Oh what absolute joy this brought me this day

Heck yeah more Clemps! KH3 video when?

I should clarify. Wappa's a girl.

I've almost bought this off espoo every time I go onto it but I just wasn't sure.

Alright, you've convinced me. I get paid in 2 days, so imma buy this game.

The important part was that the child died

@@jmarra07 so true, we must keep that in mind always

@@jmarra07 for naught... Q_q

@@jmarra07 Le military industrial complex in a nutshell, amrite fellas? 😂 (😭)

Better use him as su*c*d* bomber nex time. Way more effective, because nobody would ever suspect a child.

Agreed. I mean Asura's Wrath was and still is one of my favorite games of all time and I'm still hoping for a remastered version some day

I miss .hack

I think it's more of an issue with Bandai Namco that they aren't doing as much original IP these days and this is partially why they self published Fuga and have 2 more games planned in what they call their "Vengeance" trilogy. In Q and As with Matsuyama when a remaster original 4 games or a continuation of .hack is brought up he is constantly saying "Go tell Bandai Namco that," so the fault is obviously with the publisher in this regard. I also think that Asura's Wrath's poor sales figures and the BS way Capcom handled the DLC for that game soured the company on working with other publishers. I'm happy their taking matters into their own hands and self publishing games like Fuga instead of relying on a bigger publisher. They might be more budget titles but they've got a lot of heart behind them and if they can keep up the quality it'll be worth looking forward to their next original IP.

Reminds me of how FromSoft is known for the crap that is Dark Souls and not Armored Core and the like. It really sucks

​@@jamescarter6468 I haven't played an Armored core game yet, but I would like them to do another one or a spiritual successor, much like they did a spiritual successor to Tenchu with Sekiro, after they release Eldin Ring. I also would like to see a sequel or spiritual successor to Lost Kingdoms as the action RPG card combat was very unique in that series, definitely way better than how Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories handled it. I can just imagine summoning monsters with an updated card combat system with the current visual style of From Software for a game like that and having a lot of fun with it. Also I think the reason why both CyberConnect2 and From Software are kind of type cast developers is thanks to Bandai Namco's influence. They only pay for what is popular and don't let the developers branch out as much. I think this is why From went to Activision for Sekiro and why CC2 is trying to self publish. I hope they can both branch out more and do some more interesting stuff outside of what they're known for.

I thought the same thing! Never played the game myself but I’ve seen screenshots and heard good things despite its niche following. Might give that game and this one a try eventually.

If you have a copy of Solotarobo youre very lucky. That game got super rare and expensive.

@@ComicCrossing have both the game in-box and the physical soundtrack

@@EmporerEmblem Damn

"children losing their innocence in the perils of war" will do that

How is SMT V?.

It's getting a sequel luckily

@@Revealingstorm. for real!!!???

@@kyburn6195 yeah it has a steam page up already

@@Revealingstorm. that's amazing thanks!

Hooray for word of mouth and the "Questionable" side of the internet for getting people to buy this game!

Plus it canonically make sense since Solatorobo also has French quips spoken by Japanese VAs.

​@@heardofrvbAnd it was glorious

That is actually very interesting lol

Im french and Ill follow your advice

And the Japanese is just "inuhito". Dog Person.

@Grima the Fell Dragon Sad thing, they just seem to lack budget for marketing (at least, as self publishers), they actually announced Fuga alongside two other games (not related to the Tail Bronx world, tho. Fully original IPs), which for a while got marketed as the "Trilogy of Revenge" due to their theming, though Fuga was the further in development, and even then got delayed. I haven't heard any news of the other titles since, and I was actually following them short after the announcement! To be honest, I barely got to be aware of Fuga being actually finish and ready to go to stores, just a few weeks before release.

This time they self-published, they really need to get a better grasp on marketing. They didn't even get a page on Steam until the week before release. That's something even indies figured out to do early and promote often.

