Hot damn this game was fun as shit. When will we get a third one?

>>712781297 (OP)
There can't be considering where the story went.

>>712781520
Is there an anime with a worse ending than AoT?

>>712781669
Boku no Pico Academia

>>712781669
But the ending was fine.

>>712781297 (OP)
Probably never, AOT 2 is a great ass game though. I came in blind and got a really fun swing simulator.

Game should've done its own thing could care less about cuckren still nice take on a musou game

>>712781297 (OP)
We got that ass VR game instead

>>712782459
nu uh

>>712781669
What was wrong?

>>712783715
The editor realized that they were doing an ending where genocide was not only the real answer but justified so they changed it to where Erin was being mind controlled by some retarded womanchild that wasted her life simping for some retard that didn’t give a shit about her outside of utility and so the crew created an avengers team to kill him and save what was left of the people that have been trying to kill them for a century, only to end up with them regrouping and destroying the island.

Today I will remind them

i only played the first game and really liked it, no eng dub prevented me from playing the second game ťbh, honestly japanese voice in vidya is hella annoying

>>712783903
I was there. but after re-reading it I'm more surprised Jean didn't end up like that.

>>712784028
>not wanting yuki kaiji scream in your ear
Whats the matter, dont want your ear drums bleeding?
2 is a great improvement though, give it a try.

Honestly anyone who kept reading this shit after the timeskip deserved everything they got.

>>712784795
After they open the basement.

what is with the japanese and the villain being some god who connects everybody into one?
SnK
Eva
Gundam

>>712781297 (OP)
Probably never, but if they did it would be cool if they brought back the OC and had different routes/endings.

ten years at least

>>712784573
>2 is a great improvement though
i know, it looks really fun and i want to play but since its koei ive long given up on hoping for a dub, i can live without it i guess

>>712782606
The swinging mechanics in this are better than any Spider-Man game.

>>712781669
Still a manga right now but JoJo Part 8’s second half is so terrible it makes AOT’s Avengers ending look kino

>>712783903
I like to imagine AOT ended at the beach or when Eren initiated the rumbling

>>712781297 (OP)
I wish they would adapt before the fall manga so we could get away from cuckren timeline forever and go back to mindless season 1 shit.

>>712785743
Did they ever finish this? I remember it being very decent actually but it felt like it was canceled.

>>712781669
Elfen Lied

>>712783859
Or maybe Isayama is just a complete fucking moron who couldn't didn't even know how big a meter was

>>712785743
Or that fanfiction that Isayama liked so much he made it canon

>>712785175
Loss of identity and the destruction of the self. Maybe japanese culture just thinks more about this particular fear.

>>712785175
What you read influences what you write
Japanese people are going to read Japanese works

>>712783859
i think the final panel showing paradis getting carpet bombed and some kid finding the same tree ymir found was cool in that it implies everyones work to stop eren was for nothing and that the whole cycle will just repeat itself but honestly thats arguably more fucked up than just going with a genocide ending so im not sure what the writer was thinking

>>712785921
I believe it's finished, I read it years ago but I do remember the ending feeling abrupt. Also heard that the manga drags things out so the original LN is probably better. I enjoyed the art though.
>>712786492
Yeah afaik there are a bunch of side projects with interesting enough premises, I'm surprised no studio jumped on the opportunity and just let the property (deservedly) die off.

>>712783903
would've this been a more justified motive if he had fucked his sister before going punished eren mode?
like he felt a glimpse of happiness together with her, remembered he had like 3 years left to live then went fubar as revenge against the unfair world

>>712787513
>so im not sure what the writer was thinking
In the end, Eren didn't care and wanted to secure a peaceful life for his friends which is what he did.
Ending the titans and securing Paradis meant nothing to him, hate that betrayed of his character but that is how Isayama did it.
I think a better ending would be that Eren completes it and in the far future Eldian settlers end up bombing Paradis in a civil war, call it Paradis Lost or something to be poetic.
Warhammer was a complete red herring and his plot point with Historia was dropped/also a red herring.

