4 DAYS BROS GET IN HERE

Reviews are up in a couple hours obviously journo scores don't mean shit but if you actually read the content of the reviews you might be able to decide if you want it

20 hours plus according to some journos

Not including post game

not gonna buy it. Too poor. Maybe gonna get it around christmas if its good for reduced price.

That's not bad compared to like Legend of Korra or Transformers Devastation
I still wish it was longer but now I might consider it

Is there a lot of post game content beyond S-ranking all the fights?

I hate poor people, die.

When are the reviews coming out?

all the embargos forbid discussion beyond the 5-6 hour mark, so no one has talked about post game content. i hope there's something.

there is beyond just replaying the same chapters at higher difficulties and collecting achievements

reminder its $50 at walmart like all new games

This journo has been talking about the game. He really loved it

>In the third stretch of Astral Chains postgame content and after a short feeling of mastery I'm now repeatedly kicked in the cojones again. Things like item management and abillity slots are becoming crucial now. Brutal stuff, really 50 hours. FIFTY hours. And still lot's of challenges left.

Are there different difficulty settings?

Yes

there was a picture of the achievement screen that had like 130 achievements, many of them rewarding cosmetic outfit pieces like hats, tops, bottoms, etc...

Dunno why I asked when they're usually a given in Platinum's games.

Achievements are the "Orders". There's 185 of them, with basic milestone stuff, s+ rank, finding hidden stuff, etc. Each one rewards materials or costumes.

yeah this is the pic that is getting deleted by nintendo ninjas I was referring to

just put my pre order in bros. hope they send it early

I've never had it deleted. The video its from is still up, chapter 5 was allowed to be shown. Also here's the one for enemy database. Taking pictures with the camera adds enemy to database with model viewer. There's 167 enemies.

Only deleted leaked image I've seen is this one. But considering how customizable the HUD is with color themes and display toggles it's not too surprising that voice can be changed. Wonder if there will be cameos like maybe Alice from W101, or if these are other characters of AC.

As long as you look the words (not the numbers) and the author (not the site) you should get a pretty good idea of what the game is about.

FIGHT FOR YOUR PARADIIIIISE

>can't trust critic reviews because paid shills and dick sucking
>can't trust user reviews because "the next TORtanic" fags review bomb high profile releases
So what's the point of having review scores if you know they're inherently biased and skewed?

Do you guys honestly think there will be reviewers that will score it lower because of MUH GLORIFY POLICE?

Polygon or Kotaku perhaps

that's the challenge of videogames in general, which makes it a true hobby

Play the game and make your own opinion

I mean when Nintendo comes to them with a check to support a mid-sized team for ~24 months, tell them to do whatever they want, and they only have to care about one platform in term of optimization, integrations, etc., why would they say no?

The fact that people are even trying to shoehorn AMERICAN politics into a JAPANESE game is proof that certain people shouldn't be allowed to have an opinion.

Gonna wait to see opinions and maybe even a small price drop, but it's getting harder to resist

uh because of integrity? once pcchads saved them from bankruptcy they cant just go back to being a kids platform exclusive and exclude us.

You’re best off going to Walmart buying it for 50$ and deciding

>This is really good!

>This is Okay...

>Never Playing this shit game ever again

Basically form your own opinions based on your tastes and preferences

That guy also confirms you dont need to S+ all missions/sidequests in a row to get S+ on chapter results. You can just pick the individual fights to redo. It's a good thing for those that complain about the investigations or talking to NPCs, and don't have to deal with the checkpoint system of games like Bayonetta, MGR, and W101.

They’re trying something new to keep things fresh.
So far the leaks said the game is 30% combat 70% investigation and exploration

Can we plant drugs on the monsters after we kill them?

That's implying it doesn't get canceled in the first place, there's been literally zero word about it since e3 2018

Based and samepilled.
Already liked the groundwork for Daemon and the updates have been nothing but improvements. They even added shit I wrote in specifically like Subtitle formatting and firearm sounds!

Maybe SE realized like Microsoft on how Platinum is known for sucking that Nintendo cock and rather ignore other projects in favour of Nintendo.

