Which character are you most excited for?
Only correct answer. So far.
seems like there wont be any pantsu in this game
modders save is
Game is kinda lacking in the hag department.
white eyelashes lick lick pero pero pero pero
meido love
Whoever has the biggest breasts
God I hope they make some girls with bigger breasts than that. It's fine as a starting ceiling but they can't max out there.
I think we will be fine.
I wanna frick all the e-girls in this game
Nah, they are too cute.
ugly chingchong characters
where are the busty blondes with long hair wearing bunny suits
You have the elf for now but we are only 1 trailer in.

Is the fairy like Paimon or is she the pokemon of the elf?
the elf from the looks of it
I wonder if they'll make those pokemon gacha as well to get more revenue or if they'll just be a package with the characters.
If there are no weapons then the pokémon will 100% be gacha. But the demo does show obtaining them from eggs so maybe they might just be the equivalent of Genshin artifact system.
Maybe some are 4* weapon-pokemon while some are 5* gacha. It would make sense to sell pokemon as well, they seem more like weapons in the combat trailer.
If the gacha imitates Genshin or HSRs the pokemon are going to be the fodder
The girls will be the main gacha, Pals will be the equivalent of artifacts. There will be weapons but they will be created with in game resources you obtain from farming and crafting, their designs will be very basic and won't change too much. There will be weapon skin elements, like adding a ribbon or a flower. Those can be bought from the shop or crafted in game too, whales will prefer to buy them all while F2P will craft them and choose carefully which they craft because their resources will limit them.
There will be actual skins in game for the gacha characters, all from the store but they can also be grinded as f2p but same as weapon skins whales will buy them all while f2p might just get a few every now and then for their favorite girls.
>pokemon are going to be the fodder
Where did you get that info from? Is that actual or just wishful thinking?
It came to me in a dream.
>pokemon
um excuse me they are ripping off PALWORLD so they are PALS thank you
Okay but which one of the girls is the most built for BBC?
None of them are associated with the British Broadcasting Corporation as far as I know.
ML = master love (aka male-oriented)
CP = character pairing (aka shipping)
Northen Myanmar = scam/fraudulent game (normally referred to games that bait men with female characters, but are actually ominpandering)
Lily = yuri
Pufferfish = yurigays
Dolphin/ White Dolphin = yurigays
xxn = feminists
Yellow chicken = manjuu

Post yfw you don't give a shit about any of this chinese identity politics garbage
I'm just gonna have fun playing with my full elf party
I WILL stare at Female MC butt.
You may want to consider HRT if you're identifying as a female in games, hoyo xister. But we support your decision to transition!
Thanks, you'd know where to get it right?
Yeah, of course xister! Here's the neat pro-trick, you can go down to Home Depot and buy yourself a rope and ladder and just skip to the end result! It'll save you a lot of money in the long run.
This topic seems to occupy your mind a lot and I can see you are quite immersed in it, very commendable.
I'm glad to have such an effeminate and delicate friend like you to help me through this!
Well, I've got to help my xister who's trying to become a girl reach her final form, after all ^_^
Of course, I'll be happy to follow in your footsteps!
One day, I'll be just as emotional and feminine as you, just you wait!
Says the person choosing a female character to represent himself lmao.
I don't self-insert.
>Character is a blank slate for (you) to put yourself on
>There will be customization to make him look how you want, within the limits of the model
>Basically Steve from Minecraft, anime edition
>A few lore tidbits for why you're special
Sister, you okay?
Ok I still don't self-insert.
My guy just wants a fricking Mii of himself on every game lmao.
"This is me" no dude that's a character in the game. You are the dude playing a game watching another dude.
You telling me that you play the Dragonborn or your Elden Ring character as if they aren't a self insert for you?
completely different games. if theres playable a cute anime girl i never self insert and only think about sex
Honestly that's a more respectable position than trying to own the chuds or attempt to create some weird lily garden where every girl is cucking you with the other girls because they're all lesbians now. I still disagree with it, especially given the level of customization we're supposedly having over the appearance of the main character to make it our personal avatar, but at least it's one I can respect.
I'm seeing this as one of those player avatar games, with anime girls. The protagonist as a blank slate for us to put ourselves on and ideally has about as much dialog as a Soulsborn protagonist.
Frick this Black person here
Let's just bring an end to the shitposting.
>Let's just bring an end to the shitposting.
I promise in a few hours someone's shift is going to start and we will see the same exact bait as last night.
It must be truly sad to not have any imagination and be void of any creativity and just have the "don't think, consume" mentality. Can you imagine an apple in your head? No? Thought so.
I usually put the MC in the main party when doing story quests for immersion reasons, so I'm forced to pick the female MC if I don't want to stare at a male butt for a prolonged amount of time.
No knife ears in my parties.
I'm here for the cute girls flashing their panties and the big mommy milkers on my screen.
I don't give a frick about Zhang seething.
You should because it will spread to other countries as Chinese companies dominate the gacha industry. Like how US identity politics spread to other places. Azur Promilia is pretty much China's Gamergate moment.
>Azur Promilia is pretty much China's Gamergate moment.
So it will fail, get completely subverted by its opposition and cause Chinese gaming to go through at least a decade of dark ages with no end in sight? Well damn.
>Too slow for /vg/
>Too fast for /vmg/
It should slow down soon, I doubt we're getting any more information in the next 3 months and the game should be at least a year away, probably two. WuWa releasing is going to draw the shitposters back to /vg/ where they're going to try to set up le epic thread war between them and /gig/.
>ctrl+f "g"
>2 results
Yeah nope not gonna happen.
IIRC they got their license on January 2024 so they have until January 2025 to release the game. It's why Wuthering Waves will be releasing soon as well.
The game does seem pretty complete too, but I don't want to get my hopes up for an early release, there's a big difference beteween a dev build to show off some gameplay and finishing the entire infrastructure of servers and management, getting the content pipeline ready because you want to be able to deliver new stuff on time after you release or people will quit. If they do have an early 2025 limit they'll most likely release as close as possible to that deadline.
I'm a fairly popular streamer/youtuber, no not the bald guy you all hate. I expressed my interest in the game on social media when the trailer dropped and I was dm'd if I am interested in streaming beta access. I assume all the streamers got similar messages as well so beta will release very soon. I didn't get any actual information as to the date but they usually ask when the beta is coming soon.
When you stream it please check out the boob physics, heck if the panties are well modeled and shaded and check for any bullshit that makes characters invisible from some camera angles.
>bullshit that makes characters invisible from some camera angles
I hate that in Genshin. Then there is that pointless fart bubble underwater in Fontaine even though there is no such thing while climbing.
The fart bubble was added because it's way way easier to see girl's crotches when swimming and they cant just make the characters invisible when people are going to be controlling them from behind all the time.
And the CCP restrictions got tighter post-launch.
There are mods that remove the fart bubble and the invisibility shit but yeah frick that it shouldn't even be in the game.
>And the CCP restrictions got tighter post-launch.
I doubt it's the CCP, you could stare at your ass all day while swimming in ToF and Snowbreak lets you disable the fade filter with a configuration change. If they are pressured to add that shit I hope they add a convenient "accidental" workaround that disables it.
People like to say that Genshin got tighter standards because it became the face of gaming for China.
I mean, Hoyoverse IS part of the CCP.
Holy shit how horrifying, half of the staff are ugly women too.
>none of them look happy at all
There was some kind of drama after Inazuma and I think it was Tencent who reported them which ended up censoring starting characters.
Nah Mihoyo did that because they are actually omni pandering and they would make the chinese normalgays angry, you know the "no horny" equivalent etc
>I'm a fairly popular streamer/youtuber,
How the hell did you get here?
They all come here.
already 7 days in and you Black folk didn't even bother to OCR TL the footage

found this on tieba, not sure if legit or not
God I can't wait for the maids, I know they can't help themselves. There will be maids and it's just a matter of time.
If manjuu confirms:
>coop
>rare mounts/pokemon hunting
or any of these mmo like progression systems i would be worried for the upcoming other 3D gacha like wuwa and ZZZ
I'm 99% sure they have some sort of house system and decoration already in the backburner, AL has that.
>>rare mounts/pokemon hunting
You can bet on this. Housing will be a Harvest Moon farm. As for coop I think something like pet battles might be on the menu. Maybe even dragon races.
racing would be kind of wonky and laggy for anyone with just over 130 ms
They managed to do races in ToF so I assume competent devs would be able to do it as well and I got a big WoW: Dragonflight vibe from the flying they got in AP.
Blumine my beloved
>You can bet on this.
no you cant, its gonna be gacha
>coop
>house decor
you just didn't pay attention at the trailer, it will have those
Wow I didn't notice that 0/0 at the top there, so it's actually gonna have co-op. but I wonder if it will be in the housing place only or if you can co op in open world too?
Like in the old facebook farm. You can come and fertilize my soil bwo.
She reminds me of Fuwawa for some reason. Very breedable.

>completely different games

>ROLEPLAYING games
bro....
The R in RPG has lost its meaning, people call shit like Paper Mario an RPG, bro you aren't playing any role there, there are no options or choices. Most RPG's are linear adventure games with stats and equipment.
Actual role playing games are very few.
>Most RPG's are linear adventure games
Those are action adventure games moron.
Is Pokemon an RPG?
I can already see Manjuu losing their identity with this. Enjoy your sinking ship while i wait for a new game that's made by and for real men.
That's ironic for you to say while eating nexon slop
It's a league of its own and you know it. Troons can fill my spot for all i care, it'll change nothing.

oops, there you go
My brother, neither do I. I just found the machine translated helldivers copypasta from Tieba (or Weibo, fricked if I know the source) funny. I think dolphin means shipshitter or cuckposter in chinese or something?
I accept your apology for your AI slop. Hope you enjoy getting into art

Here are the pitfalls I hope Azur Promilia avoids
>endless filler dialogue (mainly NPC dialogue)
>rushed story elements
>world inconsistencies (aesthetics, lore contradictions)
>linear exploration
>SFX clutter
>floaty combat
>damage sponges
>endless china wank
>janky movement
>feMC
it will probably have some degree of literally all of those, you are flying too high with your imagination
filler dialogue (mainly NPC dialogue)
I think this is unavoidable.
story elements
Remains to be seen.
inconsistencies (aesthetics, lore contradictions)
Remains to be seen.
exploration
It's gonna be open world so like Genshin
>>SFX clutter
There will be clutter, look at the video bot you and your pet dog attack at the same time.
combat
Animations looked like they had weight behind them
sponges
Remains to be seen.
china wank
We need more information but I imagine we can't escape that as well
movement
Movement looked clean and responsive
>>feMC
Depends on how loud CN players are
>It's gonna be open world so like Genshin
Genshin is very linear despite being open world. You cannot progress unless you explore in the exact order they laid out.
>Pic
Holy shit Janus is in?!
>reached the stage of bargaining
Lmao
Lol even.
Out of those the one I hop they avoid the most is the endless filler dialogue. That shit actually drags games down, all games. No one actually likes it and it's completely unnecessary. Just wrangle the writers and don't let them bloat the game with trash and the game will be fine.
SFX clutter is annoying but tolerable, it doesn't ruin the game as much as excessive dialogue because it's only a minor annoyance during combat but I'd still love to see them avoid it.
Janky movement sucks but it really depends on what you consider janky, I've seen some people who can never be pleased with movement but a line still needs to be drawn at some point and some games actually suck at that.
Damage sponges are not terrible, better than enemies made of paper that die to one hit. If they can't hit a sweet spot I'd rather at least have enemies that let me do a rotation than mobs that instantly die like Genshin's.
China wank...it can get very cringe and tiresome but it' tolerable to an extent.
Rushed story, not necessarily bad. As long as it's entertaining. Stories that go absolutely nowhere or boring stories are far worse.
Floaty combat, I have no idea what that means. Also bold of people to assume there will be a male MC at all.
>damage sponge
What do you think about a game like l4d2, vermintide or doom? Most enemies die in one hit but they overwhelm you with sheer numbers. Can a system like that work in this kind of game, assuming phones can handle more than 20 enemies on the screen at the same time?
Those games are built for that sort of playstyle. It's just a different kind of game design.
Even if hypothetically phones could handle as many enemies as it took these games are still open world and even ignoring that they are built around a few abilities and cooldowns being chained together while all those other games are just straight action games or shooters where you can just mow through enemies, blow them apart or shred through them.
I guess a more similar point of comparison would be warriors style games but those are also completely different style of games with just massive waves of fodder there for the OP player to destroy.
I simply hope there won't be a fricking stamina system slapped onto your sprints/dashes/jumps in combat & exploration. It's just so unfun to deal with since the dodge movement in these games typically doesn't even have the Dark Souls style i-frames to make it worth the stamina cost.
The trailer didn't have anything of the sort, even flying which was very similar to WoW Dragonflight flying didn't the charge/stamina system. I think they are going full "fun allowed".
loose mesugaki needs correction!
>promo art gives her heels

Maybe she took them off for that.

LITERALLY AND UNIRONICALLY
where, anywhere, in all the released official promotions so far,
does this in anyway have any relation to Azur Lane?
>Azur
Right here
None so far besides the Azur in the title.
Both have blue hair girls on their CN logos
Lore-wise nothing is related
They can always bring in muh wisdom cube or equivalent
title marketing bait
in the same vein that tokyo xanadu and spirits within has nothing to do with the original series
It's small branding, people see Azur and they can just tell it's by the same company as Azur Lane.
Also it's a way they are owning that up and kind of forces them to commit to their Azur Lane legacy.
They're putting it right there in the title, it shows they're not really ashamed of it and I think that's a good form of assurance.
Not interested in playing Promilia, but I just hope it succeeds otherwise I'll be very disappointed that Manjuu wasted its profits on a dud.
I'm super worried this'll be censored or toned down compared to AL for the global audience. I just want a coomer game with fun combat and big budget pls god
A continent full of women, ripe for the picking
I'll color it later if I have the time
Is this yuri? Or is she offering up the wolfgirl to the player beyond the fourth wall?
My concern with yuri - and I think this shared by everyone who is concerned by letting yuri in - is that it's a gateway drug to allow shipshitters into the game. Shipshitting attract Hoyotrannies. Hoyotrannies demand shit like (non-MC) m*les because they're all closeted homosexuals, m*les attract women, women demand restrictions on what the female characters are wearing, and then sudden what was gonna be a game about cute girls and the occasional cool dude becomes a game about homosexual dragons and their prison lord butt-buddies.
Nice art, you're pretty damn good.
No need for concerns, it will happen.
>Is this yuri?
It was my intent, but I don't mind people having their own interpretations. It was just a funny idea I had.
>concern with yuri
I'm not into any culture war stuff so I've never paid that kinda stuff any mind. I didn't realize how hostile this place could be about yuri until just the last thread, so I probably won't post anything else, yuri or not. Except for maybe the coloring, and then I'm outta here.
Also thank you. I haven't drawn in like a year, but this game lit a fire in me. I'm just that excited about it.
I don't really care about yuri, I just hate the people it attracts. That's the main reason I want the male MC to be the only option,
I'd be pretty bummed out if they removed the female MC. That'd kill any excitement I had for this game because no other gacha offers what it does. But, well, it's just a game, so it wouldn't be the end of the world for me.
I think the ideal scenario is a Priconne scenario where Male and Female MCs are a brother/sister pair that's basically the guy from Priconne and Kokkoro respectively.
Yeah but that will also make yuriBlack folk seethe.
That sounds pretty lame, tbh. If the option is there, I'd rather not have any male main characters full-stop.
CGDCT anime is the only anime I can get into, so the trailer for the game really spoke to me
I get you my guy. It sucks that things aren't how they used to be. CGDCT is my favorite genre by far, but the community surrounding it has changed for the worse. It's gone from the yearning for a place where your homeland is so peaceful that the only concerns are those small things the anime center around, to being claimed by the alphabet people because females are interacting so they must be fricking. When there's e-girl involved, it's a bugspray, but a game like this needs a lot of bugspray to keep alphabet people and toxic feminists out. For better or worse, I find the bugspray more tolerable than the pufferfish. It's unfortunate that they're necessary.
CGDCT has always had yuri implications, what changed is that Ganker got overrun but normalgays, tourists that has no understanding about the culture about the site.
Ganker has always liked anime and yuri, that's been core of the site since start. But normalgays and all the election tourists think that somehow Yuri is connected to LGBT++ shit and therefor they do what they always do and start to fling shit everywhere with the culture war crap.
There's an important note that a lot of normalgays miss culturally, is that yuri relationships are generally seen as childish practice for when they find a boyfriend later on. Chinkshit "yuri" doesn't have these implications, generally (looking at Hoyocucks), and thus misses half of what makes it appealing, the sense of innocence around it all.
Doesn't really affect my like of CGDCT or this game. I'm not the guy saying no FemMC, I'm the guy saying "I'd prefer no FemMC because it brings cancer with it". I'd rather interact with a community filled with the male equivalent of romance novel addicts than the converged mess that is the Hoyocuck community.
Especially since the former would keep it closer to cute girls doing cute things if the devs listen to them, while the latter would turn the game into a reflection of their ugly souls. The worst thing that happens with the haremgays getting pandered to is a bit too much (you) pandering and an abundance of titty monsters. The worst thing that happens if we get the Hoyocuck community is that they decide turning it into a poorly written Otome Game is the best way to appeal to "the wider audience".
I am ready and willing to have this be a game as niche as fricking Snowbreak if it means that we don't get the Hoyocucks. I'd prefer something on the level of Nikke's success, but I don't want Genshin levels of audience. Normalgays ruin fricking EVERYTHING they touch.
>I'd rather interact with a community filled with the male equivalent of romance novel addicts than the converged mess that is the Hoyocuck community.
Fair point. Not a strong point because Genshin's community is shit thanks to it being baby's first Gacha and achieving maximum popularity more than anything else but I get it.
>The worst thing that happens if we get the Hoyocuck community is that they decide turning it into a poorly written Otome Game is the best way to appeal to "the wider audience".
Ok this is an actual stretch lol, if people got what they wanted in Genshin they would have gotten more girls, a skip botton, a story that actually goes anywhere and a fricking endgame. Mihoyo is doing whatever the frick it wants with the game and what players want doesn't mean shit to them. All those surveys they send out are a joke and they probably do them just to give people the illusion that they listen.
If you actually want to filter the shittiest people from any community what you really need isn't male protagonists, it's e-girls and breasts. Many shitty people also play with the male protagonist. e-girls specially are the actual filters plus fanservice or just blatant pandering in general which can include yuri pandering if the two girls are cute and it's obviously done because it's hot. The people who actually shit up communities are more likely to stay away from a game if they see that. For example in Genshin Beidou x Ningguang is popular among them because it's "tasteful" aka they don't actually do shit but if they just sexed them up and made them more blatantly fanservice it would actually be a turnoff for them.
This is how it works with anime too. The filter isn't the sex of the protagonist the portrayal of the girls.
There are a ton of straight romance series that attract those people just as there's a lot of yuri that filters them.
The key filter is how blatant and gross they get.
Nikke is for (You) pandering and it pulls 30m+ a month because this is what the players want. Imagine if it was a 3d game like AP.
How often do players have to see the male protagonist in that game?
Is he a playable unit?
I mean, it's what happened to Genshin, so that's what I put as the "worst case". I get your point, and it's why I only really "lean against" FemMC, rather than join the schizos in "Male Only". There's other bugsprays available, but Manjuu did a really good job with harem-pandering before with Azur Lane. I also find harem pandering super comfy, I loved Negima back in the day and Slow Life Farming is just about the only trash Isekai I can tolerate.
Back in the day, what you'd call yuribait today WAS yuri. I think I'm just showing my age here, lmao.
Romcoms and Harem should be same level above Isekai. Isekai use harem to boost their appeal, and the Venn Diagram of Romcoms and Harem aren't a CIRCLE, but...
Harem getting big is rare, I don't see it happen very often.
Meanwhile there's a big isekai every other season and some of the biggest series have been romcom.
>Male Only
Is the one sure way to avoid GF2 situation. AP is not getting the normie Genshin or HSR playerbase. It's getting disillusioned waifugays from those two games. Manjuu's core playerbase is Nikke, BA and AL. Those are the people who DONT have a 3d game yet and are waiting for something. This is where the money is. If they just copy Genshin they will fail.
Agreed
All those games lack male characters meanwhile you use them as examples of what people want when you ask for a male character in the game???
That's like saying people like vegan food because a bunch of vegan restaurants are popular so they should add meat to everything.
You didn't understand my point. It was a very easy to understand point. You just want to seethe and shitpost that people don't want you in their community.
The trap that people are falling into is that
>All/Most characters seen on screen are female
>The player character is male
For all of those games. Nikke has the Commander's model appear as 'yon ordinary Korean man' a handful of times, and we just got Blue Archive's Sensei (though it's not super consistent in depiction of him anyways). AL has a male commander who we never see.
The conflict is "which is more true to the spirit of that genre". Is it more true to have it only be female characters, as we've seen before, but run the risk of LGBT shipshitting and invasion by Hoyotrannies? Or is it more true to have a male player character that serves as the player's point of view, so that (you) pandering can be maximized... but now there's a dude there.
Personally, I think Snowbreak stumbled into the best answer if you were to design something from the ground up. All of the characters you take on your adventures are female, but the point of view character is a male and you run around minding the base and interacting with the waifus as him.
Both options are valid. To some people the idea of being a male character surrounded by girls feels good so they want a natural extension of that with a playable male character fully rendered in 3D they can see and project on. They enjoy the immersive experience.
But to others the appeal of those games is the visual overload of female characters without any guys in sight so adding a male character as the playable protagonist changes the fundamental experience of the game because, it doesn't matter if he is meant to represent them because it's still just another male character who will be in the game with the girls and they don't see themselves as him they see the playable character as just another character in the game.
Purely from a gameplay first perspective having that option is the most logical choice.
There isn't a single argument against the option that doesn't bring up the "community" and its impact on how the person feels about sharing the same game with them.
If it was just sharing the game with them, I'd not give a rat's ass about it. What I'm concerned with is if the "pufferfish" get loud enough that the devs listen to their opinions and turn the game to shit for the rest of us. If we can get enough bugspray to keep them away between breasts and sexualized e-girls, then I'd be down to have a FemMC option. But I'm not sure that will be enough, they're the sort who'd see some types of "bugspray" in a game with gameplay they like and launch a crusade.
This is what happened pretty much. You have no idea how much I'd love to go back to 2014 being able to discuss shows like Is The Order a Rabbit or Kiniro Mosaic without mentally ill subhumans from Twitter trying to hijack those shows or the mentally ill Black person who feels threatened because there is some yuri implication on the show and that somehow makes him feel cucked. Now I can't win because if I say I like those shows the freaks with pronouns on bio tell me I support them and the freaks that feel cucked tell me I should kill myself for wanting to see cute girls doing cute things and that it makes me a cuck subhuman troony for using a female character in a game.
Yeah. Like I could not give a single frick about what random actual trannies on twitter think, but what irks me is when newhomosexuals on Ganker start to parrot this thing.
They don't realize they are doing EXACTLY what the trannies on twitter want to achieve by grouping up everyone that likes "X" thing as trannies or troony lovers and letting the trannies "hijack" the community.
There's more than 1 poster here anon.
this is called being terminally online and oversocialized
if you reach a point where the opinions and discussions of random strangers online far away from you and with no real tangible impact on anything can ruin the things you used to enjoy you have fricked up and need to disconnect for a while
it's a very weak mindset, even the schizos here can be easily ignored
That's... I'm sorry, you don't get me at all.
It's not especially difficult to tailor my own experience, whether it be in the things I watch or games I play. I can play a game the way I want to play it and not care what anyone else thinks. It's not like I'm going out of my way to dictate how everyone else has to play it.
And that's not what manjuu audience wanted. Please get this into your head and stop whining.
I'm the same as this guy.
It's not really yuri itself, it's the people that it attracts at this current point. Lotta fine people like it, but it draws flies like honey or whatever the metaphor is, and those guys end up ruining everything for everyone. Alphabet people (as in people with no personality outside of "I'm gay" ) see some hot girl and girl and suddenly think that they're welcome to bring in all their pride shit and drive out the people who are just into some hot girl on girl.
Which is why you see the reactions you're seeing. Blatant self inserts are a sort of bug spray, which is why even if I'd rather just run my harem/beauty pageant like we do in AL and have no m*les whatsoever, the "locked male MC guards the warehouse and protects against pufferfish" has the edge in my book.
>this is the moron who said he'd dust off his tablet
Jesus fricking christ. I thought you guys were kidding about the yurigay shit. I thought he was going to make a shitpost or something about the self-insert guy.
Is that Noire from Hyperdimension Neptunia?
Remember how when you played Zelda BoTW and you encountered the huge flying dragon? Remember going early to the castle and suddenly being locked on by Guardians who assraped you? Genshin didn't have that, didn't have the danger of exploration. I want that. I want danger. I want to stumble somewhere and be like "Oh frick I shouldn't be here" or "What the frick is that?!"
I ditched the main story early and got into all sorts of bullshit shenanigans with enemies higher level than me while I had no party. Didn't last very long but for a brief time I experienced what you describe.
Never played BotW but that sounds interesting. I honestly didn't get what kind of game they're going for with the trailer. Hopefully there's a beta soon.
>danger of exploration
You are talking about the game where morons complain about the story boss fight being too hard and demanded a nerf? Even if it did it would get nerfed to the ground immediately.
I mean look at the threads here, haremgays are in no way better than yurigays in any way. It's always the same when yuri is brought up, some schizo starts screaming and shitting up the entire thread because "of those obnoxious yurigays!" when they're the only ones fricking up the threads.
Yeah sure there exist obnoxious yurigays, but the amount of obnoxious yuri haters by far outweighs them.
I'm strictly speaking about Ganker now of course because I don't give a shit about other communities.
>when they're the only ones fricking up the threads.
We both know that's not actually the case, not sure why you're still trying to change the narrative when nobody believes you.
Go to any Ganker, /vg/ thread or anything like that and post some yuri implication picture or anything yuri related thing and then come back and say that again.
I was talking specifically about this pseudo-general. I saw the shitshow from yesterday when that Black person was calling everyone cucks. You people are not innocent.
This "general" has a dedicated harem schizo posting and spamming the thread like crazy, what the frick are you talking about?
If anything it's the perfect example why haremgays are more obnoxious.
Feel free to point out what he has said. I don't believe anybody on the harem side has ever posted anything that outrageous.
You mean the 1000 posts of him doing
>"OMG GAME WILL DIE UNLESS THEY REMOVE FEMALE MC"!
>China HATES female MC!
>death to all yurigays
>YURItroony YURItroony YURItroony!
>they need to remove female MC or yuritrannies will KILL the game
for thousands of posts.
That's definitely more than one person, because I did some of those posts against the FemMC and the Yuri => Hoyocuck pipeline and definitely fell for the cuckposter's bait, but hardly all of them.
I have indeed said more than one time that I wouldn't try the game unless they remove the FeMC. And have also laughed at the chink screencaps because I find them funny and agree with them. Sorry anon but it's not a single individual.
Frick the female MC and frick you too troony. Keep thinking it's one person.
No one wants you here yuriBlack person. You don't even want to play the game, you just want to continue your shitposting wars and your melty like in the last thread we had.
You have to understand that mentally ill /vg/ kids are actually delusional enough to think the majority of people won't be playing as her. It's best to not try and understand them.
Just look at the replies and my point is already proven
I mean you're not a shipper, are you?
I fricking told you guys
Mom, dad, please stop fighting. I just want to enjoy cute girls without drama or forced shipcuckery in my beauty pageant.
i have never seen an unironic heterogay spreading their mental illness outside of Ganker. meanwhile, the yuriBlack person alphabet troons have infested every hobby in every corner of the internet community i see
>i have never seen an unironic heterogay spreading their mental illness outside of Ganker
Why the frick would I care what those people do outside of Ganker? Why are you interacting with Reddit, discord, twitter and those sites in the first place?
You don't. Developers do.
And if those devs listen to the "wrong kind" of morons on those sites then you shouldn't even support the devs in the first place.
Whining about morons on other social sites here accomplishes nothing except fricking up every single thread you go to.
What are you gonna do if Manjuu listens to the chinks?
What will I do if Manjuu fricks over their entire game if they listen to a few loudmouths on a Chink forum?
Like most people not even play the game because having a male MC in a game like that is too much of cuck behavior for me.
Wow anon...
If the devs fricks over their vision, principles and design for a game they are creating because some random people whines on social media they are not worth supporting.
Them removing a female MC because morons whine on social media would be no different from them starting to do the entire LGBT++ crap pandering because morons also whine on Twitter. It just proves that they have no backbone or principles and let the community and vocal minority dictate how they design their games.
But I also know they won't remove the female MC because no dev would that moronic.
>There's an important note that a lot of normalgays miss culturally, is that yuri relationships are generally seen as childish practice for when they find a boyfriend later on. later on.
No it's not lmao, what kind of headcanon is this?
I don't know how to break it for you, anon. But yuri is way more niche than harem pandering. I honestly thought you were shitposting all these times you said they were gonna lose the vast majority of their players lol.
Well, if we're talking about popularity, then the order would go
>CGDCT
>harem slop
>yuri
AP, as presented, is made up of the first 2. And the 3rd is just a byproduct. All together makes a decently sized market, but take out any of the first 2 and it's fricked.
Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'd disagree with you on the order, but maybe I'm just old. Haremslop is the king of those 3 by far in terms of appeal, it's not even close. There's a reason why harem shows/manga have always ranked high in popularity, why Negima had to be written as a haremslop up to the tournament arc (where they pivoted to battle shonen in the best way). HaremCHADS dominated the market, and dominate the market so heavily that you barely even notice the fact that most of the big shows and manga have at least some harem elements to it.
CGDCT should not be underestimated, not at all, but it's a bit more niche than haremslop. Yuri is like, a niche of that niche.
Looking at this season of anime it's clearly harem
Harem Isekai is the current king for many, many years and it looks like AP is just that. Schizos demanding yuri shipping don't know how Manjuu operate.
No no popularity wise it goes
>Shounen
>HUGE POWER GAP
>Mecha(doesn't matter what kind)
>Rom coms
>Isekai
>Harem
>CGDCT
>Yuri
>Yaoi
Old shounens are dead. Now it needs to have Isekai + at least implied Harem.
Shounen is shounen.
One Piece, Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, Chainsawman, JJK,Boruto, it's all still shounen.
I'd even argue Frieren is a shounen too, not at the start but certainly as the series goes on.
>No it's not lmao, what kind of headcanon is this?
I'm not sure if you're blind or just trolling. Every anime that has yuri-pandering that isn't explicitly yuri emphasizes how childish and clingy the girls are being with one another, which is reflective of the cultural views on romantic friendships between girls. Shows like Nanoha are (or at least were) the exception, not the rule, and even that had the "Nanoha and Fate will probably grow out of it" stuff (until they didn't).
The purity behind it, the love without consummation, and the innocence is the appeal. Going beyond, treating it seriously, that's getting into LGBT+ shit.
that's called yuribait, which is often targeted for men. and troons are mostly into yuri without the implications which is why they are not likely to touch this game outside of a small minority
>Often targeted for men
Are the anons here so mentally fricking moronic that they think this game is being made by some femcel that uses NGA and Tieba to spam homosexual art? This game is made by the fricking Azur Lane dev team, anything they make here, including but not limited to, yuri bait and other interactions, are entirely for (You). Any other delusions on how if any of the female characters interacts with the other characters is because they want to cuck you is pure and unfiltered moronation.
No one will be for (You) in Promilia. It's clearly a Yuri game you mentally ill self inserter.
See, this is exactly how I would word a bait. have a nice day bait homosexual.
>Game from Manjuu
>The studio that profusely apologized for yuri implications in the Azur Lane anime
>Not having (You) pandering
I mean you can make a pig fly by throwing it out of a catapult, but...
Please understand some people have unironic culture war brainrot and it clouds their judgement.
They can't see the cheesy fanservice game company when it's in front of them because they have been obsessed with Genshin for years and so utterly traumatized by its community they have PTSD and Sumeru yaoi flashbacks whenever they see the trees shake.
Manjuu devs are and will listen to their community like they always do. Some loudmouth schizo on Ganker seething that he wants yuri and lgbt ships is irrelevant and always will be.
>because one SEA anon was posting Aether x Raiden and it pissed yurihomosexuals off because she has a ship with Yae Miko.
moron, that anon used to be a janny and forced his Aether threads for months until it got reported and lost his janny powers.
So because one Aethergay triggered you, what almost 2 years ago? You feel the need to spam threads with pagpag shitposting? Get some help freak. This is why we don't want your kind in AP and want the MC to be locked in as male. No one gives a frick about yuri or self inserting. We just don't want YOU in our Manjuu community.
Majority of Chinese wants to lock the Male MC as the only canon MC while the FemMC is playable just as free gacha girl. You guys can keep crying all you want but Chinks always wins and chink companies always listen to to them, especially Manjuu listing to waifuchads and even more so after the GFl2 fiasco. Guess what, the game will be a success regardless of your shitty doompost yurishitters, self insert games like BA and Nikke still a huge success in JP and Kr and CN market is the biggest market for gacha shit and they care about the opinion of chinks the most.
So who are (You) picking as the main character then?

