I don’t know the genre name, but

If you know of such a work, please let me know, anonymous.

>>2

Is it a work set in a world where people have been transformed into aberrations or machines, and it’s too late?

Even in such an environment, when a character lives vigorously and joyfully, it feels like I receive power, and I can relate to the character more closely.

The thread image embodied the world view I liked, so I played with it multiple times.

>>11

If the people living there are no longer human and have their reproductive abilities as a species taken away, it gives off a sense that, even if a society is formed, it’s already over.

Katahorra

Xenoblade

Is it okay to include things other than games?

Is it better not to have salvation?

It’s become too late.

The civilization has collapsed, but humanity is barely surviving.

It’s really completely hopeless, and the extinction of humanity is just moments away.

I wonder which one it is, maybe the latter?

What came to mind was “Noroi.”

Apocalypse Hotel and Yokohama Shopping Trip, maybe?

Please provide the name of the image in the thread.

Games like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring are too late, but they have managed to survive for quite a while after that, so it’s different…

If you’re collecting, could you please list a few titles?

>>21

If it’s a game, then it’s the Exoscalibur Zero from Baroque manga.

I like the worldview of Čapek’s RUR in plays.

>>22

It’s a game where the difficulty is pretty much finished.

Atelier Twilight Series

The story is set in a world where characters are bright, but resources like earth and water are depleted, the climate and environment are deteriorating, and the world is gradually approaching its end.

Before the current world, civilizations that thrived experienced similar events and perished, leaving behind their legacies and information.

The complete DLC package is being remade on the Switch, so you can buy it at a good price.

It’s a light novel, but I think it’s Biscuit Frankenstein. It feels like a story about the world after it ends, or rather, the story leading up to the end. I read it during my school days, and it really resonated with me.

Got it, it’s Kamen Rider.

Dark Souls 2 is a little different, huh?

>>28

Despite saying that the world is ending, it’s surprisingly resilient…!

>>32

Because it completely ended at 3 and became a world of only ash…

It seems like we’re going to enter the world of the deep sea after this.

I raised the atelier, but if it’s that genre, then it’s different.

There were a lot of those during the PS era.

>>30

I think there are still quite a few now, so it goes well with the game genre.

>>62

Since I can limit the period of depiction, I cleared it, but after that… you know.

I feel like it’s easier to imply things like that, which makes it superior to other media.

Garage

>>31

I’m really curious about this.

FRAGILE

The world of the bass was properly there, but the feeling that it has completely distorted is nice, isn’t it…

Psychopomp

>>38

2 seems like it will bring out HIDEO’s evil side even more, which is great…

Spirit Machine Guidance Missile

Isn’t it like Nier Replicant?

Me, who is there now.

Baroque is great, isn’t it… I debuted with the remake on Switch.

AΩ Super Science Fiction Horror Tale

The Shin Megami Tensei series is mostly too late, but regular people are doing well.

NecroNica

How about Pandora’s Tower?

>>49

It’s not just a post-apocalyptic scenario where we quietly accept the twilight of humanity; it’s actually an apocalypse.

Free game OFF

Even without considering the final outcome, there was a sense of stagnation.

>>50

In a free game RPG, the end credits were the most complete.

I like the Vaal Empire in Path of Exile 2.

They studied unknown powers and prospered, but the queen went insane and summoned the beast that was the source of the mysterious power, causing a great disaster and leading to devastation.

The court magician, anticipating that, attempted to help the people survive by turning them into cyborgs, but in the end, the empire sank to the bottom of the water.

Our Sun

Metal Max

Death Stranding was really interesting…

Isn’t Kowloon’s Gate a little different?

BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH

The image may change depending on whether humanity is positive or resilient.

Logica and Peanuts

In the game Grim Dawn, there are beings from other dimensions and worlds that invade and threaten humanity with destruction.

Kino’s Journey and King Thief JING.

I like Kowloon’s Gate.

Was that a normal world…?

Tales of the Abyss and so on.

