I am an enormous fan of arpeggio of blue steel and the content in game. I like having it there and I like being "the fog" and I really want WG to keep making AoBS related content for a while, eventually culminating in an AoBS gamemode where you can use all of the fogs signature weapons..

buuut,,, eh,.

at the same time. I dont want that to take priority over the creation of real in game content, I dont want WG to focus solely on making world of arpeggio. if you get what I'm saying. I really dont know what to think at this point. what is your guys opinion.

(and if that opinion is that anime content doesnt belong in WoWS then try to express that opinion as sensibly and politely as possible)

I want both, more and at the same time. I'm hopeful WG will find the right balance - and probably have separate resources working in different things.

They should abandon AoBS  and go for KanColle :P

 

I don't like KanColle but I can understand why people like it - tastes are different. ;)

 

I just don't think KanColle "ships" would fit into WoWS as well as the ARP ships do.

I'm fine with both. KonColle captains would be cool and arpeggio ships with the gamemode they've been teasing at in one dev log add a bit of color to the battlefield. Otherwise, creating ARP ships is a lot less effort than designing completely new ones, because while a lot of effort it is only one piece of the full creation process. My guess it's also pretty efficient, because the guys who make the 3D models are not necessarily the ones creating the textures and when the latter need to wait for new models to exit the pipeline, they can probably divert some people off to work on ARP skins.

 

Reskins is by comparison a very cost-efficient means of creating new content.

As long as you have the option to hide it (like now) and it doesn't take away too much time, I don't really care.

Would like to see a Arpeggio gamemode too, although I doubt we will see it.

 

And all the ARP ships so far have been reskins, so i dont think that developing that type of content puts a heavy strain on the production of new content for the game. 

 

Im still waiting for ARP Yamato and ARP Musashi... :playing:

KanColle is a game on it's own, AoBS is not. 

 

That being said..

arpeggio ships do fit better into WoWS thats right

KanColle is a Browser Game foremost. The Anime does not stand well on its own as it is filled with game references normal viewers wont understand.

The Anime plot line was also not very.... Let's just not talk about it :(

I watched it since people were talking about it here in this forum. You're not missing anything good by not watching it. The game itself is in Japanese, so there is no point for me to play that since I don't read their script.

Talk about open minded. The clip does represent one perk of one char and she dosent say anything but poi the whole serie. And coming up with with hentai every time anime is mentioned isnt very orginal either  because Kantai colection is more comedy special interest. Or would you sugest after watching a clip about  "friends" or "hammertime" you dont like to watch hard porn instead?

The other thing is how would you know where to aim/where the kancolle ship was going?  And make ship collisions fit the age restrictions of this game.

Thats why its unlikely to be even considered othere than as perhaps Captains. Kancole isnt about ships its about cute Girls with the souls of said ships doing naval combat with funky outfits. Its ill matched for a real ship game were Blue steeel fits in.

yes, lets talk about open mind...

can your oh so open mind understand that i didn't watch the "poi" clip, but the clip that trigger happy dad posted?

and that clip presents exactly what that anime is about. A GIRL (you know, female human) with a CHIMNEY (you know, thing that smoke comes out of) on her back, with GUNS mounted on her arms gliding on water and representing Yamato.

now, can your open mind understand that I don't like that cr@p? can your open mind show me where i bashed on every anime under the sun, and i'm comming up with hentai every time anime is mentioned?

learn to comprehend what you read, then we can talk about things...

I think as the ARP ships are all reskins so far it isn't really detracting from the devs being able to put in normal ships. I'm hoping we get Takao with the next batch of missions :)

If we never get takao I will quit this game

(but its unlikely that they just wont add her in so I'm fairly certain that wont happen)

Your taste is your own. Im not demanding or asking you to like something you clearly dont,

What i cant stand and not comend on is the were you throw the term "hentai" out of your pocket. Because that is often used  agist "otakus" to paint them in a certain way and drag the hobby thogh the mud. Kancole is no hentai. Sure it has some scenes that povide fan service but then you have much more on normal TV (Games of Thrones anyone?).

yeah thats a common misconception.

anime: cartoons made in japan. fullstop.

hentai: a pornographic media based on anime artstyles.

and just at 65% of furries dont wear fur suits or go to conventions.

70-80% of otakus do not watch hentai of any kind (that would  be me in that 70-80%)

and also, the term "fanservice" needs a new name
