I can't believe the shills are right

Decide fuck it i'll give Expedition 33 a fair shot

Mfw 47 hours later the credits roll and Esquie is my home boy for life.

I can't believe it. They actually did it. I felt like i was a teenager playing Final Fantasy X or Lost Odyssey again. How the fuck did these frogs manage what Squares stubborn has has refused to try for nearly 25 fuckin' years with final fantasy?
You faggots were right. Its good, hell its great. I can't believe i nearly fell for all the jealous Indians counter shilling the first 10/10 game i've played since like Titan Fall 2 eight fucking years ago. Maybe there is still hope for man.

As the credits rolled and i thought how the story was over, i'd never see these characters again, hear this music for the first time again and have those story reveals going in blind ever again i felt sad in a way i havent since i finished Final Fantasy 8 when i was like 13. What a great god damn videogame.

also Lune is best girl, this is not a debate, i need that hairy hapa puss sitting on my face right now.

Full pic for scientific reasons

hairy haba pussy

Her pussy is clean shaved thobeit.

Still not playing your game, shill

That subtle tiny lisp she has

SHES SO FUCKING CUTE GOD DAMN MARRY ME LUNE!!!

Waifu of the decade.

also Lune is best girl

For me it's crispy Alicia.

Mid ass game. Will be forgotten when the next RPG slop comes out.

remember that at least 75% of the posters on Anon Babble dont play games. They think Anon Babble itself is a game, its like they're learning how to do mass media disinfo via discord or something, thats the game for them. You're the game.

Saar together we will end the china devil and begin the pavnagah century!

Made for BWC

You'll be defending the next RPG slop the same way too.

french AND asian

you won't even be able to find it under that piss smelling crotch beard

*BBC

Good thread.

yeah it's pretty damn good. i think it's a bit overrated but Anon Babble in particular underrates the hell out of it for some reason.

How the fuck did these frogs manage what Squares stubborn has has refused to try for nearly 25 fuckin' years with final fantasy?

Because the actual message of the game is "Sqaure Enix sucks and we love Final Fantasy so we decided to make our own!"

the director has some sick dmc5 combo videos on his private youtube, this is the rare case an actual videogame enjoyer rose to the top

Where was the blackjack and hookers?

The only actual moment where maybe your videogame prowess could matter in your resume

fortunately for them, they're frogs and not japs otherwise square enix would go full nintendo on their asses with some retroactive patent bs, lol

painted Alicia is best girl

BGC

Anon Babble can't stand to think that a western game can be superior to their japanese ones.

how does a working adult even have time to play a 50 hour game

working

it's actually the opposite and people here constantly wish death upon the japanese

If you work 8 hours 5 days a week and sleep 8 hours 7 days a week that leaves 72 hours for free time. So easily.

what are you Chinese? you can fit some hours a day

I honestly prefer the real deal.

Wrong

Big Gaulish Cock?

8.5 hours (lunch break included) + 30min commute back and forth + preparing food + eating food + exercise + regular housework

So then 50-60 hours of free time. Still doable.

you get maybe about 3-4 hours of gaming in a weekday, and that's only if you only game and don't do anything else or have a social life

how does a working adult even have time to play a 50 hour game

The entire development team listed their favourite vidya on the company website. It was clear from day 1 that this was a passion project, I'm just surprised it blew up the way it did. Even the devs in the interview said they were expecting to hit a niche market.

she was too good for that world and family.

Game is truly a masterpiece.

Why does this game look like a WEG?

those niggers die a few minutes later

well, lucien looks like a bro

The realest nigga I ever knew, died like a bro too.
Pour one out for my brotha Lucien.

I think their trick was to make every character likable und their motives understandable. You can think Maelle is in the wrong for wanting to flee into a fantasy world instead of facing her real life issues. HOWEVER, you get where she's coming from. She lived with these people for half of her life. She has friends and people in the painting that don't blame her for her brother's death.
You can hate Verso for being a lying prick but you get where he's coming from, too. He sees his family suffering due to the painting and he just wants to end it. And to him, the people in the painting aren't real. They are constructs.
Next to the music, the writing is definitely this game's strong suit.

Story's shit but the game is great otherwise. 7/10 for the story after Act 2. 10/10 for everything else. 11/10 for the music.

Time for Lune's daily cleaning before bed. Getting licking, Anon.

you got filtered, it's a bait to make chuds mald, all

I mean shit like this is KINO - what more can be said for the music, presentation and the fight itself? Better than 95% of jrpg final boss fights (and this isn't even the final boss!)

Especially when you recontextualize that you shouldn't have been fighting her after all.

How much is the french government paying for this campaign?

I love how she just has a big gaping whole in her heart.

Sort of, but the issue is that video game playing is absolutely NOT valued by the industry, so even in trying to get into the video game industry it's not something you could put on your resume.

Another day of thread inspection, all my ads doing well, all seems oka- WHAT THE FUCK

whole

at least learn the language youre getting paid to shill in

I don't understand why what you wrote is so difficult for developers to do or understand.
There's an element of execution to be fair, the story can be conveyed in a less interesting way, but most stories don't even have what you're talking about.

Hole, anon, ok.
It's a typo, it happens.

it's a solid 8/10 game and will probably be goty, just look at all the other garbage released this year and you see why people enjoy this.

Two negatives become positive.

I'd like to rest my head on those cushy pillows.

Felt the same way a week after release. Been a damn long time since a modern game made me think there's still hope for this industry. A month later, I still can't help but think about the game every fucking day. People might throw the word around without actually thinking it through, but for me this was a legit masterpiece.

N

that mechanical shit on her feet is turning me off, seriously, was it necessary? they could've just done tribal markings or something instead and then it would've been sexy

I don't know. Maybe some companies are afraid that people might not like it when the villain is somewhat sympathetic.
Maybe a lot of writers are trash and lack the skills to write such characters in a believable way.
It's a bit of a mystery.
But in the end, most JRPGs are geared towards a certain audience and they are used to shitty, clicheed writing. Give them anything else and they won't get it. Especially something like nuance

The last time I felt this way was in 2021, and in 2017 before that. Hope I won't have to wait another 4 years for the next one.

absolute kino

She really hits that ghost girl fetish-spot for me

i think i finna cum ….!!!

tfw she's still voiced by Jennifer English, only using a raspy voice and a million voice filters.

Huh. The things you are noticing during the second playthrough.

drop this and you'll have another 1-1.5 hours a day

but I'll get fat!

eat less and you'll also save some time and money

And to him, the people in the painting aren't real. They are constructs.

