Can't believe they would taint this series with anime. Why??!

A good RPG considers the environment and immersion. Anime is a puerile, pre-teen anathema of disgorged gaming. It utterly destroys and defecates on any mature environment one hopes to create in a classic RPG.

Anime is an insipid manifestation of "woke" postmillennial internet rebel junkies and a blight stain on human intelligence. Anime is one big massive emoticon, an infantile vestigial of creative thought, a callow brain-diaper that belongs in the daycare centers of the internet. It is the 21st century version of the Smurfs. Would you enjoy Wizardry if it took place in Smurf village and you could play as Papa Smurf? I thought not.

Anime to RPG is like Tik Tok to classical theater...one. big. immature. joke. And stop saying that Japan equals Anime, it doesn't, japanese developers make brilliant games. Anime is simply an art-form (one that I hate), and one that has no place in a classic RPG.

Pissing on graves helps no one.

You sound like an Expedition 33 fan

Nigga, it's Wizardry. You go to a dungeon a kill things, that's the game.

>>723101385
So saving a series and keeping it alive while producing good games like Wizardry Variants Daphne is "pissing on graves"?
It is literally the best dungeon crawler ever made.

>inb4 gacha
It barely qualifies as one and there is no reason to even engage with it at all.

That's cool copypasta, I guess.

Sounds copy pasted from the Codex. Bunch of 50 year old virgin manchildren protesting that their preferred method of wasting time is superior to another because the other somehow makes them feel more insecure than they already are.

Shut up you pajeet shill you only come on this board to market slop

Anime destroys this game, it takes the great legacy that was once Wizardry and reduces it into a vestigial, purulent speck of garbage. When you are playing a classical RPG game with giant eyeballs, blue hair, neon Gucci pants, white urban shoes, looking like you just got out of your shiny lexus and headed into your 21st century skyscraper slick urban condo while you take selfies and walk at the same time with profane music blasting in your ear-buds, we have some serious issues at hand indeed,

It's not a good game you fucking retard

*floats in the air wreathed in dark worldend essence* taste it now true fell pow'r of dark!!! *ends the world*

>>723103208
Ok explain why its a bad game?
It has all odds against it and it ends up a masterpiece

>>723101246
yes. anime is fucking gay

>can't believe they would taint this RPG with anime
They made an anime adaptation a long time ago.
There's also a new one, Blade & Bastard or something.

And it is pure ludokino soul.

I don't know if I'm being trolled or these are truly displaced normalfags bitching about character art done by Asian people apropos of nothing,
But holy shit. Make it die

Anime has nothing to do with classic RPG, it is an abomination.

>>723104379
I actually did play Variants Daphne for a few months. Chief complaint is the gear upgrade system that has literally 9+ layers of RNG and the inventory system that takes hours upon hours to check stats and extract.

>>723101652
despite being the guy you responded to, I'm checking it out now on mobile. Cool intro sequence

I think Wizardry Daphne spawned a new schizo or something

>>723104696

cope, the game is shit you paypig faggot

Not a single valid argument, only a rant.
>Anime is simply an art-form (one that I hate)
You could've summarized it with this instead of the nonsense you just posted.

>>723100885 (OP)
I just love how anime just casually makes pretentious people have a mental breakdown like this.

agreed

It´s the other way around. First of all animation is a medium as valid as any other for storytelling and it is a fact that it is the superior medium by virtue of being the one capable of reflect an artistic vision through style.

Intended realism is but a constrain to artistic expression. One that is abused because it allows devs to "bypass" design and use generic scans. Same for motion capture. Obviously animation with creative intent is better.

Furthermore claiming anime is infantile on this day an age on which grown men media consumption is almost entirely comprised of CGI slop is almost risible.

They already did that for the PS2. This franchise has been quite weird ever since Sir-Tech went bankrupt.

I strongly doubt you have actually played any of the old Wizardry games.

>Would you enjoy Wizardry if it took place in Smurf village and you could play as Papa Smurf?
I would if it was a good game.

>>723108064
do you like paper mario?

>>723107813
you expect secondary niggers who only played wiz 8 because of some youtube faggots to know that?

Guys I'm a zoomer that is fine with older games and actually prefer them for more high quality game design overall. I wanted to ask something about the Wizardry games, do they still have something about them that makes them stand out really well that I can't find in other series?

I have always wanted to give them a try and would be very open to recommendations. I've seen the remake of the first one and think it looks dogshit, I would rather get recommendations for other versions of it or whatever you guys think are the best.

>>723110885
I'd recommend Llylgamyn Saga on PS1. Out of the old console ports it has the balance closest to the Apple ][ original, and the option to use auto-map if you so choose. There's some visual options you can play with in the options and English for everything but spell descriptions as those were added with that port. The text in English is otherwise pulled from the original release. There's also New Age of Llylgamyn on PS1 too. It has 4 and 5 in it, and lets you move your characters from 3 over to 5 pretty seemlessly. They're just super solid games with solid mechanics right out of the gate, which 5 adds on in some fun ways. Out of the original 3 games, I think Legacy of Llylgamyn (3) has the best designed campaign overall, outside of the initial grind being rough.
If you like those, I would also recommend the Wizardry Gaiden series as they continue from where 5 left off mechanically while also being a bit easier (still engaging games though).

Anime is literally older than you are. Just go to your nearest corner and bang your head against the walls until you feel better.

I also wanted to ask, I hear a lot of people really really praise Wizardry 6.
What is the reason that specific entry is so beloved?

For example I once saw someone claim 7 is the best and a few people say 6 was still not matched. Can't really find a concrete answer.
