So KCD2 thread?

GOTY has been on lock since April 24th. nothing else has a remote chance in hell. I eagerly anticipate seeing brown anons get absolutely BUCKBROKEN in December.

It’s the way the music syncs with the cane taps that makes it work.

that fuckin cane

from what i've seen most girls chose the daddy ending

No Competition

>>719247714
The fact that Verso’s soul is suffering seems to be what tips it for them.

I’ve only ever seen men go for the Maelle ending, and even then most still pick the Verso end.

>>719240745 (OP)
The only question is if it will win game of the decade or if the title will go to the next installment of the franchise.

>>719247179
People who refused to like E33 because DS2 was coming out but then found out DS2 was shit fled to Donkey Kong. I wish I was joking.

>>719240745 (OP)
>reveal trailer
I've heard the actual game is good too.

>>719248175
I think it’s going to be remembered as a modern classic. It’s this generation’s FF7.

Not as revolutionary, but it’s comparable in terms of how popular and well liked it is.

>>719248175
Still Elden Ring

>>719248364
No way dude, FF7 was gigantic
E33 is MAYBE FF9 or FF8 level

Reminder that E33 originally looked like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r1kl4QxEtY&pp=ygUaZXhwZWRpdGlvbiAzMyB0cmFpbGVyIGRlbW8%3D

How did it get a glow up this extreme?

>>719245632
I hate how she forgives that fucking psychopath, makes no sense at all.

>>719248535
It’s PS1 era FF-level anyway. I can’t remember the last time a turn based JRPG was this big.

>inb4 Persona

Persona is a VN dating sim for weebs masquerading as an RPG.

>>719248586
Blackrock funding. The director's dad is a billionaire and part of Blackrock. E33 is literally a psyop and is full of propaganda. This is why they have so much money for eceleb shilling. Without shills like assmondgold E33 would be considered a mediocre indie game that everyone forgets about in a week.

>>719248586
Kepler.

People always underestimate the importance of publishers in game development: they fund the game and find developers, third-party companies, tools, technologies, voice actors and much more to give to them thanks to their business network.
And of course they take the bigger share of the sales.

>>719248791
>full of propaganda
For example?

>>719248791
You're absolutely mindbroken. I'm very anti-woke garbage and e33 is fucking great.

>>719248791
All true

>>719248850
If you play the game you'll see for yourself. Woke propaganda everywhere it's so obvious.

>>719248930
>e33 is fucking great
Thanks for proving my point. Sandfall has infinite money to spend on shills and we have a live one right here.

>>719248791
>that everyone forgets about in a week.
and that's still what happened lol, even after all the money behind it lmao, le baguette niggers are so pathetic

>>719248930
There's a younger crowd where if the piece of media isn't "kill all niggers, behead all jews, castrate all asians, burn the spics, etc." its a onions-op game because some retard with a youtube channel said so.

>>719249041
I'm not playing this astroturfed western """JRPG""" slop, just give me the examples

>>719249302

You can spot it easily unless you have a very low IQ.

If that's not enough for you then you're a fucking retard.

I'm glad we got "Verso" instead of "Frey".

>>719249521
Damn so you didn't play it? That's crazy bro, go back to the Bananza thread

>>719248175
>GOTD
>Everyone plays it once a moves on
It doesn't have the replayability of BG3 or Elden Ring

>>719249694
>muh replay
retarded zoomer

>>719249926
I accept your concession:)

>>719249694
>replayability
I never understood why this is such an important factor for some people.

Jokes aside I don't remember the last time I was that enthralled with a game. Its nearly perfect. Gameplay is fun, story and OST are some of the best, and performance is great. Easily 10/10.

>>719249521
would have been believeable if you started with Lumiere having bunch of black people.

>>719249521
>medieval France
The most American post I've read this week.
Congratulations.

>>719249938
How many people do you think replayed OoT? Or FF7? Or

>>719249694
I replayed E33 once so far, didn't even finish bg3 or elden ring because I got tired of them before getting to the end.

>no sex scene with maille and gustave
it's trash

>>719249994
It actually has replayability for doing one more run and reinterpreting all the dialogue and tiny subtleties in characters with your foresight, it recontectualizes a lot.

>>719249521
It’s not Medieval France. It’s 1900s France, which definitely had SOME black people because of colonialism.

Also, the main character is a white main, and the main antagonist is depicted as sympathetic.

What would you change?
I'd replace the Axon defeat cutscenes with more of what they did for the Dualist. The team takedown was sick and I'd prefer that for defeating the Axons to what we got.

If E33, TW3 or BG3 is one your favorite games. You're as reddit and cringe as they come.

>>719250414
I really appreciate they clearly went back and refined the dialogue multiple times. Most stories like this should be solved with a very simple "why didn't character A just tell character B about X" "why are they speaking so pointlessly vague here" but that's really not an issue in this story. The dialogue feels very natural with a lot of revelations hidden within. Its a stupid short one but I like how there's even little things like Sciel asking if anybody has wine and Esquie doing the "WIIIINE?"

