It's the inner beauty that counts
I’ll watch that some day
I've read the first few light novels. Wasn't too bad, will probably read through the rest once a backlog builds up again 👀
I appreciate that ||he really does just stay powerless the whole time. Forces the MC to actually use their brain to get through situations. Author could easily have taken the route of having him discover some super magic or something and become OP, but didnt, and I can respect that 👀||
Hopefully there’s season 2
Even though Rentaro is good 😊 ||He help Shizuka in Episode 3||
Hii
agree
my #1 copout
Idk if i bad taste is really applicable to a fictional character whose entire personality was specifically designed to be wish fullfilment
Well Ataru is way better I mean he’s funny character
mfw "but mc kun is so kind" and then I'm like
"but all he did for 170 prior chapters is harass girls, peek at their panties, and get into trouble every time he got found out"
As i said
Wish fullfilment
Also to anyone who watched got
If im losing interest what season would you consider to be a must watch
I think it’s because Japanese Male Author dislike or jealousy Handsome J-pop group because girls being fan girl to them so that’s why they make average mc for male audinces
Just so i know if i should wait a bit more or not
Do you guys remember Scaramouche CN Community Drama?
I mean I made fan fiction text that MC didn’t ended up harem but turn into a girl forever and married attractive man and have babies The End :3
People are allowed to create and consume whatever content they wish
If its not to my taste i can just look for something else
We live in an age where entertainment is oversaturated in p much every medium
Your right
I could spend the rest of my days doing notging but binging shows and id still die before finishing everything thats out there
Theres plenty of options to choose from
it's fair to say that wish fulfillment makes up 80% of anime if not more
kinda hard to look away
ah yes i love making up fake numbers to support my viewpoint
did you mayhaps consider that
no and dont care
youre looking at it with tunneled vision
(i was trying to think of a better term but couldnt think of one)
all i see is like 2 out of 80 anime worth giving a shot each season
maybe dont look at at new stuff
or dont look at anime at all
why limit your horizons
Scavengers is a very cool animated series
check it out
it's world is kind of nonsensical and completely alien
u have to see it for urself tho, no point explaining

man
i was reading some older reddit threads
and someone posted a 5d chess comment
rob should have never marched south. He should have just declared the north as an independent kingdom, park his armies at the border, then if jeoffrey wanted to contest that claim he can just march his armies up north instead
ayo??
😭
Ok season 3 is winning me over
Hope it sticks the landing
Also my god why does everyone in this show look so good 😭
All the naked scenes are making me self conscious about my body image
ah yes, the true midgame of any Crusader Kings: kill your children before you die, or they will tear your empire apart. Usually I imprison them and let them die of illnesses, and more feisty ones go to a war from which they never return. 
Well, I meant that contrary to all the goodness vanilla CK mechanics have, this single mechanic should have been better polished by original devs, not modders. Or you end up grooming your single son for succession, then he dies and you are like:
"Oh well, I guess my empire from now on will be ruled by... let me see who is left... let me look a bit more... a yes, John Wilkins, our new emperor"
Im not sure what there is to polish
The goal was to simulate medieval diynasty rule
And thats how it went
well, I agree that it was good in simulating it. But as far as a game, it could have done better
Idk like
I feel like theres enough mechanics to give you control over the situation
Ive seen more posts asking how to get your current ruler killed than ive seen about keeping your groomed heir alive
Just wait till you get into the eugenics side of it coco
Afterall pureblooded is a trait you can only get by having both parents share 10+ common ancestors
about oshi ko no, i thought it was gonna be a detective series but nah
Aqua & Conan can be good Friends
Both of them got attack by Criminals but different between is Aqua got reincarnated & Conan turn into child because of the drug
i mean, it's got a little bit of detective work in it 
Bruh i need an anime which starts like “a meteor is approaching earth in 7 days, nothing can stop it everyone will die” and the story lies in the 7 days showcasing what happens throughout the world
12-13 ep anime
The memes are good at least. Havent watched the show 
