No idea what's up with the plague doctors but that could be very interesting considering the stock of villains who were already in the game.

FeMC is a stoic cutie who's so pettanko she may as well be a long-legged loli. "Here’s a look at a new female protagonist voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro, who voiced Toko in Danganronpa" Interesting but pointless since she's just gonna be grunting or making anime sounds here and there. Maybe some in-battle lines.

New party members are voiced by Maria Naganawa and Kenji Akabane, known for the loli in Occult;Nine and Ivan "Slam the Black Martian Race into Space" Perepelkin from Terra Formars

There's also the anime coming out, which will likely follow the original Vita version's story, so those without a Vita (or who get nauseous at occasional frame-rape) can enjoy it that way. Hopefully they don't pull a P4 anime style and have the protagonist speaking unnecessarily.

Anime's set for April and I'm sure will definitely be fan translated before Overdose is localized.

I'm sure Atlus will publish this one on behalf of Furyu, too. Might as well just wait on it till then since there's no reason to get an inferior version.

I think the story will definitely be different, so the Vita version has its place, but being able to run through the game without staggering frame-drops and having so much more content is superior by far.

>plague doctor mask as random costume

Fuck this shit. Why does this show up in random fantasy bullshit, but there is not a single game where I can play an actual plague doctor? I just want to save peopleor dump them into a pest mass grave if I fail.

Anyway, this looks like a typical jrpg+high school simulator. Is there anything particular interesting about it?

>>13813828

>Is there anything particular interesting about it?

For starters it's from the guy who wrote Persona 2 so it's bedrock isn't set in the SoL sim that latter Persona games (and after their success, other JRPGs like Tokyo Xanadu, etc.) go for.

The world is fake and those who wake up to this realization can't go back to blissful ignorance but either overcome their trauma or become a drone because of it - and everyone has trauma. Everyone has a broken or sordid past, ranging from suicide to whoredom, bullying, child abuse and more. It is for this reason that these pathetic and wicked people were sucked into Mobius, the spiritual matrix the story takes place in.

However, it's revealed that the longer people are in Mobius the less connection they have with the real world, leaving their bodies to remain catatonic. People have already starved to death or gotten into accidents (and its mentioned that parents who are stuck in here may have allowed their babies to starve to death), leaving them as souls without bodies forever trapped in this daylight dream.

Because the world is fake, people in it have fake appearances which have been altered slightly or drastically by the overlord of this spiritual matrix, a pop idol who says she just wants to make everyone happy.

To say more is really giving it away, but I like to suggest it's a bit like a blend of dot hack and Persona 2.

It's also been said that the chief writer really wanted to challenge severe taboos and that's why there's so many grim elements to the story and themes. At one point the folks in charge supposedly even went so far as to suggest to him,

>Hey this is getting a bit much, maybe we can tone it down

to which he responded by going harder, apparently to enough success to earn an anime and full-on remake with additions like Overdose.

Course that's just hearsay.

At its core Caligula Effect is about abandoning the desperate escapism we put on ourselves to flee from facing our trauma. It's a mystery plot with the central theme of overcoming our wounds and growing up.

That's the reason I enjoy this game so much.

…Well that and I like juggling enemies for extra damage, but the framerate isn't very consistent in the combat and can sometimes be a pain in the ass with slowdown depending on how many opponents there are.

>Calugula fag

I have to say, much as I'm really glad for what Overdose offers and its promise of a consistent framerate in combat, I really don't like the new look. The old aesthetic showed the characters breaking the digital surroundings and glitching through the matrix to fight, which makes sense in the world's context since Mobius wasn't meant to have conflict like this. It was also just cool to look at.

The new aesthetic is lazy in comparison. No more glitching or static. Everyone is just blue. That's it.

>You use Steam if you shit on the PissPoor

>>13813951

Gameplay has you going through dungeon areas built like a school, a mall, an aquarium, etc. You go near an enemy, they transform and combat begins. In combat you have different moves and each character in your party (you can only take three at any time with you) has a particular talent. One guy is a bruiser good for lifting opponents in the air, where you can then shoot them and get more damage on them. Another is great for status effects. Long range, short range, fast attacker, etc. all factor into how you deal with an enemy.

The ideal method which becomes necessary as you continue on is to keep the enemy off their feet or out of attack. If they guard, use an attack that breaks the guard, if they are about to attack get yourself out of the way. You can look up the combat online. It's about prep work and quick thinking until you unlock your ultimate attacks, at which point it's about juggling those and replenishing your stamina to do it again.

