Playstation Tablet 1,722 Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Let's be real though, we expected better than this from Grasshopper. Also so many indie games that are 2D, or low budget have gotten AAA scores this year like Celeste, Dead Cells, Hollow Knight, Iconclasts. There is no excuse for such a poor result.

McWicked 825 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I picked it up. 7/10 is about right. The gameplay is passable, but the style is typical Suda51. Electric Tiger III is meh, but Life is Destroy is much more interesting. This feels more like Travis Touchdown does Grindhouse than Travis Touchdown plays vidya games. Overall it's about what I expected: Suda's capable of much more. You could take this game, give it the traditional NMH camera and controls, and it'd be vastly improved. Oh well.

Sounds exactly like how I imagined it. At least you're financing Grasshopper. That's all that matters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hot Sauce 2,727 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I'm not sure who thought pressing the left thumbstick as step one in a two-step process to charge your sword was a good idea, but they shouldn't be working in video games. So many unused buttons and that's what they decide to go with. Game is pretty mediocre. Combat is simple. Lot of enemies are damage sponges. Levels are way too long. Just overall a really tedious gameplay experience. Bosses are cool, though, and, even as a non-Suda51 fan, I'm enjoying the wackiness. If they just aimed for something in the 4-5 hour range rather than what seems like it'll be 8-10 hours I think the game would be a lot better for it. There's just so much tedious filler getting in the way of the alright stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I found that easier than holding left thumbstick and wiggling right. Either way, it's not as intuitive as NMH where you were holding a dick controller. They should have just had you wiggle the right stick while not moving. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They should have just had you wiggle the right stick while not moving. Any button and shake/wiggle right stick would have been fine. Left/right trigger? No problem. Shit, even if they had the thumbstick press lock you out of movement it would have been fine, but press and hold the thumbstick with even the slightest nudge cancelling the charge is just retarded. It's not annoying enough for me to play the game docked and use my Pro controller, but it's just such an obvious design flaw and so easy to fix that it's baffingly that they went with it.

Hot Sauce 2,727 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Beat it. 6/10 Second half is better than the first thanks to better pacing, aside from a really bad final game. Wouldn't recommend it to anybody that doesn't already like Suda51 games and rule 1 of Suda51 fandom is looking past gameplay shortcomings anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
