Metaphor Refantazio but the writing isn't neoliberal japanese wankering and actually well written

idk about that, but i'd definitely take another star ocean over whatever the fuck was that activist shit in metaphor

It's the best turn based JRPG game at least for the past 20 years and it's not even close.
This is not an opinion, it's a fact. anyone with at least semi average taste, who isn't a pathetic anime weeb and doesn't suffer from coomer brainrot agrees with this assessment.

The writing's okay but the story is retarded. I hate this pretentious bullshit every time it appears.

Metaphor but worse

We can see it

suddenly, because it suits me, jorno scores matter

what are you gonna post next, gamespot's 10/10 score of deathloop?

Nips lost coon ass nigga

Get over it

Actually the opposite of that picture happens in the game, they want to save the painting

>suddenly, because it suits me, jorno scores don't matter

they never did for anyone who isn't a tard

they matter for you?

nope. User score is the most useful metric.

people reviewbombing is the most useful metric

Whatever fits your narrative, I see

I don't. The Last Remnant was a much better game.

It's a jarpig trope. It was mandatory. It's not the best twist but it was ok. The reveal was a bit rushed.
The ending is divisive which will be debated for years which will help them keep people engaging.

Meh.

Elaborate on that statement. I have not played either game don't plan to, but I would like to know what a modern JRPG did to be thought of as neoliberal Japanese wankering.

debated for years

maybe 2 more weeks

give it one week

g-give it 10 weeks

t-two more weeks I swear

tranny slop

I’m so tired of shills

Don't be le racist, the vidya gaym

These chink shills are absolutely furious metephor took all those awards lmao

7/10, too much gameplay

Where can I pirate this?

At least this review is real. Unlike the vast majority of the user reviews from shell accounts

JRPG BUT IT'S NOT JAPANESE SO I FEEL IT'S SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE TO PLAY IT BUT IT'S STILL AN RPG SO ACTUALLY I DON'T LIKE IT

I AM A BIG BOY GROWNUP AND CONTEMPT FOR A VIDEO GAME GENRE IS NORMAL AND GOOD EVEN THOUGH I'M STILL CONSTANTLY INTERACTING WITH IT DESPITE MY PROFESSED HATRED FOR IT

WHEN WILL... THEY MAKE... A JRPG... FOR ME?

Wait until EX33 gets the GOTY and weebs like you start to melt in anger

turd based slop

they're are all the same game in the end

Games propped up with a pillar of bugs tend not to ilict that kind of reaction

is that why they dislike it the most?

that would be hilarious, can't wait to see the meltdown

This game needs to fail, badly. It's for the good of the industry. Even Hashino knows diversity is our strength.

Metaphor mogs the shit out of this game tho

Ubisoft fans aren't weebs, anon.

Ubisoft fans

Are they real?

why are metaweebs so angry? They made your game but good, be happy about it

I wished but nah.

but i-it's supposed to be ugly because muh art style!

holy kek

I wish I was as delusional as you are, Metaphor was the biggest disappointment of the last few years.

Why are frogs and FFcultists so angry?

My games looked like this when my radeon 580 started dying

suddenly, scores matter more than sales lol

You can tell Atlus went corporate because has the "over abused UI"

I like Persona games but I never got the hype around Metaphor (I pirated it). The world is so unappealing, and you can't even romance characters (waifuwars is like 50% of what makes a Persona game interesting). Maybe it's closer to SMT games (never liked these either).

no goty?

Flying Waters truly was the "gamers don't look up" moment.

Overdesigned pretentious slop

Yes, that's what Metaphor is

le character dies tired plot twist

lmao

Overdesigned

This would be very funny if you had actually played the game.

who said that?

you must have not been here last year

UE5 garbage

Wait my game doesn't look like that on PS5 and Performance mode...

:^)

I’m just wonder why you’re implying sales matter all of sudden

I wish I was as delusional as you are, Metaphor was the biggest disappointment of the last few years.

Overdesigned pretentious slop

kek it's funny because literally every criticism to e33 applies to metaphor, except in metaphor the issues are even bigger

waifuwars is like 50% of what makes a Persona game interesting

spoken like a true chink

I wasn't a fan of the painting world stuff. I think it made the game pretty pointless.