In the PS version, the world view felt quite finished, like in the long title “lain.”

It was a good work that properly confronted the datafication of humans in an era when AI and such were not well-developed.

From the looks of the thread, it seems like it’s a world falling apart in a madness-based horror kind of way.

>>72

It’s like being in a situation where you’ve missed the timing to save the world.

If it’s a world where no matter how much we struggle, the situation won’t improve.

Whether there is hope or not, I like both genres.

If you’re okay with not being recommended at all, then the meatball machine.

The main setting of the story is another world, but the original world was quite dystopian, Overlord.

Etrian Odyssey

Is it a spoiler?

>>75

It’s only hope because it’s a revival after being too late and perished.

The craziness of Kowloon’s Gate is great.

It’s not the world that’s beyond saving, but just the country; I like molten iron Malfusha and such.

I wonder if this is like TELEFORUM that can be done for free.

The Despairia at the Tori-Cast was also creepy.

Humanity, having escaped the contaminated ground, lives in flying cradles.

In order to skip that, the pollution on the ground will spread further, and eventually… I wonder if something like ACfA is a bit different in vector.

>>81

When playing, exploring felt tedious and tag was tough, and I was left wondering about the ending, but upon reflection, it’s actually a really well-crafted story…

Isn’t Garage more of an unclear mental world rather than an apocalyptic one?

>>83

Eventually, the end of the world is approaching, and you’ll be able to see various characters taking action there.

Someone who kills the woman they’re in unrequited love with.

>>90

It’s nice how the supply of fuel is limited and kind people have changed.

But Gimnon, who behaves the most humanly, has the struggles in the world of ◯ that I can empathize with the most.

This is my top recommendation.

Maid of Sker

Metal Gear Survive takes place even further after the events of “V” (Metal Gear Solid V).

Baroque is the best, right…? The manga adaptation is also amazing.

Do Baroque Syndrome too.

If the world is in a bind, Blasphemous is good.

I find it creepy yet interesting that people interpret the phenomenon of distorting like in the BAROQUE as a miracle.

I love Einhander in STG, no matter what.

OnceHuman

Stalker

>>89

In this world, only the area around the nuclear power plant is finished; the outside world is normal.

I was playing the demo of baroque shooting for a while.

The recent AI Limit was quite apocalyptic.

I feel like the world view in R-Type was also tough for a STG.

>>96

If you stop worrying about appearances, there is quite a bit of hope.

>>96

In the end, is it the official setting that Baid was created to defeat the R fighter that transcends time and space…? If so, that’s too hopeless.

SOMA is highly recommended. You can buy it on Steam and there is a fan-made Japanese patch available.

Title? The main visual is so intense that you should investigate at your own risk.

>>100

Yume Nikki is strangely such that knowing the ending makes that chaotic world seem like a utopia.

Is it something where it’s not just a few surviving after the collapse of civilization, but instead it’s completely over and it’s just a matter of extinction from here on?

Ultraman Saga

The story takes place on Earth, where there are aliens even though Ultraman is not present, and humans have mostly been turned into prey, but it might be a bit too heroic.

Would it be okay if it feels like the world won’t regenerate until after destruction is certain?

>>103

That reminds me of the original GOD EATER.

How about the original Drakengard?

It feels similar to Shin Megami Tensei.

It can be said that Dark Souls is also a story set in a world that is almost finished.

I think humanity is quite packed with things like deep worlds and such.

I borrowed it from a tutor during the time I was going a bit crazy from exam stress and reading “The Livestock Man YP.”

I realized that when I come into contact with this type of work during times when my mental state is not good, it actually makes me feel comforted.

There are quite a few works that have become too late…

Fallout

In a world that has ended, modified bodies, monsters, and highly vital locals align quite well with the conditions.

>>115

There are definitely old ones and similar beings in that world.

>>117

It’s a world that ends and is replayed, but I quite liked aspects like Horizon.

I want to know more about what kind of places you like.

It feels like the game version of Black Rock Shooter has already ended in this world.

