This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

Unicorn Overlord sounds like trying to appeal to two wildly disparate groups at the same time tbh 😅
I really, really hate this trend of not localizing titles that presumably sound cool in Japanese, but are just like ??? in English. Various Daylife is the worst offender I've seen so far 💀
Hey, don't conflate those two, Unicorn Overlord sounds fucking awesome when you say it aloud, whereas Various Daylife is just as confusing, but instead seems downright pedestrian and boring in comparison.
Various Daylife?? 🤣
Should localize them by using the Japanese title translation so it sound equally "foreign awesome" in English? ユニコーンオーバーロード is what Google Translate outputs and hey I will say, it immediately looks less silly to me, despite actually saying the exact same words. 😑 (I hate that this actually works)
Usually what some localizers do is change it to German or French instead.
I want to play a game of Dungeon Keeper now where the "good" side has gone wicked from repeatedly being beaten and goes wild building up their own horrific "utopia" and attacking everyone else.
Then again, they'd just build Florida I suppose. 🤔 and ban books in schools and shit.
Vanillaware in a nutshell
Not coming to PC :/
Yeah, Vanillaware is one of the few remaining Japanese third-party devs to hold out on the PC market. The Japanese PC market is growing rapidly though, so hopefully we'll see it later.
Then again, we were saying the same thing two years ago with 13 Sentinels.
Looks pretty great.
I love Vanillaware. Actually wish they’d port over Dragon Crown and Odin Sphere for the switch.
If there’s one thing they really know how to make their sprites detailed in animation and design and the food of course.
Never forget the food.
13 Sentinels had me seriously craving some nikuman.
