Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has flopped in Japan with only 9,825 physical sales

Not like this, JRPG bros...

e33_floppa.jpg - 550x309, 40.08K

nips are immune to NetEase's campaign to shill this slop

Based

they only sent them 9,825 physical copies

Isn't this because they sold out of physical copies?

I don't give a shit what Japs think, they always have horrible taste.

Nope. The game is even in stock on amazon.co.jp, shillbots.

Final Fantasy titles sold 30 times as many copies in Japan

Ouch.

Can somebody explain why turn-based fans are screaming at Square Enix that they need to make Final Fantasy turn-based again?

Can somebody explain

They want SE to go bankrupt.

Japs are notorious for having the worst taste imaginable

The game doesn't appeal to me either. The art style is awkward, the music is lame and I am not a huge fan of turn-based combat either.

I honestly can't blame the Japs for ignoring this game.

The underage girl is not underage enough for the japs

It has flopped in Nigeria too
Retard

japs simply don't play non-japanese games with few exceptions like apex, undertale, minecraft, tsushima, etc
i'd say the vast majority of western hits underperform massively there

Japan plays dbd but not enough dbd to realize nurse is better than myers

Bot thread, bot replies.

Why would netease shill a game that has nothing to do with them?

Why would netease shill a game that has nothing to do with them?

I still cant believe that an A+ western game made such a cutie as lead female character

shitty and astroturfed JRPG flops in the homeland of JRPGs

Wow, what a surprise.

Also, it is well known that nips have mostly abandoned turn-based combat anyway. There is a reason why Dragon Quest XII will not be turn-based either.

BG3 tencentschizo moved on to E33

lmao he's even using the same images

Trannies absolutely BTFO

It's a mindbroken tendie

Witcher 3

E33

I think he just doesn't like the number 3.

Gabe Newell spends his days shitposting on Anon Babble about successful games with 3 in the title

not anime enough

game I like is successful everywhere but in one country

"doesnt matter, the game is still successful and it not selling well in one country doesn't undermine its success"

game I dont like is successful everywhere but in one country

"HAHAHA what fucking failure of a game, this proves the game is shit, get rekt, time to post about it 7 billion threads per hour about this cause this one country this very successful game isnt successful in is all that matters, that'll show them!!!!"

i legit don't know why you all aren't tired of this

Based, japan will not indulge copycats

physical only

new western title

Guaranteed they only printed 10k copies for japan

It’s kinda hilarious that the nips are suffering the same thing we did during ps2 fatlus jrpg era

A journalism campaign of "your country fucking sucks" isn't effective, who knew?

if the game is a success who gives a shit

when did they do that?

"This game is the king of JRPGs!"

"Finally a JRPG will be GOTY and Westoids had to do it!"

"Final Fantasy is Japanese dog shit!"

"Western vidya über alles! BTFO Japs!"

Golly jee wizz, I can't figure out why Japanese don't want to play this game after all of the shilling.

jp players pass on e33

There's no twink to self insert as

I hate that the demake is twink only. I thought about replaying the game when the remake released, but the lack of papa successfully killed any motivation I had.

Brother Nier fits better

I still enjoyed it, so get fucked.

japan has honestly kind of become irrelevant in vidya. I'm not trying to stir shit, I legit believe that.

Dang you're boiling with rage

They sold 100% of their first shipment to JP they had to make more. 2millipn sales and counting Japniggers could never sell a traditional JRPG this well

tendie

the devs already said they will port their frogslop to the switch 2 anon

game I like is successful everywhere

barely 1 million shipments (not proper sales) worldwide while releasing basically eveywhere is not good
especially not when they have multiple outsourced studios and a massive astroturfing shill budget to make back

Japs have shit taste and only care about mobile games

has flopped in Japan

How many times were you planning to remake this thread? And why?
It's THE best selling Playstation game in Japan. It's not Expedition33 that's flopping, it's the PS5.

