Octopath Traveller (PC)

If it was on Epic it wouldn't have flopped.

Not worth 60 $ , 20 is the max

pretty much this

>full price
>denuvo
>no new content
it's literally the same game as a year ago, why would I ever pay full price for that, PLUS have to deal with malware on my system?
I'll wait till it's got denuvo removed, and it's down to $20 as it should be. I won't even pirate it, because I don't care that much about it.

Nintendr*nes sure are retarded.

Octopath is the best traditional jRPG made in the past 15 years. If your a boomer with a soft spot for snes rpgs you should play it.

Didn't even realise it was out, been meaning to re-play the Switch version

Isn't it really easily exploited because of that break system?

How the hell is this game having the same price as FFXV's although it's just another run-of-the-mill JRPG? Even worse, it's a pixelshit with generic menu turn based combat.

why are pc-fats so butthurt? that's a standard price for a decent non-indie game

the only people who "begged" for an ocopath port are sony news media websites

If it was a new game maybe. Not for a year old game.

Most of them old school games had a way to break it if you looked it up. Just go and play it.

Played it on Switch already, was good. Kind of hard to justify 60 for a year late port plus digital only being 10 bucks more than the original release while slapping Denuvo on it.

I hate the art style and it's way overpriced. Oh and most jrpgs are for teenagers.

>fullprice

Except it looks and play like an indie game and don't deserve the $60 price tag. Fuck off, Nintenshills.

I didn't even realize that it's out, thanks OP!

Nooo

>Denuvo
Not touching that shit

>if you looked it up
sure but you had to actually deliberately exploit vanish sketch or berserk imp or something like that. the break system is part of the game that you're SUPPOSED to exploit, and I hear the game is really basic because of it. Like you have to go out of your way to let enemies act. It seems more like a puzzle game to break enemies in an efficient manner than a real jrpg where you're managing enemy actions.

This. It deserves to fail for Denuvo alone. But charging full price for a game thats been out this long is the last reason to ignore it until it gets cracked. Not having any new content wouldn't have bothered me but the other two can fuck off.

If I have a soft spot for SNES JRPGs I would just play those considering they're better than Octopath. This game was nothing more than nostalgia bait for retards.

It costs 6 times the average game in my country's steam

how is this game $60? like what the fuck this is some rpgmaker deviantart-tier shit

this.

How long for the crack bros?

Everyone who wanted this game probably has already played it, but if you really like SNES RPGs you should pick it up eventually.

SE just launched FF12 on the xbox one and Switch for 50$.
They are insane.

Thing is, I'm willing to pay as much for it as I did on my Switch. But these red button nip monkeys decided to charge $5 more despite it not being a physical release. Considering publishers were on the verge of throwing a shitfit when Switch was announced to use flash storage cartridges over discs, it is especially offensive to me that they would charge more when they're already eliminating that overhead.

I love SNES rpgs and Octopath is trash.

5417*60 = 325020, which is 227k after steam takes 30%

there is no way the devs of a niche weeb game are not satisfied with that, especially after a bulk of people will buy it on sale.

STAY MAD

this but given the supposed length I'd be fine with $30 but denuvo is 100% completely unacceptable

>$60 pixel shit.

No thanks.

That's pretty good.

>devs of a niche weeb game
you mean squenix who thought 8 million sales (at $60 a piece) was a failure? Nah m8.

Well yeah, of course it's a failure when you spend more than a decade making it.

>denuvo
Those sales are shockingly high.

I'll get it next sale, but yeah 60$ is fucked

How fucking stupid are you retarded fucks? Those are not sales. Those are concurrent players who have been playing at the same time, and those don't tell anything about sales when it comes to single player games. Fucking retarded mentally ill pieces of shit. Yakuza 0 for example has sold over 200k on Steam, and the concurrent player count is low as shit.

Fucking stupid monkeys.

Attached: Concurrent players have nothing to do with sales.jpg (1134x846, 210K)

No way im gonna pay 60 for a port with Denuvo.

How is a peak of 5k for a niche game a bad thing?

high alltime peak means high sales for most games

are you retarded rofl? even a publisher can differentiate from this and an AAA game. acquire itself has 84 employees, and the sales are probably more than all time players-peak. by comparison bethesda has ~400 and they are considered a small team
I know, idiot, but even if it only sold 4k it would still turn a profit for a lazy port

>mankind divided
>tomb raider
>10 years
they both took under 3.

