are the aryans?

this is being astroturfed so hard, theres no way it organically beat Metaphor

No indians in this game saar

??? I want blond haired blue eyed whites, aka the only true human beings

I'm actually more surprised at how well Metaphor did. It looked like a PS3 game, had no waifus (one of the main reasons why people play Persona games), and not set in Japan.

Toujours plus blanc que toi, mon ami.

It's like 10 times better than metashit

It's made by french people, of course it's woke.

if it was japanese it wouldn't get that much attention

and many fans of the game seem resentful against japan

Belgians mog CRPGs

French mog JRPGs

why are frenchoids so strong?

Look at all these woke french games!

french games.jpg - 1800x1620, 1.14M

arkane is very woke thoughbeit (and are now dead)

No, actually. It is just shitposters. The game devs jerk off Japanese games constantly. They all named their favorite games and every single one of them was putting JRPGs in their top 3 games of all time (Such as FF8). You're falling for bait. They have no ammo against the game so they just pretend to be "fans" and go "HURR DURR JAPAN BAD!!!"
Literally all I've seen in regards to Japan with this game is that they hope the success of it will get Square Enix to make Final Fantasy into ATB/Turn Based again and abandon this shitty fake DMC formula.

Frankish genes, unironically. Do not forget first crusaders were all franks.

They turned woke when they let americanoids enter the team.

the devs are good people but some of the fans...i dunno

Yes retard

I'm using a 2070 and it runs like shite. I'm downloading a new version.

flowers.jpg - 1920x1080, 852.59K

Suck my cock, faggot.

100,000 players

wow that was good, like 15 years ago

how do we sell turn based games in an age where zoom zooms refuse to play them?

by making movie game garbage with epic cinematic soundtrack, le stylish UI like nu-Persona, le sad writing like Nier, flamboyant character designs, same visual style as every other UE5 game, and hamfisted QTE where it doesn't belong

and flood the video game board with 80 threads about it

Kill yourself and this skinwalker genre too.

Floor is bugged and the sky looks funny too.

Look at all these woke french games!

games from 20+ years ago

lol

I really like Focus Home as a publisher, not many stick with funding double A games nowadays.

Name 5 new singleplayer IP that did it

the industry is dead so we have to praise chinese slop for pulling 100k mexicans

nah

Rebirth didnt win GOTY.
E33 will win GOTY.
Simple as.

this board is a performative arms race to dislike the currently en vogue game for the sake of getting (You)s. obviously Anon Babble is historically contrarian, so simply saying something is shit isn't really enough to bait people. you really have to get schizophrenic with it and accuse anything notable of being botted to get people to bite. this is also why twitter screencaps of wild takes get so much engagement here.

STOP THE COUNT!

file.png - 1223x775, 164.6K

Watching you have to gaslight yourself into thinking that a verifiably not Chinese game must be a Chinese conspiracy to descredit Japan has been my favorite schizo arc of this recent mental breakdown you've been having.

le le LE

*fart noises*

you lost

The truth is that a lot of people on Anon Babble just hate video games and will make up any excuse to shit on them and invent nonstop qualifications. In the end if you enjoy a video game and have fun discussing it, you've already won.
Always ignore Anon Babble when they shit on a video game and just play it, you never know you might enjoy it.

Starfield. An actual kino game made with soul just like E33.

xD

This. The game doesn't need DLC, except maybe more encounters in the endless tower since there are a lot of inaccessible canvases but other than that it's good the way it is. Writer sequel sounds fantastic, although the big twist of the world essentially not being real will not work a second time, but it might be interesting to transport the whole thing into the "real" world.

My retarded idea was to make a second game focused on the writers and humanize them (since all we know now is they caused the death of Verso) and then make a 3rd game about Writers vs Painters where somehow their creations come to life in the real world and you have a mixed party of the Painters/Writers characters having to stop them.

Metaphor had a great Antagonist and story at times but is severely held back by shitty formulaic game design. The devs finally had a chance to do sometihng new, but then shat out this uninspired mix of SMT/Persona with horribly written social links due to every character story having to fit into the same 8 cutscene template. And I'm saying that as someone who was really excited for that game.

verifiably not Chinese game

Funny how you roach cannibal marketers have to pretend some shitty chinese made game isn't chinese

write a great villain

the MC literally has no reason to win besides power of friendship

still kind of mad

STOP. THE. COUNT

Crit chance over 100% is wasted no?

not critting a crit

it really feels like FOTM shit

So you've played it? Or are you just "checking the cultural pulse" based of a ratio of how many threads you see on Anon Babble like a fucking retard?

