BARRY ARE YOU OKAY
You cuckchannelers and your disgusting template shit need to have a nice day.
ARE YOU OK BARRY?
Kinda like that velma tv show you at some point gotta wonder are people making shitty design decisions on purpose because they despise their directives?
>oh I gotta make it diverse, ok. Frick you
>wonder are people making shitty design decisions on purpose
They are. Americans are obsessed with being "represented", and that includes their ugliness. Beauty commercials are nothing but wrinkly hags and fat people now
>3/10 without the playstation console exclusive bonus and the Black person bonus
Barry’s going to ACK soon
>This new Luminous Studios game...
>It's Not Good.
cuckthony cucktano
the demo was horrendous so i'm surprised anyone is giving it above a 6/10.
How can they give it a 7, yet not recommend it?
I read it as them saying "the game isn't bad, but it didn't do anything good enough for me to tell you to go out and buy it."
If a game you claim to be 7/10, which is an average score, isnt good enough to play, then i highly doubt its a 7/10 game.
>7/10, which is an average score
Why are gamers moronic?
Good enough to play and not have an awful time doesn't make something worth recommending.
>7 out of 10 is AVERAGE
why can't math into mutt?
Under 5 is when the game is non playable
Over 5 is when the game is at least somewhat finished
Because it costs $100, a 7/10 is not worth that much money, no game is
>implying the reviewers give a shit about the cost
People shilled diablo immortal without once mentioning the cost of it not that i disagree with you
It doesnt cost $100 you fricking moron that's the collector or some shit, you can shit on this shit game that even journos agree it's not good without lying out of your teeth now
You're right, I actually have to pay more than $100 for the deluxe edition due to regional pricing lmao
it costs 80 euro base game
Its not $100, but close enough, at least for us eu bros. I really hope no one gave money to SE for this garbage, especially at that price
what's that in non third world currency
80€
Around 12200 ISK
114.95 Australian dollars
>lying out of your teeth now
Learn english Jan Potatowicz
The game is fricking 95 Leaf bucks on Steam. That is just the normal edition.
>Leaf bucks
It costs $100 for me in upside down land.
7 equals to "Only play it if you love the genre and there is nothing better that interests you"
How rating games should be
>0 dont buy it
>3 stay away from it
>5 mediocre
>7 its good and recommended
> perfect. A must play
How it is
>0 trash
>1 trash
>2 trash
>3 trash
>4 trash
>5 trash
>6 dont buy it
>7 stay away from it
>8 mediocre
>9 its good and recommended
>9.(something) perfect. A must play
>10 never given
At this point the recommendation score is far more accurate than whatever arbitrary score these fricks give.
Eh, 7 to me is still enjoyable. 6 and below I'd give to games that have game breaking bugs, lower jf it is outright unplayable.
I agree, I'd actually like to play this game, not for the price they are asking currently though lmao
>9 its good and recommended
>9.(something) perfect. A must play
>10 never given
More like
>9 just okay
>9.(something) just okay
>10 varies wildly between just okay and good
Because the review score itself means nothing. Every mainstream outlet gives mediocre games a six or seven out of ten regardless of quality. Journos know that if they gave out lower ratings the publishers would pull advertising from the site. That's why we're stuck with generations of gamers who think a 7/10 game is average.
A 7/10 is a passing grade in school. That means the game turns on, and plays, but the journo didn't find it thrilling.
In vidya journalism a 7 is basically a 3.
5/10 is actually 0/5
so 7 is a 2/5
>How can they give it a 7, yet not recommend it?
Games have unironically gone through score inflation in the past 10 years. Games that got 5/10s and 6/10s in the past would probably get 7/10 and 8/10 respectively by today's standard because both 7s and 8s have come so common today that they're basically the new average.
It's kind of like how people today overuse the term "masterpiece" to describe anything today that's not painfully average. It's lost it's meaning entirely.
because they'd be called racist if they gave it anything less
I also dont recomend 7/10 games to others.
Do i think dmc5 was 7/10? I mean yes, the first half was trash, but then you got to play dante and with skipping all cutscenes the game got somewhat enjoyable.
But does that mean i go out of my way to recomend it to others? No.
I can recommend a 7/10 if it's less than $20. But never at full price.
Because we're spoilt for choice with plenty of other options in the 8, 9, and 10 range.
7's okay, you'll have fun with it - but why bother when there's better games out there?
>How can they give it a 7, yet not recommend it?
Why would they recommend it? If you have limited time, why would not use that time to play games which are >7 ? The market is saturated with alot of GOOD games, why recommend people to play mediocre ones?
Maybe from a technical standpoint, the game works fine. Barely any graphical glitch and the magic effect, while overblown and can obstruct your vision, looks fricking amazing. But the rest is either just meh or plain bad or other games have made something similar but they offer a better package than Forspoken.
Reviews just follow the numerical school grading system used in many countries.
4 and below is not "bad game", it's "you failed to make a video game". 7 is average, not bad but also not good, acceptable but totally unremarkable.
Californian tier RPG
I really want to see those empowered nonbinary writers giving all they learned in college
Ruh roh
Where's Barry!?!
BARRRRRRRYYYYYYY
>gamingtrend: 90/100

oh...

