Spiral of Erebos is still better
Xanadufags btfo

I like it better when it was called Valley of The Kings.

>SC is widely regarded as the best game
>actually have the worst final dungeon theme of all games
To think a game this good and being sandwiched by Hollow Light of the Sealed Land and Phantasmagoria will certainly get a good song but
>Axis Pillar

Hahaha holy fuck it's perfect

this is the final dungeon music tho

Someone tweet this to hatsuu already

her mental illness can only take so much abuse

It's interesting how she totally dissapeared when the new social media person came along.

someone did what the government can't, they took the crazy person's phone away so they 'd stop saying dumb shit

Zero at 55%

I'm almost feeling like Zerker is working on it solo now.

>claiming solo responsibility
Hi Zerker ;)

I wish I was him just kidding i don't

>99%
>releases a beta patch
>xseed buys the translation
like clockwork

>bought zero TL
>edit for 5 years
>release it on Steam
>xseedfags will still praise them for being the best localization company ever!

No other publisher would care enough about their fans to put that much time into editing.

>Main script total: 1600498/1629086 = 98.25%+

>bracer back then
wew lad

Well, A to Z and Doomsday Trance are final boss themes

Liber Ark's theme is still better than Phantasmagoria and Reverie Corridor.

Schera is fucking lazy.

>better than Phantasmagoria

2 hours until XSEED BTFO

user, that's a stream showing off NIS' own internal-developed games, not games they are publishing. That's what the February stream is for.

>NISAfags know nothing about their favorite company
Every time

So will YS VIII on the Switch be compatible with the Labo?

With fishing

Liber Ark has a great theme but only outside the structures and tunnels.

Calvard when?

Don't fall for the Sen III is good meme.

b-b-but /fg/ said teacher Rean is a completely different person!

The plot is formulaic and the infodumps are dumb but what's this tita-agate meme? It's not like anyone said they'd be dating.

I already saw this post.

What did Tita and Agate even do besides pander to us sky fags?

Completely different doesn't necessarily mean super interesting. He's just more confident and being a teacher suits him. And well, anything's better that the self-loathing immature mess we had to put up with before.

...

>Rean is still the protagonist and still boring as hell
That's disappointing, they've had 3 games now and he still sucks? Hopefully they learn from this and demote whoever was in charge of writing him.

Decorated shit is still shit, user.

...

...

Blame smartphone fags, anyone who actually played would know that Rean is the same as ever.

He still sucks in that anons opinion, he's a hit with kids who are into that kind of character. Kondom himself admitted that they changed the writing for Sen to be more appealing to children, and considering how well Sen has been selling I don't think any demotions will be incoming.

How can one creature be this cute?

He sucks because you're not the target audience. Japanese fanbase loves Rean so if anything the writer's getting a raise.

Nice pasta, retard

Agate corrupted her.

Prove it wrong smart guy.

what if rean surpasses estelle in the popularity poll? He was already number 3 and tied neck a neck with olivert before CSIII released.

Isn't he number 1 now? pretty sure I saw the polls and Rean boi was numba 1

Orbal gearl is in serious need of a freaking cockpit. Seriously, who thinks leaving the rider exposed is a good idea?

The writing hasn't downgraded that hard, the problem is the characters are not as endearing or interesting as before, so the writing related to them suffers along with it.

I personally don't have that much of a problem with them, but i can see why others do. At least now they're finally jumping into the last act and we can move on from it.

That would just prove that the Japanese fanbase is full of retards and that Kiseki is about to enter the death spiral with Calvard.

I don't think oldfags can hold on any longer. Rean will definitely surpass everyone.

OMG SEN 3 BY NISA HAPPENING ON STREAM

that was a poll for CSIII characters, isn't wasn't for the wider kiseki.

He'll be taking his rightful place, nostalgiafags have kept shitstelle propped up for too long!

That poll was only for Sen III and not overall

Apparently everyone seeing how Alisa's looks.

That hat looks silly.

You aren't making much sense. The characters don't magically exist and downgrade the writing. The downgraded writing created these characters and used them.

Can't blame them when a big chunk of her popularity is due to the new outfit. No one in their right mind would hide it.

The Japanese are literally the main fanbase for the games and account for 70% of the sales. Pretty sure their tastes are more qualified/important than the tastes of some butthurt EOP nostalgiafags that obsess over "m-muh precious Estelle" and barely account for 15% of the series' sales.

Nippon Ichi's stream was unironically better than this thread.

Wait I read this copypasta before

...

Kinda hard not to be when people are trying to bait for (You)s.

Also Falcom posted some weird stat images for Adol and Dogi.

And it's still true.

It's also true for SC except last point.

>How many squares make up the battle map?

That's true, they're still retarded though.

last points*

Uu-uhmm, three hundred thousand?

*last 3 points

>It's also true for SC except for all the points.

SC didn't have Divine Knights, dumbass.

>sc
>dks

>Play SC because /fg/ said it was good
>Entire plotline is "Oh no, Enforcer!"
>Okay next chapter
>"Oh no, Enforcer!"
>Shit finally happens in the final chapter but it's the dumbest shit ever that completely ruins Loewe's character

What ruined Loewe's character? He finished his arc just fine before erebonia's curse shat on everything.

17x17
>not remembering this

This Nis dude is trying way too hard to be funny.
And both games shown so far have been shit.

>Play Zero because /fg/ said it was good
>Entire plotline is "Oh no, Mafia!"
>>Okay next chapter
>"Oh no, Mafia!"
>Shit finally happens in the final chapter but it's the dumbest shit ever that completely ruins Loewe's character

>Kevin and Kloe return and act the exact same way they did 2 years ago despite the creator promising they wouldn't
>Lloyd is still the protagonist and still boring as hell
Don't fall for the Ao is good meme.

>wake up in the morning because that's what adults with lives do
>skim through thread
>it's literally nothing but bait and shitposting overnight again
Why do braindead yuropoors have to make this thread utter shit every single night? If you don't like the games then just fuck off

This is the dumbest thing I've ever read. Sasuga dumb bimbo no.2

Let's talk about Rean's sheath instead.

Posting the same pasta fifteen times does not make it funnier, you know?
