They'll 100% add a Switch version by then.

good thing i'm buying the PC version which will have a blackscreen bug that erases hours of progress

Does this mean the localization is effectively getting close to the Japanese release date?

>tfw canned Vita port
I love my DRPGs on handhelds, and no, Switch isn't an option I like it set up in the dock spot too much

How was Coven 1 anyway?

Yes.

Yes.

>spoiler
That's just laziness. Handheld mode is great for this kind of rpg, if you try it you'll never want to go back.

It was a fun ride. Not the most well designed dungeon crawler and enemy encounters get boring quick because you can autobattle everything except bosses even on the hardest difficulty without many problems but it had a lot of cool mechanics, interesting worlds, great music, and a surprisingly enjoyable story made up of several plot lines told through the main cast, the dungeons your puppets explore, and even the achievements that all converge towards the end.

What the fuck? Why? It's not like delaying it will make it any better.

nice art

Why not? With such a long delay they can easily make lots more content and recycle less from the first game.

Yeah, "fun".

Gotta make it compliant to "global" standards.

Dumb /pol/tard.

Do not lewd loli or auntie Dronya

didn't know they planned to make a sequel
i really enjoyed refrain and will definitely buy this one too

They need to improve the gameplay a ton. I'm currently playing through it right now but mainly staying for the story at this point. Normal attacks just mow everything down and only bosses require even a tiny bit of strategy. The facets need to have their own donum and the cost of them should scale to the amount of puppets in the coven. I'm a huge EO fan and they should really take notes from it in order to build a proper dungeon crawler. The base foundation is there but it needs a lot of work. There needs to be more skill customization and ways to build your characters. Leveling up should be something to look forward to. Normal attacks need their power reduced. The equipment system also needs improvement. Harada's art is great as always but there needs to be more facets total and available at the start of the game.

complying with sudden censorship standards most likely

I figured a sequel is coming, since I believe LoR was NIS' first attempt at making a proper DRPG, and there's no way they're stopping at just that.
But I hope Galleria adds more meaningful changes to gameplay and has better balance, and not just tells a new story using the same gameplay mechanics.
But from the looks of it so far, the combat system and the classes didn't change much.

Over the target

just save frequently

The voice actress of this character is one of my favorite in eroges.

>Leveling up should be something to look forward to.
I'm an EO fan too, and I understand where you're coming from, but having played a fair share of Disgaea games, I'm afraid you're asking for the impossible.
>Normal attacks need their power reduced.
>Normal attacks just mow everything down
>I'm currently playing through it right now
You must not be far into the game yet, because, while you may mow down the random encounters with just auto-attacking, sure, the melee attackers are severely underpowered against bosses. I.e. they do magnitudeS less damage than Donum users. And their only saving grace is building them into high crit chance and multi-hit, praying to RNGods they'd score a critical gore on the boss.

just as good

I've been a Disgaea fan since the beginning but those are different kind of games to put it simply. I'm at the Umbra towers and I basically just buff and reinforce attack with my shinobushi and it usually works well for bosses. There absolutely needs to be some way to customize your pacts and choose your donum. Either through some kind of synthesis or skill tree, I don't care. There's absolutely no personality to the facets other than the passive skills.

As op said, Sony is probably demanding significant censorship.

Oh I don't argue against the latter. Everyone who played the game has been complaining about the active skills being tied to just the pacts and the facets for the most part being passive "stat sticks" you put in the pacts.

I guess I'm late to the party then. I can think of numerous ways to make the coven system work better but yeah, facets need their own unique donum.

those are imo the biggest flaw of the gameplay, but otherwise i enjoy it a lot
i like the idea of pact but everything just feels like it fell short a bit in term of gameplay depth

Wow protag is like a mini-Saber, I want to lick that chest.

Someone please nuke California already, I was waiting for this sequel to at least be intact. Now it's going to get fucked just like Zanki Zero.

Pretty fun and interesting story but the game itself was plagued by your usual NIS bullshit and terrible balancing issues.

The protagonist is the lamp.

Nah, just petition Trump to extend the southern border wall throughout California's borders with other states. They'd sink faster than India.

could be they delay for pc/switch port?

You don't need half a year dev time to censor some anime tiddies, dumb /pol/tards.