Implying i like redditbirth

Lmao, gooks cocksuckers are hilarious

speedgamer

chink retardation reached a whole new level with e33 shilling

Only FFags would pot kinos like Expedition and Metaphor against eachother.

does this game even touch economic themes

I've finished the game and the endgame content. Want to elaborate? I know the people in the painting are claimed to be "real" but no they aren't. They can be created and destroyed at a whim unlike the family.

but metaphor doesn’t look like a cringe streaming service show for women

delusional

Verso was right!!!

no he fucking wasnt, the entire story is basically just lovecraft bullshit but instead of gods you have these painter retards, if you recontextualize it in that setting verso just genocided the whole fucking universe because lmao im le not realllll despite not existing anywhere else and having the FUCKING POWER TO END THE UNIVERSE but i am totally not le reaal

ALSO
the kid bitch could have also just idk maybe just left that canvas alone, recreated a new one where verso doesnt know he is le fake and called it a day? could have had her perfect fucking world???

You played neither of them

*dabs on you*

It looks like rancid dogshit only liked by ironic weeb trannies on resetera and leftist game journos, probably because it is

my criticism for the game is... I can't get laid

How many of you have actually played metaphor

if you think the other ending was good despite the horror movie sounds, jumpscares, and it being black and white maybe you should stick to coloring books

They're definitely real. Simple fact:
If they mere creations by the paintress, why do they still attack her? Because they have agency.
It's exactly if god existed and created our world. We would still be real and sentient.

t. *tranny dabbing*

It's not lost on me that practically all of these anti-metaphor bait posts come from people that can't speak english

sorry ESL, I don't care about your fetish.

NTA but

I let cinematography choices dictate my feelings about a choice

Meh

you are defending a game that looks like a streaming slop for women though

hag rage

I rest my case

saar you say bich slandar I rape you benchod

NTA but you're media illiterate as fuck

>but metaphor doesn’t look like a cringe streaming service show for women

cell shaded anime visual novel

not cringe

they're not sending their best

The UE5 feeling really is the worst part of the game. Just the way the camera and characters move, the way the lighting looks, the overuse of particle effects, and getting stuck in the geometry really brings the game down. Still better than 90% of Japanese JRPGs though

none of the endings are good you fucking retard but just because le sounds scaaaary doesnt make it the better one

would you be okay if your mother fucking exploded infront of your eyes because some retard decided he is fake? then you died as well? would that be the good ending or just living as usual?

jap liberals are just as subhuman as western ones

I dunno man. If I play Dwarf Fortress I dont act like the dwarves are actually real when they disobey my orders. I can burn their world down and not flinch because I can just create a new world. Defeating the paintress and seeing everyone at Lumiere deleted just felt like a big waste of time. Killed the impact for me.

hag rage

I'm a man, why is it always repulsive incel spergs that hate women?

broken English brown retard wonders why people keep calling him a jeet

lol

I did but I gave up after the first dungeon with the Orochimaru looking guy. I thought that if it's the same loop over and over again, it would bore me to death.

Honestly the game looks so much better when you disable volumetric fog and depth of field.

but this looks like le streaming slop for old women so I don’t get what you’re trying to prove here

sorry dumbass, but people inside of books and movies aren't real.

it's okay if my mom dies with a magical VR helmet on and my brother's soul that literally says he wants to stop painting is trapped in hell forever at least LE PICTURES will survive!

Ironically enough a guy at Atlus claimed that he doesn't like games that look like they were created on a CEO boardroom lmao

That's the very definition of what metaslop is

Put Mario RPG gameplay onto generic UE5 grafix

Normalfags lose their minds

The shill campaign made a lot more sense once I found out the devs are former Ubislop employees. At least the music is pretty good

P5 > Metaphor > VV > dogshit > redditbirth > chinks obscured

Not OP but the entire game is essentially pro reforming an inherently broken system. Catherina's link might be the worst social link in Atlus history because its anti-communist arguments are just "get a job bro" even though a wage doesn't even allow you to afford basic things like rent, let alone food.

retard

ok tranny we know
how hard was it not to do you’re jeet impression?

