Stop it.

Did you play Viewtiful Joe?

Never!

Nah. Character design is terrible. Im not interested. Im starting to learn Im not much of fan of Clover games/Platinum.

Well Infinite Space/Bayonetta look really cool. Madworld was ok.

@ameratsu
My opinion. I forced 3 hours in. Could not stand it.

@SpartanFC
I already know. I like popular games its just that niche games for me are always better than some of the more popular stuff.

 



No random battles.



Valkyria.

You are a tremendous, unapologetic noob if you don't play Viewtiful Joe just because of the visual design. You aren't a niche gamer. You're an anime gamer. There's a difference.

Amaretsu wasn't telling you to look at Okami. Look at the other games they listed, many are fantastic, particularly Rez.



stop limiting yourself plz

Character design is really important to me. Viewtiful Joe just puts me off. Stuff from Shin Megama Tensei I think looks awesome and I wanna play Devil Survivor Person etc.

Yggdra Union I love it and I would consider it niche. Most games from Sting in general I think are niche.

I am looking at other games and Im admitting to look up some of them. Im not gonna say all of them look interesting or I will check em out because they dont and Im not.

God Hand looks fucking stupid yet really god damn interesting I will look up more.

Yeah that's still stupid, especially when the visual design is so distinctive, internally consistent, and intrinsic to the feel of the game.

Again: that's not being a niche gamer. You are an anime gamer. That's not bad, but there is a distinction, and you need to be aware of it.

Truth be told, I don't think you'll enjoy God Hand - economy of difficulty means it will probably be way, way, way too hard for you.



Ive never even heard of the term "anime-gamer" before. So I guess because I dont like Clover games Im not a niche gamer?

So none of the games I said I'll check out are niche? Just because they have anime styles means Im an "anime-gamer" I dunno I guess.

I'm saying that a niche gamer is someone who will play games just because they are niche, and represent experiences that cannot bee obtained in the mainstream. That's not you. If you reject niche games based on aesthetic considerations, you aren't actually looking for niche games - that's just how it is.
