Shine Post should get out of /mbgg/

>>49521448
No

>>49522961
Didn't this game got mega censored, or is that a mod?

What was that game from a year or more ago with the character called something like knockuppers and I think had an anime. Did that shut down? Was it any good?

>>49523058
The censor works only on some things or modes, not too sure the specifics but I've seen it. This isn't a mod.

So I'm guessing the Shine Post game has no pantsu?

>>49522961
What game?

>>49523328
No pantsu

>>49523653
What about in casual clothes?

The problem with the Shine Post game is that it took too long to release. The anime aired almost three years ago. By this point, most people probably already forgot about the franchise.

>>49523328
Alice Gear Aegis

>>49525094
Shorts?

I miss SelePro

>Shine Post has bikinis unlike gakushillastroturfmas
Yep, Im thinking Shine Post won

>>49528660
But does it have pantsu?

It's interesting that Shine Post utilizes AI voice for group performance.

>This work uses an AI singing voice library that has been trained using deep learning technology to learn the singing voices of the voice actors who played the idols, and it is possible to change the singing position for all songs during the live performance. I think it would have been a difficult approach in terms of the amount of material to have the idols themselves sing every song, but when you hear that it is actually possible to sing different parts by adopting this format, the sense of reality of the live performance itself increases, making you want to try out various combinations.

https://www.gamer.ne.jp/news/202506040002/

>>49528992
Yes it does.

>>49529128
Pantsu and bikini, what a time to be alive

>>49529128
I want to see Haru pantsu and Hotaru pantsu

>>49529182
It's not that unusual for a console game.

>>49529128
In other words, they are being cheap and didn't want to pay the seiyuu.

Do you agree with this list? On currency collection
https://x.com/uyuxy_uwu/status/1930932919864107095?t=Y_O5uYre9UiPLU6qdqzVMw&s=19

Anyone have pics of Haru or Hotaru pantsu yet?

>>49531213
Maybe, but I also feel it's time people stop pretending Wuwa is more generous than Genshin.

Any further yuri in Shine Post?
Betweem Haru and Ren or the that lady fan.
Now that I am expecting any.

>>49531213
No. There is no way blue archive is above azur lane, the latter only earns money through skins and even if you log in once a week you have enough currency to roll for every unit easy, the only problem its if you are a newfag, but even then limited units get put into permanent shops after their second run.

>>49531213
Mahjong Soul being all the way down there is hilarious and also depressing

>>49531213
>Kusoneko at the bottom
What happened? I remember the game being fairly generous in its first years

>>49531213
Completely random list of mobile games with letters on the side

>>49531213
Can't comment for 90% of the games but ranking games based on currency gain seems meaningless unless it's also factoring in the ability for a F2P user to obtain all characters

>>49532039
same company behind BGHS so i imagine they did something similar

>>49529128
>This work uses an AI singing voice library that has been trained using deep learning technology to learn the singing voices of the voice actors who played the idols.
Yeah, no thanks. I want real voice actors in my video games, not some soulless robot.

Come on, Haru pantsu pics?

I started Chain Chronicle when I was in 5th grade, but before I knew it, I had graduated from university and become a working adult. I'm scared.

>>49532039
Reduced monthly gems in exchange of guaranteed one new character each month assuming you do daily/event missions. Whether it's more generous or not is arguable desu since someone can spent 2500 gems without getting any new character while there are people which get new character with much fewer gems or even from daily single roll after watching ads.

>>49533530
Congrats to anon for winning the surviving game lottery. Lot of anons who have been here before have picked dying games and suffered.

>>49533845
Lapis...

I miss Japanese games.

I'm so tired of chinkshit games where it's literally all hags and fags. Zero effort in character designs too, just the most generic and awful character design but give it giant tits or make it a pretty bishie boy and retards eat it with a shovel while begging for more.

