Thread 715729227

Since Konami has been renewing all their IP licenses lately what are the chances for a new ZoE game?

I doubt it

MGS is big enough that the brand name alone might make them consider it even without kojima, but EOE is way more niche

Then again, I feel like EOE's narrative and style is something other people could handle easier, wheras anybody but kojima doing MGS would be iffy

Non.

>>715729385
>EOE
Do you mean ZoE? Since EoE could be interpreted as Eve of Extinction, a jank but charming action game on the PS2.

>>715729385
Mecha popularity has been having a resurgence as of late. ZoE really came out at the ass end of the era where mecha stuff was really popular which was mostly in the 80s and 90's. By the 2000's mostly people were kind of burned out on it but now it's getting popular again.

>>715729227 (OP)
Meh, all they would do is make a REMASTER and only of the first game at most.
I don't think they could remaster ZoE2 more than they already did because unlike MGS3, ZoE2 use cell-shading graphics, they can't just make everything more realistic.
There was also very stylistic choices in the colors and aesthetic that they definitely can't do without proper developers (not gacha regurgitator).

>>715729805
Yeah, we even got Metal Wolf Chaos. Never thought I'd see the day.

>>715729227 (OP)
ZoE3 never, just gonna have to make do with DxM2

That doesn't mean anything. IP licenses are always renewed.

>>715729385
is it more niche than suikoden? they brought that back if only to turn it into gacha slop.

>>715729227 (OP)
ZoE is my favorite franchise but I kind of want it to stay dead. After years of this shit, I've come to realize that games being dead isn't the worst fate it can have.

>>715730202
I really wanted to like DxM, but something about it was just so bland. I don't want to say it was soulless, but it was definitely missing something. Gonna wait a while after the sequel drops to see if it's better.

>>715729227 (OP)
>no shinkawa
why even bother, zoe is all about sexy mechs

>>715731427
>ZoE is my favorite franchise but I kind of want it to stay dead.
This.
Some franchise simply have no need (or no room) for constant sequel.

We need something new still designed by Yoji Shinkawa.

>>715729227 (OP)
CyGames said they'd like to make the third one after they made the remaster for 2, and Konami has seemingly been open to publishing for other companies.
The chances are ultimately not zero.

>>715731427
I would still like something in ZoE universe, like Trigun with mechs on mars. Dolores anime was great btw.

>>715732460
You will get a netflix Adi Shankar anime adaption and you will like it.

This shit makes me cry every single time

>>715732206
Orbital Frames arent built for sex..

>>715732784
Bend over

>>715732656
Same, what an insanely great character. I hope ZoE3 would utilize all those angelic Viola/Nephtis frames that were coming out of Aumaan at the end of 2 even if Aumaan was destroyed.

cockpit joke

>>715732460
Well, Fist of Mars exists, though I don't think much of /v/ has played it.

>>715732248
Yoji Shinkawa is one of my favorite mechanical designers and he needs to make more mechs period.

>>715732656
ZoE is so weird. I prefer the JP, but the EN can sometimes have gold. 90% of the playthrough the EN will be hilariously poorly directed, only to turn around and give us scenes like this or a few in ZoE 2... only to go right back to funny VA again.

>>715734950
It's ZOE in name only and characters yap non stop

Noriaki Okamura the man that has written, designed and directed the original game still works at Konami. Also he never wanted a ZoE2 it was supposed to be a single game. Sequels are cancer to him.

>>715735227
>It's ZOE in name only
Retard shit since it vibes off the anime+OVA. Game isn't good but don't say retarded shit like this.

>>715735406
ZOE games =/= ZOE anime

>>715730093
BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE GREAT ZAKAT THAT SCORCHED THE SURFACE OF MARS!

>>715734950
Uh, the soundtrack wasn't bad for a GBA game. That's about all I can say about that one.

>>715735769
OVA came out at the same time as 1 and the anime released shortly after. Go be retarded somewhere else.

