All people aren't retards?

...

They didn't use Denuvo.

Coming in at 26-30 USD for a niche weeb game is a bit high, had it come in at 15-20 i think it would have sold a lot better.

On a PC you can open your browser and watch porn, not like on a console where you're cucked by the shit browser. So people don't care about buying anime titties on fucking Steam.

-Niche game
-Barely any advertisement
-Barely known in the West
-3 year old port of a Vita game
-Lots of competition
-People are saving up for bug releases since its Summer
-You need to wait at least two weeks
Its still one game behind top sellers

What do you mean, only ?

That's alright for a digital-only release though.

...

Two biggest reasons are the 30$ price point (most weeb games launch at 15-20$ for the first week at least) and it being horribly out of date (Estival Versus has already been out in Japan for over a year and in the west for several months)

Had it been Estival it would have likely sold way better, but the sales will still probably spike once the price drops a bit. As of right now, ~20k sales in the opening days is pretty fucking strong for a Vita game ported to PC, and unlike console the sales will continue to steadily trickle in over the next year or two until Estival comes out.

Onechanbara, on the other hand…

TOP SHIGGY LAD

Why is that so funny goddamnit

Is that bad? How much did it sell on PS4/Vita?

Steam is SocJus central now, normalfags and pre-approved opinions only. Why would giant anime titties sell well?

$30 for an old weeb game that launches a fortnight before the mid-year Steam sale.

What went *right*?

...

I bought the Japanese version ages ago for the Vita, and it was cheaper too. The gameplay is overly simplified trash, so good on all those people who didn't fall for it.

Thats how much niche products sell most of the time
Are you new to the market or something?

all of this

and its on steam

It sold 120k its first week in Japan with the original release and was the 5th best selling game on Japan PSN in 2013.

So 20k+ sales on a PC port of a 3 year old vita game seems pretty decent.

...

Niche game that was originally made solely to showcase boobs on 3DSs 3D. On top of being late port.

It is a shame but really what did you expect, this have no appeal for broader audience.

On top of the fact it have nothing going for it on PC.
You want brawler, you will be able to find a better one.
You want fan service, you will be able to find something better looking.

Like I use Steam.

I already bought it ages ago for vita, and I don't buy 2 copies of stuff regardless of whether I like it or not.

What better looking fanservice games are there on PC?

It's garbage released on a platform where refunds are possible if you're quick enough.

But this is a game from the Vita, unless you are talking about the first game in the series.

not gonna vote hillary

The port was made by one Nip, not even joking.
I just hope to God its enough sales for them to port EDF 4.1.
steamdb.info/sub/81620/apps/

I wanna fug the snake

The problem is onechanbara really isnt that great, its got some nice assets but it plays like a poor DMC clone. I really hope EDF isnt contingent on it selling well.

not gnu/linux compatible

Nobody uses that. Literally nobody.

Fuck you couldn't have asked for brawlers I don't sit in jap shit much.
Lets just drop Skyrim bomb.
Also from what I have seen I would actually prefer to play Neptune over this and games that use 2D images in general. At least for me.
Tera, Black Desert or any korean MMO.


I might have been less in jap shit than expected.
Ok I have been mistaken about second one, never read on it and expected it fallowed step of first one.

But still it is niche product about heavy fanservice anime jokes. Not much people would enjoy it.


It is actually interesting.
How port turned out to be quality wise?

Post lewds and I'll go buy a copy right now

...

I can't speak for anyone other than myself, and my answer is that I just don't care. I don't see the appeal of the series, if I want to fap I don't need to spend $30 to do it, there's plenty of free content all over the internet to do it, including rule 34 of this series. Kunoichi trying to rip each others' clothes off doesn't get a flutter from my dick, I don't even care. The only SK character I thought was attractive is Hibari, and even then, it doesn't justify the sticker price.

I imagine that a lot of people also feel the same, if they're not into the themes and mechanics of the SR series, why would they want to plunk down some of their hard earned dollars for titty ninjas?

Either make a full on hentai game or just a good game, not some in-between hybrid which has neither.

If you write "sage and ignore" in the email field, you're not longer saging.

I think Ricky Stallguy.

Shh, don't spoil the surprise.

The first two games were on the 3DS, Estival and Shinovi verses were on the Sony consoles.
(checked)
This is just some faggot saying the same thing in every thread he can find

Nevermind, the guy is a troll and has been doing this in every thread on the main page.


Yeah I noticed it right after I refreshed the main page.

AY HOL UP

I SAW YOU DOING THE EXACT SAME THING IN THE HDN THREAD

WASSUP WITH THAT FAM

Retard with shit taste confirmed, glorious Murakumo master race reporting in.

Are her tits supposed to flop out of her breastplate or is it a bug?

Yours don't?

The tits are working as intended.

I don't have tits or a breastplate myself.

You're waifu is shit.

Fucking normalfags.

No one cares about her.
Unless she will put on the mask

Dude, it's a videogame.

And your "gf" is a picture.

...

Since when?

Nice.

Spike Chunsoft considers 20-30k a success for their DanganRonpa series, and while that definitely was made on a lesser budget than Senran Kagura, I don't think Senran Kagura has that much more of it to be honest.

Plus Steam Sales are where the majority of the cash is made, so relax, it will make it's money back, especially since the Vita already made it's money back and this is more of a bonus round for them anyway.

