i don't know but people sure are talkin about this shit a lot.
t. someone who plays shooters primarily

It is. It's GOTY, even game of the decade. Now that that's out of the way, let's continue shitting on Maellefags for being retards.

Yes, it's literally pic related

Sell me on this game anon

I bought it purely because Anon Babble won't stop sucking it's dick and simultaneously hating it. It must be really good.

Luna and Sciel came back as the same people when Maelle brought them back. Why are speedreaders acting as though the rest of the lumierians aren't themselves when revived

Look at the picture above your post. It's a good game. Unless you really despise 4 niggas in a row or sperg out at the idea of having control over your defensive measures in the game having parries/dodges, you will absolutely adore it, because it does everything well.

it's Occult Kino, from the sacred number 33 to the hidden allegories within allegories. Clearly someone in the Dev team is a high ranking Freemason.
This is what Kojima tries so hard to do but Kojima is literally

Babby read Manly P. Hall once.

Kojima understands surface level symbolism but not the deeper meanings, which makes sense since only the select few have the key to decipher the deeper meaning of occult symbology.

The base gameplay is average turn based RPG shit, except they've added a lot a mechanics to keep it interesting. You have timed hits for your skills, the ability to dodge and parry enemy attacks, some enemy attacks are dodged via jumping (which you can counter for damage), some enemy attacks need something called a gradient counter to avoid damage, and there are super moves you can use after a few turns. The game lets you free aim and shoot bullets that cost MP, where you can attack enemy weakspots. Each of the 6 party members all have a unique gimmick/resource in battle.

The music is 10/10 perfection, assuming you like orchestral compositions.

The story has really unique worldbuilding and a compelling story. Some people may not like the Act 3 change, but the ending is something that's been debated since it came out and I think it's something people will be discussing for awhile.

All characters are great, as is the voice acting. All three women in the party are sexy and you can unlock bikini skins for everyone, male and female. There's no gay shit and the only black character dies within 10 minutes.

That one black character wasn't even that bad either.

Saves his mate

Parries an endgame enemy

Dies trying to wake his mate up from being shellshocked

No

Yup

Do you like parrying in Sekiro, MGR, Hi-fi rush, DMC but find moving the analogue stick, positioning and attacking to be too hard?
Do you find the variety of different parry animations and interactions for parrying different types of attacks too polished?
then this game has is for you. spam the same parry animation and the game will auto counter for you.

If you turn a blind eye to at least 33 plot holes that don't make sense whatsoever, sure.

Hard to take IGN Japan seriously when they give Ass Creed Shadows an 8/10

bros I fucking love the French

Thanks anon. I will look into it
I like slow games and fast games

They gave Saarfield a 10/10, kek

The only thing severely overrated is the OST. Then again I also feel like Near Tomato has a 6/10 OST at best. I liked the jazzy gestral song with heavy sax focus, the flying waters theme, and the general oohs and aahs and alines ambience. None of that droning ooohing was memorable, but it built an ambience. Basically it is necessary, but not noteworthy and that is ok. Because if it were noteworthy then it would alter and effect the tone of the scenes it is included in. Something can be "good" by being understated and mediocre to not siphon focus away from something else that is fantastic. It just doesn't make sense to praise the mediocre element.

The superior elements at play are general sound design and visual effects/cinematography/va work. The music is tertiary behind these.

I think what illustrates this the best is that when the OST tried to go big with the renoir fight it didn't land very well and felt more distracting than exciting with the shouting straining vocals.

removing her breasts from the swim suit model.

not based at all. this should be a crime.

if you consider a 10/10 a temporally relevant measure of hype for something people want to play, then i suppose it is. if you consider 10/10 the perfect video game, then it's not, but it's still pretty good, especially compared to other jrpgs.

Judging from how many threads shillbots are spamming, probably not.

consider 10/10 the perfect video game

no one thinks this unless your IQ is sub 80

I pirated it to see what the fuss is all about. It is just a shitty RPG. I've played a lot of those.

Now fuck off, bot.

Yes it really is.

Thanks Rahjeet

what?
if 10/10 != perfect then don't fucking use it you low IQ spastic.

the fact that she's a giga flatty makes it even better

autistic retard, bad combination

Yes. Even Asmongold is planning on finishing it on stream. He's never done that with a turnbased JRPG. He claims he finished Metaphor off stream and he has 400 hours on it due to leaving it on overnight a few times but I doubt he finished it, it's an extremely boring game.

400 hours from leaving it on overnight a few times

No it doesn't pedo.
She not flat she has full perky breasts but the faggot devs removed them from the swimsuit. how are you so gay you're ok with that?