Sata Andagi
Isn't that kinda like world eld
Isnt that just majoras mask
True fr
Yo I both watch Studio Apartment, Good Lighting, Angel Included & The Banished Former Hero Lives as He Pleases

Wait jake where are you rn
A convention in my current home city, Seattle 👀
They flew in Survive Said the Prophet and Spyair to perform concerts as part of the convention
Last year was Queen Bee and FLOW
must be nice 
FLOW would be awesome to see in person
It really is. There's maybe 300-400ish people max in the concerts. You can get right up to the stage
Ngl, Flow's was kinda disappointing. Queen Bee did one hell of a show tho
Interesting
Main singer had major Prince energy
only japanese artists we've had in my country in recent memory was yoasobi in the HITC festival, one ok rock, and radwimps coming this year
One Ok Rock would be so damn fun to see
I was so sad I couldn't make it to see Suisei when she was in NYC
Had no idea this even happened 😭
I was trying to price Ubers and stuff and it just wasn't gonna work out
There was a convention near me that had a raffle for a chance to meet Ina, but I was unemployed at the time and it was like, $100 for a chance at it, so I passed on it and regret it to this day 😂
100 usd to talk to a livestream of a girl for a couple minutes?
At that point you can get similar results for cheaper with a superchat if you care that much
Let me check it out, thanks for the info
Ngl i really didnt expect the stannis plotline to drag on for this long
At this point its starting to feel like a lamer copycat version of the daenerys plotline
Also didnt expect them to cliffhanger the greyjoy plot for so long, it s been like 6 eps since they were last shown
thxs
Thats the only real good stopping point
Honestly im surprised they even went that far in one season
I guess they really wanted to do the arise scene
yeah
igris is so funny and stronkk
and so badass
tank is most funny for me
igris: you dont deserve to sit on that throne!
WAIT
WHY DOES SUNG LOOKS LIKE TOJI??
System: good luck
LMAO
so many memories coming through :)
(i still simp for sung)
final episode of the season timeee
Shangri-la Frontier will release season 2 this fall and it will be 2 consecutive cours again
I used to pray for times like this
coool
i never watched it fuly
dayum
so
they added a golem instead just being a lot of enemies?
they even changed the lore?
wtf
is this based off of ln?
SEASON FINISHED
that was a new refresher
any anime recommendations?
What are you in the mood for
GTO
Like a game-themed one?
what
anything good. but hmm adventure is my fav genre. (is it even a genre)
I mean like in shangri la frontier the story happens inside a game world right
If so then i recommend quan zhi gao sho (chinese anime)
Its about a popular professional player being forced to retire due to insider politics in his team, then he start from scratch to get back at them kinda
Hmm
I dont actually speak chinese so idk lmao
If you want adventure without action you can try kinos journey
Just thought the anime is cool
okkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Have you seen made in abyss?
MADEO IN HE-
no
Watch that then its one of my faves
yes
Ah also
?
Hold on
huh?
huh
Its basically one piece but in a historial setting instead of fantasy if you prefer that
it's really not tho lol
Frieren's where???/
iti s for me
what is spice and wolf
yes

finished the manga a few years back it's so good (but also so boring I'd not recommend it to anyone but it's so good!)

I liked the old look tho ngl
didnt watch the old one so im liking the new look
same
Just talk about whats going on your mind in the moment
Also sidenote
Ive been awake for almost 36 hours now binging got
And somehow im not even that sleepy
Thank god its weekend
And watching this many episodes back to back
Made me realise that im not the biggest fan of the directing of american tv shows
For some god forsaken reason every single important character has to have some degree of romantic subplot in their character arc, even when said arc has absolutely zero to do with romance
And i despise that camera trick they do with important reveals where they purposefully delay showing an image of the big reveal and instead pan around its edge or focus on all the characters shocked faces and such
While dramatic music is playing
It feels like the dramatic equivalent of a jumpscare
Its there to get a cheap in the moment reaction out of you then move on like nothing happened
Theyve really started spamming this trick in the current season im in and its starting to drive me insane with how often its used
WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH
bak looks so goofy
so gooffy xD
It’s Baki bro. Wouldn’t be Baki if it weren’t goofy.