If it's still like this after Summer Sale, then you panic.

Renderiing is locked to 1080p, I think that speaks for itself.

It's like porting EYE on PS4 and expecting it to sell well.

What was the budget for this particular PC port, user? If any, considering there's basically no PC-exclusive options at all.

I'm pretty sure any disgusting weebs that cared (such as myself) just bit the bullet and bought a vita years ago. They have little incentive to buy it on PC other than to show support, it's way too niche to see a real modding community.

But it's actually fun

This. Either give me actual nudity (which is the ideal option) or don't tease me with just going close to it in the first place. Borderline porn has no place in this world.

And to be clear, I would be satisfied with just actual nudity. As in there doesn't even need to be explicit sex, just all the naughty bits visible. You know, nipples and vag. Otherwise, don't even go close to that direction in the first place. And this goes for all media, not just video games.


Yeah, I plan to wait for the Summer Sale. Though even that is by no means a guarantee, seems like Japanese games don't usually have the level of discount I hold out for. Plus, there's the whole borderline porn thing, which reduces the amount of money I'm willing to pay even further.

I really would like to support weeb games on Steam more, I just wish Steam got… better weeb games to support in the first place. If it's not cheap indie stuff (that I don't generally want that bad from any country) it's just what, ports of old Final Fantasy games? I didn't even like FFX in the first place, of course I don't want another PC version. Now a graphically enhanced port of FFIX, that'd be something. Otherwise, it's pretty much weeb games I want, weeb games on PC, pick one.

Also focusing on the asses a bit more would help too, I'm sure of it. Tits get old fast as a main focus.

Asses are for degenerates. There's a reason why niglets love big butts so much,

Why would I pay for stuff I want to masturbate to and endure shitty gameplay when all the lewd animations are on youtube?

the gameplay´s good tho

I'd buy it if I hadn't already bought Neptunia U.
That game has more lolis so I consider it superior

The gameplay is way more enjoyable than the brief lewdness, parts of the story is actually kinda interesting too, between all the airhead fanservice that is.

I bought it on the PS Vita years ago. PC gaming is a joke.

Yeah right, keep telling that yourself you degenerate perverts

remember there's a difference between liking asses and liking wide hips.
one's degeneracy and the other is beneficial for the baby's survival.

Speaking of jokes.

...

Wouldn't i prefer the fanservice over gameplay if i was a degenerate pervert? I literally told you i don't care for the fanservice, it is the main reason i don't own any of the Neptunia shit.

Nep's fanservice is greatly overstated.

Nep's everything is greatly overrated. I can't believe a fucking NISA game got so popular over here. It's had horrible localizations from DAY FUCKING ONE.

Cute girls aren't cute when NISA is involved.

Idea factory is localising the games themselves now after the backlash from the first NISA localisations

pcucks are cancer

Im sure everyones going to buy XCOM2 on consoles when it comes out
Just like Shadow Warrior :^)

They're just not good games.
They're fanservice bait with sub mediocre gameplay made entirely to appeal to weebs, not "i'm a weeb and i like jrpg" but "i'm a weeb and i'm not even good enough for jrpgs, i just like animu tits".

It's an incredibly niche audience, that 9 times out of 10 doesn't even buy or play video games and just shitposts on Holla Forums and /a/ all day.
I know there's this meme here that senran is a great series and everything, but the truth is, once you take off your biased webbvision glasses it's a really shitty series, it should come as no surprise to anyone that it's selling like shit on PC.

What's with all the goonposting in SK threads lately?

It's all of the board, not these threads in particular.

This isn't your safe space where all dissenting opinions are "goons".
If you want an hugbox go to reddit, retards.

/thread

Its Summer, its been like this on all of the board since June 2nd

...

...

...

now I know how a Bernie Sanders supporter feels

user pls. There are always normalfags who play nothing but sports and "THE NEXT AAA GAME" shitting on less popular ones for some strange feeling of superiority and bromance with their other fag-cult members. Just hide the ID and move on.

This is what i was thinking until i tried it, ended up finishing it, so… i guess you're wrong.

VN weeb shit is not something you'll ever see me play though.

Fuckoff Jewt

Ok, let me tell you a story.

A long time ago i was watching Dynasty Warriors videos, and they seemed like the shittiest thing on earth to me.
The animations were stiff, the gameplay seemed too simple, the graphics looked like fucking shit, the map looked plain and bare, and the dialogues sounded absolutely retarded.

But since i'm the kind of person that tries things before bashing them, i went out and got a DW game.
So i played it, then i played it some more, and i ended up becoming a musou addict because of the tons of content and replay value these games have, and all the characters you end up liking, and the various situations they find themselves in, it sucks you in and then gives you fanservice, both in the form of waifu bait, but also in the form of "here's this character that you like, here's an interesting situation where he interacts with this other character that you like" and so on.

Were my initial impressions wrong?
Not really, all my initial criticism was only validated by playing those games, the gameplay was too simple, the graphics were indeed shit, the dialogues were laughable and most of the characters were really vapid and two dimensional.
But i still liked the games, because it tickled my need for content and replay value in video games, the lasting appeal.

The point i'm trying to make is that you can like something, and at the same time admit that it's objectively pretty shitty.
You can like something that caters to YOU yet it's not good from an objective point of view.
Just because YOU personally like something it doesn't automatically make that thing good by association.