Yes, we can't have nice things when yuriBlack folk latch on to something in a thread.
Your average normalgay uses "ya'll", wants trans or openly homosexual/bi characters, celebrates gay month each year and calls anyone who disagrees a bigot or whatever buzzword is currently trending. Stop acting like normalgays are the ones who like cgdct and (You) pandering. You can exactly tell who is a normalgay in this thread by how they demand things you can easily find in a twitter post.

>>this peak the interests of people watching the trailer because they want a female MC
Kek.
Yeah i swear they don't even bother doing background research.
The characters looks pretty tame so far. I don't see see how this game is any different compared to hoyogames beside the 100% playable female characters
I guess I look at them as they were early Genshin character designs (the good kind) but censorship free. Still, if they can go to Azur Lane or NIKKE levels I welcome it with open arms.
Hahahaha. Genshin doesn't have cleavages, it doesn't even show the shape of breasts anymore. Any character with a cleavage or some sort of visible breast shape is from 2.0 or older. The "big" breasts in genshin are medium at best. Genshin is under some sort of shorts decree, every girl has to wear shorts. The few exceptions have untextured tights to minimize any sex appeal. They throw out an exception every now and then but they are increasingly rare.
If you actually take an autistic coomer look at Genshin you'd see how bad the situation is. AP doesn't stand out compared to other gacha with premium character designs like even AL itself or Nikke but it's like an 8 if those games are a 10 meanwhile old Genshin was a 7 and current Genshin is a 4.
All to "respect the opinions of the female playerbase". Not because of censorship, not because of the CCP's marching orders. No, to "respect the opinions of the female playerbase". Frick 'em.
Cope, it's what Mihoyo wants.
Are you a Genshin or Honkai player?
While the designs have certainly changed, the cut-off date is not 2.0, what are you even thinking?
Cut off date was Yelan who was one of the last patches of 2.0. He was absolutely right.
No, 2.0 is just 2.0, as the very first Inazuma patch. Yelan was in 2.6 or something, which obviously was after 2.0.
And it's not like the girls in Sumeru didn't show any skin (though not much in the cleavage department), it's Fontaine where they really toned down the designs.
>No, 2.0 is just 2.0, as the very first Inazuma patch. Yelan was in 2.6 or something, which obviously was after 2.0.
Are you truly, truly moronic or was this just a joke?
It is. Inazuma gave us Yoimiya with the biggest breasts among the hebes wrapped up in bandages and with actual cleavage. It gave us Raiden with her breasts fully exposed on top. It gave us Kokomi with actual tummy and belly button. It gave us Yelan with the biggest breasts in the game and an outfit that's all leather and see through fabric. It gave us Shenhe with the biggest ass in the game in a tight leather skinsuit.
Sure they gave Shenhe a napkin covering her chest and made sure her breasts had 0 physics outside the idle animation. They managed to hide Yelan' cleavage with her necklace. They gave Ayaka disgusting granny bloomers. Sara had among the biggest breasts in the game but we barely see half of them because she also got a fricking bib covering them. But overall 2.0 got a lot of good shit, it's the period where they started to transition away from fanservice.
3.0 gave us Nilou with no actual tummy and no belly button, likely the result of the lesson they learned from Shenhe's controversy. Dehya who has laughable untextured and unshaded shorts and sports a bikini that shows no underboob and no clevage and no sideboob just defeating the whole point of it. And that's pretty much it. 3.0 had nothing good.
4.0 gives us Furina who is cute but she's very much not taking any risks with her design, Navia is beautiful but they made sure to cover her chest so well people joked she had a single boob before she came out because she has no fricking cleavage and a small chest. Chevreuse has untextured tights with no shading. Chiori actually has very good panties and thigh highs but they are also unshaded. Comparing the asses of someone like Noelle or Ganyu to the likes of Chevreuse and Chiori is night and day.
Nilou, Dehya and Candace still show more skin than most, if not all, of the older designs.
It's really a shame that Nilou doesn't, but the other 2 do show their belly buttons.
Still above what we got in Fontaine.
Sex appeal isn't just about skin. Fischl barely shows any skin but she's still one of the sexiest and blatantly fanserviced designs in the game because she looks like she's wearing a mix of underwear and lingerie, her boobs are visible with individual cups and see through fabric and we can see her panties and ass through pantyhose . Meanwhile Nilou doesn't let us see her thighs, her belly button, cleavage, even the shape of her boobs. If you want a better example look at Yanfei who also shows tummy but has a shorter skirt and has actual cleavage and armpits. Or Kuki who had tighter shorts and also shows tummy with belly button and has see through cleavage similar to Fischl. Candace shows skin, sure, but she's all covered around her ass and chest. Meanwhile Rosaria's breasts are fully covered but with very thin cloth and she basically looks bare chested and her fishnets and pantyhose are fully shaded to give her ass a round shape.
No, but skin is one of the first things that gets taken away when they want to reduce fan-service. Dunno what you mean about Nilou not showing her thighs, you mean in the game from behind?
I'm saying skin isn't the ultimate factor alone, shape and visibility are a big deal too.
Rosaria's breasts bouncing around aren't the same as Dehya's fully covered even though neither's skin is shown.
Fischl's see through outfit or Yelan's skintight leather are lewder than Candace's outfit which shows skin but doesn't do much with it. Even Clorinde has a higher commitment to fanservice than her because her shirt is tight and they went out of their way to showcase her chest in her outfit.
Another example look at Lynette and her chest, it shows skin but there is no cleavage so the skin isn't doing much by itself.
After the restrictions on them got tighter some types of skin became off limits.
Cleavage seems completely banned, but they can still show exposed backs.
Jannies seem to like the traffic. Let's make more early threads once this hits autosage.
Did we single handedly revive this dead board? LMAO
>Mihoyo this, Mihoyo that
You gays don't even play Genshin. You think you know the game from what the community of freaks says about it.
>If you don't do this one thing I like, this game is going the way of GFL2!!!!!!!!!!!11111111
Shut the frick up Black person. Stop using that game as a magic card to push for your canon delusional fantasies. Just because Micca was moronic about their own game, it doesn't mean shit for anything else. Mentioning GFL2 on any other game should be a permaban for intentionally trolling and derailing threads.
I did play Genshin tho. Eula was my main.
When was the last time you even read the story of Genshin that wasn't a leak by some freak on twitter with pronouns on bio? 90% of the things the community says about the story or their characters is simply downright not true or misleading at best, and the rest 10% are blatantly delusional takes. I'm not going to go into detail because it's incredibly mentally draining going through the amount of lies and twisted shit the Genshin community says but in a nutshell it's incredibly disturbing. I say disturbing because when you play the story and experience the characters in game, they have absolutely nothing to do with what the community claims. It takes a truly twisted mind to selectively take bits of story and lore to create this narrative about what they want to believe in as the truth.
except you don't need to play the game to know the development going on between the characters, gameplay and the devs intentions just by looking at them. and a lot of us DID play it before it became worse with it
You are the one seething and shitposting. It's not a game for you. You would know it if you had any idea what Manjuu is about.
It's the perfect game for me you mean. I played Azur Lane slop for almost 3 years and I got tired of the horrible grind and "gameplay". Even if I did love plenty of the characters (I still miss my Shimakaze) everything else was so fricking terrible that I'm glad I stopped wasting so many hours on that trash. Now finally I'm getting something that is an actual game with an only girl cast and actual gameplay mechanics made by the same devs. Of fricking course I'm going to play it, and just because I also enjoy Hoyoverse games no one will stop me from enjoying this. Not the Black folk on this thread mindbroken by Twitter users who LARP as playing Genshin by reading leaks, not the chinks having a melty over male NPCs or the FeMC, and by God not fricking reddit calling this game incel bait.
>You enjoy Homoverse games
Renounce your faith RIGHT THE FRICK NOW
You will be welcomed with open arms as a brother when you do, but unless you admit everything Mihoyo has made and will make is trash, you are not welcome here.
Why are you posting 2 page essays seething about Manjuu's community if everything is fine, no one will stop you etc. Are you lost /gig/er?
Azur Lane has peak designs and some very fun events but the gameplay in general is awful and the story never really felt all that interesting.
My favorite experience with the game is the idol event where the two yandere psychos teamed up to frick everyone else up.
Now that was REAL kino.
If AP manages to have similar silly and funny events I will be a very happy player.
Now you're samegayging and seething. Its such a "minority" that it forced the devs to make an official statement.
And what was the official statement?
>moron believes fem mc is on the same level as male gacha and cuckery disinformation.
You're just proving my point. I accept your concession.
No amount of your impotent malding will change anything. Go back to your troony hoyo games, samegay.
Holy shit Mihomosexual gays are mentally ill. I really hope this game end up filtering all those gays
Nobody knows why but shipping became a schizo magnet in Genshin.
>X with Y (good)!
>X with the MC(you,male)!
>X with Y(bad, you get cucked)!
At this point a lot of it devolved into trolls trolling trolls just a big chain reaction of morons but there are a few unironic schizos there too who actually believe it and take it personal and those are the main driving force behind the whole mess. It's very compulsive, the moment any characters interact in the game it will happen again the same cycle of bait and seething, even if no one gives a frick they will just reply to themselves to sock puppet the seething fans they want to tick. Mental illness plays a big role
It wouldn't be so bad if Hoyo didn't pander to the twittertroons.
You are doing exactly what Twitter Black folk do when shipping characters. Here is the actual context so you can see how mentally ill shippers are.
>Topaz and Aventurine are both workers for a big company called The IPC
>Topaz last work assigned by the IPC went to shit because she was a softie and couldn't frick over people with money
>Aventurine is ranked higher than her on the IPC internal ranking
>But Aventurine is basically a slave since his life was literally bought by the IPC until he pays off his debt
>Aventurine itself is addicted to gambling when he discovered he was good at it
>He decided to take advantage of his good luck to make crazy gambles and make more money than typical and win impossible cases for the IPC
>Topaz is impressed by the good luck this Black person always had
This is where (You) come and can decide if you are impressed by his luck or just allude to his good luck to how he works with the other parties involved. Yet somehow this pandering to shippers. Genuinely, FRICK YOU.
How can you write all this things down and not realizing you're worse than them?
I literally just explained what happened in game instead posting a fan fic of how Hoyoverse panders to shippers. You are free to twist and corrupt whatever part of the story you want, but it doesn't change the fact that YOUR head canon isn't true.
He's a schizo, he can't understand anything you try to explain and his only reaction is going to be further deflection.
Why are you samegayging?
I'm literally not. I'm glad you got exposed as the resident schizo.
Said the troon writing essays about HSR and about how he's seething at Manjuu's players kek
He doesn't care if you argue in good faith
No, it would still be just as bad. Schizo's don' react proportionately to things they are crazy and get obsessed over shit first and then anything will be enough to set them off.
Trying to avoid giving them anything to work with is futile because the will always find a way.
I don't have time to samegay unlike you moron.
>Prove itself a moron who REALLY believes fem mc is on the same level as male gacha and cuckery disinformation.
I honestly didn't even notice the blue girl was the main character when I first saw the trailers
This will be a huge release, the fact that this game got thousands of replies and people kept tabs open to discuss it on fricking /vmg/ of all places speaks more about what Azur Promilia means for the gacha culture dynamic than the quality of the product itself.
I need this game to be the one. WuWa proved it's not it by being a shitty low quality Genshit clone and Mugen is not fantasy.
Watcha doin'? Nice game you have there. It's our game now. Leave our game alone.
>Their trailer show female MC as more people clearly enjoy that
>people that like female MC's shouldn't be playing the game and they are in the wrong
>whiny loud minorities crying on the Chink reddit that wants everything pandered to them are in the right
How are they in any way different than the pufferfish? They outright want the devs to change their entire game just to pander them.
Harempag melty
Jesus Christ bros, /vmg/ really came alive...
/vgm/ soon.
Samegay some more
The reason I want the female mc removed is only because I want hoyokeks out. They'll shit up the community like they are shitting up this and the previous thread and the actual playerbase will end up leaving while those hoyo homosexuals will return to their caves and gloat that nothing can beat shit rail or genshit. You know it's true.
It will get even worse when their furry game comes out.
Oh Christ I forgot that AP also has animals so furries will latch onto us as well. Still anything is probably better than Hoyokeks.
I almost tried to correct this guy in good faith because AP has no furries it has kemonomimi and that's an important distinction for weebs but then I realized he's just the fricking schizo again replying to himself and going on about hoyokeks. Might need to filter that word.
It has pokemon, some humanoid if you check the gameplay video and many of them have humanoid anime faces like that dragon. Also yeah, he's right, frick hoyo.

Is this about shaking breasts? What's a dishwasher in CN lingo?
>What's a dishwasher in CN lingo?
Dishwasher is an artist and has done quite a few characters on Azur Lane
https://twitter.com/Dishwasher1910
Manjuu seems to like him because he made 3 UR characters on AL
he also made several Hentai art of his own AL characters
but the global community doesn't like him too much, because he's a bit of an attention prostitute and also draws his Commender with black skin
*Commander
>also draws his Commender with black skin
We are going to be shitposted into orbit.
>also draws his Commender with black skin
he is not white so I don't see how there is any problem there. Unless he draw them on actual NTR scenario.
He's Vietnamese with a tan so it's just him self-insert too hard
God I can't wait for the east to finally get culturally enriched so they can get over their groid fetish. Not a single one of these artists has ever seen a black person in real life.
Oh. Ok. I will now buy your game.
https://kemono.su/patreon/user/2648863
His design are not bad he just draws like shit. Exemplified by how his characters drawn by another person look alright.
>DischBlack person
The only problem with this Black person is that he always copycat shit based on current [popular] things and he does it really excessively, all with the gaudy sfx and accessories. All style, no substance. God save us all.
i'll give the game some credit: from the first trailer i didn't sense any of the characters being designed by him so maybe manjuu ha him on a leash
Yeah it sure sounds like he's talking about the challenges of making huge Azur Lane sized breasts in 3D look good. Something which is a real struggle and if you have taken interest in the topic you'd know what he means.
It gives me a lot of hope to see someone as openly horny in charge with a clear interest in pushing the limit of 3D in charge.
Not the biggest fan of his designs, Azur Lane has far better designers. But he's ok. I hope someone else is there to help represent flat/e-girls too though, the game gotta have girl variety.