Tell that to Senran Kagura 7

It's most likely not a delay for a port, look at senran kagura. Subject matter in game is most likely going to be changed for something tamer.

user there's been a shit load of games that have been "delayed" like this.

like senran and code vein

I hope their contract with Sony doesn't contain a clause that forbids them from or penalizes them for releasing on other platforms before the PlayStation version is released.

>muh senran
If only you could reroute at least part of the blood that goes into your dick to your shriveled brains.

imagine being atheist and a puritan

does that make any sense at all?

They also delayed Senran Kagura ReNewal to remove the intimacy mode on PS4 because it was too much for PS4 apparently.

man what the fuck. i've been out of the loop for SK for a while, im aware of the spin off shit like reflextion, pinball or even the shooter one but for some reason i didn't see the action game
now it makes sense, jesus fucking jimmy criket. what the fuck with sony, also takaki should just consider making it for the switch and pc. the series started on the 3ds first after all

DORONYA SAMA THE FEMINISTS ARE AT IT AGAIN

There is literally no reason to assume this has anything to do with censorship bullshit. Stop listening to Yea Forums dramafags trying to stir shit.

>takaki should just consider making it for the switch and pc. the series started on the 3ds first after all
What this user is saying here: is probably the reason why he just give up and left. It's probably also the reason why Omega Labyrinth Z will forever be stuck in limbo.

Takaki left Marvelous over this.

coven 1 was so fucking good
can't wait for Galleria
I hope we get a PC release though

Luca A BEST

List well designed dungeon crawlers made in recent memory, please. I love me some blobbers, but all this japshit is wearing on me. I'm playing Star Crawlers, at present.

>mfw this website went down for a bit during this conversation
Wew lad

>I hope we get a PC release though
I do too, but I wonder if NIS are going to EVER do another PC port after Disgaea 5 fiasco.

There better be a Switch version.

You know who she reminds me of?

Es.

NIS (Japan) can be pretty competent if given the proper time and budget. They've proven themselves several times.
NISA on the other hand...

I hope the gameplay is better balanced because just making a dozen marginal mazes to fill out support slots so your front line maze can do 40k was a bit simple

Good. Incels lose again.

NISA isn't the ones doing the porting though.

What happened?

...

Huge delays, cut features without prior warning, demo including fully playable rest of the game.
But hey, at least they fixed the evilty translations.

Coven threads were comfy as fuck during its release. I hope it will be the same when this is out.

Dronya-sama and Luca were such good and cute characters.

I know right!
Based Sony-sama for killing weeb virgin incel loser anime game studio! They should just commit sudoku!
All games should follow California's example, like God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn! So progressive! Much core values!

NIS' darker games are generally fantastic for their characters IMO. The focus they've had on witches the past years makes it even better.

Pic related was also a fantastic character

unless SONY somehow got NIS by the balls, they seems to have a pretty good relationship with nintendo recent years. NIS boss even came out and said sony isn't that friendly toward indie devs, but he later apologized for it

What's up with NIS and witches?

NISA literally got bribed by Nintendo and their president had to apologize for blurting it our like a retard.

Hundred knight gameplay looks so shitty to me so I will never play it.

Why don't they just go pc/switch? Pc gaming is pretty big in Japan now thanks to all the vturber constantly shilling pc games.

see

They love fairy tales.

I also like their lighter games.
>tfw we'll never get the sequel localized.

its basically just a hack and slash diablo. I wouldn't call it shit but it's pretty basic.

>someone else played Liar Princess
My fucking brother. I loved it so much.

I liked that they gave the witch that little bit extra development in the side stories from the flowers.

I think they just have a good understanding of what makes bitchy witches fun.

It gets monotonous but some of the bosses are cool. PS4 version helps by streamlining some of the clunkier aspects (weapon line switching) and adding a simple weapon upgrade crafting system.

Attached: DwoKeR5UUAMO8Ol.jpg (476x432, 36K)

I'll get it for PS4 if that's the only option. I know decent JP as well just in case

I haven't. 2D Ico gameplay doesn't seem very fun. And it's not on PC.

>*if this is out
Please fuck off with your dramashitting scaremongering horseshit. You're a cancer to actual game discussion.

Yes, censorship is a real issue, but don't be a fucking jackass about it.

i mean, they're directed by the same guy, who also wrote the scenario for both of them. they could also be set in the same multiverse but i still haven't finished Dusk so I can't be sure.