This is something a shit ton of people on Holla Forums just refuse to accept because they're insecure as fuck about themselves.
One can like Senran an be addicted to the games without thinking they're objectively good games, or being surprised when the rest of the world thinks they're shit and doesn't buy them, the two things aren't mutually exclusive.

I have no doubt this post is gonna get shitposted to death, but i'm just trying to give everyone a valuable lesson here that might help adjust their point of view on these things in the future.

no user YOU are the cancer

It's shit.
Steams shit.
Ur shit.

That's nice, i was just spouting hyperbole with the whole "you are wrong" thing but go ahead an write an essay.

I like video games, sorry.

You will be.

A game is made for enjoyment, if you enjoy it, then it has served its purpose successfully. How can you say it's a bad game then?

The same reason why a shit movie can be fun. It can have no plot, the effects can be terrible, etc. and it can still be fun to watch. If anything just to laugh at it. By your standards I should go around saying Castlevania Lords of Shadow is amazing because I was laughing my ass off the entire game because of how bad it was in every imaginable way.

What you're posting is the mentality of a 7 year old who thinks something is good just because he likes it. Someone who is too young to understand that a thing can have qualities that simply terrible no matter what perspective you look at, even if you enjoyed interacting with it. Or maybe you're autistic.

Because it's not build well objectively.
It's the same reason you can enjoy a B movie because you like specific aspects of it but admit that objectively it's not a good movie.

gee i dunno

I have revenue to support companies I like on the hobby I lovr and I can pirate, crack, backup and burn every non Denuvo game, Im good.

Autistic is judging something by its components, like on paper, instead of by the final result, the effect it caused on you. After some years you won't say "oh, the art direction of that game was superb", you will remember a game by how fun it was.


Analyzing things made for fun "objectively" (like that's possible anyway) is one of the things that fucked this hobby in the first place.

Autist confirmed. Fuck off faggot.

I bet you think fun is a buzzword user

Games are not like movies but thanks for showing me how much of a fucking retard you are by making that comparison

If a game and its gameplay are, at their core, fun, then the game has held up its end of the deal, nothing more nothing less, you can call it shit all you want, but that doesn't make it not fun


Autistic is judging something by its components, like on paper, instead of by the final result, the effect it caused on you. After some years you won't say "oh, the art direction of that game was superb", you will remember a game by how fun it was.

Fucking this, you don't need a completely analytical look at vidya, is it fun? Okay play it. is it not fun? Okay don't play it.

This mindset is the equvalent of plugging your ears and screaming criticism away


It's stupid, it shows a complete inability to separate yourself from the things you like.
Instead of simply admitting that something you like can probably be objectively not that great you shut the world out so your little bubble of perfection and "everything i like is amazing because only i matter" can't be touched by anyone outside it.
It's pretty damn childish and insecure.

Please state the definition of the word "buzzword". Compare it to the word "fun" when applied to reviewing a product. Come to your own conclusion. I already know you're not going to do it and just strawman some retarded bullshit instead, but that just proves that I'm right so feel free.
No shit sherlock, but that doesn't mean it doesn't apply. You are a fucking retard for thinking that you can just sweep it to the side and saying "NUH UH IT DOESNT WORK BECAUSE I SAY SO" instead of giving an actual example of why it doesn't work.
Autist confirmed. Fuck off faggot.

But you're doing the same thing you're claiming we are

I'm not saying its amazing, I'm saying its fun, and if you're not a faggot, thats all that should matter to you

you're really just splitting hairs here user

Summer really does bring interesting people

Called it. Autist confirmed. Fuck off faggot.

Perhaps reddit would be more suited for you, that way you can down vote all the meanies that have different opinions than yours, sorry but here you have to actually defend your views with reasonable shit or we're going to call you a faggot

Bon voyage Faggot

Fun is indeed a buzzword
Anyone can sell a product by saying its fun, and you can have fun with pretty much anything.

You can have fun playing a shitty 2 dollar game on XBLA with no depth and broken mechanics.

That doesnt make it good or of quality.

That doesnt make it good or of quality.

and I still haven't said that it does, holy shit user, can you read?

Autist confirmed. Fuck off faggot.

Maybe when it's had a couple of months to properly sample enough users, not a fucking week after release. Not that I actually expect the game to sell well, but relying on SteamSpy numbers for new releases is fucking retarded.

You seem pretty assmad user

...

You two keep talking about "good" games, separately of "fun" games, like a game can be good but not fun. That´s plainly wrong, because the whole purpose of game is to be enjoyed, or fun. Like the whole purpose of a knife is to cut; the blade can be made of excellent materials, with quality engravings on its handle and blade, if the knife doesn't cut, it's a bad knife, end of discussion.
Thinking you can analyze "objectively" whats basically a digital toy, not only makes you sound pretentious but also retarded.

First it was "but fun is not a buzzword"
Last was "go back to reddit im so triggered ;_;"
Now its "U-u-u-u MAD!!!!"

Come on guys lets all take a guess what the next buzzword/memetic phrase he uses will be. Since that's all he can do.

I don't like racing games. They're not fun. But I can see whether they have good mechanics/graphics/sound design/etc.

Proven wrong. Atustist spotted. Fuck off faggot.

so then you can see why someone else would find them fun? Not that they are objectively good?