That guy you’re seeing here stopped an earthquake with a single punch cuz he didn’t want it to interfere with his fight. 
baki is so goofy
Youll have a much more enjoyable experience with baki if you treat it like jojo
The moment you see a karate master completely shred a concrete pipe barehanded, throw all expectations for realism out the window

Is the person on the far right a dude
They look so hot as guy
Male Tohka looks like Scaramouche 😭
Or I forgot the guy name from Tear of Themis
Why does Kurumi looks like Diabolix Lovers or Bungo Stray Dogs Character?
they all are
far right is my fav genderswap lol

wat
xD
time to start up mha ep 8
btw how to pronounce uraraka
I would imagine the way it's pronounced in the show?
I ponounce it as "URARATA" XD
I mean if you listen to the show that's how it's pronounced
idk 
also, not a mod lol
staff mod same thing
o
before the anime was announced i always imagined her to be blonde cuz her hair is white in the manga instead of shaded
ooo but it doesnt kind of fit her
eh
you only say that cuz youre used to the brown hair look by now
when i saw the anime poster for the very first time i thought brown hair doesnt fit her
Oooh someone experiencing bnha for the first time

my mom gave me ice cream WITH A FORK so i guess ill eat ice cream WITH A FORK and watch mha
wha
i ordered ramen and udon from a chinese food place
that food is designed to be eaten with chopsticks
but i dont own any chopsticks
so i thought a fork was the 2nd best option
wat
what part of that was unclear
ur weird
indeed
enjoy
meanwhile im halfway through got now
i enjoyed s3 and s4 a lot more than 2
i like that plotlines are starting to conclude finally
s4 in particular felt like it had a lot of big events
only real complaint i have about the story right now is that i wish some of the plotlines were more intertwined
s6 is where dd right?
there's a fair number of them now that are completely isolated from everything else
vigilant deku or smth
the actually cool loking deku
after season 1 of the anime i became manga only so idk when the anime reaches a specific arc
i know they even changed the order of some of them
that is the intent yes
S2 was peak for me personally
ok
huh the sports festival... ( i dont go to school that often so idk what happens there lmao)
Sports 
And a festival

i mean
most schools dont really hold festivals in the same way anime presents them as
so you going to school irl doesnt really mean much for this

i only talk in these
S2 is peak for one reason alone (well, on top of some S-tier animation)
Hi Gigguk, I hope you don't mind me cropping out this segment of your Spring 2017 impressions for my blog post which I will link to when I am done with it. If you do not wish for me to use this clip, I will happily take it down.
enjoy
wtf
wtf is that hairstyle
wht hair
i thought she just has a big ribbon
oh
yoimiya has a ribbon
deku = nobita but anime xD
Good ol two cours
I used to love and hate my hero academia at the same time
but instead i kinda like it
m
i really liked it up until the all might vs afo fight
then i slowly lost interest
i still read it tho
this might sound stupid, I actually lost interest because of the fandom itself.
many people say that too
WOAH
WOAH
NO WAY
I OPENED UP SHANGRI LA AND I CLICKED THE EPISODE I ELFT TI OFF WITHOUT KNWOING
THE LUCK
you have the golden touch
for your information
like legit fans are still arguing over ships and who has the literal strongest quirk
ok
you have that with every fandom that's big enough
i still member when naruto and bleach manga ended
and people started to come over to one piece
and online disscussions started to shift to powerscaling
man i hate powerscalers
The what touch
you dont know the story?