>>712787513
>implies everyones work to stop eren was for nothing
Depends how long was supposed to have passed, I don't think securing the safety of your people and nation for, say, hundreds of years gets undermined if things get destroyed THAT much later

>>712787849
Wasn't Erin going insane because he could see multiple futures and realized all of them were shit? So he just chose the one that at least gained his two homies a life of peace? I liked what he did with Eren. Mr. Stoic Badass was still just a piss-scared kid underneath it all and finally broke down screaming and crying toward the end. Eren was all always an idealistic, whiny, mostly incompetent idiot. The story stayed true to him and the people who bought into his bullshit were mad when the mask finally slipped.

>>712786848
Yeah I suppose the people who factually look similar to one another. All they have is their thoughts to seperate them

>>712788195
And their culture strictly encourages hegemony. A lot of that Japanese culture American tourists idealise so much comes at the cost of personal expression.

>>712783715
Completely abandoned the series' themes at the last moment

>>712787660
>I'm surprised no studio jumped on the opportunity and just let the property (deservedly) die off.
much like Promised Neverland and Oshi no Ko, shit fried themselves so fucking hard that their entire IPs became a festering shithole of radioactive "no one wants to touch this". granted, Oshi still has a lot to adapt so I dunno if the anime still stop, but like godfuckingdamn. something like My Hero Academia is very lucky it has side stuff like Vigilantes to keep it alive after the awful ending it had, too.

>>712781669
i did not like the way Death Note ended. but I weite it off as Ryuk being bored and purposefully fucking up Light's game.

>>712788274
americans could do with a bit less personal expression
i dont need people to express their penises at me

>>712781297 (OP)
I love this game to death. To me, it's up there with the best action games of the past decade, easily. It takes some time to get used to the controls, but once it does, oh man....

the doujin game is great too

>>712788546
im gonna need to reinstall

>>712788150
>Wasn't Erin going insane because he could see multiple futures and realized all of them were shit? So he just chose the one that at least gained his two homies a life of peace? I liked what he did with Eren.
That is how it is explained yeah, the issue with it is that if you take a bit of time to think it breaks down.
Why did time pass in paths only with Armin at the end? How did Eren cause Mikasa to forget their created time together if she is a Ackerman?
If Isayama wants people to buy this idea that this specific equation of deaths and actions is the best timeline for his friends then he should show those other timelines from Eren's mind.
Maybe the alliance is hunted down by Yaegerists in one where he completes it without killing them, maybe Historia is assassinated in one where he stops the Rumbling earlier, maybe one where he fails to end the titan curse by satisfying Ymir we see his shifter friends perish or maybe even Historia's Child is forced to consume a titan and keep that cycle going.
And why is this what Ymir needed anyways? How did no other example of a woman overcoming her obsessive love for a man not happen in the past 2 years to someone with Eldian blood that Ymir could see?
>Eren was all always an idealistic, whiny, mostly incompetent idiot. The story stayed true to him and the people who bought into his bullshit were mad when the mask finally slipped.
It is only staying true to who he was before the timeskip, it makes sense for someone who went through all he did to end up an emotionless stoicism to cope with everything. It is character development that was thrown out at the drop of the hat and it just feels badly paced.
I think alternate timeline what-ifs could really help save the ending in the eyes of people, if we see the most wanted outcomes and how they all crumble then it will be easier to understand Eren's actions because without context, if feels like a complete 180 in the last 4 or so chapters.

>>712788285
Honestly AoT's problems really began about as soon as they reached the basement and the elongated "truths" started while heading into the time skip. One can say a lot of individual problem points across the series, and many of them are debatable and even agreeable, but everything involving Marley and the Eldians just completely and utterly shit the bed going forward.

>>712781297 (OP)
Is it worth getting for Switch? Apparently some preorder costumes are no longer available but there are no mods to restore them

>>712788646
>past 2 years

>>712788274
Considering they're one of the last high-population density places to still have high-trust, maybe they've got a point. Maybe some people should express less.

>>712783715
>you have to keep fighting until you're
free
>actually just kidding, fighting back against oppressors makes you THE BIGGEST NAZI OF THEM ALL, CHUD
it would be easier to list what went right

i miss aottg. literally the most complex and robust swinging/hook mechanics of any game i've ever seen. the skill ceiling was nuts in this thing.