Proven Wrong, retard spotted, fuck off fagot

I literally just said the opposite. Autist confirmed. Fuck off faggot.

wow neat. that's probably what a word-of-mouth sleeper looks like, interdasing.

Im running our of reaction images to show my disbelief at your retardation


hey there mister "lets look at this objectively" they're not fun to YOU


So you can see why other people enjoy them and have fun with them? like literally what I just said.

either that or you're implying people play a game soley for mechanics that they don't personally like, graphics and sound design

you are straight up retarded

You say it yourself then, but you still fail to understand that this is exactly what makes the game good, some assets may be of lesser quality, all for different reasons, some justifiable, some not. But the whole package delivered what is was meant to, which means the direction the game creators took was the correct one, the effort was put into the things what made it stand out more. You're acting like calling something good is subjective, but calling it bad isn't, as if taking a "guilty until proven wrong" kind of approach.

No. That's the opposite of what I said. Holy shit you really are autistic. I refuse to believe anyone is this bad at English unintentionally.

I guess I just don't like anime tiddies enough to enjoy this series. I wish they had a little more depth to the fighting system.

user then you are literally implying that


as I just said, again, you are straight up retarded, there is no other way to interpret your statement other than that.

Not knowing why people like a thing and seeing positive aspects of a thing are not related you fucking retard.

So you're telling me people who have fun with the game don't necessarily have to like the game for reasons that you aknowledge it CAN be fun for?

Im gunna go with what this user is saying, you're saying things can be only be subjectively good, and only objectively bad

They are not fun to you, or in your retarded terms, they are not good for you. Also, thinking you can judge with half a shadow of objectivity games of a genre you are not fan shows how pretentious you are. Please, fellate a shotgun.

What the fuck are you even trying to write? That's not how English works. No I don't understand why people like X game, but I can see Y part of it is well made.

Seriously you need to prove to me that you are not 5 years old at this point.

The people who play this are on PS4 I imagine? Sony has built a reputation for weeb console for over 20 years.

There are a few Japanese games that did really well on Steam but most kinda tanked.

...

...

Devil's advocate here user, I'm not saying it sold well, but Star Fox Zero had a TON of promotion all over the fucking place and even a digital only price drop and still only moved that much

SV is a 3 year old Vita port that got basically no promotion anywhere outside of niche gamer.

Said the guy who has no argument other than "you're wrong because I said so".

That's not how it works nigger, ever heard of supply and demand?

user this is a port of a game that already sold on the Vita years ago. Starfox was a new mainline title exclusive to the Wii U.

Comparing a main line nintendo product to a port of a niche weeb vita game. Good job there friend.

Now if we want to make this a fair comparison, Starfox Zero on its home platform sold 30k in first week, Senran Kagura Shinovi Vs sold 94,324 physical retail copies within its first week. Including Digital sales the total for the first week was 120,000 copies sold. Titty ninjas on a 'dead' platform manage to out sell Starfox Zero by 4 times.

every time someone makes a fucking OP with this, I'm gonna bumplock the thread. holy shit OP, stop using fucking templates

Said the faggot that keeps getting refuted and then re-arranging his argument to try and save face.

The problem with Onechanbara is that the port is terrible and it's more expensive than Senran Kagura.

I'm more upset about this one but whatever.

steamspy.com/app/251290

I wonder which cost more, the development of Starfox Zero, or porting Shinovi Versus to PC?

is steamspy 100% accurate? or is it like VGChartz

Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

...

Starfox Zero wasn't a main line Nintendo title and if you knew anything Starfox has become a fucking niche series after 64 and Adventures. Every game since Assault has only seen sub 75k sales. Starfox Zero is actually selling less than 64 3D. And Nintendo didn't do anything with the series for a decade. It's niche by most standards, especially when the arcade 3d scrolling shooter genre is relatively dead.

Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

I like how you say I'm strawmanning you, and yet in the same post try and do the same exact thing to me

Please consider suicide user

Not 100 percent but they get their info directly from Valve. It is accurate enough for devs to ask steamspy to remove their games.

archive.is/zsQE8

Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

damn, well that sucks. I hope D3 doesn't cancel EDF 4.1 for PC

user, notice how only me and 06cb01 are actually responding to you anymore?

no one else in this thread wants to deal with your autism

Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

Please user, continue. Not everyday I can see a dude embarrassing himself so hard for free.

If EDF has a decent price point and has a little advertisement it can probably sell well.

Ok niche Nintendo IP Vs Titty ninjas. Doesn't change the fact that it got outsold 4 to 1. You were comparing the sales of a PC port of a 3 yr old game to a game on its first release launch week. Compare like facts to like facts.

This is genuinely hilarious

I guess you don't own any mirrors.

Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

This is fun.

Don't give up next user, you could very well be the next >(128) I have hope in you

20K for a port isn't bad (assuming the porting cost is pretty cheap).

I think a lot of people assume it's all tits and no substance. Gameplay actually showed it was pretty decent:
youtube.com/watch?v=Swo756EYK5U

But this: kind of settles it.
Question is, did they still turn a profit, and did all their fan-base buy it?

But would you want this franchise to go mainstream? Every SJW reviewer out for the devs blog, every SJW generating bad PR?
The golden age of vidya was when everyone was playing their own niche titles and we shared stories and experiences.
Now everyone plays what AAA tells them. Everyone without taste anyway.

More please, i believe in you.