I kind of understand.

The demons dancing in the disco located in the underground city of Shin Megami Tensei are quite robust.

There are types that say “I’ll finish this once and redo it!” and those where it really only needs to be finished.

Garaju is also recommended for people who like Kowloon City.

There is a corridor called “This cut!”

Also, the posters that look like they’re done in a fit of anger have a Kowloon-like quality.

>>124

I played Zelda: BotW without any prior information, so I was surprised that more people were surviving and seemed so cheerful than I expected.

FO is already about to be checkmated, but I like humans because they are too resilient in a different way.

The TRPG “Falling World” is great.

>>126

It’s great that the official statement advises against setting or attaching characteristics to characters, given that the adjustments are based on the premise of character loss.

STG has a lot of intense settings, like Philosoma.

Gundam X was pretty much over, wasn’t it, the world?

MiSide was popular here too.

Philosomes really have no salvation.

There are also works set in a world where manga by Tezuka-sensei and Fujiko Fujio(A) sensei frequently come to an end.

In recent games, the wild dog child was pretty good, but talking in detail would be a spoiler.

It feels like the world has ended and there’s a sense of stagnation.

It seems like those who are alive right now are somehow doing well.

I feel like there surprisingly isn’t much.

>>136

The atelier from the Twilight series mentioned above feels quite fitting.

>>136

What about WA3?

It feels like the world is falling apart due to sand damage, but the bounty hunters are still going strong today.

Aren’t there many STG and SF stories set in a world that’s already ended?

The upcoming animated adaptation (planned only) of Rebuild World, etc.

Civilization has been destroyed multiple times, and each time it has been revitalized, so I think it’s a bit different from being too late.

Metal Max is still vibrant in some series.

I really love that even though the world should be ending in things like BAROQUE or Dark Souls 2, the base feels comfortable and gives off a warm vibe.

It feels like a calm and peaceful old age.

If you think about it seriously, Fallout shouldn’t be able to last for 200 years just by scavenging junk.

Humans seem to be so full of energy that they could just keep going like this, huh…?

>>144

I think that not only are we consuming resources, but we are also involved in aquaculture and new mining, and someday we will be able to revive our civilization.

>>150

Somehow, people are surviving in various places… Since it’s a series, the longer it continues, the more that’s to be expected.

>>150

Fallout is an ode to humanity.

>>150

The one I’ve been farming is dead…

>>144

How long is this unopened cola going to last?

Fallout has a pretty bright future after all, doesn’t it?

It’s not just that the protagonist is amazing, but there are also people who maintain a high level of civilization just like that.

It’s great to have a work where you survive in a devastated world only to find out at the end that it was all about ending your life (or maybe it’s not great).

Ultimately it leads to destruction, but the black and white Avesta.

A world where people are born divided into two factions of good and evil and are in conflict.

It’s clear from the first move that it’s a cursed world of fetus vs. mother.

If it’s a novel, I think the world of Denpou Toriushima’s “Run (lol)” is pretty much over.

Breath of Fire 5

I’ll do my best to look at the sky!

>>153

The outside world has already naturally recovered, so it’s not that bad.

I don’t know if there are any followers following Ryu and the others.

Among the closed-off atmosphere of the AC universe, I like ACfa the most.

The energy that pollutes the world makes the Earth uninhabitable, and even when trying to go to space, there is only proper habitat in the sky because machines attack when you reach a certain altitude.

>>154

In the ending where the best feeling, or rather the hopeful special attack machine is destroyed, the narration says, “Humanity has now acquired a new battlefield in space,” and it leaves you feeling a bit empty…

Hylics… I want to recommend it, but is it really okay in a world that’s already over?

Playing makes me feel like I’m going to fall apart over here.

Since it’s also categorized as a quirky game like BAROQUE, I hope you’ll give it a try if you’re interested.

The protagonist also likes to attack by snapping their fingers.

>>155

It has an art style like Fanstastic Planet.

Looks interesting.