>>715729227 (OP)
>Game franchise from early 2000s feels more futuristic that the one who comes out now
Let it go...the soul already left

>>715729227 (OP)
Bomberman is still dead tho

>>715736507
no its not it's just rebranded

Zero

its sad kojima went from this to death stranding

>>715737356
Kojima was only a producer on Zone of the Enders I think.

>>715737034
AIIIIIIEE

>>715737356

>>715737494
3 was going to be mainly by him and his team, it was going to be one of the first FOX engine games besides MGS Rising

>>715736439
>more futuristic that the one who comes out now
What is the ESL retard trying to say here?

>>715737494
Producer/conceptual designer but the story and characters were left up to others.

>>715737737
Considering the primitive nature of what they were aiming for it was definitely going to establish that metatron is like fossil fuels and OFs are all taking the form of primitive inhabitants of mars. It'd be super cool if Kojima utilized whatever plot he had in mind to create the callisto metatron deposit in 2.

>>715737741
Probably that futuristic games that come out today feel less futuristic than games that came out in 2001

>>715737737
It was part of the ruse

>>715729227 (OP)
Don't do this to me anon. It's been over two decades now. Even if they do make it, it won't live up to 2nd Runner at all.

At the very least 2nd runner is available on PS4, wish the first one was included in the package.

Hopefully none. Its a miracle we for ZOE2 considering how shit the first game was.
>inb4 nuh uh!1!1!1

Yuh huh, if ZOE was so great it would have gotten the same remaster treatment 2 got, BUW ZOE WAS FUCKING DOGSHIT

>>715740863
it's basically the same shit minus the anime cutscenes.

>>715740994
it had that early 3d cgi kino look

>>715740863
>Its a miracle we for ZOE2 considering how shit the first game was.
First game sold units because MGS2 demo was included. No one cared to buy ZOE2 because 1st one wasn't good. Same thing happened to Lords of Shadow.

Zone of Enders is gigakino.

>>715737737
I wish I could see higher res version of that Jehuty/anubis. It looks so fucking cool.

>>715732784
And yet I want to fuck Dolores, curious!
(I am very intelligent)

>>715742016
shes like 50 foot tall bro

>>715729227 (OP)
grim, the vr remaster flopped hard and that was their testbed for the IP

Why did Idolo send its pilot into a frenzy but Jehuty and Anubis didn't?

Best way to play the series? Original or remaster?

>>715744175
the originals run at 20 fps, especially the sequel
play the remasters

>>715744175
just emulate both of them or get the HD collection.

>>715743531
Anubis definitely did.

Dingo and ZoE1 MC are basically the Tom Bombadils of their universe, metatron has no effect on them because they have no desires that could be exploited by the metatron's corruption.

Any tips for a new player that are not obvious or well known?

>>715747157
dash a lot

>>715740863
>iF IT wERe gOoD It'D goTteN A cAShgRaB pS vR tEsT
kill yourself Konami shill

>>715744175
Original for ZOE1, the remaster sucks.
ZOE2 remaster was even worse but the PS3 version got patched and is pretty much perfect. There's also a PC version but idk much about it.

>>715743531
Idolo had no AI so its inherently personality had nowhere to vent from except its pilot
>>715747057
Nohman lost his mind because he would sit in his OF for fun and loved killing people either way

>>715747486
But clearly ZoE1 Nohman and ZoE2 Nohman are like night and day.

>>715747486
Yeah, listen to the story Dingo tells about him in 2, guy was never playing with a full deck.

>>715748029
He has like, what, five libes in 1? He shows up at the very end, you fight him once, run away because you can't beat him, then the game ends. Also there's a multi year timeskip between the two games, Leo is a child in 1, late teens to early 20s in 2. More than enough time for Nohman to go crazy from metatron poisoning.

>>715748410
We are saying the same thing.

