Thread 12012457

Can /vr/ have a normal ape escape thread?

>>12012457 (OP)
Played solely for the mod

>>12012458
what mod

>>12012457 (OP)
Sure. I really liked the games even outside of how much I want to cum inside Yumi, Casi, Natalie, Aki and Monkey Pink.
My favorite was the first one as a kid but I lost interest in three pretty early. I should try it again some day.

>>12012457 (OP)
Tried Saru Get You Million Monkeys the other day, it's really fun.

>>12012457 (OP)
>lust-provoking image

Is ape escape 3 worth playing if I hated ape escape 1 with every fiber of my being?

>>12012616
Try posting this thread on /v/, see what happens. Guaranteed it hits the bump limit.

>>12012617
It depends WHY you hated it. If you didn't like catching monkeys, then yes. You'll obviously hate it. If you didn't like the PSX era "we're still figuring out how to do dual-stick controls" thing, then that's cleaned up a lot in 3.

Ape Escape 1 is the best platformer on the PS1 and Ape Escape 3 is the best platformer on the PS2

I don't know I remember this being a pretty solid port. I didn't really struggle with the controls at all and 100% it pretty easily.

I'm a sucker for Richard Horvitz so I liked the redone voice work in the US version.

Overall I prefer the aesthetic of the Ps1 version, but I think this did a good job of translating 2000s anime in the same way the original did with 90s era anime.
Never played 2 and 3 though. Did I miss out?

>>12012641
The second game is great. I didn't play much of the third one but what I got to play was also pretty great.

>>12012457 (OP)
UOOHH?

Im impressed

I didn't know Chicago was /vr/

>>12012634
>Ape Escape 3 is the best platformer on the PS2
True but that's not really a high bar lmao

I never did get around to playing the games, but I do quite appreciate Ayumi.

>>12012461
I have no idea specifically what he's referring to, but it should be fucking obvious what it would be based on context and information omitted.

Ape Escape is fukken great, 1 and 3 have the best music

You need to go back.

lol

>>12014116
Having seen how shit gets on /v/, I almost don't blame them for being triggerhappy on that point, lots of actual scum show up there in those threads.
Compare to infinitely more civilized /a/'s loli threads, where people can actually behave.

>>12014183
it's easy to make. just dump the texture using PCSX2, open it in MSPaint, and fill-dump the flesh tone they used for her leg. then put the texture back in the 'texture replacement' folder on pcsx2

>>12014152
Furry is pretty bad yeah, but I don't think it needs killing,

>>12014119
>>12014238
do you even see under her skirt in-game?

would be smarter to just do it for soul calibur 3 or dead or alive 2

lolicon shit is just too normalfag for me. nothing really arousing about it. i guess you have to have a smaller dick to really feel the fantasy.

>>12014253
I'm packing 7", and it's fun (and cute) to me.

>>12014267
how is fantasizing about raping little girls with a dick that will permanently sterilize them cute or fun?

>>12014280
Why can’t murricans tell reality from fiction?

>>12014247
very easily. whenever you make her sneak is gets on her hands and knees and the camera is aimed right up her skirt. she normally wears black cycle shorts to compensate.

>>12014280
You mean the thing that doesn't happen?

>>12014289
i can, that's why it's a fantasy and not a plan. i'm not a normalfag, i don't think you're a legit pedo or that people who watch incest porn want to fuck their sister or furries want to fuck dogs, i think you guys just lack self-awareness and have to cuteify your dark thoughts instead of embracing them.

>>12014295
i do. But i also have enough intelligence and empathy to NEVER EVER try to ruin the life of a little girl. That's fucking inhuman.

>>12014280
I don't fantasise about penetration.

>>12014289
why can't turdies go five minutes without making a discussion about America?

>>12012634
I feel like I'm the only one who likes 2

>>12014303
you are the only ones in all the world with that problem. That's why you are inundated with degenerates.

>>12014306
with what problem? the one you invented in your head so you'd have an excuse to talk about America?

>>12014308
>what problem.
your country is FULL of mentally ill people, man.
Just look at the furries.

>>12014305
2 is the only one I like.
I only had a demo for 1 as a kid, I loved that demo but that was it. Then I played it as an adult and the camera control just felt like ass.
3 I don't care about because the loli is jus too distracting after all the memes
But mostly I feel like Ape Escape is a one-and-done kinda franchise. You play one, you enjoy it, and then likely you will be good on the monkey catching.

>>12014313
>makes up more nonsense
honeybun, you're obsessed. seek help.

