it has anime gameplay

Irony as being something humorous is a cultural thing. It comes from the British self-deprecating humor that the rest of the western world partly inherited over the past 300 years.

It's bad.

>Asians really must have some kind of genetic continentwide autism if this is how they think people act
this is not true. Only nips otaku think like that in their degenerate mind.

Weeb humor that involves characters doing stupid dances or awkward posing.
Body animations look like shit and are stiff as fuck.
Cutscenes where nobody's mouth moves during a voiceover.
English dialogue reads nothing like how westerners would speak, especially in a western setting.

And where did they get those ideals from?

Japanese rarely experiment and once they find a wining formula, it’s all about repeating it over and over again. Sushi chefs pride themselves in making the same dish millions of times. Americans are more comfortable with discarding stale ideas.

Some posts makes me Think Yea Forums needs a like button instead of (you)s

Oh gee user. i love playing a western video game called HAMLET

If that's the case, how come Western developers are far less willing to come up with innovative game mechanics/ideas? With Japan you get so much out-there shit like Katamari Damacy, Killer 7, weird little games like Chulip etc...

This.

LSD, Katamari, Killer7, Viewtiful Joe, PN03 and Jumping Flash were not 'tried and tested' ideas even in nipland.

Nah, a lot of the games I'm referring to aren't really "tried and tested". Killer 7 or Katamari Damacy didn't have a pre-established formula, though they inevitably borrow elements from them

I have a couple, and they are all 100% factually correct.

I can't into homm-likes anymore. it's so much damn clicking for those fucking resources. I only ever liked the innovations I think it was part... 4 or 5? Where capturing a town also automatically captured all the resource spots in the region? Maybe I should replay that one.

How is that even relevant? Heroes series has always had its own mechanics that take into account things like positioning, like a lance-wielding knight on horseback dealing more damage the higher the distance they travel to their target.

That image is about interface design, so what are you even arguing against?

No. You (or that person) made the claim that the Japanese only depend on formulas and very rarely experiment. I made the case that the most well-known and acclaimed experimental games are often Japanese. I have since re-structured the argument so that "Western options" are irrelevant.

If you don't understand a word like flanking, or how the mechanic works, why even bother replying?

These obvious strawmans don't qualify as an argument.

>I made the case that the most well-known and acclaimed experimental games are often Japanese.
How so? Many 'ground-breaking' Japanese games were in fact shameless ripoff of older, less known western games.

Survival horror? Alone in the Dark laid the foundation for the entire genre (fixed camera angles, tank controls, limited resources, etc.) that people now attribute to imitators like Resident Evil.

Pretty much every thing people associate with traditional jrpgs like FF, DQ and SMT was copied from western rpgs: the party-based combat system right down to specific spells and classes/jobs, the overworld, even the tradition of getting an airship, etc.

Actually they are 100% sharp analysis that are relevant to OP's question.

>If you don't understand a word like flanking, or how the mechanic works, why even bother replying?
Again, what are you even arguinst? That image is about interface design. The fuck does that have to do with flanking? Even if you added flanking in older Heroes games, the interface would stay exactly the same, since the interface already supports attacking an enemy from any direction (e.g. from the sides, front or back) with a single mouse click.

A). Stark contrasts are between innovating of genres and "experimental games", which seems some niche …
B). Especially condensing the subtopic to specific features – living simulation, character action combos (and similar abilities), mobility – Western gaming has so much more fundamental implementations, and cruxes.

More so with nips. It’s a cultural thing, they love formulas for all sorts of things: cuisine, rock gardens, game shows, hospitals, etc. A very organized culture.

quantity =/= quality

No, I'm just pointing out that the Japanese are generally known for being more willing to be experimental than their western counterparts in videogames.

It just seems more experimental to an outsider

The game features cameos from multiple characters from other games

Japanese games only have that reputation because for most of the history of gaming, they were much more popular and better known than equivalent western games. Western games having a prominent mainstream presence is a relatively recent phenomenon that only began with the xbox360 generation.

But more popular obviously does not equal better.

Name a western RPG where you kill a god.

The only Japanese developers with literal worldwide clout/recognizability are Nintendo and maybe Square.