Not very subtle, Kojima.
FF XVI WON BARRY FF XVI IS GOING TO RAM IT IN YOUR ASS
this is BEFORE all the snubbed reviewers who didnt get codes
they havent even gotten the game yet to review, so expect some salty ass mother frickers sabotaging that score even more lol
>luminous productions
>the aim of the company is to create new AAA video games for a global audience using Square Enix's proprietary Luminous Engine.[5][6]
>global audience
>californian playstation
Top kek! I hope they sink and take Square with them.
They probably will
surprising no one
OK THE GAME IS OUT
NOW PLEASE JUST FOCUS ON FF XVI AND REBIRTH
>3/10 once you subtract the Black person bonus
Will this be the one to finally push Barry over the edge?
I'm expecting he'll stay around until XVI releases. If that game turns out to be good, he'll keel over
>barry ever kneeling
Never, hes stubborn as a rock
who could have predicted that
WAOW WHAT A SURPRISING RESULT!!!!!!
WHAT A SHOCKER
WHO COULD HAVE GUESSED
wha happun
They couldn't rely on the remnants of nomura chuuni like they did with XV.
XV is a good game, forspoken isn't
>XV is a good game
Your criticisms of xv are completely invalid
FFXV, despite all of other of it's well documented flaws, is still a decent game in the end of the day. Forspoken is not.
The power of the cis white male
>white people hate it
Good, it wasn't for them anyway.
Thanks Brie Larson
The gameplay and traversal look good, but the Marvel tier writing and brought it down so much.
If they stuck with the Agni's Philosophy concept, it would've probably been great.
With the amount of threads popping up you'd think this game was popular
All these scores are generous, theres no way its above a 5. the whole game has already leaked
>It's going down on Metacritic
Oh no Forspokenbros...
just got a 96 LOL
what the frick is this dumbass doing, probably a virtue signal
>* The product in this article was sent to us by the developer/company.
Lol, lmao even.
frick, now we're going to have to deal with years of contrarians insisting the game is a misunderstood masterpiece.
Big titty italian reviewer is saying that the game is decent
have a nice day buddy
>this
>big
>tranime
Goddamn, I wanna eat pancakes offa that!
Also lol get fricked Square. How much money do you think they lost on this shit?
dude they lose money on literally every game. If it weren't for their mobile/gacha shit and FFXIV propping them up they'd have gone bankrupt years ago
square enix and sega both should have been dead companies by 2001. but they lived somehow.
I was gonna say builders 2 must have made them a good bit of dough but holy shit 2018
God I know a girl with this look she's fricking perfect. Shame she told me she's getting a reduction. It affects her run times.
>woman having an opinion
lmao
Oh wait, you might be serious
le opinioni delle donne contano 0

3DPD is so gross to look at

>Big titty
I have more breasts as a fat man.
Another Gankerictory in that they called it
Gender bend of that one Ratatouille Food reviewer
Doesn't the PS5 basically have a 2000s Nvidia series in it? its already outdated at this point, its no wonder the games are hardly looking better than last gen.
>even has the same file name
jesus christ The barry gayging is real
So you say it's shit and I should avoid it? Thanks.
The Verge's review is the funniest because it's totally out of lockstep with the common consensus: they love the story and hates the gameplay. What a fricking rag, lol.
they want movie games that play themselves
Verge shouldn't even be on metacritic. They don't have a single writer who knows anything about games.
ouch
>Eurogamer's review wasn't counted yet
>put out a video absolutely thrashing it.
holy frick
Eurogame stopped giving their reviews number scores a while ago, now it's just
>Essential
>Recommended
>No Label
>Avoid
jesus
At least these guys take price into account.
>Frey communicates that she has trust issues by saying "I have trust issues"
Quality writing
Not a bad sign of writing necessarily but Flopspoken doesn't have more to that statement. She has trust issues because she has trust issues she tells that to random strangers because the audience needs to know
>even no view ultrashill corpoleft media is shitting on it
Jesus, did the cheques bounce?
>there are no walk and talk segments
>it's a bad thing
I hate modern gaymers so much.
The point is that the walk and talk segments are replaced with shitty cutscenes that you have to sit and watch, its a video game not a movie.
But it's the same shit. You just have to push you thumbstick for 2 minutes. No gameplay advantages whatsoever.
Walk and talk segments are still shitty cutscenes you have to sit and watch. You're far more likely to be allowed to just skip an outright cutscene than you are a walky talky bit, which makes them objectively superior.
>black women captured by white guys and called a monster was very problematic
sorry lads, square enix have now bought my trust and i'm getting 3 copies
>REEE why is there no walk and talk segments like all my favorite movie games!?
>YIKES the writing team was full white writing a Black woman, that is problematic!
The game is shit, but what the frick are these complaints?
Gotta minmax them brownie points even if the review is shitting on a game created exclusively for brownie points farming. It's the current meta and these people live and die for their precious social media scores like they are trying to get the top 1 score in some beat'em'up about big lizards and cool cars at their local arcade.
But it IS funny how the "thank you black girl gamers" game starts with a black girl going to jail.
Well, Jupiter Ascending the game turned out to be shit
>walk and talks are a good thing actually
>we should all bow down and listen to our Black person overlords!
Kill all gaming journos
>yeah those are good points
>UH ALL THE WRITERS ARE WHITE HOW CAN THEY KNOW THE STRUGGLE?? WE JUST CANT UNDERSTAND
oh jeez really ambushed me with that one
>WTF why are there no more black representation in video games?
>WTF why are WHITE people writing black people in video games?
There's no winning here
there is a winning move
it's ignoring the vocal minority that doesn't spend a penny on your fricking video games
thinking people have to literally be the thing they're writing or acting is the death of creativity. people really dont know what they're asking for.
BARRY CLOSE YOUR EYES!!
Is this an actual woman? >her voice is kinda sus
>1 minute in
>"cutscenes are bad"
[turned off]
shit review
>can't talk and walk at the same time
kek
imagine if this happened in dragon dogma and you couldn't walk when the pawns talk
>the entire party stops moving every time a pawn sees a wolf
That's some frickin cursed shit. I almost want to see it as a mod for DD1.
A trip to gran soren would take hours

