Thread 1688863

3D ARPG with baseball "mini-game" from the trio that created Danganronpa (Kodaka/Komatsuzaki/Takada) and Uchikoshi (Zero Escape creator). Launches in a few hours for iOS, Android, and PC (Steam). Anyone trying this out?

https://tribenine.tokyo/ <- also check the site for 1.0 update notes

>>1688863 (OP)
I only learned of its existence yesterday, going to give it a shot.

>>1688863 (OP)
Cautiously optimistic, but something tells me they're going to go full gooner by the end of the year.

>>1689157
You fucking wish

>>1689157
It will seamlessly integrate that if it's anything like DR

>>1688863 (OP)
I mean it looks cool, never played Danganronpa but I always thought the art style was cool. Is the gameplay actually good action combat or is it genshin-esque?

>>1689280
Its like arknights endfield if you played the recent closed beta. Slow paced oldschool JRPG combat

>Get to any mini boss or tougher
>tons of dead idiots
adding dark souls style blood stains is funny, now people can see you're a shitter.

>>1689157
that's good

>>1689874
Yeah, it's great
>see a mountain of dead bodies near a mob I've fought several times up to this point
>it's the same exact mob, just inflated with HP to outlive you if you stand still and mash
So this is the power of gacha gamers

>>1689157
It's from the same people that came up with Toko Fukawa/Genocider Sho sadomasochist and Miu Iruma slut

I appreciate there's actually an explanation for rolling characters you haven't met

>all those corpses in the starting area
how

>>1690123
>given a card that revives you as well
>people still lose to level 2 mobs
I'm telling you, it's the average gacha gamer's capability for gameplay.

iroharape

Is it true that the gachafolks are crying about "bad gameplay" because they are getting wrecked by the game?

>>1690249
Wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest I’m honestly shocked by how people are losing to the first elite mob

>>1688863 (OP)
>(Kodaka/Komatsuzaki/Takada) and Uchikoshi
Yes please inject that shit straight into my veins

>>1690249
people were raging at the open beta, although in that a lot of enemies/bosses could just straight up 1 shot you especially depending on tension level, and there also wasn't a dedicated counterattack skill for every character. They tuned down enemy damage in official release though, and now every character has a dedicated counterattack skill.

I imagine if I build one of the guest characters without owning them they will be unusable when they are needed elsewhere in the plot/get killed?

>>1690353
It sux getting these gold digimon pieces that have a character sub for someone I don't even own lol

>not even 3%
damn you guys weren't kidding

>>1690455
I thought they just let you play around as them while locking out any sort of customization until you get them

the shark fight was kino

Any really stand-out characters to roll for? Or just bee myself?

>all the dead bodies at the very first boss
lol

>>1690697
On my way to join them right now

>>1690706
Just counter bro, the counter is extremely generous. I even countered the missile barrage consecutively.

>>1690715
You're right it was totally fine. They made it much more forgiving than the demo

Nice Megaman reference

>>1690697
it only gets funnier as you progress, the most random fights are apparently brick walls for most players

>>1690734
Someone on the team seems to have a MM boner, Yo's phone profile pic is just Protoman EXE's logo

>pink blood
>arguing battles
>despair
Ahh, home.

>blonde chick is already back from the dead
Actually why should I believe these people are my childhood friends in the first place?

>>1690787
No yeah, im already expecting a bullshit plot twist that they're all in a literal video game or something. Which sucks. I was actually kinda sad that they got killed like that.

>>1690805
>No yeah, im already expecting a bullshit plot twist that they're all in a literal video game or something.
My money's on those two being plants by the bad guy.

>>1690808
Maybe, to fuck with Yo and have them backstab him later on, only because Zero was absolutely seething when Yo said "You aint got no friends". Like how do you respond without sounding mad
Also i just unlocked the games battle pass feature, thats depressing to see.

We Digimon now

>>1689874

>>1690697
>>1690739
I'm going to mass reply to point out that the game is filled with fake bloodstains. Take a look at their profiles. They put some in intentionally funny places, like there's a few in garbage piles and one tripped on some stairs and died around no enemies at all.

>>1690249
The beta had a lot of major combat problems that have mostly been fixed, but there were also a lot of people getting outright filtered by the tutorial boss.

Honestly, i am enjoy the game, running around outside the hotel and fighting random encounters. I dont know why they didnt make it into a real game for like $40-50, i would've dropped that.

>>1690867
Bullshit, videogames wouldn't lie to me like that

The XB stuff is kino

>cant buy the bp directly
the shop is kinda lacking regardless

>>1691169
>8 days to buy the monthly pulls
Yea...

I guess there's not much interest in datamining for this game since I haven't seen anyone post anything, even when Mita was in the beta files. Bit weird since it's Unity and a lot is unencrypted.

There's nothing super interesting but here's a couple things:
Chapter 3 is in Akihabara. If you're unaware, the third city is supposed to be out "shortly after release," with the planned schedule being a city every 3 months afterwards.
Possibly has 5 playable characters based on the profile badges (the 3 in the OP are on some tension cards already)
There's a chunk of art assets for Minato vs Chiyoda, might happen in-game as a way to recap the anime.
Arisugawa's tension card is the only one that has different art for the party menu slots. It was like that in the beta assets, too.
A lot of character icons got scrubbed for the full release, the 5 here being some of them.
There are a lot of totally wild and baseless assumptions you could make based on internal character IDs.

>>1691207
>5
I can't count, by the way.

>ichinose's xb game
>only the fat bastard gets to the base and gets me a point
i have no idea what was going on but i still won, thank you fatty

>>1690875
>I dont know why they didnt make it into a real game for like $40-50,
I expect the idea is to have the gacha fund the studio's regular games more.

>>1691207
>I guess there's not much interest in datamining for this game since I haven't seen anyone post anything, even when Mita was in the beta files.
Because I don't normally go looking for spoilers in Kodaka/Uchikoshi games, half the fun comes from the batshit twists.

>>1691275
>batshit
>bat
hehehehe.....

>>1691275
That never stops everyone, though. The Hundred Line demo is getting torn apart for info.

On the subject of spoilers, the devs themselves spoiled a huge chapter 2 twist, so it's a good idea to never watch their trailers if you stick with the game.

There's a 2 hour maintenance in about 12 hours.
>● Add "Enigma Entity x 40" to the "Daily Challenge" reward
>● The reward for "Mr. Zeropen" will be increased from "5 Enigma Entities" to "40 Enigma Entities"

>>1691169
It's like the same price as usual but not being able to do it directly adds a weird awkward barrier.

Alright i just wanted to ask because i dont know if maybe i just blinked and missed it, but during the first XB game against Zero, why was Jio outted after one single pitch? Not even a strike? Meanwhile Yo gets strikes with no issue right after, was it just the devs being like "oh lets just fast forward thru Jio so we can get this scene over with"

>>1691581
Because for some reason, he wanted to play the death games with Yo, not the others, so he gets special treatment.

>>1691581
>oh lets just fast forward thru Jio so we can get this scene over with
I assumed it was just this yeah

The boss card drop rate seems like what I expected.

>>1691581
It very quickly shows him getting three stikes after you make your choice.

>>1691763
Damn, yeah I figured the drop rates for the boss card would be awful. At least I need the shark fins for Tsuruko.

>game warns me about extremely strong enemies on the map that i should avoid or walk around slowly
>"Okay, where the fuck is it?"
>start walking
>Suddenly grant robot sprite comes from the left side of the screen where i had entered the area from
>panic quick travel
Okay, that got me.

Honestly, i would go back to Danganronpa games if they stuck with this style of models. Like they really drive home the exaggerated expressions and movements for each character, and they look so clean. I think my only gripe so far is that (yeah its gacha) and that they somehow made Zero into Monokuma v.8, like literally managed to turn him into an animal mascot for no real reason after his real introduction. That concept is just something they will never stop doing.

>>1691988
Nips love their annoying mascots, they will never stop

Huh, are there any reasons not to use the guest characters?

>>1692020
Missing exp for your own characters I guess

>>1692020
If you're at exp cap, it's a free trial for the character for that chapter.

