What happened? Last I saw was the first demo and it looked pretty good.

A kickstarter game being shit is so unsurprising now that it's not even enough to outrage people. It's pretty much expected that all kickstarter games will be flops

>>376166425
Christ, it looks worse than Abyss Odyssey

>>376166425
Ah yes, the same webm that keeps being posted over and over again

>>376166328
>>376166425
Why do devs keep falling for the 2.5D meme? I understand sprites are expensive but they can't be THAT expensive, right? So expensive that they'd rather just make their game look like garbage? The sprites don't need to be SOTN-level quality.

because it shows how terrible the game is. And it's the last time we've seen gameplay footage.

Admit it. Iga-san is just another slimy businessman/conman like Inafune-san.

>>376166328
reminder: it's already at 5,5 million

>>376166654

It's not price. A low resolution 2D game can be done very cheaply. Iga specifically avoided 2D because a modern professional console game is high resolution, not low. Doing HD sprites is costly and time consuming. 3D however, can be scaled at any resolution.

The mistake however, is thinking that low resolution 2D shouldn't be done anymore or people won't buy it. In fact, Shovel Knight showed that idea is wrong.

>>376166425
Looks like the beginnings of exactly what I want.

>>376166702
> how terrible the game is

The gameplay was already proven to be good though.

>>376166328
What happened?

Man, 2018 can't arrive soon enough. I want to play this game so bad.

Little known answer you might not wanna hear. The amount of 2D metroidvanias directed by Igga from start to finish: 0. Symphony was only an Assistant Directoral role, as he finished the game half way through after Toru Haighara left. He is a PRODUCER not a DIRECTOR. Its looks like might have been more on the business side of things during his time at Konami.

>Castlevania:Symphony Of The Night - Toru Hagihara
>Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow - Junichi Murakami
>Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance - Takashi Takeda
>Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow - Satoshi Kushibuchi
>Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin - Satoshi Kushibuchi
>Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia -Akihiro Minakata

/v/ fell yet again for the businessman-Producer meme.

I will never understand /v/'s obsession with pixels.
I'll rather have actual graphics that overstretched shitty-looking pixels; If I wanted that I would emulate something from the arcade era.

>>376167070
Inafune directed a bunch of Mega Man games and was the game designer/artist for many more.

>>376166425
Looks fine to me.

>>376166425
The movement looks sluggish and shitty. The models and background are ugly and void of character

>Inafune directed a bunch of Mega Man games

Inafune directed ZERO games in his life. He was an artist/producer. That's it. And he's not even the only artist or producer for the series. His importance was massively inflated.

>>376167070
Those damn crafty nips done fooled us again!

>>376166425
Unity was a mistake

>>376167070
and this asshole has the nerve to name a genre after himself

>>376167335

It's Unreal Engine 4. But it doesn't matter. These free engines all look the same.

>>376167136
A japanese dude working for microsoft is treason
Seriously, hideki kamiya is literally a westaboo as fuck. fuck this conman too

>>376167493
to be fair, it doesn't looks like a UE4 game at all

Jesus, I keep seeing this posted & feel so stupid, what's wrong with it?

>>376167247
This man is a bigger conman than Inafune.
He took millions from Microsoft, and did shit with it.
MS was smart enough to realize he was a hack and pulled out before wasting millions more on him and his scamming studio.

>>376167995
Should have just did sprites like every other Inti Creates game.

>>376168287
Taking money from Microsoft is virtuous.

>>376167689
>left looks like a European
>right looks like an Asian
Huh?

>>376166328
I literally see nothing wrong with this game. The last gameplay looked great. >>376166425
If your referring to this. It doesn't look that bad to me.

>>376168287
>scamming studio

Except Platinum is well-known for making games on a budget. They made three different titles (of varying quality but they were speedily developed and release) with Activision. They also have good relationships with Nintendo, Sega, and Square-Enix. And yet somehow your immediate conclusion is that Platinum is to blame and not Microsoft.

>>376168824
Yes the company that was funding the game is to blame not the one managing the budget and developing it.
You do know there is not a difference between pretending to be retarded and actually being retarded?

>>376170198
You really think the biggest issue with the game was just budget management? Did you see that framerate? The main character's design? The obviously tacked-on co-op features? You're naive if you think Kamiya did all of that purely of his own accord. When Platinum has great industry relationships across the board EXCEPT with Microsoft, then fuck yes I'm going to blame Microsoft.

>You do know there is not a difference between pretending to be retarded and actually being retarded?

The lack of self-awareness is staggering.

Sweetie please think before you type

>>376170480
Jesus it's like you don't know about Kamiya before Platinum.
Newfags should stick to reddit

>>376166425
What's the point of having a character so appealing if it's so badly animated? It looks cheap as fuck

>>376166425
I think except for retarded colour scheme everything looks good. They really need to get shading and colours right, rest if fine.

>>376166450

There it is again.The lie. Here's your (you).

>>376170198
Publishers can engage in executive meddling that changes the direction/scope of the project and causes you lose time/waste resources.
If you've ever worked a contract job before you have experienced something similar to this, and you know it.