Good, I fricking his posts, he makes his skin and sexuality his entire personality.
Isn't he a white straight guy?
>there're three games worse than Balan Wonderworld
How?
diversity analyst
>Diversity Analyst
How desperate are some homosexuals to defend [GROUP] to the point of making this shit up.
>there are people making money as diversity analysts while you are her beggin for someone to put a coin in yer hat
At least you didn't sell your soul, anon, be proud
the frick is a diversity analyst
what
he looks at a project and goes "needs moar blck people, homosexuals, trannies n shieeet"
No, he just says it needs more black people. Regardless of the game. And then he writes long-winded drivel that the game is rooted in anti-blackness because he doesn’t think there are enough black characters.
It's when you hire someone based on their race to unironically campaign for id pol in whatever game your making, so instead of having an interesting fun story it revolves around black race politics or whatever id pol the diversity analyst wants, all non-white.
Google the book "bullshit jobs" and apply it to minorities and men in drag.
Apologize
Damn se ONLY release shit game what happend
never shittalked NEO
Why would I? I loved these two.
neo twewy is kino tho
I have nothing to apologize for. Games like NEO TWEWY, Strangers of Paradise, and Triangle Strategy are the bright spots of current Squeenix.
>anti-chaos game is chaos store exclusive
steam release when?
Beg harder
It'll be released this March.
Good morning, sir!
>sony paid money to keep this game console exclusive
What? Its not console exclusive?
Their black gorilla audience will eat this shit up though
I doubt Square will port it to Xbox 2 years later at this point.
we all had the demo for free moron. Black folk dont matter when your game is dog shit to begin with
cant wait for idris elba in cyberpunk gonna be great love him in movies
the demo legitimately plays like shit. its not fun gameplay wise at all.
You didn't play it. Just just keep saying the game is shit without any details.
Did you miss the part where they mentioned the gameplay was bad?
But barry told me Black personman simulator would be kino... what happened
stop watching childrens cartoons homosexual. the game is shit, maybe watch or play it. have a nice day
>The game is shit
>Doesn't get into details
Frick off /misc/. You ruined this site with your b***hing. Kys
did you miss the part where they didn't want it reviewed because its shit, and the reviews are all shit? again, you need to have a nice day and stop watching children cartoons.
>Forspoken is absolutely ass
>FFXVI ends up being the best JRPG to ever exist
Would Barry just kill himself at that point?
For the sake of discussion, I kind of hope so, but it would be hilarious to see people legitimately discussing FF16, when it comes out, while Barry keeps spamming shit in the threads.
Nah, it would be funnier if he got in trouble with the law because of it and we got to see his seething mugshot
>Yoshi P as director
>Devil May Cry dude for action design
>Traditional Final Fantasy aesthetic and setting (no Nomura involved).
>MC looks like an actual adult
It has the makings of being pretty good from the little we know.
>Yoshi P as director
He's not directing
>Traditional Final Fantasy aesthetic and setting
Its more like Tactics than traditional FF.
There is also the fact that the game has technically been done for quite a while, and they're just spending lots of time just going over things to ensure that everything is right.
Game shouldn't have any major bugs or technical issues.
>game has Black person mc
>it's shit
classic
I'm happy it's going to flop, it's gonna be on sale sooner and the gameplay looks kinda fun so I wouldn't mind dropping $20 on it
the gameplay isn't fun. its spammy and really lackluster. feels worse than an action game that came out like 15 years ago.
I'm not even waiting for a sale it'll be free on PS Plus in like 3 months
And that's despite the woke bonus looool
Bros how can so many of the reviewers outright say the protag is utterly unlikable without getting canceled
>forspoken is sh-ACK!
this reads like its straight out of some female 'gaymers' reddit blogpost
why the frick would Square do some homosexual shit like this? is this the western branch of square or something?
regardless, i hope once this game flops they will steer clear of this woke diversity bullshit from now on
>95% of the cutscenes are in-game, which is ambitious
Hasn't this been largely standard since the PS2 era?
>after game events, aka new game plus
>this is the best ng+ I've ever experienced
It's a minor point but I feel a review should really elaborate on stuff like this, if x is the best y you've ever seen in a game, tell me why, just calling it good is worthless.
IT'S OVER IT'S OVER IT'S OVER
HOLY FRICK PUT BARRY ON SUCIDE WATCH RIGHT NOW
Im sorry my game sucks anon...
Don't worry ma'am there is always OF
damn, she got done dirty
But Twitter told be they'd prefer a game like this??? Wha happun.
Curious if Nomura or any other noteworthy squeenix people had input on the game.
Any info on this
Doesn't seem like it
What the frick why so many American names? I thought square was in Japan?
They are. But they hired Western Writers to write the game and a few western devs to work on the Open World.
>5 writers
>The story still sucks
Expain this
>I have to get MY material in, even if it jars with what everyone else wrote
Many such cases.
I explained yesterday, so I'll give a short version.
Whitta and Henning only did the original story concepts of the game. Thank GRR and Elden Ring.
Then two other writers (one of them being an actor), with barely any writing experience between the two of them, wrote the story and script. The last writer wasn't really credited with anything important.
What you get is a contender for Worst game of the year.
With how old Hennig is, it would really suck if this ended up being her swan song. I loved legacy of kain.
Not really. I skimmed through the credits yesterday. Most of the team is just former XV devs (obviously) and a surprisingly a good number of knack devs for some reason.
The game is a pet project of the company's president
nft guy
>The game is a pet project of the company's president
If you mean Tabata he left the company back in 2018
No
Yosuke matsuda
The actual president, he took charge of luminous
>The game is a pet project of the company's president
>nft guy
This guy is cooking
Hopefully this'll convince Square that westoids and their political ideals aren't worth investing money in too.
They have no choice but to bow to progressive ideals because progressives control the flow of money, there's home grown progressives in japan now anyway just cutting off the outside won't stop the rot
Another Square Enix classic.
How many shit games can they pump out before they go bankrupt?
They'll survive as long as Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts keep selling well.
they aren't bankrupt yet because they're pulling the money and resources from their successful projects to stay afloat.
see all the money ffxiv makes and it goes to flops instead of making ffxiv better.
Damn, if I was a XIV player I'd be mad.
Yeah a lot of them are. It seems like SQ is getting desperate since they have the guy running the show on XIV and his team making FFXVI.
>SQ is getting desperate
I still can't wrap my head over the fact that they sold off their Eidos IPs and studios so they could invest in NFTs.
Imagine having upper management so inept they can't profit off Deus Ex and Tomb Raider.
Of course they wont say "we sold them because they are expensive and make no money"
Anybody that actually plays jrpgs knows SoP, diofield, and star ocean are all good. Once again, Nier also came out to yellow reviews dipshits, now it's considered actually good and a classic. It's ridiculous
Nier's story was always praised it's just the gameplay that sucked, did the remake improve that part?
And for the games I mentioned, they're literally praised for their gameplay but it's their stories that "sucked". The remake makes the combat feel a little like automata but still the same
100%. Both NieR and Drakengard are considered great for their stories, and came up short in just about every other area.
>did the remake improve that part?
Yes, they overhauled the combat for Replicant.
Star Ocean is good? God I got memed by the reviews, I'm gonna try it.
Yes. It's a pretty solid entry after the complete misfire of SO5 and the weird direction of SO4. Tri-ace is still likely fricked though.
It's good for a Star Ocean game yes, it's probably the best one since 3.
The game still has a bunch of issues especially on consoles. On a good PC with jp dub though, while not a masterpiece I really enjoyed it.
Diofield/SoP/Star Ocean are good.
>Various Daylife
Might actually be the dumbest game name since "Irritating Stick".
Various daylife makes sense with the concept of the game
Bravely default is the worst one
There are people that paid 69.99 USD plus tax for this lmao
This user just moved shit with his motherfricking mind
It has to be seriously shit if that's all they could give to a woke ESG game.
Going through
the main problems seem to be awful dialogue, an uninteresting world, bad gameplay and a general lack of polish. The story, enemy design and exploration are ok to good, but that doesn't make up for how bad the rest is.
How bad Forspoken could be if HI is considered very bad?
>NPR of all fricking sites gets a game review on Metacritic
>even they panned it
Good fricking lord this isn't even a "go woke go broke" situation, the game actually isn't even good
>Good fricking lord this isn't even a "go woke go broke" situation, the game actually isn't even good
No shit, Anon. The two statements you are making aren't mutually exclusive, and often come as a pair.
/v/troons seething forkspoken is doing great
It's fricking insane that it's still getting like 7/10, it looks like one of the worst pieces of shit I've seen in my lifetime
Flopspokensisters... We lost to Sonic Games....
SO BREAK THROUGH IT ALL
DON'T STOP; WE'RE ON A MISSION, OVERDRIVING ALL THE ESG COMPETITION
COUNTING UP FLOPSPOKEN'S DAMAGE WHEN ITS DONE
you know the game is shit when IGN pulls out the 6
You know its shit when the contrarians pull out 9.5 scores while others give it poor scores.
Yeah it's the equivalent of a 2/10.
>you know the game is shit when IGN pulls out the 6
that just means SE didn't give them enough money to buy them off
Well no because they gave rainworld 6.3. Fricking moron. Fricking spastic. Why bother posting when you're such an idiot? Fricking loser.
>Implying IGN treats AAA games and indies games the same
End your life you imbecile.
>It's because she's black isn't it.
Yes.
>That's why you hate it, I've never ONCE heard people talk about the gameplay. I've never seen any criticism of the open world or the magic or the combos or story.
I took the extra step of watching a gameplay trailer and it looked generic and stale as frick. Just run around in grass and spam particle effects. I don't want generic open world games. I hate them.
But yes, it's also because I'm sick and tired of Black folks. They are not a charming oddity anymore, they are a constant everpresent pest.
Bargain bin within the month.
my thoughts exactly. it looks like the game you find in the walmart bin next to other square enix classics like balan and kingdom hearts 3
>FFXV
>Now this
They just can't catch a break lol
Remember: Square picked and chose who got review codes, and they probably chose reviewers who would review it well.
The game is going to drop into the 50s once the sites that didn't get codes end up finishing it.
Will Barry ever stop losing?
>hand pick the reviewers for the game
>still only manage to land sub 70
It's pretty clear that SE ran damage control on this games reviews, I'm just wondering if SE paid some of the reviewers they chose while not paying the others to try and make it look like they weren't obviously paying off people.
Or it's the diversity points having some of these reviewers giving the game high marks.
>Or it's the diversity points having some of these reviewers giving the game high marks.
the highest review on metacritic comes from a black guy, so...
nobody reviewed the PC version so its safe to assume that its a dark souls 1 tier trainwreck.
The requirements are crazy, but who cares with this kinda metascore + 70€ price tag when everyones suffering from reduced disposable income.
Nobody has a PC code so I don't even want to know how that's going to play like.
Barry coping beyond control