Depends on how long you are willing to run from being BTFO
Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

Fuck it user, I'll take your bait, this is too funny

im fairly certain we reached over (215)
unless you're talking about a different shitposter

Gee what a surprise. You really are fucking 5 years old aren't you?

(215) was the highest? must have missed that one, unless it was the xenoblade guy too

what argument user, you just keep posting that same baby talk in the hopes that someone will side with you

(215) was an irish poster complaining about piracy. Dunno who the cenoblade guy is.

(215) was an anti-piracy, xbone shill.

never give up

Because
A. The wii u is much more dead than the vita
B. Starfox doesn't sell itself on nothing but tits.

You do know that TitS sold it bulk it sales on GOG and 20K is great for a localization only, right?
XSEED is localizing Chapter 3 PC only for a reason

Yo if you find the musou gameplay in SK too simple you should try Onechanbara.

I thought it was going to be more musou shit but it's a legit cuhrazee game with a good amount of depth. It's shittons of fun but the characters aren't nearly as charming as the tiddy ninjas.

The port is basic and you can't turn down the graphics but it runs perfect on my GTX 650 Ti which is a kinda shitty card, I heard it has problems with AMD cards though.

mainly because it's a three year old vita game with the sequel already out on PS4. They should've ported both.

Odds are that they were testing the waters before jumping to the sequel. So far the numbers are pretty acceptable even if nothing more, the PS4 one would surely do better, but not if they ported both at the same time.

Probably using the older game to see how many people are interested.

Will 20K be enough for them to break PS4 exclusivity and port to PC?

Being in one Nintendo Direct is not a ton of promotion user.

Why would I buy some weeb softcore porn game?

I just don't find the girls attractive, their proportions are absolutely cartoonishly wrong.

I WILL DESTROY YOU

I fucking love the SK games and I agree. They are more cute than sexy.

woops, my bad. I thought we were in the onechanbara z2 thread

You fucking WHAT mate?

So you agree the game flopped then?

I actually agree. Proportion and body shape are pretty important to me.

everyone has at least one device that can conveniently browse porn sites, people use consoles to play games. SKEV is a good game, regardless of your excuses.


it probably would sell better than senran kagura did on pc

Please kill yourself, shit anime liker

explain, i see no issues besides the balloon tits and animu sameface

WEW LADDEH

...

It's really just the ballon tits m, the same face doesn't even bother me much. Their chests are just two antigravity hemispheres stapled there. If I was gonna play it I would probably have to stick to the loli just so I don't have to see it. also some of the dialogue is kinda cringe from the screenshots I have seen here alone

well, for a start, people on consoles buy games

say that to my face

nerd

ftfy

Not sure what argument you're trying to make, but 20k for something like Senran Kagura is way more impressive than 30k for a well known brand such as Starfox, the latter is laughable in fact.

I don't know if you realize this, but fun is subjective. What may be fun for you may not be fun for the other. Dark Messiah of Might and Magic is my favourite game of all time, moreso than GOTY's like Doom and Deus Ex, but I acknowledge its mistakes and have written an entire .txt on things Dark Messiah does wrong.
A game can have objective flaws such as bugs, design flaws, poor level design, an unfitting artstyle, and so on. It depends on the person how much someone is willing to overlook those individual flaws and enjoy the game, while to someone else those flaws might make or break the game. Sometimes one aspect of a game was so executed well that you were willing to overlook all the other problems, but you should be able to understand that not everyone will overlook them.

Nobody (sane) thought Fallout 4 was a good game, not even the Game Awards. It's just a mindless non-RPG designed to be as convenient and satisfying to the player as possible. A casual might love Fallout 4, while someone with standards will think it's absolute garbage and a poor example of an RPG. I genuinely enjoyed Drakengard, but I admit that its combat was fuck-awful and there are many, MANY other better examples of musou combat out there.

The problem with just categorizing games between 'I liked it' and 'I didn't like it' is that it stifles criticism and doesn't allow for a whole lot of room for future improvement. When a developer asks you what he should do to make the sequel better and you only told him the things you liked, he wouldn't have a lot to go on. What's the point of discussions at all if someone said he thought a game was fun, you thought it wasn't, and then both of you enter a shitflinging contest trying to convince eachother why the game is(n't) fun?

It's not available on PS4, Estival is, but not Shinovi

steamspy.com/app/72850
:^)

10 million retards with awful taste, what a surprise, they all congregate on the pc

steamspy.com/app/48700

I know fun is subjective, I said there is no way to objectively analyze a game, as whole. Of course you can point flaws of game like bugs, but even if you write 3 pages of flaws for game, at the end of the day the game "worked" on you, because it made you have fun. Of course it can't work on everyone, that's why we have so many different games, because different people have different ways to have fun. If a game could be made to be objectively good in a way that every single human being could enjoy it over every other game then you would be right.

Also, if a dev asks you, you would recommend them to add more fun features and correct mistakes on the design that affect your enjoyment of the game, not "add this because doom is goty and has it". Also discussion it's not limited as you say, we can talk about things we found or couldn't found fun, or suggest ways to enjoy the game to someone who couldn't, to see if then the game "works" on him. Kinda like:
1: man, mgs wasn't fun at all, I went full rambo shooting everyone
2: try doing a stealth run killing the less possible, I found it more fun that way

its all lies, anons!

