Hey squeer-enix

hey squeer-enix
this is how it's done

What's so special about this game? The ugly graphics are a serious turn off...

the most astro turfed game of 2025 sold less than one of the most hated FF stuck on PS5

124 (2).png - 868x1060, 1.31M

It's a JRPG without anime on the cover, without cringe anime tropes, and that's not about a bunch of high school punks saving the world. For that reason, it's automatically better than all the Japanese slop before it.

ugly graphics

kill yourself

Yeah but it had one tenth of the budget also who cares about sales it's about good games, corpo bootlicker.

Is this low detail blurry mess supposed to be a retort against the awful visuals?

game universally praised for being visually stunning

hurr durr unly gwaffix

i swear you faggots try way too hard to be contrarian

comparing it to netflix goyslop like thats a flex

the characters a-aren't like me...!! i-i can't relate!! i have to self-insert!!

spiritually brown thinking
i instinctually knew this was shit but now i know its shit on a deeper level, the depth of the appeal for le based everyman is as deep as a puddle

it had a movie deal prior to release

lol
absolutely disgusting casualfaggot trash. just transition already
reply if you want, i already left. i only made this post to laugh at your surface level taste. you probably identify as a gamer irl lmao

vaseline aesthetic

So much bloom you can't make out whatever is in the sky. Is it a star? A moon? Some other celestial body? Fuck if I can tell.
What I presume to be water looks like an oil spill.
Textures are super low quality.
Everything is blurry and non-distinct
What is that shrub shaped light on the right?

visually stunning

PS2 games looked better than this lol

Pajeet core post

bros projecting

I thought your jeet boogieman loved ugly as fuck unreal games?

game is ugly because my thirdworlder pc can't run it

Unreal Engine slop

:(

Unreal Engine slop turn-based

:)
It's just Jarpig tropes mixed with generic Unreal slop.
There are no good UE5 games. Anyone competent is using anything other than nu-Unity and UE5

these are the same retards who said elden ring was ugly

I'm a decent way into act 2, it's... okay? I don't really understand the level of hype it's received other than it's a decent game in a sea of shit. I absolutely despise any of the additional content outside of the main objective, the jumping puzzles are gay, most loot feels "who gives a fuck tier", the game gives absolutely no world building so you have no clue why this bitch can basically hover over the ground and use magic.

The main content is decent, the parry system could be more fine tuned as the windows feel like they are fucking off compared to the actual animations, the game itself is nothing ground breaking, it's just a solid 8/10.

why do you post like a zoomer retard?

the game gives absolutely no world building

holy fuck what a retarded take

elden ring isn't a blurry pile of shit with zero art direction

nokron.jpg - 3840x2160, 1.08M

sad thing is, it wasn't always like that. even ff7, Cloud went from cocky spiky haired badass like super saiyan Goku to anime japanese host gaylord. like one of those before anime/after anime memes of Japan. with the left side being Toshiro Mifune and the right side being some japanese timothy shatmypants numale

something like ff8 would be perfect for a modern JRPG cast.
the thing is, SE has done a few games (decades ago...) without the cringy anime shit. like the FF8 character designs are literally perfect and would absolutely mog expedition 33 and most WRPG slop character designs who find new and innovative ways of making their characters look like drug addicts and hobos (i.e. sciel, whatever betheda releases)

something like ff8 would be perfect for a modern JRPG cast.

ff8.png - 1825x1828, 3.84M

both games are gorgeous you fucking weaboo faggot

comparing 2 year sales numbers to 2 week sales numbers, and the 17th game in a massive franchise vs new indie IP.

it's a jrpg, but with french people and not actual anime, so it's good

just call it a frogrpg

also here's a mime and a melted eifel tower, because we are french, hon hon.

Don't worry, once the shitch 2 receives a massively downgraded port like what happened with witcher 3 and automata, they'll suddenly pretend that the graphics are good

the sour grapes over this game is hilarious

unironically building and using V*rso

ngmi

zero art direction

were you hit on the head as a baby?

fuck off retard

it's awful bait that should be ignored

Why is it so blurry? It looks really bad.

It's dark souls world building meaning everything is hidden in the subtext and metaphors so people can think are experiencing something worth academic value akin to a Hemingway or Dostoyevsky novel.

gustave pls go

because your monitor is shit

it's an excel sheet, but with white people and anime graphics, so it's good

just call it a jrpg

also here's a God final boss and a melted shibuya crossing, because we are japanese, desu.

now compare it to the costs of both games

zoomer doesn't understand why this game is great like 90s classics

what a surprise

motion blur is deactivated by default in the remaster

No your eyes have accepted garbage.

got btfo by calling it ugly

now has to rely on blurry

lol
lmao

everyone agrees this game is a visual masterpiece except those who haven't played it

Untitled.png - 1795x1054, 2.83M

my eyes will never accept you

would you care to elaborate?

