Does a game having cute anime girls influence your purchasing decision?
Yes, I was thinking of getting tales of Beseria because of that cute girl.
>>382416807
Yes it does. If I see them I dont buy it.
>>382416893
Which one?
>>382416913
Obviously Velvet
>>382416913
I don't know her name she has black hair though
>>382416929
Literally the only reason the thought of getting it came up in my mind. Good thing I know that I don't like the gameplay in tales games.
>>382416807
I'd like to say no but I bought Recettear for that exact reason
It grabs my attention, for sure.
It can be done good and badly, the lolis in Star Ocean have always been the most annoying, grating and game ruining shits.
Nep doesn't really do it for me, most of the cast is just kind of annoying to me and Fairy Fencer does the Gameplay part better butNoire is cute,.
For fighting games it's definitely a plus tho, I tend to mostly play cute girls. Nu-13, Elphelt and Athena are all fantastic and I would be maining Orie if Akatstuki wasn't so fucking rad.
>>382416807
Sometimes. Anime style is preferred but sometimes I buy non-anime stuff. And I dont buy every single anime game either because no budget or the games may not be good like Berseria.
>>382416807
Yes. It's a sign that devs actually put some effort in the graphics instead of having amateur pixelshit or flip assets.
>>382416807
I want to play a JRPG with cute anime girls and engaging gameplay (strategic boss battles, no random/filler mindless fights) on my PC. Light JRPGs are tactical JRPGs are both OK. What are my options? I normally emulate 4th and 5th generation games but I'm in dire need of cute anime girls.
>>382416807
It can influence it but only so much. I'll never buy a game for cute girls.
After buying the first Nep game I won't fall for that shit again.
I don't understand how its even possible to make an RPG so poor.
>>382416807
Not at all. I mean, yeah, sure, I'm a guy, I like tits, ass and pussy as much as the next guy but I don't let that influence the purchase of a product that in the end don't give me actual tits, ass or puss to put my dick in.
That's like saying "Does a game having REALLY delicious looking food influence your purchasing decision?"
Of course not, because I still can't touch or smell or eat it. I can just look at it like some hungry motherfucker, in the meantime the gameplay isn't enhanced by either virtual tits or virtual food.
>>382417875
>anime girl
>effort
Nigga there is no artstyle more overused in today's media than the modern anime artstyle.
>>382418050
Kamidori
You even get to have sex with those girls. It's even available in English.
>>382416807
No. Effeminate males however ruin fucking. everything.
I wan't big, manly, muscular men with my cute girls.
>>382418054
I like turn-based rpgs with movement.
>>382418050
bunny black
>>382416807
Yes. Cute anime girls will make me smile even if everything else is shit.
>>382416807
I don't really care if it has them or doesn't has them, but I do care if they put manjawed females and etcetera in the game.
That's a no buy.
>>382418131
I've heard of that before, guess I could try it.
Is it more like Fire Emblem in that you face certain obstacles from level design and utilize resources, or more like Disgaea in that the focus is mostly on training characters and micro operations are less important?
>>382418069
I mean, creating a decent looking anime stuff requires more skill than your average pixelated games.
>>382416807
Yes. It's why I bought the Neptunia gamesNo regrets
Also, while not anime related, 2B was the reason I bought NieR: AutomataBest decision I ever made
>>382416893
I actually skipped because Velvet is ugly.
>>382416807
Yes it does if the game has sexual content. A game without sexual content with cute girls is always shit.
>>382416807
It's half the reason I buy anything these days, honestly.
>>382417870
Is Berseria considered bad or something? I only just picked it up during the sale and haven't gotten very far yet, but I'm liking pretty much everything I've seen so far except the dungeon designs and the running back and forth during the first (I assume) Northgand visit. Neither of those are big enough issues to really affect my enjoyment in a big way.
>>382416807
I've fought my dick over buying games with little girls that vulgarly display their flawless thighs and slender legs adorned with laces and ridiculously short skirts.
