Yeah, the decline of k-pop is real.
Music has turned to shit as well.

What was good k-pop? I never listened to any.

Codex hates all kpop, so any answer is a losing proposition.
I like Crayon Pop. Not overly sexualised, cute, Korean, good pop music.



Nowadays everything is plastic soulless shit.

Major red flag here.

I am surprised Trannyera even allows discussion of this game.

Red flag.

Too much devoted to story/narrative? Doesn't sound as if the story's going to take a back seat like in say Ninja Gaiden.

A few months ago, Shift Up signed a deal to become a 2nd Party Partner PlayStation Studio. Sony's XDev is also helping with development.

This pinged my spidey sense too but its kinda hard to really lock it down. 70/30 sounds okay but 60/40 doesnt sound like enough game vs story. Its hard to know.

When you get to the point of 3rd playthrough of something like MGS and start skipping cutscenes you realise thats quite heavy on the narrative movie stuff but its still a good game.

Id call it a yellow flag maybe.

The “modern” character action game now seems to include some kind of AI-powered option to take care of the “difficult” stuff like dodging, combos, etc. If I'm not mistaken Rise of the Ronin and FF16 have similar options.

Stellar Blade Has Support Features for Easier Combat
Game director Hyung-Tae Kim says these can be enabled "at any time", allowing less skilled players to enjoy the experience

Shift Up’s Stellar Blade is coming soon to PS5, and several new details are available following an impressive showing at the latest State of Play. The action-adventure RPG promises fast-paced action akin to NieR: Automata (which served as a “huge driving force” for the project), but for those who aren’t as skilled, there are options to make things easier.

Speaking to German website Play3, game director Hyung-Tae Kim confirmed multiple difficulty levels and that players had to “make an effort” to master the same. However, there are “other supporting features that will help you in the fights. Even if you are a lover of action games but not quite as skilled, you can still enjoy the game. That’s how we designed it.” These options can be enabled “at any time.”

The options in question haven’t been detailed, but one can assume they refer to features like automatic dodging and parrying, simple combos, reduced damage taken, and more. Time will tell, so stay tuned.

Stellar Blade launches on April 26th for PS5. The story focuses on Eve, a member of the Airborne Squad who battles the invading Naytiba to save humanity. It’s about 25 hours long or 30 to 50 hours for those seeking full completion. Technical director Dong-Gi Lee also recently confirmed three graphical modes – Performance Mode (60 FPS), Resolution Mode (4K) and Balanced.

King Crispy - would you mind merging the current thread with this one:

https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads...by-nier-automata-and-god-of-war.127671/page-2

And moving the final result into JRPG section please? All similar games (Nier: Automata, DMC, Bayonetta) sit in JRPG section. Thanks.

 

[King Crispy]

Okay, but which thread should be the master? And what's the game actually called? Is it "Stellar Blade" or is it Project EVE?

I so confused!

Stellar Blade is the new name. Current thread can stay as the master, but works both ways. Thanks!

I see nothing wrong with this.

Indeed. Nothing wrong at all.
GOOD MORNING!!

Dunno why the new tomb raiders dudn't get ultra jiggle.

Ha! Imagine if that was the sun rising to setting. What a wacky world. Wonder what the moon would be.

This is the second most preordered game right now for PS5:

It seems that Korean and Japanese developers are the only two nations left that realize that having a sexy protagonist is good for sales numbers.

Frabjous news! Also somebody should inform OP that the game has an official title. I thought Crispy was going to merge this with the Stellar Blade thread but apparently he fell asleep. It's what old people do I guess.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

I remember when i was in Georgia trying to watch netflix and I kept falling asleep. I dunno how many times i rewound that video. One time i was like three stories after it. The miracle of technology.

 

[Zlaja]

This thread should probably be moved to the JRPG section. All Niers / DMC sit there.

But the game is fricking Korean. Moving it to the JRPG section would be very offensive to bug people.

Itz over.

Wots EGS?

 

[Gandalf]

What does going public mean? Does it mean the gov takes control over it?

 

[Baron Tahn]

I thought it meant publically traded? So you can buy shares in the company? Someone correct me if Im a dumbass.

He is saying some message oriented retirement fund/hedgefund controlled by DEI loving boomers like Vanguard, Blackrock, State Street, Goldman Sachs, et cetera could buy into it and gain enough of a foothold to force them to take the knee.

 

[Abu Antar]

What does going public mean? Does it mean the gov takes control over it?

The company will be on the stock market, where you can buy/sell stock.

 

[catfood]

It means that Blackrock/Vanguard/StateStreet/etc. will buy stocks which will give them leverage to add in ESG shit.

fuck the quality (you're bigot if you say our product haz flaws) your product must be made with our checklist so you gain points and money
Your vision and plans don't matter - it's our now

The story better be good then. That’s a lot of cutscenes and dialogue.