Yeah so crisp and clear look at all this detail.
Ew please don't look at me with your crazy eyes.

18375838.jpg - 1641x1448, 781.65K

every braindead normie that only plays the shittiest games accept it as a visual masterpiece*

play the game retard

No, my chroma spirit will persevere to keep watching at a distance YABBA DABBA DOOO

709373363

weak bait

twitch

max 1080p with horrible compression

are you retarded?

My nigga Gustave deserved better than this shit.
Play the fucking piano faggot, or you get the hose again.

I can't believe I got Aerith/Aeris'd in 2025. Bravo frogs, bravo..

Sure! Retarded people usually can't think for themselves and typically need major assistance to live. They can be wheelchair bound, have the same potato face they all have, and speak slowly if at all.

visual masterpiece.

character design ugly as fuck

pick 1

Ask whats good about it

They link a youtube video and say reviewers say it visually stunning

So only golems who can't think for themselves like it?

Playing as the villain is fun sometimes.

709373413

fucking faggot with a smear game.

say good stuff

get called a shill

character design ugly as fuck

the takes in this thread somehow keep getting more retarded with every post
weekend Anon Babble really is something

A golem and a paranoid schizo

game went to shit after they ned starked my boy gustave. only likable nigga in the game. everyone else had some problems.

verso was a scamming pajeet. the dessendres are all coping (like literally coping). no one gives a fuck about lune/sciels characters.

Still to blurry

Nice blurry mess. wanna see what the rendering look like underneath all that vaseline?

pixel shit.png - 369x314, 255.72K

YEA, THIS DOESN'T HAVE UGLY GRAPHICS

shiny mud puddles of black and brown with the character models obscured

This isn't SEA and Indian astroturfing that's mostly Metaphor for the same fidelity but it doesn't mask itself with extreme shaders and tons of fog by the way.

yeah that's why people were memeing about Sciel for months before the game released. rest of the characters barely look better

GTFO you stupid nig

Oh no anon you can't do that they'll move the goalposts!!

No, I've just been in a few threads that discuss this game. You always get at least one fag screaming at anyone saying anything positive about this game and calling them a shill in some way.

Mocking Metaphor

i love the absolute asshurt this masterpiece is causing

Shitposters spam that LITERALLY every post on Anon Babble about a game is a shill, retard. Just fucking ignore them if somebody asks a legitimate question about what you like about the game.

Gustave was the GOAT (Gustave of all time) but at least Verso had the whole DILF thing going on

lol it's blurred as fuck and yet I can still see how the grainy and artefacty visuals are.

square-enix employees seething ITT

My favorite characters were Gustave and Lune, and it went amazingly for both of them
Fuck the Dessendres, kill the demiurge.

I really do not get the level of raw seething directed at this game. It's not even something like "dude I don't care stop spamming threads". It's just constant lying about the game for like two weeks now. I really don't understand it. What makes someone act like this? How is it even possible that there's more than one person so mentally ill that they dedicate all their time to it?

It's a jrpg-inspired game that has nothing overtly Japanese about it so journos that think they're too good to play anything Japanese are busting verbal nuts about it online

The loot you get is more passives abilities for all your characters so it's actually nice to do content in this game.
That's it, they fixed exploration and side content being a chore with this one simple trick.
Also the combat gameplay isn't a snorefest and the story is mysterious enough so you can be interested in the world if you care.

then please tell me what exactly is so great about the world building. Nothing tells you anything, even in act 1 the whole world just felt like a fever dream, as if nothing matters and then you find out everything is just contrived metaphor bologne.

All this impotent shitposting and forced tortanic nonsense will vanish the moment it gets a 480p port on the Switch 2.
It'll no longer be fotm fomo chink shill slop, it's an achievement for AA gaming and proof of Japanese cultural influence or something.

I really do not get the level of raw seething directed at this game

you could have just typed "I'm a complete retard" and we would have gotten the same message

Nothing tells you anything

fucking brainlet zoomers need everything told to them directly

A turn based game without all the J Kino that makes J games superior

This place is full of contrarians that want to hate on the current popular well received thing. God only knows how these people kept functioning when the site was down.

It looks great but man that steel brush deferred rendering hair stands out too much

Anon Babble was sucking this game off before it got super popular

people keep lying about and defending the massive flaws the game has

this is objectively bad for video games and why modern games look and run so bad in the first place

people here push back against this. why? this sycophantic behavior is what's killing the quality of video games.

