/fg/ - Falcom General #188

She already is, user

>Switch port for CS1/2
The games run as shit on PS3 and some points on Vita. I doubt Switch can even handle CS3. Unless you want shittier graphics everywhere just for a Switch port.

A rank bimbo at most

No point in making Switch ports when your entire fanbase is on PS4. Extra 4k of sales aren't worth it.

Why are you mean to Estelle? I know you like her, dude. Like all of us. Just show your love.

It's funny they missed the console train and now they lag behind jumping on switch and even the new pc train properly.
Falcom is legit retarded when it comes to business.

My cute wife

Yes god forbid trying to expand their fanbase. This was probably the exact thought process they had back when they stayed on PC while everyone else was makind mad dosh on Playstation.

Yeah, they're like Nokia. They had success and good chances at a moment, but then they missed everything, were always too late

Hoping they won't be bought by Square

They can't just shit out ports, it doesn't take a smart person to understand that. If they focus on ports they'll divert attention from newer games. And they've only recently shown interest in having other companies handle porting.

Switch is stronger than the pos3. It's right next under the vanilla xb1 in strenght.

Ask Gust how much their fanbase expanded thanks to Switch.

...

Not that user, but they shit out ports for their old games all the time back in the day. Ys 3 has a ton of ports, and all of them slightly different music made for each, hell Ys 1 and 2 are probably one of their most ported games ever.

This is a cheap move, user :(

Fuck this shit where is my new season of falcom gakuen.

Yeah and it may run CS1 and 2 kinda decently. What about CS3-4? There's no way they wouldn't put that on Switch as well. That means downgrading it so that overpriced tablet can play it. Falcom can barely program on one console as it is.

user, CS3 isn't exactly pushing the PS4 to it's limits...

The option would still be there for other people, and despite being a downgrade, there's still potential buyers in that platform is what he's saying. If you're self aware enough to know that the switch will require downgrading to run the games, you can just buy another one, while Falcom gets a few more sales through a port for those who are ok with it.

The Switch can handle this, I'm sure.

Falcom aren't great at optimising, its not exactly a new thing. In Sen 3 entering parts of Crossbell makes the frames drop a lot, and Ordis is even worse.

>tries his whole life to suck up to his dad who treats him like shit
>d-dad could you make some time to p-perhaps meet my classmates? I'd like you to meet my-
>NO my foolish idiot of a son why arent you Rufus you mixed filthy mongrel
>Dad turns out to be an selfish, foolish sociopath, arrests him personally and forced to take over the reigns of Albarea family at only 17
>brother turns out to be the absolute opposite of what he taught and preached to Jusis
>actually brother turned out to not be brother at all, and only played along as Helmuts son to use the Albarea names power
>his retarded nep pet dies
Well things could be worse, at least he's not ugly like Machias.

>Are you serious? Imagine if Sky was released in PS2 in Japan at 2004. When the JRPG craze was on a high point. Things would have been completely different user.
user, the 6th gen was when the console market began to die in Japan. Publishers merged, developers closed doors, and mobile gaming start to slowly creep into the forefront. The only franchises that continued to stay afloat were those from big name publishers like Nintendo, Sony, and Square Enix. Besides, Falcom DID try to break into the PS2 market with a few ports here and there. None of them were particularly successful.

God bless your wisdom user

>CS3 IS TOO POWERFUL FOR THE SWITCH
Like I know most of Falcom's fanbase these days are Sonyponys but come on boys. Falcom are either desperately sucking Sony dick in hopes of a buyout, or they're retarded and not milking a cashcow.

Gust games are fucking ass and only for incredibly niche fanbase like yurifags.

Mana Khemia 3 when?
At least Falcom is better off than Gust.

Rufus didn't really need to play along since Albarea did that himself. He feared the ridicule he'd get if people found out he got cucked, so he threated Jusis like a bastard son, even though it was with the woman he loved, but acted as if Rufus was his legitimate son.

I thought Seraphna was Xseed's bitch.

Do you /fg/ think falcom knows when they will end Kiseki?
Or will they make Kiseki games as long as the games sell well, and create new countries, issues involving Ouroboros, etc?

>for incredibly niche fanbase
Yet the sale numbers of Gust games are comparable with those of Falcom games.

>yurifags
Confirmed for not playing the games.

Kondo already stated they know the ending of the series, so yes, they know about it. We may possibly still get extra material or some spin off games after it's all over.

