It's an utterly irredeemably shitty dungeon crawler with invisible enemies / random encounters, Dreamcast-tier graphics during gameplay, and VN style events between dungeons with a boring, drawn-out story but pretty good 2D art and pretty sexy anime grills which have the gimmick of larping as heroines from western fairy tales, and that sadly have too little porn made of them. Would've been much better if it was just a pure VN without garbage gameplay.

The Playstation brand was Sony's only profitable product line; Sony as a whole has a terrible credit rating, and I believe certain (((agencies))) have their stock at a Sell rating, still. If developers are abandoning it for Nintendo, then they will be forced to make some serious changes, or possibly sell their gaming division off to the chinks to pay their bills.

Have clothing destruction down to bare naked. Have an arousal mechanic per character with masturbation and inter-party fucking.

There's no reason to have a singleplayer game have shit gameplay, and stories that incorporate the gameplay as more than a means to an end can and have been done. Games like Nier AuTomato prove that games with good gameplay can be as long and story-heavy as ye-olde bullshit books with menus. Turn based jrpg bullshit is a waste of the medium. The only single player turn based games that are valid are tactics games, so there's at least some depth to them.

They won't reverse course no matter how much money they lose for one simple reason: leftists are in this industry to push propaganda, not to make money. Sony is going to die due to this policy, and the people who forced them to do it aren't going to care one fucking bit. They'll just blame evil capitalism or toxic gamers and infect another company.

Gameplay was shit and I was severely disappointed in both P* and Taro.

The bullet "hell" segments were below entry tier except for the very last one, and only if you don't use the cheat the developers give you that you're supposed to use for it to have the proper emotional impact. Only thing about the gameplay that was good was the player moveset. The chip system was a good idea, but under-utilized. I still really liked the game though.

Even, then it needs simple rebalancing of enemy parameters. When you're equal ground with enemies, on any given difficulty, they die too quickly with the exception of a select few. And that'd really just be a crutch for the core issue of the weak enemy movesets.

Leveling systems are fine, but they're assbackwards. They need to start you off at a higher level, to reflect the easier difficulties of earlier areas where the player is just coming to grips with the mechanics. Then, gradually power down the player while introducing new and increasingly complex mechanics to compensate for the lower ATP/DEF. Then introduce some sort of level threshold for an area that the player is automatically set to upon entering - to get away from people intentionally avoiding leveling to cheese their way through. Maybe also have bosses that are impossible to beat without some new skill to weaken them, or dodge their attacks, which are unlocked at certain levels (and introduced by the area enemies, so the player has plenty of time to practice). Grinding should still have secondary rewards, but it shouldn't be a focus of the game - and the primary reason for engaging with enemies being to become fully accustomed to newly introduced movesets/abilities.
Plus, you could probably come up with a pretty good head-fuck story with the framework of becoming weaker as you grow closer to the source.

I think it's more of a Fool's Gold Mine. Regardless, these policies of Sony's are still moderately recent developments, and the console is at the end of it's lifespan with an existing large install base. It'll be more interesting to see how willing companies are to support them going into next-generation when they have a combined pre-installed customerbase of fuck-all for the first few years and a combo of heavy-handed San Fagcisco censorship with (from the way it sounds) an excessively expensive system.

That's true. But I worry more about how anti-consumer the consoles can become, a non-hacked Switch is even shittier than a non-hacked Vita from a user standpoint. And the PS4 is terrible with its absolute dependency to online features, so I cant imagine what's a PS5 could show next.

His argument has nothing to do with it, true, but it seems you've never heard of the 1000 Yen Heroine debacle. One of the recent Tales games had a female character that became a fan favorite, but about halfway through the game, she leaves the party for good. Bamco thought it'd be a good idea to have her half of the game be DLC that cost 1000 yen. The result was that the game bombed so hard that JPs were talking about finding the game for 500ish yen about two to three weeks after its launch. When Phantasy Star Online 2 announced a Tales series collab, the text "1000 YEN HEROINE" was spammed on the niconico livestream so bad that it completely covered the screen.

You're talking about the country where artists are forced by law to censor adult content no matter the format since WW2. Censorship is something you have to compromise there, but the japs wont take lightly when it gets too obvious and ESPECIALLY when gaijins are the cause of the censorship. (Remember Star Ocean 5's debacle?)
From the featured user reviews on amazon japan I've seen, the sole PS4 games that really got heavily criticized for being censored were that Nora visual novel on as well as Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Springs, but those light beam censors were very obnoxious in games that featured lewd as a selling point. Other games that were reported lightly censored by the policy, like Super Neptunia RPG, DoA Xtreme Scarlet and Arc of Alchemist got a shitty jap score mostly for being very bad games in the first place.

You're horribly mistaken. You learned about 90s censorship via the internet because people had access to the uncensored versions from Japan to post on the internet. That doesn't happen if it's censored in development stages rather than translation/"localization". We can get some info from devs that leak it and break NDAs, but it's not always clear and won't happen for every game.

This is the first time i've debated whether SOV failed because of pantsu vs the overall game. I bought the game on launch. It was an irredeemmable garbage fire that would've bombed even if it was labelled as a mainline Final Fantasy game.

I mean, I've heard the claims, but haven't seen anything in actual practice. Haven't really heard the claims of dock bending past launch. Most the bending claims weren't from heat but from just force in your hands. It doesn't get particularly hot for me, either. Hell, I've seen a video of a guy purposefully trying to overheat the damn thing and all it does is turn itself off with an error, but I suppose that might have been a console patch added later. I'm gonna assume it's like that squeeling thing with launch models, where it happened to a few of several million and was probably overreported. Dead pixels, on the other hand, are much more believable, and scratching seemed pretty widespread at launch. Don't know about drift yet, but I've seen more claims about that, too.

