>>590665692goty.
>>590665692>reading is hard
I can't wait.
>dude lets copy fft>except the good parts>also remove jobs
I played the demo and it legit convinced me to dodge this game. The first few levels were more yammering on than actual gameplay, and the story is like as generic and generic fantasy can be
>>590665862It's literally like Tactic Ogre, not FFT
>>590665692Yes, it's an RPG.
>>590665692READ NIGGA, READ!!
>>590665692Autistic ADHD zoomer
>>590665692seriously. The demo was interesting, but goddamn there were maybe 6-7 fights and the other 5-6 hours of the game was just shitty GoT-tier writing. Glad I went with the jap subs, listening to this in the cringe english version would've been fucking torture
>>590665692read fast, bitch
>>590665862>>590655323obsessed.
>>590665862>removed jobsHell yeah, what did they replace it with? Even as a kid, it seemed so stupid to have a warrior have a character become a completely different person and lose most of his competence just because.
>>590665850play the trial user, it goes through chapter 3 and you can transfer your save directly into the main game. patrician taste, Anna best girl and an amazing fighter. Getting to attack twice in one turn is OP as fuck
algebraic equations
>>590665787When the reading gets in the middle of the gameplay as much as this game does it is.
>>590665850I too can not wait
>>590666197Just having a little fun
>>590665692>30 mins of gameplay>1.5 hrs of cutscenes>rinse and repeatholy shit...
>>590665882I hope one day a developer makes all their game's demo content and promotional materials pathetic and boring as fuck on purpose and then when you're 3 seconds into the full game you get a 95 minute long fully animated rape scene that you can't close out of
>>590665692I don't see the problem. If it's not what you want, then just skip out on it as it's clearly not for you. I personally enjoy something like that.
I turned the voice acting off and it made the game much better. There's too much fucking frontloaded exposition though, and I don't trust them to pull the story off.
>>590665692But you're playing an RPG, and those are literally all about words. JRPGs doubly so since unlike the best WRPGs they're on rails, and you're meant to get immersed in the existing world and characters instead of writing your own. I know Dragon Quest is actually more of a self insert deal, but it's still on rails. And that's ok, there's nothing wrong with that. I love on rails JRPGs because they're usually full of kino.
>>590666426yeah just shut the fuck up, ignore every aspect you dislike and consume. Only positive opinions are allowed on this inclusive board.
>>590666479SRPGs always have that though. Even disgaea
>>590666537I dont know man, i think "too many words" is gay. 4chan is like 80% words, so we should shut the site down.
>>590666152lay off the cocanine
>>590666152Streamers should stop trying to tell me what to do and embrace their role as clowns.
>>590666592disgaea at least have the decency of being both upfront and ironic about it, and having a ratio of gameplay vs cutscenes very, veery one sided towards gameplay.
>Be a cuck to the badguys or fight backWow what a hard nuanced choice.
>>590666152>use a mask that doesnt work because my politics says so no>get an experimental mrna vaccine where the vaccine adverse effects cannot be talked about or you're a nazino
Still don't know which lets you get cozy with Hyzante...
>>590666479just put it with jap voices, makes it much more bearable to listen to
>>590666323That's literally every SRPG ever. Zoom zoom, autistic retard. Can't wait until they remake Front Mission 3 to see threads about you ADHD failures complaining there's too much shitposting on the fake 4chins.
>>590665692What did you expect from the same team who made the boringfest known as Octopath Traveler?
>>590665692Based. WordsCHADS like me will get my fill and enjoy every bite.
>>590666982Serenoa always becomes a Saintly Seven by Chapter 13, Chapter 17 is when you decide to either ally with them in Roland's route or betray them in every other route.
square-sama... I KNEEL!
>>590667369Huh okay. Wasn't expecting that. Guess I'll do that one first.
>I wish FE had more political intrigue >WTF, why are there so many words?
Can you fugg chiggs in this game?
>>590667858The first fight in the game is literally you meeting your new wife.
>>590665692Westerns hate reading
>>590667858>chicks>posts some weird humanoid lizard?
>>590666680Unironically this. The time we spend typing and reading shitposts is time we could have spent playing games we enjoy (good luck finding one of those these days) or fucking bitches.