that doesnt answer my question
What is my name

theyre fucking annoying as hell, they'll do anything to bring a character from a shonen anime then compare them to the current character
yes
xD
crazy
Time to watch Gundam 00 the movie again
This is literally my dream April Fools Prank
The banner should've been the gif version of this though
(Please watch Gundam: The Witch From Mercury)
its okay ig
but I never really understood WoM though
I mean sure, cool Gundam designs like the Pharact, Lifriths, The Aerial, The Schwarzette and The Calibarn
but it was just a bunch of school shit for the first 12 episodes
which was a bit boring tbh
damn, I gotta rewatch Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans tho
Do witch are sort of modernize IBO of Gundam? They radiate similar vibe or soul for me...
except you don't see The main characters of WfM casually killing people
Ibo was wild
especially the Gundam Frames.
like ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos Lupus Rex
My favorite Gundam before Aerial Rebuild was Vidar
ah yes, ASW-G-XX Gundam Vidar
hmmm I wonder whyy 🤔
surely nothing to do with current or past world events :clueless:
surely not because of migration :clueless:
tldr the ottomans ruined everything
true
I love how u bring it up in #・anime
I don't see a place to discuss history and socioeconomics here tho
probably banned topics
Well, not an old school Horo, but I can live with that, if they manage to go past 2nd season

@edgy bone
RAGE of dust tho
i have so many questions
why would they put a chair and table on top of an opening hatch
why did she think that shooting him would prevent any blood from spilling

progress on mha s2
Yum
James May would approve
What are you watching?
My hero academia
New Spice and Wolf makes me teary at the beginning
||they actually have a child|| 😭
huhh is it the sequel?
wolf and parchment
No, they remake it
I really liked BNA
tanuki girl was totally a tomboy
agree
back to spice and wolf
I was hoping they'd continue from season 2
Its too unrealistic
Im watching I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince So I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability
By this point most of the audience hasnt seen the original
||Gosh I feel bad the MC in the beginning||
||He’s reincarnated into a princess- I mean prince! He’s look like a girl 😭||
doubt
I'd say a large portion of the audience will actually be the people who have seen the original
Do you genuinely believe over 50% of the people watching it on tv were even alive and old enough to watch tv back in the early 2000s?
I fail to see how it's not considering it's the most used website by western anime fans
for Japan side of things you'd have to look elsewhere though
Most japanese people dont use interact much with english sites like this
Japense culture is p xenophobic
Tbh, it was a decently popular show when it aired, but it's not anywhere close to as ubiquitious/a staple of the anime scene as stuff like Naruto and Dragonball are.
I'd be very surprised if more than a third of the audience watching it has watched the original. I'd expect seasonal watchers and people who just dont watch "old" anime but will watch a new reboot to vastly outnumber them
Not that it doesnt have a lot of fans, but moreso how much of a bigger percent of the anime community now is new watchers/casual seasonal watchers
true
I also am unsure of rebroadacsting culture in japan
If they dont rerun old stuff its even less likely to bother doing a sequel for an old show
kinda crazy how the western animme community grew tho
America is a big place
back in 2016 on mal the only anime to have above 1 million members was SAO
now there's 155 such anime
And the pandemic kept a lot of people in houses
CrunchyRoll coming out and Netflix adding anime to its listing really blew up the amount of non-weeb/otaku casual viewers of anime
interesting
I wish they had better international coverage but alas
I heard crunchy has shitty services anw so i dont think id bother with it even if half the shows werent region blocked
The jump from 2021 to 2024 tho...