Metaphor dabs hard on this shitty little 20 hour """RPG""", even Undertale has more content than this chinaturd

sorry dumbass, but people inside of books and movies aren't real.

except they are in the game you just fucking played you retard

dabs

This niggas stuck on 2014

except they aren't

y-you're a t-tranny!

you're a j-jeet!

Truly the only two thoughts left in the rotting mind of the seething Anon Babbleermin

censored to hell and back too

atlus troons are out for blood today

so why did Gustave have an entire personality,history, relationship and its own mechanic if he was just le picture
and if a picture can have all that, how is that any different from a real person?

Whatever fatlus blob

it does look like streaming service slop for old dried up used up women

Metaphor being better is not even an opinion. It's an objectively better game. E33 would not need an army of chink shills to prop it up if it was anywhere near the level the publisher wants it to be

used up women

Not by you though

neoliberal japanese wankering

Yeah, I could stand only so much before selling my copy. What a disappointment.

fatlus sisters? Can someone post a gamespot review score please?

tranimal

phase 2

You couldn't even bring up Metaphor in passing until a week ago without getting a torrent of shit about how it's woke and gay jew propagana.

It's an objectively better game.

Metaphor being better is not even an opinion. It's an objectively better game.

holy moly i thought i was on reddit for a moment

i like both SMTV and E33
metaphor is kinda ass tho

file.png - 137x108, 7.73K

this is a tranny streaming service bait for women more than a game though

Don't worry I remember the mountain of threads from panicking chinks pretending the game was woke from around release time that had 0 impact on its success just fine

Hang all chink shills

SMTV deserved so much Better recognition rather than that glorified turd

Hashino is an hack

a torrent of shit about how it's woke and gay jew propagana.

Yes, we know how desperate chinks and FFcultists tried to gaslight this game.

chinks

very weird way to say /vpol/tards

holy ESL

Set in "a fictionalized version of France", an excuse to shove minorities in there
Main protagonist lectured by a bitch
Main protagonist dies and is replaced by a teenage girl

Sorry, but the confirmed Reddit game is the other one.

Sounds like you wokescolds are scared of the truth

VV>Metaphor>P5>E33>>>>>>redditbirtg

Makes sense. I tried to play Metaphor and I uninstalled after literally 50 minutes of straight cutscenes.

posts like this make me doubt that Expedition 33 is even an RPG

game written by a literal redditor

OUR RESPONSE E33 TROONS?

Same. I am a fatlus, but I wanted because Metaphor to become less popular or even fail because I didn't want the "Persona faction" at Atlus to win over the "traditional faction" (SMT, Raidou). Now, I wouldn't be surprised if the next SMT is just a Persona re-skin.

Shill Obscur sees success because of a swarm of chinks on Anon Babble

hmmm

The dialogue is reddit as fuck. Typical modern Marvel drivel.

now in english please

Tendies*

it isn’t, that’s just what the shills are going with

Are you saying that to be an RPG the game has to basically just be a movie?

Like Telltale games have 10x more gameplay than the beginning of that game.

Trannies and FF ags hate it

It's because they are one and the same

It's funny because Metaphor was supposedly an anti-white game but every single person that shits on it here is some variant of ESL

Not OP but the entire game is essentially pro reforming an inherently broken system.

Thank you for taking the time. So, I take it it's about reforming a broken system into something neoliberal? Because I kinda associate neoliberal talking points with "we shouldn't change anything (but maybe make markets even more open and companies and corporations a little bit less responsible for what they are doing)".

can you give us a few examples

Quit deflecting FFag

When I started E33 I wasn't assblasted with expository cutscenes, you get a nice vignette that sets the Belle Epoque aesthetics then you can move your fucking character, get dialogue on a movement tutorial, and battle within 4 minutes.
You don't get an hour long cutscene to introduce the city and characters, you walk around and talk to them yourself. Or don't and just skip it all.