It's less that and more that he believes ending the Canvas is the lesser of two evils after all this time and seeing his family suffer because of it, given he cruelly has real Verso's memories. If you find his journal log dated 67 years earlier you can see how he loved Julie and thought Aline might be able to repaint her so they can be happy again, which is a far cry from the attitude he has by the time the game takes place.

no good games were released in '21 or '17 though

a masterpiece

Eh. Act 3 was severely lacking but the game is a solid 7/10 for sure.
What gave me hope for the industry is the fact that people working in the industry can still make a game like that. It means that not all is lost and you might still get good games.
In general, I was also glad about the fact that they thought their audience was smart enough for a story that isn't just good vs. evil. You don't get many stories like that in any medium nowadays, everyone must either be a good guy or a villain. And god forbid you give the good guy real character flaws or the antagonist an actual good reason for why he does what he does

im surprised this game isnt cancelled considering lune is the most obvious foot fetish vidya girl ever made

Can verso fuck Lune? He can have casual sex with Sciel, but I didn't get any event like that with Lune

Lune is a cuckquean

that's the safe horny fetish instead of actual sexual body parts

Face first in datass.

That's literally what they do. You might as well curse at a river because it's full of water

How is this game SO FUCKING GOOD?!?! I've been pacing myself and taking it in small chunks. Only part-way through chapter 2 because I don't want it to end. But it is just incredible. I love the little moments at the camp sight. Esquie is so goddamn wholesome man, I love that fat retard like you wouldn't believe.

Get out of this thread before you get spoiled, retard.

Sciel's available in Act 2, Lune only in Act 3 and if you haven't slept with Sciel already

i love feet sluts

people that haven't even finished act 2

What the fuck kind of G with a capital Goyslop have you all been playing since april the 24th?
how did you not see it was GOTY from the first reveal?
Do you really all have such shit judgment?

That fucking nigger was one of the good ones bro. He literally died trying to get Gustave's head out lf his own ass, twice. He didn't deserve to die like that.

I'm not reading anything luckily. Just came here to post and collect (you)s.

Ah, a great addition to my folder.

Who would give up fucking Sciel in Act 2?
She seems like the most enthusiastic fuck.

Lune belly

shaved

Balak is gonna FREAK!

I wonder if this part was inspired by Endwalker's final boss. It reminded me of it.

Square has unfortunately convinced themselves that the things that people liked about old Final Fantasy, that were iconic and defining traits of the series, like world maps, turn based combat, fun rosters full of characters of different ages and species, were actually somehow the things that were holding them back.

I want that scratchy stubble on my face

Get out of these threads and finish the game anon.

For me it's the part at 15:16 when the OST changes before leading into the main Phase 2 theme.

Gustave got merked cuz the game needed a gnostic plot twist

image source bro? Also uffff maybe I will buy it fucking shills!!!!

devs made Lune out to be a bug collecting nerd until it was too late

Anon here, silly old me uploaded the wrong pic! Here's the canon one :)

no pubes

I sleep

And you'll be here crying about it the same way. Welcome to the rest of your life, loser.

Can i tone down all that fucking fog?

So did Gustave fuck Lune, or...?

Square's been chasing that "cinematic experience" dragon for so long they forgot they're supposed to be making RPGs, not interactive cutscene simulators. Somewhere between FFX and XVI they decided old fans weren't worth catering to. World maps? Gone. Party variety? Gone. Combat depth? LOL. At this point it's like they're ashamed of being Final Fantasy.

He glazed her but whole

Oh no no no no no no...

Get over yourself the game is good but it isnt great.

Make sure you put Gustave in the silliest outfit you have, makes the cutscene funnier

let's put final fantasy in a modern city controlled by the mafia becuz that was the in thing in anime at the time. lol

square really thought as long as they slapped a chocobo in any pile of shit people would buy it

edit

Fucking retard

I held off on this game despite the overwhelming hype because of the parryslop. Should I give it a chance nonetheless? Does the game make provisions for those who want to keep the game strictly turn-based and no QTE bullshit?

QTE's are built in but the windows are very generous. Especially the dodge.
The game is pretty rough at the start you can feel how indie it is. It gets better when you get to the island but its just a good game. Do not believe this psyop bullshit about it being goty or even close to one of the best rpgs

no. parries are defense in this game. you die in 1-2 hits to bosses and random mooks otherwise

Yes. There is a picto which disables AP gain on parry, but adds AP gain on getting hit. So you can easily just keep dodging (bigger window) and get AP if you fail. Also a fuckton of defensive options.

Oh, I thought they were all free-tier AI slop. A 10/10 game anyway.

I am pretty bad at parrying and I miss 90% of the time and I managed to beat normal. Being good at it definitely makes the game easier but you can build your characters around it by having a tank and a healer.

dodging is the same type of QTE, retard. he doesn't want that either.

moments men are allowed to cry.jpg

I hope you people had the decency and culture of playing with the original french language instead of some soiled english va and text.

Marchecucks want me to believe this meant nothing

So those who come after should just be genocided bro XD.

On expert only, and even then only in Act 1. Just play on normal or story mode if you want to ignore parrying.

I was so fucking happy when he died. Dude was the most vanilla wet blanket character. Waste of fucking space

Maelle is the one that comes after, but she can't do that if everyone stays alive

nonsensical AI-generated letters and sentences

kek looks like AI-speak

I didn't cry when Gustave died even thought I liked him. I cried when Monoco and Esquie hugged Verso though

i'm on normal and get 1-2 shot by every boss

ironically this game is the solution to the AAA bloated budget problem. The 400 million dollar Concord or AC Yasuke model is obviously no longer sustainable. How do we get gamers to buy AAA slop at half the budget? Shill expedition 69 as game of the year, have a bunch of tasteless normies exclaim how they would gladly pay full 100 dollars for it and boom we now have AAA slop at a fraction of the quality and cost, suddenly profitable again. Gamers are the biggest retard consumers. The same people who bought DLC while bitching about it.

is it explained why she can glide

God damn The Reacher is tall as fuck.

Are you using Pictos that give you hp and defense?

she uses magic

english

Lune's Feet Shop is closed for you. Look how disappointed she is. Sacré bleu...

He said THOSE, faggot. You think he wanted all his little kid apprentices to get erased?

All the Expedition mottos are meant to have a double meaning that's revealed by the end. Just like "if one falls (Verso) we continue (the rest of the family)", so does that who comes after refer to Alicia and her memories of Lumière living on in her and allowing her to move on from the past and start healing while never forgetting the life she led as Maelle.

That's so cool and thematic and shit nigga but the people gibbed on the beach didn't give a shit for your psycho family.
The swords of Lumière fought with them.

yeah, i'm around level 40 and my characters have 1-1.5k hp. i dont feel like booting the game to check the substats though. parrying is essential in this game

original French language

The original language of the game is English

I disliked Gustave when they just got to the Continent because I thought he was a coward bitch with flimsy beliefs, but he clearly grew his pair of balls back when he realized Maelle was still alive. I started liking him again after that.

t. shill

If you didnt use the French voices + English subtitles you didnt beat the game.