>>49536231
Play soulful Japanese bishoujo game like this one
https://x.com/Bot_zuorhi/status/1929856873534259423

>>49531213
I would put PokePoke on SSS and everything below that.

This is the ONLY game I play where I get 10 free rolls a day.

>>49536990
Heck you can trade for every new card after a month. The higher rarity versions are just for flexing.

>>49536231
The Japanese can't be putting that much effort in if their games drop dead in less than a year

>>49536231
What was a loli heavy Japanese game you liked?

>>49538234
Too much investment into games and input from passionate game devs. The successful games must spend money on a lot of marketing and market research. That's why successful games have a lot more ads and have many similar generic appeal elements.

Unironically, from a development, gameplay, and appeal perspective, why did Engage Kill fail despite the anime existing and it having names like Maruto and Tsunako attached to it?

>>49539075
>clunky ui
>long fights for an autobattler
>character designs look mid
>visuals look ass
>star rail soon
>brs way better
it failed because san was better game

>>49539075
Being a mixed media project by SE is a disadvantage for appeal right off the bat. I never watched the anime nor played the game but the game itself looked like the usual generic low effort turn based slop

>>49539227
>Being a mixed media project by SE is a disadvantage for appeal right off the bat.
Sounds like Google then, where any time they launch a new project, people joke about it shutting down sooner or later. It happened with Stadia, after all. I'm surprised though that Square Enix hasn't tried to do something about changing that reputation given that they have it.

>>49539719
No one sane is going to give them another chance after they pulled the same shit over and over for almost a decade. Most nips literally write off anything with SE name on it nowadays. The only thing they can do is banking on their mangled IPs and hope there are enough retards latching onto them for a year or two before they close it down to repeat the same cycle.

>>49539880
Couldn't Square Enix change their ways and try to make their games/services last longer?

>>49540131
Muh profit margins bro.

>>49539075
Can you shut the fuck up already? It was not even the mixed media project that died faster recently. Names dont matter and marutofag washed out faggot writing has not been relevant in years.

>>49540659
>Names dont matter
They did at least for Heaven Burns Red.

>>49540687
Nope because his latest anime crashed and burned, there is not a single name who only produces hits.

>>49540659

The Lapis special.

>>49529128
Interesting. I hate seiyuu and their cult-worship. Atleast this game suit for me.

>>49541840
>January - March 2021 anime
>June 2021 game
Yeah multimedia projects are dumb unless you do it like Idoly Pride. I don't get why other anime/game projects think a gap of more than a year would work.

>>49541999
I think corona disrupted their software outsourcing to China. In 2020 the Chinese were not allowed to work.

>>49542155
It didn't even help that the distribution of license for doing live-service games in China was suspended also. Lapis had a Closed Beta Testing in China the Summer of 2020 until that suspension put a monkey wrench on the progress. Corona also blocked Lapis to do another show as well.

>>49542155
>>49542235
Could the game have survived if it weren't for 'rona, or was it just doomed regardless?

As dead as Lapis

Is there a Shine Post pantsu compilation somewhere?

There are a lot of people who say EoS soon every time, but in the end, it's just the users saying that... Well, there are a lot of things going on, so it can't be helped... I feel like there's no point in saying it out of anxiety... Kusoges will end someday, and even if they do, there are some that have been revived on other apps, so until that time comes, it's fine for only those who like it to play it.

>>49547299
Tower of Fantasy still exists

>>49547614
Who cares when it doesn't have pantsu?

>>49549420
What games have pantsu?

>>49550473
Engage Kill. Shine Post (apparently). Idoly Pride (some costumes). Dolphin Wave. AGA (some costumes). Several others.

How do we save Square Enix gacha?

>>49551726
Make SE stop making them and let them focus on the console/PC shit that they are already good at.

>>49551753
Can't they revive Engage Kill as a console game? If Shine Post can do it, why not Engage Kill?

Engage Kill yourself already

This Engage Kill schizo is as bad as C* faggots

The sad thing is that many of their failed gacha/MMPs probably would have never even been created if they were intended to be console games and not gacha.