>>715747157
The mummy shield can restore your life gauge, useful if there are no health pickups around.

>>715743531
>Anubis didn't?
aaaaaaaahuh

>>715748410
He went insane in 2 years. Metatron is one hell of a drug.

Still mad Revoltech didn't do a nephtis or inhert figure. I got everyone else but it feels hollow not having those two.

>>715748029
Definitely not, he's the same man just more unhinged. Nohman isn't that deep.

>>715729805
I hate anime but even I know that giant robots are sick

I do like this design. I wish Kojima went through with this.
>>715749540
Do you dig giant robots?

>>715729227 (OP)
i hope the mgs3 remake is good and it doesnt have denovu

>>715749876
you just want to pirate it?

how did they get away with cock cockpits

>>715749876
Konami seems to be doing the RE1make where it's a graphical update and you can make it play like zoomershit or make it the classic gigachad way. Also heard MGO is coming back for it.

>>715749830
Jehuty and Anubis are amazing designs, and Anubis had a great theme.

>>715750014
Evangelion cockpits were in the womb, so...

>>715750014
The world and vidya wasn't complete bullshit then

>>715749984
is there a problem with that?

>>715750242
no, atleast youre being honest unlike people who pretend theyre not buying a game and that they lost a sale because it has denuvo when in reality they just want to pirate it.

>>715738564
And what's that supposed to mean? Is it a mark of quality how "futuristic" a game looks? Is hard scifi which puts more emphasize on the actual science and plausible leaps in technology inherently worse than utopian settings like star trek?

>>715750014
Wasn't the story that Yoji did it as a joke, and Kojima thought it was genius so they just ran with it?

sex with Viola

>>715750960
i'd prefer her orbital frame

>>715750960
she looks like she fucks shotas

>>715751216
She smashes them, just not in the way you'd think

>woman talking
>lower the camera and look at her tits instead
Just like in real life, heh :^)

>>715751673
It's not just this one it's most of her portraits too

>>715751673
>During that segment where her AI is disconnected she strips out of her pilot suit if you let her fall too close to the bottom furnace area
>scroll down and get tits plus tummy
Thank you Kojima

>>715750960
>>715751216

Build for Leo.

>Civil and cool ZOE thread
>Konami announces a remake
>ZOE threads become shitshows
evrtiem
I hope Konami never does it. Let it rest peacefully untainted by current day bullshit.

>>715752360
giwtwm

>>715752360
Even dingo is staring at the Viola booty

>>715750960
Short haired hags sexo

>>715754254
>Bottom center image
It's ok, I won't tell the advertisers

>>715743531
Metatron resonates with the will of the runner. It amplifies what is already there and feeds it back.

Also, Leo and Dingo didnt pilot Jehuty for all that long. Less than a day of exposure for both.

>>715754375
you aint no snitch?

>>715750960
>>715752360

>>715729227 (OP)
I'd say bad. I liked Idolo and Dolores

Nut if we are really lucky maybe SRW cause that's the Mecha Graveyard and would probably count for a "Active IP" count.

>>715729545
Yes, i'm just tired

>>715755959
Jannies are fags who let bots discord/twitter raids and jeets shit up this place. And we share the same taste in women so no, I'm not snitching

How hard does 2 beat the shit out of 1? I never bothered finishing the first because those punchy faggots kept beating my ass super hard.

>Cygames begged Konami to let them make a third game
>Konami said no
It isnt fair. Cygames actually gives a shit about ZOE...

>>715760384
im surprised konami rejected making zoe into gatcha trash

>>715760479
You know that Cygames made the latest remaster, right?

>>715760384
Really? i always thought they wanted to make it but the remaster they did sold like shit so they dropped it.

>>715761172
That's basically what happened. I am sure Cygames could buy the IP if they wanted, they have umamusume funding...everything.

>>715760212
The first game can be finished in like, under four hours. Even at it's worst it's almost like it's just a prologue for the second game.