JRPG weebs have thrown tantrums for years which have in turn made their games into borderline gacha games, E33 brought the genre back more to where it used to be and now they are having another temper tantrum

same to say this is the amount of asshurt this game is currently causing Anon Babble

Every UE 5 looks blurry, this one is just a little more blurry, the Cry Engine should be the standard, KCD 2 looks very good and runs way better than UE slop

Gustave invented a way to make yourself stronger than god. Let him cook and the painted people will probably break out of the canvas.

it doesn't hold your hand

the "J Kino"

amikawaii.jpg - 680x680, 111.03K

Yeah, hair strands would make the characters look even better. My one complaint about the graphics. Still great models for a AA game

enjoying great game

Anon Babble seething over game

name a better feel

The game looks fucking fantastic, you insane retard. How did you end up like this?

:(

francoiscry.png - 1079x272, 43.56K

lmao

This reaction to gamers preferring sharp visuals seems more mentally ill than anything else in this thread to be hoenst.

The game looks fucking fantastic,

Still great models for a AA game

A Blender porn animator who extracted and rigged them said the same, so...

hating popular things isn't a personality

the ideal is not so much "sharp" as it is "crisp and clean"
UE5 is capable of neither.

moving goalpost to animations

me when I see tendies and thirdies seething over this game

Ask about a popular game's good points out of interest of potentially playing it

Apparently this makes you a hater

lol

Whe was the last time a game made the schizos on Anon Babble seethe this much?

Do you even understand what visuals are?

even your your blurry high DLAA screenshots can't hide what a visual mess this game is

keep seething over the fact you can't play it

animations are a vital part of visuals.
even pretending they're not. you admit the animation is trash.

the game gives absolutely no world building so you have no clue why this bitch can basically hover over the ground and use magic.

It's mentioned in the prologue, the dancers near the harbour engraved pictos on their bodies in an apparently painful procedure in order to use magic.
Rather than opting for infodumps, the game incorporates its worldbuilding indirectly in its conversations, it doesn't beat you over the head with it.

Verso had the whole DILF thing going on

be 100+ old semi deity stalking people like ants

intentionally kill the male lynchpin of the group to leave them vulnerable

immediately position yourself as his replacement

emotionally manipulate everyone knowing that you'll discard them after they exhaust their usefulness

fuck the women too

then just betray and kill them all

you're controlling him the whole time and it's a tossup if he's meant to be the protagonist or Maelle

Verso is such a compelling character, I fucking hate him so much

i bet star ocean 3 would give you a seizure
fucking dumbass

the game explains how people can use 'magic' before you even leave the prologue

Verso being such a piece of shit almost singlehandedly makes the Maelle ending an actual good ending, despite the very real downisdes.

Turdie thinks he's special being able to run this at 1080p lol

the dancers near the harbour engraved pictos on their bodies in an apparently painful procedure in order to use magic.

my fuarkin heroes in Expedition 60 didn't need no toys

There should be an annual betting pool on which game Anon Babble is gonna seethe the most (consequently good indicator for all GOTY contenders). Elden Ring, BG3, Expedition 33? Judging by the inflamed sphincters, it's looking pretty good.

look at my toaster guise

Those are the recommended specs from the Steam page. As you've observed, that is toaster level. The PS5 probably has comparable specs.

Played more than enough to know it's low quality and you're a liar.
literal chink contractors worked on this game BTW.

Kek, he's poor

you can't even afford a pc like that so you're seething lmao

Black Myth Wukong, BG3, Elden Ring. It's real easy actually - just pick any big title over the years. Anon Babble is stuck perpetually in the stunted high school contrarian phase.

being a contrarian doesn't make you cool

handle clipping through hand

this is the default weapon shape too

really proving the game is polished lol

Why is the game begging me to oneshot everything?

Anon Babble was fucking all over this game when the trailers dropped
now that it's popular and sold over 2mil it's a bad game lmao

Imagine playing for more than 3h and not even unlocking the third character for your party.
How fucking bad are you at video games?

keep seething that you'll never play it

naked buff JoJo geezers beating the game at level 1 through sheer muscular prowess then breaking the barriers of the demiurge by punching through

Literally too based to live

that's my monitor resolution dipshit.
if you play on a 4K monitor without DSR you're a retard.

1080p is the best monitor size. 4K and ultrawide meme niggers need to die.

kino games always make Anon Babble seethe
it's redditors who came over here because INTERNET HATE MACHINE LOL but have taken it too far because they're retards

considering how many posters you have to yell this at maybe you're the contrarian

1080p is the best monitor size

You're not only poor but also retarded. No wonder you don't like this game

you realize 2k exists

The whole timeline is:

hey, this game's trailer looks nice

protagonists are white, dev team is white and shared their favourite vidya on a company website, that's pretty cool

Sophie makes her way onto the 2024 collage, the sentiment is cautious optimism

some schizo (singular) starts spamming anti-threads

Anon Babble goes down

when it comes back up, Anon Babble starts dicksucking the game for the first day or so

resident schizos lose their shit

Plus Maellefags have been a thing ever since reveal trailer.

