Why aren't there any Persona clones? It takes fucking years for a new Persona game to come out so there's free money to make one for those who likes these kind of games. Is the social links system patented or something?
12 posts omitted.

There's a game called demonschool that does a similar school life/relationship thing to persona but it's a tactics rpg and the sprite aesthetics look closer to p1/p2 than the other games in the series, but according the the devs they never played persona and the similarities are just a coincidence. It's not out yet though (and got delayed because of silksong)

>I want to fully exploit the very very slight implication or interpretation that the persona 3 protagonist is sociopathic and "fakes" personalities through his personas to build his social links,
That's basically what its like to be a subject of neoliberal ideology. The ideal entrepreneurial subject is when you have like three part time jobs ("gigs") who instrumentalizes people for their rational self interest

These two I've seen compared to Persona in the past, never played them though, I think Conception has stuff like social links

yeah i want a persona game where the protagonist is like a hellish herbalife distributor, you get it

There was an interesting point in time after Tokimeki Memorial got huge in Japan and every developer wanted to mash random genres with dating sims
The most interesting one to me is Rival Schools. A Capcom fighting game in the Street Fighter universe(Sakura appears in it). We got it in English, but in Japan it came with a second disc where you can make your own character who you can use in the fighting sections, go through a life/dating sim, grow closer to another character and they would fight with you against others.

It's mostly a fighting game bu if you know Japanese maybe that can scratch your Persona itch.

With the amount of shill threads about Stellar Blade I kept seeing on 4chan /v/ saying it was a "decent action game" I ended up buying it along with some other games for my brother's birthday last year (at great expense as it's a modern video game and all). He never touched it so I finally gave the demo a go myself to see if it was worth the hype.

It was a Sekiro-like. and not even that great a one. It almost seems like it was hyped to shit because it had attractive girls in skintight suits and almost only because of that. I had more fun with Devil's Third of all games.

It got hyped solely due to culture war shit, they convinced themselves every leftist was freaking out about it because it has some big titted robot girl(which of course is something every leftist hates o algo) and thought that there was a massive conspiracy to make it woke and gay because a few of the outfits added extra pixels or some shit
when rightoid neckbeards got together to make their own "real" game awards, this got nominated and voted for top spots, and chuds still lose their shit if you admit it was just mid as fuck
Eve is fucking hot though

there's nothing wrong with liking big titty anime girl slop, but this reactionary retard from an old friend group of mine ten years ago told me to buy this game and I did, the Double D edition, and it was just some mindless hack and slash with the only appeal being titties
maybe I didn't give it a second chance

Does Sseth count as a chud?

a cool chud?

>>45695
I got this one too
Its funny because this was the game with the most complex gameplay and it sold like shit. People really just like this series for the tits
Also a rant, every character has the same body model so Daidoji never had abs in game. It had me seething

>>45698
He's definetly a chud who leans deeply in the right and all chuds are cringe and gay and will one day die, but he's very cheeky and tee hee about it while others like razorfist will scream their opinions in the middle of a review unprompted. There are chuds that are easier to hate out there, and I like some of the shit he talks about like Amazing Cultivation Simulator
Haven't watched him in years though

The conundrum of using a slower board



 

Some say that the golden age of gaming was the 80s, 90s or 2000s but I say that the real golden age of gaming was the 2010s during the RPGMaker boom. Sure, it was 2D but it wasn't monetized to fuck with P2W battle pass bullshit or paying $80 (Not counting DLC) for a game you don't even own and can literally be taken from you at any time.

Nostalgia is reactionary

They still make those

They are yet to make a single good game. There was never a golden age and it's unlikely to ever happen.

Persona would be good if it didn't have the most libcuck politics imaginable and didn't appeal to the lowest common denominator.
But at least the girls are hot lol.
>>43998
Untrue, a large majority of the Japanese audience that bought Persona 5 were female.
https://personacentral.com/persona-magazine-survey-results/
It absolutely would sell, Atlus is just predominantly ran by old fart Japanese businessmen.
Pokemon is the most successful IP of all time and it added a female protagonist in Gen 2. Hell, I'd even go far as to say that Pokemon's longevity as a brand is due to it being a fairly gender neutral IP.

>>44734
>a large majority
my bad, I should have said nearly half.
still, 43.5% is pretty insane for a series that makes a shit ton of "haha the girl can't cook" jokes.

I think a big chunk of mainling SMT's fandom in Japan is women in their 30's too, and Persona was considered the younger and more male series
I think a selectable female protag would fit mainline even more since half the games are about a random ass normie going through wastelands

It took me a while to realize why raid content and PvP in wow isn’t fun, and these reasons extend to why PvP isn’t fun in other mmos including the supposedly good ones like RuneScape. The problem is that there’s very little room for reactivity and reactive play in these games.
For starters, stat scaling is really bad. Blizzard keeps attaching percents and stackable elements not just into player progression but also enemy progression too. Why this is worse than linear progression is that it removes predictability from progression because stats can be multiplied and stacked on top of each other with effects, potions, auras, and more. This creates a lot of easy openings gameplay wise to casual one shotting and that becomes apparent in legendary and mythic plus raids where the “raid” becomes a dozen man sized dance ritual where even one failure in the plan leads to immediate squad wipes. That isn’t fun, it’s stressful. It’s even worse in PvP where retail combat has gotten so saturated with stackable effects and procs that it’s functionally dead.
I don’t want to be reading stat spreads and constantly reconfiguring build over relatively minor meta tweaks. It hasn’t gone better in the newest expansion.