I think the building is the same but that sewer entry replacement is completely different
please tell me this is not real
It is. Directly from a review.
Only giving codes to people who will be favourable sure worked out well for them.
I expect people who missed out will slam it.
I knew it. Let me guess. The game is boring with an empty open world, lag, pop in, bad story. Don't know why this was pushed as hard as it was.
You're b***hing about racist commentary on a board coated with loud morons, on a website actively making more fun of 'people' like you than the nignogs you think you're taking a bullet for, when it's just a small piece of a puzzle you can only bait about because it's all you know.
Look at the fricking state of (You).
>IGN - 6 / 10
whoa that's racist
Alright now how bad will pic related do?
It'll perform better than Forspoken but ultimately worse than XV. Maybe even 7R.
It will actually be amazi g
Not bad at all. I think the kind of lukewarm reception it has right now will lead to it having very positive word of mouth once it comes out.
Reviewers will probably dock points for lack of diversity.
Lukewarm according to what lol. It's constantly on most anticipated lists. It's one of the most anticipated games of 2023, and THE most anticipated rpg of 2023
Lukewarm?
It's had 3 explosive trailers and everyone I know, even FF haters, are hyped as shit for it.
Whether or not that means it is good is a different story, but it certainly does not have a lukewarm reception
Must be the opposite day from whatever shithole you are living
>the friendless Anon says from the I/v/ory tower
what the frick are you talking about? this garbage isn't even an rpg anymore, square can frick off forever with this shit
Barry please, this is just sad.
>He doesn't even change the filename
C'mon Barry
Gonna be around 85-88 metacritic score
Not bad but not amazing
Literally nobody has the mindset that this will do bad so it wouldn't. Once people think, this looks bad, they'll look for absolutely anything to pick it apart like Stranger of Paradise's chaos memes
Nta but it's a post-FFXV and FFXIII Final Fantasy exclusively on Snoystation 5 featuring real time action combat with only 1 playable character. This one is all but confirmed to be DOA.
Different dev teams entirely.
>All of that
Literally irrelevant. Why people think Final Fantasy needs to be a turn based JRPG when FFXIV is the most successful game in the franchise is beyond me.
What do you mean? Chaos memes were a thing from the very first trailer announcing SOP.
Forspoken didn't list on COMG preorders before November.
FFXVI just made the list with 5 months still to go and the marketing train still to leave station.
86-95 depend how it is
the stage is already set for this to score between 90 - 95 and be hailed as a "return to form" for final fantasy
it's not even really about how good the game will be, although i'm sure it will be good, it's just a story that makes sense
following the general attitude towards and reputation of a game before it releases is almost more important than actually measuring its quality
There's nothing about the game that looks bad yet, I would buy on release if it was on PC.
It will be the P5 of this generation, aka a bunch of people who don't really play JRPGs are going to get into it and adore it.
Even if it's the most rancid shit imaginable it wont' get lower than a 7/10 solely due to being a new mainline FF game. FFXIII was awful but that still got great reviews.
it's a new FF game after the huge FF14 craze that has been happening
FF16 will sell like hot cakes
So what happens to Luminous after this flop settles in?
They are put to work on FF17 of course 🙂
I'll fricking kill you if that actually happens.
I guess it'll be lights out for them
they'll get another 300 million dollar project. squeenix is quite fond of their money shredder
I like to see Barry fail. The game being dogshit looking as well including it's protagonist is just the cherry on top.
Forspoken’s flashy combat and parkour can be fun, but they aren’t enough to make its cliche story and barebones open world very interesting to explore.
Idk combat and movement looks better than all other PS5 games even though the constant quips and story is fricking obnoxious
Movement seems fine but the combat has issues
its visual noise that doesnt look great and is weightless and has no impact.
Like you summon a lava crater that is just a orange water splash but it doesnt impact you any and after 3 seconds it disappears without any visible impact on terrain and enemies arent burning or anything. It was just a light show
This just tells me you don't have an eye for good action combat.
And this is with the reviews S-E choose, so after more people play and review it, it's gonna be even lower.
BARRY ON SUICIDE WATCH
i used to be a normal gamer
then ~~*they*~~ bring politic into gaming
and i found out that not only you can enjoy the game i like but i can piss other people in real life too, this is a win-win situation here
Who the frick is Barry you terminally online spergs
Some autist who was shilling this game for months. I dont know if he is a real person or just a contrarian raid.
sadly he is real and doing that for 10 years on Ganker
>The least ambitious Final Fantasy ever made
Sound familiar?
Don't forget about