This sounds like an action game instead of an rpg so I'm guessing I was right

Why are you identifying as one of the npcs? They are not the protagonist of the story.

must be the same writer

Its got more RPG mechanics than any fucking Atlus dogshit nigger game because the build variety is more than "just equip the highest stat items and whatever nigger use the ultra epic lighting lmaooooo"

What's a game you consider to be an RPG besides metaphor or the Persona games?

I literally cannot empathize with others

Why tell on yourself?

Well he had all of that in a video game and he is not real to us, is he?

translation: yes you are right but I'm mad about it

They are not the protagonist of the story.

they are Gustave IS the protagonist until he dies and he isnt from the painter family

PS2 game sold at $70 + tip

The audacity

I empathize more with the npc background character than the ones whose story we actually follow

file.png - 1614x593, 845.54K

Breaking up cutscenes with player agency is good, why have a cutscene of the party walking through a location instead of doing it yourself? Play smaller cutscenes when you approach/interact with points of interest and NPCs.

why have a cutscene of the party walking through a location instead of doing it yourself

you never played metaphor

mind is liquified by woke thoughts

doesn't know how important tolerance is in regard the king's subjects

Almost like that is Sciel whole bit is to be so casual and chill in such a situation. Trauma dealing and what not.
She was fully content to just fight in that arena until the end if no one showed up.

It really becomes apparent the more they try to talk about it kek

JRPG but the characters are written like real people instead of one-dimensional, walking anime tropes

SLOP SLOP SLOPPITY SLOP

Kill yourself, opportunist tendie. Gonna blame falcom again now? Or Ai limit?

he is only really the protagonist in the intro before they leave, after that he is very clearly the foil for maelle until he dies to work as a vehicle to push maelles story further. Besides, he is already dead so the original post doesn't apply to him etiher way. The painter family kill him on purpose because he is nothing but an obstacle to maelle doing what verso wants and they say this outright at the end of the maelle friendship.

This...can't be real...

slop game funded by a chink publisher

not him but yea there is a cutscene for plenty of world locations where you just draw a sketch.

Oh hey it's that meme image from a study that Anon Babbletards misunderstood and keep posting out of context

That's every character and dialogue, not just Sciel. There is not a single meaningful thing conveyed throughout the entire conversation.

There are no good endings in this game. Both of endings are bad. It's just

Literally everything you've been doing from the very beginning amounted to absolutely nothing

vs

Main characters suffer and go nuts

Personally I like Maelle's ending much more, because the painter family deserves all the suffering and misery it can get.

Fooling no one redditbirth faggot

the party doesn't walk through those areas either because they don't actually exist ingame
try again

even worse. It's just a matte painting.

Metaphor was so fucking bad man it was like they put Persona 5 through an A.I. filter

they put Persona 5 through an A.I. filter

That's literally expedition shill tho lmao

if this game was released last year it would have totally overshadowed metaphor and possibly would have won goty, since it does everything better in every department

if it came out last year no one would give a flying fuck about it at all because you'd still be on 24/7 shilling duty for black myth wukong

they put Persona 5 through an A.I. filter

literally how E33 turns out if you put Maruki's arc through an A.I. filter

they couldve both fought over who gets to bow to astro bot

Got'tem

worse gameplay

worse story

worse characters

worse music

nope

THIS IS SO REAL JUST LIKE MY STREAMING SLOPPERINO

Well yes, me too don't like JRPG games after all

somehow the protagonist is still a teenage child who just happens to be super special and one of the most powerful beings in the world, not unlike other jprgs. You even fight the gods of this world as the final bosses.

streaming slop

new buzzword just dropped

What did japs think of Marche's story back then, and especially now that isekai self insert escapism slop is the complete norm?