The persona formula was refreshing in p3, perfect in p4 and started to feel fatigued in p5
Then came p3 reloaded and metaphor and those games just completely drag with the formula
It doesnt help at all that the SMT combat havent evolved in decades

I bought it via overwhelming hype, 10h in and i like it. I played alot games like this but this one is less cringe like other anon said.

I genuinely wish the game was just about the King's Game and you had to make decisions that would raise or lower your score and actually compete. It being some fake and gay railroaded bullshit kinda ruined the game for me. I'd have played an entire game based around it. Imagine if it had actual decisions:

Do things that are unpopular but are morally/ethically right, giving long term benefit but having an impact on your score now

Going for more difficult objectives raising your score but giving you the chance of taking too long and failing

Being creative allowing you to subvert different trials, but it really only working once

Having to give speeches where what you say actually impacts the race, not just on number of supporters but who supports you

Appealing to the crowd vs appealing to the rich elite

etc, etc.

145k

How did the French do it?

it's a shit game shilled by french shitskins, you can't refute this

Unknown 9 had even worse marketing than Concord, nobody knew the multimedia episodic series shit even existed and that was barely scraping a few thousand views on Youtube. Clair Obscur got the standard trailer rollout at every game showcase and got more attention because it looked more interesting. Take a look at when Unknown 9's Wikipedia article was first created, when the game came out, and when the developers got laid off.
en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unknown_9:_Awakening&action=history&offset=&limit=500

You're retarded

industry plant

I don't know what your schizo brain is conjuring up, but a brand new IP made by a literally who French studio with a few dozens of employees that would be deemed "not diverse enough" by the current zeitgeist is the last thing any corporation would waste resources on trying to shill.

Like the other anon said, Horizon is a painfully blatant case of top-down, fake adoration, while E33's success is bottom-up and organic. Whether the game is good or not, or whether you like it are whole different matters,

There is nothing organic about half the board's threads being about one literal who game.

Kek I don't think I've ever heard talk about Horizon IRL.
Meanwhile I was talking to a random poorfag at the local dive bar last night and they were giving unprompted, effusive praise to Clair Obscure.
Frogs may have unironically snatched the JRPG crown from Final Fantasy for normies.

i'm really curious if this game will have any longevity

play single player game

beat it

move on and probably replay years later or on another platform

Half the board is about it because the game is the current main release schizo war battleground.

I dont think I ever talked to a single person that played horizon

What industry would be planting it? I’m sure Kepler doesn’t have that much fucking money

release new game

it's actually good for a whole bunch of people

also it's low price/gamepass and pirateable so everyone can play it

they talk about it

What do you want people to talk about? The oblivion remake?

Kepler interactive is a literal who publisher and sandfall a literal who studio.
If only the likes of ubisoft have the cash to astroturf Anon Babble (confirmed) how would these 2 manage that you retard?

Is the bug here that I'm in the air or is the bug that I can't pass the invisible wall over the trees?

muh board

We're talking about a marketing stunt vs retards and schizos pissing and shitting their pants over a new game people are enjoying. Know the difference.

dude my new game is like totally popular you guise I swear look at these chinabot numbers

Buy an ad.

It's a bug. There's a bridge on the other side and it still lets you climb like 90% of it before said bridge is extended.

Its a good game, Anon Babble hates good games

people are just enjoying the game! That's why they're staring at lines about how many indian pcs are running a game instead of playing the game!

Everyone can see what you are.

Its a single player game, and lots ot people already had more than enough time to beat it

Im soloing the game with maelle and i just left the village. Is she the best character for solo or is the tummy tomboy card girl better?

You people are insufferable, imagine being this upset at people liking something.

Maelle is the strongest character in the game, with a party member you get a bit later being the second strongest.

HOLY BASED

yeah maelle having a stance that does 200% more damage is broken idk what they were thinking with that stance and all the solo buffs. People are just gonna break the game solo

I think Dueliso Verso with the bullshit combo stacking is probably way better, at least pre-cap. I'd even prefer to use Crit Lune.

Honestly I never got the hype over Maelle, I don't know what she actually does better than other characters - is it literally just because of her OP weapon?

game comes out

its really good

so good that people are calling it one of the best games in the genre

it's also only $50 and runs well on PC

"hmmm there's no way the discussion of this game could be organic"

I guess people actually like playing games, unlike Anon Babble.

Late game a party will 100% be better than a solo character, but in the early game a solo character with last stand buffs is stronger.