Game is actually is 2/10.
why does my dick go hard whenever these woke pandering trash games fail?
We're going home in 5 months boys.
>Will have to wait 11 months instead
Leave me behind, brother. It's too late for me
Don't toy with me, anon. Would be amazing if they released alongside one another
It would, but its pretty obvious Sony paid for exclusivity through 2023.
>He doesn't know Sony might be flat our buying Square Enix
You will have a joint venture at most with specific ips like ff, acquisition wont happen
>might
Many things might happen, especially if you give every Twitter 'rumor' the time of day.
Personally, I can't see Sony acquiring SE. It would not go over well with the Jap market at all, and Sony aren't the only ones stuffing money in SE's hands for timed exclusives.
I am legitimately leaving Ganker for this game as we get closer to release.
I am strongly considering getting a PS5 for this game and SF6. The combat, the tone and art direction are all right up my alley.
anon in another thread said theres a credit thanking black female gamers? is he just yanking my chain?
Nope, it's real. Black Girl Gamers is credited at the very end, I believe.
?t=2442
man imagine what a genuine fricking minority this is
less than a million, world wide, easily.
Wow, both of them must be thrilled.
Remember when games used to thank a whole bunch of people, "and (you)"?
Now it's just the black gamer gurrrrrrl. And frick everyone else, and (you) in particular for playing this trash until the end.
>less than a million, world wide, easily.
More like less than a thousand.
Fricking christ. I want this game to fail so badly. I dont care the protag is black but my God. Credits having black gamer girls in it? When will the esg, woke shit end?
You misunderstand. It was with the corpo shit.
>Black Girl Gamers is a multi-platform, LGBTQIA+, and inclusive online gaming community of over 8000 black women that share a passion for gaming.
It's even worse
No one would assume that because it's written in plain text it's not a logo or stylized whatsoever
I did, it's why I googled it and relayed the info.