I didn't really care about Gustave, but he was a thousand times better than that lying, sneaky motherfucker

My daily routine is sleep>work>eat>work>play vidya>sleep
Working wont fix an antisocial personality, its the other way round

There's no future inside the Canvas, though. It's a rough deal, but what are you gonna do? Keep it going until Alicia rots away then Renoir destroys it anyway? That's a century tops, probably less given she'd be less powerful and given to staying inside the canvas than Aline. The best resolution is unfortunately not in the game

game has three songs called Une vie à t'aimer, Une vie à peindre and Une vie à rêver

Une vie à t'aimer ie A Life to Love is Verso's ending

Une vie à peindre ie A Life to Paint is Maelle's ending

Une vie à rêver ie A Life to Dream is the name of Painted Alicia's letter in which she wonders if real Alicia will find a way to satisfy everyone, a golden ending of sorts

such ending doesn't actually exist

Maybe if Gustave had lived and convinced Alicia to leave the Canvas of her own volition instead of Verso sacrificing himself for her like he did irl. Oh well.

using subtitles at all

not playing the game it was meant to be played (french only, no subtitles, game menu in french too)

You didn't even beat the tutorial

I did do that but I haven't beaten the game yet

so does that who comes after refer to Alicia

No it fucking doesn't. The Expeditioners fought for their freedom. That sea of corpses at the Monolith, that bridge of dead corpses, the fucking things that let us sling and climb all over the place, they didn't fight that hard just so some faggot Greek gods could stop feeling bad. They want to live as well.

That's extremely low. There are quite a few high level pictos you should have access to that'll put you in the two to three thousand range at least.
You'll still get one-shot.

La langue d'origine est le français, espèce de débile américain!

Not my problem. I will NOT play the fucking piano and that's my final word.

Why can't other game devs get the message and realize they don't need to add a token black gorilla qween to the cast of MCs if they just add a cute hapa instead?

You WILL play the piano and you WILL be happy.

the dodge is for people who don't like QTE, most of the sweaty expert players are doing no dodge runs

he promises and jokes around with Maelle about "running faster than you" next time they see the white-haired man

he stands his ground and protects her instead as Maelle cries about him promising her

Sad kino is still kino

Here you go, poojeet-anons, now you can play the game even after a childhood of malnourishment impacting on your cognitive skills and reflexes.

Did you guys level HP and equip hp pictos?
I was playing on expert and ended up the game with 40 health on my 3 main party members 99 on both scaling stats and then the rest on might, skipped luck since i had a lot of crit % from the lumina board (extra crit to burning, extra crit to defenceless blablabla). Finished at level 91.
Then for pictos i would just equip the expensive shit i wanted from the lumina board instead of putting even a good hp picto so i ended up having 3-4k hp. But with shields and not being super bad at the game i was managing.
Which was fine and dandy against almost everything (painted pain included) until Simon.

such ending doesn't actually exist

It could exist easily, but the endings we did get were designed to make people talk about the game endlessly, for obvious reasons

Use the Maelle skill that absorbs damage from other characters

The picto that reduces damage in 50%

Spam revive on her with Lune

I guess the problem is getting there

HP Pictos are definitely the most useful ones.
Everything else can be mitigated by buffs

Alicia can just repaint Lumiere as a nice world as it was intended to be. She just needs to fucking leave.

Esquie's VA who voices him in both languages and also mocapped Gustave, Verso and parts of Renoir admitted the English voices came first and the French dub was based on them.

Not the same chroma, not the same people.

The game's canon language is English.

where the hell is this scene from?
As far as I'm aware I 100%d the game but don't remember it

Another totally organic, believable post that doesn’t sound exactly like every other post shilling the game.

To be specific, he mocapped the real Renoir, someone else mocapped painted Renoir.
Anyway, all the best scenes - Gustave death, Verso piano, Renoir hug - were all his doing. He's a real G.

I dont hear the piano dear brother...

Everyone except Lune and Sciel already had their chroma decomposed and even then you can argue they're not the exact same people.

Unrealistic standards in gaming
You're in luck because I fucking hate Americans and always go out of my way to play every game in its original language.
E33 was written in English, the French dub was a later addition because French people complained and based on what I've heard it isn't very good

This post reads like an advertisement
Because it is...
God this website is dead.

Do you think there could be DLC for this game?

So I should help the genocidal retard who ruined everything? LOL NO. Sit on that piano bitch.

Why the fuck there are so many weapons and pictos? Literally 99% of all items are pure trash, evey character has 1 or 2 usabled weapons per act and the rest is absolute irredeemable trash. Also, by act 3 I had so many pictos I gave up and kept using the old ones because rearranging everything every time a new one popped up was just too much work.

Medalum

well tbf he got mortally wounded by a sneak attack so he had no choice

I had 2 real toons and Sciel which was there only for buffs so anytime i got a new picto i would slap it on her so that she would "activate" it.
Then whenever i had accrued say 10 lumina to spend (or a particular good picto came along) i would take a moment to shuffle around some shit.
But yeah you aint just stopping after every picto and after every couple lumina

So you can experiment with wacky builds based around status effects by shooting or reviving at the beginning of combat or applying buffs by healing by purposefully starting combat with low HP or solo runs or whatever else you fancy. You can tell the devs were fans of FFVIII and how utterly broken you can make your party members in that game.

Somewhat but I level might and the 2 scaling stats before VIT

I'm just not attracted to Lune. I can't help it.

He was dying.
He gave her that typical shake of the head that characters in movies give when they know they are doomed and that are just gonna try to buy some time.

That's all very interesting but going to need that pic uncropped.

I would say the majority of Pictos have their place. The least useful ones (+5% gradient on item use) at least have like 1 or 2 points so you can just activate them without thinking.

I think I rotated between 3 weapons on each character when I was at the endgame/Simon. Especially when I had to abandon my shields+shield buffs build for him.

read the thread anon

Medalum

Okay REAL TAWK here.
I fought the arena with Gustave because I wanted to screenshot the GUSTAVE WINS image, but it autosaved. I now don't have Medallum and I don't want to wait until leveling to beat Golgra for it.
Any way to cheat it in? Any mod that lets you edit inventory?

Psst hey anon
mediafire.com/file/gz68cwqss26eda3/Lune Alts (4K).zip/file

I love Alicia and Maelle so much it's unreal. Verso didn't deserve either of them .

Just reload.

You deserve your fate for not fighting with your best girl.

Do it for Alicia, the person that isn't actually doomed to die and real Verso who sacrificed himself so she could live.

which moment in the game had the most SOVL?