The west produced; GTA, Minecraft, Elder Scrolls, every popular FPS, both Blizzard flagships.

There isn't really a contest imo, I love a lot of japanese games, primarily console rpgs, MGS and ninty games, but the west has japan beat, and it isn't even fair. Hell the US alone has Japan beat.
If we don't go for popularity then we go for quality and detail, because you cannot argue "fun" or other subjective shit. Western games have been more open-ended for a long time now, which requires provision for the choices a player makes, that requires far more detail and work. Jap devs are notorious for awful cookie cutter plots, (with awful plot devices and linear progression, low brow writing even for the target age group) I think some anime have really good narratives; so I'm not some pro-western camo-jacket wearing PUA.

you're talking absolute shite, give me examples of western developers taking chances and making weird games like LSD, Vib Ribbon, Seaman etc. etc.

also the western dialogue in that image is abysmal

What the hell are you talking about? In terms of game mechanics, interface, dialogue etc. most JPRG's are stuck in the late 1980s and early 1990s. I remember an interview with some western developer (Sid Meier, I believe), where he outright states that Japanese developers, when ripping off the West, thought that various choices made due to technical limitations at that time where actually intentional, and thus stuck with tchem.
You can praise Japanese devs for many things, but innovation and depth are not one of them.

Despite being a story heavy game, the gameplay is good.

So could you name some jrpgs that don't have any fantasy nor any sci-fi elements? I'm talking about rpgs like the Jagged Alliance series, Mount & Blade and Kingdom Come: deliverance.

I don't see how you can argue with a straight face that jrpgs have more diverse settings than wrpgs.

Americans founded the video game industry, so practically every major genre started out as a ‘big chance’ taken by western devs.
Literally every Elder Scrolls game post Dagerfall.
I was just noting a trivial difference, you’re proving my point. In all the Japanese games you listed, you kill the God at the end, not some lesser deity.

"If they have RPG in the title, comparisons must be warranted! Gameplay mechanics don't mean shit when there's choices!"

Japan has the west beat in so many areas of the medium, it's not even funny. Whether it be action games, fighting games, especially RPG's, general quality of game music.

It's not a contest for the reasons you might think

Why would you use Thief as an example of good map design? Every map is a fucking maze made so that you get lost within 5 minutes and end up running blindly in circles for an hour until you luck into the end of the level.

And no, Arcanum is steampunk fantasy and Freedom Force is about superheroes. Both are distinct subgenres.

Neither of those are high fantasy. In Chrono Trigger, Lucca lives in a pre-industrial time period, yet she has a gun and time machine. FF12 literally has X-Wings.

Wow, super original theme.
Is that the only book you've ever read user? Or was it just the movies?

>>Tries desperately to shit on persona, yet willingly leaves out the depth that demons bring into battles.
What depth? The image is comparing basic tactical options. Demons in Persona still conform to the same simplistic menu-based systems as normal party members.

You find simple maze games already too complex. A game that REALLY tests your matter is obviously beyond your reach. I still dont understand how I so easily defeated the 3rd final mission 5 years ago. It's impossible now.

>I remember when gaming was as hobby primarily excercized by the top 10% intelligent kids in class.
I'm guessing you weren't part of that 10% by the way you butchered that sentence.

>subjective
Arguing a negative. Objectivity is reasonable because a). genes are some 99.5% similar, and b). correlatives such as mastery, freedom, and socialization are existent.

Good point. Atlus is especially egregious when it comes to lack of innovation. Catherine is the only game which had even a modicum of originality.
Vivec, Dagoth, Dagon and Jyggylag are ‘gods’ in a practical sense.
Atlus has used the same demon mechanics for about 20 years now.

It's good.

Yet that image also leaves out the intricacies of both FFVI and Persona's battle systems whilst talking up those other games.

But Chakravartin has nothing to do with the judaochristian mythos.

Quite true, RE just appealed to the masses because it was a "horror" game that had manageable levels of horror elements in it, so that even the normiest of normies could enjoy the game without being scared shitless.

Western survival horror is generally mechanically superior, gameplay wise, if it's not riddled with jumpscares that is.

None of this means the games aren't high fantasy, because they are.