Skullgirls was the only game where my dick won.
>>382418537
I dunno nigger some Neptunia fanart can be super fapworthy even if it's not 18+ strictly speaking.
>>382418416
Is neptunia VII or whatever a standalone game?
>>382418538
It's a big step up from Zestiria.
>>382416807
It doesn't hurt its chances of me buying it, it might even help in catching my attention. But it can't be the only thing the game has going for it.
>>382418643
That's fucked but it's a diamond head so who cares.
>>382418643
Are those parasites or some nasty fungal growth shit?
>>382418878
Ticks
>>382418643
My two dogs once ran away and must have ran through a piece of tropical hell, because I ended up pulling more than 30 ticks from them
>>382418898
Holy fuck those ticks are enormous.
>>382418643
Poor thing
>>382418619
Megadimension Neptunia VII? Yeah it's standalone. I don't know if it's any good though since I haven't started yet
>>382416807
Since it'll get my attention, maybe it's half-true.
I still won't touch it if the game play like shit.
>>382419086
They're all standalones, as writing a real sequel would be too much for Compile Shit.
>>382416907
/Thread
>>382418619
You should play the Rebirth trilogy before VII.
>>382419249
VII is just the only one I have access to atm. My PC is utter shit, although I did buy the first rebirth in a gog sale. I do have a PS3, but I haven't heard good things from even fans about the original games
>>382419249
No you shouldn't.
RB 1 does nothing to the mainline series.
RB 2 only sets the "canon" dimension and the side characters of future games.
RB 3 is the actual good Nep game and has nothing to do with VII other than the fact that Neps now understand they can travel through dimensions.
>>382419351
If your PC is shit then you won't be able to even run VII at 60FPS.
The most optimized game is RB3
>>382416807
Of course, especially if I get to do cute things
>>382419441
and what cute game would this be?
>>382419430
Oh, I have a PS4 too, which is where I'd buy it. No vita either. I do plan to get a better PC eventually so I might just wait
>>382419441
Did she make mochi from scratch?
>>382419523
If you are going to play on the PS4 then yeah, play VII first and then play cyberdimension.
>>382419498
Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin
>>382416807
Yes.
>>382419430
All of the games are horrible optimized. It doesn't matter if I run it vanilla or force SSAA and 16x anisotropic filtering, it'll always stutter at 59fps for some unknown reason.
>>382418050
Etrian Odyssey though it debatedly has filler
Random encounters are fully capable of killing you though so calling them filler doesn't seem fair
>>382419441
2018 needs to hurry up and get here
>>382419690
I ran it on Max settings with zero problems, you're doing something wrong. Are you on amd?
>>382419670
Thanks
>>382416807
The more cute the girls are, the worse the gameplay is.
It's hard to find a balance between both.
Good game with cute girls > good game > just a game with no substance other than cute girls.
not a difficult concept
Bought Ateliers for the cute girls.
Stay for gameplay.
>want to buy anime games
>dont want normie friends to see my weebness
Suffering.
>>382420175
Why do you have normie friends?
>>382420175
Same here except I just don't give a fuck about what they have to say anymore.
If it's that bad just get an alt account and play on that.
Noire has no friends
>>382420175
Are you 12?
>>382416807
As a straight man Anime is not cute, so it's bizarre depiction of females as prepubescent boys with facial deformities does not arouse my interest in a product.
>>382416807
As a weeb.
No. Never.
What gets me is the setting, gameplay, and atmosphere.
>>382419523
If you're going to skip the rebirths then you could watch the anime to get a feel for the characters. It takes place in an alternate dimension and it spoils rebirth 3 but if you're not going to play it anyway then it's better than nothing.
>>382420175
How is Tales even Weeaboo? My friends got me to buy Estival Versus so we can get a gorup of 4 to play multiplayer against each other.
>>382416807
>Cute anime girls
No.
>Sexy anime women
Yes.
>>382416807
No, but it's nice when it's a good game with cute girls.
Normalfags fuck off my board
>>382419441
I'm hyped for this.