>>49552644
Imagine snip if it were made by the chinks

>>49551821
I would legit pay for a Mobius FF console port. Or Anamnesis but Square Enix is dumb as fuck.

>>49555703
I swear, if Engage Kill was only a console game rather than a mobage, it might have had a fighting chance.

>>49552310
This guy is just here to hate on every game. Probably mad his game EoS already.

There is literally nothing to look forward to, especially for pantsuge.

Ass(none)

>>49554143
I will wait for gumi to release Aster Tatariqus as a standalone game until I die.

>>49554143
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3668850/Suikoden_STAR_LEAP/
This one is probably better as standalone game desu. I wonder if it's really going to be just one server with language selection like Pokemon Masters instead of different app like the dead Atelier Resleriana English version.

>>49558306
>>49558364
By "their" I was talking about Square Enix and not Japan as a whole, but I guess that works too.

>>49558306
I still blame the black voids for Aster's premature demise.

>>49554143
The sad thing is so many games nowadays try to be standalone games and don't want to bother investing into MMPs. They think they can get away with not going the MMP route now. It's really lazy.

>>49559763
Why bother spending the extra money on becoming an MMP when they generally don't perform well?

>>49559763
>>49559883
They're like gamblers. They push out so many MMPs, hoping that even one of them will blow up and be the next Genshin or even Blue Archive. Apart from Uma Musume, I can't even think of any MMPs, as in those created as MMPs, that actually blew up. Not even Idoly Pride or World Dai Star, they're modest successes at best.

>>49560239
Hopefully one day after shitting out enough stinkers they'll realise that they should either put equal amounts of effort into all aspects of the project or just focus on one media form instead.

Special shout out as well to the web3 endeavours. Some of these Jap companies must have a gang of troglodytes working in market research

>>49560459
It's not even a new thing. Remember Sora to Umi no Aida? When they announced that, it wasn't just the game but also a manga, a novel, and the anime. Then the anime aired a year after the game launched and was a massive flop. They announced the game was shutting down like two months after the anime ended. Now ForwardWorks is down to one or two games and it wouldn't surprise me if Sony just shuts it down entirely, if it hasn't already.

>>49560459
>>49559883
Nips are full of retarded boomers running the industry, they probably won't greenlit anything new unless you convince them the next MMP will be a hit with mobage, anime, manga and figure released tied in. Otherwise they seem to be very content with remaster remake and endless gacha spinoff of established IPs.

>>49561466
>the next MMP will be a hit with mobage, anime, manga and figure released tied in
But that is exactly what they're already doing. That's why they made shit like SoraUmi, Tribe Nine, Takt Op, Engage Kiss, etc.

>>49561466
Dunno why you're so obsessed with those lazy standalones. For every flop that just releases a game and an anime for promotion, there are a dozen more MMP that gives tons of content to the consumer as well as sell tons of stuff in various media for the makers. Then you have these standalones that barely provide any content and just has a game.

Are there even that many successful MMPs apart from PriConne, Uma Musume, and Idoly? Maybe Love Live? That didn't get an anime until three years after they started the project.

https://x.com/nekoconne/status/1933358670642819241

Pre-reg open, guess it's finally coming out

>>49566213
/mbgg/? Saved

>>49566213
R18 version?

>>49566233
yea they allow porn on google and apple stores now

>>49566233
It's a collaboration with Good Smile Project and it seems they are involving with the VAs from the anime. I will leave it at that.

I saw Chisa's seiyuu recently.

>>49561953
SoraUmi was already a few years old when its anime happened

>>49567720
They announced SoraUmi's anime the day they announced the game (and the entire project), it's just that the anime after the game already launched.

>>49562020
Foreigners and tourists seldom enjoy the benefits that come with a Japanese MMP mobage.

>>49566213
any lore rundown why yostar gave up on it and then gave it to good smile while yostar is promoting it?

