its very good

PC port when?

In my dreams apparently

I'd like to replay it with someone other than dwarf but i'm too fucking lazy to unpack/hook up my PS3

as someone who never played this game.
how much replayability does it have?
how's the online, it's laggy?

It's just not the same without sound.

>how much replayability does it have?

a fuck ton

You start off by completing all the areas by yourself because online is locked until after

devs wanted all players to be familiar with the game systems before they played with each other

there's different routes within areas that will take you to different areas/bosses

there's 6 different classes

there's several difficulties

and there was a surprising amount of post launch support but I didn't keep up with it

some extremely high level or endless dungeon for dedicated players or something

It's a play style similar to diablo series
grind out gear to take on higher difficulties
repeat forever or until bored

Online was pretty good
no idea how populated it would be now
A PC port to ensure an online community even if for a small while would be ace

And the default narrators VA is superb

>as someone who never played this game, how much replayability does it have?
A metric fuckton. Each character plays immensely different and the game might as well be unbeatable given how to even access the tower of mirages (50,000 plus floors endgame) you need to beat the game on all 3 difficulties and then 99 floors of the randomized dungeons.

it sounds fucking nice.
I'm getting it.
i watched some gameplay but it's too much shit happening in the screen at the same time, so i came here to ask.

>randomized dungeons.
Now we're talkin'

>i watched some gameplay but it's too much shit happening in the screen at the same time,

That's part of the benefit to being locked out of online. Less clutter on the screen so you can get the hang of it

Dragons Crown II when?

probably never

It did take 10+ years for the first game to get green lit.

...

that elf

wait, what are you talking about?

15 years actually

George has been trying to make his D&D game since the Dreamcast days, I think it got cancelled twice.

Vanillaware has not to date made any direct sequels to their games

personally i'm ok with this

I like to see them tackle new ideas and settings

even if it means we'll never see DC 2 or another Muramasa game

BUT AN EXPANSION
VANILLAWARE PLEASE

A port to PC/PS4 would be a fine opportunity to add some extra characters and stages like with the Muramasa port to vita

I wish I had a girlfriend with a body like Sorceress.

Holy shit
That's impressive
Did dragon's crown sell well?

Yes, despite the press hating everything it represents (Japanese games)

The press hating on the anime titties made it sell even better.

IIRC they seemed pretty happy about the sales
It was also their first game with a budget of over 1 million dollars

that press probably contributed to its sales by putting it in the spotlight

The Dwarf is enough for me to buy it. God he was so fucking hot to fap to

I'd buy a second copy and make a 4th amazon.

>contributed to its sales by putting it in the spotlight
>The press hating on the anime titties made it sell even better.

this is truth, my first contact with this game was pics of the amazon.

Not as good as Vanilla's other games but still pretty good. The cooking mini-game is literally goat though

I swear to god if you Elfs put one more point in deadly boots

Having played the Odin Sphere remake and then going back to Dragon's Crown, boy that game could've benefitted from the same kind of mini map that OS used, where all you can see are the bare geometries and animations without textures. Would've made playing the game less of a hassle.

It's shit. Go play Code of Princess instead.

Yeah.

What a ride that whole debacle ended up being

The entire game is made for pedos and lolicons.

In my opinion it was a pretty poor design decision to have all the really game changing shit gear locked in ultra high level update content.

There should have been shittier versions of all that stuff with unique modifiers available early on.

The best part is the end result was Vanillaware's most popular and successful game of all time.

still would

There's a lot of downtime between levels, there's not a lot of levels and it expects you to replay them over and over to make up for that.

Handheld origins are transparent in areas like the simplicity of the main town.

Mechanically it's quite good, dodges and quickslots out the ass, but the physical classes's skills are usually passive or item-based which isn't great.

Overall, p. fun but room for improvement.

Man, does that rustle my jimmies.

>being btfo'd that hard
Did that faggot ever offer any substantial counterargument to that post, or did it just amount to 'muh feefees'?

Jesus, what was the rebuttal to that slam dunk?

That version of cortana is my favorite one.

It's sad that people can't look past a realistic womans body.

...

Permanent Banning

I should have guessed. Granted, there's not much you can do when you get btfo'd that hard other than hope to deflect.

>Hey Guys, this is going to be the last update
>Have this new difficulty, new endless dungeon and we also increased the level cap from 99 to 255
>Also another Elf nerf, again, lol

On the topic of Dragon's Crown, what monster still has yet to be paired with a girl?
I was thinking of getting some lewds drawn for Halloween.

Never. Vanillaware doesn't really do the whole PC thing.

>mfw even with elf nerfed she's still easy damage

They recently mention an interest in PC releases
It would depend on the publisher though

operationrainfall.com/2015/10/25/vanillaware-exploring-pc-releases-games/

I hope you know that's PR talk to it's probably not going to happen. That statement was made almost a year ago and we still haven't heard anything about it since.

