>i will knock all your expectations down
Shatter all your expectations.
wdym?
The stories not that good, but I did really enjoy the game. Jack's a fun character.
damn I hate kino
guess I'll skip this
you should, I only hear shills use that to describe their game when they have nothing good to say about it
>>>Ganker core kusoge.
The plot is fricking asinine but in a shockingly fun way. And I'd argue to the moon and back that it's gameplay and boss fights are better than anything in Elden Ring, and fan boys can cry all they want.
>nojima's wild rides
>not kino
I already knew the Jack Garland twist but I didn't expect it to hit me so hard after he starts his rampage. I mean, just look at this shit, Darkness Manifest has the heads of all the team around his neck like if they were a necklace. After I saw that in-game I got really fricking upset.
.... No shit bro they literally said it in the second trailer.
Darkness Manifest was a disappointing fight. I know it was purely to wrap up the game cinematically, but I had a tougher time fighting Marilith.
Ngl. It was pretty annoying until I learned you get infinite mana in the second phase. Ultima just carried me through it.
For me it was Immortal liberator and a huge fricking axe
Never used the job. How tanky was it?
It's a buffing job, played through hard mode co-op and most things still destroyed me so I just ditched it and used double breaker instead. But the thing is you literally can't die with it since there is an upgrade to it's main ability that keeps you at 1 hp as long as you have mana.
The gimmick only works on that fight alone and only during that specific part of the story but god damn, fully charging that one axe swing while being unkillabe and having no cares in the world is magical.
So what's the tldr of the storyline and why does he kill everyone in the end is Chaos is supposed to have four friends? I am not strong enough to stomach the degree of cringe this game has, but morbid curiosity demands insight
Why are zoomers like this?
It's a good movie plot. I do wish that there was more character building to set up for the twist or that the twist was better set up itself. Like frick, who the frick is Sophia? She just buts in and when the flashback happens when she dies I was just ??? b***h WE BARELY KNOW HER. THIS ISN'T EARNED.
I am unfortunately 30 years old and still stuck in this shithole, your stale Ganker memes are nothing short of that.
Shut the frick up I don't fricking care who you are
Well you are really off your medication schedule today, aren't you?
>expected to be able to play the game
>got an awful mess of a pc port
What the frick?
It's in a class of its own, anon.
I tap fist erry time and I still can't play this fricking game because frick epic.
Is it actually secretly good? or is OP trolling? apart from this thread the only reviews/info I have seen about the game is people either memeing hard about chaos, or saying the controls are shit.
Man shut up moron.
Calm down, was honestly curious. You have a bad day or something, dude?
Frick off moron. Go back to Ganker.
You really have brain problems.
Stop talking about yourself moronic fricktard
You have a favourite word I see.
Yeah, it's called go frick yourself. I hope you die. Get a heart attack, stop shitting /vrpg/ threads.
Your lack of self-awareness is worrisome.
Your lack of decision making skills saddens me.
Yeah, I can see why being the kind of person that has meltdowns over people asking basic questions - wasn't even me, is the funny part - may cause that.
Did you have a stroke, old frick?
I liked it. I also saw folks saying it's a Souls like which is not true. It's just a classic action-rpg. Very hack and slashy, fun class system. It has a fast pace, each stage is well paced, and the characters are enjoyable enough (especially Jack) without really getting bogged down in cutscenes and talking.
Stages are well paced but I really wish they were more unique. I don't think any of them really stuck in my mind. They picked like the least memorable locations for each game. (like come on. FFIX and FFVIII world you literally spend the first 10-20mins in and then never again) FF7 and FF10 had the best ones but that's not saying much.
I liked 6 being the Floating Island. I love 6 though. To your point though, I was more then halfway into the game before I realized that the levels were supposed to be areas from the other FFs.
Same. I wish the goddess, the fiend, the demon were all mini bosses though.
Honestly the level design was kinda mediocre. Gameplay was fun though.
I thought it was much more of a movie plot. They cut a lot of fluff for the main ideas and it's sorta good but I wish we got more of the cast. Less is more I guess.
Yeah, levels were unmemorable. It's definitely not a perfect game, but I liked it and wished that more games would be of this type.
I'll try to give it an actual descriptive review, as I agree "kino" is a meaningless, useless word. Same as "comfy"
So, gameplay wise it's a simplified, fast, beat-em-up action RPG. The most similar game I can think of recently was actually the Seiken Densetsu 3 remake. It's not combo heavy, there's not a lot of complicated inputs, complexity comes from character choice and waiting for openings. Ultimately, not that hard though. You can button mash through a lot of it.