I didn't buy it on the Switch for this reason. €60 is fucking rediculous.

So you mean to say these people are buying these games then not playing them? I don't buy it. Maybe some shitty humble bundle turd, not a $60 title. 10k sales tops for octopath m8. And where's your proof for yak 0?

They made cash though, issue with Squareshit is they blamed those games not selling well because their nip branch was losing money on XVturd.

DENUVO

Go fuck yourself Square Enix.

>60 dollars for a pixelated year old budget RPG released with a divided popular reception
Honestly those are pretty good numbers.

PCbro here. I'll admit I portbeg for a few things. Bloodborne and Spyro Reignited Trilogy being the two main ones. This though? Fuck no. It's turn based weebshit. It looked like garbage from the moment it released.
This is a big part of where it flopped. Switch players are already used to getting overcharged for everything. But PC players are used to getting way better bang for their buck and aren't going to pay $60 for what literally looks like an indie game.
Because most decent indie games look way better than this shit.

Only single player games that get high peaks are ones with multiplayer components or that are hyped as fuck like Sekiro. And still the others sell hundreds of thousands while having low concurrent player counts.

I want to buy it but it is way too expensive for me. 30€ is max for me and when its on sale I will get it.

yakuza 0 devs already said they are happy with the sales

>denuvo
>60
>shitty game
lol how about no

Source for it flopping?

>steamspy
yeah okay, but how about a source, and not someone guesstimating by their own admission?
what does happy mean though? maybe 8k sales is enough to make them happy, since it seems like that's all the players they've ever really had at the peak of it's popularity, probably 15k max.

New denuvo is uncracakleble

you will probably play switch version in few years on emu

Reviews for games on Steam are a good indication of sales. Yakuza 0 has over 8000 reviews. 7 reviews is around 300 copies sold. You can do the math.

Who the fuck portbegged for this shit?

>New denuvo is uncracakleble
That's what they are saying since the beginning of Denuvo.

what the fuck? So is 1 stream viewer 8,000,000,000 click through rate now, too? We just making up numbers? 7 reviews is 7 copies sold, fucknut. 8000 = 8000, give or take people who are too lazy, again, 15k max.

>€60 for pixelshit
I just don't get it. It isn't even as good as the old school pixel RPG games.

dunno, bro, but they also put both kiwami's there so no matter how hard you try, you wont convince anyone that yakuza 0 didn't find a strong niche on PC

>you will probably play switch version in few years on emu
That's what I planned to do anyway. I have a big backlog, it doesn't bother me.

I'm not saying it didn't, I'm saying that 8k concurrent players strongly suggests nowhere near 200k sales, no matter how you slice it, in this reality.

yeah totally who would ever buy a game on steam and not play it like that'd be ridiculous imagine if you had idle programs made just so you can get the trading cards without playing the game i mean who does that lol

Again, if it's some humble bundle piece of shit, sure. I don't believe anyone spending $60 or even $20 then not immediately playing it.

You were drunk?

This game is a huge success on Switch, with 1.5M copies sold. I wonder how it could not even hit 10K on Steam. Even MHW surpassed 2M copies sold in less than 4 months on Steam.

Sony has news media websites?

No, just retahded.

Nope. 15000 reviews always indicates that a game has sold over million copies. You can do the math.
You are fucking retarded.
Those are concurrent players, not sales. Yakuza 0 has sold over 200k on PC despite having less than 10k concurrent players.

that's what happens when you wait a year to release a game, and then release it at full price (which wasn't a good price on switch either!) People lose interest and have time to hear about the flaws of the game. I'll buy it eventually when the price is right.

Didn't even bought it on Switch

keep crying for PC users

Those are not sales, those are concurrent players which do not tell anything about the game's sales. Yakuza 0 has less than 10k concurrent players yet has sold over 200k on Steam.

This is what you get when you're a greedy fuck demanding 60 bucks for a 20 dollar game.
I hope they fail and never make another game.

Redpill me on the character interaction system. How deep is it? Is it like old school CRPGs where your some of your actions could potentially piss off your companions and lead to branching consequences and outcomes?

60 fucking euros? That's almost 70$ for a shitty year old indie game. How could anyone believe this is a good deal?

Here's the thing: I'm not poor

Nintendofag here, end your life consolewarring scum

Not a $60 game.
Greedy fucks.