She's the only one that good that many nerfes.
And while Amazon isn't a invincible tornado of fast anymore, she's still pretty crazy

Yes I love this game, my only gripe with it is that it's not set up for multplayer all that well.

When I say that I mean that the menu system sucks. You all have to individually pick up quests and hand them in each, the same for repairs and so on.

Other than that, it's a shitload of fun and I recommend getting three friends and playing locally on the PS3 like I did.

>fan’s inquiry on his personal Facebook page
>PR talk

???

If there was no interest there was no need to answer

It comes down to budget/time from the pub

not a guarantee but a possibility

>president of the company drew fillia
A truly based man.

i love dragons crown to death, but dont fool your self in to thinking it will stray from walking left or right (usually walking to the right)

its just random enemies and bosses with random backdrops

well it's something.
God damnit, a reedition with 2 new characters or a little depth layer for the existing ones.
And more enemies and dungeons.

I nominate Thief and Cleric

isn't the elf supposed to be somekind of thief/rogue?
a werewolf or something like that would be cool
but we already have Melee tank/damage dealer/balance

pretty fun, would have enjoyed it a lot more if it ditched all the shitty RPG elements and was just a standard beat em up you played start to finish.

Yeah, even I'm having trouble trying to fit those two and other classes in.
I would imagine Cleric would hit weaker than Fighter does, but she would be able to heal directly and have another way of supporting the group. Turn/Destroy Undead would be her ultimate spell.
Thief would be just fun to rack up combos and increase spoil drops even more.
Elf I still have yet to play

It's great. But I think it takes too long to level up. By the time I got to level 100 I was burnt out.

So I take it all the monsters have been paired up?

damn if i had drawing skills.

Is there a scan of the complete, non-preorder artbook yet?

>tfw pick it up on my playstation tv and play it for a few hours
>haven't touched it since

I really enjoyed it, but I haven't gone back to it since. Dungeons get cooler later, right?

You get to revisit and pick a different path in dungeons later.
It's pretty ballin'

saved, I love it when game ''journalists'' get torn down by people with actual passion and talent. What a fucking hollow, pathetic profession.

the user interface singlehandedly tarnished what would have been a gauntlet-tier co-op legend
it was a fantastic game but god damn it is a bitch to play this co-op with more than 1 other person

>Elf will never leg-lock you until you came into her
What a shit life. Anyway, her backstab skill is pretty strong.

>those frame drops on vita

Its shit

>people changing equipment
>people buying shit
>cooking on the fucking PS3
>cooking with lag
>Vita's framerate

>As of July 2014, worldwide sales of the game reached 940,000 copies

surely it's hit a mil by now? PS4 release pls

ps4 owners don't buy niche japanese titles

>my gf has small tits and doesn't even know magic
fuck my life

It's the same way I feel about FromSoft's newer games. Their non-sequels are much better and more interesting.

I like both DaS II and III (can't wait for the dlc) but they are both MUCH less interesting to me than Demon's Souls and Bloodborne.

Yes. The game is amazing. It was probably one of the very few beat em ups to come out recently as well.

>very few
It's an extremely popular genre in indie circles.

This made George Kamitani one of my vidya favourites, and Vanillaware one of my favourite studios. I love all their games.

Code of Princess is just a worse Dragon's Crown though.

...

Nah, I actually think that's fucking cool, I love for there to be insensitives like that.

Spreading it across the lower difficulty levels would just make their aspects background noise.

>handheld origins

Uhhh.

Wasn't that the last E3 he went to because Kotaku was blacklisted, i'm sure i remember him BAAAAAAWing about it on twitter.

God fucking damn. He even admits to doubling down despite his logic being proven utterly wrong. Typical nu-male journo. Even more laughable is that he brings up the equally disproven theory that video games cause violence.

Man, could your ideas be any less relevant?

Whatever happened to that faggot claiming , he got a response from Kaminati saying there's gonna be Vanillaware on PC?

I remember him sperging out a lot on twitter when people called him out on it. Even made a reddit account, which apparently had every post he made deleted, because he couldn't keep it together.

atleast this game will not be forgotten due to it's unique style.

A year ago Vanillaware said they were looking into it. No word since then though.

I hope it happens because my PS3 broke.

What's George's next project?
Last I heard he was planning on something sci-fi themed.

youtu.be/mV_RfdxpVOU

I want to press Start.

>A port to PC/PS4 would be a fine opportunity to add some extra characters and stages like with the Muramasa port to vita
I'd love to replay it on PS4 because it would actually re-ignite the online.

God damn I want Vanillaware games on PC but Fatlus seems to hate PC with a passion so I doubt it'll ever happen. Gotta grab a PS4Slim one of these days I guess.

If it was ported to pc,
how long would it take to edit in lewd sprites?

Nigga, YOUR frame rate drops. DC on my Vita runs like butter.