>>49568026
Maybe ask those things in gacha drama. They discuss and know about those things apparently.

>>49568026
Yostar lost their marbles after BA. They already deported several games back to their own devs for self publishing when those games failed to become their next big hit, and now they are resorting to self developing their own game. This game is probably just one of those deals when they think the game won't be profitable enough for them to bother.

>>49567225
Well, that sucks. All ages Nekopara has no value.

>>49568611
They probably earn more from BA than all their other games combined anyway.

>>49570281
BA doesn't earn that much, all it actually has is the big fanart/doujin market, in fact AK probably earns more than it averagely. And Yostar only has JP server under their thumb while the rest are Nexon's.

>>49570349
I'm still confused as to how the fuck BA dominates the art scene despite it not even being the most popular game in Japan. I get the lack of Uma art, but even other games like Genshin and Fate are still bigger earners but somehow have less art and doujins. Before you say "cute and funny girls", I don't think that explains everything.

>>49570358
Not counting those rumors about Yostar secretly spent their marketing money to hire fan artists to pump out BA arts to create hype, it's probably the same situation as Kancolle, something that just happened to catch people attention and blew up massively.

>>49570358
The biggest strength, if you can even call that, is the simple character designs, easy for trend chasing artists to mass produce and spam on their SNS. it makes quite a big difference when other mobage keep dressing their characters like Christmas trees.

>>49347910
It's only still around because of global exclusive Mana cards.

>>49411526
South Korea.

>>49474763

That has always been Mana, and that hasn't changed even after her seiyuu's death.

>>49572522
Please play D4DJ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK_iylsa7sI

>>49570704
What's the deal with global exclusive Mana cards?

>>49571955
Why is that one anon still mad about it even when the compass anons rarely posts? What is this anon's vendetta about?

>>49571955
because the game isn't particularly popular, i'm not even sure why they decided to do one or why they have a cafe but i suspect it's because they have a much lower minimum profit they need to reach to stay afloat and keep their investors happy, compared to something from a bigger company or a game that had a lot of early investment

>>49573328
it's just the usual shizo shit. an anon will see something brought up a few times and get angrier each time till he explodes. i also had a little fun poking at #c anon and the shizo probably internally associated my posts with him

>>49573542
>suspect it's because they have a much lower minimum profit they need to reach to stay afloat and keep their investors happy
Sounds like Re:Stage then.

>>49572522
>>49572558
Only if they have pantsu

>>49573542
>the game isn't particularly popular
From how it got an anime, keeps getting cafe collabs, and how those anons keep pushing it here, you'd think otherwise.

>>49570358
Genshin and other 3D games don't need fanart and doujinshi because they can use the models or make new models for use in 3D animated ero and mod up the game like an Elder Scrolls game and just live the doujinshi. Is there really that much of an art difference between FGO and BA?

>>49574609
>and just live the doujinshi
There's a big difference between 2D and 3D porn, someone who enjoys one won't necessarily enjoy the other (I think 3D stuff usually sucks and I'd rather kill myself than use porn mods)

In terms of art volumes, BA has 617,874 images on pixiv and approx 6500 doujinshi uploads on exhentai.
FGO has 587,523 images on Pixiv and approx 6500 doujinshi uploads on exhentai
Genshin has 545,175 images on Pixiv and approx 2000 doujinshi uploads on exhentai
Note that the exhentai numbers will include duplicate and translated galleries

BA trumps both, FGO trumps Genshin for doujins but it also has a 5 year headstart. FGO and BA both have a much larger cast of characters which probably helps on the doujin side of things

>>49574636
Yeah, but given how BA is arguably the most popular game ever when it comes to fan art and doujins, you'd think that it would be dominating the charts too. But it's not. It's a popular game, no doubt about it, but the game's actual popularity does not match the amount of art it gets.

>>49574666
It likely just appeals more to artists (including ones that don't play the game but like the characters) especially as it seems to get good engagement on X, formerly Twitter.

