I don't know if Spike Chunsoft is the dumbest name for a game developer or the best name for a game developer.

best, same with dangan ronpa
Danganronpa is an amazing name and makes hella sense.
Dangan means 'Bullet'
Ronpa means 'Rebutal'
And this game is about refuting arguments by shooting truthbullets.
Fucking love it.

It's how terrorism was born.
What drives me really mad about Monokuma is, that there ain't any good figurines of him to buy. Like wtf man, the one single, time i want to buy a figure as deco there ain't one.
The only thing available is some shitty nendroid and a chiaki one that is too lewd for me as i don't want to give up completely on dates.

Bought it, keys weren't swapped.
Thanks! Stupid IndieGala who can't make their job correctly :/

Danganronpa games were worth buying a Vita for. I liked 1 more than 2 though.

Whew.
Just beat The Pursuer (DS2).
He wasn't too bad once I figured out his tells. Problem is the small arena size and 2-3 hits = death.

I'm counting on that because it's one of the main reasons I just bought a Vita. Now waiting for a friend to ship his copies over to me. Starting out on a new platform from scratch is an expensive affair to say the least.

Like various Visual Novels it feels as if it starts slow but this is the way the game eases you into its setting and characters.
From there it starts going south for the characters real fast

With the sales sony has been doing on PSN you can build up a library really fast.
Gravity Rush has been on sale for less than $1 for example and it's one of the best games on the system. Uncharted went for $3.50 recently.
PSone and PSP classics become dirt cheap with a good discount.
P4G, for many the best game on the Vita, is constantly on sale, sometimes hitting $15. Insane value.
Wait for the PSN Christmas sale to grab stuff.

That's cool. There's no way I'm going to put it down after hearing so many good things about it over the years. Plus I'm a huge fan of Spike Chunsoft after playing 999 last year and VLR earlier this summer.

I'm gonna have a shitty day today.
Right now I'm just browsing the net to distract myself but I'm going to court later today.
It's a really long story but basically I did something that isn't legal to help out a bunch of people and also save the company I was working for at the time. It was supposed to work out in the end and resolve itself without actually becoming an issue but alas, it didn't, and now I have to answer for it.
I've spent every second of the last 10 months thinking about this moment. My lawyer said it's nothing to get so worked up about but I'm the kind of person who is always dwelling on his problems and imagining the absolute worse case scenarios for everything.
So wish me luck guys.

What is this?
Windows Store movideals for firstclass americans.
Ooooh... Trainwreck. Must watch.
Translation from Japanese to English for some games is probably expensive...
Well got a reply that was more coherent than I thought from Ubisoft support regards to a few issues with AC Syndicate. Though those of you hoping for a simple 'fix' to cloth physics/animations I wouldn't hold your breath. I'd also send in a support ticket yourself to exacerbate the issue as I get the feeling from the answer I got this is going to take a couple more messages and a bit more explaining but hope the answer I got isn't what I think it means.
Good Luck! Hopefully everything goes opposite to your "worst case scenarios".
Even if it is this expensive, I'm not sure they are getting their money back with their price and game looking as it does any time soon.
Then again, I never understood VN prices.

real life has shit graphics anyways
But the graphics is hilarious
I wouldn't be getting a VN game, unless it's in a bundle. But even then the other games must be worth getting.

Thanks!
Those shots don't look good. It looks like somebody went crazy with unsharp mask.
Don't worry. Worst case, we'll bring you the oranges.
I wonder if the game is tightly locked down (I didn't check), since thanks to currency conversions and the first week discount it's kinda cheap here and there.
More than anything, those 4 sample shots just look ultra sharpened to me.

I think this might have something to do with an answer to your question

The made 4x what they were asking for on Kickstarter so I'm pretty sure their costs are already covered. Licensing for VA and music on Japanese game translation is a complicated and expensive affair. There's just no way around these things.
That looks pretty lousy. Just keep sharpening the image and it suddenly looks like real life? Sheesh.
I just checked, it doesn't have region specific apps, but cross region trading and gifting is disabled, so it doesn't matter anyway.
oh, that explains it!
wait...
So basically they think that as they already got all the money they needed, they can price it whatever, who cares?
edited: I'm just curious, was there an additional goal of redoing all artwork and how much that was if that's the case?

Yes, they can price it whatever because they are the ones who get to choose what their work is worth. And you are free to make your purchasing decision based on whether you agree with their assessment.
But your sarcasm is absurd. You feel it should be cheaper because it was Kickstarted so "they already got all the money they needed"? Why not just ask for it to be free then? Is that how you imagine crowdfunding should work?

I think its not SP who sets the price. Having worked with japanese publishers I kinda think it was them that wants to set the price that high.
I mean they still wanted to add physical DRM till SP discussed it with them and proposed against that idea.

Was it posted that the page for the Indivisible Prototype is now reachable on Steam?
Ooh, neat.
Of course it's their choice, my sarcasm was directed at releasing the game in current state and pricing like it's a brand new game, when their kickstarter was very successful. You are free to disagree with me, of course, but there is nothing absurd about my statement, have you seen how it looks?
Crowdfunding should work in a way that lets devs to make good games while people vote with their wallets and help it to happen. I don't see what that has to do with ridiculous price for one poor region, not at all.
Then again, it's an empty talk as I'm not buying it in a current state and for this price, I was just expressing my shock at seeing that price, these are forums, we share opinions here, you know.
from customer's perspective, there is not much difference who does this stuff, result is the same and it still doesn't help anybody, including them, especially additional DRMs, but I guess people won't stop doing or trying anyway
an account? Don't you mean a region too?
I can actually rent and watch movies from MS Store. My MS account is set to US.
Yeap that too. I forgot because English(US) is my default region setup since forever XD
But strange thing is that there is no registered purchase on my PayPall still.