>buff rat boss in the sewers almost tearing my ass a new one
>clutched it with just one character standing
That would've been my first death. Fate averted.

This green shota keeps screaming like he's dying every time we win a fight, it's very misleading.

>>1692513
I find it more weird that most enemies seem to have the same girly scream on death, even the rat shoe things.

what did you guys spend your rank up gems on? i feel like i should just put them all on the passives...

>every time i do anything in minato city i get likes and subscribes
It's like I am a real ethot

why is this game's /vg/ general so awful

>>1693154
SEA hours

>>1693154
SEAmonkies are raiding it

bros Yo is so fucking useful, his support ability should be ranked higher.

>>1693154
It became a hugbox safespace in the span of two days, truly a sight to see.

What are the wonder stamps for? Should i be focusing on the dailies that give them?

>>1693430
You can exchange them at the Antenna Shop for items. The best ones to exchange for are probably those blue rarity items that your characters ask for since the only other source is rarely from chests, or the dungeons.

>>1693154
You only go to /vg/ to go be a ERPer, EOS sperg, or... just be a sperg. You have no other reason to go there, and that goes for every other general sadly.

>telling a shitposter that what he's posting is wrong information is considered being a sperg
lol

How do i get to this area? Kinda sucks that the map doesnt update when we reach new areas. Like i got the Hotel Floor 40 key, and the map didnt bother updating even though i went running around the whole area and got to the Rift, same with the Docks.

>>1693819
it was either through dream wharf (one of the countless shortcuts there) or through south west from that 26 stamps gate sorry don't really remember

>>1693819
Take the hotel elevator to basement 10. From there, you'll find another sewer entrance with the fat hero NPC from the first one. Getting done with that area leads you there and to the rift thats there.

>sat down to look at the support contract pass and the costs
>the advance upgrade is triple the cost and you get literal jack shit extra rewards. A fucking profile banner, 2 fucking pull tokens, and the same amount of enhancement currency one easily gets from doing afew daily missions
These niggas serious?

Rerolling for an hour and have not seen a single 3 star

>>1694203
I rerolled for 2 days until i got her and Enoki. Not much to expect with rates that incredibly low.

i dont get the shark fight, sometimes when i break it and starts flopping around before it nukes the entire screen it wont leave a safe area but other times it does?

>>1694264
lure the shark to the bomb

>>1694269
damn im retarded, thanks

>wonderboxes can give skins
Too bad it gave me one for a character I don't have

>>1694302
I managed to get 5 skins, and none of them were for characters I owned, incredible.

EOS within a year because they just had to be so damn greedy with the rates

>>1694572
Hope they just release the full story on YouTube or something, it’d be a waste.

So this just strips away her ability to heal HP for the team just for more damage? I dont know if that sounds like a great idea imo.

>>1695984
yeah it makes her more offensive instead of a support while still using support points as base

>>1695984
>>1695985
doesn't this mean her passive 1 which is a heal buff is effectively useless?

noooo I was right in the middle of a cutscene

>>1695990
Yeah, her build is dependent on your team. If you have a second character that can heal, you spec into her passive 2 instead since it buffs her damage through the skybox.
If you don't have a secondary healer like Yo (seriously, his passive 2 is so good, only needs 1 point), or a team that doesn't really need heals (Roku and a second ranged), then you mostly level her normal attack and put leftover points into her passive 1.

holy fuck they're overcorrecting to an insane degree

By the way, if you want to get Tsuruko, do it now. They're going to refund all of the gems and standard summons you use from now until 3/3

>added a quick kill on low level encounters
>suddenly swimming in booster drops
I recommend everyone just running around low level areas and farming boosters, and then trading the boosters in for stamps at the shop or using them on vaults that have stuff you need, i feel like they're gonna be nerfing drop rates with this.

>>1694269
Holy fucking shit that made this fight a billion times easier. I thought I had to time the explosions or something

>>1694576
Tales of Crestoria's story has to be finished via a manga that never got localized, you'll be lucky if Tribe Nine gets even that if EOS happens

Is the golden mouse shoe enemy supposed to drop anything rare? Its the only regular encounter i cant quick kill despite being overleveled, but it only ever drops some cash.

>>1703363
Gold ratshoe is the "metal slime" of this game iirc, it gives a lot of EXP than usual mobs

>>1703371
Ah, my characters are at their limit so i dont see the gains, thank you

>>1694572
even if they weren't greedy with the rates.
I don't think the game had enough content to really pull people away from existing gacha.
Also the combat and tension card system needed more polish, they released too soon.

Just beat chapter 2. Can we talk about that rollercoaster of ending?

>>1709018
This thread is pretty slow anon, there's a general on /vg/
Anyway, it was pretty wild

Is the gameplay fun and how is the story

Where are you getting that information? Give me a something about leaks
>>1691207

Plz fucking tell me Sui will be fucking back. That shit was traumatizing as fuck.

>>1691207
>Mostly females
It's so fucking joever

>>1712587
gacha easy money cope

>>1709577
>Story
Good. I feel like they're going to pull the bullshit Dangan twists that those games overdo, but only time will tell.
>Gameplay
Gets repetitive after awhile, but challenging fights can be fun if you actually learn to DODGE. Getting the right synergy with cards and patimon passives can also make it enjoyable and flow really nicely.

>>1712588
that's more males than the average hoyo year

Man the muse dash event is so peak
>>1717819
I mean fair but atp they're gonna commit literal manslaughter like genshin did

>>1717829
no way, the anime is chock full of guys they'd have to commit gender genocide to get rid of them all.

>>1709018

[Important] End of Service Announcement

Thank you for your continued support of TRIBE NINE.

We regret to inform you that service for TRIBE NINE will be terminated on November 27th, 2025 JST.

Since the game's launch, the development and operations teams have strived to provide excellent service and improve player experience. However, after careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to end the game's service.

Unfortunately, this also means we are unable to deliver Ch. 4 of the story, which we had previously announced.
We apologize for the sudden nature of this announcement to all our players.

Information regarding the service termination schedule and any related procedures will be made through in-game notices and on the official website.


That didn't take long Jesus.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Expected

Is now a good time to play this game?

>>1742898
No? It's not getting a single update until it goes offline in november. That being said, we don't even know if there'll be an offline version or something similar you can play after that so yea, just in case I'd try playing the story before that happens

>>1742910
>an offline version
>with just 3 chapters and not much content
Bold of you to be optimistic after announced EoS.

Afaik, offline versions of gacha usually and already has more content than this game lol they also lived way longer than this game lmao

>>1742916
Games like this tend to either get a reboot at some point, or they take whatever they've created and build a normal game, and be it a cash grab, on it.

It's not doing an eos because it's not longer generating enough money. It extremely likely never got into earning anything to begin with, with such an early eos move. Trying to earn some money out of already created stuff is the usual procedure then, if it doesn't fully bankrupt the company in question.

>>1742916
The game literally has more than enough content for an offline content, wtf, your brasin is probably too fried from gacha with how much overwhelming content they have but it's definitely more than enough
>>1742926
That's just an assumption, we will never know, but given many games survive with less revenue and the CEO himself said they were gonna EOS, as well as game completely cancelling all future content even when it's finished with no campaign at all until november could hint at an unexpected situation that forcefully had them have to EOS, like for example Tookyo games getting the license of the game (this is my personal theory with everything going on with the hundred line) for a relaunch

Yikes I didn't expect this game to last long but this is nuts.

Kodaka's reaction to the EOS being "Hey, don't look at me. I had almost nothing to do with this shit." is funny as fuck

IT’S OVER.

JUST FUCK MY SHIT UP doesn't even begin to describe this.

This and Sakura Kakumei are the proof to not take any vmg shills seriously lmao

>>1743335
>Sakura Kakumei
>shills

Good riddance

I don't regret gambling on it succeeding, that's just how things go sometimes
These cute girls existed, they were here and they were cute

>>1743335
>That fucking guy who made the massive cope post like a day or so before the EoS announcement

>>1688863 (OP)
So this shit won't even last 1 thread?

