I know they were teasing something outside of VNs recently. Was hoping it might be Mystery Dungeon related.

Oh well.

 

[InfiniteNine]

But why?

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

conception 2 starts off with a strong impression then becomes so bad that it makes neptunia look like ff7

 

[Tizoc]

Wasn't this game decent?

 

[Grim Patron]

lol out of all the games

 

[Rhaknar]

But why?

Because they know it will be a instant top seller the fay it releases

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

Wasn't this game decent?

it's pretty bad

 

[Neoleo2143]

Ah, a shame, was hoping for something more... Interesting.

 

[Tohsaka]

I got the platinum trophy on the Vita version, so I probably won't rebuy it. It's a decent game that doesn't take itself too seriously, the dungeons are kind of bland though.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Wasn't this game decent?

no

 

[Nudull]

All that hype for a crappy RPG. Oh well.

 

[cw_sasuke]

But why?

...why not ? Weird comment.

[Marmaladefire]

I own this because it was like $6 on PSN one day, but..Should I actually ever play it?

 

[desmax]

The Battle Music is kinda catchy, I guess

There's a good way to decide this. Do you value your time more, or your money?

 

[Marmaladefire]

Welp. Guess I have an answer.

 

[texhnolyze]

Oh cool, it's not available on my region.

I guess they don't want my money.

If I open it, I just get redirected to the steam homepage.

Aw man. That completely neutralizes my defense of "but I liked the demo" if you say it takes a hard southward turn

 

[orochi91]

Lmao

 

[mabec]

This game is not available for the EU market, so far

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Oh.

I tried to play this game, but it's just so ...ick.
After a few hours, the feelings of disgust and confusion become overwhelming.

 

[Domstercool]

Oh, it has the perfect music for this!

:>

Fun, if a bit mindless, RPG.

 

[Leafhopper]

One of the games that gives Japanese games a bad name.

 

[GhostTrick]

Why. Why, Why, Why. Between Grand Kingdom or Exist Archive, why THIS ? ; __;

 

[Norci7]

Wishlisted.

august 16th

comes with mini ost

 

[Eusis]

If the first one is actually subversive I'd like to see that ported and translated. Otherwise I don't care unless it ends up as bundle fodder in the future, then sure why not, I have worse games in my library.

 

[sanhora]

Why 2 and not 1?

 

[Eusis]

Why 2 and not 1?

... Because 2 is already translated?

 

[Tohsaka]

Why 2 and not 1?

The first game was on PSP and never localized.

 

[sanhora]

... Because 2 is already translated?

Didn't know the first one never came out here. I guess the story is self-contained and unrelated to the first one then?

 

[Corpekata]

Didn't know the first one never came out here. I guess the story is self-contained and unrelated to the first one then?

No, you need to play the first to understand the plot of having creepy babies with high school girls in order to fight evil.

 

[Hikami]

Huh, what a weird choice.

Wasn't this game decent?

I liked the characters and their interactions. Story and gameplay was pretty bad though.

Wasn't this game decent?

from what i read 3DS version was pretty bad, and PSV version was OKish (6-7/10) , but have no idea .... never played the personally , but from what i read so far doesnt soud that horrible as some says

 

[Quonny]

Starts off strong with some pretty interesting if not tropey characters and a fun little star children collecting meta game, but it falls apart.

The story is bad, the gameplay is mediocre, and they never really do anything with the characters besides make them waifu bait.

 

[Intel_89]

I only played the demo and other than the children making mechanic it wasn't all that interesting nor fun.

 

[Guymelef]

It's one of the worst niche jrpgs I've played in the last few years.

 

[Thoraxes]

Wasn't this game decent?

Good start, bad end.

I played a lot of it too, but when you get to the end the last boss is a fight of attrition. You just have to go in there with a shitload of healing items and spam the shit out of them while hoping you have enough healing items to last the fight.

I liked each of the girls and their stories, and each of their endings is easily accessible provided you did all their bonding stuff the whole game, which is easy.

I've played a lot better, but i've also played a lot worse. Still, it's neat to see even something like this come to Steam.

 

[Trigonometrize.]

What about this game's start was good? I just remember the creepy headmaster forcing you and Fuuko to fuck right out the gate because muh star children. The game is beautifully bad.

 

[Indelible]

One of the few Atlus produced games I regret buying, incredibly repetitive gameplay and a cringe inducing story.

 

[yaffi]

Well, at least now people will be able to avoid the awful english dub.

Though I wonder why we get the jp voice overs now and not back then.

Yea, I mean, I only played the demo so maybe this is not a fair judgment, but "beautifully bad" is apt, I feel. The fact that the main character is called "God's Gift" alone is... is... I don't know the word. Like I find it funny and off-putting at the same time?

Spike chunsoft publishing it and not Atlus this time.

Ah, I see. I must've overlooked the game changed publishers.
