Is this desperation?
>>318437376
It was desperation since they introduced SJW-friendly characters and then Shovel Knight.

C'mon alex

>>318437376
They've been beyond desperate ever since day one, shill.
>>318437376
Who is this?
>Not the Superior Kid
merely icing in the cake as this game becomes funded. do you think mods will make a sticky for it or will we have 50 threads bawwwing about the game getting its funds?
probably
Why does /v/ hate this game?

It's a meme, no one actually hates the game we just find it hilarious when crowd funding fails.

>>318437656

C'mon Anon. They've been getting revealed at good intervals.
>>318438532
/v/ loves seeing someone fails.
>>318437376
>>318438478
Are these real? I would probably back it if they added Quote or Shantae. I love when indie games do this.

>>318439089

>can't get the indie(good) characters till late in the game
That blows
>>318437376
why do you people continue to bring attention to this shit?
The more guest characters they add the less interested in the game I become.
>>318439204
All I know is its a Valkyrie Profile clone. How much does it cost to back?
>>318438746
This
My girlfriend is so hyped for this game and everytime she brings it up I just go "eh it looks good. I hope it gets made", but she says I'm acting weird because I just don't care about it.
Frankly I don't care for it myself. I think the character design sucks- which matters to me in a character-driven game like an RPG- even if the gameplay is pretty good. It's pretty disappointing as a follow-up to Skullgirls.
I mainly just like to laugh at people who invest so much of themselves into something they didn't even help create besides throwing some money at it.
WAY TOO FUCKING MANY CHARACTERS
>>318439187
>>318439067
>>318438746
then you guys better prepare for disappointment
>>318437376

>means they're getting desperate just NOW
I'm sure you'll grow out of parroting everything and being a retard someday, Anon.
>>318439474
Why are guest characters such a draw? I mean with this many most of them are gonna be one-line throwaways or like shovel knight is going to be digging in the background or something.
>>318439359
What? VALK PROFILE?!
Why didn't I hear about this before?
25% of the characters are guests for the advertisement value cause they're desperate
that includes dumb shit like a fucking antropomorphic skating dinosaur and a giant mecha. in a game about east asian mythology
>>318438863
man those pants look comfy af
>>318438532
It's not hate, it's disappointment. Here comes along a legitimately good game but it's bogged down by the fact that asked for WAY too much and that it needed an extension, got a shit ton of fan characters, was shilled to hell and back by plenty of YouTubers (yet ironically enough no SJWs) and is STILL failing.
This is desperation because they know there's no way they can get 250K in 5 days yet they're giving themselves MORE work by adding in a shit ton of fan characters. They want it to be funded but by adding in all these characters they're deviating from their own vision in hopes they can get a little more money from fans of these games.
I don't hate the game. I love the overall concept, think the characters are pretty awesome, love the gameplay style think the presentation, music and graphically, are top notch,and if it got funded the porn would be fantastic. But it ain't happening. Everyone knows it by now. It's just not happening.
>>318439584
>is going to be digging in the background or something.
anonthey're all fully playable characters
I'll concede that the MC literally being the least interestingly designed character is a point against it, but given the gameplay and world they're trying to build you sort of need a more middle-of-the-road main character
anyways it looks like it would be neat but i'm not backing since I don't own a current gen console
>super best friends force their terrible character into another game
>>318437376
>red
>lil bit chubby
Won't kickstart, would buy if released.
What I'm more concerned about is if they're going to run short of funds during actual development thanks to all these guest characters. I seriously doubt they factored them into the original budget.
>>318439586
>why is there fantastical creatures in this fantasy game
all the meme guest characters have actually made me want to pass on the game
pretty much guaranteed to kill any kind of immersion the game might've had beforehand.

which part was hard to understand?
>>318439585
>>318439359
cheapest cost that gets you the game is 30
the combat is like valkyrie profile but with ATB instead of pure turn-based
they also do the 2d platforming thing with enemies walking around, but they want the platforming to not play like dog shit which unfortunately valkyrie profile did not do.
>>318439904
I do, but it's not built for gaming
I own a 3DS and I've been more interested in emulating older games on my computer and phone desu

>>318440001
I didn't know that was how they were in
I redact my statement
Oh my God, there's no way this is real.
I legitimately hope these guys don't get the full funding. It doesn't fucking matter though, since they're using IndieGoGo so they keep all the money anyway and will still shit out this garbage tier fucking meme game.
And I don't use the term "meme game" lightly, but that's what this fucking is. Indivisible is a goddamn meme, and the devs obviously don't give a shit about good gameplay, music, art, or anything substantial in favor of putting in as many popular guest characters as they can.
Fuck this game. If I had the opportunity to steal the funding they'd collected so far, I would do it.
>>318440164