As someone who played all those games

Bg3

Dropped it but because I don't like datingslop or "too western" for me

FF7remakebirth

I would have accepted them as ONE game and without the cringe jannies with is too bloated and the pacing sucks

Metaphor

I actually suspect this game is HARD shilled to spite on 7 remake (every thread is just comparisons and same arguments), since I remember P5 didn't use to be this defended and had a lot of haters, this was before remake and 16 (now that one is bad) existed so p5 became the focus instead, with ff7r they could use it to spite on it even by people who doesn't play it like when queen of Anon Babble they vote literally who waifus to spite on popular ones. Metaphor was ok, but it felt more like a weapon against 7 over anything, think of the simpsons lemonade tree ending episode

Expedition 33

Now this one is actually good by it's own merits and you can tell people genuinely love it. One of my favorite games with a really good cast, great pacing and a lot of future for this company if they keep the same passion. You can tell a lot of weeb love behind it and the fags are a lot better too, imo bg3 was just using the same crpg but with turn based which is why I couldn't enjoy it (not denying the quality but still) while expedition33 feels the closer to a real jrpg/old ps2, but even improved it and using basic shit like change the character and allow to use all your party

I'd just post the right image

STOP CALLING IT WHAT IT IS

nerve struck

worst game is good and not shilled

be more subtle next time

one piss retard is retard

Oh no anyway

what do you get from samefagging yourself and reposting this fake image literally fucking everywhere
look at this bot tier spam:

Metaphor was ok, but it felt more like a weapon against 7 over anything

the whole shilling for metaphor was due to the turn-based vs action schizo war that has been happening here for a while, as you said. If Rebirth was released this year, the same schizoids hating on e33 would be shilling it 24/7 on this board.

actually well written

the ending choice is just an IQ test to see if the player remember the existence of the writers or not

the source of all tragedy and events in the game, the Writers, get mentioned once and never again, even when the dad trying to convince his daughter to come back to real world, he can just say the Writers will come and destroy the canvas + his whole family but he didnt

>actually well written

Reddit shit

well written

You need to go back

doesnt realize I greentext the "actually well written" in the OP

reading comprehension + not understanding how greentext works

You need to go back

nta but you need to put double greater than symbols if you're quoting someone's greentext. You 2 can go kiss each other on r/Gamingcirclejerk, they're missing you out there

The hilarious thing is that se kept making turn based games and most jrpg threads here are just jrpgfags shitposting each other

Is this how newfag think this is how this place's ******rules********* works?
Holy shit, no wonder all old posters left for altchan

Now this one is actually good by it's own merits and you can tell people genuinely love it

Pfft

Not that guy, but walking down a street only being able to go 1 way straight into a cutscene might as well be a cutscene.

The game is literally:

cutscene of some guy killing the king and he's actually in the government wow

cutscene of some people getting attacked and someone falling down a cliff revealed to be PC

run to next cutscene

cutscene of going into the city

run to next cutscene

cutscene of some lady explaining magic tools

run to next cutscene

cutscene of joining army

selecting a place on a map

another cutscene

I quit at that point, 48 minutes playtime. It was nothing but cutscenes and moving to another cutscene.

How is it a bad game?
I like the reaction meme, retard. Not an argument
I suspect that is. Turn based vs action feels like a forced drama. Someone posted some pic of some vtrannyfag samefagging as both hater and supporter because he didn't know /8/chan had ids lmao
That's another thing, I don't see people talking about all the recent SaGa games, I only see drama, it's like they are pretending the Jrpg fags larpers were all frens until FF7R became the Lelouch or some shit, I'm talking about before 7 remakes and 16 shit even existed

Tales vs trails

Cuckfag ruining dq11 threads

Smtfags forever butthurt by Persona

Every other jrpg gets labelled as tranime or straight ignored

This is the definition of ADHD

This game is so kino

Elden ring.png - 1894x803, 1.48M

It IS a good game you faggot contrarian. Sure it has SOME shitposters but threads are actually great like the hundred line ones (ignoring the translation spammer), with Metaphor threads like 2/3 was of some autistic faggot talking about his exgirlfriend FF7R over and over and over

Ahh this is why you're also shitting up from software threads

the story would have been pretty good for a video game if it had ended when renoir destroyed everything in act 2, like right after verso drops the letter. unfortunately they decided to explain everything and dragon ball z the world.

shit writing

shit gameplay

shit music

shit graphics

athletics

shit characters

there I just confirmed it’s shit

Sure it has SOME shitposters but threads are actually great

Absolutely delusional
You also just sound like a complete fucking idiot too so these things go well together

Someone posted some pic of some vtrannyfag samefagging as both hater and supporter because he didn't know /8/chan had ids lmao

kek i wish i could could see that pic

If I wanted pure storytelling I would consume some media that is purely dedicated to presenting a narrative in that fashion.