>>590667858you could always fuck Anna. All you have to do is ask
when i spend sixty dollars on a game, i get so excited just thinking about the parts where the talking heads with three frames of animation and annoying voice acting will waste my time with boring drek
SRPG kino is back on the menu.
>>590668213>dubfaggotryyou deserve it
Bros, it’s so good. You DID go to Aesfrost in the demo, right?
>>590666537Why is reading so hard for you?
>>590668343of course, it seemed like the more kino place even if the ranger trap dude doesn't seem like that great of an addition to my army
>>590668320>boring tripe but JAPANESE
>>590668475> even if the ranger trap dude doesn't seem like that great of an addition to my armyYeah, he doesn't seem like the strongest character in the world but I expect one of his later upgrades will increase damage against beasts, and that will definitely be useful in the future. Plus, I like his story.
>>590668387too much of something is always a bad thing.
>>590668662I went to aesfrost but I think ice mage guy sounds like a way better party member. I know you can get him later but it relies on alignment then so he's now missable for me.
Shouldn't you be jerking off to Elden Ring like every other normalfag?
>>590665692Serenoa's va makes me want to kermit
>>590669736>>590668320
>>590669736Have Kermit voice Serenoa
>>590668831Have you never read a book, because it's literally all text.
>>590669736Serenoa is a beautiful name, sounds like it's nordic or something
>>590669998This is a video game, not a book.Do you like infodumps?
FFT has plenty of things to improve on but, once again, a game comes along and fails spectacularly to even get close to it.
Is it true that Easy nets you Morality, Normal Liberty, and Hard Utility?
>>590665692Jesus fuck stop complaining and do what I do in RPGs. Skip the story. Skip the text. It's all bullshit just enjoy the gameplay.I've started doing that since persona 5I did that to FFXIVI did that to Xenogears last monthI did that to FF4,5,6 remakesI did that to trials of manaI'm doing that to earthboundI'm doing that to monarkAre you playing games to read a story or watch a movie?No you're here to play videogames with GAMEPLAY. Skip that shit.
>>590670389You're in a plane above us mere mortals
>>590670389story is usually the least important and interesting part of video gamessame for movies and books
>>590665787when i play a game i don't want to have to read shiti just want to get right into the action and have the gameplay teach itself to me
>>590670107It's a simulation RPG. These are literally half book by design.
>>590670389you're not wrong but using the gigachad pic shows that you're insecure and some part of you feels like you're missing out on those stories you're skipping so you're looking for validation
how is the gameplay though?
>>590670389Skipping the story sounds alien to me for a game where you'll get some characters kicked out by your own choices.
>>590670389Okay but why not play better games instead of the worst gameplay genre second to visual novels
>>590672037Turn based RPGs are fucking ludo. Anything that requires reflexes is monkey tier
>>590666229>>590666282Imagine not having a hacked switchJokes on you fags
>>590671734I just like posting him because it makes me smile.
So is this game going to deliver or is it going to be like how octopath was hyped up with the 8 different character paths but it ended up being shit
>>590673096This game will deliver 18 hours of dialog if that's what you mean.
>>590666213>it seemed so stupid to have a warrior have a character become a completely different person and lose most of his competence just because.That's the opposite of Final Fantasy Tactics. A veteran knight can become a Wizard, use Knight breaks, and either use a sword for combat or a shield for defense.
>>590672193I have 4 Switches. None are hacked.
anti shills are already working over time i see.
>>590672193You might be the guy to ask. I have a Switch with the right serial number to get hacked (got it maybe a month after release, after all), what all do I need to hack it? One of those jigs and a SD card is all, right? There are finally enough games coming out to warrant it.
>>590670389>skipping the story in the genre where story is literally all that mattersis this bait?How the fuck can you stomach the gameplay of games like Xenogears, FF, or Earthbound? It's absolutely braindead. You're better off looking for dungeon crawlers such as Etrian Odyssey. Games with actual depth behind the combat and where you're encouraged to come up with your own story and characterizations for the party members.
>>590665692Get rekt, brat
>>590670389Persona 5 has some of the shittest writing in gaming so it makes sense.
