@RustedHero thinking about old arcade games, think it'd be nice to play em again with some randomness added
anyone know of a rogue shoot em up? oh wait just remembered one, monolith. only on steam atm. err wait nvm that looks like a twin stick. edit: steredenn
really hard to say, i think you should read steam reviews
i hadn't played since they added crossplay but it uses the host and join system with filters for getting a group and you'll just be staring at a menu waiting for people who most likely will not come, even if they do you might not get a chance to actually do anything since you're gonna be on the same path sharing enemies. it also does missions on the same few and flat stages over and over again.
it's kinda cool the aesthetic, some unique things, and you can enjoy it but the flaws are real like how the rpg elements are really just in the way and not well done. i think it has potential but i don't think it can be fixed, they should either do a sequel or redo it from scratch.
sorta SPOILER
also you get bitter endings unless you beat the game with the all the main 4 characters, so if you buy just half the characters it won't have a good last impression. There isn't a story reason for needing to beat it with all 4 either.
ooh seeing a trailer properly showing gameplay after so long feels so goood. feel like there's been a trend of showing an attack animation over and over again without showing the context of how it's used, makes it look like a cutscene.
that last negative reminds me of a critique i usually have, whether i get to do something or have to, first came up with that because of how you get a freaking wrecking ball in twilight princess and it ain't very good
@Brydontk what are you basing that inevitable cap on? sword is just 11GB(mortal kombat is twice that), people are modding in goku and agumon, the models and animations are from xy, they were able to make animations for 718 pokemon plus moves and even the walk and run animations were unused until recently, Battle revolution(wii) used models and animations from battle stadium(n64), and pokemon lets go had the learn sets and abilties of all 808 pokemon at the time in its files. what is your background? what are you basing that on? are you over it? why did you say that? it's not helping us get over it. this isn't me riled about pokemon, i'm riled about this disconnect we're having.
@traceman being able to send messages was convenient had to forfeit a match because i was running late for class but was able to tell my opponent. i sort of get why they separated the gts, probably to loophole the NSO subscription requirement, free to download get free online features.