The Maelle ending is the good one simply for maximizing the suffering of that whole family. They deserve even worse for irresponsibly playing God.

Instead of shilling AssCreed Shadows, they're now attacking this game because it's made by Ubisoft detractors and putting Ubisoft as a whole to fucking shame. They were applauded by the fucking president of France too. Ubishills are absolutely malding, and Square-Enix is shitting themselves.

But Verso and Monoco's whole conversation after he first joins is practically something straight out of Yakuza.

All that garbage UI clutter on screen

grim

4K is fucking terrible.
you can't even play arcade and pixel art games at native resolution because the pixel look too small.
4K is dogshit for retards.

siding with Maelle/Alicia

absolutely disgusting

they're now attacking this game

The 'attacks' in question

No. I promise you the game is a one trick pony. Everything is deliberately kept in the dark for the first two acts until the "big reveal", and then after that there is nothing left to uncover in the world, because everything is just one big metaphor for grief. You can believe all you want that everything is hidden in the minute details and it takes true literacy to uncover it all but that is not the case here, there is no value in trying to decipher anything because it is all surface level. I am sorry to be so sulky about it as after all is said and done it is a nice emotional tale, but I do think the way it is told is rather pretentious.

what's next?
i remember you shitposters tried attacking the music and got fucking obliterated

What's so special about this game?

Play it and find out.

The animation is perfectly fine. You're an insane person. You've been obsessing over this game for weeks. How did you end up like this?

fuck off you disingenuous faggot

pretentious

there's that buzzword brainlets use for something that they can't understand

the most popular mod is lowering the difficulty?

man, I wonder why the combat filtered so many people, it's not even hard

6.png - 367x525, 91.17K

some random from Soundcloud is making Squaresoft tier bangers

how

the most popular mod is lowering the difficulty?

you take like no damage if you just put some DEF points on in story difficulty.
how could the game get any easier? are these people not even learning the parries?

the most popular mod is lowering the difficulty?

The combat should be harder, what the fuck. One-shotting endgame bosses is not fun.

icefrog bringing in the filter even in spirit

fvark...

all games have the easy mod being the most popular, normies are that horrible

I am actually procrastinating doing my finals assignment (it's due on Sunday) but I'll take a crack at why it's so hated. I actually answered this in another thread but basically I think the game does everything well, but nothing new. As in it's a good nod to all the other jrpgs that came before but it won't revolutionize the genre. So I think people are mad because its doing exactly what we have all wanted the big developers to do and then they get called genius masters of their craft for what seems like should be a standard game from the heavy hitters like Square.

Only SJWs don't like anime tropes

It's a grab bag of shit from better games like P5 (ui), FF (world map/airship), and Mario RPG (timed attacks), as well as a very heavy Fromsoft influence including Dark Souls (bonfire/estus), Elden Ring (enemy attack patterns) and Sekiro (parrying)

But it's also french so the story is nihilistic and miserable, BUT it's also western so the character design is ugly/woke/dei

2 of those hours were spent trying to remove the artifacting.
but it can't be done as proves

I'm open to going in blind, but before that could you disarm my concerns regarding the visuals by posting a screenshot with all this shit disabled?

aids.png - 815x313, 190.33K

You could replace every character in the game with teenagers and it would be the same game. You are mentally retarded.

game is a solid 8/10

that's high as fuck praise though you retard you meant to say 6/10 zoomers I swear

It's not even the difficulty, just increasing the parry window, and I don't understand why. If the parry window is too tight, just don't play on Expert, you don't even get more exp or an achievement for it.
If I were to hire a game designer I'd also want a dotard, it's the best you could have learned from.

character design is ugly etc

Renoir, Verso and Gustave are all handsome
Maelle is cute, Sciel is ok, lune is autistic looking but not ugly and Clea is absolute pure sex

So its complete garbage?

DOTA 2

Is massively dumbed down compared to vanilla Warcraft 3. There's a reason why third worlders love this game but not RTS.

Elden Ring

One of the easiest games FromSoft has ever released.

Smash Bros, Pokemon

Games made for 10 year olds.