Yes.
False equivalent. Male is the whole tree. Femoid is that one stinky loud bug worming on its trunk.
If it was it would be fricking moronic. That men spend money silently isn't the same as them spending money by default without reason. Take the tree comparison - This is like watering the leaves while the roots go untended and rot away underneath.

that's actually refreshing and will earn them more money from gamers who are tired of pandering to women
nice, gonna give manjuu all my money now
>Manisraelite really going out of their way to piss off women
HOLY FRICKING BASED. If they keep doing that this game is going to be a huge success
m-mihomosisters how do we c-cope???
>piss off women
You do know that like 20% of azur lane is women, 50% of the illustrators are also women right?
You can tell when someone is shitposting when they mix men with haremchads, and women with screeching feminists. I guess that's how it works in the west? Most feminists in the west are male homosexuals.
Frick off
Women have otome games
>Nexon removing any kind of feminist animation footage on their games
>Shift Up fired their feminist workers
>now Manjuu removed woman pandering
I will now buy your pakejis
Nice. People always meme about speaking with your wallet, but look at the monthly earnings of GFL2 when the cuckery was laid bare, versus the ones from Snowbreak when they added fanservice skins and pandering affection system.
There's one thing people want from these games.
As a wise anon said
>make gacha games, win gacha game prizes
wow, Snowbreak will remove male NPCs
CN players are really want full female games right now (without counting the male prota)
Tower of fantasy did something similar, and aether gazer stopped releasing male units entirely a while ago. Is just that easy, but morons wanted to follow the genshin omnipandering model without understanding it (not to mention that it panders to everyone except the harem crowd).
QRD on TOF? Isn't it illegal to remove an already established character?
I don't understand the significance of this. Why would a logistics officer matter at all? Aren't they in the background or off-screen managing resources and ordering pallets of Snowbreak pellets or whatever the world eats? Doing logistics? I don't play the game so there's likely some context i'm missing.
There is people who believes that those Logistics can become playable characters in the future.
How? Isn't Snowbreak one of those games where the playable characters have super special strong powers that are literally only able to be possessed by females?
Character design for the female logistics are really good and there is something about lore that i speed read Also the game almost had a playable male before the game release and he got removed after chinese playerbase complained
>all females
>Fanservice
>one of them literally and canonically smooches you on the lips while in bed.
If only their 3D assets had higher quality. It also doesn't help that the shooter scene is mostly occupied by western e-sport cancer but maybe it's for the better that Snowbreak remains unpopular. The bigger you are, the more you're subjected to moronic corpo regulations.
>If only their 3D assets had higher quality
It's clear that they are not a big studio, but at least they are getting better and better in every update
>Also the game almost had a playable male before the game release and he got removed after chinese playerbase complained
From what I remember that wasn't like a gacha character. That was your actual MC which in the game is a full 3D Male model that you actually use around the "home base" to interact with your goals. All him being playable meant was that you could squad up with your lemmings.
>That was your actual MC
No it wasn't, his name was ling yi and he was a playable character in chapter 7 that got removed, he also had all the skills and animations of a gacha character, including having a Lobby idle, something that is exclusive to the gacha characters and not NPC's. Snowbreak at early stages wanted to be like genshin, but looks like the sales on the beta was so mediocre and the chinese people complaining made them change to (you) pandering, something that end up saving the game from EOS.
>look it up
>first video the dude calls you Adjutant
What the frick. I clearly misheard or misunderstood then. What a fricking disaster that would've been.
>What a fricking disaster that would've been.
From what i heard about the beta sales, it was really a fricking disaster, but at least the devs was quick and smart enough to make the changes to save the game.
>New devs have to realize that trying to replicate Mihoyo too much will just lead to failure if you aren't some huge corpo of the same caliber. Just copy SOME of the homework, focus on ONE (1) audience instead of multi-pandering bullshit, and bam, you have a gacha with a secured fanbase carrying you for some years.
So much this, devs trying to replicate Genshin success always end up backfiring and with them backtracking later, literally just focus in one fanbase
That's a horrible idea, snowbreak took a while to have its comeback with people dooming that the game would EOS in 6 months and games like GFL2 literally fricking died because of it
>and games like GFL2 literally fricking died because of it
Huh? What do you mean it died? Anime XCOM is the one thing I've been wanting to play for years.
you can still try it if you want, but it copied genshin's shitty gacha system and there is ntr cuckery involved
dont say i didnt warn you
>and there is ntr cuckery involved
Ehh, these words get passed around like street prostitutes so I honestly doubt there's such thing unless there's content about marrying one of your characters, and no current-day gacha implements true love relationship systems.
Not him, but i'm genuinely shocked you haven't heard about this or understand how bad it was. It was so massive other gacha started curtailing the way they do things. Azur Lane cancelled a collab as an aftershock of this.
It wasn't exactly NTR but they did ship a male NPC with a playable doll you roll for. It got removed but the outcry was so legendary it affected the entire gacha industry.
> they did ship a male NPC with a playable doll you roll for
Holy shit really? That's like financial suicide if you're in the gacha business. Are there screencaps? Videos? I can't read chinese.
I unironically and actively ignore content drama and info from games I can't play yet, usually because people tend to be moronic and blow shit out of proportion (like the whole Nahida and Scaramouche thing) but this is the first time I hear about devs shooting themselves on the foot this hard, jesus frick.
Ignore them, they're just making shit up. Gfl2 is a good game. Manjews just hate competition.
Frick off
They literally added a copy of Talmud in game by the way
bro Girl's Frontline 2 is literally a suicide squad-tier flop, it failed so hard it might kill the entire company. No one is worried about competing with GFL2 lmao companies are just scared they might frick up and bring chink wrath upon them.
going back to your roots shitler?
No videos, people found out about it from datamining voice files in the game's third beta. When the game released they sex-changed the male NPC to female but the damage was already done and chinks just memed on it.
>datamined voice files changed before official release
Oh that's not as bad as I thought it would be lol, sure I see why the chinks made a deal about it but I imagined something way worse. I'll still try it out if a global version ever comes out.
The drama it was way more than just that and devs also kept trowing jabs at their own player base by putting ester egg about this NPC, feminist books, israeli books , they are still rewriting the story since more girls was supposed to be shipped with others characters and every event for the game now has 0 story content and the whole concept of the game being 10 years in the future and every girl that you could marry in the first game just left you to live their own life.
Well shit.
You see, this is what you get when your market is mostly composed of deranged asian otaku, you just don't get room to be creative, even less if you're in China. I can understand that they wanted to try something "different" (like the world moving on without you, whatever.) but the fact remains that the biggest gacha consumers don't like this type of content and won't tolerate fictional characters finding happiness on their own. That only works in standalone games where you get your own assigned wives to choose from so you can cheer on side NPC relationships. I personally wouldn't care because I don't suffer from unhealthy waifu addiction but goddamn you can't just shit on your fanbase like this if you want their money, what a fiasco.
Still gonna try it out though, whenever it gets a global release, if it gets one.
I wouldn't be surprised if Mica closes because of this. Girls' Frontline IP seems like a poisoned well these days.
The entire concept of GF2 was doomed from the start. Mica announced this as a random last minute surprise way back in like 2016 or some shit as the final reveal of a live stream for Girls' Frontline 1 out of the blue. I remember it well. Backdrop of the livestream was a big moon or something. They thought it would be a cool surprise, announcing a sequel before the current game everyone was playing had even begun to approach a climax, and would leave the playerbase excited and salivating. They were right, but the excitement and salivation was in pure panic and rage. Every server in every region in every language went into full nuclear doompost meltdown. Immediately. It was catastrophic.
They've always done shit like this. It was long considered a meme that King Chong (Yuzhong, CEO) was an unkillable wienerroach because no matter the controversy, and MICA had them constantly, it never seemed to really affect them. It was a joke that MICA was an artist training camp because all their artists ended up leaving and joining the bigger gacha over random, sometimes petty bullshit. This time it was just too much and really did a number on them.
I'm amazed how fricking moronic MICA is, GFL used to make more money than Azur Lane back in the days, now it's a fricking joke.
what the hell happened, mica was very respected back in the day
Real weird looking back at how beloved Yuzhong was. Just frick up after frick up after nepotism after fricking waterkuma after suisei after turtule soup after artists having drama with each other... shit added up.
Didn't he just recently do art for something? I remember hearing about him recently.
I just remembered that artist drama stuff (I don't want to refer to it as drama as it actually happened), and how several of them ended up working with manjuu and yostar.
Working at mica must be hell if half of what was leaked was truth, combined with all the frick ups.
To think that back in the day I thought that the valkyria chronicles collab and the yostar publishing deal in japan (both cancelled) were the other party mistake, it clearly was mica's moronation at work.
Calling something drama doesn't mean it's fake and is used interchagnably with "controversy," but yeah. Nonstop with them. I remember some anon made it his mission to catalog all gacha drama in /vmg/ and MICA was a mainstay.
>valkyria chronicles collab
The Valk collab actually wasn't their fault. SEGA was pulling some real shady shit with the way the contract was written.
>yostar publishing deal
And that whole fricking mess is something else altogether. There's a god damn 30 page document floating around, a translation of an article doing a deep dive into it, that lays it out.
I don't know about that one being solely sega's fault, they have collaborated with other mobages and no one has had any trouble with them, wouldn't surprise me if mica's lawyer was moronic too and didn't understand how to not get fricked over when writing the terms of the contract.
We only ever ended up getting mica's version of the story though, and we know they are lying fricks.
Maybe so. All those datamined chibis that were already put together and animated were such a damn waste.
Wasting half a year of work for the biggest collab the game never had is such a mica move, at least they are giving me a good laugh as they burn to the ground, and a good wake up call to other mobage companies, only mihoyo players are stupid enough to get cucked and ask for more (and call the rest of the world dumb for not liking eating shit).
What was that one game that issued an official statement that there was no yuri and will never be in their game? I think 2 or 3 more games, other than AP, have made similar statements recently too.
>What was that one game that issued an official statement that there was no yuri and will never be in their game?
I'm pretty sure that was Snowbreak, but i'm not sure.
It was and that cause a storm in their general of yurishitters doomposting the game for like 3 days, funny thing that it was clear that none of the yurigays doomposting in the Snowbreak general actually played the game and even more funny was the snowbreak revenue and players increase after they started to pander to straight males.
No, it was an idol game or something. Can't be bothered to go through /jp/ mobage threads.
Snowbreak did it during a stream I think, just to take the piss on MICA.
this one
Interesting. What's the name of the game? Honestly they should allow some anime girls to be loose as long as they're still for (You). Dykes getting dicked is a godlike tag.
Someone was too horny. Damn I love Abby's design.
It's E.T.E chronicle
Thanks
E.T.E chronicle and Snowbreak both did that I believe.
Some ancient shit for the people.

Lin is such a fricking cutie, too bad she left the CEO position way back in like 2021, but now she is back as a marketing mascot.
When the FRICK is AS109 going to make art for a gacha that's not GFL?
Doesn't he work as an in house artist? Maybe they have him under an exclusivity contract, or one of those anti-competitiveness where you can't make commissions for companies that are considered "competition" (any gacha game).
>I can understand that they wanted to try something "different"
If they really wanted to make something "different" they should have not grabbed a game where you could literally pay to get married with pixels and instead they should have make a new IP, preferable not a gacha too. Another thing to point out about this whole GFL2 fiasco is that the CEO was dumb enough to put a bunch of new blood in the GFL2 team that had no idea about the first game and with the main writer for this game being a feminist, rumors even say that people from GF1 team was the one to leak shit in the first place.
Funniest thing is that the team that made the second game is an entirely different one, to the point that almost all the backstory of the dolls and the lore directly contradicts the ones from the first, showing that the writers didn't even take the time to read the story of the game they are making a sequel of, and have fricked up in more than one time giving the correct gun to the correct doll, apart from fricking up the firearm type, showing that they don't give a frick about an otaku gun franchise.
Absolute shitshow. Then, to make you laugh even more, the CEO admited in the apology video that he didn't supervise the project at all, I imagine he was jerking off to the remake they just released, and clearly doesn't give a frick about the game.
They probably thought that people would just eat whatever shit they dropped anyway and it backfired like crazy in their ass
>Still gonna try it out though, whenever it gets a global release, if it gets one.
Something no one is mentioning is that Tencent gave MICA an ultimatum, from what I heard they told them to get their shit together in the next few months or they would pull the plug and now they have a new drama because one chink made made a winnie the pooh edit with 97s animation and its is possible that the CCP is going go for MICA too now KEK, so we can say that the global version is in danger zone
>winnie the pooh edit
Okay that's comedy kino lmao
I remember 1 chink posting on Reddit an chinese article about Mica getting a 100 million loan from Tencent to make their games and with GF2 being their biggest investment. After the massive flop that was GF2 i see no other ending to Mica other than being absorbed by Tencent, something that Tencent is already know for doing anyway.
Anybody has this video? This shit looks funny as frick
Unironically getting a random male in gacha is one of the worst feelings ever in those games. I rather get a useless material or weapon than a male character, even if he is meta. Reason why i stopped playing gacha that has males in general other than the MC ofc
Combined from elsewhere.
There are two important things to keep in mind.
1. Type 95 was THE chink pandering, loved to death by them, girl in the original Girls Frontline. And there was a marriage system.
2. The whole premise of GF2 is that you went *poof* for 10 years
>Type 95 story gets data mined
>chinks freak out
>MICA apologizes, but the apology just told them to be "rational"
>some other things happen
>CCs start making fun of MICA, threaten to get the CCP involved (I think there was something about prostitution that was data mined)
>MICA starts deleting comments, which just makes it worse
>MICA's CEO eventually makes a video apologizing for everything (this includes all the technical shit wrong with the game, like it wiping the C: drive if you delete it)
>Chinks are still angry because instead of blaming the writers the CEO takes the blame instead
> change Raymond to a girl, with no other changes. Which just made chinks even more upset because it just gave off the impression mica didn't get why they had a issue with it
>after they changed Raymond into a woman they added books like The Handmaid's Tale (where women are being controlled against the will by a commander and forced to have sex with him) to the hang-out room. After the complaints they changed the book to one where a commander commits suicide. Players naturally thought MICA was targeting them, since it happened after they changed Raymond into a woman.
>Later Mica releases a showcase of 95...wearing a Lightning Pendant, guess where that came from
The last is a cultural thing. It means A LOT when you give a girl your mothers israeliteelry.
And there were other character and story things that weren't directly based on EL RAYMONDO
It was awe-inspiring. And the industry took note.
I kneel... Mr. Raymond changed the entire chinese gacha industry...
Is Ms. Raymonde frickable?
Those last 2 were in the game way before, but only just noticed then. Make of it what you will
It's amazing how this story completely changes some facts every time someone brings it up
Looks exactly the same as the last time I saw it
They didn't just change the sex of the homosexual, they also rewrote the event made the MC have a bigger role in it.
That's what I remember from the Ganker threads at least.
weird how vidya butts defends this, are there any other details that's not being mentioned here?
he dosent see the books as offensive and just filler assets from what i've seen in Ganker threads since the books also included the israelite torah and the lord of the rings
>weird how vidya butts defends this
Sunk cost is one hell of a drug, especially with someone dedicated to post the butt of that girl from GF1
It is always like that, they keep acting like a victim while accusing the self insert people to be the cancer of every community
if he plays the game then he should be in the know of things, it would be a lot easier just saying "lmao frick them ima do my own thing" than defending it
Maybe, just maybe, chinks aren't exactly trustworthy.
Remember them spamming about there being males in the files?
dude keeps spamming porn of that game non stop for years, he is clear not in the right mind and his sunk cost is too high
>wasting time and money to cuckpost
holy fricking pathetic life
>he is clear not in the right mind
I'm fricking tired and i will go to sleep soon, give me a break
>guy who hates cuckoldry says thing is not cuckoldry
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
He still fricking crazy to keep spamming the same shit non stop about this one girl for that game. His sunk cost is incredible high and this is something you cannot deny
>He still fricking crazy to keep spamming the same shit non stop about this one girl for that game
yeah, he hates cuckoldry THAT much and he chose to defend the game instead of going the other way.
>sunk cost
against the troony janny, a company flopping doesn't affect autists here unless they were salesgays
>and he chose to defend the game instead of going the other way.
Maybe because he is a schizo and is committed to keep spamming the same girl from that game and he cannot cope with the fact that the sequel tried to cuck him with omnipandering bullshit. That's why i keep saying his Sunk cost is too high, he is obsessed with that girl from that game. All this discussion is useless btw the game is fricking dead anway
He's sunk cost because he uses some image to shitpost?
I think you should actually go to sleep.
>keep spamming the same girl pussy for years
>totally not obsessed with that game
>totally not a schizo either
Yeah sure dude, whatever.
>i should go ask on the general since they play the game
Good idea i guess, at least removes the off topic shit from here. Not like i give a shit about that dead game anyway.
>Not like i give a shit about that dead game anyway.
you look like you care about trying to prove how the event was totaly NTR when someone who should hate it doesn't
I was mostly talking about his Schizo behavior and his obsession with that game, but for me they totally tried to cuck the players with omnipandering bullshit and it backfire, but i don't care enough to discuss with you about it. Not like i would play the game even if they dind't tried to pull this move anyway and you can believe whatever you want, i don't really give shit.
Why are you trying to pretend you aren't invested in this? Nobody loses sleep over a topic they don't care about.
>Why are you trying to pretend you aren't invested in this?
Why are being disingenuous when my whole point was the sunk cost of that schizo and not the game itself? Why are you trying to defend him and the game so fricking hard?
>Nobody loses sleep over a topic they don't care about.
I'm not losing sleep over anything, i might be tired but i only go to sleep after 1 hour from now. I still have some time to lose writing shit that doesn't matter.
>muh narrative
Like a give a frick about you or that game dead game moron and still a fact that the game is fricking dead.
>Why are being
I think you should go to bed, bro.
1 hour from now i will go to sleep
Bro you can't even type straight.
I find it interesting on how a very anticuck schizo is defending apparent cuckoldry. I don't think the shitpost sunk cost you're looking for relates to company life and im convinced that the chink players were in the right now bro. feel free spending another 40 minutes trying to convince me
>feel free spending another 40 minutes trying to convince me
And who said that i was trying to convince anyone? when i literally said you can believe whatever you want and i don't give a shit. FOR ME he still a schizo with a huge sunk cost and he is obsessed with that game, if you believe otherwise good for you, but that's your opinion not mine.
That never stopped anyone in Ganker
you complaining about being tired but staying up posting about how some random guy's opinion is irrelevant is telling
I literally said i still have 1 hour to spend writing useless shit before go to bed.
lmao homosexual, you care a lot about a schizo not aligning himself with your narrative. After this it sounds like the happenings were because of astroturfing and anyone still calling it actual NTR is pulling shit out of their ass
What NTR event are you talking about? Did some game have an NTR event?
If you consider genshin and honkai NTR, yes.
>All this discussion is useless btw the game is fricking dead anyway
yeah, i should go ask on the general since they play the game, its not like im getting any new info here. i'd rather trust his opinion on shit like that anyways
this all sounds like schizo nonsense until
>after they changed Raymond into a woman they added books like The Handmaid's Tale (where women are being controlled against the will by a commander and forced to have sex with him) to the hang-out room. After the complaints they changed the book to one where a commander commits suicide.
and suddenly it actually seems possible the writers were doing shit out of spite and they were engaged with fans on a real conflict
there was also something about that girl giving (You) a toothbrush or something like that for valentines, which only pissed people off more
>You see, this is what you get when your market is mostly composed of deranged asian otaku, you just don't get room to be creative
Gayshit and troony rail pander to both genders, mihomosexual even scrapped their old slogan entirely, and both are creatively bankrupt so whatever argument you tought you had, you don't
>they added books like The Handmaid's Tale (where women are being controlled against the will by a commander and forced to have sex with him)
>After the complaints they changed the book to one where a commander commits suicide
They're not even being subtle anymore lmao
On another note, I simply hope Promilia will have a much more polished dating mechanic. Kind of like Blue Archive's momotalks but with romance actually fricking happening. Even just a CG of your chosen waifu holding hands or cuddling with (You) would be great tbh
Here's hoping, but i'm not getting my hopes up that much either for hard romance. We will see what happens, chinks are still debating over the female mc thing, but if you want some copium the character profile menu has "gift" and "visit" options which kinda gives me rune factory vibes considering there's farming and shit.
>the character profile menu has "gift" and "visit" options
Eh, close enough, I guess. If they sprinkle even just a slight bit of hard romance at high affection levels, it would be magnificent.
Here's more copium: these two options seem redundant at first glance, because why would you want to visit a character if you can feed them gifts from the menu unless the gift option is actually a registry of giftable items and their effectiveness. Also Manjuu has taken some notes from Blue Archive, ever since it got big a lot AL fans moved and the difference in attention is noticeable, the UI of AL also suffered from being influenced by BA and AL is in a weird state where it is impossibly bloated with characters so maybe they are polishing character development for AP.
It's good that they're still upgrading the game at least
who is that semen demon?
Mari Iochi
thx
>spoiler
With a female MC? The yuri would be off the charts. Fanbase, all forums related to it, etc. I don't expect them to actually remove the option at this point even if CN did manage to have a tantrum so the gifting and affection system is going to be closer to toothless hangouts and stuff.
Locking the male MC is the overwhelming majority in the Tieba votes I've seen so if they release the beta and it turns out the affection stuff is meaningless because of the female MC there's gonna be another chink meltdown.
The playable units showing affection for the MC would be fine whether it's male or female, what CAN'T happen is them showing romantic interest between each other or other NPCs. That would kill the game instantly. And if they have to for story reasons, they have to put lines were the character says that the MC is the most important and beloved person in their lives, or reject a hangout to go in a date with the MC.
I feel that's the only way to keep the female MC without a (rightful) meltdown. I usually buy whatever monthly pass a game has instantly if the game is fun enough, but with this one I'll be on the lookout and drop it instantly if I have a single whiff of cuckery.
>The playable units showing affection for the MC would be fine whether it's male or female
Yeah. Very, very light affection. Nothing so blatant as an "I love you" or any real romantical leaning in the gift or affection system. All i'm trying to say is that the original anon I replied to is setting himself up for disappointment if he thinks this is going to be the game that does that. It being female only gacha will have to be enough.
Gameplay is nothing like XCOM.
Are you living under a rock? They had the biggest drama after the devs decided to cuck their player base, now the game is dead, makes no money and has the title of being the cuck game in CN
>but looks like the sales on the beta was so mediocre and the chinese people complaining made them change to (you) pandering, something that end up saving the game from EOS.
This needs to happen more often. New devs have to realize that trying to replicate Mihoyo too much will just lead to failure if you aren't some huge corpo of the same caliber. Just copy SOME of the homework, focus on ONE (1) audience instead of multi-pandering bullshit, and bam, you have a gacha with a secured fanbase carrying you for some years.
I say just copy snowbreak instead. Make omnipandering beta as bait then pivot hard into the actual intended audience while shitting on the other side, easy way to get a loyal playerbase especially with how people on the internet currently are.
Mihoyo had timing on their side and it already attracted the full reach of the female audience and even with all that they struggle to properly monetize them.
Even committing 100% to the female audience with a new gacha wouldn't work because there aren't enough of them and they are the types that just follow whatever is popular and Genshin is popular so they won't bother moving on to any other game.
Men are the only option for a successful game and Mihoyo already has the guys with high tolerance for male characters.
That's why going females only is really the smartest choice for now.
We're at the point in this industry's life where diversification into different niches is the only way to build a new audience. Copying the one at the top won't make you a viable option to compete with them it will just make you forgettable and not worth caring about.
it's funny how you pretty much could have said that to all the mmos trying to be the next wow.
>already attracted the full reach of the female audience
Even then they're still estimated to be only 35-45% of the playerbase.
>they are the types that just follow whatever is popular
So, just like males?
No, very unlike males.
you're delusional if you think males don't play games because they're popular.
You are stupid if you can't see the point.
It kinda feels this is becoming a tendency. Not that I'm complaining, the more anime bawds the better.
I am stupid AND I don't see the point. Now what?
Look carefully back at anything. Who is there first? It's always guys. Only after it's popular past certain point women become interested.
Games? Yep, anime? Yeah. Comics, any of the franchises that become popular? Guys there every time. The most niche interests are usually just full of guys.
Pay attention to the interest cycles of women and you'll see how they overwhelmingly tend to follow trends in fashion, they are much more likely to follow fashion trends, social media shit,celebrities or influencers too, back in the day women magazines were a thing and one way to sum them up would be "this is what's popular, what you should like and be into".
Exceptions exist, niche interests specifically tailored to women exist. But generally when it comes to shit like games specifically if it's not popular women have very low chance of caring and the ratio of this trend is much higher among them than men. If you want something niche and without the advantage of pre existing popularity to break through a market and gain a strong early lead men are your best bet.
It's nyover
It won't be over until we start getting all the fan art of the female MC and the other characters and all the screeching that entails.

