Game journalism did good asking those questions

 

[Gasian]

sounds great can't wait to see it tomorrow, when they show it to the public

 

[traveler]

The game looks exactly how it was described. Maybe some of you guys were expecting a more fire emblem-eastern type of art style, dunno.

They were expecting Mignola.

 

[Madn]

Every time someone gets called out about game similarities, it's somehow never an inspiration.

Yeah, while taking inspiration from great games is actually a good thing

 

[insignia16]

SMTxFE not cancelled!

WOO!

 

[jmizzal]

Michael "TYP" Cole:
Q: Has this impacted development on the FExSMT game. A: nonononono. They are on schedule.

Now people can stop freaking out

 

[jman2050]

Do any of you truly honestly give a shit what this game looks like?

 

[Rich!]

Does anyone else find it odd that the attachment used to connect the 3DS display to projectors/screens on the show floor of E3 2014 looks very simple?

Is the hardware different, or could these hookups work on unmodded consumer models? Just curious if anyone has knowledge of this, it's interesting Nintendo chooses not to release it as an extension, but I could see why given production cost and firmware upgrades along with it depreciating the WiiU gamepad.

It's different hardware. Dev kit has video out.

And it's a pretty hefty mod, not for consumers. There is a homebrew equivalent, but it's around £300.

 

[Kansoku]

This went from huge hype to meh in just a few seconds.

 

[Scoops]

My guess is SMT/FE is a early 2016 game and too early to be shown off. It was announced early 2013 but it was literally just a teaser. Who knows if it was even in full development yet. 2.5-3 years for such a crossover may not be much of a stretch

 

[roknin]

Nintendo: "New IP, black character, a woman and a Lion..."
People complaining about everything: "..."

I laughed way too hard at this.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Can't wait for the trailer.

 

[daydream]

I have good news: this game has been playable for the past 14 years.

Took the words out of my mouth.

 

[Terrible_Majesty]

I feel like this maybe too much into one game. Kind of like Spider-Man 3. Also

Nintendo aren't supposed to cater their games to what we want. They should simply tell us what we want. They dictate we realize that yes! We like that.

Wish it was on Wii U instead. But we'll see from the Treehouse presentation tomorrow

 

[slit]

GIVE US NEW GAMES FFS

WTF IS THIS SHIT WE WANTED MAJORA'S MASK

FUCK Majora's Mask. We don't need anymore godamn remakes.

 

[Immaculate]

The game looks exactly how it was described. Maybe some of you guys were expecting a more fire emblem-eastern type of art style, dunno.

...I was

 

[thecouncil]

Well really what is gained by doing it this way? Why not just stream it out for everyone following these announcements?

Well, theyre doing that tomorrow, at least. Better than the typical year which would be: "Wait for a Direct, maybe."

 

[catmario]

Oh, finished.

Gameplay looks really cool.

 

[amnesiac]

This went from huge hype to meh in just a few seconds.

.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Now people can stop freaking out

They are on schedule to be cancelled!

 

[Regiruler]

SMTxFE could be anywhere from "show at TGS" level to "The Last Guardian" level. I remain cautious even though I don't really care much for the title.

 

[scy]

Do any of you truly honestly give a shit what this game looks like?

Slightly.

But not enough for it to matter if the gameplay is what it sounds like it is.

Edit: That said, it looks exactly as I expected it would (though I thought less vibrant colors for some reason). Curious to see it in motion.

 

[Lunar15]

Fuck ALL the haters.

I'M SO HYPED RIGHT NOW.

 

[m_shortpants]

I have good news: this game has been playable for the past 14 years.

I was looking forward to playing it at more than 17fps

 

[Volotaire]

Freedom Force aesthetic LIVES!

 

[Neiteio]

The game looks exactly how it was described. Maybe some of you guys were expecting a more fire emblem-eastern type of art style, dunno.

The devs said the art was inspired by Jack Kirby and Mike Mignola, but I'm not really seeing that here.

I mean, at most, the environments -kind of- look like Mignola.

 

[Omzz]

yeah looking at screens is a much accurate way of judging rather than a video

 

[Delstius]

Welp, art direction looks weird to say the least. Hope the gameplay will be good.

 

[JasonUresti]

evocative of Irrational Games' Freedom Force aesthetically.

Freedom Force was a direct aping for 60's comic books, specifically Marvel's Jack Kirby.

 

[Rich!]

I have good news: this game has been playable for the past 14 years.

At 18fps max in 320p resolution

Brilliant. Majoras Mask is long overdue an upgrade like OOT got, especially when MM is the better game.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

nintendo made turn-based strategy games (with permadeath) many years before xcom existed

Only by a year. X-Com originally came out in 1991, the first FE was 1990.

 

[THEAnderson21]

Looks good to me. Really looking forward to seeing it in motion.

 

[MilesTeg]

On schedule for SMT x FE = 2014 right guys?

Spoiler

Believe

 

[fredrancour]

Cool. Confirmation they just announced FExSMT way too damn early.

At least all of the new 2015 announcements so far have had some actual content shown.

 

[bounchfx]

not a fan of the graphics, dang

 

[Delio]

Can't wait for the trailer.

Same.

Also the screens dont turn me off from the game. I love IS and I trust them to make a really interesting game.

 

[Uncle Rupee]

This went from huge hype to meh in just a few seconds.

But if it plays sorta like Valkyria Chronicles, that's a good thing.
It's a good thing that Nintendo is taking risks on new IPs. It's even better that they're doing something so radically different in terms of art direction.

3DS screens usually look pretty bad. I want to see it moving.

 

[Draconian]

SMTxFE could be anywhere from "show at TGS" level to "The Last Guardian" level. I remain cautious even though I don't really care much for the title.

The game was announced last year. Why on earth are we comparing it to The Last Guardian? Please continue dishing out the ridiculous comparisons.

 

[Francokid1]

A whole page of VALKYRIA CHRONICLES made people forget that this is a 3ds game

 

[Riposte]

Alright, tomorrow they are going to be showing a lot of this game, by then the hype will cool off and I can think rationally.

 

[injurai]

So where was that new Miyamoto game?

 

[Mortemis]

This game sounds great, the artstyle doesn't deter me as much as others.

Can't wait to see some gameplay.

 

[anchorman128]

If you guys feel like moving on to a more offical thread, I created an announcement thread (with a fucked up title that hasn't been changed yet, PLEASE HELP MODS). OP has been updated to the best of my ability, let me know if anything is incorrect, I was updating it as we got info.

I'm shocked to see so many people get hyped about the gameplay and then stop caring because of the artstyle, it looks cool.

 

[Kaljinyu]

Was Chuggaaconroy at that thing?

How does he keep getting invited to Nintendo's things? Maybe I should do LPs.

 

[Blue Ranger]

This went from huge hype to meh in just a few seconds.

So graphics>everything?

Great

 

[Hex]

Art style really puts a huge damper on it to me, game play needs to be god tier.
Looks like some android/ios hand off.
Valkyria Chronicles my ass.

 

[blast processed]

The devs said the art was inspired by Jack Kirby and Mike Mignola, but I'm not really seeing that here.

I mean, at most, the environments -kind of- look like Mignola.

Maybe it's through the comic book style cutscenes.

 

[Totakeke]

Yup, reminds me of Freedom Force from the screenshots. Not a bad thing at all.


I think most people are disappointed because the game looks a bit like shovelware from a no-name western developer.