newbie
you'd think things get better over time when people figure out what people like and dislike, what works and what doesn't
Why are we going backwards
The game is designed to appeal to a western audience and Japanese devs think the market wants unattractive people based on western character designs. I'm not joking.
Clown world.
Because we are in a moron loop were marketers and social media memeterms like open world corrputed the thinking mans brain.
People beg for open-world while all their favourite games are linear, so companys create open world and then people get bored and call the game shit.
Instead of blaming it on the open world meme they ask for more open world because brainparasites told them that "open world" is new and good.
And so on
Jesus. You know a game is shit when those suck-ups at IGN give a game less than a 7.
>leave FInal Fantasy to us
How are people still not tired of the "FF sameface" ?
>no blacks
>finally can relax
Thank you FF16
always found it weird that they chose this angle for each of the screenshots, i wonder if this is sort of a stock angle for in-game conversations
It’s for character profiles on the Japanese site. They were ripped and brightened up.

>Kupka is a diminutive of "poop" in my lang

We know Polish bro. You've said this multiple times already. I noticed (You), don't worry.
>You've said this multiple times already
Impossible, I would've noticed
Dude posts "tee hee his family name means poop in my language" everytime a pic of Huga is posted, anon.
The capital city is called "Cipala" by the way
i know, i'm just wondering where the scenes will actually take place in-game, since they're all framed pretty similarly.
Oh, makes sense. Well with CBU3 they can stage screenshots like they do for FF14 promotional media. But I do know young Clive’s is from a cutscene from the first trailer, so it’s not totally weird.
So true brother. It's been a long time coming but we are finally getting proper Muslimah representation in Final Fantasy. May Allah bless Imam Yoshi-P, his followers and above all, Sony Interactive Entertainment for this noble endeavour.
It's refreshing to see attractive women wear feminine clothing in an AAA game.
wait, are the top two not the same person
younger and older version
alright, that's what I thought
Yes. The blond in the middle also transitioned into a woman.

Glad this shit is already failing. Can't wait for FF16 to destroy Luminous and garbage open world meme games to the ground.

Hahaha meanwhile XVI won't have forced homies and will be selling millions.
Fricking hell. Even progressive journos don't like it?
They are saying it's insulting to have a glorious Black woman in such a shit game.
No, they made the characters THAT obnoxious
What a feat.
Square didn't pay them enough
>MFW Dragon's Dogma II gets the same score as Forspoken
Why?
It's not like Dragon Dogma 2 will be some half-assed project with Itsuno involved.
Because if it plays just like DD1 with some minor fixes it's not that far off from Forspoken.
DD1 used MT Framework. DD2 uses RE Engine. Hard for two different engines to play the same.
DD1 plays miles better than Forspoken already. The main thing that held back DD was Capcom rushing it out the door half-finished, because at the time the company was actively trying to kill itself. DD2 is being given time and budget, and if DMC5 is any indication its going to be a very solid game.
His sole reason for hating Dragon's Dogma is because the combat director for DD is the combat director for FFXVI. Don't bother trying to squeeze any semblance of logic out of him.
>tfw Barry probably also hates the mailman because he once delivered a non-XV Final Fantasy game to someone
SOMEBODY STOP THIS MADMAN
The gameplay is ass, the world is empty, and the writing is atrocious.
You just described breath of the wild.
Yes, both are crappy games
What the frick happened here? Why do all the characters look like so ugly? Who developed this slop?
Luminous team is like The Gotham Knights team of Square Enix
>The aim of the company is to create new AAA video games for a global audience using Square Enix's proprietary Luminous Engine.
I see. So they try to cater to the west and this is what happens. Hope they learn from this.
This project is kinda old, so it is probably since games like avengers started development, square already realized how it is a mistake to westernize their titles but forspoken was already announced and just too far into development
That's interesting if true. Seems like they didn't see much merit in trying to invest anymore resources into this to tighten it up.
Forspoken seems like the cheapest AAA possible
If the game didnt have real actors or complex parkour animations people wouldnt think so much about it. The game really seems like a Unreal Engine asset flip, like "we made sonic the hedgehog run in UE5"
The mocap is bad,world is generic, no cities and npcs, everything looks cheap as frick
Guess the money dried up.
I've seen lots of criticism of all those things except the open world and i've barely been in these threads
If you take into account all the sites that were refused early copies that's not a good sign
>80 bucks
>Reviews overwhelmingly say its shit