>>1743737
That's Japanese gacha for you, I guess. It's sad seeing my first post on this thread, who knew 3 months was all it took to kill a game?

>>1744223
The ones I play have no issues lasting half or a full decade.

>more male than female characters
>EoS speed run
noticing

>>1694572
Wellnow

>>1743340
>These cute girls existed, they were here and they were cute
Yeah, shame they have to be in this mess of a game. Just another mismanagement
>>1744223
Would be nice if they made more girl units instead of boys. I don't care about males, even in Danganronpa, I couldn't give a rats ass about them much less gacha where I rather pull for girls only.

>>1744261
So what is this, retard

>>1744261
It's more like a Japan moment

>>1744454
NTA, but if you actually don't just want to shit post, inform yourself. There's a lot of shitty corporate related stuff that happened.

10. BILLION. YEN.

>>1744649
>There's a lot of shitty corporate related stuff that happened.
Same with this game

>>1745445
Exactly what I was gonna say lmfao how did that retard not even read his comment before posting it to realize what a retarded point that is

>>1745445
The Love Live game eosed essentially before launch for a reason. It didn't bomb. It didn't have terrible sales or anything of that sort. Companies were just companies and shit happened before any sales even mattered.

This game may have had a terrible launch, but so damn many gacha did and they recovered. The Atelier gacha (dead in Global because TK fucking sucks, but alive in JP) or the Wizardry Gacha come to mind. They had AWFUL launches, respectively.
The Atelier gacha was expensive as fuck, greedy on rolls and had no real pity or anything of that sorts, they had to damage control extremely hard. I gave it 6 months, but it's still here.
The Wizardry Gacha had to delay any new content and essentially just do bug fixes and whatnot for well over a month post launch, because basically nobody could play the game in a reasonable way.

Post EOS it's easy to say "well, yeah, the launch sucked" but I've seen that a lot, and the games lasted much longer regardless.

>>1745708
I mean look no further than FGO for a horrible launch experience.

>>1745708
And the company literally owns dokkan battle, they are not low on money, and the way they just got rid of T9 after how long and much money it took to develop shows

refunds?

>/vg/ general dead
I guess this is our new home, tribebros...

Owari da...

>>1750694
we had a good run bwo lol no

even if this game was japan's concord, the good thing is no one knew it even existed so it doesnt count!

I can't believe /tng/ is fucking dead

I was asleep and nobody else made the thread... This might be the last one I make anyways.
>>>/vg/525209893

>>1750701
That was Blue Protocol

>>1750701
Not nearly expensive enough, there have been plenty of other huge budget jap failures recently.
The Sakura Wars gacha was 100x worse than this.

eos waiting room

This thread lasted longer than the game...

Tsuki doesn't deserve this fate, she should've been in a better game

>>1750841
Kek you're right you can't make this shit up lmao

https://t9.ilovefriedorc.com/

Tribbers will be live on forever...

It died while I was asleep...
Guess this is it until refund news is out.

it's even more tribeover than it was previously thought possible...

tried to dump my currency because I don't want the refund at then end but I can't even spend the remaining single digits enigma lmao

>>1753524
>It died while I was asleep...
same...

>made another thread
yeah nah i shant be bumping that corpse

>>1753832
Yeah it's beyond pathetic at this point. Why subject the thread to life support if the game is already dead?

>>1750754
>sakura wars
>recently

>Kaiju No 8 manga cancelled and ending before the game even has a release date
Eat shit Akatsuki.

it's over

its never been more over than this

Rest in pieces /tng/.

Happy birthday Saigo my beloved
Rest in peace /tng/

we will survive

>>1760499
...on a dead board...

>>1760494
It's nice that even Roku's getting art on his birthday. Definitely not as much as blue man but more than the zero I thought he'd get.

>>1760616
He DID carry a number of shitters during the game's lifespan so he is more memorable then you'd think.

>>1759126
>Kaiju no.8 got cancelled
Is this really how I find out?

im gonna check this thread every time akatsuki gets screwed by their incompetency

>>1760612
Threads on this board being able to survive for years just shows this board was a mistake I will continue to pray that something good comes out for Tribe Nine in the far future

we're so fucking back

>>1762198
He's a legend. I still can't conceive the idea that this man is coming to my country and I'm gonna be in front on him and able to ask anything about any of his games. Not like he ever knew much about T9's development, but we'll see what happens to it.

>>1762198
If he denies me my refund I'm going to be pissed
There'll be some autist who's been playing the game every single day regardless who will have a massive stockpile of gems to show for it

He would've saved the game.....

>>1762218
he was the one who killed the game though...

>>1762224
I would have saved the game had I been allowed to pull for him though...

>>1762226
That's kinda gay

kaiju status?

>>1762376
eso in 8 months

>>1762376
will sell more than tribe eos

the xitter for kaiju hasnt posted about reaching max preregs yet...

I miss tribe nine.

>>1762470
>>1762472
sometimes i feel pretty sad about eos but then i remember that shit like this is 90% of the fanart the game/ip gets and i suddenly feel better

>>1762588
this is why tales of series died though...

>>1762398
They're gonna have to either fake those or just announce cancellation before even opening service and I hope it's the latter because if it's the former it's gonna be so fucking obvious

we're making /k8g/ when the game launches and playing together, right bwos?

>>1762860
I'm not touchinig anything Akatsuki works on until they release Tribe Nine complete offline version, aka never

>>1766502
LOL

>>1766502
They're trying to figure out how to back out of saying everyone was getting 2 yen per paid gem after realising how fucking insane that was.

>tribe virgin
shits and kills itself while trying to placate third worlders
>shadowchad
overwhelmingly negative reviews, everyone plays the game anyway

>>1766514
>while trying to placate third worlders
I don't even know who they were trying to placate with almost every decision they made, desu. Whales were set for the next few banners (and with how fucking slow banners came out, that's bad for charts), poorfags also got two banner's worth of getting the 3 star character. I really do wish the suits gave the game more of a fighting chance.
Then again, looking at the rest of Akatsuki's track record, pulling the plug when it's not another Dokkan is the norm. It's in my best interest to make Kaijufags aware that the game will EoS if it doesn't hit Dokkan numbers day 1.
It is what it is.

>>1766514

>>1770721
I would if Lux Phantasma was still available or if they actually let us fight the red tree but as of now I have no reason to anymore.

>>1770721
Just to play XB now and then, other than that, what little content we were left with can only occupy for so long

>>1770721
Play SD Gundam Eternal.

kaiju status?

Did they release the script pdf in the end?

>>1771949
no(t yet?)

>>1771949
Don't expect them to do anything else until actual EoS date.

I don't believe you

refund news?

>>1770721
no, too busy with p5x

Saizobros....we didn't have a change to roll for him

saizo would have unironically saved tribe niner

so has kodaka tweeted anything new about his plan to save the game

>>1779667
He's busy writing Hundred Line DLC.

>>1779265
Sucks to see how this turned out for the game. It sucks even more that a new account checking out the game just has 3 characters that can never be obtained outside of the crappy rentals in story.

>>1779667
ror

>>1771949
Do not expect it until the EOS date. I forgot when they said it would be dead. November 10th?

>>1779265
The worst part about this was seeing the leaked models lol. Crazy stuff.

>>1766085
>>1765943
These posts did not age well with the attacks on Umamusume and praising P5X lol.

>>1780357
Are you sure about that?

>>1780411
whats wong here?

>>1780569
The localisation removed any mention of Christmas even when the characters are literally saying "merry Christmas" with accompanying voice lines.

>>1780580
Ah I see

>>1780411
Yes I am sure about that.

THERE'S STILL HOPE

WE ARE SO BACK

It's been ten minutes and I still can't open the site to read the new shit. What the fuck

FUCKING HELL

Oh nice, it's published already? Site's fucked for me too though.

holy sex

>first bet against against Ruri is guessing whether the number of balls in the room is odd or even
>if you pick even, the number of balls is odd
>if you pick odd, the number of balls is even
I'm seeing the Uchikoshi part of Tookyo games' involvement

this shit is so ass, fuck akatsuki...

