Remember that the main characters of Persona 5 are all teens. And even Ryuji, the dumbest member of the Phantom Thieves, is smarter than anyone on the Investigation Team

The more I hear about the Persona games, the more terrible they sound. Then again I hate JRPGs.

I like creative fiction in all forms, and enjoy the hit game persona 5 for it's fun dialogue, light hearted subjects, and feel good plot line.

the actual plot of P5 is fine and goes well with the gameplay, the problem is that it's badly written with endless exposition and over writing.

It really isn't that poorly written, especially when compared to other video games.

Just started Yakuza 0, my first ever Yakuza game. I can see this being a fun brawler, but the weird mix of animated and non-animated (the character's lips don't move) cut-scenes is a bit jarring. It kinda feels like a mid-gen PS3 game, but I guess that's part of the charm.

Like a lot of the issue comes from the translation over saying things that could have been left in subtext. There's not much you can do about that though, if you can look past a few extraneous lines of dialogue it's perfectly fine. The plot is strong the characters are believable and human, I grew up with a guy that was basically Ryuji, and they threw a lot of nuance in. I feel like the translation holds it back but not to the degree that you should throw away the whole game. It's very dark, has some adult themes and is super anime, which are all reasons to dislike it. Some people can't get over the art style and you can't play a game you find ugly.

Can someone update the Before I Play for Yakuza 0 to include: -The game doesn't seem to auto-save and won't save for quite a while (~1hr?) after you start it. You'll need to manually save in the phone box immediately after making the phonecall during the first daytime section.

Maybe when the ps5 comes out japan will have invented some sort of system of saving automatically

kirbysuperstar posted:Ryuji is a gigantic terrible fuckboy and easily the worst of the Junpei/Yosuke archtype. I love when he hollers a lot in a really throaty voice after a fight, he has the best animation for coming over to see what's in the chest you're opening, he has a cool role in the gang. Ryuji ftw. I liked junpei too

What's with the proliference of betas now? Seems like every AAA game has "PREORDER NOW FOR EXXXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO THE SUPER TOP SECRET BETA!!1!" now. It's not only annoying, it's stupid, and sets a terrible precedent for future games. Are console games going to end up having people buy unfinished alphas next? Oh, wait... Ark

It's not only annoying, it's stupid, and sets a terrible precedent for future games. It's a way to do a demo but with a) a built-in excuse for anything about it that's unpolished or broken and b) an audience that's already predisposed to like and pay for the game so you don't risk losing any sales. They also get useful data out of it about server usage, I guess.

Yeah Betas are SUPER important for MP games nowadays in terms of network stress tests. Releasing games as "early access" should be totally banned, it ruined Steam. Like you mentioned Zipperelli, no way should Ark have been allowed a PSN sales page.

I would not have bought Overwatch or Titanfall 2 if the betas hadn't left me needing bigger hits.

Conversely, I hated the Titanfall 2 beta and thought the game sucked rear end. The good reviews and Word of mouth here convinced me otherwise.

I don't think a beta has ever soured me on a game as hard as For Honor. Not that I expected anything but 20 minutes of that beta weekend showed me everything I needed.

Knowing that, I have 2 questions: 1. How the gently caress do you justify having it on the PSN store when it's not a full loving game? And 2. How the gently caress do you justify loving DLC for it already, when the god drat vanilla game isn't even done yet? Jesus Christ. Like, how? why?

I was hating on Nioh's style before but I'm starting to get some big boy armor and it's pretty cool looking. Also the animated cutscenes are pretty slick! Also I'm wearing what looks like a sock on my head right now, which is great. I'll probably get salty forever every time I get to the end of a mission then get dunked on in one half-hearted combo by a demon though Samurai Sanders posted:Also your weapons are only things you would find in Akihabara, like PC monitors and anime posters and stuff.

I am spoiled for choice at what to play next right now. Is Nier a relatively short game? I'm not sure I want to take on another 80 hour campaign after I just got my FFXV plat.

Most full runthroughs of Nier clock in between 40-50 hours. So not exactly a short game.