>You: ARGH IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE RACIST WAAAAH WAAAHAH!!
Shit game made all the worse by the fact it has a black female MC, simple as.
I like how everyone is collectively shitting on this game. How will Luminous studios survive this?
Some have theorized Square made this flop on purpose so they don't have to create pozzed garbage in the future.
They won't.
has any other game in history united /v under the same hatred towards it?
this is the theoretical lowest that a tentpole triple A from a major publisher can get, so this game is dogshit
>mfw I have no face
holy frick I completely forgot this came out. Guess I won't bother picking it up now lol
I've heard from most it's pretty good for a star ocean but that it has budget issues at the end not like SO5 bad but still noticable.
>Square Enix CEO: something something we will now focus on our domestic market
>WITH NFTs
This game is his project btw
explain
Forspoken is a project created by the company's president targetting global audiences, so even if he is not the director
He is the guy who probably gave the order to use american writers and appeal to a western demographic
This is why forspoken is so unusual compared to other Square projects
I hope he's good at sudoku.
Im really wondering what will happen when his incredible nft plans also fail this year
>suit from the top: make it appeal to globalhomo
>well egs says what appeals to people is melanin, obesity, ugly facial features, whedonspeak and tiktok
>result: flopspoken
>forspoken is so unusual compared to other Square projects
Forspoken isn't unusual at all, Square hasn't made any decent games for a decade.
FFXIV reboot and expacs.
How many points is the black diversity shit worth on these scores? 1 point? 2?
It has one of the best stories in gaming, chuds
>ps3 tier graphics.
Wow.
ps3 graphics except it loads instantly from ssd instead of taking 5 minutes to load via hdd or bluray disc.
>muh graphix
I hope he gets hit by a bus.
Dude chill. Videogames are made of graphics.
I thought we collectively hate DF here.
I don't agree with that at least.
They're one of the rare acceptable journos because they're focused on tech and measurable performance instead of constantly shilling trash or speaking about their feelings
They shit on games that deserve it like Pokemon SV recently. They're not biased. Why would we hate them?
>They're not biased
Someone people said they're biased towards Snoy and Nvidia.
>Why would we hate them?
Just the impression I got from the DF threads.
>frick you I hate DF
>why
>I-I thought we all did
>I think they're fine
>w-well I've heard other people say they're biased while I was hanging out in threads about them, despite not watching them
What the frick are you
OH NO NO NO
The funniest part about all of this? Sony actually paid to keep this game off xbox for 2 years. Quite possibly the worst exclusive deal in history.
should have just made leh funneh gaem but they had to go the cw trashblock route tbh
black knight? more like khomie xD
i keep seeing this but lets be real, if this was the game that was announce, this board would still be complaining about the black man and going WE WUZ KNIGHTS AND SHIET
this board wants to talk about everything but actual games, so many posts talking about how theyre "suprised even the lefties are not eating it up"
the game is just shit. the dialogue is shit. the motion capture is shit and the face scanning makes the cute black chick look like shit. none of this has to do with the chick being black even though half the discussion is BLACK BLACK BLACK WOKE WOKE WOKE"
What do we do, Clive?
cute
Flopspokensisters... I thought LE people loved it...
So this is the power of PS5.
extremely indian
brown shitskins are so fricking ugly
Face capture was a mistake
And also squenix are incompetent
FF7R also had ugly as shit NPCs. Post some screenshots of them.
They really shoved every shade of mud into this game they could, didn't they.
IT'S SO DENSE

Anon, the PC version doesn't even exist for another 24 hours...
This can't be happening Flopspokensisters.... No way Neo The World ends with you looks better despite it's tight budget.....
what the frick, maybe they were forced to make everyone look worse than the main character, which would explain why everyone is fugly

so why's this game 80€ again?
because sony made their PS5 games 10$€£ more expensive for no reason, and SE said to themselves "why not?"
Because there are morons who will pay and defend that price because of muh inflation
>Gaming Nexus - 9.5 / 10
Im curious about reasoning. Unless it's typical "I had fun" and "modern protagonist".
B-but they have an ethics department y'all.
How can a game get bad reviews when the developer has an ethics department?
This was not supposed to happen! They told me the westoids would play ball if I add more Black folk!
>Forspoken is finally going to be released and forgotten about
>FF16 marketing is about to go all out
It's finally time.
They propably have to do, i dont think that square can allow themselve much plunders anymore with how ridiculius shit their last games were
>have to
Its not so much that as it is not wanting to overshadow one game with another, especially when they're relatively similar at a glance. That sort of shit's what killed Titanfall, for instance. Or rather what EA used to kill Titanfall.
In the same way that we're about to see and hear a whole lot more about FF, you can be sure we'll hear a lot more about DQXII once XVI is out.
>you can be sure we'll hear a lot more about DQXII once XVI is out
The next will be FF7R Part 2, because that is end of this year, and then it will probably be all in on Dragon Quest.
True, I completely forgot about 7R.
I think DQ and 7R can have their marketing at the same time, just FF that doesnt make sense because it is the same franchise
now I understand why SE is so desperately milking FF7. they are beyond creatively bankrupt
FFXIV's next expansion is going to get delayed because of this flop.
And nothing of value was lost
As a result hundreds, perhaps thousands will join the 41% in their final resting place and for that Forspoken has redeemed itself.
>muttslopen
They had a good idea with the magic system
Why did they have to make it an isekai with an American protag