>>1783114
>Game died before sex dropped
Life truly is unfair

thinking of all the kino we macfugking lost...

This XB script format is confusing. I keep getting lost

>had all this content they couldnt just put out for people to have something to do until EoS like 6 months later
holy JEWs

>>1783235
Announcing EoS an hour before a character was supposed to be out and not even releasing him will always be the funniest shit. It's just so absurd that I couldn't even be upset at the level of managerial retardation.

>>1783248
>>1783249
>>1783251
>>1783253
i wouldve lost GALLONS... what could have it been bros...

>>1783214
>>1783217
Bros, why did things have to turn out this way

tribe nine status: suicide by shot in the back of the head
kaiju 8 status: stillborn
akatsuki status: 2 nukes werent enough

so the theory that a few anons had when the game first started, that the characters were robots was really close to the truth

it's such a shame that they didn't release shinjuku, which I would argue would've boosted the games popularity, compared to the otori chapter that played into the largley non-existent anime fanbase

it's also nice that they expanded upon the "q came back but he's not exactly the same" with the clones things, but it really makes me wonder what tsuki lost when she came back

I lol'd at jio not being a cuck for miu anymore

Damn Taito was a really important chapter fuck. At least Q was able to figure out he was missing something. Leaving him ignorant of what happened was sad

Akutajin was right about continues being shit and robbing the value of death
But also please continue tribe nine in some form

soo....qrd of ch4 and 5 stories?

Now Miu will chase Jio except not really because the game is dead.

The way it was handled seems genuinely malicious, not toward the players but the team.

>>1783475
haha......

>>1783214
>>1783217
>downvoted for throwing a truth nuke
This game never had a chance because of the playerbase it had
Trannies and homo lovers that never supported this game

>>1783475
>had huge tits and sexy thighs around the corner
Tsuruko's game didn't deserve to crater as hard as it did.

>>1783131
>>1783134
>3 chapters without tsuruko
game deserved to die tbdesu

>>1783485
It was basically destined to fail. There was no reason to spend money, the great white filter decimated the player base, and people who wanted to whale to win and skip everything couldn't because of the zero gates which you cannot pay to skip.

>4.99 refund
t-thanks I have a huge one coming in november though.

>>1783493
It's brutal looking at the story related drop-offs. The percentages probably look worse due to the EoS announcement getting people to actually see what this game was. Regardless though,
>barely 5% of the player-base even completed the third chapter

Taito was gonna be comfy as hell...

>>1783485
The chapter coming out and the model having spats under the dress would've cratered it anyway, obviously censorship when the CGs had the gap in the skirt riding up to her hips.

>Need to make sure you keep the game installed and your account linked to claim the refund after the service end date
Devious

Just got here from /vg/ T9. What the fuck lol. We were screwed heavily on the next chapter with the hostess.

>>1783214
Man that was the chance to pull all the stops. Too bad we never had that chance.

>>1783234
Most likely it was all being written at the time. But because they were all fired it was not done yet.

>>1783249
Not only that but this was right after the investor conference and they said nothing in advance. The least anyone can do is let them finish up the chapters and give an ending.

>>1783417
I am going to look into it. Because apparently it speaks about Clones and Tsuki.

The final XB Match. Fake Character Scarecrows vs the real characters.

Here it is guys. I did my best to summarize everything. But here is the links in English. It's mostly accurate with names being literal and sometimes gender being off.

>>1783417
Look below here it's to the /vg/ version summarized.
>>530802195
It's a lot but it's as good as I can do with the huge amounts of writing in these sections. It feels like it really went all out the last 3 chapters.

TL:DR

>Jio dies no longer has feelings for Miu
>No longer will cook for Miu
>Q realizes that he no longer has his memories as Ojiro
>The it's a "Game" "Continues" "Extra Lives" and "Memories can be regained" is very much plausible as discussed on Chapter 5 and the important XB match.

>>1784184
this is the ending for Chapter 5. Keep in mind, they are in the Taito Underground Cultivation Room and Yo texted Tsuki on NINE asking how he used to be. Before this conversation took place.

>>1784187
Meant to post this image.

Some notes: Black Midday is Kuronaka, Zi-o is Jio, also Akihabara Daisy is Hinagiku.

>>1784182
jiobros they never even let us shine before nuking it all...

WE BACK?

>fanart still coming in even though the game is dead
Feels bad, man. Good art too.

>>1784508
We tribing now

it's saizover

Rereading the XB Match right now makes it more interesting. Dust wishes to get rid of the Continues and wishes for permanent death. He has been in control of the "Remaining Lives" of this world and wishes to erase Continues and Zero. A life without death to Dust/Akutagawa is meaningless. It "Cheapens" everything.

>>1784588
Miu is trying to explain having Continues does not lose meaning and Jio is grateful for the fact he is still alive despite losing something important. Also this is entering Meta territory for Yo(you the player) as he has had to continue many times after dying and has most likely lost his sense of self in this process.

>>1784589
Yo is asking himself why he knows nothing about Sui or Tsuki, where they are born, where they died, various things are lost. Miu reassures Yo he can regain his memories back somehow if he keeps "continuing"

>>1784590
Yo is entering back in Chapter 2 territory again. Where he has finally entered Darkness mode. He has regained who he is, just by conquering XB, defeating the Numbers, and realizes if you lose your memories you can eventually regain them back. Continues must exist.

>>1784591
At the end of the XB Match Zero explains that Akutagawa's reward was he could control the remaining lives and manipulate them. Yo asks Zero if he can truly regain what he lost. Zero basically says that is what he already did against Akutagawa and to prepare for the next chapter.

>>1784593
Forgot photo.

>>1784184
This is the missing beginning part to this scene. Only time he texts Tsuki on NINE. This scene is interesting because it means Zero and Yo know each other more than they let on.

>>1784170
Some key notes here.

1. Dust is the boss form of Akutagawa which is something i forgot because it's mostly text and I kept forgetting he has a beast form.
2. Lapus Pazuli is Ruriiro as is old blue pond(it's translated literal sadly)
3. Black Midday is Yo. Sometimes the text will say "YOU" when it's just them talking about Yo.
Akihabara Daisy is Hinagiku
4. Falling In Love is Hiyori or Yayoi again Japanese is translated literal.
5. Zio is basically JIO
6. Oujiro is Ojiro

Anytime you see /Communication it most likely means using COMS like device communication. /Reminiscence is a flashback scene etc this is to indicate what is happening in the scene. This is just notes for fellow Translators or those wishing to archive everything.

Note: I do not know who Black Chuyou is.

>>1784588
This is Chapter 5 XB Match. As for Chapter 4 it was against NUMBERS 7 Ruriiro. Chapter 5 is NUMBER 2 Dust/Akutagawa.

>>1783417
I will copy and paste from /vg/ to here with Chapter 4.


>Miu hints about the new Numbers the muscular guy in the NINE chat. But can not say more due to censorship.
>Ichinosuke, Hina, Koishi join Yo.
>Yo and the rest of Trash Tribe meetup in Shinjuku with Miu and Hikaru who seem to know each other.

>Hikaru is with a Noisy woman, and a quiet woman
>There is a bet on which one will be chosen by Yo this is foreshadow for XB Rules
>XB rules are on Multiple Choice Gambling aka one hit revolution Heaven Or Hell.
>Pachinko Balls will be used as Gambling
>If you win you get double
>If you lose and have no Pachinko Balls left you are taken away by Mr.D(Zero) Robot.
>You can borrow or lend balls
>But with lending Balls the person who gave them to you can charge back WITH Interest, and have a set time limit
>Mio explains that the deadline can be tomorrow and they can owe as much as 10X interest of what is lended.
>If you do not pay you will be taken underground(Kaiji Reference)
>Shinjuku is all about Repayment and Debt Collection.