Because Steam or Epic or Gog dont fund full games.
Wait for their own IPs that they plan to release in the next few years if you want platinum games on pc.

That or they'll just kick them off after developing the core gameplay like cygames did

>Game looks pretty good and i’m thinking about buying it
>Also want the game to flop miserably so I can shitpost
I’m conflicted bros, what do I do?

>Maybe SE realized, like Microsoft and Cygames, how Platinum is known for sucking that Nintendo cock and rather ignore other projects in favor of Nintendo.

Fixed.
It's hilarious how all of their non-Nintendo projects either fell apart or were mediocre while Astral Chain is shaping up to be their best game ever.

Totally forgot about Cygames, how's the development on Granblue doing?

Good shit user

Stop being a retard tortanic shitposter?

Just want to say before the weeklong shitposting begins in 1 hour that I hope you all enjoy the game

See you on the other side

I was basically sold at gyro controls and remappable controls
As long as I can set reset camera to Y like Splatoon 2 I’m a happy camper

Scalebound was probably going to suck from the demo we saw, I'm guessing Microsoft really tried to shoehorn in a lot of Western game design sensibilities that just don't mix well with kamiyas very old school Japanese game style.

I know about Platinums involvement, but I was asking about the game.

Looks comfy.

why the fake overacted voice

I'm going to be honest: even if Platinum released new games on PC I wouldn't buy them because they will be cheap, poorly made cashgrabs.
They only want to make games for Nintendo. And there is nothing wrong with that; it just means that I'm not their target public so I have no reason to buy anything from them that isn't the PC ports of MGR, Bayonetta or Vanquish.

Or Microsoft realized that they didn't give a shit so they plugged off the project and cut their loses. I'm more inclined to believe this given their past five years' non-Nintendo output.

Nier Automa got popular because of 2B’s ass
Occam’s Razor

He physically can’t stop creaming himself every time he talks about a game he likes. Poor choice of profession

I think ome of the big problems was they kept.hampering Scalebounds development.
by constantly making Platinum produce demos. Because every other first party was too incompetent to actually make one presentable, lol crackdown being closed door only for years so platinum had to keep cranking out rough demos. Which they could do because platinum can always get something done under the gun. But it kept looking rough as shit and milestones were probably getting pushed back to compensate. So MS and Platinum probably endes up souring the relationship enough to just cut it when stuff like Phantom Dust 2 got nixxed since MS had started wiping projects.

Except Nier was great on PS4 and Xbone lmao get a fucking grip schizo. Bayo and vanquish being shit on PC isn't in their control.

I know this is copy pasta and all, but imagine actually ever posting images of yourself online.

Crime rates are also far, far lower in Japan because people actually respect the law and the people who uphold it.

it also was only one per customer

Should I be excited for this game? The trailers made it seem like standard fare Jap budget action game with a weird mix of robot/detective gimmicks. I don't get excited for a game just because Platinum made it. What are people excited for about it? Maybe I missed something.

>enjoys paying $80 bucks for video games
try not to choke on that corporate cock too much, fag

No it wasn't. I bought 2 pairs.

Can someone tell me how many FPS does the game have?

God I can't fucking wait for this game

See
The literal Kucktaku reviewer is spilling his spaghetti all over this because he doesn’t completely hate anime like those hateful chuckle fucks

zero
it's third person perspective

what the fuck is with the late hate on anime everywhere? reminds me of the zoomer wave hating on smartphones and pornography.

Now see I know THAT is a lie as I bought 2 sets of vouchers ad using them on a few games
>First set was for Hyrule Warriors + Splatoon 2
>Second set was for Super Mario Maker 2 + Astral Chain
>Third set I was planing for Bulders 2 + Deamon X Machina
I was holding off on the third though as money was a bit tight, and I wasn't too sure on Bulders 2 yet so I wanted to wait a bit longer before I doubled down. But FUUUUUCK that's $30+ I'm spending now.

I've got a friend who says he's going to play this so he can't play Pathologic like I wanted him to, what's this game?

I used my 1100 Nintendo Jew Coins to save $11 bucks on my purchase. Would've been able to save $3 extra if some of my coins hadn't expired a few weeks ago.