Chart topper Love and Deepspace along with consistent performers Monster Strike and Puzzle & Dragons are pretty much irrelevant when it comes to fanart. From my expert insight it probably just comes down to who the audience of those games is.

>>49574666
>BA is arguably the most popular game ever when it comes to fan art and doujins
Not even close, must be your first FOTM if you actually believe that

>>49574744
It's even overtaken Touhou and Idolmaster, for fuck's sake.

>>49574744
Curious to know what mobage has more art than BA either overall or in proportion to its age

>>49574762
Has BA overtaken Love Live yet? As in the entire Love Live franchise.

>>49574785
From Pixiv:
Love Live: 297,516
Sunshine: 126,944
Nijigasaki: 60,024

I'm not aware of any other ones but I'd say yes

Is Shadowverse flopping?

>>49583049
Let's see how many time KMR can relaunch the same game again.

>>49583618
Eh?

>>49583618
It's too early to tell. It's most likely ok.

>>49585641
It's not OK. The whole point of games like these is that they give you just enough to get you started, and if you keep playing over a month or something you can get yourself a decent deck, then you start to get the itch to play other decks and swipe.
Here, you don't get enough for anything, and since the rewards are 1/3 of what they use to be, you'll need like 5 months to get a decent deck, but by then the next set is out and you are forever behind. Even the dolphins and whales can see the writing in the wall, since you have to put in a lot to get going, spending 15 bucks a month gives you basically nothing.
There are a lot of other problems, like most of the power in a deck has shifted to legendaries instead of silver and gold cards, bad balancing, a lot of focus put in the metaverse thingy, etc.

>>49585773
The focus on rotation format is pretty awful. Your old decks are not even powercreeped... they are just thrown out

Then they had the gall to add mini expansion in the middle of a rotation

>>49585826
On other games this isn't a problem since you simply dust whatever archetypes you don't play and that plus the dailies and free packs are enough to get you 2-3 meta decks. Here, you don't get enough to even craft 1 deck through a whole rotation.
The game is earning good money right now, but it's all thanks to cosmetics, after people get what they wanted no one is going to swipe for packs.

>>49586059
You got to be predatory to earn though. Don't remember the last not-too-predatory game that makes good money.

#アイプラ4周年思い出

>>49589772
We need more Idoly Pride pantsu costumes. Only a few of their costumes have pantsu, while their casual outfits still have shorts.

Mana...

>>49589772
How did this even happen. Nothing destined this franchise to staying around for so long after the lacklustre anime. Is it luck because the idol MMP fad died around that time?

>>49591308
Maybe it's honoring Sayaka's memory

4517 matches later, my cock and ball torture is finished and I've managed to drag Blanche to being my most played hero.

What a painful experience it has been. Her defence is useless 95% of the time, most heroes can one-shot her with a card but she cannot do the same, many heroes can two-hit her with normal attacks, her normal attack pattern is probably the worst in the game, the meta involves special division 4, piercing cards and instant cast shields out the ass, using her hero skill typically results in being promptly obliterated by an enemy who charges theirs faster, only two card types are usable on her, Touma exists. I beg of the devs to give her more health or make her ability apply from all sources of damage if they are adamant on making her a piece of paper.

But she's cute so it's a worthy struggle

>>49593265
Pretty unhinged but pretty based as well. Good job bro.

>>49589772

>>49593748

She used to be main characters!

>>49598235
Her character is listed third in the character list on Wikipedia. It seems like there's a lot of hype/interest for that series, so maybe that could be the boost her career needs.

I also just remembered she was also in Mou Ippon, but that show wasn't very popular.

Why didn't Aster get an offline version?

Wow, even /mbgg/ has forgotten Honkai 3rd.

>>49603484
But we are a /jp/ thread so not caring about hi3 is understandble, it's not the same as forgetting. It's only forgetting if you go to a /hoyo/ thread or something and expect them to know/care and they forgot. So basically this thread isn't a good measurement on how forgotten that game is.

