/cyber/ - Cyberpunk & Science Fiction

I'll end up watching it, but I doubt it'll be in a cinema near me.

>>35623

Shame it's only in the US.

gotta drive 2 hours to get to a theater showing it. Not sure if it's worth it. Really want to see it though.

Fucking hell, that music is terrible.

Who made the decision to put that loud piece of mess over the top of this?

Doesn't fit at all.

>>35642

It's been reimagined for a new generation :^)

>>35623

excite

>>35623

Ugh, no thanks. Call me when they start showing quality works like Love Life idols or K-ON.

>>35731

I hate all the homages, but I liked arise for the most part, it has the action that the other series lacked. and the best spider tanks

I'll check it out, when it's not in theaters, overall I enjoyed arise.

>>35744

>tanks

>can't go inside like the Tachikomas

>dumber AI

>have no feels

It has too much action for my taste. 2nd Gig and SAC might have made you wait more for some, but it didn't felt as just fulfilling the quota. Might be just the nostalgia talking though.

>>35731

>This. I'll shamefully watch it for free.

Movie night?

>>35805

Sure, when it actually comes out in decent quality.

It looks like it might have that pseudo-philosphical bend that made the original great, but on the other hand it's based on Arise.

>>35995

I'm quietly hopeful.

We'll see.

Arise had cyberbrains too easily hackable and sort of "mentioned" interesting topics, but it never really developed them. Hopefully this will find the right balance.

Well, looks better than the shitty SAC FPS game they put out recently

>From such a awesome source material, this game looks terribly generic.

The irony of this most accurate comment coming from someone with a fallout icon is not lost on me.

But how popular are shooters in Japan? I never thought that CoD and Halo would have much popularity in Japan compared to the West, so I've got a theory this is an attempt to widen their FPS consumer base using a Japanese franchise.

Still, it's such a waste turning GiTS in to the seemingly casual shooter clone that the trailers show it as. Could you imagine GiTS running on the Fox Engine instead of a Battlefield knock-off? Shame it'll never happen.

The FPS is one of many Korean-developed F2P FPS games which have been mildly popular for years. They all play pretty much exactly the same as this, so it's nothing new. I suspect the intended audience is not Japanese GiTS or shooter fans, but the same audience that has been playing this kind of game all along and possibly markets such as China where free-to-play is the only viable market.

Japan stereotypically hates shooters, but given how it's also home to a bunch of military otaku and gun nuts Call of Duty/Battlefield have gotten surprisingly popular over there (plenty of Touhou/Battlefield crossover fanart if you look), and of course Metal Gear has become a sort of cultural icon over there. In short, they're growing in popularity but I don't imagine FPS will ever be more than a niche in Japan, especially because most FPS devs these days are completely incompetent.

Sage for OT

>Could you imagine GiTS running on the Fox Engine instead of a Battlefield knock-off?

Anon please, I don't want to dream of android adventures in New Port City.

too bad arise is babby nonsense

>>35632

Same, the closest one to me is all the way in Pittsburgh, PA

>>35731

Have no fear or regrets, life is better that way. Also, I don't want to be that guy, but this technically IS a movie. I do love Motoko's design, but the new movie trailer music is admittedly shit. It's like a thorn in the side of over 15 years worth of perfect soundtracks in the GITS series, even the Arise intro was pretty schway imo

>>36530

Whoever thought letting NEXON handle the game was a good idea should have been derezzed along with every NEXON employee tbh fam smh

>>36760

>but the new movie trailer music is admittedly shit

True, but sadly it is essentially what normies are into atm.

>>35623

Not into anime, but found out about the original recently. Is it any good? Cuz it definitely looks and sounds better than this remake.

>>36790

It would be optimal, but it will it will probably be nice enough as a standalone. If you are going to marathon something GitS, it would be a better investment of your time to watch the first two anime series instead.

>>36824

I've seen the first 2 movies, and I don't got time to hit up the entire Stand Alone Complex

>>36789

it's great

So was it any good? Today is the last day it is showing around me. I think I'm going to try to see it.

>>36889

Update

I went and saw it, was p gud, not amazing.

really liked the scene where they were in a VR bar, with a professional bartender too,drinking their VR drinks, living the cyberdream

>>36855

Is that so? I'll give it a try then.

>>35642

>>35643

>>36760

i don't think theres a japanese version of the trailer in OP's post. heres a japanese trailer that i found.

i think funimation just made a trailer specifically for the english speaking world, the studio itself probably doesn't have the same taste in music.

Guess I'll have to wait for the BD to come out.

>>37051

>that hair at the end

Why didn't she always had it like that in Arise (ㆆ_ㆆ)

>>36530

>FOX engine

Oh god, my dick.

I'd also love to see the source material tackled in the same engine (or at least the same format) as 7.62 High Calibre. Highly tactical, pausable, squad-level strategy. It'd be fucking perfect.

>>36929

Good little mini-review, nice-looking drink, solid photo (except you didn't strip the exif or edit out the theatre location).

>>37132

He probably didn't care. 📱

not caring is not cyber

lol never heard about "gits" and still found out about this new movie before u

>>37191

r u 12 kido?

>>37051

I watched the movie yesterday

It was………terrible, by far the worse, even Solid State Society was better

The story its a continuation of arise which itself was shit-tier, and it makes NO SENSE

Also they are really censoring motoko now, its like the socjus shitheads are in japan too. Her boobs are small, her clothing conservative and she no longer goes naked at all, not even at the end when they ripoff the nude jump scene from the first movie from 20 years ago

I bought the BD, haven't watched it or Arise yet though.No theater showings in my country.

>>37431

But don't you see? Seeing his exif data means they are elite haxors.

>>37598

at least the Americans will be able to make a half decent action movie, something with plot, conflict, etc..