It’s wasn’t as good as a deal as it was in japan
AAA games can cost 80$ there

Here Walmart matched the voucher price you can get physical for the same price as digital thus no money saved

The reviewer from Kotaku seems to be having the time of his life with this game

Cool concept, fairly unique idea for an action game having two characters you fight with simultaneously. Obviously it's harder to get excited for a new IP compared to an established property but what we've seen looks pretty cool. I personally love the idea of the game, enjoy the aesthetic, and have been impressed with the gameplay we have seen so I'm excited for it, but won't truly know if it lives up to those expectations until Friday.

It was for me because of taxes and the like. You spend more on two $60 titles, then a single $100 purchase. To a point where the savings where like a bit over $30 bucks give or take. Hell I couldn't even FIND physical copes of Hyrule Warriors at the time of.

Because they raped it with loli and gatcha or whatever. Last one I enjoyed was Parasyte.

Dororo is good.

This is the closest thing to an action game thread, anyone got tips on those fucking dogs in Shinobi Ps2?

>cheap, poorly made cashgrabs
what? both bayo and vanquish run great

Kill yourself have you seen western animation
Shadows barely exist

>Western animation
>The only "adult" western animation film is fucking Sausage Party

Put a guy in that game and see if anyone calls it more than a DMC knock off. I doubt it would have had a sequel since it would have bombed so bad.

I never said that MGR, Vanquish and Bayonetta were shit on PC. Quite the opposite: they're the only good PG games available on PC.
My point is, from now on any game Platinum releases on a non-Nintendo platform will be showvelware-tier at worst, mediocre from a gameplay standpoint like Nier Automata (the button masher some people accuses Bayonetta to be) at best.

If you want to experience good Platinum Games games you have no choice but to buy a Switch.

It's funny how keep declaring that old anime = better only discuss and praise the same 15-20 shows.
Given how anime has been a thing since the late 60's and the cut date is December 31th 1999, it means that there is less than one good anime per year and therefore anime has never been a good medium and current anime is no better.

And they wonder why people watch anime.
I want to change that but I already know I’m going to be digging though a mountain of shit but I’m preparing myself for that.

What are you having a stroke about?

yes because araki definitely invented controllable avatars

Guyver and Patlabor are definetly considered old school nowadays

>Change that
Meaning you want to go from western animation to anime? Or the other way around?

You can do yourself a favor and just go away. Everyone wins.

Oh so you based this autistic victim complex on one game you didnt like. Cool I guess, maybe try having sex and stop huffing coolant.

Yeah cause uhm, this guy invented breathing through your nose

Can’t you read you blind fuck?
It’s Astral Chain.

Guyver is a very violent action manga inspired by Toku.
Patlabor is a slice of life with cops and robots.
It has absolutely no sense to compare both of them with Astral Chain unless you want to earn brownie points with stupid normalfags.

he's right though.

Well enjoy user, hope you can pick up astral chain next month, way too many switch games in September.

That was one of my inspirations

My 1st pet project was literally re writing legend of Korra with actual character growth, non benders who rely on being sneaky, using ambushes etc, and lastly an evil tribe of Metal and Blood benders: The Blood Rust tribe attacking everyone

I guess since she’s already used to Paranormal shit she’s perfect for the job

FYI, anime has ALWAYS been shit, you just need to sort through it to find the good ones. Before the isekai boom, it was shitty LN harem adaptions, and something new and shitty will come after them.

This must be the Gamespot guy that went on the giantbomb podcast and spent like 15 minutes talking about how he made ff14 catgirls that looked like Chie and Yukiko

Sounds pretty based

Aw yir, this is the moronic excahnge I've been waiting for.
The build-up until user say it'll NEVER release on PC, the swift retort from user concerning emulation, and then the scathing laughter from both sides over how horrible emulation is and how horrible playing on console is, respectively.

Then something about how PC always wins, and something about how there would be any games if everyone just pirated them all, or waited several years to emulate them.

This gunna be good.

It’s just shitposters
No one complains Samurai Jack, Old Ben ten and The last avatar were too anime
They were western as fuck and people loved them

The guy is complaining about the action being hard to follow, he's just retarded

Same could be said of japanese made open world games really.