Yes.
>>382422583
>in English
What's the point?
>>382416807
Yes
>>382422725
Positively?
>>382418391
>creating a DECENT X requires more skill than YOUR AVERAGE Y
Yeah, of course. The problem is that some people will always discredit even the most well-made and aesthetically pleasing pixel art games for being pixel art, but they don't hold anime artstyle to the same standard.
There is an oversaturation for pixel art, but modern anime artstyle is so overused that's it's not even comparable. There's not much more creative innovation involved to get the look for an anime artstyle medium down. Bodily and facial proportions are very often extremely similar, for example. Meanwhile in pixel art, making the main character model 5 pixels larger will result in a completely different composition of pixels. Some have faces, some don't. Some don't have legs, some do, some are animated, some aren't.
There are other ways in which anime displays originality and creativity, no question about it. But if someone asks you to make an anime character, a lot of it is a no-brainer, especially the entire anatomy.
>>382422583
With Nep and Senran, everything is voiced and nobody is forcing you to pick the English audio.
If your non-native Japanese is advanced enough to fully comprehend the mountains of text in an imported Trails game, then congrats. You should feel accomplished.
>>382423781
>If your non-native Japanese is advanced enough to fully comprehend the mountains of text in an imported Trails game, then congrats. You should feel accomplished.
You sure? Those are video games for teenagers. I feel more accomplished for reading 100 years old poetry and literary theory books about it.
>>382422789
Nep
>>382424186
>tfw you hate Neptune as a character outside of HDD but she looks cute enough to compensate for her annoying personalityNoire is better
>>382424493
You hate Neptune as a character but you think Noire is better? Are you for fucking real right now?
>>382424493
Except Noire is confirmed for having rancid shit-breath.
Yes. Not only is simply looking at cute girls pleasant, seeing them interact in cute ways is also enjoyable. The latter is generally required for most games. Just having a model of a cute girl in the game doesn't make up for shit gameplay in most cases. It's similar to CGDCT anime. They don't really have anything going for then except cute girls, but it's still fun to watch.
>>382424612
My dick
>>382424563
>>382424612
Something about her closet personality and overall petite looks just gets me I guess.
>>382416907
>spbp
>>382424684
>>382424718
>closet personality
The games repeatedly hammer into your face the fact that she's just lonely and she's only a cunt because she's afraid of making friends. Being textbook, connect the fucking dots tsundere isn't having a "closet personality."
>>382416807
Kinda. A cute girl in the game will make me interested in the game and research the game to see if it's worthwhile gameplay wise and not just some shallow waifubait.
Going in dick first, buying a game just because there's cute girls in it will just set me up for displeasure in awful games with mediocre gameplay (Nepnep games, Conception, most of the weeb rpgs that were on Vita)
>>382424896
>>382419441
That gameplay look like a fucking chore.
>>382424896
fuck youuu I couldn't remember the word.
Tsundere, I like her tsundere personality
Noire's only friend is herself, how sad
>>382425037
You've really gotta stop enabling archetypes.
Can we agree that Blanc is the worst megami?
>>382425216
Nah fuck you. Blanc is the best girl in the entire series.
>>382424896
But Blanc is queen-cunt of the Nepverse.
Noire just comes across that way because she's an overly insecure workaholic
>>382425352
You've clearly never dated a bipolar girl with rage issues
>>382425216
Nah, Plutia is.
>>382425439
>3D
Of course fucking not. Where do you think you are?
>>382425478
You can eat a dick
>>382425689
Prove me wrong fuckboi
>>382425735
I don't need to prove your taste is shit when you do it out in the open
>>382425689
Plutia has the sexiest HDD form and this is a fact
>>382425786
So, you can't.
>>382425851
Yes
>>382420175
Why do you care about normie friends?
Why do you even have normie friends?
Why do you even have friends at all?
i wish both sjw's and shitty weeb games dev would die in auschwitz
>>382419441