Japan has only produced shit games in the last 5 years so it's clear their taste has gone to shit.

game without JP localization sells poorly in JP

OH MY GOOOD ITS SO OVER IT NEVER STARTED BRAAAAAPPPP

this can't be cheaper than emulators right? Or are apps just that intrusive where it needs to be a real phone for it to effect the algorithm

You will never be japanese

Whoever lied and said the game has hallway level design is a faggot. Holy shit this might be the best game ive ever played

A small indie company with a small loan of over 200 million dollars.

Lmfao.

Neither are you so why pretend to be offended on their behalf

These are the people that were too stupid to build a PC for like 20 years until overweight shutin fat girls with VT avatars told them too. The same people who spend 40% of their paycheck on gacha phone games.

BASED niggers have BASED taste and avoid this french tranny slop

Japanese people just like shit and refuse to evolve game genres, look at the state of Pokémon and JRPGS

Japan

Who cares? Do you care how much Halo or TES sells in that retarded island too? They're irrelevant.

french slop doesn't improve or invent anything new or good at all, enough with this retarded cope that this game is revolutionary, it's nothing burger

Feels like the 9k that bought the game would be the cool japanese people to hang around with, what's the issue?

is this article even real? how many years it has been since that reveal?

Many of those phones are repaired, refurbished, stolen or sub 100. There's a reason almost all phones end up in China when they're stolen.

shiroi bakemono do not know how to make rpgs

anything else coming out that could cuck it out of GOTY? not really seeing anything on the horizon, though i suppose another surprise isn't out of the question.
maybe death stranding 2 but i personally don't like that series so much

Persona 5 from temu but with a generic fantasy aesthetic is supposed to be an evolution of JRPGs.

The comedy writes itself and frogs are the punchline.

Nobody outside of Kojimashills like DS. Do people not remember it was a literal walking simulator? It was fun watching those faggots do mental gymnastics on how it was a good game.

Half Life 3 surprise drop
I love HK but I doubt Silksong would have the momentum to beat E33

The same people who spend 40% of their paycheck on gacha phone games.

that's westoid goyim, not japan

Probably concord 2 (marathon) and concord 3 (fairgame$)?
GTA6 is not coming out until next year and so is the bald nigress cuckmann game.

Good, fuck this slop

ah yes, just like how Baldurs Gate was actually a Chinese-funded psyop, right?

brown person filtered by one of the greatest games ever made, which has a 92% rating on Steam

Some things never change.

Every successful non japanese game is a cinese psyop

filtered by walking

92% rating on Steam

Actual trash regularly gets 95%+ on Steam.

He scared the jap

I have my finger on the japanese streamer pulse and i have not seen a single one play this game

Yeah its in stock, but by scalpers at scalpers price you fucking disingenuous fuck

it's far more likely they took the screenshot of someone on jewtube playing it

Aside from what someone already mentioned, you have to realize actually getting a real bot farm using a linux machine emulating a gorillion android VMs actually takes effort and half a brain to setup.
Plugging in a gorillion repaired and stolen phones is far cheaper, faster, and you don't have to worry about the indians you put in charge of it actually stealing or breaking anything valuable.

Stop lying, shill.

The game is actually selling so badly, that is even already on sale. kek

I'm not a Nip, nips are retarded.

Any flop can top the PiS5 chart category in japan.

That's fucking grim, it really shows how fucking dead snoy is in japan.

Only subhumans care about Japan and everyone in this board knows who they are.

It's still funny seeing them giddy about "flopping in japan" as if it's a mega own condemning the game to obscurity. They can't stop seething

He is trying to imply that the japanese dont play games without a japanese dub... completely forgets all fromsoft games exist

Why does this game upset you so much?

The moment you start seeing wiki screenshots and moon runes you know it's a Ninpedo behind it.

Tendies want to be japanese so bad. Is it because they're whiter than you?

That's fucking grim, it really shows how fucking dead snoy is in japan.

True.

Some games like Final Fantasy do still sell extremely well on PS5, but otherwise the PS5 is dead. Japanese gamers will never forgive Sony for moving PlayStation HQ to shithole Commiefornia and pumping out woke slop.

the real question is why this game flopping upsets the shills so much
these threads have been nearly bump limit back to back seething from goyim and glowies

Japanese gamers will never forgive Sony for moving PlayStation HQ to shithole Commiefornia and pumping out woke slop.