The system around it is different from the SD3 remake though, as it has a defined set of characters. The MC can unlock every class, and each class has a skill tree which in turn can unlock more classes. npcs all have a limited set of classes they can use, which are unlocked over your playthrough. You control which class they use, but not how it levels. It's a pretty fun, pretty straightforward class system that gives you a sense of progression in your character, but isn't super complicated. I felt satisfied in my ability to level up most of the classes in a single playthrough, and they add a post-game mode where the limits are removed and you can grind into infinity. I like the system, clean and doesn't get bogged down too much in the details. But, late game the choice of class really matters and changes how you fight different bosses.
The plot is pretty simple, but the characters are enjoyable enough. A retelling of the story of FF1 (which was barebones) but with set characters, and this very modern aspect of the game being a world made up of segments built from other games in the FF universe. Basically, a fanservice plot built to give some extended plot to Final Fantasy 1 while also giving fan-service by tying in the rest of the games into the series. It's to mixed result, and as I said above I didn't even realize it was referencing other FF games until about halfway through.
Finally, Jack is an entertaining protagonist. He gets a lot of attention, he's an action-hero type character. What I like is that he's played very straight. No real meta-commentary on him. He's angry, he tries to be less angry as the game progresses, it ends with stuff related to that. The style of the game gives this dark, over the top violent, edge to a cartoony game but doesn't shirk from it and plays it pretty much straight. I really enjoyed it for that, though it's not going to be a plot that makes you reflect endlessly on it. It's an action game, done well, with so little of the irony and ashamed self-awareness of many games these days.
There were several times the game had me do finisher moves that caught me off guard and had me laughing at how ridiculous they were. The game played them straight though, and that added to my enjoyment.
If that sounds fun to you, it's a short game. Give it a go. Perhaps wait until it's off the Epic store.
>So, gameplay wise it's a simplified, fast, beat-em-up action RPG. The most similar game I can think of recently was actually the Seiken Densetsu 3 remake
My homie it's a slightly modified Nioh combat system what the frick.
I can see it's the same engine, but it does not feel like Nioh to me. It's more fast paced best em up to me.
It's not the use of slang but the substitution of it for any thought at all.
>slang exist
>this boomer frick: WAAAAAAAAAA I NEED MY OLD ENGLISH WORDS THINE PUSSY AINT SLAIN
nice
tl;dr
however, normies say "cinema" to describe the same thing more and more recently
Whenever Ganker hypes up a game and the only words they used to describe it is kino, based, and filtered you know it's trash.
Hi Barry!
It's a good game, I don't know if it's KINO ELDEN SISTERS BTFO like Ganker shitposting makes it out to be, but if you like action games and/or Final Fantasy it's a fun ride
Sage + Void Knight carried me through the last half of the game. Holy damage breaks frickers like you wouldn't believe, and buffing Spirit wasn't hard to do. Plus, Void Knight got extra mana from Soul Shields and Soul Bursts.
not an rpg

Meds.
Cope.
Rope.
Does the multiplayer let you play as the other characters or does it just give you another Jack
>kino
Fricking new Black folk
It's a very video game ass plot. And we need more of that instead of every game trying to be an oscar movie.
SoP was a great time and my favorite arpg since Bloodborne, but I probably won't replay it anytime soon. The framerate on base model PS4 was so bad and I heard it also got really bad even on modern consoles. Was going to do more playthroughs but I will wait till I get a PS5 for FF16 until I play it again. 30fps is not ideal for any action game so the sometimes mid to low 20's was just awful.
Yeah, I the technical issues were bad. I played it on PC and it straight up crashed a dozen times. It crashed enough I started to use that as my sign to stop playing and go walk my dog.
It's definitely not friendly to low or midline machines. If you've got a high-end one, though, it's pretty solid.
Has the PC port been unfricked at all
It's gotten a few updates to improve performance, but it still struggles on cheap computers.
Define unfricked. I played it and didn't run into any issues. Never crashed and never lagged.
Any news on the DLCs and future patches for performance? I tried the demo on ps4 and liked it a lot despite the technical issues. Now the game's reasonably discounted on amazon (around 40 bucks) and we know they're trying to fix performance with the latest patch for example so I'd like to support the devs but still I'd rather wait until at least the first DLC before buying it.
I legit have not seen a single fricking soul irl or on youtube or anywhere talk about this game since demo
it must have fricking sucked