I'm in Act 2 now so...

mod probably
That said for how good Medalum is (and is very good) is also only good for trash.
Its great to just virtuoso fencer's flurry turn one and wipe a trash pack saving you time but any combat that lasts more than a couple rotations medalum is simply inferior to literally any other weapon in the game. Well thats a bit of an exaggeration but you know what i mean.
Its also too braindead, pick one you find more interesting, like virtuoso on parry and rock on, Medalum is good but its also a meme

sacrifices himself to save her once

fake version sacrifices himself AGAIN to save her

Painted Alicia is a cutie, real Alicia is an ungrateful cunt who would rather kill herself than give her "brother" what he wants.

What weapon/win pose do you get as Gustave, anyway?

maelle is my nuker. i just got the 3 shields on death pictos from the crow boss though

Maelle asking verso if he let Gustave die on purpose and Verso actually saying that yes he did

Then you realize renoir had already won and they were fighting a losing battle so whatever he did doesn't matter.
Him not siding with them leads to the exact same ending, just years later down the line once they are all gommaged.

I guess a even a broken cock is right once a decade.

Play on easy
Anyway I prefer the weapon you get from painted Alice, it gives you virtuose stance after a counter

Have you met our lord and saviour, Stalum? Do you enjoy applying +20 burn stacks per turn and enjoying +20% stacking damage per turn (with double burn)?

Beginning of Act 3 with Maelle's parents talking about how great a person she'll be as we get Alicia's theme and flashbacks to all big scenes involving her up to that point

muh medalum

the game did you a favor, if you use it you didnt beat the game

"The Choice". Spent way longer than I thought I would mulling over the options before making my decision

Have you met our lord and saviour, Stalum?

I quit War Thunder years ago, thank God

I never found the use for the excalibur weapon that totally shoots lightning that the gestral sells you in the village.
It mentions in the description that gestral kids love those so i assumed i could give it to some of the kids there or whatever but never found an npc to take it.
Did i just get scammed?

I didn't level might at all seemed pointless as it barely does anything. Better to just do HP/Luck if you need crit and the two stats your weapon is scaling with.

She's got the 1000 mile cock stare.

She's a dyke doe

Might is pointless unless you have maxxed your other scaling, its there in case you want to switch weapons a lot but if thats needed i would just respec, finished the game with like 50 respec stones left and i wasn't even buying them on merchants.

1000 dildo stare

She is a lesbian. her gf is pretty hot as well iirc

Used Melarum for most of the game because I didn't research anything online

Your stats were best (only?) used to increase your damage IMO. Put 99 into your best scaling stat, 99 in the 2nd, the rest in the 3rd.

she is a dyke and fucks the BG3 mocap director (female)

You use it to unlock the rest of Gustave's skills

I got so infuritated by the Painted Verso being such a piece of shit that I forgot at times that the Painter Verso sacrificed himself. However would the Painter Verso have liked Alicia to make her own choice, or would he have wanted her to become what he wanted her to be? I also can't just part with everyone, Lune and Sciel and the Gestrals are all still themselves, they didn't get erased. Also just because the Gestrals resurrect it doesn't make the new versions fake. The people of Lumiere can come back as well and be left to live their lives happily, with only Lune and Sciel knowing what happened.

obeseheart

yuck!

That's a beard.

Based OP. this game is the gift that keeps on giving since even weeks after finishing it we get entertainment by anti-shill buckbroken faggots. I look forward to the seethe from E33 winning goty, and plenty more seethe for many years to come.

i-its fotm.. n-no one will remember this game in a few months..

top fucking kek

40min cinematic boss fight

This is what fucking zoomers like in games? What the fu k is this absolute trash? I watched 4 minutes and clicked off

I finished the game being 1.5 million chroma on the red.
I was missing that amount to fully buy the inventories of the 2 last gestral merchants i found (renoir's drafts and eterna night sanctuary).
Granted it was just collectionism as the game was over and it was leveled up pictos and useless weapons but i never expected to be missing SO MUCH chroma. I didnt specifically grind but i also dont feel like i was skipping combats

Guess I’ll be the first out of 200+ post to praise those cute feet lmao

streamable.com/7hx72i

I haven't played this game, and my PC is not going to have a good time with it. But I like that there is a girl fully focused on a foot fetish

I forgot at times that the Painter Verso sacrificed himself

Dying was his primary goal, I wouldn't call it sacrifice.

if you miss that "start in Virtuous stance" weapon from the Gestral Village arena shit, how do you get it?

I played FFX as a teenager as well and it's one of my fav FFs ever and one of my most memorable nostalgic summers ever. If what you say is true then you've really sold it on me to give 33 a go

FUCKING DEGENERATE

Jarum is better than Medalum anyway. And you'll probably get Medalum before long anyway if you're in the middle of act2.

beat chief thunder thighs in a duel with maelle
(she has like 2 million health and will one shot you if you fuck up the parry lmao)

You have to challenge Golgra with Maelle, which is annyoing to say the least

i think you can get it if you beat golga

idk gow opening from 14 years ago looks betteryoutube.com/watch?v=wUyQeiTGxsM

Didn't OP say

just like FFX

You should've known exactly what were you watching.

...you've gotta be fucking kidding me

Simon attacks at light speed

c-cool

do it, don't fall for the corpo shills shitting on the game. you won't be disappointed, leave the threads so you don't get spoiled

How the fuck did these frogs manage what Squares stubborn has has refused to try for nearly 25 fuckin' years with final fantasy?

They didn't have a whole big-ass corporation above them.

Don't let Gustave die

Give letter to Maelle/Alicia

finish off Painter Renoir and have Paintress Maelle absorb his Chroma

Fight The Paintress and send the mother back

Come back to Lumiere in a triumphant return, celebrate, then Maelle leaves willingly as well saying a temporary goodbye to Gustave, telling him she finally found the home she was looking for when she left with Expedition 33

Painted Verso did everything wrong.

she and sciel have chroma tattooed into their body, mentioned in the prologue where you can see Sciel among the dancers and sophie mentions it
I guess Lune is just using hers to glide.

Not OP, but this game feels heavily inspired by FFX, horrible minigames included. Still seething about the Chocobo Race.

sciel is too fucking hot to have no porn

Wouldn't even mind it not winning best story (even though 95% of games coming out nowadays wish they spawned this much discussion about its narrative and characters) as long as it wins best OST and GOTY
youtu.be/Rof660OEA3E

If it's your first playthrough you're doing yourself a favour not using it.

I used Brulerum instead of Medalum. Never used Medalum.
I did use Maelle at the arena and did get Medalum after the arena. But I used Brulerum to win and I kept using Brulerum. I even used Brulerum for the abyss boss, tower trials, and flying manor.
I think Brulerum is great.

Medalum let's you start in Virtuous. Which is cool and all. But that's only a turn1 advantage. Why are people treating it like the best weapon ever or something?