Eh, i dont know. Spells look redundant in the gameplay i have seen. Looks like you just need like a combination of 5 or 6 to end the game
this game legit seems like it never stopped being a tech demo

Another square enix turd that will be half off in a couple months. When the Black person bonus can't save it, you know its bad
It's so bad do you think they will remove denuvo to try get people to talk about it more?
When IGN is giving you a 6/10 it must be fricking abysmal.
although flopspoken is god tier trash, you should still never listen to IGN. I can't believe to this day they gave Lost Judgment a 7. those homosexuals are just insane.
A 7 is a good score tho?
And this is the wave of selected journalists, lmao. I hope there is a second wave of salty reviewers angry for not getting a code.
Threadly reminder that they deliberately replaced Agni with some Hollywood black chick and this failure is 100% their own fault for bending over to Sony for a quick paycheck.
Even with that karen looking b***h, the game would still be shit.
>not written by Commiefornians
>no ugly looking characters
>a better world design (the squalor town in the Agni trailers looks way better than the brown and grey castle in Forspoken)
That would easily made the game more palatable to people. You'd be surprised at how many people don't really gave a shit about gameplay and mechanic depths. They just want a game that's not annoying to play through. Sadly that's what Forspoken is.
Pretending Forspoken has anything to do with that tech demo is like pretending that FF7Remake had anything to do with that PS3 remake of the FF7 Opening.
>FF7Remake had anything to do with that PS3 remake of the FF7 Opening.
Both were made by the same team tho.
Agni's Philosophy was made by a different version of the luminous team. Pre-stained by XV developers.
But agni's was probably made by visual works using luminous, not the xv team
It's the same game, just pre-Sony writers shitting things up. Agni's Philosophy was later codenamed Witch and was in active development at Luminous for next-gen (at the time) even before FF XV released. Tabata brought it up several times and showed it off again in 2015.
Witch was later changed to Project Athia and eventually Forspoken. You can see they share the same trademark in the PS5 reveal event.
>active development at Luminous for next-gen
No it wasn't. AP wasn't anything more than a tech demo. Tabata only brought in the Luminous team that made AP and fused it together with his team so XV could be developed faster. He only reused agni to show off the engine. There was never an AP game in the works.
If the writing and gameplay would still be the same it would still be a bad game. Just like how Lightning being sexy didn't redeem FFXIII.
thought it'd get better reviews after seeing that nichegamer, of all places, gave it a 7. i was expecting ng to give it a much lower rating.
Anyone of the reviewers get a PC copy at all?
The game seems like it's going to come out with shader stutter out the ass.
LMAO!!! How bad is the protagonist if it's highlighted in multiple reviews?
>Those positives
Skill trees are the most standard shit, lmao.
Look up a video. Within 20 seconds it will be clear what's wrong with the protagonist (other than race). She's a b***h, and she won't shut the frick up.
BARRY ARE YOU OK
WILL YOU TELL US THAT YOU'RE OK
I HEARD THE SOUND OF A SEVEN AND A ZERO
ALL IN YELLOW, BARRY
>watching IGN review
>you don’t get a melee weapon until you’re a third of the way into the game
What the frick were they thinking?
Really? Is that why on every video they are just using the pew pew spell? That's fricking lame
You’re stuck with earth magic for the first third, which seems to amount to shooting pebbles at things. Reviewer pointed out that there’s a lot of options like secondary uses, passives, buffs, etc that unlock for each element through the skill tree but made it sound like it’s an annoying grind and without those the combat doesn’t feel like a complete system. So it sounds like you don’t get access to good gameplay until you’re already almost done with it, just like Deathloop.
Huh, that "disingenuous" anon was right. The game did lock some magic 3/4 of the way. Kek. Where is that passive aggresive redditor.
Unlocking Sila's fire spells still made sense at that point, but once you get Prav's water spells the story changes gear and on your return to the main hub you're automatically teleported to Olas'zone, and once you beat Olas and unlock her spell school the game immediately puts you through a cutscene sequence and you're before the final boss door.
What the frick. How the hell is this game feels rushed? It got delayed for 6 months already. You mean to say if it was released back in October it'll be worse?
My guess is that the game wasn't rushed in the final year like so many games, but that the game had a much larger scope in pre-development that was then cut, but having 4 spell schools for combat remained.
The game has only the main questline, there's no sidequests, no towns, nada.
This is why i said this here
The game feels really barebones, almost weird to call it AAA
>The game has only the main questline, there's no sidequests, no towns, nada.
You're kidding me
You can explore ubisoft ruins
>The game has only the main questline, there's no sidequests, no towns, nada
What in the actual frick? Not even sidequests? Something is up. And btw, they've announced a fricking bloody DLC already despite the game being barebones (if what you're saying is true). I think, they've split that DLC up from the main game because pre-order numbers aren't hitting their target.
I never even heard about dlc, is this really true?
Yeah they announced it today.
no way
It was delayed a whole year
FF16 is the one delayed 6 months
Anon, Halo Infinite got delayed a year and released piecemeal over months. It took another year for its multiplayer to get on-par with release day Halo 3's.
These things happen when companies and studios are run by inept clowns immune to consequence.
Guessing SE expected a different early response to Flopspoken and then gave the team just enough time to finish it to do damage control on costs.
Ok lower than i thought. I was thinking 78. I would have bought it if it got an 80 but this just confirms the demo represents the full game pretty well.
If they make the character at least somewhat attractive, there are few bunch people like me who'll buy the game regardless the score.
Square enix is seriously going under if FFXVI flopped.