Well Maelle hits for like 50-100M damage once you get rid of the damage cap

They hate him because he speaks the truth.

But doesn't Verso get the same with S-Rank? And you can hit it in a single turn easily.

I guess the difference is Verso has to invest in Defense stats on a deliberately weakened weapon, whilst Maelle can just go all in on damage scaling?

Dude, this game isn't even in top 5 on Twitch right now.
It failed hard.

No, lmao. Legit spoilers: Once you remove the damage cap doing 1 big hit is the most important. Maelle gets her paintress powers and her void damage skills deal retarded damage. She is flat out the best character early game thanks to her virtuous stance and then late game cause of her void skills. Verso is the strongest in the mid game with the most multi hitting moves that can hit at or near damage cap.

nintendo games sell tens of millions yet nobody streams them especially on release. Twitch is a GaaS normalfag brainrot website

it failded... floppded... and suckded... its le ovur...

/Thread

You answered your own question.
Anti-woke guys praised it so the woketard of Anon Babble are extremely pissed off and mad because of that.

You'd be surprised but i guarantee you 100% most of the trolls, schizos and obnoxious shitposters here are woketards lgtbq type.
Mostly transgenders or queers.

Those people are awful, i used to sympathize with them, after i learned how they actually poison the well i started to hate them, they are contrarian by nature and very miserable irl so they spent their whole time on the internet and if you try to talk with them they get extremely picky and argumentative over little meaningless stuff.
Just a bunch of insufferable subhumans.

Twitch is a GaaS normalfag brainrot website

Yes, and it's also a good indicator of a game's popularity.
Wow Classic when it came out, had over a million concurent viewers.

blizztard

nobody cares about blizzard games anymore. Literal dead company. No wonder you are jealous over this game

It's not on Nintendo.

Shut the fuck up nigger. I am the furthest thing from a woketard and this is the most insufferable astroturfed shit I've witnessed on this board. The only benefit of the doubt I'll give you is all of this was actually done by woketards and east vs west falseflaggers to rile people up.

Me when i lie

You are brown

I just exited to desktop. Expect playercounts to plummet.

B R O W N

worried.jpg - 461x562, 190.61K

radical opinion, but i don't think people actually achieve as much as they think they are by doomposting on Anon Babble
like, i for one, don't really care that much about what you people think about games i want to play, so spending days of your lives trying to shitpost me out of my opinion is just a waste of time

how many indian pcs are running a game

Is this the new cope? Too bad Sony, Microsoft, Ubisoft, etc. couldn't even manage to do that for their own games, heh?

muh chinese bot charts

after lost ark and knowing 90% of that shit was fucking bots, cant trust steam player counts ever again

I care about Anon Babble opinion when its positive
Because negative opinions are the default here, so if something gets positive posting it must be stellar

subhuman white trash known as franks

over twice the AC shadows all time peak players

KEKAROO

It's almost like people prefer gritty, realistic settings and art styles over gay anime weeb shit filled to the brim with over the top performances and repulsive looking characters.

Nobody is botting single player games mate...

And it's on gay pass too

Fair.

brown hands typed these words

Its one of the best received games on /v in ages

that unironically means its shit then

FOTM shit

It obviously will slow down once people all finish the game but it will be talked about fondly. People dont need to adopt the game as their new personality in order to enjoy it

i couldnt care less desu

but it will be talked about

doubtful, unless a sequel is on the horizon

hamfisted QTE where it doesn't belong

hamfisted

file.jpg - 1217x713, 71.8K

you're huffing some serious copium, nigguh

A sequel is inevitable but people will argue about the ending for years

So china gave them money and that made the game good? Because i played it and enjoyed it before seeing any doscussion online

can someone explain to me why so many here hate on the game? aside from the massive shilling, it actually looks pretty interesting for a turn based game

nobody will care about this generic UE goyslop in a month, except your circle of shills, maybe

Ubishills our response?

It's popular. Kek

people will argue about the ending for years

i doubt it

There's no massive shilling, people played it, loved it and want to talk about it. The only ones obsessed are FFtroons and tendies.

