You haven't met the right girl.

I'ts a japanese game, what the fuck did you expect man?

>real

I think I found your problem.

>>132929027
I don't understand why they still stick to this derivative shit. Dark Souls did such a good job breaking out of the standard Japanese conventions, why don't more games do the same?

Did you expect anything else than japanese shit?

It's like they're in some sort of weird video game world where shit doesnt need to be real. Oh wait...

You should stop projecting, op, don't be so self-concious

Yeah, that'd be awkward as fuck

>>132928870

Troll post or retard. You decide.

I've met weirdos who wear frilly lolita (the japanese fashion) dresses everyday. I've also seen people suddenly awake after sleeping in class and start to shout crazy nonsense.

That was years ago. :(

OP went to a very boring highschool.

>>132929137
Really.
Are you fucking kidding me.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. You can't possibly be this stupid.

You seem to be terribly upset over such a minor thing. This tells me that you were apprehensive to begin with when you started the game and that you don't seem to enjoy tropes native to Japanese entertainment in general.

Which begs the question: why the fuck did you even try this game? Simply so you could have something to pointlessly rage about?

>>132929294
of course he can be.

>>132929137
Why are Dark Souls fanboys such faggots?

>>132928870

do you live in northern russia or something OP?

>>132929137
Because they have to milk/make money from vidya, just like the west.
Imagine a new COD with Kawaii-uguu-bullshit but complex and rewarding as fuck gameplay, would the average player buy it?

Pussy.

Chie is socially awkward so it's totally in character. That's also why she's the best waifu.

>>132929294
Why is he stupid, because DS was shit too (never played it), or there is some deep reason japs make same crap over and over again?

>In fact, nobody fucking does that.

Except characters who are quite obviously fans of Lee style kung fu movies.

>>132929376
I don't see any fanboyism at all in that post. What's the problem with wanting a bit of change?

>NOBODY HAS FUN
this is what /v/ seriously believes.

Chie tried to befriend the new kid in school because you can count the number of friends she has on one hand with a few fingers missing.

>>132929376
I don't know. they just are.

>Trolling Persona 4

I see you hate masterpieces
Eat shit

Actually they do, but only the annoying fat ones who I'm pretty sure adapted it from this game and other shit beforehand.

>>132929418
But west games changes (even if it's for worse) just to get more money. Japanese make same shit for years.

>>132929501
There's plenty of variety. You would know that if you weren't a fucking moron. But there's no convincing people like you, every game with anime like graphics is the same to you.

>play a game about people fighting with demons inside a TV made by Atlus
>expect realistic characters

I guess you don't any autistic girls/ con goers

Lucky you

>Mfw I knew a girl who would shout "waaa-haaa" and do a weird pose in high school
She wasn't fat, weeaboo, or ugly.

>>132929418
But the Souls series wasn't over saturated in western themes. I'd like to see Japanese developers apply the same techniques, but a different style, or at least one not so heavy on the jap shit.

>>132929602
How is it unrealistic? Tell us.

>>132929598
Excuse me? I'm not op. I play just about everything with no prejudice whatsoever.

>>132929575
>eat shit
>but OP is already playing P4

Is that a dating sim?

still maxed her s. link and romanced her

You've just unleashed a shitstorm of incalculable size, OP.

Because it's representative of the whole game.

Everything is light hearted.

The game is literally scooby doo mystery time.

If you had listened to /v/ in the first place about it being like that you probably wouldn't have bought it.

I mean for fucks sake one of your teachers wears ancient egyptian garbs.

>>132928870
that's why this game is better than real life. Real girls are boring.

>>132928870
>Real girls don't do that. In fact, nobody fucking does that.
Your high school friends clearly weren't anywhere near as fun as mine were. Also, the character development in that game, from start to finish, is fantastic. It's too bad that you have a stick up your ass because you've never met a fun girl before and won't be able to appreciate it.

>>132929656
>I want to play jap games that are not like jap games.

>>132929598
Its not just the graphics, its the characters, dialogue and narrative. The narrative isn't too bad, but the characters and dialogue completely break it.

>not realizing Japan is fucking retarded and the West has always made better literature than anything the far east has come up with

Japanese art styles are the exact same across games using the same faggot stock characters and the same fucking gameplay. Nice place to live and visit but awful at making films and games.

>jap

stopped reading there

>>132929769
No, I want to play Japanese games that are not derivative of Japanese popular culture, especially one developed for adolescents.

>>132929575
>Persona 4
>Masterpiece


Hold on there, I nearly fucking died laughing.

