Square-enix is wasting their time on some muh mature story shit when they can be wasting their time on making Final fantasy crystal chronicles 2
never going to happen. The original crystal chronicles was seen as a massive failure and squeenix doesn't want to admit it was because of the fucking retarded requirement for having the GBAs for multiplayer.
The subsequent DS spinoff shits, whilst INFINITELY inferior to the original game, were better received. Then came crystal bearers, a visually gorgeous game with great story but laughable gameplay (if you can even call it that) which only further marred the franchise.
Both console CC games were poorly received and have solidified the franchises future as a portable only series.
My Life as a King was pretty cool but it lacked proper customization such as specific resident placements and any real endgame. Not to mention when you had the town even half full the game chugged to an almost complete stop.
>>341821063
Didn't they release one on the Wii?
>>341821482
FFXV is going to be their next massive failure, i can feel it in my bones
>>341822128
echos of time
>>341822143
Your 'bones' have been saying that to every major release, you just want things to fail so you can go "I told you so"
>>341822143
Literally too big to fail.
>>341822375
have you seen the gameplay? there was no impact when you hit something and plus a lot of people who played the demo said it was bad
Crystal Chronicles was shit.
>>341822143
why does /v/ want this game to fail so much?
>>341822840
I don't want it to fail it just looks like it's gonna fail
>It's a muh mature story game
>gameplay look like shit
>they change Stella or luna or whatever
>>341822128
>>341822314
there was also this weird adventure game that was hyped to hell and then completely forgotten about.
It wasn't that bad. it wasn't that good either.
>>341821482
Did Crystal Chronicles have a story? I just remember doing the same missions over and over and then stopped playing.
>>341822673
That OST and visual design though, goddamn. Also that comfy, yet somehow eerie atmosphere all throughout the game. 10/10.

Too bad the gameplay was such hot garbage.
>>341823146
All i remember about crystal bearers was the xplay review which pretty much hated it.
Yukes are objectively best race
>>341823264
The world is shrouded in this toxic gas called miasma that kills anybody that breathes it in for too long. Only thing that protects against that shit is crystals, but the big ones used to protect towns and cities run outta juice if you don't recharge them with this holy water thing called myrrh. Each year every settlement send out a caravan is to fill a chalice with myrrh, but they can only get it from these weird crystalline trees that are protected by a bunch of monsters and shit.
Throughout the game as you talk to people, many of them say how they just keep forgetting things more and more often as time goes on. By the end of the game you find the reason why (and I think the source of all the miasma too, don't remember).
That's all I can recall off the top of my head.
>>341823815
Not selkies and big nips?
>>341824096
*Not selkies and their big nips
>>341824096
>that random event when you are traveling the roads and you find this dancing selkie girl with some dude that invites you to watch
>tfw used to fap to it every time when I was younger
Now I feel nostalgic.
>>341823815
Lilties are the true master race
>>341823146
>>341824096
best part of that game was tan-lines
>>341824096
who cares about tits
i just want cool helmets
>>341824609
Yeah they even managed to get rid of that pesky black knight.
Most people only like the first game
but I love the entire series
>>341824609
Bucket helm Lilty best Lilty
>>341821063
But there's at least two spin offs for Crystal Chronicles.
>>341822524
>Literally too big to fail.
FFXIV was even bigger and it took a full reboot to save it. FFXV has many things against it that FFXIV didn't even have. Chief among them being the Duke Nukem Forever effect.
>>341824609
>that lilty on the far right
I'd totally pick it.
>>341824858
>bucket helm
mah niggas
bucket helm>steel visor>bare head>spike helm
The music in Crystal Chronicles is amazing. But I never played it when it came out because I didn't like the style and past FF games like IX burned me out.
What's so good about it? Besides the ability to play with others since I'm obviously not doing that.
>>341825178
>those thighs
Post more Selkies
Loved Crystal Chronicles as a kid, but looking back, the item management system was terrible. The graphics were really good for a gamecube game, and the music was memorable.
>>341825319
the Storytelling of some of the in game events are pretty nice.
>>341821063
They did that, it was shit
>>341825319
The story is pretty nice, but quite minimalistic in comparison to other FF games. The gameplay is... Eh, at best. It's quite repetitive and not very engaging. I would recommend playing it if you friends willing to play it with you, because otherwise you will probably be bored to tears.