>>712788668
Basement really shakes things up but I think Ocean scene is still the best ending to the series, the twist of the rest of the world not only existing but also hating you for existing when you thought Titan's were the big bad but are actually your only card against the rapidly advancing world is a real mindfuck.

I'm used to seeing the creation date of something from earlier in my life and it making me feel old.
But somehow the whole Attack on Titan craze feels ancient to me despite not being that long ago relative to my life time.

>>712785436
Jojolion's ending wasn't nearly as bad. Main character didn't get cucked, villains are dead, most of the family is alive and will continue on.

Take this as you will but this is the most Christian story that isn't the Bible.

So how should it have ended? Everyone blindly follows Eren and they genocide their opressors?

What if instead of wiping out 80% of humanity, Eren did a sick backflip

>>712789703
>So how should it have ended?
the chapters leading up to the ending mindbroke half the fanbase, so the most popular accepted alternative end was based on a vague music video by linked horizon. niggas believed the hidden cut ending was communicated to them through the imagery and it's pretty kino. make of that what you will. there's even a rewrite manga based on it, i don't think it's completed yet.

They do those all the time on their 3DM gear, so it wouldn't be that impressive to them

>>712789634
In what way?

When i played this I only ever used the blades, how are the guns? I felt like giving them a try, but just getting up close and slashing fuckers was way too fun

I tried it, finished tutorial session.
I found the whole swinging system cumbersome.

>>712788815

Play edf6 as a fencer

>>712789703
>So how should it have ended?
This is how
>Eren completes the Rumbling, kills his friends who try to stop him. The same way Mikasa sacrificing who she loved for the greater good, Eren doing the same also satisfies Ymir and ends the titan curse.
>He lives the rest of his life with Historia and his child destined to create a world he would have wanted for those he loved.
Still holds the same values and morals as the real ending, but stays consistent to his character and the tragic reality of fighting for freedom.

>>712789703
The idea that genocide is necessary to achieve freedom is a false premise. Eren went full retard for no reason because the author wanted to present a false dilemma

Remind me what was established to happen if someone who had one of the power titans died without being gobbled

>>712790910
random eldian babby would get it i think

>>712790510
You being able to customise your blades and ODM gear makes it all worth it. Once you become able to cross the entire map without touching the ground going at the speed of a jet and slicing titans like butter. its fucking fun. Coupled with being able to turn into the Attack Titan and Female. This shit and Titanfall 2 are among my top 10.

>>712783903
I didn't understand this because wasn't the blonde queen all over his dick.

>>712790294
I want a cheap pop from the people who cry "Christcucks" because we aren't living in the Crusades era anymore

>>712791061
no. christa was a lesbian with Ymir

There are multiple fan endings to AoT, which one is the actually kino one again?

>>712790830
The guy who vowed to kill every last Titan just found out he'd been murdering his people. I'd be genocidal too.

>>712791061
Yes, and it was heavily implied to lead to something like >>712790759, but hacksayama went full retard and shippers muddied the waters with "it was always a red herring" shit, oh well.

>>712791336
And he could have stopped at killing the culprits, and leave innocent people out of it

Why do normalfags love Marley so much? Why are Jeagerists considered "literally hitler" when Marley has internment camps and concentration camps?

I remember them talking about how advancing technology was already promising to obsolete the threat of the however-many-it-was 'main' titans

What if everyone had just let that happen

>>712791394
Did you read the manga? Honest question, it makes it clear that the ENTIRE world hates Paradis.
This includes mainland Eldians by the way. Those innocent people will take up arms to avenge the "culprits" because the reality is that the original Eldian tribe are the true perpetrators, that's what makes it a cycle of hatred.
Why not look at the what is happening right now in the Middle East and see how your idea is working out.

Isayama initially said this would be the final panel. The text reads "You are free..."

>>712791494
Then Paradis gets demolished for the raw materials under it.

>>712791557
>what is happening right now in the Middle East
a bunch of authoritarian regimes are fucking each other in the ass, while the population was living just fine until ~80 years ago

>>712791493
Wiping out Marley still meant killing far more innocent people. The millions of Kraut civilians didn't deserve death for everything the Nazi regime did, despite what some people might feel

>>712791621
You are completely dodging the point, and also have no idea what you are talking about regarding how the Middle East was roughly 80 years ago.
Are you even aware that the British and Soviets invaded Iran in 1941? Or that Arab and Jewish conflicts existed before the creation of Israel as an official nation?

god AoT nosedived so fucking hard after the basement

>>712791906
Which one of these conflicts resulted in genocide exactly? Did the jews or arabs get completely wiped out at any point during these conflicts?
This mindset is so childish.