Hitler, a young and aspiring Painter, gets rejected from the art world

he rises in the ranks of the Writers with his debut best seller Mein Kampf, advocating for a Final Solution to the Painter Question

learning of their treachery and inhumanity, he arranges the construction of the Gustav gun, to erase Paris in righteous revenge

She's the cuck choice that's why.

My FUARKING hero! TPD

surprisingly kino
it's definitely better than anything else you can get that early. otherwise you need lune in the party to get reliable virtuoso stances with maelle early in fights

Ok fine shills I bought it.
It better be good like Squaresoft kino or I'm refunding it.

I just replaced my GPU, but it doesn't have much dedicated VRAM compared to the system requirements.

anon, it shits on anything square has put out on the last 15 years

chromatic braseleur

Wait, does this guy fucking shoot his orbs again if you parry them instead of dodging? what the fuck why is he getting so many turns in?

Pierre was such a lucky guy. Also:

when Sciel asks Esquie about the day he saved her from drowning, he says she was crying. He then says he too, cries when he loses his stones

the frog word for stone is "pierre"

so when he is missing Pierre, he cries too

also Pierre Joseph Esquié was a French architect

and also a famous frog expression is "couler comme une pierre" ie to sink like a stone

I kneel to the baguette masters

every game is installed

based

The one in the field is just stupid.
The one in the temple is only bad because of shitty ps2 controls, it'd be "fine" if it had like proper movement

Because we’re not shills. We’re people who enjoy good video games. You’re welcome for the recommendation.

As someone who didn't like any of the modern FF, except for maybe 13-2 and SoP, it definitely scratches that old FF itch. Or at least FFX, my favourite one.

For me? It's her

My fuarkin hero Adolf will avenge him.

Enjoy the overworld, fren

It's what I thought Square was going to do after FFX, and failed consistently to do for the past 20 years (although FF7 remake was good).

Just stop reading now because you're gonna get spoiled sooner or later.

Considering the state of modern games, it's no wonder younger players see it as a masterpiece.
20 years ago it would have still been an 8 or a 9 though.

youtube.com/watch?v=1sZ4H2HbQ8c

Maybe its a little of both and /v isn’t made up of a single mindset.

I felt like i was a teenager playing Final Fantasy X or Lost Odyssey again

Funny, I said a very similar thing in a thread a few weeks ago. Something about "feeling like I felt when I played my first JRPG in 1999 and everything was new and magical". That was Chrono Cross.
But now I'm in the last chapter and still feel that way, while completing all the optional stuff.
The lesson here is: whatever others say, you need to try playing for yourself. Pirate or get it on Steam so you can refund later, but experience it personally.

I realised while playing that having a good, complete game for 45 eurobuck without bug or microtransaction right from the launch screen is something that didn't happen to me in years.
Feel like the 2000's again.
We really allowed the game industry to became a money milking scheme.

I haven't felt this way about a game since DD1. A very welcome surprise after DD2 gommaged my soul.

Even gigachad Simon wasn't good enough for her, what do you offer?

Brigador Killers never ever

Dont worry anon
If we survive, just 10 or so more years AGAIN until we get something like this again
OR, maybe their next game will be as good

Buy a fucking ad

I'm real. She's the painted person of my world.

Do you remember the anons saying she directs the magic with her feet? It was not a joke

please don't post my wife without my permission, thanks

Only part-way through chapter 2 because I don't want it to end. But it is just incredible

Do the relationship quests, but save the side content for after the story. There are some new areas that appear after you beat the final main story boss as well.

Hey OP, why don't you advertise using the webm with the main girl in the small bikini? Afraid your shilling might not last with such a lewd picture?

Clea's big BUTT

Just hope they get some more funding to improve the character animation/expression and make a new game with similar soul.
I can see the creator wanting to make a character action game too.

Finish the intro and the forest and you'll see why people started liking this game.

You can play the game on expert without dodging or parrying if you abuse buffs and debuffs. But you should still at least attempt it even if you suck dick at it.
Use greater shell + greater powerless, and some way to put Mark up and not remove it, then use enfeebling mark on whoever is applying mark. If you do this then you can facetank almost anything in the game and heal through it.

She'll step on your balls until they burst, anon

It still only took me like 5 tries when I was 100%ing it recently.

They don't need extra funding, they're filthy rich now.

Square feels like its run by fags with the amount of soft and fruity stuff they put in their games.

I am unironically going to buy an ad.
Make me a banner on Anon Babble's dimensions with Lune laughing at mindbroken schizos and I'll make it link to the steam page.

you can beat the game on expert without dodging and parrying once you set up this late game build

you do realize that this advice is terrible

wasting your own money when you can get people to give it to you

Okay, what's the original VA language for this? Was the game made for French or English? Games should be played in their intended language VA when possible.
Haven't played this one yet, but given the response is there potential for an update that adds new content, an expansion etc..seems like with all the interest people would be up for it if what was mentioned here is true.

That's the best part...

Okay, what's the original VA language for this? Was the game made for French or English?

It's actually English but for real.

What new areas? I did basically everything before going back home, I'd be very surprised if something opened up if I select new game +.

According to the Esquie VA interview (he did both English and French), English is the original one. It's also fantastic, with big name actors actually giving a shit about the performance.

Dirty hapa foot slut

Lune laughing at mindbroken schizos

Would work better with Verso.
He laughs at mindbroken schizos AND Maellefags.

Surprisingly, it's English. French was added later, apparently (after French players allegedly cried, pissed and shat themselves to sleep).

please bro
genuinely on my knees
I need the full

expedition 60 game when?

English, it also has some amazing VAs and performance in general.
Starr, Serkis and English kill it.

How do you get into the area above the crows? The one where Verso keeps saying "let's not go there".

youtube.com/watch?v=yj6JbgMdrZo

Quit groveling you filthy nigger.
files.catbox.moe/xxl6u5.jpg

Man, parrying is the best part! You can go without it, but this game will make you a convert if you typically don’t like such things.

you need esquie flying
its where the third axon is the one that is a top of a mountain so verso said you can't reach it

Is "Maman's the Word" like, French for "I swear on me mum" or something?

I want them to add Nip too. They have the money to do it and the director is a massive weeb.

Please, Christ above, make Ben Starr replace Troy Baker as male_protagonist_black_hair_defualt_Copy(1) in games.

files.catbox.moe/xxl6u5.jpg

I kneel
thanks anon

CAN YOU PLEASE TELEGRAPH THIS IN A REASONABLE WAY?

i laughed

Image

That's incorrect though. Real Renoir genuinely feels bad about reducing them to nothingness, but he would burn the world to ashes for the sake of his family.

Wait for a switch 2 release I guess? Nips lapped it up but complained about lack of nip dub like for everything they get.

Maman died today. Or yesterday maybe, I don't know.