It's a combination of final fantasy fanboys upset that a true successor to FF IX finally came out and is amazing, and people that hate everything for the sake of hating things just mad that something is beloved

you seriously need help

Anon Babble is full of faggots that just hate anything popular even if it's objectively good

I haven't played it yet but I bought it when I saw how assblasted it was causing Anon Babbles most cancerous posters to get. If it's even half as good as the seethe it's causing would suggest then it'll be money well spent.

there's absolutely nothing eye catching about this turd of a game, it's extremely forgettable and only shilled here, because frenchniggers are insufferable

Let’s just pretend there aren’t usually 20 different threads about the game and that the people shilling it aren’t the only ones bringing up other game series.

trying to own anonymous board of nobodies

you've got some top notch priorities in your life

Anon, is this your first time here? There are a group of people who just want every game to be a failure/flop because they're miserable. It does not matter if the game is Aryan Simulator: Nigger Killer Edition (Directed by Jesus Christ) or Kill Whitey 420: Goyslop Of the Year Edition (Directed by Satan). Both games will get shitposted about to death because this board has a vocal minority of angry, upset, depressed people who hate themselves and thus everything else.

You haven't played it and you're brown

objectively good

there is no such thing, redditor, now go back and kill yourrself

End your suffering, subhuman Anon Babbleskin.

i seriously need help understanding why people like this mid game

artsy french project

90% of the time that means some pedo shit so I'm not touching it

Maybe try playing it

i played it, which is how i know that this shilling is nowhere near justified, because it's absurdly mediocre parryslop "JRPG" which ugly realistic characters that niggers here pretendt are "hot"

I genuinely wish death upon every single steamchartfag

The MC is 16 and hot, but sadly you cannot romance her.

i watched an hour of the intro and it looked mid, i dont think having a controller in my hand while i watched the boring cutscenes would have changed much

See

the game is kino

file.jpg - 2560x1440, 220.5K

that looks woke

the only people mad over this are a handful of JRPG "fans" who are upset this game's success is racist toward Japs or some shit, and chinks who bomb the steam reviews of all non-chink games

It's popular but still sucks dick and is a 3/10 at most. Wow.

Almost done with the game, started act 3 which seems to be massive.
Loving that the game did like days gone with a new act despite the game feeling complete without overstaying its welcome.
Sciel is a massive slut thought, I fucked her twice, she probably rided the entire town and yet she still want her dead husband back, is she still romanceable after this? Should have went with Lune

Just like Metaphor right?

agree............

file.jpg - 2560x1440, 820.45K

Maybe people play this game because it's actually decent

tens of millions aren’t normalfags

Nigger. Tendie shit is normalfag shit

Go straight for the ending, leave optional stuff for post game

Mindrotted by cultural war

mindrotted by an obvious shitpost

No, it doesn't make sense. Just remove the damage cap picto when you do the final boss.

another anglo melty

people need to stop using the term FOTM in relation to singleplayer games, it literally doesn't mean anything

People play and shill gacha shit constantly on this board therefore they must be decent games.

turn based RPG

20 hours long

yikes

if people like a game it must suck

Retardation in the extreme

tranime

Cringe

It's like 60-70 if you do the act 3 super bosses, but you can definitely speedrun it in 20-30 hours if you just do the main story.

Unless you make a better game maybe get a life ??

Metaphor looks like shit and normalfags only cares about graphics

Do you not support the cause? These games HAVE to be stopped

you've got a lot to learn about this world, nugga
normalfags love eating shit on a platter

If you don’t care about graphics just read a book

You are a massive retard. Clearly an ESL thirdie, too.

I'm at 52 hours and I haven't even progressed the Act 3 story.

Young zoomtard you need to learn rhetoric

Metaphor is objectively better, also anime art style beats westslopp any day

Metaphor is pretty good but not better.

Fomo may not apply to single player but fotm absolutely does

Metaphor looks like complete ass. Not because of anime but the color palette is vomit themed and the environments are bland

Lotsa butthurt shills that this no name studio just dabbed on the whole industry and will win GOTY

if a sufficient number of cattle likes a game it must be good

kill yourself

Didn’t say that. Just called out your retardation that popular is causation for bad. Seethe retard

no u
No it doesn't, it's a fucking singleplayer game, it has no staying power by definition. People beat it and move on, that's not what the term is for.

Shit taste detected, die normie

Bitches don't know about splashing through the sky

There are plenty of single player games that have lasting influence and importance years after their release. Half life 2 is still discussed to this day. But say, red faction was fotm that is forgotten

As someone who thinks metaphor is good, you have already invalidated your right to have an opinion and thus it is discarded

That's retarded because these games are not made to last forever. No one cares about Half-life 2 for anything but the practical effect it had on gaming. The story and the gameplay isn't talked about at all beyond people wanting a third game.