>>590666592falseflag. FFT, tactics Ogre, had maybe a handful of 2/3 minute scenes between battles. AT MOST. Dialogue in battle consists of 3 lines, maybe a response, on a characters turn. The gameplay was the focus, always was. RIP Job system.
>>590674635>Hating Xenogears gameplayStop.
>>590674541Not the OR but yeah pretty much. The jig is easy to find and cheap.One thing that I should mention however that I wasn't aware of before hacking mine, is that the Switch's hack is not permanent.Whenever you restart the console you'll have to reinject the payload to enter CFW which requires another device nearby like a computer or a smartphone for example.Not a deal breaker but I think it's good to know.
>>590666970>mask that doesnt workYeah, that's why doctors use in in the hospital, because they don't work, right?>experimental mrna vaccine Then get the other one, from the old technology if you are so afraid of a vaccine that was given to millions of people.
>>590665692brainlets ruining vidya
>>590675524Alright, make sure to hold onto that jig. Got it. Thanks for the heads up, user.
>>590675112Xenogears was so shallow the combat hardly had any reason to exist.
>>590665692>>590665787A lot of words in a game is only bad when the words are boring and stupid, like most JRPGs.

>>590676475never played a shitga game in my life outside sonic, which is terrible.cope and shit your pants
I feel the localization makes the problem more egregious, when you play with jap voices you'll notice they speak much more concisely but the localizers decided to add a bunch of posh fluff to everything. The same happens in FFXIV.
>>590676737>shikata ga nai lmao
>>590675524>>590674541Just get a jigloader. I got one for like $10 Pop it in, volume up power and you're hacked.
>>590665692I will now play your game.
>>590676737Japanese just tends to be a lot more terse than English, eg they will drop the subject of every fucking sentence.
>>590675524>tfw bought an SX OS a few months before AtmosphereA-at least I can use the dongle to boot the payload
>>590676737I think the dialogue is fine but they speak too slowly. It's weird
>>590666152Isn’t this the guy who gets paid millions of dollars to trick little kids into signing up for gambling sites?
Octopath was disappointing so I see no reason why triangle will be any different. They should just made an octopath sequel but good
>>590671006not the game's problemthe game wasnt made for you
>>590678389People will say that Live a Live is what you want, but that game is simply not very good.
>>590678389octopath was panned for no overarching story while this has one
Does it emulate well or do I need to dust off my Switch?
I hope there's a chapter that takes place on your wedding night with Frederica and you both get ambushed in an assassination attempt just before you have sex for the first time. Would be pure kino.
>>590665692Honestly, thank fuck. After the sparseness of meaningful dialogue in Octopath and absolutely fuck all for character interactions, this is a breath of fresh air.
>>590666413Based
>>590666949The utility route will probably suck desu.
>>590680638Utility route is cucked as fuck. Submit yourselves to the Muslims, fuck over your wife's people and you don't even get to become the Hierophant. Glenbrook will probably get colonized by Hyzante too.
>>590670082Pretty sure is Spanish or Latin. It’s the name of a plant found in North America.
>>590665692so is this game just a visual novel but with shitty SRPG stages scattered around? Because that's the impression I got from the demo.There's a series of games that did just that. It was called Utawarerumono, and if the writing in the demo is anything to go by, it sure as HELL is not gonna hold a candle to it.
Anyone else going for Roland's route first?
I really dislike the rotating of the map. Feels disorienting. The simulation before you fight is not as good as 3H and you can’t tell what enemies will attack which of your units.
>>590678775>the game wasnt made for youthen i should never have been made aware of it
>>590684053I’ll just do whatever route I ‘naturally’ get.
>>590686145You're a dumb son of a bitch.
>>590665692You did it! You broke Triangle Strategy down to it's bare essentials!
>>590684391>you can’t tell what enemies will attack which of your unitsWhat do you mean?
>>590684391>fire emblem nowadays straight up tells you what the enemy will do next turnlol
>>590684391>you can’t tell what enemies will attack which of your unitstraining wheels
>>590688652i dont want things i don't like clogging up my thinking spaceafter all the only way to enjoy life in general is have everything you dislike be completely absent from it
Anyone wanna tell me when it gets good story-wise? I just completed the first chapter and I literally want to die. I wish they at least showed the character portraits during dialogue (like in Trails in the Sky).