I'm only bumping cuz I accidentally bumped off your thread off page 1 after bumping other threads, and this board is slow so people will forget this thread without giving it a chance :)
never played an MMO in my life

Could they have just picked a theme and stuck with it? This feels like if you asked an AI to make a popular AAA video game concept with no further instructions.

>Still a pretty good
No gacha is good.
>Depends what planet they go to in a given episode
The only "fantasy" Star Trek entertained was the possible existence of psychic powers, which people thought was legitimate back when it was made.
>It's still there though, but I get you mean how it's blended.
People call Jedi "space wizards," but they're not casting fireball or whatever. The Force is basically magic, but it's a very subtle form of magic compared to how magic is portrayed in fantasy.

In Dune, the only thing that is potentially mystical is prescience, which Frank Herbert never really gives any kind of "scientific" explanation for. I would agree that the other powers are kind of fantastical, but Herbert at least tries to give them some kind of at least materialist explanation and tries to make it explicit that they're not magic.

>>45383
I just watched someone play this game. They got mounted on horse while equipping some kind of AK. It was the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

>>45383
>>45679
Most media is basically one type of genre or another. Most forms of "genre blending" subordinates all the other genres they might be blending in to one central genre. One example might be Star Wars, where elements of things like fantasy and westerns are blended in, but they are subordinated to the central sci-fi theme. Star Wars is a sci-fi media franchise with influences from other genres. Contrarywise, Warcraft is a media series which has some sci-fi influences in it, but these influences are very much subordinated to the fantasy theme.

With Highguard, there is no central genre. Sci-fi, fantasy, superheroes and the modern military shooter exist equally and in stark contrast to each other, so it feels like a weird thematic Frankenstein with parts stitched together haphazardly in a way that doesn't blend.

So the incredibly dumb absurdity that is AK-47 cavalry.

>>It's fantasy
>>Except it's also sci-fi

Isn't that over half of JRPG's?

I hate the Anti-Woke gamer-bro culture

At least Anti-Woke alpha males like Andrew Tate are at least somewhat muscular but these Gamers are all fat slobs, people like Asmongold have no right to talks about masculinity. And their entire political views are based on what will make video games better, that is bourgeois as fuck. Though I’m starting to wonder how much longer this movement will last because they seem to be at odds with Christian nationalists because Anti-Woke gamer are usually Atheists and also Pro-Gooning.

I've been seeing people call Alien Earth "woke" and the main character a "Mary Sue" and I have to wonder how much of it is just that these stupid people don't have any other vocabulary to express their criticisms.

Nah that's how live action slop and AAA ganes market themselve:
>get youtuber to complain it's cringe and woke
>chuds hate watch, pretend they see what's woke about it so they can complain for clout.
>contrarians force themselves to sit through it so they can own the chuds, it's mid and overall enjoyable.
or:
>get youtuber to claim it's based and anti-woke
>chuds force themselves to sit through it even if it's bad so they can be based too, or lie and say they did. They pretend to agree with the youtuber and make up shit to prove it's anti-woke.
>contrarians hate watch, it's mid and they end up overall enjoying it.
The former is more common, but the later is effective too, that's what the Sun Wukong soulslike did. Overall decent game, got nothing to do with chudshit other than one "dev" that didn't actually contribute and just took credit for other devs work. Made their whole marketing about how based and anti-woke it is, now it's recognized as mid-overall good with high SEO and people barely remember.

Since these posts were made, the Vice President of the United $nakkkes of Amerikkka has retweeted Assmold
By the time these posts were made, it was indeed already known that a HUGE chunk of the roach's twitch stream views were botted. His popularity is fake and forced, but this also means that he's being forced by powerful baby eaters like the Heritage Foundation and JD Vance
so both of you are right



 

Do you play fg's? What are your favorites? I'm grinding SF6 currently. I'm still shit, slowly getting better. Overall I appreciate the genre, because it's a rare case of 1v1 multiplayer experience, I never liked team games where everyone is just blaming the other players.

I was just thinking how there should be more mecha fighting games
I know there's Cyberbots though I never touched that game



 

So does anyone know why exactly every Phantasy Star related forum is full of AI bullshit now? I swear, at first I thought it was just the subreddit (because of course it would), but other places like the pscave forums have AI art bullshit plastered everywhere, and even searching for youtube remixes leads me to AI music.
I'd talk about the irony of so much AI garbage being made by the community, when Phantasy Star 2 especially is so anti-AI, but it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Like is everyone who plays these now just utterly, creatively bankrupt?
…Later, ace!

noticing a lot of "retro" game stuff on youtube, facebook, etc. tends to fall into this trap of just pumping out AI slop (be it through remixes, goonbait, video thumbnails, etc.) I think in part it's the same thought process of "this makes me happy just cause it exists/reminds me of better times" that also creates things like fanart, fangames, remakes, challenge runs, etc. (and if the audience doesn't care about quality, they'll surely click your shitty Suno-genned city pop remixes), partly also that the lower technological/financial requirement for say, playing Mega Man X on an emulator means you reach plenty of people that don't really care about having anti-AI sentiment, partly also that it's very rare to find anyone that cares about games beyond immediate gratification or nostalgia value and will also write or make interesting stuff from them. Also, after 20-30 years, i imagine the "novelty" of genning slop makes them feel like they're sparking light on a thing that is otherwise dead, lol.

I only go on imageboards(bad)
>>45661
and I only watch youtubers who I already know pre-AI(good)
It's the sloppiest of gamer tubers who adopted AI shit