What are you trying to imply here?

yeah check out a couple people streaming it, they all can't parry for shit but will still use pictos/luminas that increase damage done to them or prevent healing
they also try and play every character the same and don't even bother using any support skills that could help them

Then tell me what I don't understand. This game is not that deep for you to act as if only galaxy brains can understand it. It's just a story after all. Believe it or not it's actually my most played game this year, every thing else is a solid 9/10 so I am not hating just to hate. It's just the story that brings down what should be a 10/10 game.

the film grain is very minor and i think the game looks slightly better with it on but it's quite hard to tell.

send the other options to the shadow realm

The one big innovation is taking Paper Mario combat and tweaking it so that it's not braindead easy, making it feel closer to a Souls game. Everything else is just a love letter to the JRPGs of old mixed with great writing/acting/art direction.

you people are angrier than Francois lmao

Wait until the end of act 2. I agree it’s generally an 8/10, but it’s the little things and the big moments that elevate it. If you can wrap your head around what’s happening it’s an incredible story

so, how is every game she is in GOTY tier?

what is with millenials and being so obsessed with final fantasy

lune is autistic looking but not ugly

I love her for her autism actually

Indians love E33 so it makes sense

Exactly, and it does a great job at what it does. Now imagine a FF4 remaster with this kind of gameplay

here friend

Xess.png - 369x314, 205.59K

S-s-sjws

thanks for reminding everyone that anime trope lovers are all either trains or 3rd worlders who eat up political grifting

lune is what the girl in shadows should have looked like. ironically, they are french devs like ubisoft.

FF was good when they were teens

looks like performance dlss on 1080p

implying RTS isn't dead

Holy Vaseline UE5 slop, KEK

maybe grown ass men should grow out of their teen years then?

zero art direction

contrarianism is one thing but you're outright retarded

I’m having a hard time adapting to the 9999 damage cap being gone. What’s your Lune strategy? I end up spending turns doing 2k damage just to eventually do 40k once

Because modern gaming caters to barely human apes who can't handle games more complicated than doturd.

elemental trick > genesis

uh yeah? The local jrpg kusoge inti creates shits out has more art direction then this garbage lol.

my lune strategy was to not use her at all in act 3.

Setting up shit like Powerful on Shell/Rush on powerful and then making heals apply shell and using Typhoon turns into a good support but you could also just use Monoco and apply every buff/debuff in the game

some weapons let her start with stains or get some with 1-2 AP
then just start chaining spells with stain bonuses
or get dark strain trickery

you'll always be a gaijin

I am happy that im white and living in Japan. I get to be a retard baka gaijin and fuck Japanese whores without having to have any social pressure so I appreciate it.

Anime aesthetics were fine once upon a time but the overuse of the same tired tropes really made it untouchable for most people. We need like a new Akira to reclaim anime from the otakus who can only think in terms of tropes but for that happen first we would need creators in Japan itself who aren't complete hacks all working from the same safe playbook.

bg3 characters and story straight up suck, I don't know why people actually like those parts

then this

i fucking knew you were all thirdy ESLs

mfw all it takes is a competently made game with decent writing, fun gameplay and a soundtrack that's not just generic slop and people say the game is great

This game is quite a testament of what the industry has become. It's definitely not a 10/10 game but since it's not garbage written by a retard, people love it.
Not to mention the devs making the game in such a way that you can completely break it was a good decision.

If PST is considered deep then this game is deep too.

game is great

nah it's just because other games are bad

lol this is the new narrative huh?

performance

AI scaling

1080p

how is it allowed for games to even look this bad or require AI at all.
if you were to run performance settings on old games even at 720p, you'd still get a decent clean image.
nothing like this filthy looking shit and you'd never need AI to fake what the game truly looks like.

Game is 7/10, great = 9/10. Get some standards or maybe play more vidya.

i don't know how one could say it doesn't have one of the best soundtracks in gaming with the sheer amount of quality tracks. It's definitely up there with the all timers.

mfw when i realize i can just rest easy knowing someone like you is so fucking unhappy in life that you will end it one dark day because you enjoy nothing in life

you're trying too hard

this game unironically was like a version of this combat, but different. instead of turn + parry, it was active/menu + parry.

Does it beat Nier:Replicant? No? k then its bad.

aoe fire stack on everything, heal/aoe heal if needed, and then hellfire at max, mayhem for stain stacks

I ended up doing that on Lune as well, but then she ended up supporting nobody because stuff like Inverted/Confident Fighter are too important to not have.

The environnements in this game were a massive letdown.

Rocky valley

Underwater grotto

Another grotto

Destroyed city with rocks everywhere

Another rocky valley

pretty underrated game imo

Its ue5 slop, what did you expect

to fake what the game truly looks like.

This argument never made sense to me. Upscaling/frame gen is bad because it has BAD RESULTS (artifacts, smearing, input lag etc.) not because of some fundamental religious opposition to "fakeness". If they can make it look good, then great.
Anisotropic filtering is "fake angles", any anti-aliasing is "fake edges", all computer graphics are "fake", only results matter.