>>712782435
MHA ends in a clutch.

>>712781669
Yes, plenty.

>>712792585
The point of the analogy is that the cycle is never going to end until one side is gone, there will always be someone waiting to avenge their loved one who the other side view as an evil that had to be eradicated.
That is now Iran sees Israel and vice versa, it isn't something that will end on peaceful mutual terms.
Same with Paradis and the rest of the world. The rest of the world will never forgive Paradis nor the evil they wrought in the past, and Paradis will never forgive the rest of the world for their actions either.
We see this in the official story by the way, the cycle continues as Paradis is carpet bombed in the future.

>>712788408
it was fine how it ended. Light got fucked over by the same dumb bad luck that fucked L over.

There have been tensions between jews and europeans since the roman empire. Muslims and Christians have been at war since Islam was invented.
Genocide thankfully remains a very rare event. Most conflicts can be solved without fully chimping out and completely eradicating your enemy.
Even the main conflict in AoT was eventually "solved" by killing the strawman Eren. The Iran-Israel conflict will probably settle as soon as one of their regimes is toppled, if the Iranian Islamists go down I doubt the rest of the population will have much interest in a long war with Israel. The Saudis, Syrians and Jordanians are already normalizing relations, and so are the egyptians. These wars don't last forever.

>>712788408
>>712792820
It really isn't, there is no way they could write a complete 1 for 1 copy of the death note with the same handwriting in such a little amount of time.

>>712793031
>There have been tensions between jews and europeans since the roman empire. Muslims and Christians have been at war since Islam was invented.
Correct
>Most conflicts can be solved without fully chimping out and completely eradicating your enemy.
We see the result of an uncomplete Rumbling in the manga, it was never "solved" and Paradis was obliterated only for the cycle to keep going and even for titan powers to be heavily hinted at returning, an incomplete solution is no solution at all it is only kicking the can down the road.
>The Iran-Israel conflict will probably settle as soon as one of their regimes is toppled
Which will not happen, the people of Iran support their current regime and will continue the spirit of it in whatever Government came next. Reminder that Iran is not a small country, it is a country of 90 million people with 1 million soldiers roughly in a country that is full of mountainous environments.
Afghanistan reverted when we left because the people supported what we had arrived to topple, change is not something that can be forced onto people.
You are simultaneously pointing out that these conflicts have been ongoing for thousands of years but in the same post saying that you think the conflicts will die down? Do you really believe that the people of Iran would forgive Israel for what they have done in the past week, not to mention the decades of actions before that? They hate Israel, their families and leaders have been killed by Israel and they won't just forgive that, and the same true the other way around.
These are people taught to hate each other from birth and that the other side wants to eradicate them, and have only seen hatred and death from the other side their entire lives, that's not something that will just "settle."
I'm not saying one side should genocide the other in real life, but it is a fact that the cycle of hatred will continue for as long as both sides are still there.

>>712789703
Having every single major character reject Eren's plan was certainly a massive mistake and there should've been more drama and infighting there. The plot could've been used generally as is minus all the bullshit about Eren planning to lose and Ymir mindfucking him(which both invalidated all the good writing from 20 chapters ago between Zeke and Eren). It was this character assassination of half the cast that really ruined it, not the underlying story beats.
Or he could've gone for a melancholic genocide ending where Eren wins after killing a lot of his comrades.
He chose the cheesiest and laziest way to conclude it after previously demonstrating he was capable of writing far better.

>>712792742
I would've said fuck it. Talk No Jutsu Shiggy into being redeemed or else steal his power so he has to slink off. On to year 3 of Hero School. This time Shigeraki is in the class or running his own gang to take back AFO. Keep it going until Graduation and keep making each year with more challenging villains.
That was always the problem with MHA. It advertises itself as X-Men or Hogwarts but became a giant mess that really had nothing to do with the school. Even Naruto had this shit down but Hori didn't want to be patient. Which is funny because we had to wait a fucking year for one fight to finish. A fight that was meant to last like, half a day?