I actually got in the beta because I linked them my pixiv account with my passable porn and they probably need any sort of fan advertisement. The movement and shooting was kinda fun but everything else was very generic and underwhelming
>uninspired fancy ornamented outfits
>boring story
>exact same artifact and constellation/eidolon cancer
>expected bugs and performance issues all over the place
There's a few neat details here and there like summoning your own units in combat (no quick-swap bullshit) and shooting mobs with them but otherwise I's very undercooked. I'm biased because I come from the S4 League/GunZ era but the gameplay is gonna induce some nasty carpal tunnel in your wrist if you go hard at it, and that's very unappealing to casual/mobile players.
That's what I was getting from everything I saw about it. I was only interested because of Warframe nostalgia before they added the stupid potato children. Then I watched some gameplay of it and everyone was fricking British for some reason.
>WuWa can't overtake promilia AFTER ANNOUNCING RELEASE DATE
Thats a good thing, who in their right mind wnats a rip-off this obvious to succed?
You guys are forgetting that manjuu put 0 money on the marketing campaign of this lmao what the frick?
Good, hope it flops.
Gote expy when fricking Yellow Chicken?
Have you kissed a gote today?
I need an expy of my wife
They better release bits of info every week or two just to keep discussion going. They can alternate between interesting bits like characters and pals or less interesting stuff. Just to keep trending and never let people forget about the game.
Chink incels are really starting to get on my nerves. No normie is gonna want to touch these incels pandering games that look way too shameless and desperate. This game is gonna suffer the same fate as snow breaks, really niche, barely ever talked about.
There's certainly a sweetspot to aim. The hyper schizos don't want a good game, they just want the gaming equivalent of wish fulfillment garbage isekai harem and even if they pay a lot there's not many of them. They can't sustain a high budget game. But going the other way and trying to pander to everyone will just make the game mediocre as well.
Snowbreak is niche because the game looks like a college student project. The models and movement are stiff and not very detailed, and the world environment is drab and plain.
Azur Promilia looks incredibly beautiful by mobile game standards, lets you sprint or fly around without stamina limiting you, and features cute not-pokemon following you around that also participate in battles or have use in overworld for puzzles or farming.
And farming is probably the biggest normalgay magnet.
I think even with an all female cast the game will still be very popular. The only thing that would drive normalgays away is heavy sexualization of the girls (especially the potatoes) or if there's a gorillion ads/monetization models thrown into your face every day.
With the amount of production work that went into AP it's insane how some people believe they plan it to be a niche game. They probably took some real debt to make it come that far. We'll be lucky if they stick to their AL roots and keep the game somewhat pandering and focused on the male audience first.
Out of all the Genshin clones this one looks the most promising because the quality looks amazing but it also has a similar but distinct enough identity being a palworld clone with girls only focus.
They might stick to that idea all the way and never add guys or change the main target demographic but they surely still want to maximize its audience and reach to make back all that investment.
We know that it's males first, CEO of SEX declared females only in gacha.
>only in gacha
>PC is female
It's over...
PC is so (you) that we're getting actual character creation and customization, anon. You can't get more (you) than that. Wouldn't be surprised if we got the ability to choose from like 3-4 voices for male and female.
Yeah, one of the best moves in the business. Assure the audience of what they are getting right away and commit to it.
The issue with Snow Break is that they cut their feet out from under them by initially not leaning into the pandering and fan service. They had to course correct and the problem with course correcting is that you're trying to make up for lost time.
Go ahead and keep pandering to "everyone," while making less money than stuff like Nikke and FGO. That's the smart thing to do, I'm sure.
Project Mugen needs to deliver on what the trailers were showing. Not veer off and suddenly get scared because of radical feminists will get triggered by harems and shit.
>FGO
An omni pandering zombie game kept going by sunken cost fallacy whales.
>Nikke
Christ, mihomosexual laughing all the way to the bank
This would be a perfect game, but the character designs feel so nothing. Also no e-girls.
The girl in AP honestly looks like a bootleg version of this one from Mugen tbh. I don't really trust people that say the designs are bad anymore since Mihomos online praise HSR which looks AI generated, but turn around and hate on every other game.
Yeah but Mugen has males in the gacha so I don't care
>Himecut
>black hair
>seifuku
Are you 12 or something? That's the most generic design in the world, it dates back to at least the 90's. You have to be at least 18 to post here you know?
>M*le in gacha
Yeah, I'm not spending my check just to be greeted by bara homosexual on my rolls.
I quit genshin back in like 2.4, but I remember there was a whole year of nothing but male banners, the only ones that made money were reruns of female rateups. Since then, it has been 80% females for new units.
My true pain is gayknight. I blame all the omnipandering because of this homosexual game. Usually they have a lineup of 6* female operator with the caveat of 5* and 4* male operator, and I would always get like a maximum amount of dupes for every male operator instead of getting what I want. Like Mr. Nothing, or worse you get spook like bara mountain homosexual or one of the other furry shit.
Same with me. Reason why i'm not even looking to try games like WuWa Looks like the first 2 gachas characters is also males lmao or even Project mugen. For me the only exception to play a gacha games with males now if it is like a Shonen IP gacha, assuming the game is actually good and not another cash grab.
>Project mugen
I hope it was just bait and switch
I hope so too, but since they show him in the first trailer i don't think so.
>omnipandering = only yuri, fujo and shipping girls with random characters
Every single time.
WuWa is in a such weird state of trying to copy genshin so hard that i cannot see this game succeeding at all. Even in Genshin male banners always end up flopping compared to female ones and that with them having a huge player base and like 40% of this player base being females
Mihomosexual always does this shit, they first trow a bone to the self insert pandering just to cuck them after the Female banner is over. It happened with Yomiya with Childe, Nahida and even 4* like Noelle with Mica. Reason why people in China calls genshin the "turtle game" (Turtle = cuck)
>turtle = cuck
Wuwakeks...
WuWa is fricking doomed KEKKKKK
Shit like that is such a fricking dirty move. Make it obvious who is it and who isn't for (you) since the beginning, but they obviously not going to do that especially when the fricking banner is up. No wonder why Gayshit is considered a cuck game and another reason why "omnipandering" is fricking fake
>"omnipandering" is fricking fake
Like
said, omnipandering is just "yuri, fujo and shipping girls with random characters" it always was, that's why such strong messages and language for removing the female MC even though no one has a problem with the female MC for being a female MC, it's what it will attract that we want to gatekeep. Because those people not only don't spend on the game but will also jump ship back to genshit and star rail after the first month.
>Looks like the first 2 gachas characters is also males lmao
They confirmed the first one is a male. The second one in the beta was a female but she was so shit that the MC and 4*'s were better units than her so they said they will rework her and scrapped her for now. Then there was some story rewrites drama because one girl (character) was a schizo and hated (You) and one gay character took credit for your work and people hated it so they decided on rewrites and announced that due to that the second banner will be a male as well due to story reasons.
Cry about it troony
Good lmao
>Good he seethes as he gets content updates once a year thanks to the devs going broke
For Snowbreak having to course correct and how small their studio is, I think they are doing perfectly fine.
Who is the publisher?
There are two options?
Seasun self-published iirc
Nikke making over 300 million while being extremely and unashamedly coomergame is pretty damn amazing tbh
Just goes to show the market is there, someone just needs to tap it.
Bro you don't understand, having 1 month where you make 10 millions in a bad patch means the game is fricking dying you know. All nikke money is made without CN who is the biggest market for gacha shit btw
The beauty of telling CN to frick off.
I really hope AP goes the AL route at least of making good designs globally and giving CN the censored scraps and not the hoyo route of global censorship.
No can do, boy. Spats for everyone.
spats? i haven't seen spats
>The beauty of telling CN to frick off.
Pretty sure Nikke devs still want their money, i saw something on tieba of them trying to get nikke reviewed again for release in CN.
Of course they do, sucks to be CN.
You mean sucks to be Nikke? They're literally asking to be censored
>start designing characters with CN regulations in mind
It's unironically over for Nikke if it goes through.
Nahh pretty sure they would just make CN have a different censored version of the game CN players would just mod the uncensored version anyway. Games like Yugioh and Dota2 also have censored version for CN and it doesn't affect everyone
Modding the censorship out is not hard anon
Imagine if somebody made a HSR-like game, but minus all the homosexual ass LGBT crap, and had shameless waifu pandering. I'd definitely open up my wallet again for that. It wouldn't even cost as much money as like an open world game.
Maybe it would flop. A non open world and turn based casual game like HSR is actually more suitable to women. The only reason that game is popular is thanks to Genshin.
A literally who developer putting out a similar game and without appealing to women might just flop.
Yes we get is, sis. Games can't survive without you.
Good games can but HSR is so bad only women think it's good.
Those numbers are not counting CN revenue. NIKKE drops several places if you add CN revenue to the respective games
>NIKKE drops several places if you add the revenue of the region it isn't released in
You don't say...
>>>>>i-it doesn't count alright. NIKKE is way better than omnipandering game okay
>black anon doesn't understand per capita
a tale as old as time
>Game literally not available in region does not add revenue from region to its numbers
My brother in christ you sound like you don't normalize your fricking datasets. Nikke would make a killing in CHYNA if it was actually available there.
How fricking insecure do you have to be? His point is Nikke is still making a bunch of money just selling coom. And apparently that's without China. If a Chink company did it, they'd access to that market too which is huge.
Yes, I would like the game as advertised, thank you.
If HSR didn't have Mihomosexual brand behind it, it would have EoSed by now. There is literally nothing appealing from that game, not the gameplay, not the characters, not the story, not even waifu/ship pandering. Just an overall mess completely carried by branding.
>*is a cutie in your path*
She belongs on my wiener.
Cute canon protagonist
giwtwm
Cute onahole for (me), her brother.
She looks like she fricks her brother.
I'm her brother btw.

Reminder for hoyohaters and hoyoslurpers, this is not your safe space.
I repeat, this not your safe space.
Go circlejerk somewhere else.
Beta when?
Hopefully never.
>Nikke release in China
>Da Wei report Nikke to the CCP and the game get banned just like Uma Musume
Holy based
>horse puss was banned
I didn't even know it released there.
Game got reported for promoting gambling by a CCP member and got banned.
How does that make sense? Literally every gacha promotes gambling.
Shut up.
Gacha is gambling but betting on horses is a different beast. Uma Musume wasn't banned for being a gacha; it's banned for promoting betting on horse racing.
>it's banned for promoting betting on horse racing.
it promotes horse pussy way more than betting on horses
I could see the argument being made. Unlike your average gambling promoting gacha, Uma Masume is literally anthropomorphized real horse race gambling. If I had an axe to grind I would say it's a stones throne away from having the youths seek out horse betting and that we have to act. NOW!
Da Wei is a massive homosexual, so i would not be surprised
As a Ex-genshit player the first time time i cope saying Yae/Ayato shipbait was a nothing burger but the most recent Noelle/Mika shipbait was the straw that breaks the camel's back, i hope Genshit burns and Azur Promilia success .
>Also
What are the chances they add at least ONE Kemono girl? reminder Kemono ≠ Furhomosexualry
>What are the chances they add at least ONE Kemono girl? reminder Kemono ≠ Furhomosexualry

You need to stay far, far away.
Two characters interact once and relate to their position within their company and it's shipbait lmao
Guess I'm ship baiting every time I talk with any of my coworkers too
Shipping has rotted the brain of too many people, both the fans and antis, this shit somehow wasn't a problem 20 years ago or even 10 years go. Two characters could interact in a game without people becoming obsessed over it.
>Shipping has rotted the brain of too many people
I don't really care if people ship characters as long as they understand whatever they are saying is just pure headcanon. Anytime I looked at anything mihoyo related these people cannot separate headcanon and canon.
There are still people insisting Kafka is the MCs mom when their relationship is way too romanticized. You even had leakers trying to push this as the truth before her quest came out just because they hated that Kafka was (you)bait.
>these people cannot separate headcanon and canon.
They are so crazy about that shit that they go their way to harass artists that goes against their headcanon like pic related, where Arlecchino in their head was a lesbian and she could not be shipped with a male, much less the Mc of the game. Some other example was the Clorinde being drawn with a male (This time it wasn't even the MC) and the artist also got hate because in the yurishitters head, clorinde is supposed to be also a Lesbian
Writing was legit just fricking shit
some shippers/anti-shippers are just insane period
on the same level as the worst cartoon fanbases out there
the common factor is always a high ratio of women in the fanbase
>They are so crazy about that shit that they go their way to harass artists that goes against their headcanon like pic related, where Arlecchino in their head was a lesbian and she could not be shipped with a male
and you know what is funny? i never see Aethergays harrasing and artist for all the Zhongli,Cheld,Ayato or Scaramouche NTR art that speaks a lot about the community...
I mean, this is the /gig/ shitposter who constantly malds at "aetherpag" and "caeluspag"
>hoyogay complaining about media literacy
that fanbase in general has the lowest media literacy I have seen out of any fanbase.
Stop playing gachas you mentally ill homosexuals. There are better f2p games out there if you're too goddamn poor for real games, like war thunder.
>Stop playing gachas
homie we in /vmg/
>Mobile games = gachas in the mind of a gacha troon
Like I said, you're mentally ill. I literally provided you with an example of a non gacha mobile game. What a moron
>playing war thunder on mobile
>Playing the dogshit PC version
Couldn't be me.
Play Pong Mobile you fricking Black person!!!
>Playing western slop mobile games
That shit's for women. It's so hard for women that it's the only reason they make up 50% of the gaming demographic.
>Slavshit is western
They wish
Oh, I'm talking about the bulk of non-gacha mobilegames, not warthunder.
F2p isn't even a factor, I just want anime girls frick off
Then go play the countless Japanese anime games out there, why are you playing chink shit for anime girls? There are no anime girls in chink shit.
>countless Japanese anime games
There aren't many Japanese anime games pandering to males these days. Plus Japanese game studios are literally not innovating anymore. They keep releasing remakes.
Imagine being this moronic
not an argument
Bro, you're not going to convince anyone here to die for US interests. We like China, they give us shit we want while our neighbors hate us, disparage us, and then blame us when we get annoyed with them about it.
Frick 'em. Hail Chairman Xi.
Most Japanese anime games are either very low budget games that look like they could have come out 10 years ago or they're trying to copy Westoid slop
It's very hard to find anything that's on the level of AP on the Japanese anime game market which is the whole reason why many people are looking forward to this game.
>play the countless Japanese anime games out there
moron
>countless Japanese anime games
name 10?
Am I the only one who thinks AP genuinely looks better than most AAA games these days? The graphics are stunning despite being for mobile games and I really prefer this kind of colorful sparkly look to the world than how a lot of AAA games try to make gritty realistic graphics. The best part is that the game is anime themed. I've got a point in my life where I cannot enjoy video games anymore unless there are anime girls. I feel dumb because I built a new PC last year with a nice card and 7800X3D cpu and all but all the games I thought I wanted to play just didn't do it for me aesthetically.
This game is literally for (Me).
The games environment could be more colorful, they look kinda grim if you put it next to genshin.
This game looks far better than Genshin though. Compare the water in this game versus the water in Genshin.
imo the environment doesn't look as good. Like I said, it's kinda dark for some reason. The colors are just weird and off-putting.
Gameplay trailer looked great to me but I'm not sure if it's because of difference in display. Game looks perfectly beautiful on OLED with calibrated HDR
I think oversaturation and bloom rotted your brain bro. Genshin needs that level of color saturation because of the low poly count of the models, just like, say, 3DS monster hunter titles.
Otherwise you wouldn't be able to see collectable items from far away (remember that genshin was developed as a mobile game first and foremost, it shows in the low amount of enemies on screen, and the painted on clothes of NPCs).
You can always use reshade or the nvidia one to change that anyways.
I just like how colorful genshin is, sue me. First thing I thought of when is saw this game was wow this looks depressing for some reason
what?
is your monitor broken?
AP is very colorful
seek help bro
I just can't do it. I play games like BG3, Cyberpunk, DD2, etc. for like 3 hours at most before I get really bored and uninstall. Then I boot up something like Unicorn Overlord or Granblue Relink and put in 60 hours into those games within a week on top of wageslaving a 9-5. I quite literally NEED anime girls in my game.
your mods, sire.
I agree, most AAA games nowadays just feel uninspired.
been there, started playing Genshin because of it.
Hopefully AP will deliver

Welcome to /apg/

Personally I'm a bit alienated by all the master love type of harem games. I'm not advocating for homoshit or anything but my personal power fantasy for these types of games would to be like the main character of Reverend Insanity. I want to be a nihilistic and calculated motherfricker who does everything he can for power and self gain. Women only either fear me, are disgusted by me, or worship me like a dark god. My "harem" are just a bunch of worshipers or former enemies broken in by me to become slaves.
What gacha game is for (Me)?
Tenkafuma
If I do end up playing this game, I'll use this thread as well as the current state of /alg/ as indicatives that I should never, ever interact with any of you in this site or any other place whatsoever. That's all. Have this sex.
You think you're better than me, mother fricker? I'd snap you like a fricking twig.
Raymond died to save us all
So what is this omnipandering I hear about? Pandering to EVERYONE right? is Genshin omnipandering? How does it pander to straight males like me? Everything is censored, female main DPS are shit, males are T0C0 broken most of the time and even usurp positions from Archons like Neuvillette did with Furina. Last time Genshin Pandered to me was with Raiden Shogun which was 2 years ago. There is no cleavage in that game anymore. Also pretty much no one is for (You). I think the censored monoboob Navia was the only exception but she was released after a whole year without a single female character and the last one for (You) was Shenhe 2 years ago.
Pretty sure Navia is for (you), or at least everything I've seen paints it that way.
>Pretty sure Navia is for (you)
She is but she has a very strong yuriship with Clorinde which is the only thing mihoyo panders to now. Navia's story quest made yurishippers mad so they backtracked a bit.
>She is but she has a very strong yuriship with Clorinde
>is for (you)
this is the problem with hoyoshit, instead of dedicating characters to being for (you) or not, they try to have their cake and eat it too.
Why would anyone want to date the Traveler, anyways? They're gonna frick off once they find their sibling and have incestuous sex in the next world
>this is the problem with hoyoshit, instead of dedicating characters to being for (you) or not, they try to have their cake and eat it too.
The worst thing is that if the ship is popular on social media they stop with (You) pandering and fully commit to the yuriship.
We're just talking about pandering.
I'm glad I dropped this shit
Agreed, glad I dropped it at the start of Sumeru.
They even got Hu Tao to fully commit to her ship with Zhongli.
You now remember they nuked any tibits of affection with Guizhong, just to do this.
Wouldn't surprise me if they brought back Guizhong just to ship her off with Ping like they did in that one event.
They pretty much made them joined at the hip and she even complains when he doesn't talk to her enough even though he pretty much only talks to her now.
>cucked if you like hu tao
>they repeated the same shit with Furina and cucked you there too after their "pandering" when her banner was up
I'm so fricking glad i quit this shit game
Thank god i dropped this shit years ago and i got fluffy yandere fox wife for me and any idiot saying that BA players would not play AP are fricking braindead, i have my account at max level and it took me like 20 minutes to clear daily missions and this is counting if there is a raid.
I could hope that genshin dies but no, i hope it stays alive so morons like you stay there forever
>i have my account at max level and it took me like 20 minutes to clear daily missions and this is counting if there is a raid.
Uhh bros, you told me people who play BA wouldn't have time for AP...
Speaking as a big BA player I will absolutely play AP as my main game if it's good and has good waifus and (You) pandering. If it doesn't then there is no point playing it when I could play Genshin or Star Rail if I wanted.
>If it doesn't then there is no point playing
Pretty much this, all it has at that point is the pokemon elements and then why not just play palworld or a romhack.
>wakamo got another one
Welp looks like I'm downloading Blue Archive
AL shit on BA
AL is so shit they are making a better game with the money you gave them lol
How far behind is AL behind CN? Also
>AL shit on BA
Nah both are good. Saw that dorm thingy they're gonna implement so I got hyped.
>How far behind is AL behind CN? Also
It's sync'd. The only thing EN is "behind" on are Archives(limted -> permanent for events) and even then it is just 1 behind.
Thanks
>The only thing EN is "behind" on are Archives(limted -> permanent for events) and even then it is just 1 behind.
this is no longer the case since January, it caught up when they made the Shinano and NJ event permanent
that's a known shitposter falseflagging as an "AL player"
>So what is this omnipandering I hear about? Pandering to EVERYONE right? is Genshin omnipandering? How does it pander to straight males like me?
is omnipandering for moronic people anon just look granblue fantasy, for example the time they hard shipped Yoimiya with Childe to pander shiptroons and then they made and event where Yoimiya was pandering waifugays, they never are going to go full pandering to (you) or are going to make a official couple to pander shiptroons, they are just blueballing everyone but the people that is not a fricking moronic homosexual or a "woman" have enough of that shit and mark my words if AP becomes bigger than Genshin mihomosexual would go full pandering to (you) but to by honest we need a miracle for that to happen
>Also
if you are asking for a "good" omnipandering games i think i could say that only games like FE or Unicorn Overlord can make omnipandering "right"
Captcha:RTARD
KEK
The only games that actually omnipander are FGO or FE. Since there are actual canon relationships and what not/marry up who you want. Like you said Hoyo's "omnipandering" is just blueballing everyone involved. Especially when they just do shit like
as soon as the banner is up and everyone finishes the character quest which went hard on the (you) pandering.
>Yoimiya with Childe
This one was actually ridiculous. Yoimiya was so excited to suck Childe off while the only lines Traveller got were "W-why are you here", "W-w-what's going on?" "P-please l-l-listen to me! He's a bad guy!" while she was like "Huh? You;re here Traveller? Anyway, Childe I love your style!!" And it wasn't even an event. They just randomly dropped Yoimiya and Childe there.
>cucking yumes and waifugays in one fell swoop
lmao
Didn't the JP voice actor for Yoimiya also shipped them on twitter and had to remove the tweet after? Her sucking a terrorist wiener after being warned about him was just pathetic, i say this not because is the player getting cucked, but because the writing is just fricking Shit. Who in the right mind would be okay with someone who is a Fatui and tried to commit genocide in another nation just because he was being nice with some random kids? Fricking moronic writing
And they had to put a story quest for her later to try to salvage her character KEK
That is a classic, game died and will never release.
pretty much this
i just think its wild she didn't believe you over someone she doesn't know
Because the whole Yoimiya x Cheld was written to be actual NTR and it was if you were into Yoimiya.
She knew WHO he was and WHAT did. He even admitted he was in Inazuma for "work" and she still completely ignored the MC. It was very weird.
Devs knew what they where doing with that shit and even with them backtracking a little bit with Yoimiya second story quest and sucking Childe dick in the main story quest for fontaine, them cucking the players and the trash writing was just fricking pathetic.
This whole Yoimiya thing made Cheld yumes more angry though. It didn't help that every interaction Traveller had in that dialogue was like pic related and both Cheld and Yoi ignored the Traveller.
Reading these horror stories ITT really makes me understand the hype behind Promilia now
>hype

>hope
It is a desperate hope. So much could go wrong but I NEED it to go right. Please God just don't let them frick this one up.
>its a desperate hope
Holy frick, this is true, the market has been so full of omni pandering and controversies that everyone is looking at Promilia like a child's dream game come true, and png collectors aren't cutting it anymore.
>so much could go wrong but I NEED it to go right
>Fem MC
Son, you might as well give up on that now.
That's a win though, cucks that pic the male mc in games an extreme minority by all statistic metrics and mostly poorgay f2p so the ml cuck chimpout will be funny when nothing changes.
I'm going to go full Tolkien in your ass.
What you don't have is amdir, or "an expectation of good, which though uncertain has some foundation in what is known"
What you have is estel, or "... 'trust'. It is not defeated by the ways of the world, for it does not come from experience, but from our nature and first being."
For all the issues MUST be for the Children of the One's joy.
For the last fricking time: no i'm not giving you a donation. I don't even go to church.
https://thainsbook.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/athrabeth.pdf
Yep, and also is reflected by the insecurity displayed by the antis
nothing will ever come close to this
Genshin has a lot of (You) pandering though...
Only male twinks of course...
Even then AL shit on BA
kinda sad blue archive is doing so bad lately
all part of the plan
I'm so fricking glad i quit this shit cash grab
There's no reason to spend money, the only reason you ever spent was because you wanted to support the game. I'm day one f2p and was able to plat every raid, have 80% of the characters could have more but I just don't bother anymore unless it's someone that really stands out to me. The game is unironically too generous (to old players), catching up is still a b***h.
They need to add something for the whales to spend on, costumes or something. Don't know why they don't try to monetize the game more.
Did they get rid of the fem MC or will it still be /u/?
For the Type 95 stuff I remember seeing that she mentions that "someone special" is waiting on her and that person can only really be (you) based on the context. Not sure exactly how true it is or what iteration of the script it was from.
I feel like this game will attract the worst playerbase in existence. It's gonna be every insufferable shitposter from /vg/ thrown together into a single thread, and the slightest mention of two girls being friends will turn it into a hurricane of moronation.
Not to mention it's gonna inherit /alg/s moronation too.
This game won't be for you yuriBlack person. You can stop posting in this thread as well.
As long as there's a female MC, it's for them too.
>/alg/s moronation too.
???
You think the troony that spams the general with shitted every few hours isn't gonna appear there too?
Shitler already posts here too, unless you are talking about the other one.
I'm talking about the /trash/ troony to be specific.
Considering where he came from before dropping on us, it wouldn't surprise me if he spams day 1.
That's not /alg/ though, thats a moronic shitcord troony. He does the same shit in the other ones. See
.
I'm not saying he's what you consider to be /alg/, I'm saying he won't miss the opportunity to have two threads to shitpost.
Nah the prospective playerbase is fine, the community will be great. The threads might be fricked tho, we'll just have to wait and see. Everywhere else I've checked out people are just happy a game like this is coming out. Genshin + Palworld, only girls, not censored, really good looking. It's good stuff. We could be discussing that.
The only negativity I've seen towards it comes from these threads and it all stems from the schizos triggered there's a female protagonist and obsessed with the culture war. They'll bring up other games and whatever some other schizos in china care about and bait everyone.
I don't even know if they are unironic or actually just trying to gaslight people for fun, their posts are very repetitive and moronic so it's either low effort trolling or genuinely autistic people.
The Genshin general became practically unusable after it attracted a similar crowd, perhaps even the same people. This sort of problem gets worse progressively as people grow tired of being dragged into pointless discussions by these people and the low IQ noise they generate so they just stop coming to the thread and eventually the only people who remain active are those who actually want to engage in the shit flinging and past some point that's all that will remain. After that no one cares about the game anymore, no one actually wants to discuss it or make any content related to it. It's just morons flinging shit at each other.
Real shame since there aren't many good places to discuss these games. Moderated places are run by people with pronouns on bio and unmoderated places end up the septic tank of schizos running loose.
It is what it is I guess.
It's funny that you're still writing essay posts because you're so triggered no one wants femcels and trannies in the community.
Come up with new material.
no u
>perhaps even the same people.
absolutely this, it's just the same shit over and over again
ten words or less troony
You have to understand, he is very angry.
>slightest mention of two girls being friends will turn it into a hurricane of moronation.
Sounds like an easy thing to avoid doing if you're not also a schizo.