If you keep talking to people in camp, you'll find out. If no one has anything more to say, then you'll need to continue the main story.

I'll buy it when it's on gog, otherwise, no thanks, shill.

It'll win OST and GOTY I'm sure. but best story will go to Death Stranding 2 even if it sucks dick just to suck Kojimbles off since Geoff likes him.

Japs should unironically learn to appreciate other cultures for once, their retarded cultural chauvinism makes no sense when they've been in the decline for half a century.
Get a fucking grip.

It's for Maelle's relationship quest. Go to the camp and talk to everyone, more than once, until you get new quests. There's more than one place like this.

People miss that, but Renoir doesn't *really* want to erase them or their canvas.
His wife AND his daughter being retarded makes him do it and he'd rather kill them all than lose them.
Perfectly understandable mindset.

Pretty much as soon as you reach act 2 you can get a weapon that puts you in virtuose stance on counter. It also applies 5 burns on counter (10 with double burn). Its a very good weapon that I found better than Medalum.

There should've been a third ending or something man. Lune's seething face is forever etched into my brain. She didn't deserve to go out like that.

Maybe if Gustave had lived and convinced Alicia to leave the Canvas of her own

But gustave does live in the good ending, so why do you think this is off the table?

Lune gets shafted either way.
She's either murdered, TRAPPED and BETRAYED and murdered, or gets to live on a timer as (presumably) a puppet of Alicia and has nobody to fuck her.

There should've been a third ending or something man.

Blame Alicia, she had the golden ending right there but decided she'd rather go the way of her mom.

It means; keep quiet. i.e. Keep a secret, a secret.

Maybe I didn't notice them until after finishing the main story, but I assumed areas like the endless tower only appeared after since it has dialogue for after you've beaten real Renoir

Gustave isn't going to convince Alicia/Maelle to live, she has Painted Verso to toy with.

the good ending

I could tell, what with the brainwashing and Alicia looking absolutely deranged while drowning in her delusion.

whats the crazy saxaphone song the jump puzzle uses

Yeah, he basically says

You're all correct but it is my duty as father and husband to do my best to save them

Verso gets to hang Lune while playing the piano so he's still better off than Sisyphus was.

in the manor there is a globe of real life earth

as if I needed more confirmation i was in a painting

Yet retards keep saying "muh sims fake people" when Renoir, the extremely motivated Turbo Holocauster, apologizes for it.

Paintress standing between you and Lumière in the background

You think she's the last obstacle to beat to save Lumière

In reality she is the only thing left standing protecting Lumire and its people

Kino...

Final Mission: Swim Home

youtube.com/watch?v=w5BahWrhPt8

You get enfeebling mark and access to regular shell and powerless really early. Like Flying Waters early. That's enough to carry you through acts 1 and 2 with barely any dodging.

I dumped everything in might and speed, tons of pictos give you luck or even 100% critical, I was good enough at parrying that I almost never missed one so hp and def were mostly unimportant. But really none of your stats at 99 (except might which has no picto bonus) even compare to one good picto, so stats are mostly not that important, I think.

this was an 80 second video that could've been a 6 second vine

if they have the balls. even a thinly veiled version would be interesting

globe of real life earth

look inside

33rd of December

he thinks Alicia would allow any skank to get close to her brother's cock

Her ending ends with incest and I'm 100% convinced of it.

Do you mean when the after-image of Clea has a few words about Renoir & Alina?

youtu.be/ubLJqy9yIJQ?t=441

Yeah, you can see it before ever going back to Lumiere, I did it myself. The only reason I considered one of the endings was because of what that ghost said.

This blatant astroturfing.
This is the same stratagem that was used for shilling Baldur's Gate 3, and that game fucking sucked

They're only "sims" in the sense we're sims to god. I don't think anybody is seriously arguing that they're not real at all, unless they're trolling.

the "Only Up" stage? Isn't that just Monoco's theme?

Best boy

My ex is a frog and she was clean shaven, so don't let all these faggots tell you otherwise anon. You dream on.

thank you based anon. do you happen to have this one too

I don't think anybody is seriously arguing that they're not real at all, unless they're trolling.

You'd be surprised.

Hmmm saar! Why are you hyping a NON NINTENDO GAME on Anon Babble, saar? That’s not allowed on this board saar, know that I will be telling you to buy and ad, SAAR!

learn how to use the internet retard

Nothing in the game suggests this. Its your headcanon.

I believe they are real, until they get killed and what Alicia does with them both devalues their lives and isn't what they were initially.
That's what I think at least, lune and sciel are the exception because they died right there and she got their chroma, but everyone else I just don't believe are the originals, so they are better off being dead.

tfw sister forces me to play piano

Specifically when you first arrive she says some things about you beating him and being surprised that you managed it.

I gotta say this is starting to look very enticing after the chevaliere trio in the tower.

I agree with this as well.
Gustave's reaction isn't in character for him, not to mention the repeated concertos and the rest of Lumiere not being restored, the repeated concertos, it's a looping prison.

Hero of the story dies in the first act

That’s rite, saar!
We know the real GOTY that year was Zelda Tik Tok Saar!
Me and my fellow nintendofriends from New Delhi all agree, stop this batlant astroturfing of non-nintendo games, saars!

verso is the hero

I think Alicia collected their Chroma soon enough that it's reasonable to say they're the same people when coming back. At the very least, they remember everything to the point where they gommaged. I'm guessing she did the same to Verso's chroma when he disintegrated in the dev room.

I'd say the clothes and repeated npcs are a bigger deal.
Alicia basically painted unique clothes for two people, maybe she doesn't even know what Lune and Sciel normally wear so she can't even do that?

He's the champion of liars and deceivers.

Bring me the Dessendres.

The French and Asian cancel each other out, thus leading to Shaved Enlightenment

Different chars get different weapons from her?

It's France, they're probably going by the Islamic calendar or something.

And he still saves his family (real) in the process.

Yes. You can even let Sciel win, and Sciel will get a weapon that she uses when she joins you.
Except only Maelle's is good because you can only acquire it if you miss it way later, the rest are dupes.

yes
then you can go and challenge her with each character for their weapon but she has like 10m hp on expert, so that wont happen until deep act 3

The freedom of act 3 to explore the whole continent to search for optional challenges and story beats when the only thing you need to do is beat kefka in his tower, I mean renoir in lumiere.

I continued to use it after the nerf. Instead of one shotting everything, I just funnel all of my resources into using it as much as possible.

I'd like to see a DLC where Gustave wakes up from the time loop and goes full ONE MORE PAINTER REJECTED, fights Alicia and kicks her out.

It was a good inspiration BUT it should have enforced character quests, especially Alicia's, or made renoir WAY harder so you had to explore.

m

t.

The painted family (who he sacrificed) if his real family. The real family is his fake family.

