>I am George Kamitani from Vanillaware.
>I’ll go into detail about the reasons behind some of Dragon’s Crown design concepts.
>I believe that the basic fantasy motifs seen in Dungeons & Dragons and the work of J.R.R. Tolkien have a style that is very attractive, and I chose to use some orthodox ones in my basic designs. However, if I left those designs as is, they won’t stand out amongst the many fantasy designs already in the video game/comic/movie/etc. space. Because of that, I decided to exaggerate all of my character designs in a cartoonish fashion.
>I exaggerated the silhouettes of all the masculine features in the male characters, the feminine features in female characters, and the monster-like features in the monsters from many different angles until each had a unique feel to them. I apologize to those who were made uncomfortable by the art’s appearance, and did not see the same light-hearted fantasy in my designs.
Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again? He seems like a good dude.
 It's All Fucked Shirt $22.14 |
 UFOs Are A Psyop Shirt $21.68 |
It's All Fucked Shirt $22.14 |
Because he's a like and must destroy anything that suggests normality.
FICTIONAL SEXYNESS BAD
BLIZZARD RAPE GOOD
>Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again?
No idea I'm surprised normalgays like that moron even know vanillaware games exist
because schreier is a fricking butthole, that's why
>Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again
Because the israelite fears the Samurai
>Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again?
Because after accusing the dude's art of trying to pander to e-girlcons and getting absolutely destroyed for his ignorance, the artist basically called him out as acting like a massive homosexual which just triggered Jason's tribal passive of "I must now act like a victim of harassment."
What an unbelievably based reply. Not only did he ddo the gay callout, he actually did prepare a really good picture for the fans. I actually have no idea, but are any gaygays attracted to this?
>are any gaygays attracted to this
For sure. I wish he had gone with the softer body proportions instead of garbage like
Yeah the body looks like it's been drawn by a baragay, he honestly can draw pretty attractive masculine men when he wants to, adult juro from 13s comes to mind for exemple
>attractive masculine men
Dragon's Crown Pro's Fighter is a massive example of bara mega muscular body and a biseinen face. He's basically an anime handsome version of the WH40K Emperor (changes in hair color of course). The Mage is handsome as well, but obviously not as bulky.
I can understand someone not being attracted to the Amazon because of "muh muscles" (you have shit taste if you think this btw) but sorceress universally appeals to every single straight man on earth, if you're not attracted to sorceress you're a certified homo
>sorceress universally appeals to every single straight man on earth
It's in our DNA
I liked the Amazon more. Is this OK?
I also like Elves.
>I liked the Amazon more. Is this OK?
that makes you a man of true taste and scholarly attributes
It is perfectly fine. It means your kiddos will be very healthy.
>attracted the the sorceress
We got a pedo in our midst.
I still don't understand what was going through that israelite's head when he said that, it must have been projection right?
Some weird lactation thing?
Deflecting pedophile, all israelites rape kids
im pretty sure he was just trying to sound smarter by using words he didnt understand
Could this mean he uses words he doesn't understand all the time?
how does one not know what the word pedophile means? and more importantly how can a person like that land a job as a journalist?
He didn't use the word "pedophile", he used the word "e-girlcon".
Which is still a basic b***h term to get wrong, but at least it fits within the limits of credulity that he'd get it wrong? I'm guessing he once saw some video of an adult woman with big breasts in pigtails and childish clothing as a fetish thing, saw it was labeled as "e-girlcon" and just assumed til that moment that e-girlcon stands for any big tiddy woman you lust after.
It's still stupid no matter what.
The core of his argument was about LE MALE GAZE EXPLOITATION and was banking on that, as you can see in the reply. The e-girlcon bits there was just his "cute/sexy anime girls = e-girl" stupidity which he didn't think he'd get so obliterated when he got that wrong, but the most of his argument was about how Kamitani drew Sorc to have huge tiddies that always bounced around, were barely contained, and would draw the eye of theplayer therefore MALE GAZE EXPLOITATION HURRR
One of feminism's goals in disruption is to make taboo the male urge to find younger females attractive. There definitely is a point where youth does objectively move into pedophilia territories, but after that, men tend to value youth in women, and that's largely because younger women produce healthier offspring and are generally more malleable and pure, with purity helping to ensure that the child is yours and you've successfully produced offspring. Feminism attacks this by condemning men being attracted to youthful looking women, and condones you being attracted to older hags that ruin their body after they've had fun.