Every game on Steam with over 15k reviews has sold over a million copies. Basic information which has been available for the past 10 years.

not desperate for games unlike you know who

>I-it totally sold 150,000 copies!
>There's only barely a hundreth of that playing it though, but it's true I promise!

It does say actually. Going by these examples the sale numbers are at best 200k and at worst less than 100k.

Cope.

Is it even a good game though? I played the demo on Switch forever ago, I didn't find it impressive in any way. I hated the graphics, but maybe that's a personal problem. The combat wasn't as fun as the Bravely Default games systems; or other JRPGs for the matter. And I didn't feel too interested in the stories of the characters.

I've honestly never seen the need for the game, and I was also baffled by the choice to make it 60 damn dollars. Just doesn't seem right.

What were they thinking?

Fuck off you shitty baiter. Have sex.

Your party literally doesn't exist in each character's cutscenes, they're always alone on those. There's inconsequential (and non-variable) chats between characters sprinkled between said cutscenes, these are just unvoiced vignettes by the way.

As someone who was beyond hyped for the game, it’s not that good. The graphics are amazing IMO, but the gameplay wears on your by everyone’s Chapter 3

TO SEE IF I STILL FEEL

What the hell is wrong with SE? How do they justify setting up these ludicrous prices for decades old games? Have they ever addressed this?

It's not, combat manages to be shallower than Bravely despite being designed to be an improvement of it, character interaction is a joke, dungeon design is just as bad as the Bravely games and chapter structure is formulaic even by old JRPG standards.

Master race here but that's 100% accurate.

I own a switch, should I get it on switch or PC ? Is the port well-made ?

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Those aren’t USD.

It run exactly the same on the PC and Switch so just get whichever one you'd prefer to play it on.

It's just banter lad. Don't be so mad.

youtu.be/nDZAVpINuUA

you dont understand how to read the data.
active player numbers cannot be all players.
not everybody plays at the same time. there are time zones to consider and people playing the game later.
its not that hard to grasp.

You Lil Zoom Zooms may not know this but before you were born people used to buy physical copies of the games or pirated them from internet.

Didn't recall PCkeks portbegging for this. It came all by itself.

So what you are saying is that you literally didn't buy a single game in the last 10 years?

I mean, who actually wants to sit down in front of a computer to play this? The graphics are made for the portable mode so this is only really for the niche of people who actually wants this kind of game who doesn't already have a switch, which is miniscule.
Not to mention the bullshit price, didn't they actually ban someone for asking why its 10$ more expensive than at launch?

>what does happy mean though?

I've pondered myself that question every day in my life.

Literally looks like an RPGMaker game but in 3D with DOF, Bloom, and some other post processing shit. Even plays like one too. What the fuck was SE smoking when they slapped $60 price tag on the game? PCfags are not starving for games to spend $60 on some pixelshit.

Test
Pcfags

No, that's dragon quest 11

Because contrary to what they want you to believe, PCucs are poorfags that spend a lot on a machine and then feel they have the right to set prices on things, free being the default

>square enix releases octopath on pc for $60, 10 dollars more than the switch version
>bans anyone who asks why
day one pirate

PC gamers don't buy games, there is a reason why every publisher and dev focuses on consoles.

Here's the dilemma they're stuck in: Nintendofags will gobble up anything at full price, even 10+ year old games so they aren't going to lower the price there because people still buy it. PC players expect the price for a game like this to be lower, but Square can't lower it just on PC because then switch players will expect a similar price drop and will see they've been getting shafted.

Might be ebcause i'm an idort, but i have literally never bought a nintendo console or a game for a nintendo console at full rpice in my life. I was hyped for octopath, got it on release for 40€ through pre-order discounts ans sales stacking, and even then it was pushing it.

>60fps for a turn based pixelshit game
either way show me those amazing reshades and upscaled models.

the funny part is that you can actually play it for free on the switch, but not on PC.

no i'm lazy

it's an Unreal 4 game, it cost them next to nothing to port it.

good, 60 is a ripoff for this shit

>Shitty indie game
Sorry its not an epic :^) open world adventure like assassin's creed or red dead redemption.

Retards like this guy are why games never have job systems and true party customization

Such a high price for a game that has been hyped for months due to over-hype-inflation from Nintendo fanboys. While the reality was that the game is average as fuck. Easy combat, re-used stale looking environments and lackluster plot and character progression.

where's the crack

they are using a form of denuvo that hasnt been cracked yet.