It's too bad there isn't a Linux version. I bought it regardless, but if there was a Linux client I'd have bought 2-3 more copies to gift to freetard acquaintances.

Just wait for E3

I hope that they try to make the maps larger and allow you to use more units if they announce a PC port of 2 and 3.

but who said people stopped buying senran kagura yet? it's getting consistent userbase growth so far

It's a shallow game that isn't worth anyone's time. Price tag was insane. Should be 5$ or freeware

Is there a source for that?
I mean, it's plausible, haven't seen it on a lot of steam sales and it's a lot harder to get on the front page there. I buy XSEED games on gog.

which one? 2020?

If they port the game, i doubt they will modify anything.
Would be nice to have a map editor and upload challenges, but its all wishful thinking.

Why the fuck would they waste money on that? They're a business, not a charity for tech socialists who worship jewish pedophiles.

No source, just speculation, TitS was pushed heavily on GOG.
Much more than on Steam

Just like Night Dive rereleases


This one
They've barely released anything this year due to the restructure.
If it isnt during E3 it should be soon after.

really? i dont remember that.
you are not fooling me, user!

This

What about legs though? Don't forget that there are legmen out there who enjoy a bit of thigh

In the front page when it was released and everytime it went on sale nigger.

Probably one major issue is that the game looks like shit-smeared ass. The up-scaling is abysmal. I mean, I loved playing the game on Vita, but the texture up-scaling looks absolutely horrendous. At least it runs 60FPS and has AA now, but given how shitty the textures still look, that's not much of a comfort.

If there were an HD mod, or if they had improved the textures, maybe it would've done better.

Of course, there was only a PSVita version to work with, in this instance, since Shinovi Versus never released to PS3/PS4; it was Vita-excusive.

With Estival Versus however, they can port the PS4 version instead of the Vita version, meaning higher quality textures. Unless they totally get lazy/jew out and port the Vita version, then that would just be shitty. Because the Vita version of Estival doesn't look much better than Shinovi did.


If you go into SK expecting only fap bait, I mean you'll get the fair share of it, but the characters are worth staying for. Their back-stories, for the most part, are DEEPESTLORE-tier, which I find enjoyable, in an ironic sense. Plus it has plenty of slapstick humor in cutscenes. It's certainly not a game for everyone, but I would imagine that the people who are interested by it would actually enjoy it, going in expecting just fap bait and getting something actually enjoyable and then fapping after they play

Good god that is some shit-tier taste


She's a big girl

If you don't like ass, you're simply underage.

This. Boobs are for babies that need more milk.

QUADS OF TRUTH

Hm.

What does this say about us?

The game/story is essentially just an anime with some button mashing thrown in anyway.
Only really enjoyable if you're a fan of the genre.
I could understand why some anons wouldn't like it, since there's that crowd of people here that doesn't like anime/flat out despises it.

I still hope for EV on PC, even though it's looking like we may not get it.
I don't have a console, and I'm not really willing to buy one for this game.

Your taste is trash. Curves are fine and desirable. Distended flesh is not.

but poop comes from that.

You're quite right, I don't know what I was thinking posting that one. Have some better butts

I would have bought, but my computer is too shitty to run it.

Couldn't be more pleased. It's a terrible port, and Steam can eat a dick.

There's a good chance it sold 40k~50k, plus you are forgetting it's going to keep selling in the future.

Focus on promoting the series and buying the 3rd instead.

Really? How shitty are we talking exactly, this truly doesn't require a lot.

I did my part 3 times. Physical US and EU versions on Vita and on PC. Gotta finish it at least once.
Bought Oneechanbara too, but it's a drop in the ocean.

Oh yeah I'll do my part.

TitS deserves 500k sales.

I'll also buy CS2.

Depending on the size of the team who made this that's pretty nice. Especially since this is just a port.

Anons are too used to seeing millions of copies sold for shitty AAA games with lots of hype and advertising from big teams/companies where huge figures are the only thing that cover their costs.

For smaller teams selling this much is a job well done.
Check what 26 x 20,000 is.
If the team has 30 people or less they just each walked away with a nice sum of cash for what's maybe a month spent porting.

I'd fucking kill for the game I'm making to sell even 1000. I could extremely lessen the financial burdens of my family with that

Its an HP Envy with 6 GB Ram and an Intel Core i5 processor. Unless the system requirements are a lie and I could get away with just using this thing.

Circumstance won't allow a desktop at this point in time (no room).

...

I think he's calling you a dog, user.

Do we have any decent nude mods already?

not really because people are still trying to get better texture quality since anything outside of transformation scenes sees a huge drop

You could probably run it at some definition of playable framerate. The minimum specifies a Nvidia GTS 450, which is a $130 budget GPU from 5 years ago. Modern iGPU should be able to match that easily. Can always pirate it to find out for sure.

If i could get Gedosato to hook properly i'd be all over it, i refuse to use garbage like uMod, some people are already working on it but the results are not that great for whatever reason.

What'd you expect from the walking sim machine?

i have it hook it hooking properly. this is a pic of the mod i did with it at 2K resolution. can probably make it look a lot better if i double the size

That sucks. I hope with time we can get some nice quality titties like they had in the DoA modding scene.

I trust in the modders autism.

This pink is not really the best color for her nipple with that skin tone.

Shit image fam.

speaking of which did you know someone is working on actual destructible costumes that work better than the console ones and can actually break from getting hit and not just from losing a round?