crazy
i think I finally get why i can't get into frieren
even tho it has a lot of the qualities that I want to see in fantasy stories
i just can't relate 
can't get invested
in any of the characters* or the world* or the themes* (ok maybe some themes I like there)
(Is it living rent free in your head)
it is quite disturbing when a show you consider thoroughly mid tops the anime charts at 9.39/10 average rating
How long have you been watching anime for
usually I'm not in the minority so it feels quite odd
8 years
I don't think it matters tho
It does
If you told me you started yesterday i wouldnt be surprised if this was your first time
But to never have an unpopular opinion in 8 years? That does surprise me
no well
I do have a lot of unpopular opinions, but never to this extent
what kills it for me tho? either the pacing or the fact I can't get invested into the characters
I don't know, you probably haven't watched anime when Naruto just started airing. It blew my mind how it was so popular at that time (and pretty acclaimed too), while also being completely mediocre. After that I just don't put much value to community votes
I still quite like naruto to this day
fwiw I'm not a fan of Naruto either xd
but think about it this way
imagine there's a weekly show that airs on TV during your childhood for 4 years straight
But yea going on topic
ur gonna get attached innit\
well yes, it's not bad. It has satisfying fight scenes and nice relatable characters. But overall it really doesn't have much to brag about.
If youre interesting in writing or anything tangential to that it may worth analyzing your feelings to get a better perspective about how different writing styles and techniques work and all that jazz
If you arent honestly its probably better to just move on instead of worrying about it
hmm thinking about it more, there are certainly games that fall into this category for me, so maybe I shouldn't be so surprised (e.g. don't like Persona series, multiplayer shooters are a no for me, don't like BG3, etc)
Ive seen and read quite a few shonens by now and there arent that many of them that hit me in the same way naruto does
And speaking of unpopular opinions
I keep hearing that got goes to shit in the last 2 seasons cuz the writers had to make up the end of the story
I say their writing capability was already pretty mediocre to begin with
I think the increase number of country they reach also the main reason of this
Im midway through season 5 and theres so many individual scenes that feel odd to me
I tried watching naruto multiple times (and have played through games a bunch of times, which are pretty fun btw) and never got what is so special about it
And then i check the wikis
And i find out theyre tv show only
Yet i dont see anyone talk about them
unpopular anime opinions posting sounds pretty epic let's go
That plus they wanted out of Game of Thrones so they could work on Star Wars, so they rushed everything for the final arcs into two seasons when HBO was more than happy to give them another two or three seasons to work with...
Then they fucked up GoT so bad that Disney dropped them from Star Wars entirely 
whats GOT??
Game of Thrones
Idk like
Every time i feel weird about a scene i look it up
And i almost never find any disscussions about it
All the hate ive seen is just the last 2 seasons
Yeah, they were set to do a whole trilogy of Star Wars films until they got yeeted out post S8 
S5 is generally seen as the start of the decline, though it has a few standout episodes that kept fans from losing out hope just yet
unlike BG3, Persona series is very unique and you won't find that sort of gameplay anywhere else (well, games do start to borrow ideas from Persona lately thanks to P5 popularity, but still that's a far call). That's the major appeal, but if someone doesn't like the main appeal of Persona, then ofc it's not a game one would like
I disagree
The gameplay is a p traditional turn based jrpg
The only thing unique about is the flavour and presentation
turn based jrpg is not what you play Persona for. For that Shin Megami Tensei exists
it's a visual novel with pretty standard, cookie cutter, rock paper scissors turn based strategy gameplay, I really don't see how that's unique
somehow I dislike the combat more than the storytelling
I tried p3 and got bored by it p fast
P4 was especially egregious for it, but there the dungeons were so shite it could never be saved
I liked p5 cuz of all the extra polish and the dungeons being handmade now
P5 dungeons were more bearable, I loved the inclusion of puzzle elements in the pyramid
I could discuss the speciality of Persona, if you are interested. I won't bother, if you are not interested though
gonna try P3 remake one day, but I dread the infinite procedurally generated labyrinth
there was nothing to fix, it was an intended part of the game
Id argue it was more of a convenience feature
Daggerfall used procedually generated maps too
It wasnt cuz the devs liked it that way
