Can't wait for Aug. 6th :D

Hopefully this game sells well enough to propel Vanillaware to greater heights.  They've made some good stuff, been teetering on the brink for awhile.

At this point I think Im the only one who likes the art of the game. And no the reason I like the art is not because of OMG boobs, its because I like games with cartoony-anime art design in general

Definitely want the game, but only at a 20-25 price point. Just seems like the type of game that will drop in price rather quickly. I'd imagine it'll get to at least 30 by Black Friday.

Vanillaware take my money. Seriously, these guys are talented as fvck. I was blown away by GrimGrimoire on the PS2 and have been supporting them ever since. Odin Sphere to Grand Knights History to Muramasa: Demon's Blade and now to Dragon's Crown. They have a healthy release schedule, here's hoping for more Vanillaware games in the future.

What I find funny is that this game gets criticized for having sexualized woman yet still nobody complains about Final Fantasy XV having sexualized males.

Talk about having double standards

At least the people grading the game based on mechanics all seem to be liking it.

From a mechanical view the game seems visually stunning. Its artistic merits are subjective and should be left the hell alone. Employ your freedom of speech like any good writer would, but a personal distaste for boobies should not be considered objectively detrimental. Games are art, but their art is not the game... If that makes any sense.

And that's before considering how absurd it is to be offended by digital skin, which is a rather deep rabbit hole...

I'm not surprised. There are teens who work in these electronic stores like Best Buy, WalMart, Gamestop, etc.. who will either steal the game or buy it themselves before the street date and just go home and play it.

"Dragons Crown is about to put Vanillaware on the map." :lol: Oh IGN, Vanillaware is going to be a blip on the map for people who don't browse forums, and that is due to the sexism controversy that game journalists are so intrigued with. People who browse game forums already know who Vanillaware is for games like Muramasa, Odin Sphere, and Grimgrimoire which is why there was initially interest in Dragon's Crown when it was announced in 2011.

Haven't we gone through this already with that big Dragon's Crown/Kotaku debacle? Don't see what more could possibly be brought to the table.

Just a personal gripe too, but the whole debate in the community surrounding this issue is getting pretty tiresome overall, you know what I mean?

 

Edit: Holy 4 edits

Trail_Mix
It's getting beaten like a dead horse, so much so that the point they are trying to make is beginning to get criticized, because people are tired of having it forced down their throats on every gaming website, rather than being discussed rationally. I thought the Polygon review was well written; she at least argued her points better than Kotaku. She mentions that she doesn't have quite as big a beef with the Amazon and Witch because they are powerful female characters despite their bust/ass size; however, those weird almost fetish-y touching sequences got to her, and to be honest, they are weird. I'm not sure the exact context to them, but just going off of a video I saw, you're basically touching scantily clad women (who are chained up), men, and goblins and hearing them moan in pleasure.... it's just weird, and it doesn't seem to fit in the game. Anyway that's my two cents.