Oh, wow. She really is going apeshit in the FFXV discussions, has been for a while now. Now she's pissed because people are cancelling preorders since it got cracked already and no one said anything about denuvo until now.

Alright, great news, thanks user.

I don't like yuri at all but I liked Ateliers Dusk and Arland trilogies.

Not really Falcom related mate. Go make a /v/ thread if you want to talk about people being angry.

That post doesn't constitute "going apeshit." Why is Veeky Forums so fucking retarded when it comes to women with something to say?

because women are like children

Because user doesn't like Falcom games and prefers talking about drama.

More play along as in "OK, I'll tolerate you" as Helmut was the start of Rufus disdain for nobles.

You can apply this to most of this general desu. Most people here are only for kiseki and shitposters are here for the drama.

So for the people who've played the leaked zero translation, how good/decent/bad is it?

it's fine.

Bets on Falcom being able to give Jusis a happy, conclusive end? A shame he won't show up again in future games, though.

There's not much to talk about on other games though. I even posted as i played along on Ys, but the stories are self contained and pretty simple, and i'm not going to waste much time talking about gameplay, unless i run into some extremely annoying situation, or unfair scenario, like that piece of shit flying dragon in Ys Oath.
Kiseki on the other hand has way more stuff to be talked about, and lore.

Who's to say he won't? We've had plenty of characters from previous games making an apperance, or getting mentioned. Considering how Kondo likes Jusis as well, even better chance.

It's okay, especially with fixed PC port.

I'm going to FUCK Musse and there's NOTHING you can do about it!

Falcom could have really built themselves a domestic and foreign audience on the PS2.

playable, but noticeably bad at times. if you have good comprehension you can instantly reorganize the shit that's being said and it will make sense, but if you're a dumbass you may lose your mind trying to make sense of whats being said at times. i say "at times" because sometimes it's perfect and sometimes it's borderline nonsense but the key points are always there so just use your head and you'll love it.

>self contained and pretty simple
This. Play one you've played them all.

It's pretty ok, just make sure to organize what they're saying in your head in case the wording is weird.
It will also serve as a good comparison point once the Geofront patch gets released, so you can play that one if you want to check the differences. Keep in mind, an user here is making updates for the PC version of Zero Japanese, so if you want, use that one instead. The links are in the extra pastebin.

Ofcourse FF15 was going to have Denuvo. Are people retarded?

Is there a way to stop the text from auto scrolling? Sometimes it takes a few seconds to make sense of what they are trying to say but the game skips to the next sentence. It wasn't like that in the previous games.

They're all still super fun to play though, and Origin did have a more involved story, and plenty of references to 1 and 2, but even then, it's nothing to write home about.

I AM INVINCIBLE!

>and only for incredibly niche fanbase

Sounds like Cold steel fanbase.

Or is she?

>that one interviewer that practically begged Kondo to revive Millium for Jusis
Our guy.

The Kiseki fanbase in general you mean. Ys is more well known.

Reanalace is OTP.

Cold Steel saved if this pairing gets a happy ending.

it's great

>tfw you'll never listen to this song for the first time ever again
youtube.com/watch?v=6Mk0yil3Y9s

It's a dominion isn't it? They all have their own personal airships.

Zero Estelle is terrible. How could they miss her that bad

>[PSV] Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana (Falcom, 07/21/16) – 43,753 (New)

Zero Estelle is okay.
Zero Joshua is bad.
But Kevin...

Sales != reputation

I'm not sure if you're being ironic or not.

Evo Estelle is great though

SEYANA

Take Gaius with you when you speak to the priest in Ymir.

Can't beat the cock.

jeeze, being around ries has made him put on a few pounds

>Ries: still looks normal
>Kevin: gained 30 pounds
that girl has the metabolism of a hummingbird

...

>calvard is set in the past for the first game
>second game there's a mix of past and current time
How does that make you feel?

You never know user.

intermission game like Sky 3rd, after CS4 but before Calvard set in Remiferia with a newbie squire investigating some shit

Doubtful, they're pushing the timeline forward unless the Time Sept-Terrion gets involved.

THANK YOU

>The people eaten by Aion Alpha's space manipulation come back after the Azure tree vanishes

I guess that makes sense, the GM is not fond of killing, so they probably made it a weapon that throws people into a stasis dimension, or something like that. Reminds me of the recluse cube a bit. I wonder if chunks of the fortress itself will pop up, or if it's just returning living organisms.
