These scanned images are then stored in a library of hundreds of similarly noteworthy elements, which can then be linked together, to access more in depth information.
That's an in-depth visual novel, not a game. There is nothing that can actually be classified as gameplay, not even in a non-traditional sense.
P3 just became 75% less game.
P3 is more visual novel, the stuff you do at night time is like 10% if you don't bother grinding.QUOTE said:Persona 3? It's an RPG. It has a simulation portion during the day, which is classified as a form of game, and is total RPG at night. I can't understand where this argument is coming from.
Are we going to start calling Kindle's handheld gaming devices now? It is not a game if you do not play it.
Whether its considered a game or not, its done already so lets just move on.Nathan Drake said:Goli said:So visual novels aren't games anymore? ):Nathan Drake said:prowler_ said:Nathan Drake said:Metal Gear Solid: Digital Graphic Novel isn't really a game.

Fact is, MGS is a game. You don't see that shit happening on a movie UMD.

You've basically just described what a VN is not like, well done.Nathan Drake said:Or have you only played 10 minutes of the game? Find a better example.I've clocked around 30 hours into P3P, why do you ask?
Nathan Drake-kun, will you go out with me to eat noodles after class? DON'T GO TALKING TO OTHER BOYSQUOTEA visual novel features no gameplay, no game ending decisions, or even drastic decisions. You can not achieve a game over. You do nothing imperative to the progression of the story past going to the next page.
