re: ukpol. cunts. transphobia
why might a colossal transphobe like streeting want to keep under 16s off social media. i wonder. what he thinks. they are "catching" on here
The new character art for this version is good by the way. I think all you furry old man likers out there are sleeping on Ataho
So would I recommend it? Sort of??? It is undeniably cool that a Disc Station game got remade & localised, & if you want a short, quirky martial arts RPG with good pixel art starring a pissed up tiger and don't mind the bad loc (or understand JP/KR) then by all means get it. Maybe on sale though
The other big problem for me is that the English localisation is bad
On a basic quality level it's full of mistakes and inconsistencies but the fatal flaw really is for a game that's supposed to be full of humour and quirky characters, so much of it is just flattened out. Everyone talks the same
The question is... will I actually go for all that?
It's a game with a lot of charm and a lot going for it but it also has problems
The encounter rate is high which makes exploration pretty tedious & I'm not currently relishing the idea of a big ass no-save-points mazelike bonus dungeon full of that
Well I reached an ending..! There were some secrets I missed, I didn't get the true final boss, there's a post-game dungeon I haven't tried yet, and two new chapters added to this version depending on your performance in that dungeon. But it's a short game & the intent is you'll replay it
As for Gensei Suikoden, not being familiar with the original I didn't realise at first, but "Plus" actually has completely redrawn graphics, so all this very nice pixel art is brand new. Here's some comparison shots via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQd7bdvnbho
If Gensei Kaishingeki looks familiar to you & you're the particular kind of weirdo I am, you might have played the arcade game Shocking by Yun Sung which ripped it off pretty closely
I was looking into the original Gensei series, they were mostly distributed with Compile's Disc Station magazines in Japan and Korea but Gensei Kitan was released standalone. Smash the dog is the recurring protag. he is Horny. the 5th game Gensei Kaishingeki concerns his hunt for legendary porno
somehow this was actually the first furry event of any kind i've ever been to...! it was cool!! sorry I didn't post anything before going I was mad anxious lol but I probably will go to another one of these so if anyone would like to meet up at a future one lmk