Japanese make woke slop too nowadays.

Nothing from Xbox, definitely nothing from Nintendo so it's between Clair obscure and Death stranding 2.

out of 10k physical copy shipped
thank you for your cringe thread, I hope a gacha thread died for it

that's because they have an entire library of local games. Japanese aren't known to be open to the outside world and won't try something that isn't voiced in their language

The Japanese are a proud people. Remember that, turn troon faggots.

e33_shilling.png - 881x1060, 1.12M

Speaking of Baldur's Gate 3, Japan didn't like that game either. It won game of the year lmao
Gacha has given them brainrot, and their birthrate is declining.

Sure. Tell yourself that, if it makes you feel better.

(((Journos))) utterly loathe nintendo so even if nintendo releases normalfag shit they will just ignore it.
They will probably find an excuse to not even have mario kart on the racing game category.

Gacha has given the Japanese brainrot, because they rejected Larian's spectacular and completely degenerated bestiality porn game

Uh, anon.....

finally i there is actually a reason to agree with japan on something. everytime i see these stupid threads i always wonder why and on what grounds. best game of the year "awards" don't mean shit. the co-op in that game was a buggy steamy pile of crap

If you need exemple of mental illness this is some of them Non-stop shitting an anonymous board as a hater, just look at vtuberniggers and how mentally ill they are and tell me this fags aren't the same kind of retards or worse the same peoples altogether

best selling PS5 game of it's launch window

It's doing alright. It's also sold out everywhere.

Why you talking about journos when Nintendo can't even win any Famitsu awards.

the game wasn't made for japan. thats why there are thousands of Chigyu games like Silent Protaganist with Sword seventeen for japan.

Japanese only play gacha mobile and Nintendo nowadays, what's the surprise.

pumping out woke slop

Anon, it's the censorship they won't forgive. They just don't care about the woke slop. The animosity is over censorship.

Japan doesn't play good games unless they're made by fellow Japanese.

Flopped in Glorious Nihongo

BASED. The last thing we need is for JRPGs to all become QTE parryslop

Japan didn't like the gay porn game that the west gave glowing praise and hundreds of accolades and awards to, all given by game journalists that seethe when a woman is sexually attractive.

That's not the own you think it is. You just said the west is full of faggots that lust over gay sex and fugly women.

redditxpedition 33 is not a jrpg albeit

Using Anon Babble when we literally have FOUR KNOWN SCHIZOS on Anon Babble

Is it because all of those schizos are snoys? Is that why you refuse to acknowledge them and went outside of Anon Babble?

User was banned for replying to himself about 30 times

Anon, those are baby numbers one of the snoys has responded to himself over 150 times. That same snoy also spammed real child porn to get the archives taken down so we couldn't easily point out it was him and source various claims and images to prove he's a lying faggot.

The non-shitposting reason for this is that it's really not that unique. For the average burger that hates anime and doesn't play JRPGs it's like nothing he's seen before. For Japan it's a mix of various JRPGs they've played before and it's alright, just nothing special.
It sold on the level of nothing special.
The story was so close to being unique until they made it FF Tactics but dumber. Should've kept the original concept with the age thing. That was cool.
Gameplay wise it's mainly Mario & Luigi. Not bad by any means, just not world changing like it's claimed.
Visually it's mixed, there's some absolutely beautiful places and designs there but then there's times where it's just lacking in color and seems to fall into the same trappings of modern AAA in terms of visuals. The fog and blur and the like.
Japanese gamers have played these JRPGs before and saw a game that looks fine but not anything unique. A few will try it but it won't be a big deal to them since for them it's just another RPG. Also it's PS5 only in Japan, and most RPG players prefer to play games portably, so it's not going to sell systems either, limiting it's outreach.

japs buy chinese gacha instead.

but how many digital sales?

because I got a picture to show as an example, post yours or kill yourself

kepler isnt the company that made the game. they do a ton of work for several companies.

Famitsutards, how do we cope? do we finally abandon famitsu threads?

Why are nips such slop connoisseurs?