Sure, not like a give a shit about this conversation anyway. Unfortunately there is no much to talk about AP yet, hopefully a beta soon
What will our preregistration goals be like? WuWa is expecting at least 50m players.
>WuWa launches with 3 limited pulls and 20 standard pulls If they hit the 30mil mark.
Lmao. Also it looks like a nice harem game. The harem is not yours but one of the male gacha character's. Be sure to pull for his harem as well.
Nah Wuwa got criticized by westerngays for rewriting all the females to dickride the MC due to chinkcel demand, it’s even a plot point where one shady character says they’re just using you by sucking your dick so much. Obviously they’re not because that’s your friends going forward.
>Wuwa got criticized by westerngays for rewriting all the females to dickride the MC
You mean femcels and trannies were seething? Because that's oddly specific thing to be mad about. Not that males are for you but that females are for you.
>ToF 2,0, but somehow even more gay and cucked.
This game will flop

This is the fate of omnipandering games
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/男女兼用恋愛ゲーム
Between 1998-2000, japs made a bunch of unisex dating sims (can choose mc gender, can romance any character regardless of gender). They think both genders will enjoy it.
The result?
Men ignore them and just keep playing gal games.
Due to the lack of otome games, only women buy unisex games. After more and more otome games are released, women also stopped buying unisex games.
An omnipandering game won't be killed by another omni or waifu game. It will be killed by yume games.
Love and Deepspace is the real Genshin killer.
tell that FGO, it seems they didn;t hear the news

Is PC client even planned?
They literally showed the game being played on PC in the gameplay demonstration video
technically might be just for demonstration.
(not saying this will be the case)
>life attack pdef mdef
So no crit, maybe it won't have artifact grinding cancer.
We don't know because the footage doesn't have an equipment menu.
Making PC games with mobile client is the meta, you play on PC, while mobile catches all the dumbass whales who don't play games.
Are there even whales who play open world games like Genshin on mobile? Even on the most recent flagship phones big open world games like this don't run perfectly, the controls suck, and the phones get really hot and uncomfortable to use. I'd assume anyone who can whale also has more than enough money to build a decent PC.
there probably are. Weirdos, I'd say.
Yes considering a lot of those revenue numbegayging images come from mobile sales
70% of gacha revenue comes from Asia, and they are mobile-centric over there, especially in China and Japan. It's not because they are poorgays, it's because they prefer phones and handheld due to space reasons. The majority of whales who have disposable income are salarymen who play mobile games while commuting on transport or trains to work
>Naruto Mobile
Who the frick is playing this???
China only, made by Tencent.
the english twitter account used to follow steam early on so probably
uuuhh
beg pardon what
inb4 the chinese demand every creature also be female out of fear of getting cucked by blobs
Found the homosexual
Did they mention a date?
Not him but yes, there is a date. I also got an invite. I can't say when but I can say that Manjuu wants to murder WuWa.
>that Manjuu wants to murder WuWa
WuWa wants to murder themselves with that double male banner out the gate. At least it gives people more than enough time to save if they decide to play it.
>double male banner
they pretty much tell me they don't want me out the gate with this
Second banner was supposed to be a female but she was so bad that they unironically scrapped her and switched her for another male.
doesn;t matter, if they want to get me from Genshin they have to be better than Genshin, and all that focus on males tells me it's not worth my time.
AP is my only hope to get away from Genshin.
there's also the rope, troony.
I hope that AP has some more hags and I'll be happy.
I'm not worried about that, they will deliver.
WuWa is a fujo/yume game. Pretty much everyone has accepted this. Genshin could never.
They should just have gone full homosexual and directly competed with Tears of Themis, that's another game under mihoyo's umbrella completely unopposed in a niche market
>double male banner out the gate
WuWa is dead on arrival
>fujo/yume game
I hate gayshit, but is fricking impossible for WuWa to even scratch gayshit fanbase and take players from them, even more so when WuWa sells itself as a "hardcore" gacha
Apparently PGR had a pretty long yaoi bait phase according to the players so I think WuWa is going into that direction as well. Seems like Kuro are big fans of yaoi.
They might take some of the HSR fanbase if that's the case.
I don't play PGR but i heard that they force male banners even tho they are a huge flop every time
To add more to that, people don't really care about gameplay in gacha, they care about the fricking characters the most. That's the whole monetization in gacha in the first place
didn't PGR had some CN controversy with the writing team or lead was it being full on fujo for a while before being removed to start omnipandering again later
this?
yes this is pretty much with all the details included. I forgot most of them like which female character they released after it
Also they kept the fujo team and only changed the direction huh? No wonder I don't see any girl appealing enough from the base roster on wuwa.
Didn't they fire alot of the old art team from cbt 1 to cbt 2?
was the date revealed to you in a dream?

If WuWa can pull fujos and yumes + gameplaygays off genshin, and AP pulls waifugays I wonder what Mihoyo will do.
Roll in their pile of money and laugh.
>If WuWa can pull fujos and yumes + gameplaygays off genshin
what makes you think it could?
AP will have a huge woman playerbase though i can see it, farmville + house decorations + pokemons and full of cute designs that women also tolerate more than men in most cases, yeah.
AP will be the first game that will soften a little the normals on waifu games. There are women that like AL as well, mostly japanese but AL is so full of cute coded designs that there's always some japanese woman having a favorite shipfu.
As long as they understand their place.
That's why i said a little.
There will definitely be both of the following:
>women that screech about muh fanservice and leave
>women that will like the game for all their associated features and will stay and pay no attention to the fanservice or even like it, like a foreign molding to the country they are living in
that's the first group i mentioned very filtered, but you can't deny to me that the second group won't exist either, i was also very anti coomer 10 years ago yet here i am.
That second group will be less than 20% just like most gacha games that are waifu focus meanwhile the female player base will be focusing in games full of husbandos. There is no fricking way AP will have a "huge" female player base as you say without males in gacha, that's a fact.
15% seems pretty huge to me all things considered, it will overtime generate normalization for waifu games, in fact you can already see the beginning of that with all the females that already play these mostly waifu games regardless, i'm not saying AP will BE a game that will attract a lot of women foreign to the formula but definitely will have a bigger impact than png collectors.
You call this "huge", i call it pathetic, even Genshin that is the biggest normie gacha out there full of males and focus heavy on women pandering can only get around 40% with the majority of the playerbase still being males. I see AP getting less attention amongst woman than something like Nikke
That pretty much how it goes for gacha that focus heavily on Waifus. Meanwhile games that is full of husbandos will be massive with girls just like that Love and Deepspace game
You realize that 15% of nikke or arknights is similar in raw numbers to 80% for yume games right?
and yet their game did more money than something like Nikke, BA and Arknights
i wonder what being a fujo game developer is like?
idk but they probably smell really bad
Fujos stink really good and I give them my dick every weekend.
>top three games are all games for women

It will primarily consist of girlfriends who got into their boyfriend's hobby to coop with him, found the farming sim and pokemon fun, and get more ideas about what their boyfriend likes so she can copy it in private.
>There will definitely be both of the following:
>women that screech about muh fanservice and leave
Wrong, the people that screech about fanservice were never going to play in the first place. That is why it is so poisonous to listen to them. They aren't even potential paying customers.
>AP will have a huge woman playerbase
Fricking doubt that, they are already getting filtered for not having males in gacha. Woman in gacha is no different from men, they want husbandos just as much we want waifus.
>looks like rune factory
>all-female but likely very little or light (you) pandering
>already showing off female mc
Yeah this fanbase is gonna full of females.
fricking cope, woman care about husbandos and they don't give a shit about femMC. The amount of females for this game will be less than 15% like most waifu games
>they want husbandos just as much we want waifus.
That is not true at all, I question if you have any female otaku friends. Do consider that about half of gacha illustrators are female, and most only exclusively draw women.
>most only exclusively draw women.
around half of them are himejoshis
>That is not true at all
>"illustrators" when is literally a job and they are paid to do it
>fanart autism argument when i literally showed data of female players and they are a minority in games that has no husbandos
>"just ask your friends bro" as if this is somehow a good source to anything
fricking moron
It's just a job for the illustrator and 99% of my female weeb friends care more about husbandos. One of them even care more about gory plot (Another, Muv luv alt etc). Too bad other weebs actually have female friends unlike you neetrannies so you can't gaslight them.
there's some appeal, but I doubt it will be a big hit, it will be seen as a game for waifu collectors, and women won't have much appel with that.
I think AP has enough features to capture some audience of women that like looking at girls doing cool things, you guys are getting too fixated on the rad fems.
I only see asian women liking this game, or very weeb western women, the kind who actually likes sexy female characters. However there are very few of those, I expect most female western CCs to skip the game which is a good thing.
>fujo and yumes
>being gameplay gays
Those don't mix together, gays and woman cannot play games at a hardcore level. Reason why Gayshit is a success amongst those fanbase is because they focus in shitty mini game that a 3 year old could solve or even worse, a woman could solve.
>If WuWa can pull fujos and yumes
It won't, girls don't like difficult gameplay. Genshit works because you can play it with no brain. Wuwa is moronic and trying to capture the "hardcore" playerbase while also catering the characters to the homosexuals. The two don't mix, it will be the fastest recorded big budget EOS in the history of gacha.
Wouldn't they make an absolute killing from selling Mon skin and accessories alone? If the mon is not gacha, they can just sell the master ball for premium while leaving some chance for F2P to capture some special or event mon at some rates.
The girls? My wives.
The pammies? My onaholes.
The kibo? My cumrags.
For me it's the thicc Mothra
Forgot pic
You gays enjoy your culture war while we fricked the sexy mon
Since there are no males in the game shippers will be forced to ship the girls with their pokemons. I foresee the boar or dog being very popular among female players.
This is a yuri game. It will be good to pair with Star Rail, the other yuri game.

It seems that you guys are unaware about Kuro. WuWa will definitely mainly attract fujos. Some gameplaygays might play the game for a bit at launch but most will drop when they realize the waifus are all dogshit.
There was a HUGE drama for PGR back when it first released in China and it was because - yes you guessed it - women working in the company. Once the game took off, the original storyboarders and character designers were all kicked off of the team and replaced with fujo interns. These interns immediately started shifting the focus away from the established main characters and turned the story into dickriding their favorite OC donutsteel male character who completely shitted all over the main cast. They also made that year's summer event completely focused on males, with primarily just male swimsuit skins. Anything the female characters got were extremely covered up safe designs that only women would care about. During this period many male players began dropping the game because in addition to this it was just nonstop male banners after male banners. This loss of players was so bad that Kurogame was losing money at a rapid pace and they had to conduct emergency actions to revert the game back on track and start appealing to male players again with the release of S Vera who was a very longtime anticipated unit that no one thought the game was going to get for awhile but things were just that desperate.
Now the team of fujos is trying to get their revenge with WuWa as you can see with how dogshit the original designs were for so many of the female characters. This was also slightly corrected since then because many male players complained after the early beta tests however it seems that they are still going with double male banners from the beginning and who knows how much control the fujos still have.
Kurogame ever since its blunder with PGR has been known as a fujo company and this is why WuWa is destined to fail with a male audience.
>started shifting the focus away from the established main characters and turned the story into dickriding their favorite OC donutsteel male character who completely shitted all over the main cast.
Is this referencing Chrome? I remember thinking it was kinda weird just how much they talked up the guy. He's secretly this OP super soldier, bred to be the best commandant there ever was, blah, blah, blah.
It's been so long since i've played that it could easily be me remembering and it being someone else though. I don't even remember S-Vera being THAT close to the summer event.
Who the frick name their game wuthering waves anyway? What's wuthering? God I can feel the smugness thinking themselves so intelligent for coming up to such a name.
same shit reason why nips put dumbass foreign titles because everyone will abbreviate them anyway.
Wuthering Heights?
The same people who thought going all in on the not!china aesthetic for the entire game along with the character designs was a good idea. Like man, they should've gotten a clue when even Hoyo, whose cake they clearly want a slice off, makes not!china just places most players want to get out of 5 minutes into the first convoluted lore-wank exposition dump, instead of the entire thing.
Didn't they already confirm different regions in that game? You honestly think they'll pass on the idea of WuwaJapan?
Not him, but it doesn't really matter if they make the entire starting area the NotChina area with cloudy mountains. I don't think i've seen one of these do that yet. It's always the second big area you get to and always the least liked. I didn't think much of it at all until just now, but after feeling how shitty it is for the entire current playable area to be that I think it might be intentional. You draw in everyone else with the starter area and then make the CN playerbase feel pandered to with the Wuxia shit in the second, NotChina area.
I'm willing to give it a shot because it's not Mihoyo. It seems like you're just sort of basing this if Hoyo's track record. I don't really like their games, in general. That's why I'm looking forward to other games coming out. Either way, if you play like HSR, you're gonna have to sit through a bunch more china dicksucking since there's a bunch of Chinese ships to visit.
Guess it's back to waiting for Project Mugen.
Cute onahole!
Kinda reminds me of a kemono friend
>All the comments of people dropping it because it has no gacha males.
It really is a weird kind of joy to experience.
I love her

I want Elin-like characters
They sure are, but I don't think people are going to use premium currency or money on them.
>Imagine not being able to get all the characters in AP unless you paypig
skipping banners is way harder when there is no easy skips (males) in between.
>skipping banners is way harder when there is no easy skips (males) in between
I will solve that problem by playing 4 accounts at once. I'll just roll for each banner on a rotation ensuring that I will always have at least one pity one one of the accounts at any given time.
>yuri games sell on japa-ACK!
It's really sad to see what has happened to this franchise. I was introduced to SIF back in 2014 through the Love live anime which had a great ending. It was my very first gacha game. I dipped out after they lost the sovl and started spamming cash grab groups after Aquors, shitty outdated game with no improvements and greedy corpo crap
The gameplay was outdated
I'm really excited for AP. Imagine all the e-girls.
Pammies are not e-girls
Wasn't talking about the potatoes
What e-girls? At most we have hebes from the trailer.
My dad works for Manjuu. The pammies have been discussed at length and they are very close to being removed from the project altogether. Once this is done any problematic "petite" characters are going to be scaled up.
I think your dad actually works for Homoverse
Jokes on you. He works in a consulting firm for both: Shitposts Incorporated.
Frick is that the gacha equivalent of SBI?
>any problematic "petite" characters are going to be scaled up.
...so they'll make it to be more childlike proportion? that's even more problematic mang, a great filter right there.
No. The regular e-girls, such as the pink angel like character, will be scaled up into the adult female model. This move will save the game on the global stage.
off-proportion titty monster in 3d? that's also problematic mang, we can't have that.
The west specifically will have content modified to adhere to cultural standard such as the toning down of particularly egregious "jiggle physics." The e-girl model is simply something too omnipresent and will require pre-release work that affects all regions. Regardless of these challenges, Christoph Hartmann has assured us that they've got things under control.
>Chinese discussion about this game is entirely taken over by harem lovers vs yurigays
The absolute state of this game. Can't wait for the beta test for the war to get even worse.
Are you digging Tieba as well? i want to know what do they mean with the term "Cyber Israelis"
I think that's just a term for women who invade male spaces and try to make it pander to them instead.
This happens to all these gachas with barely any real (you) pandering. FGO never was infested with yurigays despite Mihoyo fans always bringing up that it panders to both women and men. Yes, it does so by giving men their waifus, and then giving yumes, their husbandos.
How you get Mihoyo thread quality is when you make girls, make them gay, make everything vague with extremely limited pandering. The result? Harem vs shippers every thread for the rest of forever.
Made for FemMC.
>That frog girl
Kek wasn't she a scrapped EU submarine concept?
These things are so damn cute, I can see them carrying the game. I never cared for lala's or other small races in other games.
For some reason they always gave me a creepy vibe. But these things are perfect, they don't feel like they have fricked up proportions. They are exploding in character and make me feel genuine joy in my heart for the first time in years.
I gave up on the idea of hype for a game ages ago but somehow they have sparked it again. I have never been so excited for something.
>It seems like I have gone back to the autumn when the Japanese server was first launched. At that time, Huangji almost played himself to death, but Taijun was so powerful that he pushed Blue Blue to the top of the Japanese server without having anything to gain. In a flash, Bilandu has persisted for 7 years, the national server has come back to life, the yellow chicken is thriving, and former acquaintances are still inexplicably moved.
>the fired former employees of the "Azur Welkin" project used discarded original
Silly how that backfired so hard, is like they didn't even think Manjuu could do an official statement.
Assuming this is true, that is.
It is true since Manjuu is actually suing them and also they admitted to it. Of course in their mind it was supposed to be "Me so sad they didn't use my cool concept art" rather than "Frick you I'm gonna ruin you for firing me"
>this is your Raymond

>wall of text

Holy shit dude, go fricking back
Cute girls in Azur Promilia or old men in Wuthering Waves?
Whichever one gets desperate enough to give us actual (you) pandering.
According to WuWa threads, the males are for (You) and the girls hate you (act like ungrateful schizos).
>fujo game
Ok, this game is 100% dead on arrival KEK
>and the girls hate you (act like ungrateful schizos).
No, this was the complaint people had on other sites. That they turned the girls into the MC's groupies when they rewrote the story so you're like the super special chosen one everyone loves. Initially they were more untrusting of (you) but incels hated it so they rewrote the whole thing.
Why are you people always screeching about "incels"?
If characters are acting like c**ts to the MC, then don't be surprised no one liked them and didn't want to pull for them.
The other anon who explain the story situation about WuWa said something totally different from you about how characters treated (you) like shit for no reason and it was just bad writing, i'm willing to trust him way more than you since
>incel
Go fricking back troony
t.ranny
That was CBT1. This anon
doesn't have the whole story.
In CBT1 after you beat the shit out of Crownless you do your whole passing out thing and wake up with a gun shoved in your face. CN flipped out. This would be an exaggeration for you and me, but gun laws being what they are over there this is a bigger deal. That combined with the fact that you literally just saved them by killing the monster they couldn't makes it seem laughable. They wouldn't have had an issue if they were just suspicious and untrusting. And you go on to keep saving them and fixing their stupid problems and they still dump on you.
The actual issue was way later on when you kill Hot Coldman on the motorcycle. That fricking unhyperbolic furry that nobody liked the design of shows up after you beat it in the cutscene and steals the kill. Then acts like he did everything himself. There's this entire dialogue afterwards where the characters talk about always wanting to kill the thing and he says he's finally done it. As if you didn't do literally everything except the last hit. He then later asks you what you're still doing there in what is seen as a dismissive manner.
CBT2 changed everything after the backlash, but now they are sickeningly sweet. CN players aren't even happy about that, but they still think it's better than CBT1. There's schizo theories floating around now that the niceness is all a ruse to manipulate Rover into loving and aiding the city faction, but time will tell on that front.
>Rover
Ok but why is he named after a dog?
If you want to be accurate he isn't and it instead alludes to "roving" or constantly moving.
If you want to shit post, it's an allusion to how you're nothing more than a glorified dog fetching things for your master fetch quest givers. This was the meme for the earlier iterations where nearly all quests were "go fetch me this." CBT2 altered a lot of it.
They should've given him a better name. AP will have Starborn, HSR has Trailblazer, even Traveller is better.
Yep
Looking forward to the grand opening.

Holy shit that would make me furious if i was playing that, getting KS in a single player game by a furry would make be insta uninstall any game
Now you're just exaggerating. How could you be furious at this? It's a wonder they felt the need to redesign him into a kemonomimi.
Okay forget about the KS thing, i would not even get in that part in the first place after seeing this giga furry shit, i would just have uninstalled the game right here.
I don't think a single streamer or youtube playthrough of it that I looked up had anything nice to say about him. For a lot of them you could see their faces fall when the scene he was introduced in revealed him fully and more than one was actually disgusted/shocked.
Not a surprise, he looks like fricking shit
Kek that sounds like the slime accident. Any video of this?
>slime accident
QRD?
He's probably talking about E.T.E. Chronicle where the MC was a slime that every girl in the game disliked to some degree
First time I heard about this story, the fricking horror goddamn.
Original image of the characters mentioned. Hard to fathom they bungled things that much.
I feel like I remember reading this back then. Is the studio still around? Even now I still don't think the woman placed in charge was real, there definitely had to be some backroom deals going on to ensure the game failed. How could anyone think that altered story would be good?
The slimeball incident is referring to the game x2:eclipse, just read the screencap for a QRD
. The point is no one no if the ntr feminist allegation are true or not. No one on 4chen have even heard of the game until recently. Personally i think most of the post on this game is either half truth or straight up bs by some chink who hate the game. We just have no way to confirm it since nobody here know Chinese.
>No one on 4chen have even heard of the game until recently.
What the frick are you talking about? I made those fricking posts in the screencap back in 2020.
My point is no one know the gameplay, the story, the character, even the existence of this game before (you)r post. All the information come from Chinese source which very few anon here even know. Not only that but it's very easy for someone to post fake information here for (you). So am i suppose to trust (you)r post which has must credibility as "Trust me bro, my dad work at nintendo"? Hell the entire existence of this game might as well be fake for all we know
>Hell the entire existence of this game might as well be fake for all we know
Anon, if you want to shitpost you can't make it a claim that takes 10 seconds of googling to verify.
?si=kSZsWNLwdEf16cRg
They redesigned him. Pic related. Feels like it might've been begrudging because his story quest last beta had him tell a sob story about a race of furry creatures considered monsters where one decided to join humans and so plucked out all his fur and ripped out all his claws to try and fit in and gain trust. Made it sound as terrible as possible.
I'm losing all interest I had for WuWa. Seems like they had a vision of a game for fujos, yumes and furries and we're begrudgingly forced to change it due to player dissatisfaction. You just know they will revert back to their old vision once the game survives the launch. I have zero trust in them. Waiting for AP seems to be the way to go.
What direction the game goes remains to be seen at least a year from launch based on how many people stay and also if AP releases by January 2025 and how it affects the 3d open world games ecosystem.
>nobody knows if it is true even tho the game fricking crash and burn because of it
Like cmon now, you literally just want to pretend is not real at this point.
This is common feminist strategy. They will gaslight you by mixing lies and half truth. YWNBAW
>No one on 4chen have even heard of the game until recently.
2020 was four years ago troony
>furry shit
Damn that's one massive red flag. Just like how the fujo writers on genshit keep propping off the homos.
>but now they are sickeningly sweet. CN players aren't even happy about that
Can't blame them, thats how literally every character is written both in genshit and troony rail, it makes them all look like caricatures with no personality besides begging you to roll for them
Only to cuck you a couple patches down the line after you spent money on them, it's hilarious. genshin has had to patch things a bit with their playerbase after the Yoimiya incident, I can't believe people kept playing the game after that.
And they did it again with Furina, Navia and even 4* characters like Noelle cucking the player. Genshin became a huge fricking meme in CN for a reason.
>they did it again with Furina
When?
>Navia
When?
>Noelle cucking the player
The Mika thing? I didn't play back then but wasn't this out of proportion?
>Furina
People have a hard time differentiating Furina's mom Focalors (who is for Toilette) from Furina herself (who is for [you]). Can't blame him on that one too hard.
>Navia
I have no idea she's the most [For You] character since Ayaka. Only thing I can think of is the cuckposters who think that tea is a metaphor for raw breeding sex, because their minds are melted by NTR doujins.
>Noelle
Oh 100% the fujoshitter devs are shipping her with Mika now to cuck the players, that's not even in question any longer.
Both Furina and Navia was wierd since I remember them being very for (You) even during Lantern Rite. Even Clorinde was jacking the player off.
Furina didn't evengo together with Neuvilette to the tea village, she went alone and was hanging out with (You). There is 0 romance between Clorinde and Navia. No idea about the Noelle thing. You sound like a cope shipper though. Only what's in game matters and not your headcanon.
>Both Furina and Navia was wierd since I remember them being very for (You) even during Lantern Rite
They always do this shit and then cuck the player a few patchs after, that's the whole point of why chinks get so mad about gayshit
>You sound like a cope shipper though
I stopped playing genshin after i gave Fontaine a try homosexual, i don't even play this garbage anymore much less shipped anyone in this game ever. Gameplay got boring and i fricking left, multiple homosexual banners also killed my interest
But they didn't cuck the player yet with Furina or Navia. Lantern RIte was last patch and both Furina and Navia came in their pants when they saw the Traveller and even Clorinde was praising the Traveller. Promotional images for out of game events are made by various artists not affiliated with Hoyo.
>yet
KEK even he knows another Nahida, Hu tao or Yoimiya situation might happen at any moment
>yet
>furina
Shipped with Neuvillette just like Hu tao is shipped with Zhong li and i'm not talking about about Focalors
>navia
yuribait with clorinde
>Noelle
And yes it was the event and for chink writing that was super romantic for them
>Confusing Foc and Fur
Many such cases
>yuribait with clorinde
What are you on about, those two interacted like once and she hates Clorinde. Meanwhile, she acts the most [For You] out of any character besides Kamisato "Holds the Archon Quest Hostage Until You Date Her" Ayaka.
>disingenuous genshitter
Yeah keep pretending that you are not a cuck for playing this gay game. She still yuribait with her btw
I actually uninstalled after the AQ shitfest for Fontaine, but the fact that Yurishitters and Shipshitters got annoyed with Navia's story quest is enough to tell me that she's for (you).
>Navia's story quest is enough to tell me that she's for (you).
So does every female until her banner is over and then they ship the character with another male/girl LMAO
I mean, Yoimiya got a full freaking date quest with more lore than a good chunk of Shitstaine's AQ well after her banner ended. But enough about Genshit, what AL designs do we want to see ported over to AP?
>what AL designs do we want to see ported over to AP?
I want hags. I want raven or white haired hags. I want brown hags. I want monster girls. I want humanoid female pokemon. I want ara ara hags.
I want expressionless big booba cold hearted hags.
>i want hags
I hope you like Pammys bro
>its okay i got cucked because they trow me a bone after the backlash
lol
lmao even
>But enough about Genshit, what AL designs do we want to see ported over to AP?
I'm more interest to know about how the censorship of the characters will go and how the skins will be in the game
When did Yoimiya cuck us? I legit do not remember this. Was it an event?
He's probably talking about that one Inazuman festival quest where she's hanging out with Childe in the forest for a bit. It was a meme for a it. Somebody posted about it earlier.
Goooood fricking dammit
I'm glad I uninstalled
CTRL + F her name and Scroll up and you are going to see it, people already posted about it here. No need to repeat the same discussion again
This is the problem with Mihoyo's "omnipandering." It's actually just cuckshit since you roll a girl and then you pray to god she doesn't turn into a dyke or get paired off by them with another male character. In other games, if the girl is for (you), every time she shows up, she's for (you) instead of some vague shit to please all the shippers.
No. You don't understand. Black Swan is for (Me) damn it!
I can't wait to see how they cuck their players with firefly
My dad works for the IPC. Patch after you roll her a quest goes into her relationship with Destiny's Slave and the doc keeping her alive.
Funily enough, they haven't done that in HSR. They flipflop with Bronya and Seele, but for black swan and yomi, they don't interact at all in the story unless (you) are involved, are distrustful of each other, and warn (you) to not associate with the other.
Maybe in 2.3 when the story ends they will join forces and kiss and whatnot, but as far as we know up to 2.2 the animated short not only was not canon, but leaded up to nothing.
I do like how they walked back the march/dang pairing and made march super pandering, and wrote dang out of the story for a whole year, same with kafka, super for (you), at least for now.
Not him, but are you really trying to fool others into believing they aren't pushing Bronya and Seele? After the "i'll give those two some alone time" in Belobog? The "you just don't want to make Bronya upset" in the museum event? After the penacony telephone JUST released where it's set up to sound like they're fricking and your only dialog options after listening in is something along the lines of "you are incredibly frustrated" and "it was just getting to the good part!"
That's a flip flop?
Somehow i have a feeling this game will flop harder than tower of fantasy. I remember ToF even having more hype than WuWa have right now
ToF did have much much more hype than WuWa and even then their designs and story were very innoffensive, unfortunately their game design and technical team were not fit to manage the millions that wanted that sweet taste of the genshin killer.
>source: john prom ilia told me in a dream