They hate Israel, their families and leaders have been killed by Israel and they won't just forgive that, and the same true the other way around.
Plenty of Iranians already hate their regime. you are forgetting that a lot of people have family that has been imprisoned or killed for doing something the Islamists didn't approve of
Syria used to be full blown anti Israel, now that their russia-backed regime collapsed they're talking about normalizing relations. Things can change quickly.
Some regimes are genuinely genocidal. My problem with this depiction is that Eren does not fit the bill for a genocidal leader. Genocidal regimes are virtually never born from people trying to emancipate themselves. There are some laughable quotes to highlight like "I'm a slave to freedom". The author is trying to create a weird scenario where the people who want freedom from oppression and the oppressors are one side of the same coin
Propagandists for totalitarian regimes love to play the "oppressed" narrative, Iran is a good example as they try to paint themselves as victims of western aggression while they randomly murder their population for stepping out of line. But this depiction only exists in propaganda. Eren is like "what if we took that propaganda at face value and assumed genocide was a legitimate tool of emancipation"

I really hate the mind control shit. It makes perfect sense for everyone to not like Eren's plan. No one there (except Mikasa) was on the violent path that Eren was. Everyone had their own motivation but Eren was a fucking neantherthal who wanted to kill the world. So he was always a man on his own and when he turns his back on them to side with Zeke it's apparent that he wouldn't give a rats ass if they joined or not. But no. Eren can't be responsible for his actions. It was a Sekiro centipede from Grisha the entire time.

>>712788408
Like that other anon said, it was an asspull, there's no way to make a perfect copy of the Death Note to just be like 'uhh well actually, we just copied it perfectly even though you checked for that exactly ;)'.

>>712781669
There's worse endings than AoT, but it went from absolute kino (Marley invasion) to absolute dogshit in like 25 chapters. I can't think of another manga that managed that, it's baffling.

>>712793040
Between Near and Mellow I think they'd have managed it. Then just hold onto that one until "DELETE DELETE DELETE" guy is discovered to be Kira's stand-in.

>>712786415
Truly, Isayama is an unparalleled genius

>>712794074
the conflict worked in AoT because it's between a race of walking nukes and majority of regular humans

>>712794374
I mean it is physically impossible to write that much and copy someone's exact handwriting in the time that they did.
Also keep in mind the death note was kept in a bank vault, there would be evidence of them accessing the vault and Mikami is obsessive enough that he would 100% notice.
This guy fits over 400 names in one page. No one is going to be able to copy what is 20k+ names in one night, nonetheless in someone else's writing style.

My hero academia was pretty fucking bad.

the unity browser game was better

>>712788408
to be fair Death Note either shouldn't have killed off L at that point or shouldn't have just introduced glorified L replacement characters

https://youtu.be/FTW-jjquuJo
Man I loved that unity game, killed so many hours during uni days.

Everything post-beach scene was a massive mistake. Everything that happened in Marley was shit and having Eren get mindbroken and bend the knee to some slave girl from thousands of years in the past just prove that he himself is also a slave is fucking asinine writing. I don't understand why Jap writers are so obsessed with the idea that everything is due to some nebulous fate that you can't ever go against even when you can see its machinations, SnK is not the only manga that suffers from this rot.

>>712783903
This panel and pic related broke me

>>712794294
Everything up until the rumbling is pure kino, it nosedives in quality in like 13 chapters so way faster

>>712791591
guess he really did change his mind

>>712783715
the ending was very politically charged so there's genuinely thousands of people who think the ending is bad because it's fascist and people who hate it because they think it was too leftard.

IMO the ending is fine, at least in the anime, in the manga it feels too sudden but the anime adds an extra little 5 minute scene of two characters talking that makes it feel more nicer and definitive

>>712798598
Eren and Armin talking in the memory palace wasn't added to the anime but it does remove this line

>>712798598
Nah it's shit, you're just obsessed with politics and want to appear neutral.

>>712798750
I'm not the only one for whom Armin never stopped looking like a young child, right

And I also remember for the first long while I thought he was a girl

>>712799730
He did put on a wig to act as Historia in the story