>>12014319
I mean, he's right. but to be fair, america has the most interesting mental ills

>>12012869
OP checking back in. No longer impressed, /v/ must've found us

Mods please...... I didn't know it would turn into this...

While on the subject that EVERYONE REALLY interests when playing the game, why always JUST Sayaka? Sure, the hot little girl in spats, obvious. But what about the other girls?
I always liked qt AI girl.
Would def use as AI avatar. Remake made her especially cute.

>>12014416
because Yumi is a player character.

>>12014416
>I always liked qt AI girl
probably my first vidya crush
>>12014428
ToT

>>12012630
Def the latter. The camera was atrocious in 1. I'll give 3 a shot.

>>12014416
Because Sayaka has a big fat ass.

>>12014280
How the fuck would it permanently sterilize someone? Nevermind that it's not something I'm even doing to anyone nor paying to have done, I don't give a fuck about the rights of cartoons, you faggot.

>>12014298
I do.

>>12014336
>For some of us it adds to the vanilla aspect and for others it is about corruption and violation.
Both are nice.

>>12014416
Good question. There are a lot of cute girls even if Sayaka is probably the cutest. For example the aunt in AE3 is the kind of milf that usually catches on with lewd artists and she has basically nothing.

>>12012641
It's a functional port for a system with only one stick, but I don't know why you'd choose it over the original now when there are so many twin stick portables you could play it on.

One thing I do like is that Specter is voiced by Dee Bradley Baker, Viewtiful Joe's VA.

>>12012457 (OP)
Does this series have voice acting? Is it dubbed? Does it have undubs?

>>12014896
Yes. Yes. No.

>>12014896
there's two dubs. one for NTSC regions and one for PAL. the NTSC dub is more professional but has a 4kids vibe, the PAL dub is more accurate to the original script but sounds like clunky MTL trash.

>>12014896
3 has an undub patched version I was playing on my PS2 a year ago. I don't know about 1 and 2 but they probably have it as well.

This thread convinced me to try the Ape Escape games, thanks anons!

>>12015024
have fun!

>>12014458
Proof?

>>12014759
I actually commissioned something of the aunt from kabeume like a year back for another anon
Good times

>>12015051
She got called fat once

Wait, fuck, have I been calling her Ayumi when her name is Sayaka?

>>12015308
She's called Yumi in the US release

>>12015142
imagine the smell

>>12015526
Sayaka smells good

>>12015542
does she fart

>>12015526
Probably like farts and sweat. She's an active girl.
>>12015550
Yeah

>>12015550
Sometimes.

>>12012457 (OP)
So are they apes or monkeys? They don’t have tails so they’re apes but the Japanese name is Saru (monkey) Getchu. Monkeys are primates and not apes.

>>12016919
I don't think Japanese makes the distinction, because they do have monkeys native to the islands but don't have apes (besides humans). I think they're genetically engineered generic 'monkeys' without a specific species. they're like a cross between macaques and chimps in design.

>>12016919
I thought asians were smart.

>>12016919
Nigga this is just some goofy cartoony shit, you're overthinking it. It's like how there are male cows with udders in barnyard. Or how the whole world in Cars does not make any sense

>>12014315
>3 I don't care about because the loli is jus too distracting after all the memes
this is one of the dumbest argument i've ever heard. anyway i also like the 2nd more because 3rd is too easy and 1st is a bit rough around the edges.

You are all pedophiles kill yourself

>>12018349
no :)

>>12018349
For the record, I just like the gameplay of catching monkeys

>>12018360
I like that but also the little girl

>>12018349
So if we are as normal as normal can be why would we?

Never played this series before.
Can I skip straight to the game with the sexy spats girl?

>>12018331
>the whole world in Cars does not make any sense
Elaborate, it's been ages since I saw that movie

>>12018782
I think he means the whole premise.
Who made the cars in the first place and all the other objects that require HANDS.
But at least they were well aware of that and ran with it, so instead of flies in that world there are tiny little winged VW Beetles. Cute.

>>12012507
I struggled with the guy inside the temple spamming missiles. Good fun.

>>12018760
you can, but ape escape 1 is a lot of fun too

>>12012457 (OP)
>ape escape
i read that as "rape escape", haha...

>>12019030
that implies she can escape

>>12014012
Share your secrets

>>12019089
see >>12014428
the issue is the texture for her underskirt area is mapped such that it's reused in several areas, so there's no way to actually give her panties. at best you can give her really short shorts.
For example, let's say you want to put a polka dot in the area of the texture that's supposed to be on her bum. it also gets placed halfway down her thigh, because that part of her leg model reuses the same texture. the 'centre' of the texture is on the outside of her left thigh, with it being stretched out from there. I experimented with it by drawing a big orange 2 just to see where everything went, and what happened is the 2 appeared normally on her left leg, and then stretches and distorts across her crotch and arse before rejoining mirrored on her right leg.