>>49603577
There was a time when the thread was mostly priconne and hi3, but that was a long time ago

>>49603634
Let's be honest: /mbgg/ basically became obsolete when /vmg/ happened.

>>49603685
I'm more talking about hi3 being dead because of Mihoyo completely fucking it over to appease their newer riajuu base.

>>49603758
You're saying you prefer NEETs to productive members of society?

>>49603863
Betraying your original audience to chase the very people who would be disgusted at anything otaku 10 years ago is a good idea if you are a soulless corporate suit who only thinks of line go up. Now hi3 is dead.

I don't care about chink game bro.

>tech otaku save the world
lmao

The thing is, hoyo and their shills wanted everyone to forget about HI3. Imagine making a hack'n'slash game 8 years ago, going on to make another action game 4 years later that's a downgrade in combat, then making another action game another 4 years later that hasn't improved from the first. That's the HI3 > Genshin > ZZZ progression. HI3 is a reminder that they haven't improved at all.

How is the MC portrayed?

Ok I just finished watching takt op destiny. The anime was pretty good. They really fumbled so hard on this franchise wasting all that hype and amazing settings for that flop of a gacha that didn't even last a year.

>>49605417
You're talking about a Japanese franchise. The anime was good, wasn't it? They didn't fumble anything.

>>49605239
Yes, I played Priconne Re:Dive.

>>49605417
Like other JP multi media projects that go from anime to game, it wouldn't work if there is a gap of more than a year between the two. The hype from the anime fades by the time the game releases. Idoly Pride worked because the gap was only 3 months.

>>49605239
Almost like korean kazuma but it gets downhill real fast.

>>49604999
wdym about this new KMS idol game? Stellar Idol Project?

>>49589371
They are compensating that with fast expansion release schedule

>>49607297
Minisets are so small you get 60/69 cards within a few days. They also come with solo battles that give plenty of hourglass rewards.

>>49605958
How so

>>49607431
They got cocky.

>>49605878
That along with the game itself being horribly plain and boring.
Sad because the game's setting and concept are really good. Coupled with some of the best-looking girls and art style I've seen in a gacha but yeah it's an multimedia IP gacha so unless it's by cygames it's 100% gonna crash and burn

At least it's getting an offline version.

>>49608919
Omori needs to write faster.
It is coming.

>>49608919
>Characters episodes are unvoiced
Worthless

>>49610041
It's honestly better than nothing, considering how so many beloved games like Lapis and Engage Kill did not get any offline version at all.

>>49608919
>>49608968
RIP Danmachi. At least Ais and Bell are still in #COMPASS.

4周年おめでとうございます！

As for cards, details are listed in game but the majority of changes were buffs. Of note are damage increases for close range cards and AoE cards, cooldown reductions for healing cards, counters and AoE status effect cards and cooldown reductions for piercing barrage cards (excluding Stellea's). Section 4 got a measly nerf of a 4 second longer cooldown but 3% more stats - I was really coping that card would get gutted.

Noctis really got a chunk of pretty big buffs, can't say I think he needed them but I guess they want to ensure he sells.

Are you >>49610525?

>>49612784
No

>>49612236
Thanks bro.

>>49610790
Damn Idoly Pride really reached it's 4th anniversary. I thought it was bound to fail since it's a new IP made to promote a new Music Ray'n idol group.

>>49614108
Will Idoly Pride save DayRe? Some of its members are already in it.

>>49611928
lol

>>49614113
>Sphere = Liz Noir
>Try Sail = TrinityAile
>Tsuki no Tempest = DayRe
Bro Idoly Pride was literally made for DayRe's members with the more popular older generations being their support characters .

What happened to Rinkai?

Huh, I didn't realize they finally decided to name themselves

>>49616351
And it only look like five gajillion years

Do games exist to support idol groups, or do idol groups exist to support games?