A DS 1 fan said DS 2 is just the same and nothing new or remarkable. No way should it win. GTA is out. So far nothing new out that can hold a figure to it.

cute

If it's not that unique then please point me to every RPG that is on its level, as I'd love to play them as well.

because the creator of hundred line shilled his game too. so he repaided it back and shilled hundred line.

Clea's outfit had bonus cleavage.

It's literally just persona 5 with paper mario timed hits.

But Anon, I am Gay.

so like people have been saying for over a week, it's basically temu persona but for goyim that hate japan and anime and want to feel LE MATURE instead

the game is still better than redditbirth

japan and anime

Try reading it again. Its not japan and anime becuase the original FFs didnt have the cringe uwu onichan!!! type of stuff in it. Its a game closer to the original jrpgs that people liked.

Japanese zoomers only use Steam, but they don't seem to like JRPG's so this might not be their cup of tea either.

or persona 5 just fucking sucks massive cock?

And a better plot, and a better soundtrack, and more engaging gameplay beyond just the combination of those two gameplay elements.

Are there any more RPGs that are just Persona 5 with Paper Mario timed hits?

Why does Anon Babble think Japan's sales matter?

calling literal timed hits duller than nintendo turn based shit is also comical
it really shows westoids have zero standards as long as something makes them feel LE MATURE

physical copies....

Stellar Blade Devs loved it, cope and seethe, Ubisoft.

It's funny how hard you lost culturally, you've been bitching about NetEase for years, especially BG3, and the only thing it's amounted to is showing a NetEase has produced many of the best games of the last few years

Zoomers and Gen-Alpha have completely sided with NetEase made shit in your years long crusade against them
Honestly, you might have helped them, because without you, most people wouldn't even realize NetEase was responsible for kino

It's just tendies being the biggest faggots on the internet, they think they're japanese because they jerk off to pokemon boys.

It's the only country that matters at this point, this game is bragging about 2 million sales worldwide when MH and DQ used to do that on japan physical sales on launch week alone before those series got westernized.
Even after MH got kiked it still sold almost a million physical on japan alone despite the PiS5 being dead as shit there.

monster hunter wilds has still been updating

You can tell it's the same Nintentards who judge BotW/TotK being good games based on purely sales and twitch streamer numbers. Japan almost exclusively plays Nintenbro (amd mobile phone shit) so the cultists use this as their bases to put Nintendo on a pedestal as usual.

Japanese have DOGSHIT taste in games btw and are terrible at them to boot. Want to know why Nitnendo games have excess tutorials in now? Because Japanese players are too braindead and unskilled to play games without them. There's a reason DQ of all things is the most popular gaming series over there: because it's stupidly easy to the retarded Jap can play through it and feel accomplished.

tendies

this frogslop already got announced for the switch 2 by the devs retard

An older series sells well vs a new game

Gee idk anon. But really if japan mattered why do they all play chinese gacha?

this has AAA money behind it, it has no excuse for doing this poorly

siege mentality

I could say a game flopping in Japan is a good sign for the game

The nearly extinct country making shit games is the only one that matters!

LMAO

It is good, you suck, Ubisoft.

why do they all play chinese gacha?

?

Just like real Japanese games will never fully resonate with mainstream western audiences, western games will never fully resonate with mainstream Japanese audiences.

This is okay. Neither side needs to change to accommodate the other.

>The nearly extinct country making shit games

That's gooks.

with paper mario timed hits.

I specified Mario and Luigi since it's more aligned with that than Paper Mario for a reason. Slight difference and nuance to the way it works even if the mechanics are similar that does make how it works rather different.

I'm posting more than that.

2 is replacement level anon, 1.26 is still pretty dire, it's just that Korea is at a biblical-tier disaster of a TFR

it's simply a matter of tastes and trends
if most zoomers like what i don't, that just means there's little common ground and industries catering to you are not probably going to release stuff that i like

the plot is just FFT from aliexpress

I don't see any point in conversing with you if this is the kind of stupid opinion I'm going to get for my efforts.

Thanks for the game suggestions. I was hoping with Clair Obscur being so un-unique you'd have plenty to offer me, but apparently not.