Crazy to think that a woman is the head of Manjuu and she has to deal with all that shit.
She knows what her players want and maybe she would cave in and throw yuriBlack folk a bone if not for the fact that they hate her and wish for her death on CN, so she just doubles down on harem pandering to shit on them and it makes her actual players happy.
>men were pretty chill until mentally ill women(and "women") forced their views
crazy how this always happens.
>advertise a game with a female MC
>morons say that people that want a female MC shouldn't be playing the game
You do realize it's the other way around.... right?
Yeah but now Manjuu has put themselves a big fat target in their back, the CN community is overwhelmingly supporting Azur Promilia and Manjuu which means malicious group will be more inspired to sabotage the game and Manjuu for what they mean in the current culture war.
Manjuu CEO hates feminists so I think we'll be fine.
Knowing how many more male exist on CN community thanks to their 1 child policy thing I hope they got their just desserts and instead the the fujo and yume games that get nuked instead
If the worst Korea can frick up feminist on gaming imagine CN players
The good news is that after crashing the stock market in their already struggling economy when they almost started regulating gacha elements they're more hands off. May be able to avoid the unpersonning saga Azur Lane experienced for the most part.
I trust Manjuu to deliver
Are haremgays really so fragile that unless a female character INSTANTLY falls in love and worships you they are start to seethe and complain that the game is bad?
It's one of the reasons I can't enjoy harem shit media anymore, it reduces every single female character to one archetype with no personality and character on her own.
What does it matter? Just look at Troon Rail. You'd have a better chance of finding engaging female characters in harem porn games.
Reminder that this fricking brat doesn't wear a bra
All anime girls are bawds
Not even a e-girlgay but she's cute, especially because of the pout.

you can probably just search it on bilibili to find out some summary of the story, but that require you to know chinese
pretty sure they rewrote the story and killed off the slimeball and you play as something they found in the ruin/lab or someshit, rest of the female cast aside for the 2 early female chars have official pairing similar to fgo
>hitler having a meltdown at his desk meme
I am braindead, but I still want to know.
After digging a little it was a video showcasing some of the really weird NTR dialogues and shit that actually give affection points.
And

>various videos showing other gacha around the time, especially Arkknights for some reason, as characters beating it
>videos of it consulting PGR and Girls' Frontline for advice since they had their own controversies
>"This half-dead game has lasted for three years. If there was no internal beta, it might be better than it is now."
It actually EOS'd at the tail end of last year. Also newer videos post-GF2 mention Raymond / Mrs. Raymond entering the battlefield.
No matter what happens at the very least it is impossible that AP goes anywhere near this off the rails.
What the frick is wrong with those companies? Is like they don't even want to make money and are more interested in cucking the players just for the laughs.
Kinda based in a way
More like giga moronic to lose your job and many others people job over this kinda shit
Are you sure you are not a woman? Only femoids are this petty.
It's a yuritroony who is seething for the 3rd thread now. He's spamming off cooldown in the previous thread and here posting essays how he hates chink and west incels for not liking the female MC.
Yeah...? That is exactly what happened with that game and GFL2, along with some parts of Genshin. Feminist have this plan; they sleep with high executives in companies and make them hire their sleeper agents, after a while they get into director roles and start putting this crap in, and the rest of the company can't do anything as the CEO is joined at the hip with them.
It's the whole reason lots of korean games fired a ton of artists for doing the small dick gesture in illustrations (with a little bit of digging you can easily find out if the artist was a feminist or not).
Shift Up (Destiny Child, Nikke, Stellar Blade) fired all feminist women in their staff not too long ago, they preemptively wanted to avoid damage to Stellar Blade before release (they still managed to frick up the first anniversary event and unit, usually the most important event for a mobage).
homie, what the frick are you talking about? Listen, i just gonna break it down to you: "ALL GACHA DRAMA CAN BE BOILED DOWN TO INCOMPETENT WRITERS AND/OR WHAT THE WRITERS VISION FOR THE STORY, THE CHARACTER DO NOT ALIGN WITH THE PLAYER WANT. That's it. That's the simple truth. It's not some feminist conspiracies to destroy gacha, it just a bunch of idiot can't even write something simple as character x sucking off the player avatar or they're simply to high off their own fart thinking their writing is the best thing ever (i'm talking to you Mihoyo writers). Even Machiavelli spell it out for you: "Always assume incompetence before looking for conspiracy". This anon go straight to conspiracies, then anyone wonder why gacha communities is so full of schizo.
Why on earth do you think FMC is going to ruined the game? You do know that gender choice is INDUSTRY STANDARD RIGHT? Most gacha and non gacha games has gender choice or ambiguous gender. Neither has ever stop or discouraged waifugay from self insert. Let me tell you a secret, the yurigay won't be playing this game. You know why? Because yurigay only care for two type:
>gacha girl x gacha girl
>FMC (locked gender, no gender select) x gacha girl
So let see, gender choice (that's strike 1), manisraelite has a history of self insertpandering which mean no shipshit (that's strike 2). So it safe to say yurigay won't be playing this game. And if you think FMC will make the game sanitized, let me remind you it's China therefore the game will be santized by DEFAULT regardless of the FMC existing or not.
He's not arguing in good faith.
That's right, women are based. There are no malicious actors, pufferfish is a dangerous incel conspiracy. To prove this AP should make the blacksmith bull the main love interest of the MC.
Explain to me what's happening here in this pre-rewrite video CN anons.
What are some tasteful character design elements that can make AP more fanservicey before going into full coomer territory?
bodysuits
I quit AL for a while when they were getting gestapo'd yrs ago and started doing bodysuits and tamer final designs compared to leaks (there were 4 at the time I quit but since then, today the game looks like it's fine and unashamedly coomer.)
Yeah the CCP magnifying glass moved away from them again. AP seems tamer as a baseline so low risk of it happening to them.
Such a shame. Can't have shit.
That happened not only for AL, but for most games that had a chinese version. Not only that, I noticed that several artist on twitter also avoided posting anything NSFW for over a year, only at some point in last year they started post porn again, all of them at the same time.
Luckily now things are seemingly back to normal levels of lewd.

>morons still think manjuu wouldn't record double the voice lines for male and fem mc
Not only they can, these will only make a difference in your home and character quests so its not a lot of voice lines either, this game is shipping with 18 character tops and monthly banners. Obvioulsy the Main Quest is not going to have any romance regardless if the fem mc stays or not.
>blatantly samegaying and avoiding the argument
I'm gonna bet you are some mihoyo cultist coming to falseflag here to create infighting, literally what's happening in tieba btw.

It's just the same shipper from /gig/ shitposting off cooldown.
>x stops
>y starts
Hi /alg/ is calling back, schizo
That gave it away for me too, he's just trolling to cause infighting.
For anon who don't understand why the word "cucked" keep getting throwing around in gacha thread, i will explain to you as simple as possible. "Cucked" in gacha term mean gacha char x spend more time with gacha char y instead of the player avatar. Most player want to essentially "play house" with gacha char x,y,z but the writers decide make gacha char x,y,z interacted with each other (almost always non-romantic) excluding the player avatar which end up making the player felt "cucked". So you must be thinking what's the problem? Simple, number one it's piss the player off because their wants to have an emotional connection with the gacha char (basically a psuedo romantic relantionship) and number two it's always end up attracting the shipper crowds. Take Touhou as an example, there isn't any romance in the mainline Touhou games but that doesn't mean people don't naturally try to pair certain characters together. All it requires is one character giving attention to another character or two characters being near eachother. That's all it takes for rumors or theories or ships to start and Japanese/Chinese writers SHOULD KNOW THIS. Again, take the Nahida-Scaramouche drama as an example, Nahida has more screen time with Scaramouche than with Aether even if it isn't romantic in the slightest.
Everyone should NOT BE SURPRISED in the slightest that Nahida got paired with the villain seeing as how she gives him more attention than the protagonist. This isn't even a matter of self-inserting anymore and is instead a matter of Aether being loveless despite being powerful or rescuing people or summoning people, which simply isn't going to happen if we go by the numbers. It is entirely the writers' fault if a pairing happens because there was canonical "evidence" or "fuel" for that ship to be made.
Didn't read, already know gacha players are moronic.

So is Abby our designated travel companion?
If i have to guess, she's the default flying mount in her dragon form.
Frick I hope not, we don't need that shit.
She's obviously going to be the silent e-girl dragon side kick, if you don't like that shit go back to genshit
genshit is the reason I don't want a "travel companion" though
We don't even know if the game features exploration as a central element. Considering we can just hop on a dragon and fly everywhere I kinda doubt it.

Nah she will be your daughter, AL already has a daughter sim built in, probably the test grounds for Abby raising.
> AL already has a daughter sim built in
Huh? When was that added?
February
meme update
It was the best thing AL got in years off doing jackshit, now its getting 3D dorms in may.
I re-installed AL last month just to play the new gamemode and spent the whole day just to get all the endings. I love her so much
Best content AL has to offer at the moment.
>So is Abby our designated travel companion?
She is my designated fertility goddess.
I can't speak for HSR as I don't play that game, but I have not seen a single interaction between two playable characters in Genshin I would describe as romantic, and I'm a day one player. Sounds to me like you people obsessively follow deranged Twitter shippers that start screaming CUTE AND CANON the second they see two characters of the same sex interact and this has somehow warped your brains into thinking they must be right.
Because its all bait, there is 0 actual relationships in that game. Flirting with Jean, or the implication of what Navia calls you is probably as close as it gets. Bait is enough for shippers to insist on their headcanons though.
>deranged Twitter shippers that start screaming CUTE AND CANON
this will happen to promilia regardless, its so funny seeing chinks being so delusional in their rioting for something that never stems from anything other than shitposting
That sounds like cuck cope when the devs clearly starts with (you) pandering just to ship the girl with another dude/girl right after their banner is over. Just because there is no one actually dating in genshin, doesn't mean they are not baiting people and causing drama.
You're mentally ill if you see cycling everywhere. You were already proven wrong with Furina and Navia.
>already proven wrong
lol
lmao even

What Mika and Noelle thing, you deranged cuckold fetishist? Two shy characters interacted in an event and were both shy. Did you even play it, or, hell, watched a Youtube clip of it, or are you purely going by shitposts made by other mentally ill freaks like you? Did you by any chance see a few Youtube comments jokingly saying "lmao this is NTR" and took it seriously? There is not a single mentally sane person who saw that event and thought of it as NTR. Not a single one.
He's not arguing in good faith.
Not a single shiptroon argue in good faith, the minimal interaction between 2 characters and people start the shiphomosexualry, etc.
Problem is, half the people talking about this stuff are secondaries. They hear about the it via shitposts then just take it as fact.
>cuck cope
Will be a amazing game, it will be even better if they manage to filter all Mihomosexual homosexuals

I only see (You) sperging like a genuine schizo. A very boring one at that.
imagine the C&C
Nooooo! All the girls are suppose to be for ME only, they are not allowed to interact or have a life of their own.
Yes it's that simple
Even blue archive girls talk to each other all the time that's why its easy to deduce that harem schizo is a hoyodrone falseflagging to incite infighting.
You can go back to /gig/
That doesn't count.
>Twitter shippers that start screaming CUTE AND CANON
You mean /gig/ and /hsrg/ lmao? If the devs pander to shippers, how is it our fault for the fanbase being full of them and screeching at da incelz.

To my fellow ALgays present:
What do you think of AP? What was your initial reaction?
What do you think of Manjuu as of recently?
>What do you think of AP?
>What was your initial reaction?
>What do you think of Manjuu as of recently?
Manjuu can go and frick itself, after years of wiener teasing Azur Welkin they release this shit.
>What do you think of AP?
Looks fun, I have high hopes for it
>What was your initial reaction?
I was initially kinda pissed, the CN anni updates are a lot of what I wanted so I'm happy
>What do you think of Manjuu as of recently?
My opinion of Manjuu hasn't really changed over the 6 years I've played the game. Their decision making is annoying but they do do right by their players.
>what was your initial reaction?
You know its hard to describe, AL before march 20 2024 felt really different, i doubt i will ever forget waking up that morning and reading /alg/ talking about promilia shit, i had to go back to the previous thread and i really couldn't believe it myself for a moment, i was actually thinking Manjuu was making some 3d chibi game based on these they made for the bilibili channel, its been so long and manjuu seemed like a small company all this time that it feel outlandish showing a game of this scope. I honestly was pissed at first because i defaulted into thinking it was a genshin clone with males and everything. But then i realized the whole picture and got on board, it looks nice, it looks fun, manjuu seems to be carrying their casual philosophy into AP and also just from what we saw plus the webpage they gave it already a lot of flavor, so as was digging more and looking at the characters the more i liked it. Now i will play it and i hope it succeeds.
My biggest concern now is that manjuu is self publishing this world wide.
>What do you think of AP?
Not much. Got the vibe of a Genshin clone with tacked on Palworld stuff. The game's been in development since 2021 though. That's the wildest coincidence in the world. It has to be because the alternative is they started developing all the Palworld shit AFTER Palworld released.
>What was your initial reaction?
"Looks kind of generic. These characters are kind of lame. I like those few though. I want to frick that [kibo]. Wait, building and mining? Frick is that Palworld shit? I hate Palworld. Surely you can ignore most of it though. Probably will be a solved problem a week in."
>What do you think of Manjuu as of recently?
They're above decent. The only reason i'm willing to give it a chance is because it's by Manjuu.
> That's the wildest coincidence in the world.
You know i actually think Manjuu has some ungodly luck, they released AP in the middle of a perfect storm and the success and traction and it has on CN speaks volumes, AP got announced just as:
>CN is having a literal cultural war and the market is very hungry for waifu games that aren't just png collectors.
>WuWa finished their second CBT and everything is more or less ready to release without any capacity of responding to new competition.
>ZZZ entered late stage development and had a major censor scandal last year.
>Mihoyo is domestically having tumultuous reputation in general.
>Palworld became a world wide phenomenon.
Now they have to carry that momentum.
Their luck is abnormal, but not abnormally good. At least not always. They had the momentum drained by the males in gacha controversy followed immediately by the Anson controversy. It didn't make as big a splash in the west as I would've expected either. They're walking on eggshells.
>They had the momentum drained by the males in gacha controversy followed immediately
that literally catapulted them further though, everyone was in doubts if it was going to be a girls only gacha before they step up and clarified the situation, the entire cn community and many foreign to AL cheered the announcement.
>It didn't make as big a splash in the west as I would've expected either
That's not really an indicator, both palworld and genshin only got big after release through word of mouth, but the online gossiping was more less the same the same as AP got, which was covered by every gacha content creator in the last 10 days, if anything AP is in danger of cooling all the hype if they don't have more things to tease in the following months.
thread too long, can I get a qrd?
>release date?
>is it open world slop?
>will there be panties?
thank you
>release date?
no one knows
>is it open world slop?
yes
>will there be panties?
Most likely no, but who knows is Manjuu
cheers, the girls look quite frickable so I'll passively look forward to it
>release date
Game was literally just announced, no updates yet
>open world
Yes, but too soon to say what kind it is
>panties
Yes, but low detail
love notYuuka
love notDanHengIL (female)
we don't know
yes
probably not, they already got their licence so its most likely winnie the poh approved now, have this girl who has a very high cut if that works for you
Boy, these threads are active.
They better make her capturable
I remember seeing a pal that looked like a pre-evolution form of her. Probably there will be a method to obtain her egg and then evolve her into that form.
when's the beta
Tomorrow
you mean today, tomorrow it's over
i played it two days ago
theres a sex scene with the elf
the CN beta had the sex scene with the elf? damn, the JP version had the sex scene with your other twin
what the hell
Kneel before the Azur Promilia GODS
We RUN this board
A lot of people must be really looking forward to it with this much discussion. I don't lurk /vmg/ much but this is one of the most active threads I've ever seen on this slow board.
yeah, it's about time for the 4th thread.
I think that playing a gacha where every single character hates me is an interesting prospect
Only if I can frick them to make them like me.
You can frick them but they still hate you and have to live with it
>i think that being a cuckold in a gacha is an interesting prospect
so do a lot of devs and forever online troony homosexuals, you have a big pool of gacha to choose from
AP isnt for you though
The threads were fun. See you again when there's news
Cute yuri
Chinese netizens want to murder this cute innocent yuri
Not really. They can still scissor each other as long as they also want my dick.
>Chinese netizens want to murder transbians
based
Imagine if this shot was instead drawn and part of a seasonal anime. It would have been the top seller of the season.
>Generic Fantasy SOL/ISEKAI
Yeah no, maybe like in 2014 but the market is too saturated now
My sister is so cute
God i want to rape that tiny fairy
I really wanna see the character customization they talked about
I don't want to wreck your hopes and dreams but i think that was a mistranslation from the mtl
But it would be pretty cool. Imagine if they sold costume sets and you could dress the girls to your liking and even mix parts.
Considering its manjuu its very possible.
Blumine is too cute I hope she becomes the little sister character
Things to discuss have dried up unless Manjuu drops a new PV, chinks are still in their internal civil war over the MCs.
There's now a new civil war between Blue Archive and Mahjong Soul players. Looks like Blue Archive has fallen...
Doom…won
?
Wha, its april fools
Only the mahjong soul girl joining Blue Archive was april fools, the collab itself isn't. Mahjong Soul will apparently be getting BA characters.
And why would there be a fuss about that?
Mahjong Soul has an affection system, which includes being able to make a "contract" with the character. Some Mahjong Soul are now taunting BA players saying that they will be able to marry their waifu while they can't. Meanwhile BA players are complaining that they don't get anything out of the collab other than now having to deal with NTR bait, and that since Mahjong Soul player can be either male or female, this means BA is now a yuri game.
AL avoided this by doing the friendship tiaras, surely Nexon isn’t that stupid.
AL also made a collab with dolphin wave where the dolphin wave characters were the ones cosplaying as AL skins.
i have no idea wtf you just typed, but don't collab units usually don't have affection system for those kinda games, just like nikke? How any of this makes it BA a yuri game when they just announced the Sensei of the game to be a male character? I don't play BA, but your entire post sounds like bait for people who don't play Blue Archive.
Technically anime sensei isn’t game sensei.
Also, collab characters aren’t canon.
>Technically anime sensei isn’t game sensei.
What?
How i'm being defensive? I'm just asking because your post don't make much sense and sounds like bait, i don't even play BA.
>Collab units in Mahjong Soul all have affection
If that's the case BA devs are moronic if they don't do something about it. Korean trucks soon?
I dunno about trucks, most people still think the collab is april fools and don't realize what it means. Chinks are the first ones going to war but we'll see if other servers care.
It does sounds like Aprils fools joke, a bad one
>what?
BA is multiple different universes/timelines
The guy on stream who presented it said anime sensei is separate from game sensei. However from what we have seen from anime sensei so far he is pretty accurate to game sensei. So both can be (you)
>BA is multiple different universes/timelines
First i skipped BA because there was not a PC client, but now i'm glad i just skipped in general because i hate that kinda bullshit.
>BA is multiple different universes/timelines
>First i skipped BA because there was not a PC client, but now i'm glad i just skipped in general because i hate that kinda bullshit.
Usually I would agree with you but it never really comes up except the one time it did they actually made some of the best kino I have ever seen in a gacha story. If you are interested don't let that keep you away I promise it's not even a thing 99% of the time.
>multiple universes are canon!
Sounds like a lazy way to handle them if you ask me. Just accept the fact that the anime one is canon since it adapts the game's "timeline".
>multiple universes are canon
An entire volume of the game is dedicated to this very concept.
So we're gonna get phrenapates timeline in anime? No?
>Technically anime sensei isn’t game sensei.
>What?
BA devs want their cake and to eat it too. They try to omnipander the selfinsert even though it completely breaks down in the reality of the events in the game. There is no possible way for you to be female but they push it as a possibility anyways because they think it will get them a few fujo bucks. It's sad really, the one black mark on the game.
Calm down, no need to get so defensive for some pngs
Collab units in Mahjong Soul all have affection. And the point is that women can use it to yuribait since they can say "well, Mahjong Soul player can be female and I married your waifu so she actually can be lesbian".
>Meanwhile BA players are complaining that they don't get anything out of the collab
This right here screams April Fools
The real question is why the frick BA doesn't have some marriage like mechanic.
because the characters have canon ages, that's also why Sensei is a shota looking early 20 yo
>because the characters have canon ages
They can just slap on bridal gowns and say its pretend.
still won't stop the asiatic feminists of accusing the game of borderline pedophilia, its a korean game after all
Reminds me of when IS put Sanaki in a gown for her bridal alt and people still got upset about it even though she says its just pretend.
>playing games with desync'd servers
When will we get some more news or info?
AL’s CN anni at the latest, which is at the end of May
I wonder how heavy on AP stuff is going to be AL's anniversary lol
They will be rubbing one at the players that are still angry.
/snowg/ is getting destroyed by NTR cucks right now. Sad to see. Hope it doesn't happen to the AP general once that drops.
Why?
Because the devs are deleting males from the game.
That’s it?
They are deleting the male logistics (something that give characters stats) and that is enough to make people wanna raid their general lol. Not surprising, yuritrannies already raided their general after the devs said Snowbreak would have no yuri and wouldn't repeat the mistakes of GFL2
It's probably gfl gays raiding them anyway
People was making fun of them on Ganker for making less money than Snowbreak, so i guess that would make sense is them raiding
That speaks more about Ganker being a shit hole than the quality of these games to be honest.
I decided to look into the BA collab, the collab girls already in MJS are platonic as frick.
>incels blowing things out of proportion
lol, lmao even
The Raymond event was also pretty much platonic, didn't stop the game's reputation from being destroyed because of it. This collab is technically worse because at least Raymond never made it to the game.
I dunno, I agree with the chinks on Raymond. I find it hard to say giving family heirlooms/belongings to someone is not romantic. Now if we are talking another toothbrush thing? Yeah that was blown out of proportion, it is well within her character to give you a toothbrush an after seeing the sheer amount of sugar sitting on your desk.
Do you really think they gave the player a toothbrush for valentine was with well-intention after adding the handmaid's tale book to her room? You can't simply turn your back on these smug fricks.
Taking everything else into consideration, sure. As its own thing I think it’s fine. Mica managed to work themselves into a hole where everything they do will be scrutinized. Which is their own fault for letting it get this way to begin with.
As a CN player, I realized for the first time how important cultural differences are, so important that they can completely subvert a person's view of a thing.
Take the one-and-a-half-hour voicelines as an example. They contain a lot of sexually suggestive remarks in a Chinese spoken environment. Any Chinese who hears that voiceline will immediately realize 95’s deep love for Raymond. It's not just as simple as "In the voice file, she called NPC Raymond's name 66 times. Mention obsessed with his music. Never mentioned commander (player) once." or "Chinese men do not allow their women to communicate with other men." . And the latter statement seems to be very popular here, leading many people to think that CN players are fools.
Yeah, I think a big issue are cultural differences. I don't know chinese so I only listened to the event in japanese, and in that version although there is some shipping with Raymond there's nothing that bad. But probably the chinese translation would sound way worse.
>chinese translation
That's the original, you fool.
I do find it funny how people seem to ignore the woman who was the cause of all this (of course it was a woman, men don't write this kind of stuff), Star. She is the head of the project, most likely trying to sabotage stuff like the other slime mobage. I bet you she is sleeping with Yuzhong
https://www.reddit.com/r/gachagaming/comments/1av99u6/comment/krpumvq/
I had a feeling too, seemed like leddit
yeah chinks are the ones not happy about the collab, i don't think anyone else cares.
Lots of chinks are already saying they will stop playing if the collab goes through so I wonder if we will see a significant decline in revenue if it happens.
the jokes are splashing through tieba
I'm curious to see how Nexon responds.s
The only shitty think about it is that we get nothing in BA for it.
Tbh i always thought there was a unwritten rule about Waifu only gachas never collabing with other waifu gachas or games that has bond relationships of some kind. BA breaking this rule for no reason and no gains to their community sounds really moronic.
Only cuckbait, trolls and useless drama (mostly in CN)
I remember the Azur Lane x Idolmaster collab. There was a ton of criticism from idolmaster players because they didn't want their idols to marry the admiral, either because they self-inserted themselves as producer or because idols should be pure and not marry. Due to that they are the only units in Azur Lane you can't marry.
There also was an attempted collab between the games Soul Tide and Horcrux Academy. Similar to Mahjong Soul, Horcrux Academy has an affection system, but it also has outright marriage and wedding skins. After this was found out the collab was quickly canceled.
Collabs of self-insert waifu gachas never really go well, you're just asking to attract NTRbait nowadays.
>Collabs of self-insert waifu gachas never really go well, you're just asking to attract NTRbait nowadays.
True and the thing is, is not even worth it pissing off your player base just so you can try lure more players to your game, the effect are always the opposite.
It won't attract anyone in the first place because Blue Archive didn't get anything out of it. That's the funny part, the only one who might get more players is Mahjong Soul, meanwhile Blue Archive can only lose them.
>meanwhile Blue Archive can only lose them
Maybe this is just me, but losing the sort of mentally ill bugman who'll ape out every time something doesn't go their way sounds like a benefit in the long run. It's not like they're a majority.
>You have to be mentally ill to not like a company whoring out your characters to other games for money
134k comments by the way.
Ah yes, because comments totally can't be botted. The MJS JP account has 46k likes and neither the nips nor the asiatics seem to be raising a fuss and both are way higher on the pecking order for Yostar when it comes to listening to demands
I miss the days when we could shoo away bugmen like you by posting the Tiananmen copypasta
Nexon could cut off CN completely and absolutely nothing of value would be lost so who cares what insects think?
You don't even know what the collab will be like you soulless insectoid
Free Tibet
you cant even control the games in your own land, what makes you think you can complain about the tactics of the glorious chinese base? absolute mongoloid
>work for years to get access to a closed market
>willingly own-goal in a manner that is especially sensitive at this point in time
But why? What's their end game?
Yostar jp screwed up, they are the ones in control of both IPs you could say its an incestuous publisher collab. Also Azur Lane as well.
Literally no modern collab attracts people from outside of a game just for some collab characters anymore, everyone knows how gacha games plays in the long run
it's the print money button for mahjong soul, since the cost of entry is very high for rolling with no free rolls at the start
most of the tourists don't stay for long anyway, mahjong gameplay filter a lot of players
Nice azur promilia discussion here bros
There isn't anything new to discuss. I think this should be the last /vmg/ thread until there is significantly more news. It would be nice if Manjuu occasionally releases new promo arts of characters/the world/the pokemons(kibos?) at least.