It's a good game but it's definitely not a 10/10 masterpiece. Act 3 feels a little rushed, they could have included little QoL improvements like the ability to save builds and I wished there was a little more variety with the soundtrack when fighting normal "non-boss" enemies. Also fuck the volleyball minigame.
It's a good game overall, no doubt.

I think that’s the one I’m using now. Getting stains is the hard part
Ok, I actually have all of them set up with confident and confident fighter, so no healing. Monoco seemed good, but another character is a lot to wrap my head around
Just remembered I’ve got her stats mostly in agility and luck, but none of her weapons scale to both so far

why is her hair pink, is she a liberal?

use kralim and cheater

use the first turn to complete you stains gacha with hell, crustal crush or lightning dance

use second turn for genesis

rince and repeat

What's so special about this game? The ugly graphics are a serious turn off...

Nothing, it's super mid. Just a bunch of hopped up retarded anti-weebs trying to sell it as "the best jrpg ever" because they don't like weeb tropes and graphics.
It's really just kind of mediocre.

This game is probably the fattest 6/10 I've ever seen, its mostly astroturfed by jeets and trannies that either A. Hate Japan or B. Have never played any good vidya.

nah she's just lightning

I'm getting bored.
I'm doing the same rotation every fight, and I'm at, what, the middle of act 2 and the story is still pretty bad so far.

I dunno how much those stats matter
but like I can easily do 60k on her with just her rock spells when you have the stains for it
and yeah she is not really a pure dps character anyway, her spells tend to have a lot of buffs to them or secondary effects that help the whole party dps

Seems like the optional areas were meant to be worked into the story. Then those places that you can only step into are ideas that they didn’t have time for

Should I play Lightning Returns? I love the idea of a 1 nigga in a row game.

It absolutely shits on both nier games are you insane? Nier has some stellar tracks but not nearly as many.

lol fuck off

NO NO NO ANON. YOU CANT SAY THAT, DELETE THIS NOW

oh now the environments are bad
holy fucking hell you retards will make anything up

Gestalt = E33 > Drakengard 1 > Drakengard 3 > Automata >>> demake

If it's only one nigga, it's not a row, it's a point.

minute apart

be less obvious

Actually you hope it's people who didn't play any vidya, because people who had would easily be able to catch you out on your bullshit claims.

bait

graphicsfags need to rope

I played it through to the start of act 3, its alright but Keichii Okabe shits all over this games ost. Longer and fatter ost does not mean better, I could give you a 40 hour ost of okay tracks and it still isn't better than the 4 hour ost of kamige.

it's a pretty good game. 13 gets a lot of shit but it's a pretty and nice sounding game, but XIII-2 and LR are the real standouts.

It's not me.
Man, I wish Hiroshimoot would bring posters IDs back

Wow wet rock and mist, truly revolutionary japan take note

Lune deserved better. Poor autist.

It's true though. You move mostly in barren environments, except maybe the old battlefield. Random objects are floating about without rythme or reason, and that's it.

gestalt has worse tracks then replicant, automata has better tracks than 33, almost any vanillaware game has better tracks, hell ive played eroge with better ost kek. Drakengard 3 has a shit ost.

wet rock and mist is like 50% of japan

She's in too many upcoming games that it might get tiring to hear her voice

Someone actually went through Flying Waters and unironically came out with the conclusion: >"Yep, this is a pretty mid, overrated, graphically ugly and uninspired game."
The other anons are wrong, you're not a poorfag - you're just clinically retarded and utterly tasteless.

It looks like that game where if you fall you have to start all over again.

That shit was literal slop, it kinda shows how little vidya the anons shilling the game play lol.

lol fuck off

if you remove all the track that are variations of 'Une vie à peindre' the list is a lot smaller.

then

it's just bait

I think the game is okay, a little overrated

DUDE you're retarded! youre so mad you fucking zoomer! you probably didnt even BUY it! youre mad!

I don't think I will buy your game after reading this thread

frog'.jpg - 963x850, 83.68K

and the other 50% are panty vending machines

Yep its literal UE5 asset flips too btw, truely normie slop

Flyer waters and the gestral village are the only places that actually feels like you are in a jrpg adventure. Everywhere else is just dark souls

I guess I agree, but there’s enough variety between the short sections to keep me interested. Really it’s the big stuff like axons and final areas that won me over

According to dev interviews Jennifer English was blind cast for the game before BG3 released which is very funny

if i had a dollar for every pixel in the resolution of that fire, I'd have about a dollar.

that's what happens when you come to a website based off of late 1990s aesthetics because you say a Youtube video one time and you decide that the thing to do is make your personality a contrarian about everything. This board is FILLED with these retards, and while it's not like people didn't do this in 2005 it was never ever this bad.

game praised for stunning environments and jaw dropping overworld

Anon Babble has to attack that too

holy fuck lmao

erm spelling error, you lose I win, I come from Reddit!

