IT KEEPS HAPPENING
HOW LONG DO WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR GREATNESS, SONYBROS?
Why is it 48% off already?
>>333621210
Used copies.
>>333621210
Games in Japan are ridiculously expensive.
>>333620727
I honestly wonder what goes through the mind of the devs when they decide to downgrade the quality of their games from the last one, Star Ocean 3 had a shit story, but gameplay wise was simply good and long too, Star Ocean 4 had a bad story too, gameplay wasn't as good as 3 but with little fix here and there it could be good, also many bad characters, only ones I liked were Meracle and that girl with great ass which name... I just forgot.
Now what I see with this one, seems like the gameplay was downgraded, I haven't seem much of the crafting and the whole world doesn't look very futuristic for a Star Ocean game.
>>333621210
that's not a bad rating considering witcher 3 got 4 stars
>>333621538
48% off as in price.
you silly.
>It'll probably launch at $40 or $50.
I'm okay with this.
As long as its 20 hours are actually fun instead of an overlong shitshow like 3 and 4, this will be the second best Star Ocean.
People like
>>333621387
who want every game to be the next AAA 200 hour ballbuster are literally the cancer killing gaming and the reason we don't get mid-range games anymore.
>>333620727
Amazon.jp sells games internationally now
What are the chances of Nier Automata or The Last Guardian flopping?
>SO5
>Greatness
>>333622032
Nier 2 is gonna be a repeat of the first, but with a medium sales bump from Plat fans and from the fact that Taro's finally gained a sizable cult following in the West.
>>333620727
>shitposters are so dumb they literally think "await" means you have to wait and not the complete opposite
Still hyped for it
Dont care what the gooks think of it, I'll probably enjoy it anyway
>>333623023
He is not wrong when he says PC gets more and better games from consoles than consoles do from PC
>>333621827
I'm not saying the games should be the same as the last one, I'm saying that instead of making it better they downgrade it, I suppose you didn't read everything I posted there.
Still looking forward to it
Don't really care what the elevens think of it.
and they made fun of toz for being half assed
I hear this game is only 20 hours even if you don't rush. Is that true?
>>333623921
An anon who reads jap said its about right, he spent 38 hours total after doing all sidequests and considers it the worst star ocean and thats coming from someone who enjoyed the last hope so take it as you will.
SO5 was a disappointment. Time to place our bets on Tales of Berseria.
>>333625010
>Time to place our bets on Tales of Berseria.
>>333625010
Berseria will have better combat but I expect everything else to be as bad as Zestiria, if not worse.
>>333623495
You call it a "downgrade" because it's shorter and you heard its gameplay is meh. Shorter length isn't a "downgrade".
>>333625010
Berseria will at least be meatier.
>>333622013
Anyone tried importing with them recently?
I need to know if they are fast or not for when I import Im@s PS
>>333624087
>and thats coming from someone who enjoyed the last hope
That just makes me think it's actually good.
>>333620727
I don't trust /v/ opinion in actions RPGs, and don't trust Japans game opinion on anything.
>>333625010
>loved abyss
>loved symphonia
>got bored of zesteria in 2 hours
Maybe I just haven't gotten to the main part of the game but damn I just don't have the drive to play that game
>>333625010
>Time to place our bets on Tales of Berseria.
I'd rather keep my chips then, thank you.
>>333626249
>disliked abyss
>disliked symphonia
>loved xillia
>loved xillia 2
>got bored of zesteria 20 hours in
Zesty never gets better, it's a real turd.
>>333626518
I've been meaning to get a PS3 so I can play all those tales games I've been missing out on but I keep putting it off.
They shouldn't have censored it.
>>333626249
>liked Zestiria (first Tales)
>people recommend Vesperia, Symphonia and Xillia to play next
>realize how crappy Zestiria truly is compared to the rest of the series
>>333626994
Thanks Americans
What was censored this time?
>>333625010
Well at least it can't be worse than Zestiria.
>>333626994
>Americans find sexy panties on an 18 year old offensive. Let's punish the rest of the world.
Thanks Americans.
>>333626518
This. I've played them all since abyss. Zesty is kinda bad.
>>333627712
Blame the same midwesterners idiotic enough to vote for Cruz. They let their religion guide their dicks in all circumstances.

>I feel that being able to role-play and adventure and journey in a world as the protagonist is what makes a JRPG a JRPG, and what makes it good.
I'll take "shit opinions" for $300.
>>333626518
I thought I was the only person who didn't like Symphonia at all.
>>333627459
Panties, they're diapers now. Best part is it's for all versions
grandma pantsu, the game
>>333625796
It is a downgrade is shorter, meaning there will be less play time.
> 2.5 stars
> 20 hours jrpg
You're better off buying Neptunia V-II.
Will they learn anything from this mistake?
>>333630359
They never do.
But is there anything wrong with the gameplay?
All I'm hearing are complaints of One Planet and 20 Hours, which is fucking dick
>>333629443
20 hours of a decent game is not a downgrade from 40 hours of shit.
>>333629606
>You're better off buying a fleshlight
Fixed
>>333629606
Nep is ever worse.
>>333630359
No this was the last chance, there won't be SO6.
>>333622013
actually they stopped...
>>333620727
Just wait till 2017. Thats when your own #FE-clone named P5 will be localized. It probably will be garbage, but hey, people need something at least amirite?
>>333630359
What mistake? Game toping sales charts.
>Thanks for ordering Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness Day One Edition PS4 Game from us.
>We have some great news for you, your game has been upgraded to the limited edition for FREE!
based
>>333620727
When you will buy PS4K, of course! Do not fray, the greatness will come, just not on console that was promised and you must spend about the same amount on the slightly powered up version of it! You made it happen when you believed Sony in the first place.
>>333621210
Total flop.
>>333633832
so its another tales of zestiria?
i like to believe these 20 hours complainers are people who never played an rpg
>>333634427
Zestiria sold well despise all the drama.
This one sold like shit that's why it's already 50% off.
>>333634697
>113k
>sold like shit
>>333634697
i would assume the ps3 version will sell lesser now
they shot themselves in the foot when they delayed it
>>333620727
Easy man
It's just a JRPG
Nothing that will blow your mind
