Samurai Sanders posted:Before World was there ever any attempt to bring in new players at all? I only tried a few of them but they were all clearly built on the assumption that the player was coming into them having already played a previous game. There hasn't been a huge western push until World if that is what you mean. I think Nintendo had to fund the translation for 4U, Generations, and Stories.

Nintendo began helping Capcom push Monster Hunter since Tri on Wii (similar to how they pushed Dragon Quest). It resulted in the series doing better with each entry, which culminated in a million units sold "in the West". With World the series became a platinum seller in the West because, lets face it, they switched to systems where the market for these games were.

Remember the PlayStation remasters of FF III, IV, V, VI, and Chrono Trigger? I don't want to dig my PSX out of whatever box it's hiding in, would love to play those again. Also, Square, while you're doing that, Front Mission 3 would be great too.

Samurai Sanders posted:Nah, I've still never played a MH game in English. Before World I think I've played 2, 3p, 4 and XX, and all of them dropped you off in the village and basically said "welp, you know what to do so get to it!" Oh okay, I could have sworn 4 had more story bits to help with that. But yeah Monster Hunter is a series similar to Dragon Quest where all design decisions were based on tradition. Like Dragon Quest, Monster Hunter is also huge in Japan so don't fix what isn't broke. Like the biggest thing World did is streamline the process and cut out all the chaff so it can get you back to the core gameplay which is mostly unchanged.

Regy Rusty posted:Man after how much I loved World, I was really hoping I could figure out how to like Generations Ultimate. The first fight in the demo was fun enough and I beat it on my first try, but the other two were absolutely miserable. The third one at least had a really cool design and attacks, but the whole time I was fighting it I just kept wishing that I was doing so in World instead. The worst part about Monster Hunter games is that they're never going to bring back the cool insects and crustaceans because they can't reuse anything from the various dragonsaurs

https://twitter.com/XSEEDGames/status/1032439761284153345 Fair word of warning: This is probably Senran Kagura Reflections (Known as Shinobi Refle in Japan) If it's released like in Japan, the base game will be $10 and it will quickly rise to the top of the eShop, prompting some  posts here.

Its kinda funny, but I love Okami while having no urge to get the switch version. Mostly because I got the Wii version (with IGN watermark) and loved it so much I 100%ed it twice and spent so long looking at the bestiary and listening to the music that I have the whole game etched into my memories to this day.

A.I. Borgland Corp posted:How bad could it be It's the Senran Kagura Peach Beach Splash dressing room with a Visual Novel style plot around it. The girls are trapped in a shinobi barrier which brings out alternate personalities. The player selects one by rubbing their hands and bringing one of the personalities out. (It's also the only time HD rumble is used and it indicates if the finger will start a new event.)  Each personality is pretty standard for a Japanese game. Little Sister, Techer, Wife, Idol, etc. They all ask for a massage which opens up the grabby hands and water gun from the Senran Kagura dressing room. The controls are the same as PS4/Vita just adapted to the Switch. Depending on where the player touches the backgound lighting changes and eventually a waggle game becomes available.  The waggle games are just shaking the controller in rhythm while giving a massage until a meter fills up then they "finish"  The VN scene then continues based on the background color chosen and a meter fills up. After 5 sessions it unlocks a part of an illustration. Once the illustration unlocks the barrier breaks and the girl goes on to the events of Senran Kagura 7

And I do mean Finish E: The base character is the series protagonist Asuka (Granddaughter of two legendary good Shinobi) DLC is Yumi (Japanese Waifu. Good ninja school student, but has a different philosophy to Asuka's school. Seen in earlier post), Yomi (girl who grew up poor until being accepted into an elite evil ninja school with a love of bean sprouts), Ryona (a shinobi who defected to the evil school and does exactly what it says on the tin), and Murasaki (shut in nerd girl accepted to evil shinobi school but is allowed to not go because she can kill anyone who gets near her. Seen above) Dehry fucked around with this message at 05:22 on Aug 23, 2018 |

Well it sounds like it's all important lore. This game, like most, if a document of another reality with events that are happening, we have to depict the truth of those events or we are just liars.