If you want lewds of your waifus then post it yourself, nigga!

Maybe I will.

The numbers for both this and Onechanbara actually are pretty good for their usual sales at release in nipland.

They have always been extremely niche low budget games with really small fanbases (that I always thought they deserved more sales).

Senran Kagura also benefited of the aggressive marketing and shilling that Marvelous took over the years, and xseed actually tried to create awareness for the series on western markets (and the recent pc port). D3 just dropped the game on steam without previous notice, not even in japanese sites.

i wonder how the mouse would control for a class like fencer. alot of the weapons are "Heavy" and the way they simulate that is there is a lag in the acceleration of the direction of the analog sticks.

seems like it would be very hard to pull off with the mouse.

unless they do away with that control entirely which would make the fencer extremely OP. unless they were to nerf his weapons.

Senran reached 20k FAR faster than TitS SC and still on the first page of the best sellers, for a vita "port" with barely any improvement besides stable fps that is quite good.

>shiggi
heres a webm for you.


thank you for posting ryobi. my favorite girl.

Facial animation is disgusting and ruins it

It's not the latest game in the franchise.

You fucking niggers can't be pleased, go buy $60 Ubisoft games then, at lest i did my part to support non sjw games

not bad, but it's hard to self-insert when jerking off to a POV-anything when there's no cumshot for me to time my ejaculation to. Marie is pretty nice too

Since i've seen it (or something very similar) before i assume you didn't make it, but just in case:

At least throw some bloom on it to hide the crushed colors if you can't figure out the proper tone balance and lighting appropriate for the scene.

This. First week blowout sales really only matter for AAA titles that have huge marketing budgets, and furthermore are an artifact of when the primary sales vector were brick-and-mortar stores that had to quickly clear physical inventory taking up valuable shelf space. Niche digital download titles with no marketing depend more on slow growth and long-term sales.

Nigger thats ingame, how do you think games like Project Reality, Battlefield (vehicles) and Simulators work?
Theres a limit on how fast you can move the sights, changing the sensibility would only make you need to move less on the axis with the mouse, but the ingame speed would be the same.
If anything, a mouse was made for this.

Japanese games rarely ever go on sale on steam. ONLY ony MAJOR sales and for games. It's not something you see often. Well aleast from my experience. I'm not talking -10% off either.

It says there's only a few thousand users on the board, you mongoloid

so i tried upping textures to 4K using gedesato but all the textures turned black in game. RIP high-res mods until someone finds out a way to get around it. as far as i know the same thing happens if you extract/repack the .cat files and do the same thing

It's shit fam, so it sold like shit. Now if only the rest of the weeb trash on steam would do the same like nep nep games.

...

So, they ported only the Vita one or the 3DS games as well?

I didn't know it was ON Steam.

I'll probably get it later.

...

The Vita one


Shinovi isnt on the PS4 nigger

Well, that fucking sucks. I wanted to play the DS ones on PC. I already have them in my CFW 3DS, but the framerate is terrible. I wonder if you ca fix it in N3DS.

Well, there is your fucking problem right there, fucking geniuses.

use Luma3DS CFW and the CPU patches in the config menu
the framerate for Burst basically triples, while Deep Crimson actually maintains full speed during gameplay

It works in O3DS as well? I'm figuring only N3DS.

Yeah, forcing n3DS mode only works on n3DS, for reasons that should be obvious.

Never bothered with the vita, gave senrans a shot and enjoyed it quite a bit. Could have been more challenging I can't think of many light hearted titties that also provided the difficulty I'm accustomed to.

I would buy other senran titles if they came to PC.

These sales are fine for a niche title that hasn't had a major sale yet. The price point is high and a large part of the PC player base doesn't buy games that cost more than $20 in general. Plus absolutely no promotion whatsoever.

Had it launched at 50% off like the Neptunia series began with on its Steam debut there would have been higher numbers, but they wouldn't have made the money they got from the higher price point. This is smarter in the long run, as the game already made back its localization investment eons ago when it was released for Vita.

HOLD THE PHONE

The DLC turns people off. People don't even look at what the DLC is, they just see this long ass list of paid for shit and then don't want any of it.

Good for them too. This game is charging for DLC that came FREE on consoles.

I was one of them. The base price is already pushing it but I was mildly interested because of the launch sale.

Then I saw
>all FREE DLC on console is paid
combined with the port itself being a pile of garbage, I doubt I'll ever buy it, regardless of the price

What are you talking about?

Several of the costumes were free DLC on console. All of those are priced on Steam because fuck you give us money, goyim.

Doesn't help that the base price of the PC version is ten fucking dollars higher than the PS4 version for no reason other than greed.

Somebody give me the first week steam sales for Akiba's Trip. That's probably the best metric.

It's fun, but too easy. It's a casual brawler game, if I had to give it a title.

RE: sales, I guess it's a genre the west has never really had much of, particularly on PC, particularly recently (meaning new generation PC gamers aren't aware of it), it doesn't look that great for a PC title, there's no marketing at all for it (in fairness, hard to do) and PC gamers have never really celebrated anime style titles, in my experience.

I'd say it was consistent with sales of other Japanese anime styled exported pop culture at a guess.
I'd also guess they've probably just gone above the cost of doing the port.

Ah well, I paid full price and am enjoying it. I've done my part.