I accept your concession

See

retards played their first jrpg and think its the second coming of god

former ubisoft devs leave

make a better asian girl than naoe

make a GOTY tier game

imagine being ubisoft right now.

spelling error

lmao

You can't fix terminal contrarianism

Genuine babys first jrpg KEKAROOOOOO

just over a minute apart again

stop

I wonder if the hair going white was the plan all along, or a nod to shadowheart.

Don't forget calling the music AI generated and a random jap teen could compose a better OST for a panty hunting VN

it's okay to like things man
you don't need to fit in here

forgposter

the mascot of the mentally retarded

sorry man going to wait 5 mins when I see a post that I want to reply to

I pirated it and regret playing it, people told me it was a jrpg when it was just a wrpg in a jrpg skinsuit. Genuine UE5 slop made by untalented Ubisoft devs.

Is the bar for JRPGs this low? Lmfao. Talk about living in a desert dying of thirst. You all would be deepthroating anything if it meant getting back at daddy Square

you.jpg - 225x224, 6.41K

I was saying some time ago people only like this because they are anti-Japanese but people called me crazy a while back

these faggots are so desperate lmao

I don't think I will buy your game after reading this thread

Never trust Anon Babble on matters of taste, however the game is mostly a mediocre JRPG that doesn't stand up to the greats. If you go in expecting a bog standard fantasy story that ends in an unsatisfying climax you know what you're getting.
Helps it's not 80 dollars but a second coming it is not.

weekend Anon Babble really is terrible

This is 1080p, highest settings, without the four options in your pic.

Does this game have the greatest story ever told in a video game? Because that's what people make it sound like and I want to know if its true

Its jeets and shills, the astroturfing for this game is insane man. We have had so many good jrpgs this year but Ubisoft had to fund their jeet campaign to make it like they did something good.

Ben Starr also went through a blind audition. Only Charlie Cox and Andy Serkis were recruited outright, for obvious reasons.
Esquie has the best recruitment story youtube.com/watch?v=3-kGpx7CwI0

Anon Babble would be praising this if it didn't sell well and was on the switch

The game goes to shit at the end of Act 1 and isn't worth finishing

it's like 2 rooms you just walk through and some enemies.
Maybe it would be more impressive if the game was capable of rendering transparency and a clean image.
I can not excuse the UE5 artifacts.

Getting stains is the hard part

???
It gives you 4 stains with 100% crit
If the enemy absorbs an element like the frozen heart guys you just use any spell first to get 1 light stain.

yeah if your only played video games are fifa and cod

dat thigh gap on maelle

The ost was partially AI generated, so it makes sense that it sounds like shit lol.

Same settings but with the four options on.

Why is Lune so cute bros

Its by far the game I regret buying the most, most mediocre game of the year for me.

Of course they would. The only reason the game is getting hate is because it is a reaction to it getting praised as the end all be all of jrpgs

if it was on the switch it would look even worse than UE5 normally does.
the switch doesn't have AI scaling to hide the shit rendering.

you said this already
come up with something else

all this seething

stay mad lmao

When was the last time we got a great jrpg? 20 years ago?

I havent ever played UE5 games up until last week but now I understand why people say that engine produces total dogshit.

Pffttt. You see people prancing about like that when they jump? How can people defend this? Just call it how it is. The game has some good things going for it. The animations are not one.

You dont play vidya bro

look like the 4 options are pretty important for attempting to disguise the grainy nature of the visuals.

at the end of the day faggots just want to play pokemon. sad.

Tendies, NuFF fags and Ubishills malding over GOTY again

Utawarerumono, Rance X, Astra Libra and Demon Roots all in one list. I kneel.

Demon roots

Is genuine dogshit with awful gameplay and writing.

that's not KCD2

Gustave was great, but Lune's my favorite character.
Don't project your shit taste onto others.

You didn't have to kill him bro

Lune's my favorite character.

How did you cope?

E33 is not winning GOTY troons. The fact you think it will hold water against the competition this year when the gameplay looks like dogshit is hilarious.

former ubisoft devs make focused turn based jrpg without bloat

current ff devs make ubishit open world games for western audience

This is why everyone hates SE.

Persona 5

opinion discarded

Holy KAMIGE

please, please let ben replace troy baker as the default male voice

Are those "troons" in the room with us right now?

Astra Libra chad spotted

What is the competition, do tell?