>>1784603
>The Pro Wrestler guy is named Dust
>Mio and Jio have a history with him.
>Dust is betting on Trash Tribe to win.
>Later in the game Zero has a problem with Dust aka Akutagawa because he broke the Governing Rules by going into the other city and began instigating in the XB game.
>Dust suggests killing Ruriiro in order to win on the XB rules
>In a moment of weakness Miu tries to kill Ruriiro and fails
>Miu and Jio’s backstory cover when they were taught by Akutagawa to become Assassin’s in Kita City.
>Akutagawa is head of this organization and raised Miu, Jio since they were kids and raised like a trained Animal to kill people.
>Miu used to be a hostess to get closer to her targets to kill them.
>Miu confronts Ruriiro again in the underground Shinjuku Cave and Jio brings up the past about how Miu said “I no longer wish to kill anymore” and Jio was surprised as they had the same upbringing.
This is a flashback sequence
>Jio says what other meaning is there in life when all they can do is kill people
>Miu says “If I give you a reason to live, will you run away with me”
>Jio says he will look the other way and she can run away on her own.
>Miu says Jio is like family to her, Jio says it’s stupid to have such feelings.
>Miu says she will be his meaning to live his life, to have fake feelings, to believe in them and leave this bad life of Assasinations
>Miu says “Love and Protect me Jio, this will be your life from this moment on”
>They run away from Kita city together

>>1784608
>Jio decides to murder Ruriiro with an Assassin Chop.
>Jio is penalized through Governing Rules
>Vaporized by Mr.D
>Trash Tribe begs Zero to save Jio, Miu mentions that she does not wish to be alone in her life.
>Zero accepts but tells them to not have their hopes up.
>Turns out there is another Ruriiro or multiple, Trash Tribe wins the bet due to noticing that one Ruriiro died and another one then appeared at the shop. This was confirmed by Mr.D so Trash Tribe wins the bet on how Ruriiro has been Champion for so long and is impossible to beat.
> Trash Tribe challenges Ruriiro to an XB Match.

>>1784609
Main Story Chapter 4 "Shinjuku" City Story XB Scenario

The whole match basically revolves around exposing that despite multiple Ruriiro’s existing there is slight differences to each one such as eye-shadow, feelings, mannerisms. She keeps denying this and says they think the same or alike. This is to find out who the real Ruriiro is. Turns out it is Rumi who used to work in the Hostess Club with Hikaru, Yayoi, and Hiyori as a Maid.

Akutagawa aka Pro Wrestler guy aka Dust then walks in pushes Hikaru and others who were nearby grabs Rumi by the neck and then murders her through strangling. Space Lasers activate, and Akutagawa is still standing after taking a hit from it. Everyone is trying to fight Akutagawa but are shoved away including Yo. Yo picks up Sui’s beam bat, and begins to fight DUST aka Akutagawa as an actual Boss Fight similar to Sui. Once Yo has won Akutagawa then is zapped and vaporized.

Some notes about what Zero says "Human life is always close to death...
and that is why it has value"

>>1784611
I will go with Chapter 5 next.

>Hikaru goes with Yo and crew to Taito.
>Theme for Taito is the one with the most valueable possessions becomes the champion of Taito
>Everyone is a merchant essentially
>Akutagawa treats humans as a commodity
>In order to win you would need possessions more valueable than human life as rules setup by Akutagawa Number 2! Who is STILL Alive despite being zapped and dead.
>There is a theory that if they find out how Yo, Akutagawa, came back to life, they can learn about Jio.
>Q asks what they mean about Jio
>Yo says Jio has been acting strange and ever since he himself died once, he felt like something important was missing.
>A woman murders some people
>They manage to find her and ask how she was able to avoid killing
>She reveals her name as Asagao and says the Town is full of "Fakes" she even mentions how Sakura Hanafuda is a "Fake" as well
>Yo and the others feel uncomfortable after speaking with Asagao and wonder why Ueno left the NINE App.
>Ueno admits he has died once protecting Sakura Hanafuda when Taito was under the rule of Akutagawa who quickly grew in the high ranking position
>Akutagawa was stabbed but came back to life
>Ueno does not remember Taito Tribe, he remembers everything else, but not Taito Tribe.
>Miu notices a theme in this story, that everyone who has died and come back to life has LOST SOMETHING.
>Jio has changed, he is very distant, he no longer has feelings for Miu
>Once you die you lose something important
>Q asks if Jio remembers using Salt in his cooking
>Miu mentions she does not know, and Jio may never cook for her again
>Q mentions that he may have died once
>He does not know of this "Ojiro" anyone mentions
>If Jio lost his feelings for Miu, then Q may have lost his own memories of being Ojiro and that of Kazuki.

>>1784612
>The Trash Tribe, Taito Tribe, Morning Glory aka Asagao all arrive in the secret Underground Cultivation room
>They are realizing it's hundreds of bodies in tanks
>all of the members can see themselves in the Tanks
>These bodies in these tanks are called Scarecrows in which are used to sell humans as a commodity
>All of them leave the underground and are confronted by Akutagawa
>Akutagawa talks about Death and if it has any meaning
>Yo challenges Akutagawa to a XB match, Akutgawa Accepts and brings out the Scarecrow clones of Tribe Nine.

>>1784614
and the rest can be summarized with the post here >>1784588 for XB Match and the aftermath. Trust me it's a lot of stuff, a lot of parsing but it's really full of interesting things. Also I do realize Heckler is Ueno and Falling In Love is the Redhead.

>available story drop doesn't go far enough to mention this green cutie
Sad but makes sense. This really should've been anything but a gacha.

>>1784620
At this point they should try to salvage it by releasing a full version for 80$ and stack on DLC Artbooks/Soundtrack that would put it in 120$ territory. Everyone would buy. It would make their money back and restore faith in Akatsuki. If not just do a REBOOT lol. Also it's weird to know they were far enough to have her model and others ready to have content for the year.

>>1784508
I wish lol. At least Tookyogames is no longer worried about being bankrupt. But I still am going to show support by buying more copies for my friends. Hopefully Kodaka revisits a gacha version of Danganronpa that can surpass Tribe Nine.

Akihabara Daisy would have saved Tribe Nine...

>>1784588
>>1784589
>>1784590
>>1784591
>>1784593
We really missed out on kino...
I will never forgive Akatsuki.

>>1784850
>I will never forgive Akatsuki.
Same anon. same. all my hate for the akatsuki.

>>1784853
tsuki pit rape

>>1780823
>>1780357
Asmon played the ironic weeb horse gacha
Asmon didn't play the persona game
Know the difference

>>1784608
Miu with this skin would've saved the game

Looks like if we all just endured Saizo we would have been rewarded with peak.

>>1785555
The outlook was so dire they decided to kill it right there instead of hoping they could turn it around.
I also wonder if maybe they couldn't bear to witness the triple threat of Blue Archive on Steam and Umamusume and P5X finally arriving in English, all during Saizo's banner.

>>1784816
That's Hinagiku.
>>1784850
Agreed. I hope Kodaka stays true to his word and tries to salvage it. Because honestly he characters and world are worth it.

>>1785555
>>1785680
Honestly I felt like the changes they were making felt very close to making it easily accessible to everyone. Especially with narrow paths easy enemies and a boss fight that was not hard. While also making a superboss and a hidden boss challenge. We were probably doomed with Saizo but the Characters and World really were amazing. It felt like we had a lot to look forward to with the hostesses in Chapter 4 and deep intrigue on Chapter 5 with everything coming together.

>>1785716
They fucked launch too badly, they hopped to form a small niche of diehard niners.
but you need the casual audience.

we could've gotten the sexo designs but they decided to release a FATTY for no reason

SAIZO THE FAT KILLED THE GAME

Reminder that stinky hobo and XBgirl were getting maid outfits

if we survived the saizo banner it wouldve been so funny bros

>>1786164
I'm glad it died right before his rate-up so Akatsuki owes me more in my November refund.

>>1786150
>>1786276
microbikini saizo would have made tribillions

I don't get the Saizo meme. Everyone likes using joke characters in an RPG
.