>pick any japanese game
>it's like i'm watching shitty animu

every time

>>132929850
>nice place to live

obviously you don't know shit.

>>132929783
Thanks for proving me right.

>>132929876
every game is developed for adolescents

>>132929876
>I want to play Japanese games that are not derivative of Japanese popular culture

>>132929850
Have you even read a book from Asia?

Seriously /v/ the shit that dribbles out of your mouths is so uneducated and xenophobic.

>Not liking uguu kawaii
>Liking angsty grimdark crap like Dark Souls

So edgy xD

>>132929864
but you didn't, you read the entire thing and got angry because of it.

Why do you lie? Do you think people will actually believe that you did not get angry because someone else disagreed with you?

>>132929850
>saying something completely backwards like "Nice place to live and visit but awful at making films and games."
>using a picture of an American otaku to justify your dislike of Japan
This is what WRPG fans actually believe.

>>132929585
Nah, Dark Souls, Vanquish, Z.O.E., these games stand out a lot. You don't have to look at all the shit that gets infinite sequels like Mario, Sanic etc. Japan can make incredible games just as the west. The problem is that the japanese industry is much more productive than the western is so we tend to look at the games that get more advertisement or that are more popular than others.

Still waiting for OP to tell us how this is unrealistic.

>>132929757
>Your high school friends clearly weren't anywhere near as fun as mine were.

Seriously. I mean people in my class did stupid shits all the time we were fucking stupid teenagers having fun doing stupid shit jesus. Where the hell did you guys went to school? Some catholic school full of mormons and emo kids?

DARK SOULS IS SHIT!

>>132929953
>not liking grim dark serious works
>being a manchild and liking anything anime related or anime

OP, I believe you might have misunderstood normal socializing. People can, in fact, do funny things like crazy poses in public from time to time.

But I guess it's a waste trying to explain human interaction to you aspies.

And here comes the flood of generalizations and kneejerk EVERYTHING IS WEEABOO SHIT comments, spiced up by a couple edgy kids being uninformed and racist.

>>132930041

Are you TRYING to be a stereotypical 15 year old?

>>132930041
>implying liking grim dark serious shit isn't also for manchildren
Games are for manchildren for fucks sake.

>Thinking girls don't do stupid shit like that in class

Oh god OP how long has been since you went to school.

>Not knowing a chick that's a huge fan of kung-fu movies
Yeah, that's why you think no one does that, OP.

Good job OP

I couldn't stand the retarded weeaboo clusterfuck of P3 and P4's setting and characters as well.

LOL this thread

It's like /v/ is just filled with the shittiest, slimiest people who hate fun during this time of the day everytime I visit.
>Real girls don't do that. In fact, nobody fucking does that.
Were you homeschooled or something?

>>132928870
> In fact, nobody fucking does that.

>While in 11th and 12th grade, you never taught 9th graders how to do a hadouken
>2007
>ishiggydiggitydoo

I've never played the game

is this the "what's bruce lee's favorite drink" joke? If so then I and other people I know have done that in a crowded public space. It normally gets a laugh or two.

>>132928870
its the biggest reason I started to hate anime.

I can't stand unrealistic situations; like the COUNTLESS examples of misunderstanding that could be cleared up in one sentence if someone spoke up.

in the west we call that bad writing.

She likes kung fu movies so she's doing some moves she's seen while making Bruce Lee noises. I really don't see the problem.

If everyone acted "normal" she would just be a vapid cunt who talks about uninteresting bullshit. The point of a video game is that it is not real, it's a form of escapism.

>>132930247
Tell us how this scene is unrealistic. Tell us how a teenager being silly is unrealistic.

You can't. You just run your little mouth off.

>>132929850

Japan is the only thing in the world that prevents media from degenerating into a homogenous blob of grimdarkness.

>>132930247

You have a point, but

>the COUNTLESS examples of misunderstanding that could be cleared up in one sentence if someone spoke up.

That's very plausible for the Japanese.

>>132929137
just popping in to say I love what dark souls is on paper, even though I have never seen any actual gameplay.

>>132930247
>I can't stand unrealistic situations; like the COUNTLESS examples of misunderstanding that could be cleared up in one sentence if someone spoke up.
>unrealistic

I'm sorry but it's like you don't interact with people AT ALL.

If you didn't act completely nuts in high school, fuck off

>>132930097
Explain to me how the setting of Lawrence of Arabia would have been better had it not taken itself so seriously.

There is nothing wrong with works that take themselves seriously.

Quit being such a... child.