STENDHAL'S ABOUT TO MAKE YOU HIS BITCH
SUCK IT DOWN

write a 10/10 story

everyone is eagerly awaiting your next work

I hope whoever wrote this story didn't just get lucky

The game didn't clearly spell this out for me so it means you're wrong!

Gustave is the typical rpg protag, except he dies too early to be able to bullshit his way to a perfect ending.

Aline is for all intents and purposes his real mother and what painted renoir was doing would eventually doom her.
Clea also filled him in about Maelle, and he probably has a memory where he dove into the fire tos saver her and die in the process, so she's his little sister, as far as his memories go.

tfw pirated the copy and haven't patched it.

Stendhal still FUCKS

They grabbed an American woman from Reddit and had her write it, and grabbed some French music teacher off soundcloud for the OST and somehow hit gold both times.

im happy i did all the shit before Renoir because i fear i might have lost the drive to do the side shit if i had witnessed the endings
BUT
going to old lumiere at level 90 and one shotting everything made it anticlimatic

I mostly hope they know better to leave it for what it is and have their next work be something completely new and unrelated.

It was the creator and an asian woman.
For one, the woman seems more interested in the lumiere part and the creator in the verso/family/drama part of the story.

What did she mean by this?

The real verso is dead. The current painted verso, by all means, should identity more with the other painted residents and his sexy hapa footslut gf. Maelle is doing him a favor by preventing him from committing suicide just because a dead boy in a different dimension has some family drama

Same globe's in Lumière. When you head for Old Lumière for the first time the party says its existence proves how their Lumière was once part of the continent before being blown out into the middle of the sea. You're "meant" to assume it was real Earth until the Fracture and over the next 70 years it turned into the world from the Prologue, with Paris being renamed and such.

I've seen too many writers go to shit after putting out one or two good games. I've only seen a writer improve once and it was for a fucking porn game.

his sexy hapa footslut gf.

Lune doesn't even like him that way.

by preventing him from committing suicide just because a dead boy in a different dimension has some family drama

Maelle is the cause of said family drama. By act 3 he didn't actually want to kill himself until Alicia went fullretard.

He invented the Lumina converter is what he did. He was a brave Lumièrian Expeditioner!

And this house, Gustave is a hero. End of story!

youtu.be/v7KkIzWSRnY?t=20343

Yeah, this bit, I remember. She's almost certainly talking about you beating the paintress and kicking out Aline (which is all Clea really wanted).

nitter.net/Ultraboy_34

It's kind of hard to go anywhere from here. Either you become the writer known for plot twists or your story is really generic and elicits no emotion at all.

only Indians can follow the rules

Buy an ad bloody tourist bitch bastards

Sciel genuinely likes verso, not to have him above Pierre as a lover, but they developed a proper emotional connection when talking about death.

Interesting subtlety!

wait, Gustave is from a prominent family with extensive written history of his ancestors.

what is his surname?

does anyone in Lumière have a surname?

What does it MEAN

That's Gustave she's talking to. She says that if you talk at camp and Gustave tells her he was going to blow his brains out until Lune found him.

I'm wondering what this thing was like pre-nerf. I was in Renoir's Drafts and did over 18 million on turn 1 to farm perfect level 33 upgrades by just doing last chance - stendhal.

Are there any other games like this? Besides paper Mario.

The nerf was 40%.

E N T E R

I have no idea how people were doing over 1 billion, but with my setup I can still do 20 mil assuming roulette doesn't fuck me.

Then it's because they are friends.
She was friends with Sophie and liked Gustave, probably would have fucked him but she understood he was grieving Sophie.

I'm calling Vaati right now.

did over 18 million

Think billion.

finish game

unlock the platinum

will never play this game again for the first time

I feel lost anons, I've never had a game make me feel this way since FFX
I don't know what to play next, it feels like nothing is going to scratch the itch that this game has done for the first time in 20+ years
Are video games finally over?

have you played ff12?

HydraFXX

play ff13

Ever played/emulated lost odyssey?
It's a good game.

You get to play my favorite game, post on Anon Babble and save popcorn for TGA.
Or play Lost Odyssey if you have an exbocks

Not that guy, but I might do that.

Or just read a book.

It's also fantastic, with big name actors actually giving a shit about the performance.

According to Maelle's french VA, it was much easier to work on the voices because the writer and ceo were both present during the recording, so they could directly help themfind the right pitch or tone of voice they were hoping for. That, but they sent a 50 pages lore book prior so they can have an idea about the world and the character they'll be voicing.

ff12

That's a boredom sim with the driest story and party ever conceived in a jrpg.

Lies of P is unironically the closest game in terms of themes, it's a belle epoque action about a grieving parent unable to handle his loss. There's even a magical painting in the game (although you don't go into it, it serves a different purpose).

I might pick up a Series S for it if I can find one very cheap

Vaati just steals from Anon Babble threads.
Also, I want to see Lorde in the sequel.

read altered carbon
it shares absolutely no similarities to e33 but it's still good
and there are 3 books

I'd like to meet the real aline.

kek is that faggot doing lore videos for e33 now?

That butthole looks unused. I'd like to fix that.

Xenia canary works well, if you can play e33 you can run it.

hope they get some more funding to improve the character animation/expression

Careful what you wish for. Sounds like AAA creep to me.

There are simply times where the characters stand there devoid of all expression in an uncanny way.
Also their eyes lack focus sometimes, fixing that would help.

Going from E33 to FF13's dogshit story would be quite a whiplash

the combat's good at least

JE T'AIMERAI TOUJOURS

No, only From Software's cheques clear. Imagine doing Armored Core 8 videos there, but not a single non-From soulslike

PAINTING LOVE PAINTING LIFE
I KEEP LOVING YOU I KEEP PAINTING

Mother fuckers. Opening the fight with a tight 7hit combo, into a gold chromatic cunt, that's somehow manageable now after I beat his weaker version. And then the sword throwing faggot, he one shots me so often I barely even get to learn his attacks.

the sad music hits harder when it's not a made up language
sorry yoko taro

you fought as Maelle didn't you

True, fake-languages are cringe

...

Part of me wants them to do a third DLC ending type shit for fun but I don't want them to fuck over the other two endings.
Reading peoples various opinions on this shit has been fun

Game is dog shit

it's dead beacuse we're infected with braindead zoomers who have a hateboner for turn based jrpg's. I blame dunkey for this.

He looks happy, so I doubt it.

Doing 12 years of videos, all on one company, not even one genre, I'd lose my mind. Even milked that Deracine VR demo.

Maelle is much easier to justify, Marche literally did nothing wrong because nobody died, the residents of the fake Ivalice were all people in the real world (hence the part where you're shown that the bullies were literally made zombies) and there was an evil witch draining people's life force to sustain the illusion

I like how he really didn't expect Gustave's overcharge and got fucked up by it.

they do a third ending with gustave

it's actually the real bad ending where everyone dies

put up with alines bullshit for 67 years

finally get it over with

your daughter wants to start it all over again

how the fuck did renoir put up with this shit?