>>49617749
The former

>>49617749
>idol game roster remains unchanged
Former
>idol game keeps regularly adding new idols
Latter

>>49618167
they all add new toons tho
bandori, d4dj, imas

>>49618485
Some are increasingly slower at adding than others
Hell, to rephrase the answer, in the beginning the idol groups work to build the foundation (game), and when the game is stable the game can support the idols

>>49617749
Some games are the former where they were specifically made to promote new idols/VAs just like Idoly Pride and CUE. Most of them are the latter where they just hire the VAs to voice the characters in the game.

>>49618485
Because idol groups add members too. Or there's a new group they want to promote.
>>49618647
Examples of the latter? Even the Love Live games were made to promote their songs , and it worked. God I miss SIF.

>>49619158
>Examples of the latter?
Like everything else? They didn't make Idolmaster, Love Live, and all that other shit to promote the VAs themselves. The VAs were just hired to voice the characters.

Blue Exorcist also launched today.

get ready, american horsefuckers are coming

>>49619613
>>49621103
>Blue Exorcist, Uma EN and P5X JP/EN are launching almost on same day
It's over...

>>49619285
I think you're confusing "idol groups" and "VAs"

>>49621993
No I'm not. We're talking about idol games and most of the VAs are not from real life idol groups. Like in Idoly Pride, Tsuki no Tempest, TrinityAile, and Liz Noir have VAs that are in real life groups but the VAs of Sunny Peace and IIIX are not.

>>49622670
Exactly, so you're understanding the initial question >>49617749 wrong, it's not asking about the VAs

>>49622678
No I understood it correctly. CUE and Idoly Pride are cases where the games support the idol group. The rest like Idolmaster and other idol games are where that the VAs, who may or may not be an actual idol, support the games. I just understand that idols can be VAs but not all VAs are actual idols so I just call them VAs which is the job they were hired for in these games.

>>49623233
Again, VAs aren't idol groups
I'll give you that people who are fans of Tsuki Tempest or TrinityAile may be fans of DayRe or TrySail but Idoly Pride is that kind of a special case where they made the VAs from the same VA idol group voice yet another in-game idol group
The other games promote the characters themselves, not the voice behind them.

>>49623429
>Again, VAs aren't idol groups
That's exactly what I said bro???

>>49623502
Your argument is that Idoly Pride supports the idol groups like DayRe and TrySail and Sphere because the game was practically made to feature them as idols as TsukiTempest and TrinityAile and LizNoir, but the other games have no such connections
My point is that in other games people put more focus on the fictional idols and the games exist to support those fictional idols

>>49623429
>>49623502
I completely understand what you're saying but I don't think you actually read what I said.
>game exist to support the idol groups
This is the case with idoly pride since they had a new idol group, now called DayRe, and they made a whole ass game to promote them.
>idol groups exist to support the game
This is what I said are the most of the other games. The VAs, some are actual idols and some are not, were hired to portray the game's idol characters. They are not actual idol groups. They are VAs hired just to voice idols in the game and they are "game idols that exist to support the game".

>>49623549
In your argument "idol group" refers to the real life seiyuu idol units like those Rayn groups or Dialogue+ or Earphones or whatnot
In my argument "idol group" refers to the in-game fictional idol units like TsukiTempest in Idoly Pride or NewGen in CG or KiRaRe in Re:Stage or whatnot

>>49623559
Look we're practically saying the same things so I don't really get why we're arguing.

>>49623570
Not sure why I'm so worked up over this either
Uh, sorry

You know what game also has idols?

Is anyone here playing Uma?

>>49623576
Yeah me too anon.

>>49623233
Honestly Idolmaster is a bad example because it's a relic. No modern franchise would promote a game over real life events because they know where the money is in Japan. A game is transient but fans of a group can be milked indefinitely.

>>49624480
What about Blue Archive?

>>49624867
Does that have idol events?