>>132930247
> like the COUNTLESS examples of misunderstanding that could be cleared up in one sentence if someone spoke up.

1. Japanese people
2. Have you ever watched american movies? Good lord that's like the biggest problem in so many of them. So many things could be avoided so easily, GOD DAMMIT ADAM SANDLER WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST SAY SOMETHING... Though I guess usually it's cause the woman is too busy being a dumb cunt.

>>132930343
HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


OH JESUS


OH GOD

YOU ARE ACTUALLY SERIOUS, AREN'T YOU?


HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

Because Japan doesn't have grim dark bullshit media and the west doesn't have light hearted and colorful media, Right?

>>132929932
Sorry if you haven't heard but Japs are good at making games. Does this mean they have to include kawaii uguu~ shit into everything? No. I know that's hard to understand seeing as you're one of the types who really enjoys the same four stock characters "popular" Japanese culture has been recycling for twenty years. You're one of the fat weaboo faggots who has been creating a demand for that and thus making it harder for something like Dark Souls to be made.

>>132930413
everybody thought you were a faggot and you didn't nearly shave enough tyler

>>132930469
I wish mods banned people who post like this.

you do understand that media creates interesting characters that couldn't possibly exist for the sole fact of showing us how potentially cool people could be if they actually tried

>>132930521
I wish the mods banned retards like you, but we can't live in a perfect world can we?

I dunno about you guys, but personally I prefer my kawaii uguu characters over Workout McLifterson in all my games.

>>132930441

There's a difference between a work taking itself seriously and being overwrought grimdark shit, which is what's almost always brought up as a superior alternative to anything colorful and light-hearted.

>>132930479
>has no argument and just recycles idiot insults
>thinks Dark Souls isn't a rehash of Demon Souls and Kings Field before that and that it isn't something being recycled for over a decade

>>132930469
>>132930441

STOP MAKING STORIES THAT TAKE THEMSELVES SERIOUSLY

YOU FUCKING PRETENTIOUS PRICKS

>>132930479
>Same stock characters

Right cause a kung-fu loving Bruce Lee fangirl, a Perverted bear mascot and a badass biker guy who loves to sew and has gender issues are such the norm

>>132930575
shit someone just got TOLD. XD

>>132930441

Are you fucking stupid? Not EVERYTHING has to be serious.

"HURR I ONLY LIKE SERIOUS THINGS FOR MATURE PEOPLE SUCH AS MYSELF"

Fucking grow up.

>dat weeaboo defense force

>>132930413
>people hating this because it's realistic an using this Persona 4 scene as an example
>ignoring Diving into the TV, meeting Teddie, unlocking your persona, which happen to be depictions of actual Mythos and Lore from the real world which is being overlooked by a god that is indifferent about existance yet itself continues to exists and is pushing this idea onto 'those that cannot clearly comprehend it'

Finish the goddamn game.

>>132930664
Hey, man still waiting for you to tell us how the scene in OP pic is unrealistic.

>>132930469
>using the Argument From Intimidation logical fallacy of just laughing like a donkey instead of making an actual counter-point

Of course they don't OP. That's why we replace reality with vidya you fucking moron.

Too many of you people are underaged, faggot normal people now.

>This thread
Jesus tapdancing christ /v/, this shit isn't that big of a goddamn deal, pull that stick out of your ass once in a while.

>>132930327
less unrealistic, more implausible or unrelatable.

has the same effect on your involvement in what you're watching, unless you're autistic and just eat it up no matter what.

Fun fact: I ALWAYS drop a game if it has a bald white male lead. That shit NEVER has original plot lines.

>>132930752

of course it isn't a big deal, only OP is complaining, other people are talking about it

>>132930445
this is why adam sandler comedies are as stupid as anime.

like I said, in the west, we call that bad writing.

>>132930762
>less unrealistic, more implausible or unrelatable.
How so? You can't just use these words on their buddy. Again, tell us how this behaviour for a 15 year old girl is unrealistic.

If you can't, that's okay. Would be nice if you could just admit that, but we know you won't.

>>132928870
I agree there are a lot of unrealistic situations in Japanese games, but this isn't one of them. Just teenagers being teenagers.

>>132930762
>realistic
video games

>implausible
>unrelatable
did you never go to high school?

Like really I have a feeling no one went to high school in this thread.

>>132930762
Confirmed to have had almost no interaction with other people growing up. Of course you find it unrelateable, you have no friends, or at least no interesting ones. The rest of us find it relateable because we all knew someone who would do silly stuff like that growing up.

