I'm going to be sad when the same thing happens to yakuza 5 /no one buys it since it's coming out right after fallout 4.

I don't think fallout 4 will have anything to do with niche 2012 ps3 game yakuza 5 not selling well

I own and have finished FF5 and I think it's a fun game that's creepy but not particularly scary (mainly because the new camera makes it piss-easy to fight things) and a game that repeats environments a little too often, and there's some typical survival horror weirdness to the controls that will or won't bother people (as well as skeevy bullshit too tedious to discuss).

I also own Devil's Third and in no way is it comparable to FF.

The Devil's Third thing is especially stupid because, if the rumours are to be believed, Nintendo was letting XSEED publish the game because they didn't want it staining their own metacritic record, but when people started complaining that it wasn't coming they decided to take the game away from XSEED and publish it themselves for no good reason? Like, they've hosed their relationship with XSEED and are taking heat for releasing a shitheap, all for the sake of shutting people up about a game that was coming the entire time? People just hate the idea of being denied games due to region-locking and other bullshit, they don't really care how it gets here.

camera control either doesn't work or makes the game too easy when it does, lack of memorable enemies or content, story frontloads all of its information letting you easily tell where it's going, super linear compared to past FF games, "wetness" mechanic doesn't actually add anything of value, when playing off-tv the sound just doesn't work because ???

I'd probably be more likely to buy Yakuza 5 instead of Fallout 4. There are just way too many gives this year and I cannot handle it. I have a huge list of games that I am waiting for a sale on. Speaking of niche Japanese games, is Way of the Samurai 4 on Steam any good? I recently watched the Best friends video of it and it looks pretty strange and interesting.

You can play it fairly easily on the Wii, with an English fan Patch. But it never officially came out here.

Hey Matt, honest question but do you guys actually put the temmie armor on a trivialize the rest of the game? Being honest would be kinda lame to see it turned into Mario RPG 2 so wanting to brace myself for it.

Fatal Frame 2 was also remade for Wii but the English release is PAL-only so you need homebrew to get around the region lock - again, very easy.

Not much I can do about it, sadly. The schedule was already packed, and I insisted on getting Undertale in there in random "3rd video of the day" slots. Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to start it until December at the earliest.

Ah yeah, you can expect Soma.

I'm catching up on the podcast, can anyone link the speedruns mentioned a couple weeks ago during letter time? At work and I know I'll forget to check when I get home, can't really make out the runners name they mentioned either, it's the cast with the hosed mics.

I'm really, REALLY bummed the audio got so hosed up in that Podcast. As some of you know, I've already kinda talked about some things I don't like about being on a 3+ hour podcast, and that one with the hosed up audio I was really feeling at the time. We had great topics, we all got some good hits in, and it was generally really pleasant, my favorite podcast in months. Then the audio is all garbage, so a good chunk of people didn't bother listening to it all the way through. :(

Anyway, the runner is Murphagator, here's his youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=user?MURPHAGATOR

Sometimes poo poo fails, least you didn't lose the whole thing. I'd much rather have a low quality one than you guys needing to rerecord it

Well a big part of it is no one wants a 20GB only download on a 32GB console. And freeing up/buying storage rubs people the wrong way. By contrast you don't hear complaints about NoE since they at least tried to provide a physical option. Also honestly I wouldn't really trust reviews about niche games. Although the general public probably does.
Honestly it's just NoA that's completely rear end backwards this gen. Their abysmal handling of Platinum games, everything about Amiibos, Yoshi's totally believable "6 month delay", and now this. And honestly I'm a lot less likely to cut them slack after the whole Chris Pranger fiasco basically reveals that Treehouse's MO is "gently caress ALL OF YOU WE'RE ALWAYS RIGHT". They're still pissed over Xenoblade too.
EDIT: Oh yeah and there's also censoring religious terms and M-rated games, that too, cause this is still the late 90s.

And then there's this poo poo. They couldn't just say "Hey XSEED is releasing this game" or something? I have to wonder if they have vendetta against them from the Last Story days.

Going by prior evidence, any title that needs that much funding is going to crash and burn anyway.

Well, it would probably crash and burn, but not because of bad fund management or unfulfilled expectations. That would be because of the Lab Zero cuuuuuurse.