When did this happen!?

Oh christ, those fucking dubs. I missed nothing. This is awful.

What generation i5? It runs 60FPS on Intel HD4000, and can probably run on Intel HD3000.

Like a year ago? No one modded it.

About a year ago.

Personally, I never buy from steam. Correction, I never make purchases from steam cause there is nothing to buy, just rent.
To buy usually was meant to be connected to ownership and I plan to keep it that way.

You probably already know this, but push right on the mission select screen to play on Hard mode.

steamspy.com/app/333980

Akihabara.

Is there a way to get Jap VA? Has it been censored or anything like that? I missed the entire release, somehow.


Sure, but in the absence of a donation link straight to the developer, this is sort of your only option if you want to play the game and indicate that you want more PC ports of their titles.
Sure, you can buy the original game and pirate the PC version, but that doesn't drive market pressure for more PC ports in future.


As Ryona says, hurt me more!
It's better though; I was steamrolling bosses in under 30 seconds in easy mode. The fastest attacking characters still destroy opponents effortlessly, though.


I've been there, it's great.

I can only see sales after one year. What was its first week of sales?

They probably still profitted from it, and will sell at least 20k more on the next steam sale.

This. Everyone is waiting for the summer sale. Was just a terrible time to release.

I just turned Japanese voices on and never looked back

I'd say it's a raw port, but not worse so than other titles like Killer is Dead or Just Cause 2.
The default key mapping and not having the camera follow the mouse (without drag) is by far and away the worst parts.

Oh, so you can?
Well, that's just fine then.

Any news on whether it's censored?

Eh lad, it's slightly better than the KiD port for sure, but it's way worse than JC2 port.

It has all the things in, sleeping/bath with the little sister an all.

Vita, actually
It runs on integrated graphics, it has native borderless fullscreen window and you can rebind controls for both keyboard and gamepad. The biggest flaw it has that it can only run up to 60fps.

Than you don't bite. Vidya is going to shit cause the jew is making you feel guilty for not making a purchase. Think about that for a sec.
Also for a tid bit of thought. Why even purchase games past 2010 at latest? Use that money to buy used games from other places. Hell there are better games pre-gen 7.

I just finished playing Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver on my psone. It reminded me what good writing and voice acting can do. We ain't gonna get that in current gen. Pisses me off now that U4 and tlou gets praise and those games are shit compared to Soul Reaver.

But I genuinely want to support the developer for making a game I enjoyed and for porting it to PC, because I am genuinely enjoying SK:SV, and it's nice to pretend that we're not in a dystopian future where videogames were ruined for the foreseeable future.

For what it's worth, I actually have a Vita, and I like it, but it has nip rhythm games on it for me to play when travelling and I don't play it while at home.

Does anyone have that music video posted in a recent webm thread? I was a fool and forgot to save the glorious Rin/Daidoji dancing tits.

Jesus Christ, get a controller you turbofaggot.


user, I'm so sorry you had such a limited draw distance. The Dreamcast had way better draw distances. Otherwise, all LoK games are pretty awesome. Shame nothing we've gotten recently is nearly as interesting.

...

user. All you are doing is making a deal with the devil. You want to support the devs, the devil wants sheckles and doesn't care how he gets it. Your "purchase" is no different than answering a loaded question. Every purchase just confirms to them that no matter the obstacles you are gullible enough to buy. So the less risk the store needs to take, the better.

Around 20K

...

Yeah, they went full kike, and theyll probably due it to EDF 4.1 with the Mission Packs.

Well gee, then it looks like Senran did fine to me.

user. I dusted out my psone. Had nothing to do with console preferences. If real estate at home wasn't so limited right now I'd easily purchase Gamecube and dreamcast. As well as the 1st xbox.

I mean why can't videogames be made for free. nobody should be able to make a job of it. that's just silly. selling videogames was a mistake :^)

It was actually more like 18K nearing 19by a couple humdred if I remember correctly.

I never said you needed a controller to be good, moron. But the game was designed around a controller set up, why wouldn't you use that?

Please stop, /scurv/ keeps it to themselves.

Because I'm getting A rank in hard mode with M+KB?
What does a controller even bring to the table at that point?

because m+kb works fine and you can remap controls. the fuck is would i need a controller for? I need that shit for DMC not this

Because it removes your complaints about the camera and can be reused for other games for which you might have similar complaints. And you can use it for emulating older games instead of a keyboard. My point about not owning a controller was less specific to this game and more specific to all games.

Point isn't about games being free poor dumb user. It's about realizing devs now are more shit than ever before. So there are barely any devs worth supporting even worth supporting. Even more so if steam exclusive. Heaven fucking forbid they sell at their own site. Stockpile older generation consoles and games user. You'll do yourself a favor by playing games that are actually good and using money that won't go to devs/publishers
these days.

yea ill just host my game on my own website and hope people find out about it. if you hate videogames nowadays why not go to /vr/?

...

...

HONK HONK

Why are vaginiggers so fucking stupid?

Not was I was expecting.

So I heard that the PC port wasn't as good as the original, is that true?

Only thing I've heard of is a hair bug so likely not since it comes with the DLC.

Meant is likely better

They messed up the internal resolution, it isn't actually rendered at 1080, but beyond that i'm not sure what you are referring to, i'll take playing on a proper monitor over a handheld any day so that alone makes it the superior version to me.