If I'm playing a game I want to play the fucking game, not watch 50 minutes of cutscenes. I was expecting an RPG not a VN.

I kinda agree, expedition 33 mogs ff7 rebirth but the fags actually talk about the game while metaphor threads were constantly derailing to ff7 rebirth, it sucks because Metaphor was fun but good lord is the fanbase obsessed and the threads bad, at least SMTV threads were comfy

Totally original design, not Elden Ring carbon copy at all

but enough about weebshit

*shit aesthetics

Then it can join such deserving recipients such as Astro bot. Funny how nobody talks about that one anymore all of a sudden.

weeb shit but le real people

just like your streaming shows amirite sis

why did faggots now start using screenshots of opencritic scores? Nobody uses that shit site. Even metacritic aint getting used. That said metaphor is a dogshit game either way and looks 2 decades old. Both games got some horrid chara designs tho, but flatboard Hulk is just another level .

butt pound.png - 576x821, 485.82K

This is exactly what made me not want to replay persona 5. There's so much useless visual information being thrown at you every time, and it's even worse in Metaphor

You already had to stretch what "50 minutes of cutscenes" means like it owes you money to get to this point. Your options are admit you have brain damage or admit you have no attention span

Is gollum better than space marine 2?

That was early 2000 so people didn't feel as much need for escapism yet. Most stories were still about seeing the world for what it is and manning the fuck up.

Regardless of what you say it still starts as a VN not an RPG.

Metaphor was fun until it fell apart once you reached the snow city

No shit, modern world sucks so much even normies are Isekaing themselves in anime and other entertainment.
Escapism is triggered by young people lack of resources.

This never actually happened
The story actually kicks in once you get ot that point though which I can get being upset with if you hate reading

Someone pointed something interesting is that isekai plot was about escaping from that world to return to your own world while new isekai is you dying and get reincarnated in a much better world, kinda sad

You don't know what a VN is either
I couldn't live with myself if my brain worked like yours tbqh

Even gacha threads are peaceful with ids

Pretty much. FFTA ending was generally considered a good, even if ambiguous, ending. Same in Matrix, the Neverending Story, Last Action Hero, or even Narnia, going back to the real world was the norm. But nowadays, it's almost as if the media is trying to push us into the Matrix, that's not right.

how can one little shark mindbreak so many people

Sure if you're a brain dead retard I can understand loving "tell, don't show"

You have no idea what happened at that point in metaphor

well yes, I never played the game myself

JRPG but French is just more attractive than Japanese storytelling, sorry but not sorry.

Whenever someone hates an Atlus rpg they're always some kind of illiterate retard. Even when it's SMTV funnily enough

EITHER CONSUME ATLUS SLOP OR YOU'RE RETARDED!!!

Its weird how isekais used to be about trying to get back home but now its mostly reincarnation or just native fantasy (with game mechanics) so they don't have to use that plot device anymore.

how many times do you really need to be sold the same game?

atlus has pumped out the same game since Persona 3.

Assasinate Louise

Leave him with a gigantic hole in his chest

Refuse to call up the lance and choose to willingly go down and try to explain everything

Send a single dude to check if he is really dead and leave the same dude to deal with the body

Same dude also was able so swap out the real lance with the fake lance

Turns out the single dude that was in charge of Louses body was a necromancer able to heal all of his wounds and he is as good as new

This entire sequence was stupid

Writing is like the least shitty part of Metaphor lmao

Why would you have more than one person check if a dead guy is actually dead? Because you're butthurt about the popularity of the game you're in and trying to poke holes in your own narrative by doing things no one would think to do normally?

Cope

Why the fuck would they just let the body of the most popular king candidate and a kingslayer just be taken away likes hes just a normal person? wouldn't it be in the churches interest to secure his body to show the populace that he is dead and for the someone in the player characters party to check to see if he is really dead so that they can make sure the princes curse is 100% not connected to Louise?

