        it's pretty janky. Like pausing cutscenes doesn't pause dialogue janky but it's totally playable.
        I got it from gamestop earlier this week for xbox and they were running a buy one get one promo so I got this and another game for $30. I'd definitely get it on sale.

      It has actual male and female bathrooms instead of the "gender neutral bathrooms" homosexualry that keeps popping up in westoid games. I can't believe I have to bring that up, but that's how low some games have fallen. It also doesn't play itself and still provides some challenge on normal difficulty. Also, several shower scenes with the mc. It's like this game was designed to repel San Francisco "game journalists".

        Lmao THAT's all you need to play garbage, male/female bathrooms. Imagine having brain rot that deep that you'd play a shit ass game for bathrooms

          He's not even consistent with his brain rot because the MC is the tattooed so-strong-she-needs-no-man female MC you see so much on western media and she's even a single mother with an interracial kid.

          Maybe he didn't even play the game and only followed someone's Let's Play up to a certain point.

            >interracial
            We never see her kid. Just hear his voice on the phone. The brown kid who's mom was murdered is not her son. It seems to me like you're the one who didn't play the game. But cool cuckold head canon, America-kun. I bet you think Joosten's character is a troony too.

      that's pretty much accurate, i enjoyed it a lot partially despite the jank and partially because of it but its hard to recommend at full price.

      oh, shit. I didn't realize they were just former employees of itagaki.

      to be fair the guy that did direct it looks like he's been working with him and co-directing ng/doa stuff since the 90s, but yeah as far as i can tell itagaki didn't have a personal role on it (or at least a credited one)

    It feels like a more realized version of what they were trying to do with Devil's Third gameplay-wise, with MC being able to switch between her main rifle, a second weapon, her pistol and her katana freely, mixed with bizarre Kojima-esque indulgences in the cutscenes; one of the loading screens is a recreation of supa hot fire with the game's cast, there's cutscenes of the main character getting food at the police station cafeteria that serves no purpose.

    It's not really jank in the conventional, jank implies there's corners that had to be cut because they didn't have the resources or budget, the same way you use the term for euro/slavjank or ecchi games.
    These guys absolutely had the budget to do everything they wanted, licensing shit like 99 Luftballoons

    Paying an anime studio to do a promotional music video set to "She works hard for the money"

    And a pretty catchy cover of Maniac

    Now, doing everything they did, did they make a 10/10 game? Nah but I think it's still worth at least trying on sale.

    This is a game that absolutely had zero input from marketers or a producer or even an editor, MC is a 7 foot tall Amazon with a cyborg arm and a katana, when was the last time you saw a main character that visually interesting, characters go off on weird ass tangents in dialogue. It's not a perfect mix of gunplay and swordfighting in spite of its best efforts, but it's still something worth experiencing.

              I'm not because I'm not trying to convince anons to buy a shitty game.
              The official material will always be biased towards the product and will try to sell it; note how none of those videos feature the actual, extremely bland and unpolished core gameplay.

              No, I don't talk about the games I like because I realized it's not my job to promote games and I was shilling for someone else's product FOR FREE.

      Hot robo girl with generic blades is the most popular scifi art there is these days. Not to mention that the main isn't even hot by cyberpunk standards.

    Why does the main girl look like they tried to turn her face into an anime face at the last minute? It's so weird. Everyone else looks pretty human but she's got the weirdest facial features.

      I think it's just the stiff and weird animations since she resembles her actress pretty closely. Joosten's character suffers for it too.

          Since Joosten is 5'6', maybe like 5'10 to 6 feet? Lot of models are tall.

        nah it's the model, she's stylized in a way the rest of the cast isn't. compare it to the cover illustration in the op for example, that's just a depiction of the actress.

      You're asking a question you already know the answer for.
      Every single time a game that came and went without making a single bip starts getting constant threads is because an e-celeb made a video or stream around it. Every single time.

    Just bought this for $30 and thought it was pretty kino. I wish there were a few more stages/bosses, but what was there was still fairly solid. It's no Ninja Gaiden Black, but playing a straightforward action game with b movie charm is almost something you can't get in 2023 anymore. This game reminded me of how much I miss action games from the 6th and 7th gen.

    This game is on par with something like Left Alive. It had potential but ruins it at every opportunity.