>>132930629
It's like saying me3 endings were different because of the color. Japs make same cardboard characters over and over again. And pushing those gay uguu mascots in every game too.

>>132930752

It's the new wave of high school kids who are in their angsty "I'm more mature than you are" phase.

>>132930712
there ARE people who do this
the fat unkempt lesbians who found anime clubs
they do it

>>132930968
Nope, being silly is not exclusive to otaku. Keep on crying bitch ass nugga.

>>132930632
Why do you insult me? I was asking a serious question that you failed to answer

All the casualfags in this thread are going nuts saying that shit that takes itself seriously is bad and would be better if it was goofier and crazier.

Would Schindler's List be better were there more comedy? Like maybe a wacky scene at a concentration camp? I don't get it. I honestly don't. Not everything has to be a joke or goofy.

Quit being a faggot please.

>>132930876
I guess you think most everything is bad writing, huh? If you really mean to tell me that you've never seen a movie where poor communication was the cause of a big problem, I'd be shocked. If you said you have and never liked ANY of them, I'd be shocked.

Oh and also clearly you've never interacted with anyone. Poor communication is actually a thing that happens.

>>132930712
Who cares if this is realistic, the problem is they put this shit in every game.

>>132930950
Please tell us atleast 5 characters exactly like Kanji. Go on, if he's a stock character in every jap game it should be easy for you.

>he didn't go to a school where girls shout "HWA-TAAA and do a weird pose in semi-crowded classrooms

I hope you enjoyed your shit childhood OP.

>THIS IS UNREALISTIC AND UNREASONABLE GIRLS DONT SAY THINGS AND MAKE POSES

>Plays fantasy and unrealistic sci-fi games.

My head is full of fuck.

>>132931059

No one fucking said that. People are just saying that not everything has to take itself seriously. Get some fucking reading comprehension.

>>132930876
News flash. Even the most celebrated works of fiction relied on tension caused by misunderstandings. Shakespeare and Oedipus and Medea say hi.

OP would have been more successful if he had posted Yukiko, since she is garbage.

>>132930878
nice reading comprehension, I said it was unrelatable, not unrealistic.

I look at something like that, and I feel like I'm being pandered to with attempts at cuteness.

we're talking about a subjective topic, so I don't have to justify it further than that.

>people hating on persona 4

This board has gone straight to shit.

>>132931217

nobody actually hates it you dense fuck

>>132931217
No, it goes straight to shit every day about 9:00AM EST. Before that it's great.

>>132928870
>expecting realism from a game about demon-fighting Purse Owners

>>132931086
Suddenly, the argument changes!

Also, every game is a stretch. I won't argue with you about Neptunia and Ar Tonelico and other games like that, but god damn, Persona is not typical kawaii anime bullshit like all those. It most certain SCREAMS "I AM JAPANESE GAME" but other than that, other than the handful of just silly things that happen (better not have ANYTHING goofy in my video games, right?) the game is very NOT anime bullshit.

>>132931253
It's like you just walked into the thread and skipped straight to the bottom.

>>132931253

That's not what I'm fucking reading

>>132930876

Misunderstandings happen, a lot. And japanese is a language more prone to them than English, for example due to lower usage of pronouns.

>>132931198
yeah, and a good writer will make a misunderstanding complicated enough that its plausible that it wouldn't be resolved in one sentence.

anime falls flat on its face in this regard CONSTANTLY.

>>132931209
>I said it was unrelatable, not unrealistic.

Geez, look, there's that word "unrealistic" that you claimed that you didn't use. Do you want me to screencap your post before you go and delete it?

>>132931198

>medea

>>132931380
Red herring, much? We're not talking about how you hate anime, we're talking about Persona 4. You wanna give me an example of this supposed scenario that happens all the time? Like, just one example? Should be easy since it's so common.

>>132931380
Way to backtrack there buddy. First you went on a declaration that using misunderstandings is just bad writing. Now you say its ok if its written well.

>Real girls don't do that. In fact, nobody fucking does that.
Bwa ha ha.
How naive do you have to be?
"Nobody would do something that stupid."
A ha ha, oh god.
Well, pfft ha ha...
Well, at least no one can blame you for being cynical.
Bwa ha ha...

>>132931412
the word unrealistic, which I used to specify that it was NOT my chosen adjective for the topic under discussion.

see, this is why I mention reading comprehension.
now you've just embarrassed yourself.

its also hilarious that you're getting this mad white-knighting for anime, but that's another story.

>start Persona 4
>2 hours in
