Do you think fan service improves a game or is it just useless filler?

>any game that is reliant on the fanservice is irredeemable trash
coughshantaecough

Depends if the game is good or not. But in general good games with fan service are kino.

don't forget Senran Kagura

I can assure you that OP's game is good.

How did this get past SNOY?

it's still relatively tame compared to most other anime games

Aye but you play the average SRW for the latter kind don't you, without the cross-series interaction you've just got a basic SRPG. Endless Frontier is the only one I know that's heavy on the lewd but that game would have been great either way

And that's what made it good. A healthy amount of fanservice that isn't over the top yet still shows cute girls as nature intended.

>Healthy amount.
There's barely any lewd content, user. Hell, there is barely any violent content despite their entire premise either. I am still mad.

Making video games is difficult and expensive, Compile obviously can't afford to make more than a couple dozen CGs or have actual depictions of gore like the text claims there is.

>or have actual depictions of gore like the text claims there is
You do know that gore gets heavily cut down in Japan for games right?

Why is it so good? Though they could have toned it down with the constant game over choices.

All they had to do was try harder though. The very first cutscene in the game is nothing but text, voices and a 3D model falling to the ground, but it is legitimately well done. Sets the tone for the story well, but it never really pays off afterwards.

90% of the bad ends that I came across after that were literally just 3-5 sentences at best without much imagination. Literally choose your own adventure "The giant ants crawl towards you, and eat you. The end." levels of bad.
Hell, all the massive twists at the end get nothing but blood splatter effects and hand waving text, including the reveal about the fate of a certain character.

That being said, there are still really good ones to be found in the game and overall it was worth buying. I'm not that negative.

>90% of the bad ends that I came across after that were literally just 3-5 sentences at best without much imagination. Literally choose your own adventure "The giant ants crawl towards you, and eat you. The end." levels of bad.

This so much. More than half of the endings felt so lazy that I wonder what even the point of including them was.

personally, i cant play it yet so seeing threads like these makes me happy.
also, shilling compa will get more money for quality games

Useless filler at best most of the time. I still generally enjoy it.

In all honesty the game is at most 6/10. Gameplay itself was okay at best and the story is incredibly lackluster. Music is surprisingly bad for a JRPG and there's only a handful of CGs. I came expecting a Corpse Party-tier thriller and left with disappointment.

>Scenario writer breathes this kind of fucked up shit
>New battle system that fixes a number of complaints against Nep's system making the battle system stand out in a very good way. TriAct+Knockbug is right up there as far as JRPG battle systems go
>Game feels more like an adventure than just going into a dungeon, doing a thing then fucking off elsewhere as you constantly move forwards, towards your goal.
>Event CGs focussed more on the death than the fanservice elements

Too much fanservice is shit. If every female character dresses like a slut you get desensitized to it. Do have to do it slowly, bit by bit. Have your main girl dress in a regular oufit and then 20 hours into the game show her bathing but everything is covered with steam. 30 hours in show her in a bikini. 60 hours in finally go full out show a sexy CG where she's almost completely nude. That's the patrician way.

The hacks are also breddy gud.

Truth

There's barely any fan service in Death End besides the glitch mode, some cg art, and the swimsuits. Otherwise it's on the lower end for fanservice in Compile Heart games, and also the darkest game they made.

>>Event CGs focussed more on the death than the fanservice elements

some are more fucked up than others

the only decent hack I have found useful near the end of the game was Billiards since some enemies take a lot of damage when getting sucked into a hole. Which is good because some chapter 11 enemies are fucking damage sponges

Attached: Death end re;Quest_20190327052246.jpg (1920x1080, 263K)

IRIS was one hell of a fight. Three (3) forms and they take damage like bosses in Korean MMOs.

They literally had Corpse Party's scenario writer on board. You knew what you were getting before you started the game.

I haven't gotten that far but some of the random dudes felt like sponges.

On a side note, I hate how the only physical Sun element attacker (Al) has shitty gimmicks for her attacks

Arata's hacks was a mixbag for me. I only used the summons since the enemy
AI always attacked them and was free HP and SP. It wasn't until I got the code that ups corruption by 50% I used that shit all the time to spam glitch mode especially since lategame the sun-moon-star triangle damage effects start to really matter on hard.

Go grind in the previous dungeons. I had all my characters at level 95+ by the time I got to her.

shina best girl

I really think I was underleveled for that fight because the moment I saw "demise" it was a instant fucking wipeout.

I will actually go out of my way to not buy the game and call it shit.

fanservice is the ultimate pleb filter. it keeps plebs out of the fanbase that would otherwise drag it down.

The fanservice has to be effective and catered to me via huge breasts and slutty outfits. If that's the case, the game in question is absolutely kino.

>Rorona's skirt
This guy understands the true meaning behind panty shots in games. You work for it, you find it, then you have the proudest most powerful fap that makes you feel fulfilled as its not just panties you're seeing but the time, effort and numerous attempts all culminating in a success that you feel proud to accomplish such a task.