When you're not fighting you're interacting with the main cast before each dungeon and between narrative segments. Each character has a very interesting backstory and the more you interact with them the more moves they unlock, if I recall. It's worth it, especially Shogo, but their character episodes are tied to the narrative so expect to hit a wall and need to continue the main story before seeing more of their extra-plot development.

You can also recruit random NPC as, well, PC, but why would you? It's pointless. They don't add anything, don't give depth to anything, have no character or story and are essentially fodder. You'll stick with the main party the whole game since they are actual characters and they really grow on you, especially once you find out who they really are.

The major selling point is the story obviously since this is a JRPG but the combat is genuinely fun (when it works) and there's little things here and there for you to search out on your own, little side-quests which each have their own small stories that build up the world and themes a bit. Maybe. Mostly. To be honest I haven't done even half of them by the time I finished the game. They are entirely optional.

In the end the story and characters are the core of the game (as usual) so I highly suggest looking up absolutely nothing about that at all to really experience it for yourself. It's great. As for combat, you should look that up and see if you think it's worth it as it is. It's a flawed but good game for the Vita, but if the framerate seems like a deal breaker then just look up a longplay or something or wait for the Overdose edition, whenever that's released.

Or wait for the anime in April.

>are you going to defend cuckolding in this thread too?

You are never cuckolded. You do not cuckold anyone. No one is a cuck in the game. You don't have to romance the single mother. There are better girls in the game. You don't listen to this, though, because you are so traumatized from coming out a broken home in Detroit that you get triggered (using that term in its proper psychological application) and start REEEing every time the game is mentioned.

We were talking about the remake. Why would they release the remake on the same system as the original? A whole thing from the last thread was if Caligula would get a PC port or not.

Because otaku ecchi pandering isn't the same as a western game pretending to be japanese. The closest game we have for weebs is No More Heroes.

I mean he's not actually wrong, negroes were in better shape in the Jim Crow era. You can't make them smarter but you can socialize them to a limited degree.

I'm just so tired of paternalism and trying to uplift these people when we should just let them revert to their natural state in a country of their own. If black nationalists can get them to act like human beings, great. If not, whatever, it's no longer our problem.

>>13816466

>If black nationalists can get them to act like human beings

Don't hold your breath.

>>13816612

>What are you talking about? They had the family for a long time until a sociopolitical change.

The state of Blacks in America at that time was imposed by Whites. The sociopolitical change you refer to was one of a shift from White dominance to Jewish dominance, with Blacks changing roles from a recognized underclass shepherded along by Whites to an army of golems to be weaponized by the Jews. Because the Jews don't care about Blacks except as a tool against Whites, they didn't bother with the paternalism and, if anything, encouraged an exaggerated version of what Blacks naturally tend towards (i.e. with drugs, gang culture, etc.).

Let me make it clear that I'm not anti-Black in that I want them to fail. I just question the wisdom of attempting to bring them back to White cultural norms. Extended kinship groups, tribalism, and matriarchal family structure isn't something that was created by material conditions, it's just their nature. As far as I'm concerned, we should separate and allow them to run their society the way that they wish, without interference by Whites or Jews.

>>13816666

He is probably feom a carpetbagger state, and his nog family has been for ages. Some/seldom older negro families from the south are very aware of how nice things were when whites were in charge. Northerner nogs were almost always jewish golems.

>>13816785

Niggers cannot think ahead, so that doesnt come to thought often for them. Negroes/house niggers probably have enough social upbringing from whites to assimilate without much issue. But today's chimps? Theyd probably just become feudal raiders/savages, as nature intends. Or, Detroit 2: The Niggening

Enough of this it's derailing the thread and not remotely supported by the stats we've seen and the common sense in our skull.

Fact is, men like webm related are root in

1. God

2. Family

This is what separates the thug from the man, the father from the wife-rapist (not his wife, mind you).

You can go anywhere you please in the world and you will always find the disparity between those who have values and those who do not, and what lies at the foundation, or lack thereof, between them?

What is the dividing line?

The family and the God. You can function to some degree if you remove one, but to remove both leads to Chiraq and Detroit - which, by the way, are liberal run.

If Blacks were inherently violent, lazy and worthless then these absolute opposites would not exist, yet they do, and so we must question what factors led to their creation. When we look back we see that at one time Blacks had proper families and though there was still plenty of criminality it was not the bleeding streets and over-shoulder-glancing we see today. Remove the father, remove God, and you have darkness.

Well, darkie, since you want to espouse god and family, how about you:

>A - Become a skilled tradesman, or get a technical education.

>B - Find some sheboon to marry and get a farm.

Wasting your time here promoting a bad video game on a site where youve been bullied relentlessly is helping nobody. Especially not yourself. But that is asking a lot from a carpetbagger nignog from da souf syde of chicongo
