Yes, it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm popping up out of nowhere to defend Omori even though I wasn't even quoted or mentioned. Do not underestimate the power of love. Uh, for a videogame.

Venger_06 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Music is always the least important factor. You can always turn off the volume and/or listen other things while playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) Anime is one of those terms that have more than one meaning, depending on who is using it. Strictly speaking, Anime is "Animation made in Japan / by a Japanese", regardless of the animation style. So even 3D animation can be Anime. Anime is the shortening of the way the Japanese pronounce the word Animation. That said, it doesn't stop people from using the term as "made or inspired by animation made in Japan", while also trying to apply it to certain animation visuals, styles, methods, etc. A good example of this is Avatar - The Last Airbender. People say it's anime-inspired, or "western anime". Is it true? By the impersonal definition of the word, maybe. By the actual one? Nope. AtlA was made by three different Korean animation studios. Thus, it's not anime, but instead "hanguk aeni", which is the term for Korean based animation. Of course, you're free to choose either definition of the word.

Interdimensional Observer Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I'd say music is an amplifier. With games, I like to have the context with my music. I can acknowledge something is technically good by itself, but it kicks it into highest gear if I understand the people, world, and situations behind it. Considering most game tunes lack for the words, it other things that become the lyrics, so to speak. I can't remember the last instance of bad music I've encountered though. Inoffensively unmemorable, or overplayed, but not bad. 5 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: Doesn't have to be made by a japanese to be anime. There's alot of japanese inspired western games True. I remember a DS JRPG called Black Sigil that was very clearly inspired by the 16-bit classics, but was made in Canada. 4 minutes ago, Sooks said: I mean, it has traditional JRPG gameplay, but the story is definitely not traditional and the artstyle doesn’t really count so… what then?

In the world of food, we have things like Tex-Mex and *Insert Continent/County* Fusion cuisine, why not carry it over into gaming. Call it a Nip-Am game, or a "Japanese-inspired" game is succinct enough. Treat it like currywurst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename Shrimp Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I don't wanna post Bees and chickens. I wanna erase them from my mind optimally, but as a former Trails fan i have to live with the curse knowing that the games don't get anything right anymore. Not even music. Which is how i got into Trails in the first place 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