>>1786276
>>1786308
a new challenger ENTERS

>>1786308
would you spend real money to unlock the joke character in an RPG though

>>1786308
Who the fuck would've pulled for that nugget as a 5 star?
He should've been a 4 star glued to a hot female banner, that way no one would've been upset when getting him as an accident

>>1785911
Yes it's all about balance honestly. You can have things that satisfy both audiences.

>>1786276
He would have made Tribillions.

>>1786358
Me a Whale.

>>1786156
That will never not make me mad with those leaks. We were not only going to get them but I have a feeling we were going to get way more fanservice outfits. The sad part is that I think nobody has posted any new leaked models from the Beta since that one thread that showed that the Space Lady and Numbers were fully modeled.

>>1786384
They posted all they could find, what do you want. They didn't actually have models in game.

>>1786276
>didn't even need to release to cause EoS
Such power behind this dopey face.

>>1786420
I thought they had more. I mean there was that Beta CBT some anon posted and no one followed up since. It was interesting to see them fully textured in the unreleased pages for Tribe Nine with the Animations.

>>1786384
>>1786852
In one of the last /vg/ threads someone posted a folder of all the ripped files including models and art, good luck finding it again now though.

>>1786893
i dled it back then and it didn't have anything new that hasn't already been posted

>>1786852
All those rips were from the CBT files.

the devs did not trust his future banner... :(

>>1787076
Wait REALLY?! Even the dressed up outfits from Tsuki? That's sad. I hope maybe whoever has those files can upload them to The Cutting Room Floor or an Archive site for fun.

>>1786358
>>1787385
I'm genuinely shocked they thought to run the peanut as a 5*. But with their release schedule I can only assume they wanted to use him as a filler between the two patches.

we will never know how the story ends....

>>1787858
Sadly i wish it could continue. But with how it ended on Chapter 5. At least we know that the world is a game.

>>1787858
kodaka should tell us.

>>1788724
100 endings
and they are all fujobait trash

>>1788751
>100 endings
kek

>tfw the new inazuma eleven game got delayed yet again for another 3 months
>10 years of development and hardly any advertisement
im seeing a pattern with nip devs...

>>1789397
To be fair Tribe Nine started development twice. Insazuma Eleven most likely has the same team and same concept but are ultra autistic about Gameplay and details. I do wish Tribe Nine could be pushed out as a full game for 80$ or 100$ at the very least. Akatsuki could make their money back and good will with that move.

>>1788724
Sadly i do not think he is interested and was being polite. But still maybe he could write a LN and end it or figure something out to revive it as a full game. Who knows.

Horse girl game is pretty cute but with every gacha I try I just get more sad about Tribe Nine's failure. It shouldn't have been gacha in the first place, like everything about its structure is directly opposed to that monetization method.

They should re release the game as standalone premium titles like Atelier Resleriana did. I haven't really had a chance to play the game due to my massive backlog so it just kinda sad to hear the news about them closing down 4 months into its operation

they shouls release a soulslike rogulite with enoki as protag

>>1787858
Saizo defeats the final boss.

>>1789736
>They should re release the game as standalone premium titles like Atelier Resleriana did.
I don't know why people keep making this mistake but Resna 2 is not a remake of the mobile game, it's a sequel.

Hundred Line is a sequel to Tribe Nine

>>1762398
Reached it

We have arrived.
Let's save the game

>>1790109
>*could've saved your game in your path*

>>1790109
The only thing that fat fuck is saving is brownies for dessert

>>1790109
he will save kaiju eito...!

>>1790064
We did it xisters...

>>1790064
>couldnt even pretend to fake 1 million preregs
It's akaover...

anon this game died...

NEW PREREG MILESTONE JUST DROPPED, WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT KAIJUBROS

>>1789716
Umamusume is great overall i do agree. The more I watch the Anime and play the game and see the Monetization the more I realize Tribe Nine should have stuck to that format. I do hope someone in Japan tries to do this concept but better.

>>1791044
>>1790064
Lol this game is going to flop when it comes out.

>>1789906
May as well be with Chapter 5's ending.

>>1791426
But as a game, Tribe Nine's whole appeal was that it wasn't the typical gacha skinner box. All your suggestions to fix it would rip the soul and fun right out of it.

>>1791044
.....

4 more months for the giga refund...

I could have had one if I had dropped the game right away in disgust like others did, but nooo, I had to spend all my refund enigma to get cards and characters to experiment with and squeeze out a few more hours of gameplay. Still can't get over them deliberately misleading people by waiting an entire week to even bring up refunds so they'd have less to pay out. I feel especially bad for their resident vtuber ambassadors who streamed themselves dumping the rest of their currency.

>>1791439
To put it in a different way I think some of the conventions that went against what a Mobile game is kind of hurt it's chances in Asia and therefore basically went into EOS territory quickly.
>>1792317
At least they are getting done with 3.5 and 4. But 5 is going to be very painful to translate just because it's a lot of text. Going through the Webpage version to summarize everything was a pain. Actually translating it will be even more painful.

>A week before Ichinosuke's banner
>Begin to notice Tsuruko is nerfed more than usual
>Indirectly wishing for people to roll completely for Ascendent or Kazuki
>Keep telling myself that this is in preparation for Ichinosuke's banner to buff him up as the new Meta
>Delay on Ichinosuke's banner when it should have been updated
>Oh well give it a few hours
>Suddenly EOS announcement.
>Find out everyone was fired 4 days before the announcement.
>Find out a week before everyone was fired that they said Tribe Nine underperformed
>Most likely they believed Tookyogames would go bankrupt and therefore would be a good idea to kill Tribe Nine
>Did not even give it a few months time to turn it around like other Gacha's had time to do.
>Fanbase turns on them, Gacha industry in a state of shock that something like that could even happen at all
>Japan covers it and despite the fact everyone agreed the EOS happened due to various issues with the Gacha Economy, Gameplay etc also mentions that it was premature to pull the plug early on such a project and destroys trust with userbase
>Tookyogames survives because The Hundred Line actually sold well.
If I am Akatsuki I would make a full game and sell it for 100$ or try to redo the whole thing as a reboot and make it more Gacha focused. Because their bet went against them.

>>1794355
Rereading this it makes me feel bad because what could have been but I am glad because Chapter 2 with what happens after death was a way worse way to end than Chapter 5. Also Saizo is barely in the stories at all.

Glad to see they finished it. This should be on the archive site.

https://automaton-media.com/en/news/top-20-japanese-game-companies-based-on-average-yearly-income-revealed-nintendo-ranks-third/
Akatsuki had the 5th highest average salaries among Japanese game companies.

>>1797861
56k a year. My god they are going to die if they can not get a hit beyond Dragon Ball Legends.

I really do hope the whole Stylized Action Anime Gacha thing can happen again. Tribe Nine was too good for this world.

Also does anyone have the videos of what Tribe Nine was going to be with the Development Team? Or what it originally was?

I'm still getting new phone conversations every day...

>>1799133
Can you give examples of the conversations?

https://x.com/neoneon_tribe/status/1951213818320695533
Kodaka, Shuhei Yamaguchi (the executive in Akatsuki that greenlit Tribe Nine I think), and Katsunori Suginaka made a doujin circle Neo Neon Tribe to continue Tribe Nine's story. It says they are sanctioned by Akatsuki so there shouldn't be any problems legally for them to do this even if they don't own the IP. I'm not sure what exactly is Katsunori Suginka's involvement in Tribe Nine though. I don't remember his name coming up before

>>1800815
https://x.com/kazkodaka/status/1951216534690603371

>>1800816
>>1800815
As long as this doesn't fuck with my refund I'll be happy to see the story moved along.

In the website's source

>>1800828
>you don't have to if you don't want to.jpg
what did they mean by this

>>1800815
https://www.gamespark.jp/article/2025/08/01/155666.html
According to the site "Circle members also include Shuhei Yamaguchi, a former producer at Akatsuki Games 『Tribe Nine』, and Katsutaka Suginaka, who was involved in creating stories such as story events and sub-events. " it also mentions Kodaka is looking for Translators right now. So it's not Tribe Over!