Is this like harvest moon but more realistic, boring, and everything beside rice is DLC?

that's the only thing Plutia is good for, I'd fuck both her forms until she passes out but that's it

No there's relatively cool looking action combat in sidescrolling levels, too.
>>382425851
>That fucking special attack where you get the sub-POV of her stepping on you and grinding her heel into you while saying how she's going to train you
Literally the most boner-inducing thing I've ever seen in a game that wasn't a legit hentai title
>>382416807
Cute Nep picture mind if I save it to my hard drive?
>>382426434
It's all yours my friend

This can not be forgiven.

But are you gay? (as in gay male, those that doesn't like woman)
Not shaming you or anything, for science
>>382430801
well its a start i suppose
I gotta admit there's some games I have bought due to the cute girls - Shantae and Pirates Curse, Rabi-Ribi, Recettear and Nep games.
Shantae was great
Rabi-Ribi was great
Recettear was great as well
Nep games, eh, I like the characters and overall story of the games just dont take it too seriously and expect some literature classic.
Gameplay is bit dull at times but sometimes you just want to do some mindless grinding so why not do it with cute girls.
Uni best operator.

>putting best girl with the 3 worst in the series
spacebunny is a miracle of the universe, she does not deserve this treatment
>>382416807
Yep. Seeing cute anime girl in a game i play to get fun is cool. Of course one wouldn't fit into game about seroius brutal murderfucking game, in which you shold brutally murderfuck some brutal monsters. But even in that case something might be done IF NEEDED.
>>382431207
If the game doesn't pander to me with cute or sexy girls i don't buy it.
>>382431452
this, no loli no buy, that goes double for MMOs, which is why I rarely ever play them
i hate anime girls. i can only get off to 2D if it's furshit.
>>382416807
Only if I can be the cute anime girl.
>captcha: pick belts
Cute girls are the best horror game protags usually.
Cute 2Ds are always a plus.
>>382416807
No but a game having giant robots influences my purchasing decision
>>382416807
Ff15 and cidney, if you count that
>>382431943
did you enjoy titanfall2?
>>382432225
Of coursenot
>>382416807
If a game has cute anime girls that's typically a sign that it's not worth playing, so yes.
>>382418487
>Velvet is ugly
she's the most attractive tales girl, objectively.
>>382416807
Just ones with character creation
>>382431549
Kill yourself furtrash.
>>382432604
>she's the most attractive tale girl, objectively.
I have to disagree but to each his own.
No, but is a way of attracting attention to it for a few seconds which might, or not, influence my decision to buy it.
Of course, better this than don't doing anything at all. Any marketing is good marketing and when you cannot afford to spend a lot of money on it, cute anime girls are a must.
>>382427071
Noire is for befriending, not for bully.
She just has chronic sinusitis for living in a pollution ridden Lastation, not bad breath itself. She just needs reassuring, head pats and antibiotics.
>>382416807
Is this from the newest game?
I may not like Neptune that much but I'm a big day for shimapan.
>>382434332
it's from the Cyberdimension game
I like games with cute anime girls but I think Neptunia is shovelware garbage liked by ironic weebs.
>>382434912
I think you are maybe mistaking Neptunia for Senran Kagura, or maybe Nekopara... Neptunia is actually pretty decent.
>>382416807
Yes, yes it does.
>>382416807
Yup, of course it does.
>>382416807
Yes. However, I do not like the girls from Nep games and I don't like the gameplay either.
>>382416807
Neps are cute
>>382416807
Not always.
>>382416807
What if I usually buy games that has cute lolis?
The only thing that gives me pleasure these days is anime panties
>>382416907
This exactly, it really is too bad.

Not really. My weebasiangf eats that shit up though.
>>382445119
You acquire taste
>>382431016
Most games that use cute anime girls as a selling point are mediocre at best. It's like the devs know they can't make a good game, so they try to appeal to the waifufag crowd for some easy money
>>382445423
I legit bought NieR: Automata thinking it would just be a fanservice game and hoo boy was I mistaken.I instead got GOTY
Asked in another thread but this seems better, I'm looking for some decent pantsu games this sale, any ideas?
>>382447649
who needs good games when you can have cute anime girls instead
>>382416807
No, but it makes me more likely to be aware of its existence in the first place.what's something cute and relaxing to watch in between Yuki Yuna Is A Hero and Symphogear?
A little bit. Games like Hyperdimension Neptunia are kind of like the video game equivalent of Yotsuba or Yuru Yuri. You don't buy them for an engaging story or interesting gameplay, you buy them because you want something cute and kind of funny. They just wouldn't work if they weren't cute.
You already asked this and everyone told you they did.
>>382448221
I'm not a shallow cunt. Cute anime girls don't make up for bad gameplay