>>49624480
You do know the newest addition to the iM@S franchise is doing gangbusters over every other idol franchise right now yeah?
And that particular branch is a prime example of idols being created solely to support the game because they've been adding new idols like bimonthly lately

>>49623871
Why would I play a gacha game that doesn't allow lewd fanart?

>>49627527
>adding new idols like bimonthly lately
They added a total of 3 over a year and all 3 were in the story in the first place

>>49628412
I was including the unplayable idols as well
Those do influence the popularity of the game, I mean just look how popular Rinha (and Nadeshiko) is

>>49624480
>fans ... can be milked indefinitely.
No one knows that better than Namco, the masters of DLC and microtransactions even before the mobile game era.

Schoolgirl Strikers 2 is over

>>49629702
>Over 11 Years
It was a long run, but unfortunately it has to go.

>>49629757
Does SE still even have a game alive that's more than 2 years old right now?

>>49629854
There's three I found out. Two are DQ mobile spinoffs and one is Romancing Saga Re-Universe.

>>49629702
F

>Schoolgirl Strikers is getting an offline version, but Engage Kill and Deep Insanity (among many other SE failed MMPs) never did
Why?

>>49630206
I'm still angry about Tokyo Dolls.

>>49629702
I hope the offline version keeps the minigames

>>49629854
Final Fantasy Record Keeper JP version is still alive somehow

>>49630194
I thought you guys said this was unkillable along with Tokyo 7 Sisters and #Compass?

>>49630357
post 3 examples

>>49630357
>this was unkillable
No one said that
>along with Tokyo 7 Sisters and #Compass
No one lumped this in with the kamige

>>49630357
The real unkillable game is Chain Chronicle.

In better news, he's coming soon

>>49621826
it's over

>>49623871
Yeah, I forgot how rough the beginning could be when you don't have several S+ horses to inherit from.

>>49634189
Then why are there almost no Uma doujins on Panda? Otherwise it would be up there with BA and Idolmaster.

>>49634812
Japanese Cygames fans go out of way to harass and shut down horse porn

>>49634969
But they have no issue with Priconne porn?

>>49635349
Cygames didn't ban Priconne porn

afaik many good horses are owned by saudis and brits, and Cygames don't want to offend them hence the ban

>>49604953
I will never not be upset at the current state of HI3. It fucks me up just by thinking about it.

>>49635899
Dropped the game shortly after they finished Otto story, can't really stand the flame chasers wank and Kevin was a fucking awful antagonist. At least I didn't have to witness how they gut the game with the part 2 update.

>>49635899
Now do D4DJ

>>49630637
Indeed T7S is the true kamige

>>49634812
Not enough chinese interested in scanning them. And by the way there's a handful of doujinshi that keeps increasing. Also Japanese artists realized that they dont need to do a full book to make money with Uma porn. They just draw an ecchi image, post it on twitter and sell the naked version on fantia

No, BA loves paying artists.

Never got into the Honkaiverse stuff so do not know these feel.

All I know is that the anti-Communists are angry about their success.

It's not fair.

They're not killing it yet.

>>49639175
Imagine if Love Live suddenly made it a K-pop franchise because K-pop is financially lucrative and has a global appeal. That's exactly what Mihoyo did to Honkai Impact.

>>49639877
*Kadokawa suddenly made Love Live

>>49639856
Those circumstances did not save the Bofuri game.

>>49639893
Well it's LN trash.

>>49639883
Love Live is Bandai

>>49639987
It's actually both. The project began as a collaboration between Bandai and Kadokawa all those years ago, long before SIF and long before the anime.

There is no justice in this world when a low-effort tie-in puzzle game could last like 4-5 years, but an actual game, the flagship of a mixed-media project with an anime to promote it, couldn't even last two years or even one.

Engage Kill wasn't even a good game.

>>49640090
Will D4DJ survive to next year?

Why did HBR suddenly go sexy