Atlus literally published the biggest ironic weeb normalfag JRPG of the last decade with P5, don't act like you have higher refined tastes

ok sbi

I liked 33 more than Metaphor, but Metaphor is more replayable at least.

trannies and various other leftist child molesters...
regroup on the discord....

Why is Anon Babble even shitposting about this game?

The question asked for every single video game on Anon Babble

So many buzzword to say nothing correct.

industry plant

no that's astrobot

Attractive women.

????????????????????????

Nothing was done by the orders of the DEI cult

That's how low your standards are now. They won.

lol you too young to realize how half life 2 changed game design? Anyway a game doesn’t have to last forever to not be fotm that’s impossible and you are a bona fide retard if that’s your standard. Just has to last longer than a month. Look at bg3 a single player game that is pulling 100k concurrents after two years. Look at dark souls a game that massively changed how games are designed and spawned tons of copycats

why would I care about what the normalfags are doing?

Is there a better theme than this?
Might be top 5 among nost from every games to me.
Isn't the story very similar to Umineko?

this prove you don't need oversexualized characters to make good games

he doesn't know

Act 3

Go to place, die

Guess I'm not high enough levle, let's try a different area

Go to place, die

Huh, maybe this is an area for a later time, let's check elsewhere

Go to place, die

Go to place, die

Go to place, die

Go to place, die

Okay, this clearly isn't working - let's just finish the game

Complete the game no problem

Okay that was easy, let's give the optional stuff another chance

Go to place - die

Go to other place - die

Go to yet another palce - die

WTF were they thinking?

Those are extreme, extreme anomalies. Most SP games, even great, tend to fade away with time. It's just way things are. My all time favorite SP games have probably less than 100 players playing worldwide right now.

It's sunday.

because when drones like what you like and number go big = good, otherwise bad

shills/fans of it are annoying as fuck and just crying nonstop about Japan and "weebs" all day here

doesn't have denuvo

I'll just pirate it lmao
Now first berserker khazan, that's kino. Plus it has denuvo so it filters poorfags (on top of filtering skilllets)

kino.jpg - 919x586, 159.5K

The tower is a good place to start. And also the fake gestalt arena.

Khazan is good, don't use it in your shitposts faggot

tits too small

people are allowed to like video games you know

What turn based JRPG in the last decade sold more and held more popularity? Please don't move the goal posts and day Pokemon

Nah, my guess is that I'm doing something fundamentally wrong. Just saw some streamer doing 1 million+ damage on the same level as me - and I'm lucky if I deal 50K damage max.

lol you too young to realize how half life 2 changed game design?

I'm 33 and you're literally just confirming my point that people didn't give a shit about the game itself but just the design set-up. Only judging a game if it pushes or warps the industry is fucking stupid.

Trails

Popular is causation for good isn't a better argument. Kill yourself.

horizon was insanely marketed given how shit it really is, also won multiple awards

you know it's the ultimate normcore slop shit when RSD Tyler from the PUA circles was shilling it

You literally said people didn’t care about the gameplay dumbass. Thanks for confirming you are too young to know that what you are talking about

Square Enix has a very rabid fanbase on Anon Babble, more so than any other JRPG developer.
This single game just broke their narratives about storytelling, budgets and combat systems.

Bro your Maelle's Stendhal?

I didn’t make that argument though. sad attempts at strawmanning are always the last resort of the retarded. Sorry you lost lad

You literally said people didn’t care about the gameplay dumbass.

The point is that people aren't replaying HL2 endlessly because it's so great, you mega retard. It's effect is felt because of how it was designed but saying every game ever has to completely change the industry to be worthwhile is stupid.

Are you really so fucking dumb you can't grasp this?

gay anime weeb shit filled to the brim with over the top performances and repulsive looking characters

Weird, that's exactly what this game is.

lol, take the (You) retard

woketard of Anon Babble

those don't exist

this game not anime, retard

everyone I dislike is also group I dislike

Sad cope.

Not available on the Nintendo Switch® is why.

Simon>>>>>>Painted Love>>>>>>>>>>>>Clea

Use Maelle's strandhael and Verso's weapon that puts him at S rank at round start.

Then people playing this game does not make it "decent". Niggercattle will flock to shit like flies. Looks like we are in agreement.

you do realize that Steam itself displays player numbers on the community hub, right?

I didn’t say that don’t put words in my mouth in a sad attempt to win your argument. I said that makes it not fotm because its flavor literally matters today 20+ years later. Unlike other actually fotm single player games no one cares about for any reason. Don’t move the goalposts

Metaphor was worse in every way than SMTVV, except for maybe the story.
I'm surprised people thought so highly of it despite just being Persona but worse.