Why?

The game is out in 4 days?
Or 116 hours.

How so? Isn't it the point to just secure a copy as soon as one is available from your closest retailer or preferred online outlet?

So he should just let everyone else buy the copies of which he'd like to have one?

Polygon recommends the game and seems to like it, even though they did bring up the playing as cop thing.

looks like such a wasted opportunity

>Even though they did bring up something about the game
What a shoddy excuse for journalism, commenting on things in the game

You are part of a special police force, using your mecha stand to fight crime and otherworldly monsters

I mean yeah if it’s a limited edition
For the regular version just go to Walmart bro.
Dude there’s Walmart target Best Buy
Unless you live out in the boonies where things are in low supply and sell out quickly just call the store they’ll have like 12 copies ready for purchase

It's a spiritual successor to Chaos Legion

Polygon is pretty shit

Agreed, they shouldn't talk about the game in their game review

I've got a pair-a-normal balls she can suck on.

It’s about mentioning the glaringly obvious

Polygon liking the game makes me worried.

>most Yea Forums users are pc players
nope
>First I heard of automata is through Yea Forums
Sounds like you're not much into games if you missed months of a game being popular on a single system before it came to PC

Well shit you’re 100% right

>no dumb police were actually evil twist
This is really nice to know.

Yeah it’s oddly refreshing to just see
“Evil monsters from another dimension go fuck em up”

Polygon are so retarded that there is no correlation between their opinions and a game being good, positive or negative. It's all part of being as utterly unhelpful as possible as a reviewer.

Japan doesn't really do that. At least from the stuff I watched. A popular thing from them (and similar Asian pop culture) is the super cop though.

>good people can do right
based on their shitty ideologies of course!

True
>Game is literally made my motherfucking Jesus Christ and can transform itself into everything you want in a game and is perfect is every sense of the word

>Polygon
We know it’s perfect but is it too perfect?
8/10 it’s too good I should be dead to enjoy something this great

Yeah I guess you're right. Still though you don't see it too often in games or maybe I've just missed out on them.

Will Astral Chain scratch my CUTTING DOWN 100 EVIL DOERS

Even Yoko Taro loves it. I wish people would stop trying to force some meme war between this game and Nier Automata.

To them cops are pretty boring but Robo cop- Ultra cops do hardcore shit

the supercop concept ranges from jackie chan tier just-really-good-at-martial-arts to doggie kruger tier we protect-the-peace-in-space

72 hours and 25 minutes...

Why do people use Akira Howard as the protagonist's name? They are nameless. Akira refers to the twin you didn't pick.

I unironically want to write a super cop action movie

Ayy this is the guy who spilled his spaghetti all over Dragon Quest XI, seems like a cool guy

I really hope my package arrives on time.

>game is good
>but doesnt really play like a Platinum game
i'd feel better about this is Bayo 3 wasnt vaporware

But the twin is also a selectable protagonist design. So wouldnt Akira also be the MC?

>Gamespot says he’s played for 40 hours and still loving it

>Jon from Gamexplain says 15

Which is it fuckers, which one of you are casuals
Also why the fuck do they pretend Bayonetta is the only game platinum made

I believe kotaku tried to bring it up in an interview but got shot down
The actuall reviews from them however have been extremely positive.

no, the one you didn't pick is Akira, e.g. the one who dies

What are the costumization options like?

Can I wear full swat armor? Or is it just shit like preset hair styles + outfit colors

>Enemies intros like Bayonetta
>It’s like Bayonetta
>the action scenes follow bayonetta

Did jon never play Nier and Wonderful 101? It seems retarded he mentions W101 in just controls and pretend everything else is bayonetta

Why is it this game gets away with having sexy females by also having sexy males but fighting games don't?

Nier and W101 are not in smash so they dont exist in his Nintendo fanboy mind

Despite sounding like he liked the game a lot, Jon’s review is absolute garbage.

It doesn’t help that he decided to pull a Dunkey response to people criticizing his preview last week

I think just the story itself is 15 hours. The game is longer if you do all the optional tasks. A 15 hour story is longer than plenty of other action games.