>>175

It’s similar to the feeling of dreaming when you have a high fever, so if you’re interested, definitely give it a try.

>>146

In context, it’s that humanity had not gone extinct!

It’s nice to see hope even in a world that’s ended…

It feels like the old world has ended and a new world is being created.

It’s a laid-back medieval worldview, but actually, it had already been destroyed once, so the revival is happening, which isn’t quite so dark, right?

Despiria has such a world view, but the ending is oddly refreshing.

It’s like a growth story of Alua-chan.

Don’t go crazy, don’t go crazy, don’t go crazy, don’t go crazy.

If you say you’re crazy, then I’ll go crazy too.

Don’t go mad, don’t go mad, don’t go mad, don’t go mad.

More than saving the world, you are important to me.

Don’t go crazy, don’t go crazy, don’t go crazy, don’t go crazy.

The meaning of being born is to become one with you.

No Man’s Sky is also over, so I recommend it.

>>162

It’s nice that Naru, who seems to be playing us like puppets, is the one who’s most panicked when I told them the world is really ending…

Does Ideon also have post-apocalyptic elements?

It’s true that even though the world is ending, everyone seems to be having fun…

In MegaTen, the two possible worlds of 4 (non-Deluxe) were heading toward greater ruin than the original world.

In “Gag Manga Biyori,” Mito Komon had perished once in the 25th century, but since Mitsukuni has turned into a tank top, it’s all good.

Cyberpunk 2077 is also nicely packed.

It seems like it will be extinct in a few decades.

Up to this point, there is no Eastern Brain or Middle Heaven.

Cyber Doll

What is the judgment on the post-collapse period of FF6 in the thread?

In RPGs, it’s quite common for the worldview to suddenly head towards an apocalypse due to the actions of the final antagonist.

>>173

In the end, it’s about defeating Kefka and heading towards a hopeful future, so it might not feel too constricted.

When it comes to a world of promised ruin, there’s Orphen, for example.

There’s no sign of destruction at all in the story.

Breath of Fire 5 has quite a serious image due to its theme song.

When the opposition appears as an enemy and there are cities as bases, the feeling of humanity’s end dissipates, doesn’t it?

It’s difficult, isn’t it?

>>182

I think whether a person is living as a human being has a significant impact on impressions.

As long as human society exists, there will somehow always be hope for the future.

Looking at the Century End Bulletin Board Village game, they seem to be quite relaxed about it.

It’s not exactly a different dimension, but the purple of Katatema is…

The world is overflowing with magical power, and by some chance, it will chain-react and be destroyed.

A story where the two protagonists are just somehow postponing the explosion, and it’s quite a finished tale.

After 10,000 years since the Doujin STG Sguri or Great War, the Earth’s environment has returned, but the protagonist and the spaceship’s computer predict that humanity will likely perish eventually, which made it feel like a more apocalyptic world than expected.

Is Nier Automata different?

Abachu

No Man’s Sky has the world ending in 16 seconds…

The feeling of the world’s end around the last stronghold in DQ11 was great.

It’s hard to recommend it in that context because it can become good or bad within the same work.

I’ve heard that Dead Space is quite stuck.

I think the ending of Diablo is a bit simple.

There are many different ways to end things, right?

The rules of the world are going crazy, like nuclear war, pathogens, and a future guaranteed to physically disappear.

There was something like the Ariandel painting world from Dark Souls.

In a world where everything has rotted away and become useless, the residents of nearby houses (monsters) are asking me to put an end to it for the next generation.

In manga, Yuji Iwahara’s “Ibara no Ō” is a well-crafted masterpiece that concludes with volume 6 and leaves a good aftertaste.

Dimension W, a later work, is also good.

At first, I didn’t like works where the villagers and townspeople that appear are in a bad state, even though it’s not the entire world.

In Dragon Quest, where villagers are turned to stone, or in Great Monster Story, where they are used as nutrients for monsters.

Yamabuki City, which is occupied by a gang like Team Rocket…