It was cuz making thst big a landmass by hand was unrealistic
u can try to convince me that there's no 'one beats all' strategy in P5 but I won't believe you
gameplay is too shallow to last for 100 hours I'm sorry
The unique part of gameplay is being able to communicate with enemies, trying to persuade them, receiving benefits from them (this is the part of P2 and P5 gameplay). In Shin Megami Tensei, enemies can troll you, asking for gifts from you for their service, but then just leaving you or attacking, after you gave them your health. To properly do demon diplomacy, you need to understand demon types and then you can successfully argue with them. That's pretty much the unique part of SMT gameplay that resurfaces through the series here and there and I don't think any game replicated that well
I dont think its really fleshed out that mucj
All it amounts to is a guessing game with the options you get
And i mean guessing game
use brain tho
Same species can ask the same question but consider different answers right and wrong
U can discern the enemy type from it's design, dialogue, and elemental type
Read what i said
don't rember that
seemed pretty consistent when I played it
What games have you played
Persona 5 bad game 
it is partially a guessing game, but it's not if you played through multiple SMT games with that mechanic (because Atlus uses the same bestiary for most of their games). So after some games you have an understanding of what specific demons represent and what they want from you (or what they dislike)
we're talking Persona series, yes? I played P4 and P5
I tested it p thoroughly in smt 4 and it was just random
though I never finished P4 (gave up at the true boss cuz I was so over it by then)
we're talking P5 here, not smt
Persona came as an offshoot of a larger Shin Megami Tensei branch
Time brought up smt
I know
I'm just assuming the whole mechanic of recruiting enemies is better executed in P5 since I haven't noticed any inconsistencies there
I never really bothered with recruiting in p5 but i also never got super far into it
recruiting - yes, diplomacy - not really. P5 borrowed from predcessors, like P2 which heavily relied on this
It felt like i always had enough money to just buy new demons when i wanted to
Granted that may be cuz of all the random dlc shit they give you
I hate how atlus does that with their games
ah yes, that DLC stuff is op and ruins the game. IDK why they do that
I imagine its a halfway measure to trying to add gacha type buy in psychology tactics into a game that wasnt designed with that in mind from the ground up
mostly for those who don't want to have anything to do with jrpg part I guess
No one called it bad
(I also really hate the usage of the words good and bad in conversations like these so i avoid using them)
fr?
try a drinking game
take one shot every time they mention adults
I dont drink
Why? If you think something is bad, then say it. It's not like it becomes true if you say so, but it is a simpler way to communicate
anyway I'm gonna play Persona 5 Royal cuz I miss big tiddy goth gf
Because it doesnt mean anything
Nothing is good or bad in a vacuum
Its all in comparison to some metric
And for stuff like this there is no agreed upon metric
when people say "bad" they really just mean they don't like it, or they find it's qualities to be inferior to other pieces of media
Calling x detail bad is the equivalent of saying you dont like x detail
don't have to take it that far
Id rather say that
Nah persona 5 story is bad 
Its clearer and more descriptive
It had one good arc and that's it
yeah except for big tiddy goth gf, she gets a pass
It means that you think it is good or bad. That's just how people think. If you avoid that intentionally, you just provide ambiguity where there shouldn't be any ambiguity from your point of view. Unless you don't have a strong opinion
I avoid them because they bring ambiguity
That one's actually ties in to the themes of the game, so yes
I wrote a 5k word rant about it when I finished it, wanna see it?
Also
why? It's not like you gonna change a person's mind. If a person doesn't have a strong opinion then maybe
I thought the story was Joker having a criminal record then he stays in the café
The chat bubbles are good too
I mean it doesn't really start until kamoshida
grahhh we need to rid of these pesky adults
How about P3 and P4? what about them??
Which is when it's good, and then immediately after it's ass
personally, I prefer if people clearly state if they have a strong opinion (like saying stuff is good or bad), then I don't need to waste time trying to explain minutae to them that won't be even interesting for them
yeah they were a little less on the nose about it
A lot of people (especially younger folks) have this sentiment that there is some objective goodness scale and if someone disagrees with them they commited some sort of sacrilege
It breeds needless hostility
so the story is getting rid of adults??