>>590665692I just spam through the text and don't talk to npc's in most of the games I play these days. Honestly feels like a better experience.
>>590665692
>>590689565Chapter 3. But frankly speaking it got too many fucking cutscenes for the gameplay it has. I like the story so I am not especially bothered by it, but I think a good number of people who bought this without playing the demo will be pissed.Also the english tl makes everyone sound like aggressive bitches compared to the jp version
>>590666152Small dick douche bag
I didn't look at anything past the announcement trailer, but having just started the game my first impressions are that this might be the ugliest game I've ever played. At least it's UE so someone will probably figure out how tone the post processing the fuck down, it probably looks fine underneath the 6000% TAA.
remember the retards that called links awakening remake ugly? the blind cucks are back kek.
>>590689334Then stop paying attention to every game.
>>590690852i will once games stop appearing
>>590690896Your problem then mate
>>590690431you can remove the blur effect on the menu
>>590690910nah fuck thatif game devs don't make games for me then they don't deserve to make games>but other people could like games you hate"""other people""" don't exist
>>590690431It could be turned off thankfully
>>590691162Based schizo
>>590690080I'm seriously considering changing to japanese. Sereo just sounds like a fucking dead kermit the frog, and I can't take it. Does it get better, or should I change to japanese?
>>590691276why the fuck aren't you playing in japanese anonthe japanese cast are great
>Find a copy on some rom site>Doesn't work with the base versionGonna hope the update fixes it.
>>590691313fuck, I wanted to give the english version a chance, but okay. I'm fluent in Japanese anyways.
Which should I be going for, Utility, Morality, or Liberty? All I care about is which one aligns me and gets me the sexiest bitches.
>>590691442>fluent in Japanesetips pls
>>590691579Also, should I try choosing the 3 types evenly, or focusing only on one of them?
>>590691579Jujubros… it’s over.
>>590691595I learned it properly in highschool. Getting a strong foundation/start is what I recommend most. If you have a shitty foundation, you'll completely suck
>>590691661>a strong foundation/start is what I recommend most.What's that
>>590691276I was talking about the text. I started with eng text and jap voice because reading english is faster and requires less mental energy but the incongruence between what they are speaking and what I am reading made me switch to all nip by chapter 3. It's especially bad with frederica, her english lines make her bitchy when she is more of self doubter in jp
>>590666152man i made it all the way through the pandemic straight into world war russia without a single fucking jab and i haven't worn a mask for the last 6 months. i fucking love seeing this faggots seethe having to cope that other people are more free than they are
>>590691778that's what I was afraid of. If there's too much of a disconnect between the english and japanese, it's annoying...
>>590691710he means watch animu
>>590691868that's the last phase: absorbing vocabulary and more nuanced speech through osmosis from watching animu.The first and most important phase is getting a strong foundation and learning the actual grammar of the language, as well as vital phrases/mannerisms.
>>590670389Why play roleplay games without the "roleplay"?
>>590665692Retard
>>590691868Naruhodo
>>590665946TO had jobs, fucking idiot.
>>590691153>>590691168I only see options for the vignetting and DoF. While turning off DoF does help visual clarity, it's not the main culprit.
>>590676737this also happens in FFXI and Bravely Default 2. It's a Japanese videogame, not medieval text
A-Are those words???? AIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE A BUTTON SAVE MEEEEE
>>590665692Is this connected to octopath or can I just jump in?
>>590693973Not connected, also different genre (SRPG)
>>590676239squaresoft did, anonit was too pure for this world
>>590666152Woah woah woah, is he attacking people that might be leftists? This goes against the narrative, blocked.

>>590670389agree. It might feel awkward first, like you're missing something but then after you get into it you realize you enjoy the games more (my experience).
>>590671734Yeah this, made me doubt him. I could never do that because the feeling of not getting the full experience would be too much.
>>590674795Persona 5 is just embarrassing and the game is 50% cutscenes.
>>590691276You should never play this games with english dub user, it's always terrible and sounds like amateurs doing voices for a cartoon.
>>590695379Ah yes, because the Japanese voice actors don't sound like cartoon characters.
>>590670389>JRPG "gameplay"At least SRPGs try to have a combat system.