FUGA: Melodies of steel 2 is coming out soon, by the way :)

Yeah, I agree. I'm not what you'd call a card-carrying furry, either (more like furry adjacent? At the very least animal anthropomorphism rarely bothers me any, so when it's applied to something I would otherwise like, I can still enjoy it.) So it makes me sad that a lot of the, often extreme, dislike for furries seems to have stemmed from the fandom being able to keep to the idea of "no throwing stones in glass houses" better than most "outcast" subcultures. Like they were already somewhat ostracized just for liking anthro stuff, but while groups of that type do tend to be more accepting of people that are rejected by the mainstream for other reasons, it doesn't happen to nearly as much a degree as you'd expect, or, at least, not as much as you'd hope. Just look at how gatekeepy most need groups can be. But furries seemed to take it to heart even more than most, so they accepted a lot more people with interest that most people would think of as "weird" or "gross" instead of rejecting them or trying to shame them into silence. So with a higher proportion of people with more extreme interests alongside an interest that a lot of people already found somewhat strange or uncomfortable, furries got an even worse rep. Especially since, for a long time, the first and only times a person was likely to encounter any one of a number of the more extremely niche kinks was amongst furries, since that was the only time and place those with said kinks were allowed to be open about them. So furries got heavily associated with weird kinks. Plus the fandom was heavily focused on making art, which is much easier for outsiders to encounter and appraise in large quantities, than, say, fanfic or fangames, and those outside looking in cared more about showing each other only the "worst" or "weirdest" examples to point and either laugh or stare aghast at. So furries became strawmen of themselves.

Sadly this is entirely true I suggested this game to my friend and he replied with "I don't want to play WW2 with furries"

@@RustyArgonianKnight that isn't "furry hate". Animal stuff also has a juvenile association. And to some people it's not even appealing.

It's not that people hate furries. It's that furries made it sexual, and like even a sexuality. So it's hard to avoid the association. Though I've never liked talking animal media. Which is why I've been watching reviews for like over a year, switching it in and out of my wishlists. I don't know how much you can blame people for having awareness of furries. And associating furry characters with them. Though I don't even know how much it's true since there's still talking animal stuff around. Though this has a dozen other things working against it to make it niche. Not flaws, but niche.

@@DSan-kl2yc You cannot catagorize an entire group of people that are into something as a hobby, it is strictly impossible.

I immediately searched the comments after seeing the "twist" to see if someone mentioned it! I really hope it's not as depresisng as Bokurano tho haha

Wow a Ar Tonelico pfp! Another game nobody ever talks about haha

@@tj8815 I'm surprised Clemps hasn't tried them, since he likes Gust games so much.

@@Mir_Teiwaz I remember years ago i wrote on his Patreon feed that these games might really be up his alley. Got my copies of them on a flee market more than a decade after their release and fell in love with the soundtrack and characters

Fuga 2 has been announced!!!

The first spoiler timestamp, that is.

How did I miss that every single time? ;_; I'm real sorry! I'll add a corrected version in the pinned comment!

@@Clemps No worries, the spoiler didnt' bother me b/c I already knew. Just wanted to get out ahead of it for those it will matter to!

@@jmporkbob I actually went into the YT editor to remove that bit :) people skipping ahead later will go slightly further ahead, but its better than the alternative! Thanks again for bringing it to my attention!

@@Clemps you da man!

That is literally ALL I wanted from this, this game looks fantastic but the thought of being required to sacrifice anybody, especially *children* to complete the game definitely feels upsetting.

I feel like they could have shortened the game somehow then? It may be too much work, but if you just want to give people extra lore and the good ending, making them grind through the whole game seems a bit much.

@@Healermain15 the games actually pretty easy if you're able to manage your resources correctly.

@@whotookmypuddingcup4131 "The games easy if you don't fuck it up" dosen't..really sound like it's an admission of difficulty but of the players personal intelligence. Not saying that's what your doing, just an observation

@@ariannadravis3934 to be fair, it isn't hard even then, but I *am* playing on new game plus rn because SOMEONE decided to- *censored due to spoilers and language not suitable for a youtube comment section* But uh sorry bout that :(
