I haven’t seen if there is custom character creation, but if there is I’ll be picking this up. Petting the dog in any game warrants support for the developer.
It's funny, if it weren't a roguelike than I would consider it despite it just looking like it ripped of HLD's aesthetic. In this case it has two strikes against it, for me.
I actually gave up on waiting for a sale on PS4 with this game- it hasn't been on sale once since it debuted last January. I used my eShop points and picked this up along with it's DLC, at a savings of like 6 bucks. Flawed as the eShop might be, those gold points are... well, golden. Sony has been screwing devs over in regards to sales, and therefore their customers.
Why is it $20 on PS4 but $25 on Switch? They didn’t include anything extra- the DLC is still separate. Given the framerate stutters, I’ll continue to wait for it to be on sale on PS4. It’s been on my wishlist since July, and hasn’t been on sale yet.
@VR32X I was going to mention the same thing. Looking for a storyboard artist means that whatever Nintendo had originally lined up must have REALLY sucked.
I’m getting it day one to support the studio- plenty of good will left over from sonic, burning Rangers, nights, and PSO. I had them all, and they were my favorites.
@RPGamer It’s like when a sane person tries to convince you that they’re not a psychopath by behaving as “normal” as possible and all you can think is “textbook psychopath behavior, trying to fool me by acting normal.”
@GilbertXI Yes BUT is the sword a point of focus in the Japanese cover? It is present without drawing attention to itself. Look at the composition and implied emotion of the western cover versus the Japanese cover- violent vs. serene.
@ritouf There are a bunch of devs in China who try to make their titles appear Japanese to avoid any international stigma. It's sad they feel they have to do that. Hardcore Mecha is another that comes to mind- even the voice acting is done in Japanese.
Typical- western release focusing on the violent aspects of a game. They both look stupid as hell but the western one is particularly absurd. I refuse to vote. There should be an option to say all designs suck, in future cover polls.
Not gonna lie, that award photo from up top looks like the Pazuzu from The Exorcist... especially with that reddish glow like from the beginning of the movie.
Guys, guys, they're neither remakes nor remasters. They're REignited.
Do you get it? Did you get the REignited thing? Because the other words were re-words, and the Spyro games themselves are subtitled as "reignited." OK I just feel like the room isn't getting it...
@mp_72 I would be ok with SH 1-4 as a package. The Room was frustrating towards the end, but had some of the most personal character development (outside of 2) of the entire series. Really felt like you were fighting for something, if only your own survival.
Origins and Homecoming can keep to themselves. Downpour was alright, but felt only marginally silent-hillesque. Could have been it's own IP honestly.
Is there even a contest? Obviously the Japanese one is better. The design on the western release is a poorly thought out character-mash. Like a generic action movie from the early 00's.
@maulinks That's the entire reason I will probably purchase the sith out of this game. I buy digital but if it's good I'll buy a physical copy to support their business. We need new platformer IP's. The italian plumber is not doing it for me much anymore. Imho odyssey feels confused and inconsistent from one world to the next.
@BillyB The gameplay was boring??? I don't know if we played the same Nights into Dreams... I had the game proper (with the 3d pad) and the Christmas disc, which was tons of content in and of itself. Of the many words I'd use to describe the gameplay, boring never comes to mind. Fluid, fast, difficult? Sure. If you got gud, you could pull off some really sick aerial acrobatic runs.
@marandahir i like the characters of Smash and Brawlout, but I’m not a fan of the floaty physics. Drives me bananas. I was hoping this would be a brawler sans fizzy lifting drink. Now I’m just sad.
