Astral Chain

This is fucking absurd, fall into page 10 after just 5 minutes?!

After Doom eternal it's probably my most anticipated game this year.

If that is, then that user is fucking retarded.

Wait until the games comes out.

How much will this fuckup impact sales?
Seriously. How do you even fail like this?

>tfw there will never be a S-CRY-ed game
>tfw Astral Chain is the closest we will ever get to summoning Zetsuei
>tfw you will never get to play as Kazuma and experience using Shell Bullet for the first time
Life is suffering.

What? Actually the previous "planned trilogy" statement was bad, is a good thing he clarified the mistake.

>How will this fuckup inpact sales?
Hopefully not much. I think most of the sales will come from Japan anyway, and I personally didn't mind about it being a trilogy or not. Although it does seem like a lot of people DID care. But sales are almost certainly going to be middling regardless, considering Platinum games don't sell that well with a few exceptions.

The game is actually very Scryed. The main gameplay is basically RYUHOOOOOOOOOOU! All the day, one legion can even be equipped like armor too.

It's bad that he had to clarify it in the first place. That's the mistake. The damage is already done. They've already swayed the opinions of tons of people around the world.
Will this "oops we fucked up xD" article completely remedy all of that? Not likely. Not all of it. They still made people look at other games over Astral Chain, with the false idea of Astral Chain not being conclusive.

You talk like it was Platinum Games mistake, is not, it was IGN's fault. This only makes them seem as retarded journalists that fucked up so hard that the devs had to correct them.

It was IGN who fucked up.

>So don't fear a cliffhanger
But I WANT a trilogy. Too bad P* is starting to look a lot like Valve with the number 3. Any news on a nice speedo costume? Please?

>“The article states that it is being made as the ‘first title of a trilogy’ but this is not true. I simply said that I’m thinking about different ways to expand further, be it a trilogy or more.”
This makes clear that the only one to blame is IGN for doing a bad translation work.

>No r34 of the dog legion anally knotting the police girl
What is taking them so long?

>T. Lack of reading comprehension.

>You talk like it was Platinum Games mistake
I am? I am fully considering this IGN's fuckup. IGN's fuckup is impacting Astral Chain's sales.
What in my post implied otherwise? You're all jumping the gun here. I am calling IGN pathetic.

I wish the OST was available somewhere. I want to make that s-CRY-ed bump my notification tone.

Most people probably didn't hear the news about the game being a trilogy in the first place.

>Platinum action game
>not licensed
>no DLC
>devs think it has franchise potential
Day 1 for me. It's been a long time.

Even though it was bullshit Platinum has a terrible habit of leaving things open ended (Which may as well be cliffhangers)

>"Will this "oops we fucked up xD" article completely remedy all of that?"
With this you are implying Platinum Games fucked up as IGN didn't make this correction post.

cute vending machine.

According to this they had plans to go pokemon and allow you to capture any enemy and make it a stand but ended up focusing in 5 stands only.

With that I am implying that IGN's poor attempt at damage doesn't make up for the damage their awful """journalism""" already caused.
What made you think of Platinum Games? I referred directly to IGN and didn't mention Platinum Games once.

Chill out. You're overestimating the number of people who follow every news regarding AC, are ready to drop the game over hearing that it's a trilogy and also won't hear about the clarification.

But IGN didn't do this damage control, it was Platinum ganes itself.

>Slime legion
Would main

>but ended up focusing in 5 stands only
I can understand why they would, but I would have still most likely really enjoyed a monster capturing game like this.

PLEASE PLATINUM GIVE ME A SPEEEEEDO COSTUME PLEASE

Goddamn that sounds great.

Would you fags cut it out with the "stands" shit? They're called legions.

>Release a better pokemon game than swsh two months before swsh
I can see why Nintendo told them to not do that

Who cares. When It comes out all that the matters is is it good and does it work.

Sales matter a lot, I want P* to remain a healthy company.

Nintendo commissioned the game. Sales will only matter for nintendo.

So company over videogame for you?

Yeah but if P* wants to continue receiving deals like this, it better sell well.
I didn't say it was more important.

>Yeah but if P* wants to continue receiving deals like this, it better sell well.
Nah, I don't think so. Nintendo and Platinum has had a long working relationship by now, and I think Nintendo understands that they need niche titles that might not sell well, but which help diversify their portfolio of games, and help with release downtime.

I find that sentiment weird, because while I love the idea, I can't understand how the bottom line isn't sales. Also has anyone else noticed the number of reused assets? Such as animations for some legions?

Reused from what?

The running animation on the dog is definitely from bayonetta, the evasion might be as well tho I'd have to look again, I did notice some attacks from the sword stand seem to be very similar to the attacks from some of the angels, plus some of the enemies seem to share an skeleton with some of the angels as well. I remember they did this with Korra.

>mistranslated interview about tiffa.
>mistranslated interview about astral chain.
Gaming sites are still getting shittier.
What will be next?

Because Nintendo is unique in that they are basically solely responsible for the library of their entire platform. If 100,000 Platinum fanboys weren’t going to buy a Switch and other Switch games without the library having Platinum Games titles, it becomes worth it to fund Platinum Games even if that game only sold 100,000 copies, because it brings people into the ecosystem.

Also because in a way, even if it's for a niche audience, it's a system seller I guess.