He's not wrong, though. SOV was garbage that followed on garbage (SOIV) that followed on from a tepid reception (SOIII) of what was once a niche and well regarded hidden gem series (SOI & II). The games have gotten worse and worse with each new installment.
They couldn't even get Phantasy Star Online 2 right, when all they literally had to do was to take what Sega already had created - add a story mode and rebalance for local/ad-hoc match making. Fucking Alfa System was able to salvage the mess that was Phantasy Star Universe and make it into one of the best Phantasy Star games ever released.

You don't need an english patch or a function understanding of the language to play the game. There's tons of translation guides already out there, and before long you learn how to be a functional illiterate with it. I've long since given up hope of an english patch, and have come to terms with it.
Though, now that I think about it, Sega could really make a killing by "remastering" PSP2i (they already have most of the assets done with PSU AotI) and release it for $20 or $30 on the Switch. It's a great party game for local multiplayer, and the game already has functionality for online multiplayer built in - without too much of a demand for high-maintenance server costs since the game is already a complete package, not a service that has to continually be provided.
And since the switch is portable, the naming convention still works.

They probably made the dock very large to help with visually explaining what the product does in marketing and also to help with brand awareness with the Switch logo being that big on the dock and all.
With the Wii U, the marketing did very little to say what the product was all about and the name didn't help it that much. Was the console the handheld? Where was the main box in the marketing? Can I use the gamepad on my Wii?
With the Switch, it's very clear that the tablet and the dock are a part of the same console, especially with the dock being the same size as the screen and the words Nintendo Switch written in big letters across the front.

It depends on the title. People bought PlayStation with the expectation that it'll be the machine for ported VNs, Persona, Super Robot Wars, Atelier, and other weebshit titles. Titles like Dragon Quest Builders 2 sell better on Switch.
They pulled this shit after people who wanted their games have gotten their machines. People in Japan won't instantly switch en masse to the Switch just because of the SNOY debacle. Disposing of electronics (or anything you can't throw into the garbage bin) is expensive in Japan, you can't just dump it into the garbage pickup area. Living space is also expensive. The PS4 has almost no resale value to retailers. So once you've bought a PS4, unless you're rich by Japanese standards, you're pretty much stuck with it. Then there's also the price factor: physical copies of Switch third party multiplat games are usually 1000 yen more expensive than their PS4 counterpart.
The real test will be when the PS5 launches.

It does depend on the title, but the niche games that are fanservice heavy sell better on the PS4, and the margin of success for each category is generally different, switch games when beating PS4 titles will just barely inch them out, ones that sell better on PS4 will sell significantly better, often around 2x the amount.

Yeah, definitely, but PS5 is still the favourable platform overwhelmingly, as I posted above the PS4 will get all the major non Nintendo Japanese hardware sellers, and Switch will get almost none of them, so it's success is an inevitability, and the support of japanese developers is too.
I'm going to stop derailing discussion in this thread now.

I didn't grind them, I killed them once and got several levels.
Leveling system in Nier: Automata is absolute dogshit and only exists because gooks can't imagine the possibility of not having grind, XP and levels in their game.

Final Dungeon Chronicle: Guilty Requiem. Which is actually ToHeart2: Dungeon Travelers. The former is lewd CG and monsters girls, the later is the cleaned version for PSP & Vita.

It's not damage control, the both of you are just being shitlickers. Here's what's probably going down:
1. Sony refused Idea Factory any kind of clearance for MSN2 without them absolutely editing the touch mechanics and other game aspects (like lewd CGI). So IFI decided to take that loss and publish what they could.
OR
2. IFI, after being bullied on four different projects by Sony (Moero Crystal, Arc of Alchemist, Dragnir whatever, & Brave Neptunia), decided it was worth the loss to begin moving prospects away from Sony's systems. Who's to say how that will pan out.
Bottom line though is IFI is putting the game out. People curious about it should ignore the fagmorts in this thread and actually buy and play it. Hell, nab it used off the Vita if you want to test it. CH/IF doesn't make god tier dungeon crawlers, but they're serviceable most times. MSN is also one of their more involved stories, and the waifus and fairy tale turned dark aesthetic is nice.
Again, if you're all curious, nab it and see.

Four CGIs redrawn at Atlus's request. Dialogue's in tact and the postgame monster dialogue is lewd as fuck, so no I never got why they did this. I will argue that spats made that loli hotter, but fuck censorship otherwise.

Monhun may not have XP and levels, but it sure as fuck has grind. A metric fuckton of it, in fact.
Especially if you're like me, with a zero in your real life luck stat, so you never ever get the right drops you want to make something.

These devs wont renew any contracts with Sony. Switch has already outsold the Ps4 in Japan in only two years there is no incentive for them at all to stay with the Ps4 as most of the market for these games is in Japan and Nintendo now owns Japan. Consoles can go take a flying fuck but I have to admit Nintendo is handling the Sony sunbeam bullshit in the correct way.
People in the west might not be big fans of the games but people see how Sony is acting and it will give them second thoughts about buying Sony consoles.
Here is the best part. Most in the west never buy these games anyway but Sony's retarded actions against a mainstream game (DMCV) have made normalfags notice these other games they have censored and they now want to buy them uncensored. That means for most buying a Switch. Well done on the censorship Sony. Well fucking done.

I just slap together a mixed set that gives damage up and look up what quests progress the story, and it's not THAT grindy if you play it like that. Low drop rates just give me a reason to revisit the game every once in a while.

If you play a game called Monster Hunter and don't expect to hunt a lot of monsters I don't know what to tell you. You can always play a different game if you get bored with it.