>>376166702
That actually didn't show fucking anything. I have never heard of this game, and based off that webm it doesn't show literally anything that could imply the game is good or bad.

>>376170909

>>376170198
I really want you simpletons to stop downplaying the utter importance of a producer.

>>376166328

It's turning out exactly like I expected it to. Not sure what I "fell" for here.

>>376166450

A couple of my favorite games more recently were kickstarted.

>>376166539

I thought Abyss Odyssey looked pretty good.

>>376172016
>dante wasn't edgy before dmc3
Bravo

>>376166328

>Please make this game fail!!

Love this kikestarter hivemind meme.

>>376166328
Looks good tbqh and I have faith in iga.

>>376166328
I'm really pulling for this game to do well. I want ro see a sequel with actual sprites instead of 3d models.

>>376172578
Also looking forward to the old man with a book. Hope he is a holy man with crazy spell magic.

>>376166804
Shovel Knight was low-res 8-bit.

The kind of 2D that would have been expected is somewhat between the PC-Engine and DS Castlevania games or higher.

It's funny how the gameplay > graphics meme doesn't matter when /v/ just wants to be angry at things.

>>376170909
DMC is more proof Kamiya can't stick to a games original design document. It was originally supposed to be Resident Evil 4, but Kamiya failed completely at making a second Resident Evil that Capcom was forced to market it as a new IP.

>>376172840
>The kind of 2D that would have been expected is somewhat between the PC-Engine and DS Castlevania games or higher.

And for 5 million they could do it. The most polished fucking 2D game ever. The Castlevanias only cost 1 million each.

>>376172934
>graphics don't matter even when they look like shit
You're only fooling yourself by saying bad graphics don't detract from a games overall quality.

>>376168287
wow, microsoft fantards actually exist.

the more you know, eh?

>>376173094
No.

They couldn't. 2D isn't a fly-by-night job, especially for animations and the few that do it are either retired or in high enough demand to be costly at it.

>>376173156
>it's fine when my favorite nip developers scam companies who are funding games
Were you fine with Gearbox scamming SEGA as well?

>>376173152
Nothing is worse than Top Banana, anon.

>>376166328
>People fell for this too
Game might be look bad. But I'm waiting until they show combat.
That's the real life or death of this project.

>>376173356
I dont even know what you are talking about.

>>376173291
Drinkbox made a great metroidvania in Guacamelee.

>>376173618
Not him but neogaf is that a way >>>>>

>>376173662
Guacamelee motion tweened vector shit. It's fine for Guacamelee because the art direction favors that look.

Look at the art of Bloodstained and tell me with a straight face that'll be just as effective.

game isnt out yet, stop being a shitter
might b good, might suck, i backed the potential of a new castlevania and would do so again, if the actual creators were involved, and not just some bait and switch

also i backed psychonauts 2, too, because, its fucking psychonauts 2.

i have money, and im sure you bought and paid for some completely awful fucking things like babbys first early access game, and still fucking buy shitty never going to release games on steam's garbage fucking early access program, which is nothing more than flat out lies

>>376174282
I bought King's Quest VIII, Diablo 3, and Brink.
These are my great shames.

>yet another thread trying to "prove" that Bloodstained will be shit
>everyone, yet again, says it's completely fine
>there was even a demo (or two, I think) which proved the gameplay to be fine too

Do people these days expect nothing less of a masterpiece? Is a good game just not good enough anymore?

>>376166328
Having played the demo we fell for nothing. Feels good to play, systems are promising, takes everything we love from each of the Castlevania games and packs them together into a single game.
I'm optimistic.

>>376174561
brink was a good game just playerbase were fucking retards expecting some braindead game like overwatch

>>376174282
The hopeful thinking is strong in this post

>>376166539
Is Abyss Odyssey not good? I wanted to get it because I thought it looked neat

Someone post the big titty sea monster waifu boss from the demo.

>>376174803
I liked it. I think the animation is kind of janky, but it's a budget title.

>>376174803
Not that anon but Abyss Odyssey is fine. It might look a bit "flash animation-y" but still looks great, the animations are okay and the combat is well thought out
I personally didn't really like it due to a fairly heavy emphasis on rogue-like elements, basically requiring you to farm

>>376173745
>actually knowing anything gearbox related besides like 1 game

I think you are the one who needs to go

And then the thread died. Nice try OP, see you tomorrow

>>376166425
looks like a bad flash game

>>376176463
give us an example

>>376176523
Your favorite game.

>>376176523
any basic platformer. graphics are ok but so what.

nice examples

>>376174803
I uninstalled it after 10 minutes. It might not have been garbage, but there was an almost tangible amateurish/low-budget feel to just about every aspect, from the art to the writing to the animations and the way it controlled.

>>376168262
No dude you don't understand man it's the next TORtanic we have to hate it now BEFORE it's cool.

>>376172105
And as you can clearly see that in that webm you can just download some absolutely vomit inducing garbage textures from the unity asset store for cheap.