You can actually watch this phenomenon still happening today. Why do you think anime games constantly get attacked for being sexual, but western games like Last of Us and Baldur's Gate 3 are praised for being "safe horny"? It's because Japanese still draw their women like attractive women, and because BG3 ages up and makes masculine all of their females.
And it wasn't even about not being attracted to them because they look hot. He outright claimed people were pedos for liking the woman. Jason was high on some crack and making wild accusations.
I just don't like Amazon because bikini armor is the stupidest fricking thing. Micro bikini armor at that.
Do we need to post some pictures of naked dwarven men for you, as well?
gayest fricking post I've read in a while
what's wrong with bikini armor?
it's kino as frick (both male and female)
if I recall from an interview he did with totalbusicit he said he did the original article decrying the art style and artist because it looked like low hanging fruit to him and he had to meet a deadline. Sounds a bit bullshit to me, and of course he didnt do his research to find out the artist in question owned the damn company which led to and the months long shit posting war between George, Jason, and everyone who picked a side. Im sure trying to save face and sunken cost was what kept Jason going after he got blown the frick out in the first week, it was way too much heat for someone in his position otherwise. Excellent times I look back on fondly, truly one of the galvanizing moments in favor of breasts in vidya.
His reasoning should register as digging the hole deeper. He is saying he acknowledges his job and company are destructive to culture and is willing to do that for money. He went from foolish to enemy.
If everyone that like this we would be closer to fixing the problem. Working at game journalist outlets would tank your reputation harder than any crime
to be frank Schreier has mellowed out in recent years and is not nearly as much of a c**t anymore.
I can believe that is what his company was pushing. Kotaku is a shithole and almost everyone who left Kotaku always goes on about how shit it is (look no further than Tim Rogers, who pushed the boundaries of what Kotaku found acceptable during his time there)
We are honestly getting into an era where clickbait video game review sites are on the decline and independent journalism is increasing, but it's only a matter of time before independent journalists as a majority fall to the same business tactics
That's only because he grew out of it, and now he's a "real" journalist doing stories like Blizzard's scandal.
Him being a petty shithead still leaks though every now and then.
>to be frank Schreier has mellowed out in recent years and is not nearly as much of a c**t anymore.
Wasn't it just recently that he was shaking and seething because a small indie studio had too many white men?
That israelite did just that, two years ago. Shit it's even posted in this topic.
The anon you responded to is Jason himself probably.
Dude, he called the Sorceress design being for pedophiles.
He's full of shit.
Boom, right here.
My ire at the lack of Vanillaware games getting PC ports is buffered by the magnanimous nature of that reply.
Though as awesome as it was, my patience is wearing thin. Sega (and Marvelous among others) have done very well on PC even withformerly limited titles like Persona 4 Golden being stuck in Vita jail, but sold a fortune when it came to Steam with reasonable pricing. There's no reason that Muramasa Rebirth needs to be stuck in a similar limbo, or that Dragon's Crown (Pro) wouldn't do amazingly well on Steam with the potential for co-op beat em up play. We could use all the Vanillaware titles like 13 Sentinels too or back to Odin Sphere, but lets at least get a start now.
>pic
no anger
no apology
just straight up burning his ass.
based reply.
It's probably the single politest instance of calling someone a gay I've ever seen.
>doubles down on being wrong and tries to dismiss people that "know e-girlcon" in a way to suggest that they themselves must enjoy it because they know so much about it.
I've seen this image a hundred times, and it's reading it is just as infuriatingly stupid as the first.
When I was like 18 I DMd him on Facebook with a pic of me in a shitty novelty gimp mask in my underwear asking him to put me in his next game and he replied thanking me for being a fan but telling me that boss looks too strong for anyone to actually beat
for real?
>>I exaggerated the silhouettes of all the masculine features in the male characters
lest we forget
Who is he answering to, like this.
He's awesome and shouldn't ever need to apologize for his fantastic vision.
Cloutchasing.
I like the design of the sorceresss'ss''ss' legs.
>Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again?
Sexy characters bad
Japan double bad
e-girl
FANTASY
Her face is 12, you sick frick nonce.
>why is a israelite being a subversive demon
same reason birds fly. its in their nature.
>Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again
he is a israelite
>Dragon's Crown: Treasure of Demon Island never made it to the west
Still salty
>Dragon's Crown: Treasure of Demon Island
This is fricking bull shit
WHY THE FRICK NOT
I feel like Schreier must have just misunderstood what the word e-girlcon meant. Like surely he saw it used in relation to anime porn and, from context clues, failed to appreciate the specificity of it, concluding it merely referred to people who like hentai of any variety. Right? Surely he could never be so stupid as to believe that Sorceress appeals to pedos.
his tribe isn't very smart
they just repeat shibboleths to get desired emotional reaction
Lack of observation and research sound like wonderful traits of a "journalist"
It's more like he thinks anime is pedo.
Because Schreier is a fricking rat whose entire career has been based on outrage, lies and clickbait. And it's made him and Steven Totillo a ridiculous amount of money.
He does.
Tim Rogers had him on a stream once and he suggest Jason watch anime to help his japanese language learning and Jason flipped out.
Yes, it was a clear-cut case of him using a word he didn't know in a context that didn't work. When people called him on it, his response was essentially "w-well you would know".
nah. israelites are calling anime watchers and japanese game players pedophiles.
been that way for a long time now.
PC RELEASE WHEN
PLEASE
I'M BEGGING ON MY KNEES
How is muramasa on the vita emulator nowadays I can't find my vita charger
im wondering as well.
because he drew attractive things and that's not allowed anymore
Meermaid with Buttcheeks.
Thats why i love Vanillaware.
>Because of that, I decided to exaggerate all of my character designs in a cartoonish fashion.
Bro that's literally all he does for every vanillaware game, Dragon's Cross is just the first time where the player characters are also just as exaggerated. The man somehow reworded "muh style" into "this was a deliberate design choice"
SO what?
you act like h'es on trial
My problem is that anyone who took offense to Dragon's Crown's designs clearly have never played or even seen any previous Vanillaware game and it bothers me
>The man somehow reworded "muh style" into "this was a deliberate design choice"
Are you saying that personal artstyle isn't a deliberate design choice?
>The man somehow reworded "muh style"
>"this was a deliberate design choice"
What? What on Earth is the difference?
>uses D&D
>but doesn't use any of the cool older D&D designs and instead focuses on making all the PCs something you can fawn over
no wonder it's shit lmao
Why won't Vanillaware port their stuff to PC? Is this game worth Emulating?
the game is the definition of mediocre
it just has really cool art
You are clearly someone who never played the Dwarf
Are you fricking high? It was one of the best couch-op games of the 2010's
>each class is unique and has multiple viable playstyles
>loads of enemies and bosses
>streamlined quests after you do them once so trying out different classes is easy
>after launch added endless mode and PvP
>artstyle and characters are dripping with soul
the only complaints I can think of are the touch controls for some stuff is finicky and it never got the DLC treatment that muramasa did
hell ya
>Build my dwarf entirely dropping your weapons with the power attack then grappling the shit out of everything
god what a fun fricking time
Someone thinking DC is completely mid is how you know they have nobody to couch-coop with.
It all looks like it was heavily based on pulp Sword and Sorcery style stuff. The painterly quality, the contrast, the masculinity and feminist at full steam, but with more catoonishness tossed in.
I dig it. Didn’t like the game itself though.
i wonder why
>Why did Jason Schreier try to get this guy fired again?
He didn't immediately kowtow and beg for forgiveness like he was supposed to. He needed to be made an example of.
>get this guy fired
pretty sure kamitani founded the company and he's also the lead artist /character designer and writer there
yeah it was just a fun exchange, Kotaku holds no power of the japs
I don't read kotaku, what's the context to this?
I bought this game three times just to help support the sorceress' giant breasts.
>Schreier
I wonder.
all this shit was pretty funny when the game came out and elf was the best girl by far because she had an actual shapely body with nice thighs instead of hyper exagerated muscle/booba fetish and was also really good in gameplay (key aspect of being best girl, power is beautiful)