I think they would have lots of market potential if only they were more polished and fun to play. i played hundred knight basically like a VN, but even in that way there were very few CGs and it lacked any decent cutscene.

It goes way further than just the simple definition of "lewd". Hope you like ryouna, rape, and scat.Everything about the game was just fucked in general. See those little gnomes in a cutesy whimsical land? Wait till you see what they do to captured humans.

Not sure about canon, but Metallia appears as a secret superboss in the post-game. Nothing serious though.

bro, don't shutter his dreams, you could have simply not replied

Everything except gameplay is good.

Then the density of actual vidya discussion in this thread would fall, because of the all the shitposters.

Thought Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk sucked hard and had absolutely terrible dungeon crawling gameplay? Pretty much the only redeeming qualities were the VN segments with waifus?

>waifus
Can't you just say "characters" since that's what you're basically using that word as.

I liked how you could reset your puppets and inherit abilities.

They just need to balance puppets better.

By waifus I obviously meant "scantily clad anime girls" not just any characters.

FUCK this smug piece of shit, I hate him

That's not what waifu means though

That's still not what that word means.

The 15 people parties is just an awful idea that can't be salvaged, but they're trying to anyway.

They nailed the new MC with the lamp. The designers and artists are doing such great work,

I think you mean that they nailed the girl with the MC, right?

I'd like to learn what happens to Luca after the events of the first game, but at the same time, I fear that if she appears in the second game, it would only be under tragic circumstances.

>more generic weebshit "censored"

Good, doing gods work.

I know right!

New girl could be Lucca's daughter, although Lucca had curlier hair so probably not.

Multiple "anime games" with erotic character designs or images have already been delayed, explicitly to be censored.
It is very possible that this is the case yet again.

>tfw it's going to be related to Luca and miscarriage

Discuss it if there is reasonable confirmation it is related to the game. Otherwise it's scaremongering and ruins discussion.

based trips

It's pattern recognition and risk evaluation. I have to brace myself for the worst as to not be utterly devastated later.

Of course the worst part about this whole deal is that the game could very well end up being censored, and we'd all be none the wiser and never know. It all sucks.

There is no Switch version, and there will be none, the developers decided that it isn't at all worth it, probably due to poor sales, since there is a Vita version.

I want to make Luca cry.

People can do that on their own. They most certainly don't need morons like and recycling the same utter garbage in every thread, turning every thread into some fucking drama about some fucking event.

Unless you can provide a developer statement about that, that's also horseshit.

Why would they announce a PS4/Vita version but not a Switch version, Switch version isn't happening.

Fun and with a lot of unique shit, but unpolished and lacking a lot of quality of life shit most dungeon crawlers have.

Like fucking seriously, you play as a goddamn book called Tractatus de Monstrum and throughout the story you explicitly record monsters, items and events on yoour own pages. But the game doesn't have a fucking item/monster compedium or help section if you ever forget anything or accidentally skip over a tutorial.

Also, EXP stacking is broken in how easy it makes overlevelling, but also frustrating due to how easy it is to quit a dungeon and lose all of the EXP you gathered because you forgot to cash it in and the game doesn't even warn you when you're about to do it.

>like senran and code vein
Code Vein delay had nothing to do with censorship. It's just that the game got a lot more traction than expected, so dev time and budget where increased to capitalize on a much greater potential success.

Not him, but the original was never announced for PC or Switch initially either. That came later.

>scat
I don't remember this.

But the devs hadn't targeted those platforms at that point, now they have shown that these were at least target platforms but instead decide that supporting them just isn't worth it, why isn't important, the fact that they would sooner support the Vita than the Switch or PC really says a lot.

>the fact that they would sooner support the Vita than the Switch or PC really says a lot.
Watch it be localized for the Switch but not the Vita. Again.
Not even console warring here. The first game started out as a genuine Vita exclusive, but wasn't even localized for the Vita. I really doubt this game will be.

This user gets it.
It'll come to the west as PS4/Switch game.
Switch version will be back-localized to Japan.

you are getting fucking fanatical with that nonensen. Ramadan hurting your brain cells already?

I hope for PC but since the first game was so good I'll get it PS4 if that is not an option.

But why

Bullying Luca is fun.

How edgy is this game? I only know this one from the scene of some guy raping a lesbian.

I think Code Vien has a decent chance of being ported to switch considering what happened to God Eater 3 with that quick port job after release.
