ITS NOT FAIR!
It came out yesterday
Not enough user have played it to give it a fair judgment. The opinion of game journos is meaningless
>>343192638
OP shitposting and taking game journos seriously.
Add 13 points to all weeb games

You all were praising paid 10/10 Uncharted 4 reviews
what happened?
>>343192989
>Sony exclusive gets bad scores
>REVIEWS DON'T MATTER
>An exclusive on another console gets bad scores
>LOL FANBOYS ON SUICIDE WATCH
It's fucking Star Ocean, the reviews are not going to be all that great. The series is niche.

Don't make the mistake of thinking everyone on /v/ is the same person, nor that they have the same opinions.
>>343192638
20 hour JRPG
it was never going to be good, stop acting surprised.

WHAT HAPPENED?
>>343192638
genuine question, are any open-world japanese games actually good?
I have not played many but the ones that I have played (stuff like Monster Hunter and Xenoblade) were pretty boring and VERY repetitive.
I feel like repetitive games deserve a 6-7/10 score if everything else is fine. doesn't mean it's a bad game anyway
>>343192638
>What went wrong?
It's Star Ocean.
>>343193209
>Monster Hunter and Xenoblade
I bought these two memes because /v/ shilling
Almost 80% of things /v/ shill you should stay away
I learned this lesson the wrong way
>>343193118
The idea that, while using an anonymous imageboard with no accountability, you could correctly identify hypocrisy in any user or group of users is just silly. You have no way of knowing who is genuinely or not a member of that group, and because 4chan has no registration and tripfagging is gay, there will never be a way for you to verify the delusions dancing in your head.
>>343192638
Its a fucking Star Ocean game? DId you seriously not expect it to be shitty? We had only one game that was good and that was probably a goddamn accident, the only reason you cunts hyped this is because the console war faggotry is completely out of control this generation
>have it pre-ordered on amazon
>don't have prime
>they refuse to ship anything for at least a week
>see shit reviews
>cancel it
>amazon's stuck with the shit game now
>will now wait for it to go down to $20
>much better the SO4
>get worse reviews
I'm loving the game so far.

Fuck you I do what I want
>>343193290
well, I suppose some people like games like that. hell, I think I would've loved Xenoblade if I was 15 years old (not trying to insult those who do like the game).
If the worlds were more vibrant and if there was more stuff to do, I think it would be great. I'd really like to experience Final Fantasy 15 because that one actually looks promising in terms of variety
>What went wrong
Retards who haven't played the series played it and didn't understand the controls or combat, so gave it a bad score
What else is new.
>>343193510
FF takes the edgy meme and puts in a hipster way that I don't like
It's not cyberpunk, it's not traditional.. it's a mix between american teenagers in a trip with emo clothes
Xenoblade is ok but xenoblade X Is 100% garbage
I'd like to talk about someone I always see in Japanese game reviewers always complain about "tropes". I don't deny for a second that Japs re use token character archetypes all the fucking time but Western games do the exact same shit just different kind of tropes. Yet I never see this called out or used as a big negative in western game reviews.
Anyone have any insight into this?

>It's fucking Odin Sphere, the reviews are not going to be all that great. The game is niche.
Nah, fuck off nigger. The game is just bad.
heres what went wrong
i stayed up until now (12:19pm EST) from yesterday to beat the game
guess what happenedfuckin final boss gets stuck in his final form right before the guffin does the thing to let it take damage, so he's invincible and my party has been whacking at him for 15 minutes now and i'm not going to fight his first two forms again so i'm done with this fucking game fucking chinks can't code for shit god damn squint eyes maybe if they opened their fuckin optical receptors they'd be able to make a game code that didn't fuck me over
>>343193662
I think people often overanalyze the style used in games, especially japanese ones
I mean as long as the gameplay and story is right, I'd even play with literal faggot protagonists
>>343192638
Censored with diaper panties.
>>343193747
Why are you comparing Odin Sphere? People like that game.
>>343193715
chink tropes are tropes for a reason, just like amerifat tropes are tropes for a reason
we don't typically experience the people and societal norms that make those tropes appealing or accepted / seen as people so reviewers are quick to pull the trope card because yes it is an archetype yeah but it's from a different culture so it seems more forced than it is
>>343193908
They have about the same user score and discussion is already dead both are just mediocre games.
>>343194049
>User score
>>343192638
No MS cash to make a decent game. This is why jumping to the Playstation is a bad idea
IT KEEPS ON HAPPENING
>>343194049
>user score
Lmao don't worry, greatness awaits
Why do people still care about reviews?
Good or bad.
>Neptune VII has a higher critic score even with points being knocked off by fanservice triggering
>>343194458
No one owns a WiiU and even less weebs terrible sales is all that awaits.
>>343194332
DELETE THIS
>>343193118
More like Nintendogaf just has to always shitpost as hard as possible due to being stuck with a dead console until the NX disappoints with it's next gimmick.
>>343194823
Because as we all know, only Nintendrones shitpost
What happen with the star ocean 2 port for ps4? Also Star ocean 3 need a port hd too with trophies.

That's some cringe ass shit. What was wrong with just calling it Star Ocean 5?
>>343193908
Objectively;
One is a idol based rpg, the other is a shounen rpg. Both jrpgs but very different. I would pick Star Ocean even if it was worse because I want to kick ass not sing or dance.
>>343194332
>Cyber Sleuth
>74
>Umbrella Corps
>Not 20 or lower
Truly the "critics" have shit taste.
Also, how bad does SO get fucked up? I'm enjoying it so far but I'm sure that in true Star Ocean fashion the story will turn so shit at the half-way point that the entire thing gets tainted despite the tight gameplay.
The 7 people in battle was an objective mistake 4 is the perfect number to control and that will never change.

HOWEVER