>>1800816
>Akatsuki Approved
Well now I am not mad at them anymore. Just allow Kodaka and crew to continue this in a Web Visual Novel format or something. I do not mind paying to help move this along and finish. Especially if it's in parts.

it has only tribegun

We are so Tribe Back!

>>1800858
>paying to help move this along
I feel like the only reason they can continue the story is because they aren't accepting money. If they start accepting money, Akatsuki probably has to step in because of intellectual property laws

https://youtu.be/R3J74oCKxto

Yes!!! We will continue onward! I do hope if fan reception is high enough as he keeps making this Akatsuki will develop it into a proper game.

>>1800869
I think so as well. This is most likely two things.
1. To create goodwill on what happened with Tribe Nine because they know Kaiju No.8 is going to die and they do not have anything else other than Dragon Ball to save them, when that money dries up then goodwill is over.
2. Kodaka made a deal in which they do not get any money, but most likely this also means if it finishes up it can then be readapted as a Game, or a Gacha when the time is right. Akatsuki might be able to consider asking Investors for another chance on Tribe Nine because the story is finished, scenarios are done, music is finished and basically all they would need to do is model the characters and kind of just make it into a game.

https://youtu.be/92iWFlvSxPc

Man I am so happy it's even continuing. YES!!! Hopefully more people are still following.

>>1800877
crazy that no one can even attempt this stage anymore, it's basically lost media

Well I mean this works, but I wonder what this will mean for the Gacha. It is EOS but can they at least allow it to be played offline and get to pay for the remaining characters? I am willing to put money in after this move.

>>1800886
It is sad, because Tsuruko had a tragic backstory told in this.

>>1800895
Luckily I did not get filtered. It was close though.

I am starting to think that there was going to be more to the next event than just Drones. It's very obvious this was being hinted as a Concert. I might actually play this game later today to check everything out.

>>1800909
Might have been a future event for when the trash tribe returns to neo chiyoda. The drones event is pretty much just the ninjas cleaning up the drones and finding out about Ojiro according to what they published on the site so I don't know how they can insert a concert in the middle

>>1800923
I think so as well. Or perhaps maybe the Concert happened and then the Drones invaded? It's just very weird because in the game there is tons of hints of future events and characters throughout.

Will be waiting to see how this goes.

Surely writing the story to completion for free isn't the extent of it, right? There's got to be more to this; do they plan to adapt the finished product in some way? Selling it as a VN or a completed Tribe Nine game continued from the gacha base would be nice. I just don't get the end goal here.

>>1800987
I don't think they can do anything with the IP commercially since it still belongs to Akatsuki. I want to believe that the three dudes who formed Neo Neon Tribe really just want to give closure to a project they worked on and the fans who followed it. It's really in line with that Yamaguchi guy's character from the shit he's doing on twitter, he gave a completely unrelated hachinai (his previous gacha project at Akatsuki) fan a wedding message because the fan asked. If nothing else, it's good PR for their studios since they have executives devoted to their projects

>>1800987
I think it's just finishing this to completion for now. Then most likely we will see where it goes. The only reason I see this happened was because Akatsuki knows this is just a bad blow to their PR in Japan, that they shut everything down early. So they are trying to build back goodwill for future Gacha projects by allowing Tribe Nine to be finished and give closure.

Maybe it will be an app? Sort of like something that will be updated every now and then?

>>1800997
Was Kodaka and his studio actually involved with the writing of the story? I know it reads as something made by Kodaka but I'm not sure. Even then, Tookyo should have no reason to see the project to completion because it's not their IP.

>>1800999
>Akatsuki knows this is just a bad blow to their PR
I find Tribe Nine's EOSing bizarre; why announce EOS so soon if you need to keep the servers online until the end of the year? Even if you're not making any money, at least try to safe face by updating the game with everything Chapter 3 related because that would give you another month or 2 in data to justify the EOS announcement, making it sting a little less. besides, all the work on Chapter 3 should have been done anyway.
>Then most likely we will see where it goes
I loved the mystery and all the things going on behind the scenes but I just cannot fathom working on someone else's IP unless there's some agreement in place behind the scenes that it will turn into a game or something once completed.

>>1801000
I'd pay for a game version of Tribe Nine that had paid chapters every 6 or so months. I'm sure removing the gacha elements and retention strategies would make the game better, but it is a risk. I'm willing to bet that trying to keep it alive as a game would have won a lot of good faith from the community, perhaps even sparking a renewed interest in the game akin to FFXIV and No Man's Sky.

>>1801017
Kodaka was involved in the scenario writing? and I think Tookyo has partial ownership or something because their logo shows up when you boot up the game and their listed right next to Akatsuki on the start up menu. The guy who wrote the story missions is apparently Katsunori Suginaka according to >>1800853

>>1801033
I'd say that Tookyo should have negotiated ownership of the game with Akatsuki but it did occur during a rough time for Tookyo. Not sure what they're doing but I'll look forward to it.
There's meant to be at least 1 chapter for every district/city, right? So over 24 chapters? Or is it planned to end after the 9 are beaten?

>>1801017
>I know it reads as something made by Kodaka
considering how atrocious 100 lines was, I bet he worked on the setting and premise for t9 and someone else took it from there

>>1801047
Gameplaywise, I think the original scope was one city map for each Numbers + the 24 city map for Zero. The other sixteen cities that didn't have a Numbers were only if the game successful enough. Storywise, I feel like you could easily write excuses to revisit old cities as another chapter like revisiting Neo Chiyoda after Yui Kamiki vs Ojiro or Minato after you meet all the Minato tribe characters

>>1801069
Didn't like 100L myself as the story came to a complete standstill after the prologue but you have to admit that the premise was interesting. Would Tribe Nine have shit the bed after a few more chapters? Almost certainly but the premise was great, thus hooking me in.
I'm still shocked that there was no one in the Tookyo room to tell him, "Just because you can make 100 endings doesn't mean you should."

>>1801076
>one city map for each Numbers + the 24 city map for Zero
I get that the 24 city thing is the number of districts in Tokyo but why open with there being 24 cities if the initial outline for 8/9 cities + the final chapter, whatever that entails? I know when I was playing Tribe Nine I didn't think that beating the 9 would lead to the end because I knew a over a dozen cities were unexplored. It felt like the kind of story that could be extended on the writers' whims. Curious to see how long they play make the story, and if all cities will be incorporated somehow.

>>1801017
>I find Tribe Nine's EOSing bizarre; why announce EOS so soon if you need to keep the servers online until the end of the year?
I am going to take a wild guess and say it's because Akatsuki Games feared Tookyogames was going to go bankrupt and that would lead to complicated issues with licensing if Tookyogames died and Akatsuki was still alive and cause Tribe Nine to die early. The Hundred Line sells so well that basically Kodaka does not need to worry much about Bankruptcy(but he still needs sells and merchandise sells obviously). Now that it's no longer an issue, Akatsuki Games basically allowed Kodaka to have the IP Permission to write and finish the story.
>Even if you're not making any money, at least try to safe face by updating the game with everything Chapter 3 related because that would give you another month or 2 in data to justify the EOS announcement, making it sting a little less. besides, all the work on Chapter 3 should have been done anyway.
See this is what I think as well but I am going to take a wild guess and say the nosedive was so bad, Akatsuki cut their losses rather than pushing through and trying to at least give the 6 months needed to give them a chance to come back. It was dumb to prematurely end Tribe Nine, and to assume Tookyogames would go under, and to basically just panic from investors. But at least they are trying to redeem themselves on it.

>>1801017
>I loved the mystery and all the things going on behind the scenes but I just cannot fathom working on someone else's IP unless there's some agreement in place behind the scenes that it will turn into a game or something once completed.
I am going to assume this is the case. Most likely it might be that if Neoneon Circle finishes everything and fleshes out the world more it can be easy for it to be a game or something because the story, music etc is finished all that is left is to basically put the pieces in place and create the world.
>I'd pay for a game version of Tribe Nine that had paid chapters every 6 or so months. I'm sure removing the gacha elements and retention strategies would make the game better, but it is a risk. I'm willing to bet that trying to keep it alive as a game would have won a lot of good faith from the community, perhaps even sparking a renewed interest in the game akin to FFXIV and No Man's Sky.

