- SS Setsuna commus TL:

>made the thread before bump limit

How will this be different from Platinum Stars?

How do we call this? SteStage?

When or What time is TD livestream for Tokyo gameshow?

We're about to find out.

>Setsuna

Literally who cares

Sep 23rd, 2PM JST: TD presentation @TGS2017
I haven't seen a stream link posted yet.

>Sep 20th, 10PM JST: ST stream: nico.ms/lv306172103
no, it's Sep 19th

>Digital Scent Technology Market worth $691 Million by 2020
I can't wait to smell some idols.

SS2, because Bamco is shameless in trying to ride on SS's popularity.

>didn't get anything above a 6th rank reward from the SS lottery

How come I've not seen a SINGLE 8th place?

There's a bunch of retards crying about 9th, but it seems like 8th would be the shit outcome for a normal player.

Ok.

user, you're retarded. Only titty ninjas will make proper use of this technology

Oh shit, you're right.
It's in 25 minutes from now.

I only got one 6th as the highest back at the new year lottery.

>TD livestream


Who cares?

Ayyy, people told me console games were dead. Never give up your dreams, baby.
It's going to be shit isn't it, especially after PS and TD

I just want a PS4 game with ML Shiho.

The person asking. Are you fucking dumb like Mirai?

You're replying to bait.

Baited hard by Makino.

But that would require actual effort from them

BELIEVE IN CHIE.

Hopefully they make a game this time.
SteS.

...

Good meme bro.

Given the time frame, it was developed alongside TD. Now, considering that they likely share development teams, you can assume that it won't be a great game, not because of the team itself, but because of they had to split the time working on each game.

Those uneven scales looks really good, showing the contour of the body.

Chie I hope you don't have a good night.

Well, TD is pretty barebones, so hopefully a lot of the effort went into this instead.
It probably didn't, but I'm going to hope until proven otherwise.

All they need to add to PS are menus and commus anyway to turn it into a Raising Game. I'm kinda salty I bought PS though.

Who gets the first crossover DLC, ML or CG or no one?

It can't be much worse than PS.

You can tell by all the shitposting they are either mad or scared.

When do i get my rank rewards for TD

>comparing a console game to a mobile game
I know this is bait, but this new game could literally be the best game of all time and I really doubt it would mean anything in terms of mobile sales.
It's hard to go lower than rock bottom. However, Yukiho does do a lot of digging, so who knows.

>Who gets the first crossover DLC
If it plays like PS, no one.
Without some form of rival mechanic, crossover DLC of any kind is likely out of the question.

SideM

What if they use the dice rolling mechanic to determine the success of the audition?

>TD until october (2nd half)

Are you prepared for disappointment?

Fuck yeah Amatou!

It can't be worst™

Lovers

Yes.
If it does pretty much anything Platinum Stars did (easy as fuck rhythm game, no commus, little content, incredibly grindy, P-Drops) I probably won't even bother with it.
Hopefully Bamco realizes that having four rhythm games is a dumb idea. Maybe they'll also learn from backlash for the first time in their lives.

>Good Sleep Baby event finally over
If I never hear that song again, it'll be too soon.

>Maybe they'll also learn from backlash for the first time in their lives.

You're cute.

live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv306172103
Stream starting.

>inb4 the same video from the PlayStation conference

It's fun to be hopeful. Maybe this will be the first time in the history of ever they try to fix something.

Thanks, you too.

>first time
Hey, OFA was a thing.

There must be a large contingent of people out there that are still 765 purists, which is only how I can imagine why they keep putting out lackluster console games with multiple mobage around.

>Premium'd

Sorry that was me.

I imagine it's a situation similar to what happened with Final Fantasy XIII and XV. They put too much money and effort into making them to only be able to sell them once.

Yep, backlash isn't useful when in the end the nips will still buy the game anyway like in Ryugu Komachi case.

nvm, Twitch saved me

I actually give them money for their garbage service

Hentai!

This is incredibly subdued.
It really does feel like a minor product launch, just like PS was.

The clock has started ticking again CGkiddies.

Orange pervert.

...

The important thing is to not get our hopes up at all.
It could be another OFA. It could also fucking not be.

Console games are basically passion projects ever since the mobile market became viable.

It just feels like they considered it just as a quick cash grab. Usually on big titles, you announced it from a long time ago, build hypes and then releases it. PS have a very short time from announcement to release, the same as this new game.

New song: ToP!!!!!

I remember they did monthly development diaries and stuff for OFA. PS just sort of... got released.
And now this comes out in just three months.

Well, there's an office at least. Proper 3D environments. So it's at least on par with OFA in that regard.

And... wait what the fuck is this. What the FUCK.

>Same as PS

>is just PS-OFA

>It looks exactly like PS down to the fucking gameplay

Kuroi appears! New rival?

Just like OFA recycled much of its fundamental gameplay mechanics from iDOLM@STER 2, it's expected for Stella Stage to recycle from Platinum Stars.

Also, new rival idol. So maybe it is more like OFA?

Screen it user, i'm at work and can't watch the stream.

KUROI WHAT THE FUCK

>the same game, but with Kuroi and his daughter

NANI GA DANKETSU DA KUDARANAI

...

Looks lame.

FUCK YEAH TALES OF PHANTASIA

>new rival idol.
Leon ALREADY got discarded?

>Literally PS but outside of training camp

I liked the PS package art more.

It's fucking Hitomi.
Same hair. Same hair ornament. Just reversed.

There's some sort of Mario Party lookin' shit in there. Idols moving around a board with spaces.

>島村卯月

Hmm... What's up with Uzuki?

Shut the hell up.

well the new outfit looks like ass
and ToP!!! sounds like ass

Minorin too expensive

MITSUKETE YOUR DREAAAAAAAMMMMM

Literally an island.

!?

I told you

what was with the mocho emotes though, Nu mentioning her aside?

...

It means Uzuki will be our safe harbor when the skies fall and the sun goes down. The one who will stand as the world around her gets flooded.
pay attention

I'm fuckin' telling you, man.