Freedom Force, just like Mutants and Masterminds, has science fiction all over it. With fantasy as well. Slapping superheroes on it doesn't mean it's no longer science fiction and fantasy.

Steampunk is science fiction.

But Xenogears is about freeing god from being a battery.

Yes.

No, the Dragon is an aspect of Akatosh. But so are you.

All the menus and dialogue are in Japanese

If Skies of Arcadia isn't steampunk, neither is Arcanum.

>But Xenogears is about freeing god from being a battery.
This is just pedantry.
You fight a machine who has taken over the power of god and turned herself into a god. That's functionally the same thing as fighting a (corrupted) god.

If you want to play pattern memorization, just play bullet hells. Also, MGS was a much, much better game than Thief could ever hope it was.

I used to be an unironic weeb but anime/weeb games went from fun to cringeworthy real damned fast.

Arcanum is very much steampunk, because it's set in a fantasy version of the industrial revolution, and it explores typical steampunk themes like the effect of industrialization on living conditions.

Skies of Arcadia is about...a floating pirate world with futuristic airships and other high-tech pieces of technology. It has nothing to do with Steampunk apart from some superficial aspects

only disc 1 was good when gameplay was really innovative, however disc 2 was full on shit-movie cutscenes. I give it a 8/10 for nostaslgia reasons and the half-decent control scheme (coincidentally its the ONLY mgs wiwth a passable control scheme)

>it explores typical steampunk themes.

Oh, I didn't know killing a god that wants to destroy all life because he sees it as suffering was a traditional steampunk theme.

Arcanum is basically FF6: Isometric version.

the final boss is god or an allegory for god

What part of 'fantasy version of the industrial revolution' don't you understand? It's a fantasy game, but the themes the game explores are all rooted in the steampunk genre.

>Arcanum is basically FF6: Isometric version.
It's not, because like Skies of Arcadia, FF6 is aso a game where the steampunk setting is merely superficial windows dressing. Steampunk doesn't just simply mean that machines are powered by steam (or some other newly discovered resource that fulfils the same role as steam). Steampunk is about tapping into the particular mindset and cultural climate that existed during that part of the Victorian era.

You have to be a massive imbecile to think that FF6's world building is even remotely on par with Arcanum's.

>he actually needs to exert effort to write a sentence
Oh boy. I bet you felt really smart when you managed to draw a map of the game.

It CAN be helped.

It's so tiring to see "a cute, gentle princess/lady character... but actually she's fucking nuts and she makes this face!"
Part of what made Hotline Miami great was that you weren't exactly sure what was happening. Jacket is a sociopath, but you only realize that after you've completed the game.
In anime they boil it down to:
>OKAY NOBODY SEES ME, NOW I CAN TAKE OFF MY LIMITER
>AHHH IM SUCH A PSYCHO BITCH I MOAN AND MAKE AN AHEGAO THINKING OF BURNING KITTENS AHHH IM CUMMING OHHH.

user, you're confusing what a psychopath and a sociopath is.

Your examples aren't games. We are talking about games here. I could also complain about Western TV Shows, but that would be irrelevant.
>you only realize that after you've completed the game
I realized it when I saw the trailer of the game. I guess you just didn't realize because there was no animation of him running around like a psycho shooting people and throwing bats in people's faces.
Also, there is a difference between a sociopath and a psychopath, and some of your examples aren't psychopaths.

Eh, maybe you're right. Though I think Jacket wouldn't be a killer like that if Beard didn't die the way he did.

Okay, I admit I don't have game examples as much as anime ones.

>it's fun
>it doesn't look like trash
>it doesn't focus entirely on social politics

High fantasy isn't high magic. High fantasy is when a story takes place in a world that isn't or isn't like ours.
Ivalice is not our Earth and does not share our history. Take a look at this map and compare it to ours. FF12 is High Fantasy. Like an archetypical example of high fantasy.
Chrono Trigger is too.

Sure, but in this particular case, those games also fall within the science fantasy subgenre, which combine sci-fi and fantasy elements. Why would you be in denial about this?

What game is above Planetscape?

>RPG where you play as a vampire
They're so rare that you could have just googled vampire rpg and you would have coem across it.

It's Bloodlines

>Why would you be in denial about this?
I never denied it.
