No no. 50 bucks still matters. Even amongst all that spending.
Yeah, I just hope I can still grab the physical version for the normal price by then as I assume it has a quite limited print-run too.

Hmm, i don't know. Probably. Still, i'd wait.Yeah, I just hope I can still grab the physical version for the normal price by then as I assume it has a quite limited print-run too.
You're very welcome.
Since the spoiler thread is very slow moving, was I the only one that didn't understand that Tamao Kurabe was the 15th real human until the end? (Significant-ish spoiler)
Holy moly. This piece of fan artwork (for the 13 Sentinels Virtual Art Exhibit) is SO good.
Yeah that seems pretty steep, but look at this cool behind-the-scenes pic for it.Holy shit that "War of the World" inspired piece is worth almost two grand?!
They're relatedI have a question about something pretty late in the game, so only open this if you are really far into the story or have beat it:
Am I correct in assuming that 'Project Ark' (I don't know what this is yet!) and the colonies are two different things? Because they both have 'Sectors'. The 'Sector' entry in analysis is super confusing to me right now (just got it). But maybe I'm not supposed to know the answer yet?
Yeah you're probably not supposed to fully grasp the nature of those two things yet. They are different things though.I have a question about something pretty late in the game, so only open this if you are really far into the story or have beat it:

Ah, thanks. I can work with that :-)

What do you think you're missing? I'm not sure it's possible to miss anything to be honest? Can't you just warp to whatever section even if you could?
You can't miss a file in story.
The one thing that absolutely infuriated me in the final battle is enemy die so often it takes you out of the menu for selecting an attack skill, it was so dumb.
I don't think I've ever been this disheartened over the disparity between a game's quality and its sales/mindshare within the gaming community. It's criminal, and I feel helpless. Everyone needs to be playing 13 Sentinels.It's kinda sad how overlooked this game is. I think the combination of bad marketing plus releasing around Genshin Impact (which probably has some crossover and was a huge success) might have definitely took wind out of its sails.
I feel like something like a PS Plus month or a re-release on Switch (which I don't see happening) would be the only thing to bring it mainstream appeal at this appoint.I don't think I've ever been this disheartened over the disparity between a game's quality and its sales/mindshare within the gaming community.

Barely any marketing + niche appeal + Late generation release isn't a recipe for success, yeah. To be honest, I really hope Vanillaware's entire back catalogue gets ported to modern consoles or made more accessible in some way. This is my first Vanillaware game and I am definitely down for playing more of their games, even if they are completely different from 13 Sentinels.It's kinda sad how overlooked this game is.

Earlier this year when I first beat it, I talked about the game in depth with someone that beat it around the same time as me. The understanding that we came out with is that "it's definitely not going to click for everyone, but if it clicks, it clicks hard", and looking at this thread (and spoilers thread), it seems to be true.I don't think I've ever been this disheartened over the disparity between a game's quality and its sales/mindshare within the gaming community.

Pick up Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir or Dragon's Crown Pro. Can't go wrong with either, but I say start with Odin Sphere if you want something with a meatier story to complement the action.Barely any marketing + niche appeal + Late generation release isn't a recipe for success, yeah.

Most visual novel style games are pretty hard to replay once you have played it once. Unless you can somehow purge your memory of playing it once you know the mystery I do not know if you can really enjoy it as much as the first time.Has anyone played through it a second time from scratch? Is it enjoyable?
Yeah but that's still a problem because it'll make it harder for us to see high-quality localizations of Vanillaware's work in the future. I just really hope this game has legs internationally due to word-of-mouth.Yeah, this couldn't have sold well even by Atlus standards. At best, I think they can hope for word of mouth to aid sales in the long run just like in Japan. Regardless, it ultimately sold more than it needed to in Japan so Vanillaware should be fine. It's really Atlus/SEGA here that's going to lose money on the international release.
Yes. Although it was several months apart for me, and I played through the second time alone and with the English dub, which helped make things feel different. I also bounced around a lot more in the story, rather than just going straight through one character till I hit a block, which is what I did the first time.Has anyone played through it a second time from scratch? Is it enjoyable?
Don't think we've seen any but unsure how frequently Atlus releases sale numbers. I personally don't think this will do that well.I see lots of pessimistic talk about the game sales on the west. Have we official numbers?
It was always going to be that way.
I'm a big Vanillaware fan and I honestly had no idea what to expect until I read through some previews a week or so before release. It's a big change from their previous games, but I think it's easily their best game to date.It's kinda sad how overlooked this game is.

Those people only care about abusing the poor man.Masahiro Sakurai needs to tell all half a million of his followers to buy this game lol.
Haha, that fucking level took me four tries to S-rank. I struggled on a number of stages, to be honest, but besides the very last one this was the toughest for me at the time.
Theres a shitzillion enemies!
Theres a shitzillion enemies!
And I probably had the wrong setup, BUT THERES SO MANY ENEMIES!
Not going to lie, seeing a YouTuber/streamer I have followed since they were just a PokeTuber Tweet out that they bought the game today did make me happy.
I hope you're in a better financial situation in the future.I'm actually interested in this game, I loved Odin Sphere, Muramasa and Dragon's Crown... but this year hasn't been so great on a financial sense, so I don't think I can spend much on games by year-end. I've just been playing backlog games instead, but I look forward to playing this game sometime. Hopefully it sells decently enough.
I was hoping Gigguk or another big anituber would speak of the game and give it a little more attention, but i dont think that outside of promotional game content he ever does anything outside of anime.
I feel like if any anituber was going to talk about this it would've been mother's basement, but while I think he might've tweeted something about it at one point I can't find anything so I might be misrememberingI was hoping Gigguk or another big anituber would speak of the game and give it a little more attention, but i dont think that outside of promotional game content he ever does anything outside of anime.