You literally have to be a Chinese communist to call metaphor neoliberal. Which makes this being an Expedition 33 shill thread make a ton of sense.

And these people post here and gaslight others into accepting their unhinged ideology.

You're writing this purely through hindsight. No one has any reason whatsoever to doubt forden's attendant and what the sanctists want to do with his body afterward is completely pointless when that attendant could come up with literally anything to keep the other priests away from the body

And it has an Elder God Tier Villain!

all the E33 threads came to a screeching halt when the Anon Babble sticky for the pajeets bombing pakistan went up

not a coincidence at all kek

hey it's the equity guy

Reminder that these faggots gave Gone Gome a 90

Same happened with oblivion remaster threads. Eerie.

every time I've heard this 'they're written like real people" shit it's in regards to something like Night in the Woods dialogue cause it's how their zoomoid friends talk to each other, you just can't deal with something you're not familiar with

Why is it that players need to choose a side like they are in a war? if you like jrpg's then both games are good and are worth playing

because clair obscur has a chink shill campaign behind it

Many Anon Babble anons are exactly like these neogaf niggers when there is one black woman in a game

Even if that's true that doesn't mean the game is bad and you need to choose a side. I played both and they are both good

You don't get it, that is literally the reason why there are sides

a necromancer shouldn't be able to revive someone from near death

really dude?
also louis never planned any of that well ahead of time. he took advantage of the situation and played the hand he was dealt. it's a good bit of writing.

What happened in that the game being great assblassted many a poster here, including known schizophrenics, and immediately started shitting on it and any threads about it to push their agenda, it's been happening since the first trailer. It then invited the (You) farmers and shitposters that just spam bait and successfully cultivate the image of a disagreement.
IDs when?

It's a shill campaign dude you're 6 chapters behind if you still think it's FFschizos and whatnot doing everything

Youre fooling noone

Keep up

Brutal

The only interesting part of Metaphor's story was that brief moment after you "murder" Louis. That should've happened much sooner, then make you deal with the fallout of disrupting the democratic process since now everyone hates you. Of course, Atlus can't do this because of the Persona mandate where each character gets their own forced chapter in the forced calendar and everyone needs their time for socials and zzzzzzz.

Daily reminder most of the shitposting about Expedition 33 comes from Farquaad who is notorious for being a literal faggot (he literally suck dicks) and hating cute girls in vidya.

Where do I apply?

characters get time to do something in a window of time that isn't massively truncated for the sake of retarded children that will forget what was happening in the story arc well before the end of it

Couldn't be a western game

The concept of a feudal empire forced to accept liberal democracy by magic moon dad could have been cool but they just wanted to tell a story about anime characters being friends and saving the day instead of going full disco schizo like it should have

OHNONONONO

jrpg :/
jrpg france :O

then make you deal with the fallout of disrupting the democratic process since now everyone hates you.

I don't think you understood the plot.

I didn’t want persona, I didn’t want persona with all the rough edges smoothed off, and I definitely don’t want persona without any persona.

pretentious

just say it makes you extremely buttblasted and you have no counterargument

India

Holy kek

They're in a war with Pakistan now

i don't care i like jrpgs more because they have more numbers. expedition has ff16 tier dialogue and an alright story. a story can never improve a video game, it can only hope to succeed in not making me want to blow my brains out

E33 dialogue was much more natural and the story unfolds like a good novel, giving you bread crumbs and making you put things together yourself. Japanese exposition is buglike, warping dialogue into unnatural constructs to force feed ridiculous amounts of plot and back story. How should I relate to such buglike behavior? E33 may have some plebbit overtones, but it’s largely well done and lacks a lot of the Marvel irony/snark faggotry. It has sincerity.

with all the rough edges smoothed off

This has always been code for "I want these games to be weird edgy shit like the 18+ games I discovered when I was 15"

I wonder how many reviewers will regret giving a high score now that it's obvious the devs love trotting out their hot 16 year old to advertise the game?

