Hi-Fi Rush

Why did Hi-Fi Rush fail? Will we even get a sequel given Microsoft's disappointment with sales numbers?

      It's 2024, anon. You just need to say an anonymous source that maybe has been around people from the industry at some point said something to you, a no nothing writer with no credibility, and then you get to write a click bait article about it with no oversight.

        Did you even play the game fricker
        Most of it is a brawler where you take advantage of the rhythm system to do extra damage but there's constant little interruptions where your character gets immobilized in a brief cinematic and has to hit specific buttons immediately or get fricked

          I don't see what the issue is, it's no different than charging up a move. You're just prompted to wait for two beats and hit the button.
          You DO know what combo you're doing and you don't mash, right?

    I genuinely don't see the point in buying or playing any games after Undertale. Gaming is solved, there's no point in trying. People that continue to make games are basically trying to reinvent the wheel.

    I just waited for a sale, because it wasn't this big title I was waiting for. Still bought it, and it's fun. Having played it now... I wouldn't have felt bad if I had paid full price for how bombastic and pleasant it is.

        Yes, it’s as bad as any action game throwing in random bullshit qte events to break up the gameplay.

          the qte stuff doesn't feel bad at all, that other anon is just ass mad that it wasn't just a hack and slash action game

          I didn't think the QTEs were that bad. During combat you'll get a few prompts during special attacks but it wasn't too egregious. There are rhythm game sections where bosses and mini bosses stop the fight to make you play Simon though, those get annoying.

          i have avoided qte heavy games for since the 360, i really don't mind them if used sparingly and the game is good.

    I remember people shilling the shit out of this game when it first dropped. Shills would ridicule anyone criticizing the game telling them that they'll never get the game on PS5. Hilarious how picrel happened and the game is still considered a mediocre flop.

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask or if this is a question that should even be asked. I heard that FFXVI is kinda basic and barebones in terms of gameplay. I thought HFR is kinda basic and barebones in terms of gameplay. Are these two games comparable to each other gameplay-wise?

    I'm looking forward to when the PC version drops and if it's at least the same as HFR (I really liked the rhythm gimmick) in regards to depth then I think I'll be okay with it.
