I really hope E33 set a new standard for TBRPGs...

I really hope E33 set a new standard for TBRPGs, the japs got away with ps3 gameplay/graphics for too long because nobody is competing with them, metaphor was actually embarrassing

I really hope Slopedition 33 set a new standard for TBRPGs

I'd rather if it was never mentioned again. redd!t writing and UE5 visual vomit - it's truly one of the most forgettable games I've ever had the misfortune to pirate.

I really hope E33 set a new standard

This would be a major setback.

without the fatlus boost it's 85 at best

Without the "we are a small indie million company uwu" it's an 85 at best

indie games get bad ratings all the time, fatlus games never do

Graphics I can understand but what the fuck is "ps3 gameplay"?

I think the Persona team is pretty in shambles now that the frenchmen told the entire world their games feel obsolete and outdated

Fatlus

AAA

Both Metaphor and E33 are AA, the only studio that makes AAA JRPGs is Square Enix and they suck

Hallway dungeons with minimal level design, and you have to press X to go down a ladder

what's Reddit about the writing?

Its time to start deleting e33 threads

What standards does e33 set? What does it do exceptionally well l? What about it is innovative?

no blacks or faggots

50 dollar game good

Japanese "games" need to be eradicated.

What standards does e33 set?

that you can make this type of game without weebshit

if you go on the unreal engine's website you'll see how easy it is to create those type of landscapes with just a few clicks

90% of the game is natural landscapes, they basically changed leaves color and that's it

There are lots of blacks

False
Reddit is the other way

Unironically nothing

The future is European and Chinese

What do you think "Indie" means? An "Indie video game" is defined primarily by the independence of the developer, not by budget or team size you retarded zoomer.

I can tolerate cheaper graphics if they're like technically competent but I dont want to boot up a game in 2025, get 60 fps looking at ps3 textures without anti aliasing on my 2k € pc

Jrpg devs bigger problem is the pacing of storytelling where they value big hours more than the gamers do

these are the same exact negroid models from Redditbirth lmao they probably bought them from the same jeets

120 million? fr?
don't exaggrate everything you fucking dramaqueenqueernigger

safe shit vs original kino

bottom sounds cooler and is more unique tbhtbh

that's literally the only good song in Metaphor

Japan cannot innovate anymore. It's like they decided the 90s was the best time and decided to freeze the whole country in that era. Similar to how Jap developers uniformly agree that life doesn't exist outside of high school. Literally peaked-in-highschool the country. The world moves on without them.

The so-called "indie" game costs more to make and has much less content.

if metaphor wasnt anime and had the weebs shilling for it would the story have been as good? I believe no.

How is it not indie?

WRPG Battle theme

They have like a dozen battle themes and all are awesome. Especially the boss fights like goblu.

Reading "it can't be helped" for the 50th time in one sitting is not content

because there are people out there that still believe that an indie game means its a game made with pennies as a budget and by one person.

there's plenty

comfy town song with implications of something bigger

Metaphor is just full of good music

sadly a lot of other themes in metaphor are locked behind DLC like the etrian battle theme

imagine trying so hard to hate a game but youre still interested in it enough to pirate it.
fucking lol.

Too many developers.

and I thought FF7 remake music was bad

They would never know, I can tell almost every Metaphor hater on this board never played the game.

frognigger is a frogposter

Like poetry kek

How is it not indie?

33 core devs + 70 third-party devs, musicians, etc.

Skyrim was an indie game by that logic.

But they're not owned by a company and made it all by themselves.

they have a publisher, that's not indie by definition

Kepler doesn't own Sandrock, they're still indie

made up number

pokemon

pikachu

Artstyle, Music, Dialogue and Story. Gameplay was fun too.

They had 8 actual third party devs and a bunch of third party QA's.
They also did not grow their own food and did not build the house they have their office in themselves. Maybe count them too.

Isn't atlus using the same fucking shit engine since the PS2 era?

Atlus hasn't made a decent game since SMT 4. Nu Persona is trash and only appeals to the lowest common denominator. I haven't played Clair yet, but I doubt it's worse than a modern Atlus game.

120

Nice try shill, it was 469 billions

Empty hallway simulator RPGs are garbage, fuck off. The only good SMT game before the Switch is Strange Journey.

Bump

Settle down. Zelda lost.

Japan is a country that allied with Hitler and waged war against Jewish America, so it should use that identity more effectively.

This masterpiece mogs E33 in every aspect including graphics somehow

Nah