to the person who is replying to himself in the last 3 posts
What puzzles me is why Manjuu decided to go self published for Promilia beyond having the full earnings. Yostar has been their trusted partner since the beginning and they are really good at marketing. Was it because AG flopped and yostar refused until they could see numbers off promilia?
Mihoyo self publishes their games so maybe they thought they could do the same
I'm hoping/coping that Manjuu would write a good story in AP and doesn't want publishers frick up translation
I don't know but...copefully they pull it off
The writing in AL outside the for fun events like the current one is not very impressive. You should not get your hopes up. Also, I think that since they are publishing by themselves for the first time they would have to turn to freelancers even more which would increase the likelihood of stuff being rewritten during "translation."
I'm crossing my fingers that the plot of AP stay close to its aesthetics.
You can't seriously expect a fantasy open world game to not be super cereal for the plot.
I'm not particularly hopeful. Manjuu seems to be extremely quick to bend the knee and CN gets extremely autistic when they know they can bully a dev into submission.
Azur Promilia looks amazing and everything I wanted in a game but combine with with autistic chinks or a company that can be bullied into removing a e-girl from the game and all you have is a recipe for disaster. Might as well stick to Genshin since at least Hoyo is experts at completely ignoring whatever drama they cook up.
All three servers complained about anson, its time to stop coping.
Why would they want to remove a e-girl from the game? To me it seems like you're not being honest
she was never in the game to begin with
>Was it because AG flopped
What the frick? Manjuu made that abomination Aether Gazer? Or does AG stand for something else? Artery Gear?
No, that was Yongshi, the other co owner of Azur Lane that is never brought up in AL discussion, but Yongshi only deals with the backend.
>it's the "they only complained because she was a e-girl" schizo again
we need a second nanking
She will live.
On one hand i don't want to see the story through the m*le mc.
But on the other hand if manjuu caves and she becomes a regular unit there's the possibility of some cute incest shenanigans
Frick...
As our sister
Ok i'll say it, she's prettier than Lumine.
She's pretty hot ngl. I hope they keep that level of fidelity by release, no more painted on clothes/accessories pls.
She. Will. FALL
Please play wuwa later this month...
But I will have to wait for TWO banners before I can pull a cute girl
pray for wuwa launch to overshadow all these google translated dramabaits
come on kuro do something funny
you will never speak japanese/english/korean
They shouldn't have bothered with anything other than japanese dub. The localization issue makes them look bad.
>dub.
You thought it was just the dub? The actual text in every language except CN was FRICKED. The descriptions of weapons and dupe unlocks were completely fricking wrong half of the time Completely made up. JP players couldn't even read anything because of the way they wrote the characters.
I can get Lancer for free at the start in FGO though, why should I bother?
The game looks good but the character designs isn't for me. I'll definitely check it for its first month but will drop it afterwards.
News when?
I have watched the cinematic dozens of times already...
There is no news. In fact, there is no Azur Promilia. It's all a collective delusion we had.
>I have watched the cinematic dozens of times already...
Same, I don't know why but I am addicted to watching it. The game just looks too fricking good man.
I remember doing the same with DokeV... ah to be young and naive again...
The shaman girl has a cute voice
If there are bull/cow furrians then we can expect a Kashino expy?
There might be a cow furrian but I doubt Kashino is popular enough to have an expy. Realistically I think Manjuu would only make expies of the 5-10 most iconic/popular characters.
> I doubt Kashino is popular enough to have an expy.
She literally sparked a controversy because on her skins was too much for twitter troons, and she was already pretty decently positioned on in game polls and fanart count. That doesn't mean she will get one but she is absolutely one of the popular low rarities.
>dickwasher is involved in this
oh for frick's sake, just when I thought a decent game was in development
no, I am still not over his atrocious rendering of Musashi
yes, I am still seething
kys
qrd on Dishwasher hate? Did he draw NTR or something?
he has a history of being a drama queen and attention prostitute
Worse, his draws implied shitcan as Black person.
it could be the resident lvl83 Black person shitting up places as usual, unless i see the moronic seaBlack on the credits hes not in
i mean whats he gonna do, add contrast to images? its obviously fake
In other news: The fem mc thing is still heavily debated on chink forums, NGA is being dominated by ML players and built an echochamber in support of removing the fem mc.
Meanwhile Tieba and Weibo are very divided on the issue squarely 50/50
>Lock male MC
>Add marriage system
We just need these two things.
Personally I like her, she's a really well designed character and I would hate to see her disappear from the game. But I am also solidly in the camp of the haremgays because I don't want to give any fuel to feed the yuri schizos.
They have already done the hard work of making a good looking character, instead of throwing it away I think the best solution for everyone would be to keep her in the game but transition her role in some way.
Either by having only the male appear in cutscenes so that any romantic interaction is limited to him or by making her the characters sister or just a friend.
If they go the sister route they can't do what others have joked about and make her a romantic interest that just wouldn't fly in china. But if she was just a friend you could potentially swing romance into it.
Either way I don't see them removing her completely and if they do I think it would be a mistake. They are really going to have to tread carefully around this issue or risk causing more harm than good.
Oh they would never remove her completely. That's impossible with her being in marketing already and not even the hardest of "lock Male MC" people want her gone.
It's not hard. Just make her a party member you pick up like 10 minutes into the game when you go to meet her as part of the tutorial. No mess; no fuss. Simple and effective. As long as the story makes it clear (You) are the guy what happens to her after hardly changes anything.
Incestuous tension is not illegal on china whatsoever as long as its not explicit.
That explains the CN comics of anthropomorphized Taiwan fricking anthropomorphized China. Not as outrageously rebellious as I thought.
Even better then, let me live out my oriemo fantasies and watch her seethe in the background as I romance the ladies.
Both MCs are pretty, feeling tempted to commission art of them...
Make it wincest art, maybe if we can get enough of it it will spark the idea for yellow chicken.
Do NOT encourage incestious depictions of the pure siblings. They are innocent and on a journey together to save everyone.
They are NOT sleeping together (except sometimes in the same sleeping bag to preserve warmth).
They do NOT practice public displays of affection (except hugs that sometimes last a little too long after looking into each others eyes, but what sibling hasn't been a little awkward at times?)
They do NOT dream about each other (except prophetic dreams and dreams about them wishing to have a peaceful home life together. Platonically.)
Do not stain what is a good, honest relationship. I won't stand for it. They're too rare nowadays. Everyone's too busy getting stuck in washing machines to slow down and breathe it all in.
Stop talking about incest, i can only get so erect.
Someone post THAT scene, you know THAT one.
Do NOT post THAT scene. You do NOT know the one. Keep it that way.
But how could I ever forget THAT scene? When the girls ride up to the house on their bikes and they hear THAT?!?!
It was a simple misunderstanding.
Just IMAGINE being the brother of this blue haired cutie and having been close to her all your life, living together, playing together, growing together and then in the blink of an eye she hits puberty and *boom* she has THIS body, my GOD, it would be a fool's decision to let the opportunity slip, YOU as her close brother and technically her life partner have the all the right given by GOD himself to reap the benefits of caring and tending to her, what kind of moron even wants to go out and spend extra effort on the uncertainty that is another woman when your twin sister is (and always was) right there for you. Just think about it are you really that deluded to believe the thought hasn't crossed her mind either? She probably yearns of her brother's affection and feelings but is just much more shy and collected about it because of the taboo it implies, but she is unmistakably taking the chance as well if it ever comes up. Who is going to say anything anyways? Your parents? Long gone, there's nobody for yourselves but yourselves, you owe nothing to anyone, you are not attached to anyone's morals either, who cares? So don't be a FOOL and be honest with yourself, you have earned it and clearly she wishes for it, take the chance or miss out forever on the purest form of love.
No matter how they end up in game I will be sorely disappointed if there aren't incest doujins.
The yakuza fall in love with the game and prevent them just like the horse girl anime/game.
>game begins
>spawn at the entrance of the city with your sister
>immediately take her to some alley and have sex with her
>give her some womb tattoo spell so she's always on heat
GOTY
Don't be a fool. Anyone that has a younger sister can tell you that it's literally impossible to see them that way.
According to research, people that grow up in the same household have the same smell, which we can only subconsciously pick up. We are hard wired to NOT want to frick anyone with that smell, it's a safelock so that we don't frick our parents or siblings. You need to have a heavy chemical imbalance to want to frick someone that you grew up with.
That being said, I fully approve of making both MC siblings, (you) being the male, and the female being the character you fight with, and both being in love.
>We are hard wired to NOT want to frick anyone with that smell
mmmmm Sounds like a (You) issue
Again, the only cases were siblings frick is when they are raised in different houses, or when they have serious mental issue.
Nobody gives a frick about real life homosexual
That you know of, maybe they just aren't going around telling the world about it hmmm didn't think of that did you?
The Irish say "Hi"
>Mmm ackshually...!
Don't care, didn't ask.
The farm you will plow? That's the Fem mc.
We can turn this whole debacle around, we need to go on those chink forums and get the idea in their heads to push the wincest route. It's the only way to save her while also keeping the gays away.
>It's Oshi no Ko all over again! Avoid this game!
It's possible. It's hard. But it's possible.
Oh it's hard alright, it's very hard.
I SAID IT WAS A FRICKING MISUNDERSTANDING DELET THIS
Ok we just need someone to photoshop the heads of the AP characters onto their bodies during THAT scene and spam it all over chink Ganker. We can do this, we have the technology. Wincest brothers and sisters now is our time to rise up and be heard.
Incest is one of the more popular (and normalgay) tags out there
>avoid this game!
I will now play your game though!
I woul gadly help bu i have no chink phone number or speak chink
fricking incel freaks getting threatened by a little fictional girl lol
incelbait garbage
Get fricked, no digits for you gay.
unspeakable horrors await the homosexual transgressor
repent
Azur Promilia plot leaked
me on the left
MC chose worst girl?
Best one actually
Yeah.
Oh no, now i get why Manjuu didn't ask Yostar for the publishing.
Yostar is fricking moronic and now because of this collab BA threads are gonna be filled with shitposting. I hope Manjuu doesn't frick up either.
Collab girls are not romanceable are they? It's a funny thought to have. Imagine if we could import Mona from Genshin and romance her in this game.
All collab characters are romanceable, though at most they might have one or two slightly flirty line. They do have a contract system which is more than Blue Archive has...
only exception i think is some characters who were already loose by nature, aka kuro the mana bawd
so no, you can't sex miyuki while kaguya is watching
So uh...is the game fun even if you don't understand mahjong?
>import Mona from Genshin and romance her in this game.
It'll be a salvation for her. Only men can frick(other men) in genshin so people who still play Genshin WILL NOT MIND AHAHAHAHAHAHA
>It'll be a salvation for her
Oh I totally agree but sadly it's never going to happen
Just look at the lines from other collab characters. They are all pretty platonic. Hell the VA in the stream said the lines were way more restrictive.
Why are there three threads for a game not out I'm confused
Everyone hoping and coping, it will be the first big budget harem gacha and is very casual looking, expectations and dreams are through the roof.
I want to rhug all the Pammies.
what's rhugging?
hugging with a hard r
You wouldn't Rhug your own sister would you?
I thought i was the only one doing that...
Cute little zoom zoom
Spent a week reading all the threads. Finally get caught up and the conversation has died. Feelsbadman, hope we get some new info soon.
you read all of this? damn, crazy, so what's your stance on the fem mc issue then?
I grew up on stuff like wow and other mmo's. Always thought it was fun to be able to play as a hot girl. The "I just want to stare at a girls ass" meme was real and plenty of my friends felt the same.
So I get the desire to want to play as a girl and I don't think most people have any mental connection to troonys or any of that junk when doing it.
But I also understand that most games will fail if they don't pick a lane and stick with it. Genshin got lucky and just like wow it was the exception and not the rule. I think if they try to appeal to men/women/gays/ and everything in between they will please no one in the end.
I don't know what the best solution is but they need to figure out what they believe in and stick with it come hell or high water. If they are wishy washy and try to make everyone happy it will be quickly forgotten like so many others.
Can I do you
>The "I just want to stare at a girls ass" meme was real
This was me until the animation updates.
Trust the incestchads
All the discussion about what the chinks are talking about I never hear that brought up. I think it's just us talking about it. Besides with the theme of the game and it being 12+ we all know there is no chance in hell it's happening. But it should.
The CEO is a woman so she's probably already considering going that route.
I used to play Tera back in the day and there's this race of e-girl characters called Elin, whenever one showed up, people first reaction wasn't "he's a troony", but "he's a pedo", because everyone assumed coomers made their perfect frickdoll in the character creator. So you are completely right, and judging by almost every MMO infographic dev release, it is still dominated by a majority of female avatar.
I do agree on the fact that Manjuu need to find their audience and stick with it, but IMO they already have that figured out, by having a girl-only gacha, their target audience are coomers who want a waifu collector game, they don't need to narrow that down any further.
>The "I just want to stare at a girls ass" meme was real
ok but by that logic you grew up forcing yourself to stare at fat italian plumber and male elf ass
or it doesnt work that way and you're just a homosexual
what a shit bait, nier made their entire marketing campaign around the idea of staring at 2B ass so it's very much a thing. dev purposefully chose to have a female lead because they know coomer just want to look at sexy girls from every angles.
nobody seriously believe stellar blade player are homosexuals because they want to play as a girl.
It's not bait at all since you jeep contradicting yourself. I feel bad you could never play Max Payne because you'd be staring at a man's ass.
Who are you trying to prove your manhood to little guy? Your bluster is cute I'll admit, makes me want to pin you down and do unspeakable things to your virgin bussy.
/gig/ is the other way homosexual
how am I contradiction myself in a single post exactly? I had no problem playing the ff trilogy on the ps1 the same way I had no problem playing tomb raider. but if you ask me "do you prefer 2B or geralt?" then yeah, the answer is obviously 2B.
we can talk more about incest though
The chink fearmongering about yuri because of the fem mc is so funny, it evidences that they didn't play AL for long enough (or at all) to know manjuu.
It's a completely valid fear, not because of what it will put into the game but because of the crowd it will attract. Yuri shippers are real and they make communities worse. That is what people want to avoid.
its absolutely never happening
my prediction is that mcs will be freely swappable but characters will get exclusive affection voice lines depending on which mc it is, that's how they do these kind of things
>inb4 costs
i assure you its not as expensive as you think it is considering this approach will attract a bigger share of the male audience
AL has a female commander option?
No. The guy probably found a screenshot on google image because he didn't know shit about AL
ah yeah?
That doesn't address the issue in any way. Mihoyo used to be based too back in the day. Look where they ended up. Just because manjuu tosses a few bones to straight guys right now doesn't mean they aren't looking to get a bigger slice of the pie.
Everyone falls to corruption at some point. There are no exceptions.
You are not wrong, but that's if and only if AP gets so massively big they have to reshape focus, and we are talking over 50m in monthly revenue, which i don't think it will. AP making over 10m at month will still make it fall into niche category.
No. It's just that i'm already balls deep into azur lane so i'll accept anything they do in order to keep the company alive.
Based Laffeychad.
The thing is, you are arguing with people who made doomsday scenarios in their head and present them as fact.
You can never have a rational discussion with irrational people.
I don't care, if they want money from their Azur Lane fanbase they must make it male MC only.
Look at Girl's Frontline, look at Mihoyo, look at Fire Emblem. Once they started listening to women, the games became less and less for males and started having gayshit and NTR in it. It is proven in history that once you go from male pandering to omni pandering, companies start listening to females more and more.
>>Look at Girl's Frontline
this was mica's fault not their intention to get to omnipandering
>look at Mihoyo, look at Fire Emblem
omnipandering IPs since their inception
>Girl's Frontline
game had only a male commander at first, then they added female MC option and listened to women. Manga and anime MCs became female, Neural Cloud added males, and we all know what happened to Girl Frontline 2.
>Mihoyo
Honkai Impact was originally for males, it even allowed you to touch the girls as the captain.
>Fire Emblem
Had mostly male MCs and no gay marriage. Then FE Awakening let you choose between male and female MCs. Fates got censored, and Three Houses finally had gayshit.
>Honkai Impact was originally for males
Lmao
You may argue that they also tried to pander to c/u/cks but there's no denying they made (You), the captain's presence apparent outside of the main story.
Yes, it was possible before the mass homosexual winnie the pooh censorships.
Lets be honest, with the massive amount of money that Mihoyo is doing right now, do you think they will want to return to the HI3 formula? seriously.
The female-only gacha market not only is small but extremely competitive as well right now. Nikke, BA and now AP entering the market, people always clamor about "i can play more than one game" but expenditure is always a zero sum game.
moron
Nice argument, moron.
You're moronic thinking AP is in the same league as BA and Nikke. The reason genshit has such a big slice of the pie is because they made the pie and no one else is even competing against them right now.
>You're moronic thinking AP is in the same league as BA and Nikke.
It is on the same league as Nikke and BA because it will attract players primarily from those games exactly because of the gender focus, you think genshin yumes are going to play AP? lmao
You're moronic but I guess only time will prove which of us is right.
What's moronic about it?
And lets hypothesize that Manjuu says "frick it" and cranks up the (You) male pandering for AP to eleven, you actually think that will pull more people outside of the stablished waifu gacha to play it?
Actually yeah
You know, that's another argument in favor of affixing the Male MC and upping the age rating to 16 while introducing marriage and everything, it will exploit both Nikke and BA's weaknesses, Nikke's being that its not a fun game to PLAY and BA's that it is merely platonic and tame for the most part.
If Azur Promilia is already betting itself into this confined demographic there's no reason to not just oust their direct competitors like this.
At this point they would just be reducing their potential player base by increasing the rating, devs usually try their hardest to lower it. That sounds more like a last resort thing they would do if they don't trust in their product. Either way they already are exploiting both BA and Nikke weakness by having a full 3D open world game with high quality model instead of chibis and L2D.
>by having a full 3D open world game with high quality model instead of chibis and L2D.
Nah, harem game players care very little about the gameplay as long as there are girls that they like.
I didn't say anything about the gameplay, only that fully modeled 3D character are more pleasing to look at than chibis.
>you actually think that will pull more people outside of the stablished waifu gacha to play it?
I'm a part of that established waifu gacha crowd and it'd get me to play it where i'm not too keen right to right now yeah.
The combat from the video was giving me weird Blue Protocol vibes for some reason so i'm not playing it for that. I don't really care about the 3D models (that they're having trouble with the boob size on in 3D right now) in and of themselves. The general stamina-loop of these open world games on RNG equipment stat grinding sucks so i'm not doing it for that. If you really like Palworld it's got that, but I don't and see it more like a chore so it's not really doing anything that other games don't already supply. Even beyond my own taste I think it's going to be a hard sell to keep people playing after the first month if it's going to be the same shit. It's a huge ask to get the 3D open-world crowd they're trying to get a piece of the pie of to start another game.
I'm keeping tabs on it to see what they do with the fem MC, but I think the idea that they'd not make it a "choose either or MC" is laughable. Still, I can't help myself from hoping they lock the Male as the story lens and give you the female MC early on. I know though that they'll be the standard choice with the outcome being either there is no pandering or there is some and the community (all forums, fan art, general sentiment) is a hodgepodge of shitposting and yuri-fest.
I think the Fem MC will stay with all that entails and I think it won't affect the game at all. It's impossible to flop unless there is some catastrophic happening around its launch timeframe and even then it wouldn't reflect until the following months.
If you don't like the game then not even the male mc will save it for you, just go elsewhere.
And by the way i was right, this game will only be poaching ftkm other waifu gacha.
No that would definitely save it for me.
>poaching
I'd be picking it up not dropping something else. I want to give it a chance. The only other alternative is Snowbreak, but it has the WuWa problem of every design being kind of lame.
I would say that the problem with snowbreak is that the gameplay loop is very bad, and not fun.
Also they are JUST starting to add pandering stuff for the characters, some have none at all, and every character in the regular gacha has none, so you better roll those limited units.
Not to mention the powercreeping, as expected none of the characters in the standar banner is any good except for maybe one.
Still, I'll rather play that than WuWa.
>some have none at all, and every character in the regular gacha has none, so you better roll those limited units.
Wrong
>powercreeping, as expected none of the characters in the standar banner is any good except for maybe one.
Also wrong
CEO of Manjuu is a woman, AL was created because of her.
Also you don't speak for the entire AL fanbase, you certainly don't speak for me, I'll keep spending in AL because I like the game no matter what happen with AP.
Fear? Took Rune Factory one game to go from a female MC option to forced homosexualry. You do not want gays in your franchise.
Naive moron
Ah yes, a non AL player trying to lecture me, lmao
I love yuri