>>318440763
I liked Transistor so this is A.Okay with me.
Can't wait to pirate it family
>>318438863
that's the only character that doesn't look like shit Tbh Senpai
>>318438532
Personally, they should of stuck to their guns and made it another game with sexy characters, instead of going with the diverse cast. Also asking for a shit ton of money (1.5 MIL!) with your selling point being a diverse cast? The only reason it got this far is because of the CONSTANT SHILLING THAT NEVER STOPS and the guest characters that gives this game no identity. They even had an extension and it still looks like it can go either way, succeed or bust. It's pathetic.
So they have been hovering around the $50K required daily average to make it for the last few days. That whale had better turn up soon or it isn't getting funded at the current rate. And given how hard it was just for them to reach the extension, banking on another final push is not logical. There is no guarantee there will be one.
>2 people blew 10 grand each on this
I know this is the kind of thing that shows up on most kickstarters, but it never ceases to surprise me. I wonder what the hell these people are like in real life and what kind of salaries they have to blow that much on something like this.

>>318440763
/v/ secretly wants this to get made. That's why they hate on it so much. If you haven't noticed, every time these idiots bitch about something being too "sjw" it riles said sjws up and then they fund it to make it happen.
/v/ is just playing the game.
I don't actually know shit about it, who's making it, or even what sort of game it's supposed to end up being. I'm kind of curious though, so hopefully it gets done and ends up good.
>>318441124
>or it isn't getting funded at the current rate
the current rate is good enough to get them funded
stop with your artificial daily goals and watch the funding skyrocket to the goal
>>318440973
If Shantae couldn't get them that, then the nobody from Transistor isn't. They went about this whole thing in the wrong way.
If there's one thing that Labzero is good at, its causing shit storms. Never forget the waifu wars
>>318438532
I hate Mike Z, I dont like the fact they are pandering with other indie characters, I think the designs are shit, The gameplay is done better in the game its ripping off, I feel the battle system fucks with the flow I feel they should have either gone platformer or battle rpg
The shilling is another thing. I cannot believe how many threads I see on this game, I want it to fail just to see their tears

>getting paid up front and then again on completion
Does this happen in any other industry?
What if it comes out and it's shit and no one buys it. TOO BAD, ALREADY GOT PAID.
I'm a Shantae fan that gave $230 to Half Genie Hero, bought Pirate's Curse 3 times, one of them the physical Japanese version, bought both Risky's Revenge Director's Cut and Pirate's Curse for 2 friends, and I still wouldn't give money to this. The prototype was boring. Nothing against the game in any way.

>>318441243
It is their only hope at this point. But it really doesn't send a confident message about the existence of the market they were going for when that was the only way they are getting funded. Or the confidence of the actual backers in the devs.
But if it does we will get 2 years of keks watching them struggle to make the game. And potentially run out of funds doing it. So we have that shitstorm to look forward to.

I don't get the hate, the demo was fun, I'm sure it'll have a lot of RPG elements to keep it going, there seems to be a decent amount of exploration and upgrades to get, and it's not even that easy you gotta find your combos and shit you can make up your own personal combo and see whats effective.

>>318441196
I get it anon
but whether this succeeds or fails, which crowdfunded project will /v/ obsessively follow next, hoping it will succeed or fail?
>>318441337
There is nothing artificial about simple mathematics anon. They have not been making enough each day to significantly reduce the daily average required to make it by the end. It had at least stopped going up though so they are getting slightly more funding per day than before.
>>318441517

>>318441802
>The extension's sketchy as all hell.
how?
How many of the players do you think aren't going to use OC's at all and just fill their party out with Shovel Krap, Shantae and the skateboarding dinosaur for memes?

Not sure what you are trying to say but Transistor and Bastion are probably the best "indie" games ever made.