>>12019030

Is she surprised by the little her trying to catch that ape? I would be too, seeing a tiny me running around.

>>12019064
you misunderstood who is the rapee.

>>12019110
I accept the challenge. we shall see who rapes whom

>>12019103
Oh that's a bummer
Thanks for the explanation

>>12019145
even the boyshorts are better than the vanilla cycle shorts, at least.

>>12019174
Yeah, they're cute, good work on that

Thanks for reminding me of this franchise. Played the first and the third one many years ago.
I recall being impressed by 1 using both analog sticks on the Dualshock, that wasn't common at all on the first Playstation.
I enjoyed 3 but didn't play the ones that came after it for whatever reason. Are they any good, or only the original trilogy is worth playing nowadays?

>>12024131
2 is good, but 1 and 3 are the better games. The PSP remake of 1 is alright, but the controls are very different. Otherwise, there's really only the original trilogy to play.

Is this all your life and legacy amounted to? Thousands of your ancestors lived brutal, unforgiving lives and died terrible, bloody deaths just for the opportunity to sire similarly unfortunate souls with the same goals, and it all ended up resting on the shoulders of some genetic dead end retard who somehow feels unironically inspired by generic plain jane cartoon animu girls. No, you aren't inspired by classic works of antiquity, or the words of great men, or stirring stories of valor and bravery; you are inspired by fucking anime girls. If you don't kill yourself outright (which you should), I at least hope you will give meaningful consideration to the nature of what you've become, and strive to be better tomorrow.

They really are just unexceptional games barring the Y2K jungle soundtrack of the 1st and the novelty of the control scheme. With the spinoffs being any genre you can think of and the sequels never really iterating on the core gameplay just small differences, it's clear there was no real idea behind the series or where to take it. From Mario 64 you got Sunshine. While Mario controls somewhat similarly the objectives (cleaning) and mechanics (FLUDD and water system) completely change the game. Compare Sunshine to Galaxy and it's night and day. From Ape Escape you got 2 which is practically just HD Ape Escape 1, and 3 which adds the morphs which are kinda just added action fluff to an already simple and easy platformer. This is why you can't get "normal" Ape Escape threads because as a series it's mostly unremarkable so all that's left is waifufags and a small few just reminiscing.

>>12028449
>tendie seething and coping about sony games
Business as usual.

>>12028449
it's almost unbelievable that i'm reading a defense of sunshine over ape escape. what the fuck

>>12028456
I thought that was a pretty measured and fair opinion to share, but I can see how it would upset Ape Escape fans. Not sure why the discussion would be Nintendo versus Sony and not 3D platformer versus it's direct contemporary.
>>12028464
It's not a defense of Sunshine it's an example of how mixing up and iterating your gameplay will leave a more lasting impression than just having the same game with different gadgets.

>>12027495

A fate worse than death.

>>12027532
Nobody bears the pressure of their ancestors, and if their ancestors wished for their descendants to live worse, harder lives, free of any inane thought or consideration, perhaps they should have killed themselves.
Anon is free to wonder, however hopeless and pathetic he may be. The judgement of the dead matter little to the living. They are dead. He is not. His life is his own, not some dreg to cling to imagined ideals of another man's thoughts of another man's predecessors.
He should be better, but for himself, not for the long gone, and certainly not for you.

>>12032238
It has a couple decent generals and a torrent full of drawing books and video tutorials.

>>12028464
You have incurable console war AIDS if you read that post as a defense of Sunshine

>>12028449
Not OP but comparing Nintendo's flagship franchise to a AA title like AE isn't exactly fair. Most IPs specially in those console generations didn't change that much.

>>12033445
And when they changed, it wasn't always for the better.

I only played the one with true chop rocket, I think 3. It was really fun. I should play the other ones.

>>12033445
Well how about it's brothers on the same platform? Sly 1 was practically a more vertical Crash at points and Sly 2 completely expanded not only the level design but also the implementation of other characters with varying playstyles. Jak 1 being from Naughty Dog itself was obviously like Crash but opting for open areas instead of a linear path. Jak 2 completely changes not only the tone, but also the mission structure and moment to moment gameplay (some weird GTA+Ratchet hybrid). Yeah a lot of safe sequels were put out during the PS2 but most of these had a remarkably quick turnaround. There were 3 years between Ape Escape 2 and 3 not accounting for the litany of spinoff party games released between them. Crash basically had a new gimmick every release once it made the jump to PS2 and they were getting churned out almost yearly. The only thing Ape Escape could come up with in 3 years time is the morphs (which as I said before are really just side options to capturing apes. Seriously you could have puzzles requiring specific morphs, platforming requiring rapid switching between them etc.) and switching the general theme from globetrotting to tv+film?