Also p5 just has the blandest party members
Its the same idea as replacing the word god with a different name when arguing to christians
the story is grahhh rotten adults, we are teen titans, we fight corruption, i am so emo, bring me a big tiddy goth gf grahhh
Bro you gotta stop bringing up the doctor
no well u played it so u know what the story is about, don't think i need to explain
but uh
The term has a lot of attached sentiments in their head and replacing it makes arguing easier because it doesnt bring those feelings to the foreground
sry couldn't help making fun of it a little xd
Really? I thought they were cool.
There's 2 personality traits for every character and that's it
true, that's cuz it doesn't have big tiddy goth gf as a party member
!!bonk
well, no. Out of all Persona series, P5 has probably the most average set
OWWIE!
That was towards caveman
how about P3 and P4 story??
!!bonk
P3s is good at the end, p4 is the most consistent throughout
story and characters is different. But I would argue that P2 >= P3 > P4 > P5 in terms of theme and characters
what do you find good about P4 (other than dungeons, no one finds the dungeons good in that game)
guys should I replay P5 though the Royal version, or play Super Mario Odyssey?
The goal isnt to change their mind the goal is to have a fruitful conversation
the setting is rather simple, but the mystery and characters make it good
Calling something good or bsd fullstop doesnt tell me snything
ok yea I'd agree
the mystery itself thrives on simplicity
Those words mean nothingin a vaccuum
I thought persona was all about mystery
as for p3 reload, the graphics look amazing
the pause menu is so good
no, it's a thing for p4 and p5 mostly. By mystery I mean detective mystery
those words mean that a person has a strong opinion. Which is good, since I don't need to explain anything to such a person.
But then you arent having a conversation
detective mystery is fucking good
I can have a conversation on a different topic though.
what are some detective mystery games other than persona??
There is no point in having a conversation on a topic where both parties have made up their minds
Phoenix wright
If you want non japanese there was that telltale detective series but i forgot the name
I would specifically suggest either 999 or Danganronpa, though 999 (and the whole series) could be tough at times
HEAVY ON LAYTON
Idk what that means
Sam and Max
but Wolf Among Us is better
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Before walking dead
ehh? Sam and max is one of their oldest series
Didnt they take the ip from someone else
Nelson tethers was what i was thinking of
Its basically a layton game but with american writing
yes, they did
but for Telltale studios I think it was one of their first IPs
there is also When They Cry series (VN and anime) that you either love or hate or both at the same time. Probably one of the best mystery stories out there padded with an awful amount of useless text
telltale are the best games
walking dead and the wolf among us was one of them
Ye its older than i thought
Im only familiar with the og pixelart game
And my internet went out
At least i was at the very end of the episode
there are a bunch of great detective mystery games from 2000x. It was a golden age of detective mystery
Culpa Innata
The Sinking Island
Fahrenheit
Still Life
well, I guess I should add Pathologic too, which is a detective mystery in its core (and also much more), you just try to figure out a murder mystery inside a pandemic
its main problem was that it was too bizzare for most people
Vampire: The Masquerade should be there too, if it was playable without mods
I thought thats an rpg
it is, but the narrative is more of a detective mysterty
aint no way...
among rather modern games I would suggest Heavy Rain (which was completely spoiled I think) and Code: Rain (a very fresh game). Both are insanely good
oh yes, Rain Code
How about rain rain
well, if you like Rain Code, you might find interesting Zero Time Dilemma (which is a third installment of Nonary games of which 999 is the first game). But you can enjoy just Zero Time Dilemma without delving into previous games (though the story is connected rather strongly)
yeah, that one is good too
If anything, I would say the second game in Nonary games series is probably the best sci-fi game story there is, from inventiveness point of view
lmao, hobo isekai. Every episode she sifts through trash. Like EVERY episode so far
hobo math
Hi fi rush is peak gaming
Man
Im starting to think the writers just hate sam for some reason
Its been 5 seasons and they never allowed his character to be anything more than a sterotypical beta male that everyone makes fun of
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