This game is every bit as gay as the series which inspired it (which is also very anime).

oh no no no.png - 250x250, 113.61K

Blown the fuck out better luck next time

HL2 has garbage ass jank gameplay. A million games from that era that nobody talks about in an obnoxious manner did gameplay better.

Oh so that's why this game is popular.

Didn’t say it was decent. Didn’t say anything about e33. Called you a retard for your absurd assertion that people liking games makes them bad and I stand by that. Retard

Still beats u ironically liking streamershill westsloppa

people actually choose Sciel

When will people learn that Anon Babble is never EVER right?

Not the argument try again illiterate

Can you even romance lune?

My bad, didn't know you were a second anon because you sounded exactly as homosexual as the other one .

There are countless games from 2004 I would rather play today than HL2. Games nobody cares about today. What does that say about your argument?

Netease gave Kepler 120 million and is a minority shareholder, like Tencent is in Larian. It's right there on Kepler's wiki page.

P5 alone has outsold the entire Trails series you pavement ape

You can fuck both if you talk to them during the same night.

I can't take this anymore, Anon Babble. WE are suppose to be the tastemakers. Why is everyone ignoring us?

Nope. Your trash lost. East is least

despite what shitposters will have you believe nobody wants original games to succeed on Anon Babble. A lot of people haven't played a new game in so long they genuinely believe the industry is going to crash and they don't even have hardware capable of playing a new game. So when a new game with some traction comes along they get fomo pretty bad and become schizos who think everyone who like it is lying to them.

The joke is of course that Anon Babble loves this game. I have never seen this much geniune discussion for a video game in a very very long time. The last time it was probably Nier Automata.

minority shareholder

"TENCENT OWNS THE GAME!!!!!!!"

Literally kill yourself. I own Meta, Apple, Tesla, etc. I am their boss.

Way to out yourself as a newfag who can’t even tell who is replying to him

It doesn’t say anything because again it doesn’t address the conversation that is being had. Why do you butt in with no idea what is under discussion? Very womanly behavior

It's ok being a whiny bitch. Just don't get mad when you get called out for it.

based and true! Keep it up!

He said jrpgs not VNs

both pretentious dogshit

What happened? I thought Anon Babble had good taste in games?

Where did your uncle touch you?

I dont want black people in my games

"but you can kill them! you can destroy them! annihilate them! they perish! black holocaust!"

Has there ever been a bigger glowie psyop in gaming? Listen carefully: I. Don't. Want. Black. People. In. My. Games.

I accept your concession.

Not seeing it. Tencent's strategy is to fund publishers to create games that are deliberately unappealing and self-sabotaging so they can increase their stake.

the placeholder

so they're going to make an actual good character later?

Both, P5 and Metaphor are objectively better than Expedition 33 according to metacritic, tranny

I am genuinely surprised that so many people like turn-cringe combat games. Before this and before BG3 I suspected turn-cringe fans were a niche group and were only getting smaller.

caring about journos

Jesus Christ anon

Sciel is a slut who doesn’t care about you.

How the hell does a single-player game that costs $45—one with turn-based mechanics—The thing that Square & others said was unpopular in today's market fit into what they're trying to "plant" in the industry that wants to make $80 Concords? Make it make sense dipshit.

how can a game be an industry plant?

Expedition 33 is only liked by Twitchdrones and casual normalfaggots, their opinions are worthless

Baffled zoomer lol. The minority is you

Metaphor got too gassed by journalists because of election fever.

backpedaling furiously

As if I care about the opinion of a journo worshipper

I don't get it.

It's popular so Anon Babble is forced to hate it

Genuinely one of the top 5 games I've ever played in my life.
This is my only contribution to the thread

It’s mainly Barry

not a Nintendo product

not a Square Enix product

is popular

That's it

I'd sooner trust a twitchdrone o casual normie before a pathetic journo. Journos are not people.

cough*

every single of my personal boogeymen is also simultaneously every other category of my boogeymen

There has to be a name for this disorder, when you genuinely think you're "fighting" one person online

Shilling trannies REALLY didn't like this one, chief.
HOLYYYYY

China hates it

I'm not afraid to say its the best game I've ever played
I don't think I'll ever experience something like this again, its a feeling I haven't felt since I played Xenoblade over a decade ago, and Metroid Prime almost 20 years ago.
I wish I could forget everything about the game and play it fresh

HOWEVER, have you seen dat ass

It’s very dangerous to the chicom narrative
