2D in the mainstream or one random NIS review

>A huge and inexcusable disappointment is the story presentation. Static pictures are shown on screen with voice acting dubbed over to provide the narrative.
>It’s worth repeating. Pictures. No cut scenes animating character interaction, something commonplace even on the PlayStation 1.
>It’s sad when a game’s story is more reminiscent of Ninja Gaiden’s from the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) cut scenes than anything in the last 15 years.

hahaha owow

PICTURES, YES JUST DAMN PICTURES

Don't get mad at random gaming site, Last Rebellion really is a shitty game. NO ONE liked it, not even Japan. Last Rebellion is the reason NIS almost reported a loss this year, and the reason they had to announce a new Disgaea rehash just to save face.

NIS can lick my balls, disgaea sux.

Is Last Rebellion the game that NIS said would sell a million copies?

No matter how bad the game is, it can't excuse writing something that stupid.

Not debating the overall quality of a game I haven't played but the quotes refer to the use of 2D images and overlayed character portraits for the sake of story-telling and plot progression.

Holy fuck this is why I don't read professional game reviews anymore. Thanks OP, I raged.

To be fair, the expectations from a doujin PC game and a professional PS3 game are really different.

It's not that it makes for poor storytelling, it just seems lazy to do, when there was potential for so much more.

This won't have any effect on AT3 coming stateside, right?

And this is why visual novels won't ever be mainstream entertainment, and why videogamers are the last audience segment for them.

No reason why it should.
These titles are for the nichè market, the mainstream reviews aren't really one of their concern.
The overthetop innuendo on the other side...

While visual novels will never be mainstream entertainment indeed, you seem to hold a mistaken belief that video games (of the kind that contains extensive cinematic storylines) are one.

Things like WiiFit are.
Generally, when you are close in the ten million and above.