>>719250456
Rework the final boss fight a bit. As it stands, he doesn’t have enough HP and is in dire need of a 3rd phase. He doesn’t even have a Gommage attack, which is weird when you consider who he is.

>>719248791
>>719249041

I kek'd thank you brownoid

Silksong is about to buck break it.

>>719240745 (OP)
>any questions?
yes, why is this such a shit year for games?

>>719250074
>if you started with Lumiere having bunch of black people.
That's what I said though. The game has a bunch of black characters in medieval fucking France.

>>719250428
>which definitely had SOME black people because of colonialism.
Nice another paid shill. Yeah buddy I'm sure there were billions of blacks in Europe at that time. I bet a bunch of kings and emperors were also black too right?

>>719250705
>brownoid
Why so obsessed with brown people? I'm not brown but sometimes I wish I was so I'd get to live rent free in your head.

>>719249994
Same, I don't replay games, the fun is in the novelty most of the time.

>>719240745 (OP)
Yeah. Why are casuals who don't play games suddenly pretending to be huge JRPG fans when praising this?

>>719250776
>medieval fucking France
Buddy it's the 1800s.

>>719240745 (OP)
I just can't bring myself to care about this game and i fucking love AAA RPGs. No idea what it is. Maybe the lack of a central main character? Maybe the menu driven combat system? Maybe the lack of (dialogue) choices? Character customization? It just doesn't click for me. But i feel like it should. I SHOULD love this. But i don't.

>>719250671
>As it stands, he doesn’t have enough HP
His fight should be done right after the end of act 2, after that you are free to explore

>>719248192
Imagine being a paid shill aka journo and having to pretend the nigger game didn't get destroyed by a drug dealer game made by 1 (one) person.

>>719250776
>if I act like I'm retarded and annoying while "fighting" for the other side they'll all start to hate that side
It doesn't work like that. Your post is just making me hate hippies even more.

>>719250776
>seethes at white people
>not brown

>>719240745 (OP)
People already forgot it came out.

I wouldn’t say that E33 has NO replay value, since the challenge modifiers and build creation allow for some creation, but aside from the Chromatic Nevrons and optional dungeons/bosses, I didn’t find the side content satisfying. All the Gestral beach minigames suck, and I feel like finding loot is unrewarding aside from the odd Picto or Weapon. I was especially let down by those single screen areas on the map that contain nothing but a music record.

>>719246747
>Babies' second metroidvania

>>719250776
Zoomer believes everything before the year 2000 is medieval times.

>>719251114
I put 80hrs in it and have no plans to replay it. Probably ever. Not that it's bad just the replay value isn't there.

I guess only basic bitch normalfags who don't even like videogames treat "goty" shit seriously in 202X.

I'm not sure why you niggers are thinking of replayability in this kind of game as an absolute necessity.
Did your favorite, golden-age Square, Final Fantasy game have more replayability than this? I don't think so. Did it stop that game from being a masterpiece? Not at all.

So get fucking real.

>>719250776
The Middle Ages are commonly accepted to have ended in the 15th century, illiterate monkey.

>>719251376
Build set ups are where replay value in E33 and Square games come into play.

>>719251376
It must be replayable to be goty desu.

>>719240745 (OP)
Yes, why so many epic slowdowns, it genuinely throws my timing off

even if I hadn't played it and loved it I'd post about the game just to make the retarded brown nindians seethe

>>719251376
>Did your favorite, golden-age Square, Final Fantasy game have more replayability than this?
>FF5
ye it did

>>719251457
So the game is fine, then.

>>719251376
>Did your favorite, golden-age Square, Final Fantasy game have more replayability than this?
Yes. There was always something new to discover in those games or were a good number of characters or jobs to mess around with.

>>719251434
No idea what you two faggots are arguing about but when somebody says "middle ages" or "medieval times" they are talking about knights and swords and horses and castles. Whenever that was, colloquially, is what people expect. Now you can ignore that and stick by the historical definition, and you'd be correct, or you can join the rest of culture and accept that sometimes wrong is right.

>>719246302
not even /v/ has threads about it, not even hate threads
that's how fucking irrelevant Kojima's flop turned out to be

>>719240745 (OP)
only issue I have with your premise is one of scope. “Game of the decade” seems more appropriate.

>>719251651
It's bullshit and you know it.
The only stuff you'd "discover" in subsequent playthroughs was miss ables, which is a shitty mechanic that we thankfully got rid of because we evolved as people and understood that forcing someone to replay the game just because they missed something is a waste of time and nothing more.

>>719251714
It genuinely surprised me how fast the discussion or talk about that game died out. I thought they would keep it going longer, if for nothing else out of spite.

>>719241619
Good joke.

>>719251913
>It's bullshit and you know it.
Nah. It was fun, kept revisits fresh over the years. I don't even dislike E33 at all but I do feel I've seen everything I need to on the first round.

Pretty much certain. Silk Song would be a contender if metroidvanias were as popular as metroidvaniafgs like you to believe.
