You're not alone; I noticed their modesty, too.
Discussion Koei Tecmo's Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation Prism announced at TGS 2024
- Thread starter Ebicentre
- Start date
Same thing. I mean it's very tame from the usual. It's not like everyone needs them in Bikini's 24/7 but it is kind of just bland when there is too much clothing and it relies heavily on relationship mechanics.
Which region are you in? Because in America it's obviously blocked unless you use a VPN to bypass restrictions.
From what I have looked at this seems like this is for Asia as a whole. But like always it just seems that after DOA6 failed KT does not know what to do with the franchise anymore other than attach it to things and hope it sells. Sadly a DOA7 can not happen because the lead guy from it quit KT and most people kind of were too upset over a game having a lot of MTX even though that would have been optional and it's sort of normal to do this in Japan. At this point I would be willing to pay for some MTX if it meant we get more fanservice and more content with it like Senran Kagura did. It's just odd how sometimes these things happen and now we are dealing with the end result of Venus Vacation Prism as proof that KT does not know what it's doing anymore.
From Automaton Media (archive):
- Venus Vacation Prism is not a gacha game; outfits can be unlocked by playing the game
- one of the major game mechanics is the ability to take photos of the girls to raise their popularity (and unlock more outfits)
- the game will be using the Katana Engine for 'extra wetness and steamy breaths' (archive)

Oh good. I know that the OG Venus Vacaction has microtransactions, so I highly suspected Prism of having microtransactions.
Also, where the fuck is Marie Rose? She's one of the most popular characters in Dead or Alive. It would be heresy if she wasn't in this game.
All sound well on paper but I think I will just wait. KT going for ESG has me worried this might be scam or a bait and switch.

But big titties are a good thing.
Of course but I like variety and Marie brings that.
Can agree. I do think it's also interesting they discussed the fact they are using the Katana Engine aka Wo Long and DW9 for the game. This does give me hope, because I did see the news that Koei Tecmo is pulling out of the Mobile Market and is focusing more on AAA games as a whole. They are opening up another AAA studio and hiring more employees. It does make sense considering that Mobile Scene is too oversaturated with Gacha and the Gachapon is running out of users to make money from. It's much easier to put out a full priced game, and then sell DLC to have them put that money into more content for VVP than it is, to put out a free game and hope for Whales to put more money into it. Plus KT is placing their bets on Atelier Yumia with it having intricate combat and Fanservice Designs as well.

This is a good point, I would like to see Petite Ladies at the very least or shorter ones that are flat or interesting. There has been too heavy of a push for bulky designs lately not like I dislike it, but I do think Variety is important. Maybe they will start to add them as DLC.