Alicization Lycoris looks interesting even with no custom character to our knowledge.

Does it matter if straight line shots are close or far? I can't tell if it effects damage.

>Alicization Lycoris
Day-one pre FUCKING order. And here I thought my PS4 pro would be relegated to blu-ray player forever. Between Death End Request, Shin Sakura Taisen, and Lycoris it's safe to say it's still the place to play.

It isn't out yet, but beta testers can already play it.

Just skip the anime and play the games. You'll enjoy the franchise better that way.

useless bait shit for underage faggots.
its only there to distract the player from the fact that it lags any kind of quality apart from it.

thats right
thats what peak performance looks like

I tend to agree, though I have been enjoying Alicization and except for certain parts GGO arc was pretty fun which is why GGO Alternative was even better but yeah, the games have done a solid job more so than the anime and are far more worthwhile. The raw amount of content in HR alone is crazy. I love it.

yes, hacker's memory is definitely worth it. more digimon + more battle modes + more nokia, what's not to like?

SAO broke her

I personally think it's pointless because i'd rather just go look at porn if I want to see titties. scantily clad does nothing for me, and 99% of the time it takes away from the game itself. Senran kagura is an excellent example. mediocre musou game, inoffensive, but every time you use a special move, or get hit too much, or hit someone ELSE too much, there's a fucking cutscene with a transformation. it's stupid as shit and detracts from the overall experience heavily.

Kawahara needs her to be sidelined since otherwise she can solve problems with Kirito meaning the new girl each arc is pointless. Mother's Rosario shows what happens when she gets to be the leading lady and it's her back to her Aincrad arc tier levels while Kibo is sidelined.
>Tfw arc after Alicization has Liz and Silica get some time as leading ladies without Kirito
It's a good feel lads. A very good feel.

I wish there were more people like you.

With your dick

Rebirth 3 is. Or 2.

You can turn those off with ease and the game becomes that much smoother.
>do that in Bullet Girls
>No cut-in means you can use the recoil of sniper rifles to hit two clothing sections one after the other before the enemy hits the ground.
or my favorite thing in BG Phantasia
>Play as Aki, partner is Remi.
>Line up a shot and fire 3 rockets at an enemy
>Watch it fly up with each hit

The combos and crazy shit you can do without cut-ins is amazing. Turn it off and you get a better game.

Is this Hollow Fragment? Never watched SAO but I was totally down for singleplayer MMO, especially in-setting, and I was having a grand time until my visits back to town turned into long VN segments about craving my Kirito cock despite not actually being Kirito the rest of the time

I still haven't finished Hollow Realisation because of that same reason. I want to finish for Premiere and her voice lines, but I just don't have the energy to deal with Kirito bullshit anymore.

any more would be too racy for SNOY

Fanservice doesnt matter in this equation, its literally inoffensive, what matters is the form being delivered, let me give an example

>lewd alternate or main costume
It doesnt fuck with the game's flow, literally just eye candy, harmless, and can look nice

>lewd cutscene for the sake of itself
You are taking the player's control away just to show me an animation that makes me want to go fap, absolutely worthless

>ACTUAL STORY cutscene, but has some lewd imagery in it
Harmless, we needed that cutscene for the story sake, the extra eye candy at worst might ruin the mood if handled poorly, but that is hardly the case.

>Super animation has lewd stuff
No problem, its the super attack, you want some BANG with it, being lewd has its own charm.

>super animation is too long with lewd stuff
You can see the problem.

A shitty game will never be shitty because of the fanservice stuff and a good game will never be good because of it unless its a porn game. I particularly like it but in truth it adds or takes nothing from a game objectively.

But we got to see Clea's butt.

Fanservice can improve an already good game. It cannot save a bad game.

Do you think he got to eat Ninomiya's puss after they all got out?

Why is she so cute?

Fanservice is only good when done well.
A lot of games just throw it left and right and it becomes a nuisance instead of a "service".
Good examples of fanservice to me would be free lewd costumes like swimsuits you can equip and play the game with, optional lewd custcene that you had to work for by leveling up a characters relationship system, or when its actually tied to gameplay like clothes being ripped apart after taking damage.
Overall I would say just leave the fanservice as a optional feature for those who want to see it.

Don't care if the game is actually good. If fanservice is all the game has going for it though, then it can fuck off. Read a doujin, play a H-game or watch a hentai instead.

Kamidori Alchemy Meister and Sengoku Rance, two actual porn games are better than most of the kusoge fanservice jrpgs that are shat out these days.

then just go play your game. no need to be a pissy piece of shit if others like this game, jezz...

Kamidori was structured so well around the crafting it's ridiculous, you can even get lewds hours earlier than you're meant to through the onsen you can construct (recipe only available at a tile of one of the maps) and it's not out of place at all

Neither.

I think the way to improve the game is to fuck the fans up the ass and make the game's characters look like shit.