I watched some gameplay and it looked like your average jrpg menu battler except you also have qtes i dun geddit

swimsuit uses a different character model

yeah that's bullshit

you have perky breasts fat fuck

Asmongold

who the fuck cares about that jeet?

how are you so retarded you don't know how skins work?
every outfit is a model swap, usually swapping every part of the model but the head module.
That's how games work and yes the model has different proportions and different rigging.

It’s my second favorite game of all time after ER. It’s pure art. Legit don’t think they’ll be able to recapture this feeling. But that’s okay. I’ll remember this game forever.

yea

This game is such a technical disaster and the UE graphics are so devoid of artistic value I would never call it "art".

Nah
And the "painters and artists" or w/e shit Is cringier than any weeb rpg

top 2 games of all time from the last 3 years

Holy fucking zoomer

Her breasts are the same size, they just look smaller due to the looser fit.

The swimsuit is completely suctioned up her azzcrack, no way they would downsize her already small tits

Bad game. I didn't realize how deprived people were until they started praising this as a master piece. Maybe they'll realize how foolish they've been in a month after the honeymoon phase

Its good, all the hype come from people that basically don’t play rpgs or hasn’t since final fantasy 10 for example.

You're full of shit.
She has breasts and they removed them in the swimsuit skin.
she's flat as fuck in that thing.

It's FF9 as a modern game. With Souls parries.

It's literally just loose vs form fitting clothing retard

nostalgiafag becomes mindbroken because his fatlas or obscure decades old game is irrelevant to modern people.

Every year that passes your game favorite game becomes even more obscure, remember that.

it's none of these things lol

Do they not let you use her default hair with the swimsuit? I've never seen an image of that before.

Every year that passes your game favorite game becomes even more obscure

And that's a good thing

no bra = need to breed

you can't convince me this isn't a bot post

A "souls parry" is a slow clunky animation that triggers a scripted event interaction with the enemy.
now the Sekiro parry is an "Action game parry". a responsive gamey mechanic that puts you in a guard recoil animation and nullifies all damage. only triggering enemy stagger on certain moves if at all.

I'd give it a solid 9/10.
The music is great, the gameplay is great, the story is great, it's fun, there's no obvious plugs for DLC, there's no real huge faults at all that I can think of from my time playing, everything fit together well, pacing was fantastic, and I WANTED to keep playing the whole way through, I don't remember any specific point being a slog, and even the post-game stuff was enjoyable cause there were methods put in to basically get your characters to turbo-supermax in every regard.

-1 for french

No not at all. I'd give it an 8/10. It's solid worth a play. Giving it 9/10 is acceptable but anyone giving it a 10/10 is not being truthful.

nah. 7/10 is the score I'd give it. Its pretty good.

Either I'm out of touch, or this game is being aggressively shilled and memed
feels fake

Fantasy environment

Overworld

'Airship'

Niggas in a row

Blue mage

Souls like telegraphed attacks + parry

Explain why you think otherwise.

yeah but you still use the same base model to build off of

this is the most delusional cope.

I tried it on goy pass.
Had to uninstall it after 30 minutes of playing. Blurry QTE slop. Hard pass

AA studio shills game on every single social media platform, even going so far as shilling on 8/v/ for some reason

Maybe the game is just good.

I uninstalled after that stupid shit in the prologue where you have to carry bags of sand.

I haven't played it yet but the reveal trailer was pretty captivating, I rewatched it multiple times and I don't even like 4-niggas-in-a row. I think it just has a style that draws people in and makes them fanboys. Undertale kinda did that too (but with a totally different style)

You can pay a jeet farm like 20 cents and they'll shill all day anywhere and everywhere. Since france is full of browns they were able to save 10 cents and do it all in house.

She still has visible cleavage in the swimsuit. Even if she is flat. But you can stare down top into her swimsuit and see the cleavage of her AA-cups.

Good think marketers focus on other image boards instead of Anon Babble. Those damned smaller image boards, discussing the game as if it isn't a huge marketing campaign!

Never hurts to cover all your bases

spbp

everyone in this this thread is a marketer

Maelle didnt personally know all of them dipshit, how many times are you going to post this

Why does Eric keep pushing this slop game?

isn't this game like...5 hours long? every i know beat it in a day

Its a 7-8/10 JRPG that through various tricks and some legitimately good hiring of unknown talent (the composer is the big one) was able to make itself look presentable enough to break out of the "anime ghetto" and make the broader market realize that they actually still liked JRPGs and FF13 being bad over a decade ago doesn't mean to genre is outdated.
So its a fine game getting showed with praise from the sheer novelty of it.

It's a meh "j"rpg that gets rated higher than it deserves because normalfags hate anime artstyles and Japan

Its closer to 35-40, 60 if you do all the side content, 50 if you good at the game.

Did you poopsock and skip all cutscenes?

Now watch the launch trailer. Things won't have context for you to connect. The two trailers draw you in really well with the music syncing.

good, nips are trash these days
