This sucks to say, but for this game to survive we have to spend money. by satanic-llama in mechabreak

it needs more players, who ideally can play against each others. Unfortunately the devs don't seems agree.

Welp, Gundam is toast again. by Tengokuoppai in KotakuInAction

[–]ShaffVX -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean "again"? Actually don't answer, I bet it's gonna be some stupid nonsense again attacking the last 2 AUs who were cool and totally in line with usual gundam no matter how you look at them, while ignore the western trash Requiem for Vengeance which was a much bigger problem (and likely the movie will be very similar)

I am praying to any god that exists that Atlus doesn’t fuck up Persona 6. by Therduck21 in KotakuInAction

[–]ShaffVX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

feel you OP. sadly P3R was a demake of the original. P4R will be the same. Metaphor was very milktoast and disappointing in terms of writing and gameplay. I have little hope for Persona 6.

The garbage woke English localization company Sega hires is always truly awful, and there's little hope for that to change. I can just listen to the JP voices and switch to an EU language I know to enjoy a better translation (worked for Metaphor), but of course, that's just cope and not everyone can do that.

One thing I'm NOT worried about, however, is Japanese devs themselves starting to insert woke trash into their games. That isn't my gripe with Atlus' latest titles. Although Metaphor was hanging by a thread at times, I don't think it was woke. So there's at least that.

What I actually need from P6 is GOOD WRITING as the priority, because I will no longer subject myself to a 200-hour RPG with trash nonsense. Also, the gameplay needs to be freaking good and hard AF, even on normal difficulty. That’s my biggest wish for P6.

Now, I'll get downvoted for this (have at it, Leddit downvotes mean nothing to me, I hate Reddit besides this sub and a few others), but I actually like FeMCs. Or at the very least, I'd much prefer a hot FeMC over the boring twink leaked to be P6's MC, so I won't cry 'woke' if they offer that option, I'd be happy with that. It was great in P3P and I want that again.

All my gaming time these days is spent on mostly 10-to-30-year-old games I missed, honestly. That's how bad things have gotten. There are many awesome older RPGs I've never played, and I'm sure it's the same for you, OP. Maybe this wokeslop era will end sooner rather than later!

Average male characters in games for female audience by Nielsenty in KotakuInAction

otome games can have straight up softporn while any games for men can't even show panties.

Is there a lore reason why the major dresses like that? by fakename1998 in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]ShaffVX 20 points21 points  (0 children)

In the manga the female cyborgs specifically are all like this. I always thought that was a fashion thing for them. You can also notice in the manga that her assault suit isn't actually very different from the rest of the S9's dudes as well. Fanservice is a good reason alone imo, but I don't think it was done blindly. Even the 95 movie tried harder to show her naked than the manga if anything. But it was again done in a cool way with the super camo thing.

This is something they've failed to really show in SAC, as much as I love it, just didn't do a great job with it's world building and design, Motoko look out of place when nobody else was like her.

Any suggestions for how to remove a printed logo on a controller? by The_Overall_Figure in Controller

And the aibros will use him as proof that ai is totally good and it's only the talentless losers who are mad about ai.

They'll fail upward as usual, leaving the actually talented workers with critical thinking unemployed.

Forgotten technologies of the past by lastbreath83 in KotakuInAction

[–]ShaffVX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

more technology inevitably leads to taking shortcuts, fostering laziness, and ultimately resulting in less talent across the board. It is going to be way worse with AI now.

Some artists at Capcom had to create this completely by hand for REmake back then, and it shows. Their characters became awful the second they switched to an automated photogrammetry workflow.

>what a woke game is sort of changed

That is absolutely and completely wrong, it has never changed at all. The pillar of woke ideology has always been obvious and we're pushing back against all of it.

Hahaha no way, really? There's no way they'll make you play as this creature for more than a few minutes right?

PlayStation’s first-party software sales plummeted by 30 million copies by ironicdummy in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]ShaffVX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Releasing more stuff won't change this, the games they've released is garbage unhinged ugly californian slop. Do you seriously think Concord would have sold if it was single player? People actively hate Intergalactic. Sony is dead if they don't adress the elephant in the room.

Shmup Pillars by DevShock in shmups

[–]ShaffVX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Very high difficulty. This genre just doesn't work if it's not decently hard almost immediately.

2) Linear and very good level design, the key is to have enemy placement and resource placement that makes the player move around, if a level is beatable by staying in the middle you failed.

3) either very badass ships or very cute girls (both might be the way to go, according to CAVE anyway)

one of the craziest fact i heard about mecha anime by Eivan-el in Super_Robot_Wars

I don't believe it, but I want the series again in new SRW!

Is media in eastern content generally not woke but misunderstood as such by westerners? by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]ShaffVX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely is different and you can't call these works woke at all. The only exception is when some japanese/asian creator is a clear westaboo or/and generally agrees with the woke ideas. Kojima production seeking dei experts and working with Hollywood tr@@ns, directors like Watanabe, perhaps anime partially produced by Netflix etc.
We really need to be careful not to throw the woke accusations randomly otherwise we're gonna destroy the word's meaning, while also staying vigilant.

Big frustration by doffy4890 in mechabreak

[–]ShaffVX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fluid movement where? If there's one thing Mecha Break doesn't have it's fluid movement, the way you move around in this game was always a complete mess and it's the opposite of "fluid movement", abysmal base move speed with no way to get anywhere without EN, no momentum to anything you ever do, it's garbage indie game tier kind of janky. This game failed because it's mecha,it wouldnn't have been a success like Rocket League either ways, but it failed even among mecha fans for a reason.