>>12033565
Sly Cooper and Jak & Daxter came out on PS2. They didn't have to make the jump from the 32bits era (and J&D went to shit and died later).
Meanwhile Crash Bandicoot was sold and went to shit, Castlevania fell from grace brutally on PS2, many platforming franchises (E.g. Gex, Croc) died, pic related happened, etc.
The point is, what happened to Ape Escape was far from the norm. Besides, its publisher abandoned the IP so we'll never know if its developers could've evolved the formula successfully.

>>12033613
Another example. And yet I don't see anyone ragging on it on Klonoa threads.

>>12033613
Brave Fencer Musashi went to absolute shit.
Tomba also died btw.

>>12033613
Pandemonium died on PSX, Oddworld failed to make the jump successfully in the 7th gen and died.

>>12033613
Alundra also died.
Goemon went to shit and died.

>>12033613
Bomberman also went to shit and died, until it got revived on the fucking Switch.
See what I mean?

>>12033613
Also Banjo died, and then this happened.

>>12012457 (OP)
m(UoU)m

>>12033658
that banjo is nuts

>>12033613
I'm confused at the point here? I posited that Ape Escape not being able to have a "normal" thread (normal being assumed to mean a thread actually discussing the games and their merits) is partially because they're unexceptional past the first entry largely due to lacking refinement or meaningful iteration between games. I'm unsure of where exactly you're wanting to steer the conversation by listing these games and them having died. I'm not saying Ape Escape died because it didn't change, I'm saying there's hardly anything to talk about because what's there is lacking beyond aesthetics and later games really did it no favors by not improving on it's foundation meaningfully or even just throwing in a novel curveball to the gameplay loop. It's a conversational wasteland.

>>12033664
Indeed.
Loliphobes out.

>>12033679
>I'm confused at the point here?
A ton of franchises failed to make the jump to the 128bits and evolve in a successful way. AE was no exception, plus its publisher, Sony, stopped giving a shit about it (Along others like Parappa the Rapper btw) and instead put most of its chips on new IPs such as Sly Cooper, Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank.

>I posited that Ape Escape not being able to have a "normal" thread (normal being assumed to mean a thread actually discussing the games and their merits)
There isn't much to talk about because the franchise is dead and buried with ZERO CHANCE of coming back. Moreso after Sony canned its Japan Studios divisions (along with franchises like Gravity Rush).
There is simply nothing to speculate about, so all that remains are what most people are nostalgic for, which isn't much as several other better platformers exist.

>>12033679
>It's a conversational wasteland.
Which you're choosing to spend time in, for some reason.

>>12033709
I don't exactly disagree but I simply find the series' lacking concepts gameplay wise to also be a contributing factor in why discussion is so dry as there's more than a few dead series or even singular releases that get more, idk what word to choose here as I don't think engaging is what I'm looking for, discussion than the average Ape Escape thread. Usually narrative based games like MGS or Mother, but occasionally you'll get threads about miscellaneous beat 'em ups, shmups, Vanias where stages, enemies, items etc are talked about at length (as about much as you can for decades old games really). I'm not really trying to single them out as being singularly stale or unimaginative if I'm coming off that way.
>>12033724
Ok, I'll just stop talking about the games. Far be it anybody tries to do anything but Sayakapost for the umpteenth time.

>>12033843
>but I simply find the series' lacking concepts gameplay wise to also be a contributing factor in why discussion is so dry
I know, and I AGREE, but that doesn't mean you, me or anyone should in turn go to threads like this and rain on their parade. Let people enjoy whatever they can, specially when the franchise is dead.

>Usually narrative based games like MGS or Mother, but occasionally you'll get threads about miscellaneous beat 'em ups, shmups, Vanias where stages, enemies, items etc are talked about at length (as about much as you can for decades old games really).
Those are more complex games with a lot more topics to talk about. Ape Escape is a game franchise made for children about catching apes with a net. There wasn't much content or mechanics to discuss to begin with.

>>12033843
Ok.

I love spats!

>>12033679
Then do not enter Ape Escape threads at all, it really is that simple. No one thinks you're insightful or smart for shitting on a well liked franchise. You haven't tried talking about the games, you're here to tell me I shouldn't like a game because there isn't enough mechanical depth. You sound like a dipshit and you get defensive very quickly once you get called out for it.