The highlights of the game are definitely the music and visuals though. Also those narrations at the beginning of each level are amazing.
>>341821063
It would be a non-nintendo exclusive, which would make it shit by default as it would focus on graphics and cinematics instead of raw gameplay like all current FF games.
>>341825319
its pretty much like diablo (gameplay wise) but no shitty loot system.
>>341823146
I always got the feeling that this game got a budget cut. It had a nice concept with the manipulation/gravity thing being the main (and sadly only) feature.
>>341825998
Well I prefer the loot and crafting systems in Diablo over any FF game so that's not exactly selling the game to me.
>>341826060
I always felt that game was made in mind for the people who hated the Crystal Chronicles series, rather than the few that did enjoy it.
though thats not to say I didn't enjoy the game, I did, despite its problems
>>341826060
>I always got the feeling that this game got a budget cut.
Well the first game did. Its sequels probably just started out on a shoe string budget like Suikoden games did.
What would y'all like to see in a new FFCC game?
>>341826352
An option between handheld or splitscreen, and some silly outfits.
>>341826060
It was just in development for way too long.
You can tell it went through a ton of redesigns until they finally settled, and by then the Wii was in the awkward stage where no one wanted to try and develop an actual game for it besides Nintendo.
>>341826352

>>341827018
>romance/friendship system
Why? Is it related to wanting more racism? So that you can take the antagonizing path of a relationship on certain characters?
>>341827018
Racism?
>>341821482
>The original crystal chronicles was seen as a massive failure
it was seen as a massive success, that's why they made a bunch of sequels. However crystal bearers was seen as a failure.
>>341827360
>is it related to wanting more racism
not really, but i guess it could be related
>>341827435
in the original, its not as explicit as irl
but its more like
Yukes thinking you're stupid if you're not a yuke
Selkies robbing you in their town and not letting you jump on their trampline if you're not a selkie
Lilty thinking you're weak if you're not a lilty
>>341827435
Most fantasy games has racism
>>341827018
You think Square could make a good dating sim?
>>341828675
they could
why are Lilty so adorable
I want to impregnate a Selkie!
>>341829148
because you like onions
>>341829229
onions are good
>>341826903
>>341826820
the blatant censorship ....because Americans clearly hate boobies
>>341829285
yeah onions are kool
Yukes and Lilties makes the best combo
strength + magic, whats not to love
>>341829148
Would you fuck a Lilty?
>>341829330
wut
>>341827624
>However crystal bearers was seen as a failure.
It was so shit.
SO SHIT.
Fucking WHY.
>>341824419
Anon are you fucking me?
I did the same!
>>341831754
yes i would
then again i would fuck all the races
>>341832324
To be honest, I would fuck anything as long as they have tits.
>>341823146
I had a ton of fun with this shit, shame that cool shit like the opening free fall gatling mayhem were secluded sections.
>>341832256
We all have our nostalgia faps, anon.
>>341824639
I liked the female yuke helmets but the stupid cone-shaped tit-armor was so dumb.
>>341832692
How else would you know they're a female?
other than their wings
>>341821482
Eh the DLC tower in My Life as a King was decent endgame content. Although Floors 80+ were full of bullshit to prevent once pimped out party from clearing tons of floors in a single trip.
>Lilty fights with pole weapons
>switch them to fighting with spoons in the next game
Yeah fuck you too SE
This thread is making me want to play crystal bearers. Belle is cute
>>341821063
You are only giving a damn because of the cute girls, you disgusting waifufags.
what happen to /v/ and why is it filled muh waifufag fags like >>341838783
>>341821063
>square
>caring about their Nintendo spinoffs
People only care about the numbered FF games. So far none of the numbered FF games post 6 have been on consoles. Fucking hell, not even the Nintendo spinoffs have numbered sequels. Square is Sony (and Microsoft) property first and foremost.
It's here!
>>341839010
When your shit infected my games and ruined them by pandering to the lowest common denominator. Women are cancer, women in video games, by extension, cancer.
>>341839272
We reverse tumblr now?
Despite all the hate, I had a lot of fun with DS CC. Ring of fate had garbage multiplayer but okay single player content. Echoes of time was purely designed for multiplayer and it was fun doing that. All the chaos caused by massive input delays for whoever's not the host cause cancer but still fun. Throwing each other and reaching seemingly impossible to reach location was also great. God I miss playing these stupid ass games with friends as a kid