Chained Echoes

I don’t know of anything that boosts stains at the moment. I meant I haven’t explored weapons because I just use the one that scales the best with my stats, regardless of bonuses

They wont respond because their E33 slop gets cucked by this list kek

Let's be honest, it's probably going to win because it makes for the best headline. Former Ubisoft devs coming out of left field with a good rpg. If you don't think the game awards are at least a little rigged for stuff like that then throw away your tin foil hat you don't deserve it.

Realistically only Death Stranding 2

nothing is gonna beat it, monster hunter is too niche and while fun, rpgs usually win goty or adventure games.

add metaphor, good picks

Monmusu Quest Paradox 3 Release Date: Nov/01/2024

geoff will be hanged if he gives goty to his friend kojima over a far better game. I think he can't rig it to fuck a small studio.

How about people can like these games and E33 at the same time, is this a crime?

Majority are mediocre

He said "great", anon.

I wonder if id called 13 sentinels a jrpg, its kinda one but it kinda isnt desu.

The audience for death stranding is far larger than the audience for E33. The proof is in how many copies were sold which you all love to point to as a metric for how good the game is. You're delusional if you think E33 is going to win.

So your "GOTY kino" is a glorified postman simulator gameplay walking over washed out landscapes with le heckin' zany Kiss band member with Palpatine guitar? I thought people were shitting on E33 graphics and gameplay, yes?

This makes the French cucks seethe

Dub

You're meant to play this game in French with subtitles. If you play with dub in this game, and use subs when playing Japanese games you are a dirty, smelly hypocrite.

unicorn overlord isn't even a jrpg

Chained Echoes is easily the best JRPG style game from Europe

I can't even tell what's happening in this screenshot from the sheer amount of visual vomit

You say that, and yet when it drops you'll all be seething at how insignificant your game became.

i mean it's only Q2 so it's entirely possible that something better comes out this year. then again, if you look at last year and especially the JRPGs that were nominated, this game could have won goty. all the more so since we now know that GTA won't be out this year.

utawaremono and monochrome

remove monochrome but yes

over a far better game

Is it really? It isn't even out yet.
Realistically I don't see it winning either, it either has too much Kojima to win, or too little and is boring, or just enough and it's too derivative of DS1.
I'm not taking a position on either yet because I haven't played Death Stranding 2, I'm just saying it's the only contender for GOTY so far along with E33.
You asked for competition, what else is there? nuDOOM Quake? Donkey Kong Odyssey? Mario Kart 8 II Deluxe with Dante from DMC?

I have always wondered why unreal engine always showcase their rocks and sands environment.
So these are the retards ITT that are wowed by it...

there is literally 0 chance DS2 has better music or art direction or gameplay/voice acting than e33.

so it will get a pity award.

You were shitting on E33 graphics and gameplay, and yet you suggest Fed Ex Stranding? Is this the mythical Anon Babble refined fedora tastes I'm hearing about? Kojima-san, I kneel.

Only games I played.
On a similar level as E33: Xenoblade X, Nier (both, and if we call them "JRPGs"), Yakuza 0 (if we call it a "JRPG"), Dragon Quest XI.
I like E33 more than the titles above, but I can at least see why others would prefer them.
Good, but certainly below E33: Xenoblade 1, Ys 8, Triangle Strategy, 13 Sentinels, P5, Yakuza LaD, Dranblue, VC4, SaGa2, SMTVV, Ys X, Witchspring R.
Lmao: Xenoblade 2, Disgaea 5, Unicorn Overlord, Cold Steel, Ryza 1-3, Super Mario RPG, Star Ocean 6.
Haven't played the rest.

Kino list, I might try Witch springR soon.

The whole group of "thing, Japan" people still exists. People are throwing random shit at sjws or trannies or thirdies or whatever but it literally just boils down to that, autsitic manchildren who refuse to grow up.

I wanna try Trails but the huge amount of games makes it kinda hard.

E33 is pretty subpar and disappointing..
but a lot of what you listed is cringe anime trash of highly varying quality.
like Xenoblade games, Nier:Autumata, Yakuza Like a Dragon
I've played these. they are not good games.

Mario RPG is very comfy with a neat little artyle tho.

All of them are worse than E33

The only ones I'd call great are Nier games, Romancing SaGa 2, Crystal Project, 13 Sentinels and Astlibra. Maybe Triangle Strategy, SMT VV and Underwater Ray Romano.
Eiyuden is just plain bad, haha is a meme series. Unicorn Overlord, Demons Roots and Chained Echoes are awful, bona fide kusoge.

E33 mogs the entire Japanese pedophile list you posted, kill yourself

squareshills are absolutely seething

That's gotta be like 5 million copies already sold

Relink was my goty, I love that game too much man.

TRVKE

brother E33 literally has a swimsuit outfit for a minor