Thread on tieba talking about the age rating and how it will affect the romancing spectrum of the game. Thread starts with a screencap of an article from a famous news site reporting on the popularity of Azur Promilia on China.
Chinks think that being a +12 game should not give you much expectations because of government's regulations much less with the Pammy race present and with the game getting a lot of spotlight right now, but that's not an entire deal breaker for an oath system depending on how they handle it.
Yeah we need to stop getting our hopes up, this is going to be baby tier romance at best. Maybe during the final scene before eos we get to hold hands with one lucky girl.
Did they remove the gay pandering bull man from the game yet? More troubling than any femc to me.
How does he take out the mask?
Extremely carefully.
>More troubling than any femc to me.
That's the only content he'll get. homosexual won't last long.
What are they gonna replace him with?
girl with mommy milkers
I mean such audience.
They should turn him into a cowgirl.
>FFXIV bunnyboy PFP.
Of fricking course.
Just a reminder that Azur Lane started as a +12 game on CN and that still didn't stop them on their designs and pandering angle. And it was also a top hit when it released so i wouldn't worry about the age rating thing.
Yeah hes just trying to doompost after getting btfo
That was 2017, when the industry was on baby steps and GFL was the only big chinese international release, a lot has happened since and games have been struck with multiple censor from the ccp plus the implementation of gaming hour to minors, you really can't compare then vs now.
Zoomers don't even know that PG rated movies used to have nudity and hardcore violence.
Ratings don't mean shit, it's the culture and right now the culture is dead set against giving straight males anything they want.
>Yae Sakura the most popular Honkai at that time friendzoned you in a event. This event tank her popularity and CN players start hating her even on Genshin.
Yeah... honkai was for males... LMAO
Did the whole thing with Kallen not tip them off to that?
Theresa and Rita(Fallen Rosemary) are the only two actively for (you) characters in that game.
Did honkai have that audience before genshin brought women in? I never see women flock to female only gacha.
You use to be able to molest the girls on the bridge. Like different lines for crotch and boob taps. They had to remove it though and it all went downhill from there.
No. Women pretty much didn't play chink gachas until Arknights started advertising itself as an omnipandering game. But really it was Genshin advertising on Weibo that brought them in.
>Women pretty much don't play games
They still don't. It's fairly uncommon and the few that do are turbo casuals or ultra tryhards (mid by mens standards).
https://tieba.baidu.com/p/8969711901?pn=1
huh, chinks seem to have a beef with yostar and are glad Manjuu is going self published
They're probably upset over the Blue Archive collab in Mahjong Souls.
Some news about the ML war in China:
>Hoyoshills on Bilibili made videos criticizing ML, probably to bury AP
>Both sides turn even more extreme against each other
>The first victims ended up being... Fireflygays (HSR)

>The videos got deleted and the shills pretended it didn't happen
>The first victims ended up being... Fireflygays (HSR)
>HSR fanbase erupts into civil war
Qrd in firefly? Was that character supposed to be for (You) or something?
she wants (you)r d, either male or futa
Very much so
See: 400+ ship fanarts with (you)
https://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=list&tags=firefly_%28honkai%3A_star_rail%29+trailblazer_%28honkai%3A_star_rail%29
Ok but how are they the victims from the ML discourse? I don't get it.
Their content creators are trying to tell the hoyodrones that ML is bad, so the drones attack the nearest ML fanbase
Spicy = porn
Immortal = gay
Spicy Immortal = coomer
Spicy Immortal is not ML, but their opponents are trying to group them as one
>Spicy Immortal is not ML, but their opponents are trying to group them as one
And its certainly working, i didn't even know they were a separate group.
Shouldn't you exclude the female mc for non pufferfish purposes
Isn't Firefly the next datamined banner? Surprised that HSR is going with 3 female banners now with minimal feminist chimpout on CN.
Will the civil war break the Oyohim?
Some CN "leeks" running around.
They came to him in a dream.
You be the judge.
Knowing manjuu this is not too unbelievable. But honestly this kinda worries me, its a necessary evil to have some kind of aggressi ve monetization for a game of this scope, at least i hope they have set a flex mechanism for whaling hard so the whales can feel satisfied with their spending.
Big if true. Also, no need to pay for extra kibo space like dock space in azur lane? This game would be very good for free players and dolphins.
At worst there's kibo storage but they will give away some through the years so you don't feel the constraints as day 1 player, exactly like AL. Battle pass with some cosmetic, hatching time, hatching storage and decorations for your house could be the money anchor, also exactly like AL.
That sounds plausible. I am now expecting seasonal kibos and kibo skins similar to the ones in pokemon go and pokemon unite.
If this is real then people will heavily praise the shit out of this simply because no weapon gacha as everything is farmable ingame. This might mean however that character dupes could be even stronger or more vital to certain character kits so that whales have a reason to whale still.
Glad to see they are adding dungeons as well, was worried the game would entirely be just the singleplayer overworld but there is a multiplayer aspect with other players at least.
As much as i hate weapon banners i wouldn't be opposed to them if there's a f2p alternative to obtaining them without bonuses that you can only get from gacha copies.
why? because grinding is fricking boring and much more with random rng stat upgrades. Banners are instant gratification for the rich people that want to show off.
So you give F2P a smaller gap to P2W players while not completely locking them out and you keep the whales happy by giving them a bigger stick on carrot to chase and show off later.
ML is translated as Spicy Immortals by the MTL, idk, i found it funny.

New thread?
patience
>page 10
should be alright.
How much are the people on Chinese forums bringing up the idea of changing feMC to the male MC's sister? I hope that's not just an idea in this thread and that it's really being suggested as an alternative over there too.
Making her a party member and solidifying the malePC as the only playable character to represent (You) is a very popular sentiment. Good chance that happens. The semantics of it is anyone's guess.
That's good to hear, let's hope Manjuu makes the right decision with this.
I'd like to believe that, but somehow I doubt it. No way it isn't just a tiny minority. Good things don't happen.
This argument has been brought up multiple times in this and the past thread.
No, the issue that you want to modify a game so you get on Ganker where everyone else is also allowed to be including the mentally ill but make it your safe space without yuri-yaoi-shipping etc.
Its just not going to happen, now /vg/ is more unusable than ever in any moderately big general.
And if its not any of these three types of shitposting its going to be cuck-trash, etc shitposting as there's more resistance displayed by the community.
Maybe you should give up on /vg/ instead of trying to change the profit range of a game you are already interested on because of a key characteristic that has been promised.
>you want to modify a game
best you can do is to hog as much people as possible to scream loud in the survey when the public test drops.
>Its just not going to happen
vmg counterpart of many loudmouthed generals prove otherwise though.
>trying to change the profit range
no i won't.
>vmg counterpart of many loudmouthed generals prove otherwise though.
That just proves that you don't need to make a game extremely focused on a pandering angle to have a decent community of people as long as its gatekept, you can't gatekeep schizophrenia on /vg/ just by calling names.
I want the end product to be exactly what i expected from manjuu.
/vg/ can be as rabid as it usually is. I'll try not to care.
Not him but if you were familiar with Manjuu products, you would know many of what they offer are very much focused on the CGDCT aspect, from promotional material, anime, artbook, manga, etc, almost all AL derived products are shipgirls having fun larping as human botes. The fact that they are releasing a new game with a choice of gender for the protagonist is further proof of that.
It is only one aspect of Manjuu of course, but it's still undeniable that it is part of their DNA.
In the end, you can simply chose MaleC, and you will have exactly what you expect from the game, at the same time people interested in the CGDCT aspect will chose the FemC and have what they want, and in the middle, the vast majority of people who don't care either way will just chose whatever they feel like. What's going to be the most popular choice is anyone guess, but I can already tell there'll be more people picking FemC than there are people complaining about her. By all metrics female avatar are very popular in online game, so good luck trying to get her removed.
>/vg/ can be as rabid as it usually is. I'll try not to care.
You obviously do care, you wouldn't think of changing the game otherwise. You are hoping Manjuu will dump some of the work they put into it, not because you want the game to cater to YOU more, but because you want the game to cater to OTHER less. That is not the action of someone who "try not to care.".
All I hope is that once the game release, and most come to term with the fact that the game has both a MaleC and a FemC option, the shitflinging contest will stop. But I know that's wishful thinking.
>promotional material
Yeah that boob pad was very cgdct. I don't remember other sanitized stuffs having good reception.
>You obviously do care
It's inevitable, but I'll TRY not to. Do i need to repeat that?
Yes i want the game to cater to me more.
Yes i want the game to cater less to normalgays.
Yes i want the company to go under if they do otherwise.
Thanks for confirming.
>Yeah that boob pad was very cgdct.
Second season of Bisoku Zenshin is in production and it's peak CGDCT. I did not say every single products is this way, of course the figures and mousepads are not like that, how could they possibly be?
I'm not gonna try to convince you of anything, I don't want Manjuu to go under since I'm having a good time with AL, and what they showed from AP seem promising so far.
>Im having a good time with AL
Kek. Way to out yourself as a sunk cost, anon.
I was expecting AL2 or something similar until they came up with genslop instead. This issue even predates the whole MC situations.
So yeah, i'm not convinced. They frick this one up, they get what they deserved.
I'm not reading all of this reply to my post, but I appreciate you taking the time to type it.
That'd be the optimal play. Yuri fans will always be present in an anime game with females interacting with females. No stopping that so there's no point in trying to fully bar anything. It's feeding them that's the problem. Like gremlins after midnight.
Isn't it kind of pointless on the argument of "I'd rather stare to female ass" since you'll be playing playable female character you got later anyway, just lock the MC to male and give the FemMC as free unit. I don't understand why is this an issue.
Because they never played Rune Factory or Fire Emblem and don't know what inevitably happens once a company adds female MC and listens to women. I'd rather look at a man during cutscenes if it means the company will pander to me.
>I don't understand why is this an issue.
You are the one who want to change the game Black person, are you moronic? You don't get to pretend you are holding a reasonable viewpoint while asking unreasonable things.
What game? There is no game. The game isn't even released.
Exactly, we have no stake in this, not you, and not me. I'm here because so far, I like what I see. If you don't like what you see, leave. It's very simple.
Now don't try to mindfrick me and pretend you're only here because you are bored, we both know that's not the case.
Touch grass.
Nice argument.
Good talk.
I wish all morons exposed their complete lack of braincells as fast as you did.
nta but you sound mindbroken
And if things turn out well for harembros, you're going to walk away and enjoy yuri games and totally not spend a decade of your life shitposting and seething about it on a mongolian basket weaving fourm. Right?
post the naem of all the haremgames that have seething yurigays in their threads.
Who is playable is a dumb argument because like you said after the first hour you won't be using the main characters anymore. The only thing that matters is that there is only one the male shown in all story scenes to solidify that he is the main character and all females are for him.
>Isn't it kind of pointless on the argument of "I'd rather stare to female ass" since you'll be playing playable female character you got later anyway, just lock the MC to male and give the FemMC as free unit.
This is just such a funny post, it plays on itself. You know you are going to be directly controlling a female character sooner or later, so why exactly is the female MC a problem?
Do you just assume the identity of the gacha characters later because you're playing them?
It just boils don't to people are tired of yuri and yurigays playing other gachas like gbf and hsr/genshin I am personally tired of MCwar homosexualry along with the fact that the female option is redundant in a bishoujo game targeting males in the first place as a good portion of the female audience(at least here in the west) refuse to play games without playable men but even withouth them you still get moronic yuriBlack folk along with mcwars. This is why I am more hyped for Nornium than this game, if the chinks win out cool, if they don't then I'll probably move on

>Why yes and theres nothing wrong with it, theres a reason why manga is seperated by target demograpic tags like BL.
Damn, a legitimately moronic poster, should I have expected anything else?
Manga have literally the same issue as what you're b***hing about, you're doing the same as whining that Sasuke x Naruto shippers exist, even though Naruto is a shounen. Most people just ignore the people that like things they don't.
Shounens don't bow down to fujos like omnipandering gachas do which is why most people ignore it.
You are speaking absolute nonsense. Some authors do bow down to fujos or whatever other group you hate, in fact, it's a lot easier for that to happen, since artists depend on the manga doing well for their livelihood, so if one thing looks to be popular on their work, they will try to appeal to those fans, while something like the omnipandering gacha you're delusional about is a whole project with hundreds of people on the staff, and are far less likely to make lasting decisions as "bowing down" to a fanbase without planning around it.
Some authors do bow down to fujos
k
It's quite the complete opposite as there are far more examples of fujo bullshit in omnigachas than in popular battle shounen manga.
You don't have an example of "fujo bullshit" even in the gacha games you're b***hing about, most likely. You are probably considering those male characters from Mihoyo games, which literally none of them are confirmed homosexuals, as "fujo bullshit", that's the level of mental damage you have already suffered from the fanbases that live rent free on your head.
GBF has Sandalphon and lucifer, FGO just got Iori and Yamato.
Feel free to show me canon proof that either of those two pairs have an actual homosexual, and you aren't just letting a bunch of woman on twitter brand your image of those characters as something else.
Image limit is reached go as /gbfg/ or /fgo/ for proof and they will happily oblige
I play gbf and I conclusively know that Sandalphon and Lucifer aren't gay, it's a mentor figure kind of deal, very obvious to anyone that isn't deranged. Wouldn't know about FGO.
Then you would know that they keep baiting his fujo audience and every event he is in along with continuing baiting with Vane and Lancelot which is not to mention all of the yuri bullshit in the game like Vira/Meg/Cupitan.
My brother in Christ, GBF homoknights, luci sandal pandering is for Otomes, these characters get for (You) (Djeeta) lines for their valentines/white day events.
>luci sandal pandering is for Otomes
That would be for fujos my guy even then I find the yuri to be more offensive as fujos tend to stick and their own lane and whatever they do isn't effecting the girls.
>I find the yuri to be more offensive as fujos tend to stick and their own lane and whatever they do isn't effecting the girls.
Glad we got to the heart of the issue. At the end of the day, it's just "there is a fanbase that uses the girls that I like for something I don't like and it's making me mad".
I don't know what to say, at the end of the day, neither fanbases exactly like the thing the other does, so you're just being the weak link if you need the other deleted to be able to enjoy your side. For those gacha companies, you speak with your wallet, and as far as that goes, we know who's winning.
>we know who's winning
Most pure yuri games tend to EoS
We are directly talking about "omnipandering" games, I just genuinely believe you people really don't want to just bow out of the competition in those. And most gacha games tend to EoS, it's a competitive scene and the ones that doesn't immediately get a following will drown.
Well Vira went from one of the most popular girls in gbf to mid to low tier after they stopped baiting and switching and went full yuri.
I think your views of Vira are subjective as the whole idea that they were doing "bait and switch" with her is ultimately down to head canon just like Sandal/Lucifer being gay, and there's no study as to when exactly did her popularity start to wane.
What other reason would there for the decline? Naru is just as popular as she has always been but her fanbase wasn't as divided as Vira's.
>since we don't know the reason, it must be the one I think of
People could simply think of her character as stale, which she was. And I'd wager the people actually invested in her ship would be getting tired of waiting as well, since Katalina literally died before she got anywhere with her.
The shippers won with both the Ares plot point and Vira's grand 5* uncap, and Nier is basically close to where she was despite being a yandere.
I really don't know how they're winning when Katalina fricking died before Vira did any actual progress.
Vira's popularity dropped way before the last story update.
And their relationship didn't progress at all, including after the Ares plot point. Katalina didn't show real romantic interest in Vira at any point of the game's history.
While that is true they where also baiting Vira with the player in several of her alts, hence why I said her fanbase was split because Vira already made her choice with her 5* and the Ares star cross lovers thing further embolden it.
>baiting Vira with the player in several of her alts
Like I said, head canon. Vira's popularity absolutely was already going down before the very late "star crossed lover" point, as well. Maybe for better or worse, the waifugays that deluded themselves in believing Vira was falling for them, realized it wasn't really that a lot earlier than that, maybe the shippers that actually wanted to see Katalina/Vira happen gave up after nearly 10 years of nothing, we don't know.
Doesn't matter the writers will do whatever the hell they want regardless of what the playerbase wants i.e fgo and the heian characters.
fgo has been absolute trash since day 1 and we all know it has only been doing well because fate fans have become a cult.
Good thing Promilia won't be a pure yuri game either.
It's full of bi-bawds
Hot
You can upload to catbox you know?
https://files.catbox.moe/g6ug7n.jpg
You are being purposefully dishonest here, Sandalphon looked up at Lucifer as his mentor.
Canon yuri is far more common than canon yaoi.
And far, far more popular, even anime and games with yuri undertones and specially with yuribait and switch more than overt yuri are massively popular.
Nice deflection moron, personally i don't mind if the game panders hard to the male mc or not, we won't know that yet, its not an impossibility because of the fem mc either, what's funny is all this schizophrenia that is unfolding because other men want to look at the story through the fem mc, i still like Promilia for how it looks and the cute girls they presented.
But most males rather play as a girl than another male and don't want to watch all the hot girls be with another man
Then roll one the hundred of 5* females that you with play with anyways.
And if you want to so badly play as a male character you can just play any of the other gacha games with male characters
This game already has a male MC if you didn't notice
90%+ of the people will pick female
Not if the chinks have anything to say about it.
80% of the chinks will pick female.
Lmao still coping
Why would they make a whole new game just to pander to the same demographic?
Its obvious what their intention with AP is, it looks very Japanese with fantasy races and aesthetic that Japan loves.
It will have very for (You) characters, and that means the fem mc either, it will become a cultural phenomenon with borderline yuri.
They clearly don't care about the extreme harem gays, who are a minority anyways, most people that are happy with AP already are so because its female only.
>morons still taking the bait
some things never change
>having moronic opinions = baiting
This one is a certified classic.
Hoyotrannies keep coming here to bait. They must be really scared of this game.
I think it's pretty sad to have hoyodrones living rent-free in your head like that, and even worse to have delusional expectations of any game release like it's going to dethrone them. They made a shitty ass turn based RPG with bland mechanics and it's still making a hundred millions a month.
That's a pretty neat greentext story.
Answer this then
Lock the male MC. The heroine is changed to be the male MC's mount.
I hope they remove the male MC
The fem mc will be my kibo breeder
Han Youyou will be mega for (You) i can tell by her design alone.
>already thinking of collabs
heh
Why the frick did you seethe. I'm merely pointing out locking MC to male and FemMC to be free unit is a way for these dumb arguments to end, haremgay get their pandering, and the ass-staring gay still get their girls. What Yuritroon? They're inherently cuck anyway, it doesn't matter if there's male in it.
They should remove the male MC so all self-insert cucks go away
New trailer
There's a palworld-like assembly line lmao
This was posted the same day the other videos were on bilibili but nobody uploaded it to youtube until now.
I just remembered something, if you are sour from all these pitch black panties and spats in the promo materials, let me remind you that Chinese social media sites have stricter censorship regulations than in-game ones in china.
As an example: https://m.weibo.cn/detail/5016626055351995 is how they post reveals on weibo for AL while in game its completely uncensored, that includes videos.
So there's the chance that we in fact get panties in the final versions of AP.
Whenever they do this it's always just the in-game stuff covered up with stickers or other characters or smoke clouds and shit. The actual image isn't altered. Not just Manjuu, but any CN media post. I do not believe they'd go out of their way to create separate censored 3D models just for trailers and teasers.
The spats are flat textures stappled into the model, you change these in two clicks
Again, I don't think they bothered to do anything just for the teaser/trailer. Mods will fix it, but the vanilla experience is keeping them.
>CGDCT
Its CBDCT*
Personally I think a few characters look a bit generic and bland.
Reminds me of those background characters in those isekai anime. They dress well but the moment they walk off screen you kinda forget the design.
A little disappointed consider it's from the azure lane dev who makes really nice art.
Am I the only one?
You might have been influenced by mihoyo as well with their designs over saturated with ornaments, dangling trinkets and cloth layers on top of each other.
After playing Unicorn Overlord, the aesthetic is really refreshing. I'm tired of chinkslop with 100 layer of useless swaying fabric on their bodies, give us medieval armor.
But I play Azur Lane
Then you are influenced by the glow up of splash art because AL designs are not even close to saturated in flair compared to Mihoyo's design philosophy.
>Mihoyo out of nowhere
Never played them
You forgot the open back/armpits
Also they seem to really hate making straight and long-haired characters. It's either hair that splits open in the middle or that stupid ponytail-like dangling hair
I can forego designs as long as they're uncensored. Interactions, however...
Don't get your hopes up, dishwasher is the lead art director. dude only knows how to draw naked women, he's a hack.
>dishwasher is the lead art director
nta
Woah what. I'm playing your game
He's bullshitting you
Why are you lying it's a fact.
There's no dishwasher design on any of the art we have seen so far. Soaryuna is the lead artist.
Soaryuna is Shinano's artist and a woman herself BTW so male lockers should probably stop coping for the sake of their own sanity.
>a woman herself BTW
That is irrelevant as the artist has no say on whatever the board decides like no playable males besides the MC.
Your existence is generic.
Just because the design isn't glamorous like vtuber or HSR design, it doesn't mean that it's bland.
It's a good and simple design.
And shut the frick up about AL2. Only moron or doomposter want it.
>corporate slurper #1005384 reporting for duty!!!
Have they confirmed that they are scrapping the male MC yet?
It would be funny if they went that route
I can confrim that they are scrapping your butthole.
They literally just used her in the new trailer
. If anything, they are removing the male MC, he hasn't been seen in any trailer so far.
>anon asks if they're removing the male mc
>so mindbroken responds as if they were talking about the female MC
Whoa. MC Wars are gonna be big.
Thankfully there will be no mc wars because there will only be a male mc
that moron even lies saying the trailer is new when in fact it was already out in bilibili like this anon here said
It was new to us morono ricardo.
>It was new to us
Only if you are a moron who can't use use the chink site, still doesn't change the fact that the trailer is old btw
Cool don't care, not sure why you are pmsing about.
cared enough to respond when you could have ignored my comment, homosexual
Again I ask why are you pmsing? Calm down Black person it's just a video.
>still responding
Looks like you care a lot homosexual
Grats on the digits bro.
Bro what the FRICK my narrative
>the girls are the star of show front and center
As it should be. Still going to be malePC only, btw.
Reminder that if a game doesn't have explicit penis in butthole homosexual sex scenes there is no fujo pandering and it is all in your heads.
>no male Mc
Didn't they release an image that showed male and female Mc?
Also, why is this so controversial? Isn't this pretty normal in a anime game? Lost of JRPG (CRPG in this case I guess) have them.
Like, does it matter what some people think their head cannons are on twitter? Just ignore them.
If a female MC exists she will be cucking waifus from my self insert
China has anti-homosexual laws so if female MC exists it automatically means there will be zero (You) pandering
new bread doko?!
Honestly feel like we should wait for something to happen first. There's nothing left to argue about and I'm tired of the yurigays crying in endless circles.
Now i realize that NGA is an anonymous forum, no wonder all the discussion there is everyone accusing each other of being yuriBlack folk lol
Absolute schizophrenia.
Lock the male MC and change him into a camera from the player's perspective. The female MC is changed into the helicopter carrying the camera.

In the CN Arknights chapter released yesterday, Doctor (the player character) is revealed to be male. Female players are not happy.
They already changed that, moron.
And the doctor is not a self-insert, it's a character of his own with a character, personality and more.
So arknights is more of a cuck game.
>And the doctor is not a self-insert, it's a character of his own with a character, personality and more.
Let's not kid ourselves here, xe's always been a self-insert for troons.
How fast was that changed?
Within a day
wow and when did this story update drop?
never mind
Has quickly been changed due to women complaints. This is why it's important to not pander to women.
HG is too late to want a part of the harem demographic pie
I already assumed Doctor was a guy just from the fact that Kaltsit (or whatever her name is) is his ex-wife.
>he fell for schizo headcanon
All gacha main characters are male, they just started hiding them behind masks and using troony pronouns in the last few years because they wanted to catch some fujo bucks.
Genderfluid knights
>a good example of why you need to start with and stick with male only MC
It is SO over
I don't see the point, it's literally the same audience as Genshin
What the frick are you people still monitoring this thread for
It's been three weeks and close to a month since Manjuu released the trailer. I keep checking my email and AP discussion threads I can find. I can't wait for any news at this moment.
GIVE ME NEWS MANJUU!!!!!!
>I keep checking my email
what are you expecting to find on your e-mail?
Update for preregistration.
there is literally nothing else in the gacha space worth looking at right now
natlan is going to be a filler region in genshin
tof is dead
zzz, wuwa and enfield are all gonna be trash
and no i dont play png collectors
ambiguous MC is arguably worse than selectable gender MC though
I'm gonna bake in a few hours.
Negative.
i didn't ask you for permission either.
Black person
Where's NEWS!?!?