You can wear lappy the dog uniform
I’m pretty sure full swat is in

>An upgraded version of Nier Automata’s RPG system
>Nier’s casual exploration

>Combat and general theme of Wonderful 101 with a special forces unit and Metal Gear Rising vibe

>Jon “It’s bayonetta”

Can I be shirtless as a guy?

There's different costume sets, each with variations that you can customize. The first set is the police gear, and you can change top to stuff like armor or a dress shirt, remove the tie and pouches, put leggings on etc. Looks like pants/shorts and boots are tied to the costume set you pick.

He let his wife get fucked by a black man in response to criticism?

I wouldn’t suggest watching Gamexplain’ review on the account that Jon doesn’t seem to realize he’s spoiling a lot

I'm going to use the power of penis to bring my sister back.

Attached: gp8CyNY.jpg (1920x1080, 713K)

both are shit since instead of precisely describing the mechanics they just compare it to other games

Attached: LzJHozc.jpg (1920x1080, 690K)

One reviewer did mention the combat is hard to explain with text which might be why we see so much falling back to comparisons. It's hard to imagine how the combat feels considering the unique mechanical premise.

Does the game have a stereotypical police outfit? Im talking no armor, just a blue button up shirt, a tie, and a flat top hat

I didn't realise the face and head wear customisation options would be so extensive, usually if you want to equip like a bandana over your mouth you would have to remove your glasses, glad to see I get to fine tune it.

Astral Chain is currently Platinum’s longest game if you decide to pursue all side missions

Not sure on Automata though

Nintendies still spamming this board with their indie games? lmao embarrassing.

The game will have an unlockable Wonder Blue outfit, right bros?

They'll reference our game... right bros?

I kind of miss battle harems, maybe we will get a 5th season of high school dxd.

And costume menu looks like this, showing that those specific chestplates and jackets are part of the Ark Police Gear. More clothing gets added to all menus as you unlock them.

>One reviewer did mention the combat is hard to explain with text
ie he sucks at his job and should not be taken serious
>It's hard to imagine how the combat feels considering the unique mechanical premise
a puppetfighter with a chain gimmick. see? it's not that hard to describe, those (((reviewers))) just suck at doing their job

>a puppetfighter
What? Is this some more character action tier nonsense?

Judging by the icon for head accessories here I'd say flat top hat is all but confirmed.

Guess I’ll pick this up. Wasn’t sure how it would turn out desu tho it looked cool

There's the hat in the green outfit here. Also if you look at the menus a bunch of goggles and hats are listed in japanese.

A puppet fighter is a fighting game term for characters that control an outside character to fight by their side, usually that other character being able to tank hits or otherwise not counting KO-wise, like Rosalina or Ice Climbers in Smash or Kankuro in most Naruto games

it implies that instead of controlling one character, you control two characters, with one being the main and the other the puppet.
you can only really find it fighting games though a current non fightan example would be V in dmc5

>fighting game term
>Smash
>Naruto

not him but if you want a more conventional fightan example, there's jojo heritage for the future

I have around 160 hours on FE atm and I'm on route 3 out of 4. It's definitely something worth getting if you want back for your buck in terms of game time. But if you want something more fast-paced, Astral will be your pick.

>Fighting Games
>Naruto Storm

Isekais are the worst though and attract the lowest IQ viewers which means it's not going anywhere any time soon

You act like the PS4 or xbone can run anything at a constant 60... I got some news for you

It's less so low IQ and moreso cheap escapism. Much like harem protagonists you're supposed to self insert into an isekai protagonist and pretend to live a life more interesting than your own.

I think anyone watching SAO or 'black clover' has a low iq

Black Clover is a battle Shonen ala one piece not an isekai. And yes battle Shonen is a very low IQ genre. Idk what the hell SAO is, its like an isekai in format but without any of the things that make the genre popular. Might just be for kingdom hearts fags who enjoy trenchcoats, katanas, and dual swords.

WHERE ARE THE SPOILERS ?? FINAL BOSS?

Your mom

The final boss is Big dick Paul

Fuck off you nigger

That's nice. It can be nice to see something as its ideal, it can be its own form of criticism to show a better version of something