Same. I do hope there is a way we can support it, or some way we can keep it going to generate excitement so Akatsuki turns it into a Game as it keeps going. Because would it not be amazing to see Neoneon Circle make a great quality story, and then to hear it will be adapted into an Anime that then goes into a Game? That would be exciting.

>>1801086
>Would Tribe Nine have shit the bed after a few more chapters? Almost certainly but the premise was great, thus hooking me in.
I think the fact that the Characters are very likable and familiar with those who like Danganronpa including the Artist, Musician, while also having great writers behind it helped a lot. I do think it became very weird based on the premise that somehow when you die you come back but not as the same person you once were. Chapter 3 was absolutely amazing in that respect. Even in Chapter 5 I still wish to know more. But I do agree it was starting to get off the rails a bit. Which makes sense to get Kodaka to try and help finish the whole thing and to keep it more interesting and consistent.
>I'm still shocked that there was no one in the Tookyo room to tell him, "Just because you can make 100 endings doesn't mean you should
Honestly I agree. But I think he should have went into the Multiverse route. Not Stories within Stories.
>I know when I was playing Tribe Nine I didn't think that beating the 9 would lead to the end because I knew a over a dozen cities were unexplored. It felt like the kind of story that could be extended on the writers' whims. Curious to see how long they play make the story, and if all cities will be incorporated somehow.
I agree I felt the same, like why have 9 Tribes if there is 24 Cities? Sadly there is not much information even on Chapter 5 on what happens here. Which makes me interested in how it will happen this time around.

>>1801086
>why open with there being 24 cities
Possibly so they can bring in characters with different themes without committing to making an entirely new map. The maps in the game suprisingly referenced a lot of the city they're based on which means extra work for the dev team if they did decide to commit. It's also easier to leave the possibility open from the start then slowly close them off later on in the story if they decide not to go through with the extra cities

>>1801112
It sounds like the suits at Akatsuki were involved in the entire thing, causing it to fail; from removing all currency from the game, to shuttering it prematurely. Still rather shocking how the game fell off a cliff and never recovered when the changed the reward structure. Was it seen as a cheap ZZZ copy? Regardless, based on Kodaka's actions, it's clear that Tookyo games pitched this project but needed someone to fund it; it also explains why Akatsuki is willing to allow Kodaka and co. to work on it.

>>1801122
I can't imagine that they'd get funding to continue and complete Tribe Nine as it is, it makes more sense that they take the assets from T9 and make a VN, because it's Kodaka's bread and butter.

>>1801133
>the Characters are very likable
I thought they were okay, nothing special. I don't think I have a favourite based on the writing because I found it focused more on world building, rather than character development; we did see some character development creep in but it wasn't much. What happened to Q was both very interesting for the implication to the overall machinations of the overall story and infuriating because it reverted any character development Q had.
>I do think it became very weird based on the premise that somehow when you die you come back but not as the same person you once were.
Seems more central to the story than 100L but 100L had the same mystery regarding that but it didn't do too much with it. I do think it would play a big role but I am still extremely sceptical about it because I think that's where the nonsense will come in to ruin the setup.

>>1801138
I guess the story could continue after beating Zero to quell any rebellions or to fix the cities, kinda like what was meant to be happening to the first city from the last "event" we had. I would live liked to go fix and pick up the rubbish myself to improve the city but w/e that's in the past now.

I think the best way to support Kodaka is to buy 100L along with DLC and merchandise for 100L. It might help him for now.

This game was clearly meant to be a standard fucking release I don't know what clown at Akatsuki thought making it a gacha would be a good idea

>>1801207
>I think the best way to support Kodaka is to buy 100Ls DLC
100L was such a disappointment that I won't be doing that. I went into this expecting a weird and bizarre story that's gonna be typical Uchikoshi shit but by the end I didn't even care about the answers, I just stopped playing. I think the most I cared about was the answers to the person behind Mystery route, and I rolled my eyes at that nonsense. I'd still be willing to try whatever Kodaka puts out (gonna wait before buying this time, though).

>>1801217
>I don't know what clown at Akatsuki thought making it a gacha would be a good idea
I think the bigger issue was the clowns that decided to change the income from beta to launch. The person single-handedly doomed the game.

>>1800853
>it also mentions Kodaka is looking for Translators right now.
Bad news if they can't get the same translators that worked on the game.

>check tab
>44 replies
>is it fucking happening?
>it's kind of happening
Caught in the middle of glad Tribe Nine isn't dead forever but I don't know how to feel about its continuation in an assuredly lesser format.

Is it really okay to have hope now? Are we finally back?

>>1801280
I think right now we will need to wait what it looks like. But you are correct it is going to be a lesser format but they might surprise us.
>>1801288
We can continue now at least.

WE'RE SO BACK
HE SAVED THE GAME

>>1800886
>tfw this whole game is going to become Lost Media soon

>>1801218
Uchikoshi only wrote two routes and they're easily some of the worst parts of it.

>>1801234
The translators were pretty damn good, leads me to believe they were an in-house team because not even 100L was safe. The first ~20 days of the tutorial route had some blatant trashlator rewrites, but otherwise the rest of the game was done well enough.

>>1801288
at least we will have an ending now, that's more than the average EoS'd game could ever wish for

>>1801207
I'm still not buying 100L because the translation is abysmal dog shit.

>>1801684
So Kodaka is writing it now? And not the original writer who had penned the game up until this point?
Some real monkey paw shit right here.

>T9 lives somehow
GODaka

>>1801689
I think he has always had a hand in writing the script alongside the Producer. It's just most likely due to NDA he can not say it. Also Yamaguchi was the Executive Vice President of Akatsuki and co-creator of Tribe Nine. This makes it interesting, and I do wonder if this means they will be able to get something going now.

We are SO Tribe Alive!

WERE SO SAIZOBACK

>>1801929
Saizo saved OUR GAME! We can CONTINUE forever!

Also I think we are going to head our thread limit soon. So be ready for another BREAD in a few days or so.

a saizo spin off would recover all akatsuki loses

I'm surprised the thread is still somewhat active.

>>1802273
We're holding on to hope as best we can here, especially since EoS pretty much came out of nowhere.

>>1802429
Agreed. Even if it ends as a web story I am happy with the result because it's closure and the story and cast were really good.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF TSUKI IS A REAL HUMAN BEAN OR NOT

>>1802552
Same. I wish to know Tsuki's backstory and what her and Yo were like, what happened to Tsuki. Also to know if Shun is really Zero.

>>1801390
We need to rally up all the hackerGODS on that one Steam forum to reverse engineer it before that happens. We already have downloads for a lot of the prior beta builds but the more heads together the better. Right now it's more about bypassing the game's network encryption.

>>1802618
Can agree. I wish there was a way to tell Reddit and Steam to try and get the data to make an offline version just for fun and to simulate the PVP mode. I do not think it's possible we will get Tsuruko, Kazuki to be playable but it would be nice to see.

I'm just happy that it happened

>>1801719
Well Kodaka had some game called Death Comes True which I've never heard of and I don't know how the writing is in that, but all of his Danganronpa stuff and also Hundred Line are written very differently from Tribe Nine. If not for the shared artist I don't think people would even be making the connection.

Good to hear it's happening, will be waiting on the new developments.

>>1802672
Same. Just having a full story is a good thing.

>>1803226
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J9FJqSTeZI
This is probably why Akatsuki is trying to do a good thing by Tribe Nine, most likely because they know their original IP game is going to be their only hope to break into the overseas market. Kaiju No.8 is obviously going to fail, Tribe Nine failed due to internal dispute. So Project Akatsuki is going to be up next.

>>1803859
I feel the same. It's mostly females, but man why do the character designs feel like they are trying to aim for the Mihoyo audience? Is painfully obvious the Character designer is good but it's like corpo office was saying "No we need more Male designs and the animations need to be like ZZZ"

Also we need new Bread soon. Bump limit might have been reached.
