Mithaldu posted:Also, now that you mention SAO. The original translation (after patch) was entirely usable, and mainly bad due to being awkward and having bad grammar/orthography. However the retranslation also sucks, because, while it may have perfect grammar/orthography, it changed the characters from "bunch of ordinary people stuck in a J-MMO" to "actual hardcore LARPers larping it up in the middle ages". Wasn't SAO's original translation basically machine-done with a little editing here and there? It seems like anything could be an improvement to that.

I know that ImpAtom or someone is going to point out that with a little word switcheroo, you could say the same thing about SK, and this is true, but it's possible D_T might actually be growing and developing finer tastes. Maybe. Hopefully.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Burst improved the basic beat em up formula with the addition of the aerial raves and generally set a solid foundation to develop further the concept. Deep Crimson took those very same foundations and the few things that worked from Versus and built a pretty solid gameplay that stood out between the genre. I really wanted to like the 3DS game because the aerials were fun but the anemic framerate killed it for me.

Takoluka posted:Maybe I should've clarified; the ports are incredibly faithful with upscales. The games themselves aren't HD-upgraded, but everything else has been improved greatly, and there's the inclusion of online play mechanics (that apparently worked really well). My mistake on the HD visual problem. I didn't know anyone in the fighting game scene who was super into it. Like, Morrigan is sort of iconic at this point but that's about it.

ImpAtom posted:Senran Kagura would seriously be less pathetic if it was porn. Like if you have a naked character pole-dancing and you're still trying to censor things that's just fuckin' sad. Agreed. It's like skinimax stuff except they can't do that last step and show a nipple or something. When you're shooting sushi rolls out of characters' asses while they dance around naked on poles, you've effectively got a porn game.

VitaTV prices are already pretty rock-bottom at least in the US. Honestly if it wasn't for the lack of 1080p, I might be inclined to buy one to replace my aging Roku3 but alas~

Dehry posted:Your Roku 3 can do more things than a PSTV, aside from the "Plays Vita Games" function. Netflix never came over to the device. I never looked at the whitelist but I assumed it could play a lot of PSX and PSP games, which has some appeal. But yeah, no Netflix and no Plex means it's a no-go.

Mithaldu posted:That's the point though. XCOM does not have much downtime. It is on fact optimized to minimize downtime to increase demographic appeal. XCOM2 has a lot of "downtime" but that's because they somewhat increased base management stuff. It actually strikes a good balance. My issue with MH initially was that it had a super slow start in terms of getting to the actual monster hunting and the controls were so stiff and it felt like I should be able to target lock monsters. Eventually I got through the slow start and realized the control jank was actually part of the appeal. I never really enjoyed the multiplayer though because it was too chaotic, better-playing or better-equipped players seemed to trivialize battles, and I liked the intensity of fighting a big dangerous monster 1v1.

While I love the Vita, there are so many things wrong with it that happened before it even got released. 3G, overly expensive and necessary proprietary memory cards, a back-touch panel that sounded appealing until you used it for more than 15 seconds, a lack of support for backwards compatibility for several months after release, and a high price point that reflected or worsened all of these problems basically conspired to keep the Vita from being a success. It needed a 2.0 revision that dropped all the bullshit and let the thing use microSD memory and Sony seemed quite intent on not ever letting that happen.

Golden Battler posted:Hey Vita thread, way back years ago in the first Vita thread someone posted a 2 panel comic of a Vita Girl talking about how excited she was to be like her PS3-senpai and then the next panel she was a slob talking about waifus. The best I can offer you is that I remember that comic and it made me laugh. It existed. I don't remember who made it though.

I think part of the reason the 3DS has bottomed out quicker than previous Nintendo handhelds is actually graphics fidelity. I knew more than a few people who saw the "New 3DS" and were disappointed that it had the exact same anemic screen resolution. Even if you feel that graphics aren't very important (and I'd agree), the 3DS screens look archaic when compared to even a free crappy Android you'd get when signing up for a mobile plan and that's sort of disappointing. It becomes even more of a problem when it makes small text actually hard to read in some RPG's.

Eventually the PS7 will be a chip implanted in your brain that displays interfaces on the inside of your occipital lobe and you'll be able to "like" another player's gameplay videos by farting so it's all moot.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Is kind of depressing to see the Xbox/Bone graphs Bone sales have officially been "reaching 10 million" for years since MS got cagey about releasing hard numbers. Estimates based on the data their partners have released place them at around 20-25mil. Their situation is not great and it kind of sucks since they did bankroll quite a few good games during the 360 and now they're not nearly as eager to.

Stux posted:ps4 is profitable, they can come in at the same power/price point as it is currently. if they dont then lol The NX does need power on par with or better than the PS4 to make developers take notice and offer a decent value proposition to users but it doesn't need to be a PS3-like powerhouse sold at a loss since they of all people don't need to do cutting edge. More important (and worrying) is it needs a decent UI out of the gate, it needs to connect well with the current estore and support at least limited BC since the WiiU ran short, it needs a more robust digital distribution platform than Nintendo is currently fielding, and it needs some actually decent third party support if Nintendo wants to compete directly with Sony. Nintendo has a tough road ahead.

Policenaut posted:Ooh, that'd do it I guess. I watched some of that uncut gameplay on YouTube a few days ago, of like the first few stages, and it looked pretty good but instead I just decided to finally bite the bullet on Dariusburst after watching some footage of that. Really disappointing to hear that about it, because it looked fun! If you have a PS4 or PC, I recommend playing Nuclear Throne on one of them. It's really fun if occasionally frustrating.

"We don't mean to give you the impression that we feel that the Vita market is weak or anything; by no means do we want to make it seem like it's any sort of inferior platform. I would never for example say that the Vita is a dead console that its manufacturer barely supports. If I were to compare foods and video game consoles and perhaps I were to compare the PS4 to a good quality steak at a decent price, I would never by any means compare the Vita to Arby's. Never."

Motto posted:It's a series from noted Bad Game Dev Compile Heart. The last one was hailed as being the first entry to have "gameplay that is actually kind of good in some ways" so that speaks to the rest of the series. People say in terms of writing, it's the "Family Guy" of anime games for better or worse.

I really am curious if there is anything portable Playstation hardware planned by Sony or if they're just going to not bother. I still use remote play on PS4 with it pretty often, it'd be weird if they just let that feature die.

Mr. Fortitude posted:Outside of phones I really doubt it. Sony look at the Vita as a gigantic failure, even though most of the blame can be placed squarely on Sony for never bothering to even market the drat thing. The Vita is a study in "how to make and sell a thing the wrong way and then be surprised by its failure." The fact that it's done well at all is a testament to how much people still like handheld gaming.

MisterAlex posted:Well, Jack's not wrong. Sony did do a good job of killing the Vita from the get-go, but mobile gaming undoubtedly played a significant role as well. You also missed out on the bizarre inclusion of 3G support that didn't work with multiplayer and people questioned the moment it was announced.

As much as I love the Vita, I just couldn't recommend it for him as he only owned Xbox consoles and was a fairly casual gamer. As an indie game portable with a nice screen, it's not a bad purchase though. I'm not sure if that would appeal to your friend but I have a friend who treats it that way and he loves it. I do too. I'm not knee deep in the tiddy, I swear