Thanks chatgpt

Chinks are making better games than the faggotry coming out of DEI studios. I’d rather the chinks win and run every studio that bowed to the longhouse be run out of business. Burn it all down.

my chink overlords should take over because woke woke woke

It was obvious when the bugmen tried to get your collective foot in the door using American social issues back in 2021. Now it's just embarrassing

lol

It's not really true
Actually the director made this post on reddit to find some free VA during vertical slice:

The female VA who responded gave some advice on the story and ended up being hired.

Here is the director reddit account btw:

The demo trailer of the game. It was called "We Lost" at this time.

So in other words it was written by a redditor

here comes the retard trying to spin the narrative

muh redditor is a chad!!!!1

Cry harder, retard

why aren't they euthanized anymore?

we need every character to have 8 social link events which predictably solve their problems through the power of friendship again

Not since P3 anyway. It finally looked like they'd do a good one with Alonzo, but even there they dropped the ball since Atlus can't have a social link without a happy ending now

like poetry

gustave was never the protagonist

verso saved alicia from the beach
verso told gustave and lune where to go find alicia
and renoir was training and keeping alicia safe

which is why when verso doesn't intervene, gustave dies

no u

I accept your concession.

Where can I find a crispy Alicia gf?

This is a thing now, huh? Retarded illiterate zoomers who can’t talk to each other let alone girls. I used to sympathize. Now I just think you deserve it all.

reeeee I need a sad ending to feel anything

This looks worse than most /agdg/ games made by anons, it's pretty interesting they managed to go from that trailer to Kepler funding. It hints to me E33 would never have been made if the dev hadn't been able to use his ex-Ubisoft credentials and was just a normie

it's pretty interesting they managed to go from that trailer to Kepler funding.

Not being autistic helps (/agdg/ instantly disqualified)

There being a movie deal already landed before the game even came out + the massive shilling for the game at launch just makes me think Sandfall was just a marketing experiment with full AAA backing

They didn't go to Kepler with this. This is the prototype.
They made a vertical slice during one year after that with love money and business angels funding mostly. The vertical slice already had the parry system.
Then they went to GDC in 2022 and most publishers were interested so they had multiple offers. They decided to sign with Kepler because they felt they would have the most uncompromised creative freedom with them.

can't we shit, scream and shout until we get ids?

They decided to sign with Kepler because they felt they would have the most uncompromised creative freedom with them.

I wonder what arrangement they negotiated, since Kepler is owned by the group of indie studios that founded it, and whatever equity they raised. Sandfall couldn't have gotten equity in Kepler since they aren't a founding member.
Did Kepler buy Sandfall? Or Sandfall got a stake in Kepler? Or do they just have a publishing contract?

It's common knowledge Farquaad has been shitposting in most E33 threads. He has viseral hate for this game.

Metaflop is copy pasted faglus slop. E33 is actaully unique.

They didn't get any stake in Sandfall. Sandfall is still 100% independent appart from non-controlling shareholders from the start of the project (business angels).
I'm pretty sure they had to sell some of their Clair Obscur IP to Kepler as part of the publishing deal. Hence the movie being made (Kepler has a lot of Holywood connexions) which was not a Sandfall initiative.

Hence the movie being made (Kepler has a lot of Holywood connexions)

Was this the reason there was a Sifu episode in that weird Amazon Prime series about games?

Sandfall's business record shows 3 directors, all 3 core devs. Kepler just gave them money it seems and they tend to give good terms like not having to repay the entire amount before making profits.

Very interesting

There is also a dedicated Sifu movie being made by the same studio as Expedition 33.

Alexis Garavaryan founded both Kowloon Nights and Kepler. Alexis Garavaryan was an ex-Ubisoft employee. It's possible the devs had personal connections. Still it's a good game but I wonder if their vertical slice would've got them so far without that. Would be interesting to see the slice at some point.

What's a vertical slice?

It's an entire playable level. Usually with polished quality.

Working on only a small portion of the game and trying to make it look as complete and accurate to your vision as possible, to use as a pitch.

Thanks anons

That not even the all time high for e33, its 145k now

Because pisscord trannies ran out of metacritic copes to shill shitazio.

145k chinese bots

wow such success story

bot buy a 50$ game

are you retarded?