I felt like i was a teenager playing Final Fantasy X

This is honestly the feeling I've been getting. FFX is one my all time favorites, and I've played plenty of other RPGs I greatly enjoyed between then and now, but E33 does resonate in way that only FFX did back in the day. I can see why this game is probably a lot of people's equivalent to FF6, Chrono Trigger, FF7 or FFX for people younger than me.

Um actually, bg3 was great, brony. You’re correct that the enthusiasm for the game is following the same pattern though. That is how it is with awesome games. People love to talk about them.
Get a job and buy a better rig so you stop being left out.

Ok so Renoir created 4 Axons, all representing one membre of the family

Sirène is Aline, and through her he show hom much he still loves his wife and desire her

Visages is Verso, the one who protects truth with lies

Hauler is Clea, the giant who shoulder the burden of the world, seeing how she is currently the one doing the heavy lifting to avenge Verso/protecting the family

Alicia is Reacher

I don't understand the last one, what is Reacher supposed to represent?

I had zero build optimization and I went to use the move once before the patch hit because I never even bothered to unlock it at this point because it didn't seem worth the move space for the cost.
I two shot Strong, my highest attack at this point was like 30kish dmg

STOP

I just started a new job and there's not only one but two guys with good taste in games on my team. Genuinely super excited to make friends for the first time since, like, middle school. You'll find some bros, bro, it took me nearly a decade to find some.

It's explicitly explained when you enter the area.
It's hope.

the residents of the fake Ivalice were all people in the real world (hence the part where you're shown that the bullies were literally made zombies) and there was an evil witch draining people's life force to sustain the illusion

And in FFX, the people of Dream Zanzibart or however that city was called, were still ensouled despite being the dreams of magic fireflies, it was a tough choice to break them free from their stagnation, but at least their souls find rest (and Tidus comes back because sequel).
Here, based on the little info we have, the painted people just get erased into oblivion.

Reaching for the skies, for something that might not be there

Yes this game had major FFX feels for some reason.

if your "it was all a dream" game sticks the landing it's an automatic 10/10

big gamble
very big reward

for me it's golgra

FFX is far from my favourite, I prefer heavily nonlinear JRPGs with experimental combat systems, but it was unmatched in terms of giving you the feeling of adventure. Was.

pls stop being a hikkineet you have the potential it's just there

Also

>Sirène is Aline, and through her he show hom much he still loves his wife and desire her

He loves her, but he's calling her self absorbed.

Golgra

Did they need to give her the most sculpted ass in the game?

BASED thank you blessed anon

And tits.

walking with his cane
*BOOM*
walking with his cane more menacingly
*BOOM*

The lip synch was all done for english

Ah, si haut

Encore plus haut

It fits.

One doesn't.

forgot this cutscene since it happend after they reunited with Maelle.

verso makes the chief of his imaginary race

huge tits and ass

Are you surprised he fucked sciel so much? Even got her a revealing swimsuit.

Why would kid Verso do this

Hope you enjoy getting splinters up your urethra

and legs and feet
and the power to use those legs and feet to obliterate your pelvis and leave you as a stain on the wall

She randomly has a super mode too unlike any other gestral

what the hell is up with the place with the manor in the background and some dude just talking french and you can't go anywhere?

modeled after clea

bro just stand still when there attacks that send your party members into the void

Did you even play past act 1?

They wouldn't follow a woman with mediocre ass and tits

I am a brainlet who didn't even connect the dots.

It represents that Alicia is a neet

I'm gonna do it.

I didn't care for Esquie.
He's just too one-note reddit.
Also doing one of five voice lines every time you sprint didn't help.

i think the poem used to be in the gommage scene but i guess they cut it but wanted to keep it in the game somewhere

for those who cum after

Alicia tells you the axions are metaphors and that renoir is super heavy handed with them.

aline only cares about her art

verso puts up a mask in front of his family

clea is crushing down under her burden

alicia is a coward

Sciel is using sex to numb the pain of her lost husband. With a year left to live, she throws herself at anyone, and why not? She’s trying to get Gustave on board here, but he’s a bit clueless and grieving over sophie still, so he gives some flat “Yeah, same.” answer.

bro, your health/defense stat pictos? your shields?

Verso drew Golgra when he was 12ish and discovering why adult women make his peepee fuzzy

Tintin in Tibet

Ain't no way that anyone enjoy that trash game, this must be a JDG reference.

Verso sculpted Goglra was Clea posed for him as a model

adult woman fetish

Renoir attempts to vanish (you)

game wears its influences proudly

hot..

How old is Clea? Verso was 28 I think? and they mention Clae was the oldest. so she's maybe 30? But also Alecia is 12 years younger than Verso, so maybe they didn't have their kids that close together like normal. Clae might even be like 35 (based)

There are some thematic similarities in both titles tho.

However, 13 executes it poorly

none of them list legend of dragoon

genuinely surprised considering the combat system and lavitz death, felt like there was some inspiration

Has anyone actually picked "No (Lie)" when asked if Verso could have saved Gustave?
I wonder how the conversation would have went and if the relationshop level still increased by the end of the scene.

auto QTE. you have to learn parrying especially for Bosses like Renoir who will vanish you with his gradient.

FF8

beyone based, I will now buy ten copies

What about stun attacks, charms, blight attacks and the serpenphare explosion attack which is an instakill?

Alicia is 16 and Verso was 26 when he died. Clea looks like she is in her late twenties.

based talented music composer picks xenoblade chronicles

Of course

Parry. Only thing I couldn't parry so far was the exhaustion wave from the flying cunt, and the blight aoe.

She looks like chudette.

47 hours

did you skip all the exploring? I'm at 55 hours and barely started act3 story

get girl

get boy a couple years later, as intended

stop

10 years later, alicia is born

The dessendre's ""happy"" accident.

Acts like one too

Japs fucking love Mexican culture THOUGH

my bad i thought the argument was that you had to parry EVERYTHING to survive

She is outrageously sexy.

So you have to parry
Why did you say otherwise earlier?

Someone should make a comp on yt with all the combat OSTs, skipping thrugh an 8h long vid is quite bothersome.

I never realized golgra was female, I thought all gestral were males
didn't even notice the tits because of the crossed arms and also being too focused dodging when fighting her

All the Programmers love WoW

Played WoW and all my friends in it are programmers

What's up with programmers and WoW?

Wait Monoco is literally a dog?

if there is a next game they should just steal the story again like they did this one.

Should I go play Legend of Dragoon? I'd heard of it but it was just one of those ones I never ended up playing.