China and Korea are raping and killing nips, that's the only thing that matters.

It wasn't, retard.
A gay sissy tendie journo asked if the game could be on the Scamtendo 2 and the CEO gave a PR answer.

nigga, despite the flop due to costs and shit, shadows sold 2-3 millions copies. zoomers slopped it up good.
ain't even gonna mention bg3

Why does Anon Babble think Japan's sales matter?

Not sure....Lost Odyssey was a Chrono Trigger level game:

Creator of the Final Fantasy series Hironobu Sakaguchi

Noboue Uematzu as composer

Art by fucking Takehiko Inoue the guy who made Vagabond and Slam Dunk

Kiyoshi Shigematsu as writer, a best seller author in Japan

THE GAME WAS ALSO FUCKING GREAT! and it sold peanuts in Japan as well....I'm just glad E33 is doing well here, fuck me what got me to ask my parents to buy me an xbox 360 back then was Lost Odyssey, hate how it flopped

Reminder it flopped on steam too.

Why does Anon Babble get sooooo assblasted whenever some non Nintendo stuff gets universally praised?

when you make a contrarian post you get replies from people wanting to defend the game, it's all about the (You)s

? no one was talking about metaphor

these are alleged worldwide sales from weeks ago on steam, not japan-only, and not physical

funny enough around that time shills were posting an image from inside of a game store with a sticker saying e33 was sold out everywhere they were looking, guess that was a lie too

[L'baguette stops]

Japanese players tried the game, got to the intro, saw all the niggers around Paris, and then refunded. It's an actual phenomenon there, you shouldn't blame japs for not having the level of nigger tolerance westerners have.

the game is rated cero z

What do you like about it?

you shouldn't blame japs for not having the level of nigger tolerance westerners have.

it doesnt appeal to jap sensibilities artistically. the dialogue is probably a dry localization as well.

bulk of media coverage going "take notes bugs, THIS is how you make a JRPG!!!"

ends up selling poorly in Japan

Love the game but completely understand why they wouldn't buy it. Westerners are fucking annoying.

that's the entire male 18-35 population of japan

and the irony of calling people shills and bots while making the same thread over and over again trying to proclaim the game a failure because it sold poorly in Japan even though a majority of games no matter how good they may be always do is wild

the game was on sale on steam when it came out too idiots

NoWokesThanks

Let me guess, controlled opposition?

So guess SE was right and turn based really doesn't sell.

it was never about e33 being good. It was about getting another turn based final fantasy game before we died.

SE says turn based doesn't sell so mainline ff won't be turn based

butthurt gamers claim otherwise

turn based "jrpg" drops and gets fellated by everyone

still flops

Sorry but all I'm seeing is SE being right.

ff15 and it's combat system is the worst thing to happen to Japan since nagasaki.

over 15mil sales vs 2mil.

japan won't play anything that isn't a gacha

Farquaad really got completely mindbroken by this game, huh.

Half the posts in this thread are all just from the same schizo.

almost a decade worth of sales for an existing popular franchise vs almost a month worth of sales for a new series from a new company

E33 will also sell 15 million copies

Delusional.

From what I ask of my jp friends the lack of japanese voice acting is the biggest factor.

BG3 sold 15 million in a much smaller time frame and it got the same amount of journalistic felating.

Doesn't have to sell 15 million copies to be successful, especially if its development cost a fraction of a decade old game. I wouldn't be surprised if it sells 15 million copies within a decade though.

?? reports show it sold faster than most jrpgs combined

BG3 was also #1 for weeks, because it is the most glorified redditor porn game ever made. E33 was never #1 and it will be out of top 10 later this week.

Is Expedition 33 even translated in Japanese? I know that they have an English and a French dub.
I was about to say this. Majority of Japs can't into foreign languages.

FF15 was dead after 1 week though and that's the primary comparison. I was just using BG3 as a reference point because it's delusional to not assume a game like E33 won't push that many sales in its lifetime.

good voice acting is universal, just read subs

Japanese are not like that. They don't know foreign languages. They can't into subtitles.

If I can watch anime and play jap games subbed they can play this shit subbed, especially since both dubs are fantastic