>>318441715
Nope, they've definitely grown in the year or two since Transistor.
>>318440763
It could go either way now.
If it does fail it will be by a sliver and will be fucking hilarious.
I'm amused either way.
It either fails right at the end and they get NO money after likely frantically running around getting guest characters and having people stay afterhours to viral on message boards and social media
or they just barely slide over the finish line at the very last second, AFTER having to get a time extension which while I'm sure in the end is a relief to them is still embarrassing IMO. They had to pull out every single stop to barely get enough to fund when others haven't even had to try.
Also nevermind the thing where a lot of crowdfunded games don't tend to end up getting finished when they barely get funded because of inevitable budget overruns.
>>318441237
FUND IT
>>318441904
Simply because of the nature of a crowdfunded product. Like, they knew they weren't gonna make it, so they begged and pleaded to get an extension past the date so that, even if they don't make the date, they've got a little bit more time.
I don't know, if there's anything about this campaign that I detest the most it's that they went for an extension.
LISA guest when?
>>318442078
Naw really?
>>318442126
>because of inevitable budget overruns.
I remember when people said 3.5 million is way too much to make a game
>>318440165
dose yandere dev not like lab zero?
>>318442107
given that they're probably going to hit the retarded arbitrary daily goal today and the rate is probably only going to accelerate from here on out, failure appears to be incredibly unlikely.
>>318442187
>so they begged and pleaded to get an extension past the date
they did not, read the indiegogo rules, they're not an exception
https://support.indiegogo.com/hc/en-us/articles/205154117-What-You-Can-Can-t-Edit-After-Your-Campaign-Is-Live
every campaign on indiegogo can get an extension if they reach 60% funding by 3 days left
just because you're ignorant of it doesn't make it sketchy
>>318440763
It will.
>>318439438
>Over 20k people donated
Just how many copies to they expect to sell if everyone who was interested is already backing the fucking game?
>>318442187
This is their livelihoods on the line here, it's not like if the campaign failed they could just go back to the drawing board and start a different game. It would probably kill the company.
>>318441802
They should have. I am not opposed to the game being made. I just don't trust them with that much money for a genre they don't have experience in. And it really seems like they are trying to play both sides of the fence of the SJW stuff.
If they really wanted to get this game made, instead of going for broke they should have crowd funded a proper demo to show proof of concept, their ability, and that the market exists. Then if successful they should be able to find a publisher to put up the money for the actual game.
Instead they did this. Appealed to emotion with the whole "We'll go under if this doesn't succeed" when that is no one's fault but their own. Haven't managed their product perception by clearing the air about the SJW leaning cast and theme if that wasn't their intention. And only have promises of future content in the lackluster prototype, of which no amount of arguing semantics with potential customers will change it being perceived as an actual demo and not a tech/graphics prototype.
The fallout from this either way will be a fun ride.
>>318442154

We gotta get the word to Bozon. This needs to happen
>>318444581
they're all judged by my headcanon in which tenoch is a cocky and fun guy and george like a super well mannered middle aged guy
I haven't had enough time to think of a headcanon for kogi yet

Red's the last crossover character.kid would have been better desu
>>318444686
She's really kawaii desu senpai.
Isn't that the Transistor bitch? Her face looks gimped as fuck there.
See having one indie character like Shovel Knight is easy to gloss over, it's just a simple cameo and can be a well hidden character. But at this point it's getting excessive and it'll just be distracting to have that many outside characters.

Transistors only flaw is being too short.
just goes to show those fagmaster tumblrinas wont put their money where their mouths are when they say games need to be more diverse
>>318444803
They're just bonus content though, they won't appear during the main storyline.

Because my expectations coming in were a lot higher. I liked skullgirls, I liked Ahad's designs. When I saw the initial incarnations, I was considering the project as a whole, and all we knew were things that for the most part, I enjoyed. I really liked the monster designs.
When each incarnation came out, I grew less and less enamored with the project, and a lot more disappointed. I think Naga Rider was when it killed all hope for me, since I love tokusatsu, and he was less of a homage and more of a cheap knock-off with HE LOVES JUSTICE
And since then, it has just soured me on the designs I used to like. Some of the more recent ones are okay, but not great.

Here ya go lad.

>one of your past carnations is from a future with technology your current time period hasn't even come close to inventing
>>318444879
And completely incoherent.

>Why doesn't she look like a man

Yes it was
Thats how Matt & Woolie got in the game in a background.
>>318445039
Good strawman
because women can either have a generic frail anime face or they look like men.
>>318444895
I wanted to get this for based Shants but now that I know she's not a part of the story I'm not sure if I want to
>>318444925
Oh and put Naga Rider on my "Bad" category.
>>318445108
do you want me to link you to the knowyourmeme page on headcanons?
>>318443576
I wouldn't even say they're 'bad', just mind-numbingly dull. There aren't many I can look at and say 'yeah, I want that one on my team'. Who gives a shit about Kaldi, George, Dhar etc.

>>318443712
When you speak I hear silence.
>>318443576
Still looking forward to the game, but I'm not really feeling most of these designs.
>>318441162
>>318445108
I hate this artist. Something about the character's faces just looks so goddamn obnoxious
fuck Smash comics in general, too
>>318437376
desperate
>>318445107
Tibetan mastiffs are GOAT
>>318445210
I'm sure she'll have her own quest and dialogue but why would she be part of the main story?
>>318445107
It's fucked up, they even managed to ruin a dog. You really have to go out of your way to achieve that.
>>318445107
It's not that great a dog, anon.