Seeing how they aren't 3D models like Dead or Alive probably a bit longer than usual

but it would happen guaranteed

Aside from the lewd edits, what kind of alternate costumes would you like to see?
I'd like to see Amazon go with the stereotypical loincloth and leather bra.

Amazon with shorts tank top and tennis

Sorceress dressed as Gwendolyn from Odin Sphere

I don't really need other designs of the character, they have become iconic to me. But some more color swaps would be nice, they don't offer much variety.

It's a terrible game that Cred Forums gives a pass because it's "anti-SJW", whatever that means.
It's very short. It's very repetitive. There's very little content. But hey, anime tiddies mean it's great xDDDD

Casual outfits for everyone? I like.
>Fighter running around as a wife beater

...

but he's still a tank, a swat outfit could be cool

>It's very short. It's very repetitive. There's very little content.
It's just your average side-scrolling hack and slash, but with nice art and atmosphere. I loved all the bosses on the game, and especially pic related.

>cooking right now
>mfw it will never look as good as this
Cred Forums is right for once, 2D > 3D.

>It's very short. It's very repetitive. There's very little content.
I bet you think Tetris is a shit game too.

>nice art
Most characters look grotesque, not appealing. Serceress is hot, Amazon is a monstrocity.
I wish she looked like in that futa doujin. Cock included.

>comparing trash to the most perfect video game ever created
Weebs gonna weeb. I bet you like Borderlands too.

nah, the humongous deformed artstyle is pretty cool.

Does it play well on the PS3? Is it on sale now or something?

I am mildly interested but i already have a shit ton of games to play and I'm not willing to cough up more then 12 euro dollars.

>Owned it on PS3
>PS3 died
>Bought it on VITA
>Online is pretty dead these days


PC PORT NOW
PLS

What the fuck. This shit is literally nowhere to be found on PS Store

>Google

>Dragon's Crown removed from European PSN Store

Well, guess they don't like money

that's pretty fucking retarded.
i made the conversion.
it's 31 EUR.
maybe they deleted it because pegi issues in europe?

Do you think that this game could have been as good if it didn't have tits? (or atleast proportionate ones)

Yes, I'm an Elf-fag anyway, I don' care much for tits and have also played all of the characters because they are fun.

Yes, but it would have gotten less publicity.
I wouldn't even have heard of this game if it wasn't for all the sjw bullshit desu senpai

It was fun until you suddenly get burned out doing the same thing for every difficulty.

This has always been Vanillware's selling point.
This and the gorgeous 2d sprites and animations.

No, it was because of publisher fuckery.

It was pulled in June and apparently they said at the time that it was gonna be sorted """""""""""soon""""""""""" but here we are. Ninja Gaiden Sigma disappeared from European PSN years and years ago and it never came back.

if it ever comes back i would have to definitely wait for a sale cause that's way too much.

>Ninja Gaiden Sigma disappeared from European PSN years and years ago and it never came back.
this is fucking loss

That's not how it works user. All Vitas have the same hardware.

>hating on modern day Golden Axe/capcom D&D

You objectively have shit taste. no one played them for tiddies.

>no one played them for tiddies
That must be why every single thread during game's release was full of waifu and vanillaware faggots.
The game is a shallow fapbait, get over it.

> tfw you don't have a vita to play this game.
> tfw you will never play with the cute elf.

Meh. Im all for not being cucked by PC SJW's but this is embarassing cause of those tig ol bitties on display

With something like that happens we will need some mods.

and yet the best of its genre in gameplay mechanics. what I posted was that no one played Golden Axe or capcoms D&D for waifufaggotry, which are the direct inspirations fo DC.

>Cred Forums focusing on the hentai aspects of any new game, regardless of gameplay quality

what the fuck else is new? lumping this in with something like moe chronicles shows how fucking blinkered you are to arguably the best gen 7 game.

stay pleb autist

How's the game if I'm only going to play it in single player? Or should I just stick to the Amazon porn?

Single Player isn't bad. It just means you will have sub-par companions since they can't swap kits between dungeons, which is an issue for items that need replenishment.

If you have homebrew enabled on your Vita you can overclock the GPU for some pretty crazy gains.

youtube.com/watch?v=xLaAA0M5Ryg

Entirely possible to play alone. Probably even better than with ai buddies. A bit harder of course, but also learn a lot about the game and how to play the best. Other players make it too easy often times. Also the battles are less chaotic.

Some classes are less suited to play alone, but Amazon is probably the best for solo-play.

>Or should I just stick to the Amazon porn?
if no friends this is option is the most reasonable

The same hardware that apparently you don't understand how it works.

> eye candy
> embarrassing

Could you sound more like an underage virgin if you tried?

Same day as bloodborne

Play it on PS3 then? Or buy a vita TV, they're probably around 50$ right now.

someone post the one where the art that Jason Schrier likes was prepared

Why not Velvet?
