>>376928167
I agree. Most of the game was was artificial difficulty because the camera was shit on the melee phase and when you went behind a boss and also enemy projectiles didn't contrast well with the environment.

>>376930075
The pie chart segments did have their flaws but calling it artificial difficulty is stupid especially since you can skip them all if you know what you're doing. The bullets contrast really well, you must be blind or something.

>>376931057
1. That's not a bullet
2. You know there are purple ones too and you just didnt post it
3. You can see that just fine
4. The bullets actually DO contrast, especially in that particular fight.

Cecilia D'Anastasio Is The Wrong Kind Of Bad At Video Games

>>376928167
If she's complaining about having to redo the whole boss after losing then I'd agree. After failing a segment once I don't think I ever failed it a second time and the early phases were always the most boring, which made it even worse having to replay them the most.

I also really hate nier style games because they hurt my hands but I will admit furi having the best combat out of any of them because you couldn't just spam shoot to win all the fights.

Those blue projectiles are yours you idiot, also yeah the final boss is the only place where that remark applies but the projectiles come out in such a predictable manner that you really can't blame the game for getting hit.

>>376930519
a woman has an opinion

>>376931809
This is the actual legit complaint. The game was way too easy half the time, and if you fucked up on a later part have fun sitting through five minutes of mind-numbing easy early life bars again just to try the part that actually challenged you again.

Also the music was overrated as fuck.

>>376931967
>Those blue projectiles are yours you idiot
They're not, and thanks for proving my point that you literally can't differentiate.

>>376931358

That's horrible contrast.

Does the whole game look that bad?

>>376931809
>having to redo the whole boss after losing

But it uses a completely fair life system where if you lose all your health, you lose a life but get to just restart that phase at full health. And I think I remember also gaining a life whenever you beat a phase anyway, so losing to a phase once is okay.

>nier style games

Top fucking tier bait.

>>376928167
I dunno if it was my machine or what, but when I played, it there was so much input lag it became infuriating. Other than that, the camera would mess you up.

No. All the screenshots are compressed low quality garbage so all the definition in the game gets lost.

They are dumbass, she's shooting a stream of yellow projectiles while the blue ones, the ones you're complaining about, are clearly coming from the player object.

That wouldn't fix the terrible use of color though.

I don't read trash

I dropped the game on sniper bitch. Her last phase was too annoying.

>>376932617
this is only the second level, and it's perfectly playable

>>376932371
>But it uses a completely fair life system where if you lose all your health
Don't see how this matters unless you expect players to not get a game over ever. The problem is that the difficulty spikes too hard on the last phases in a lot of fights. Could fix it by making the early phases more difficult/more engaging.

>>376932617
well everything gets washed out. the actual game is a lot more readable except for maybe the final boss.

furi is bad, not because its hard, but because it controls like wet noodles

>>376933015

I haven't seen a single frame of the game that didn't look hideous due to the color scheme. Being indie is no an excuse for bad art design.

>>376933337
It controls fine, you just have to get used to the dodge being activated on button release. It's a bit uncomfortable but I don't see how else they're supposed to implement a dash you can charge. Plus once you get the hang of it, it's pretty intuitive.

>The game made fun of me for playing Easy Mode :(
https://pastebin.com/M7HGBGmr

>>376933526
thats true but furi doesnt have bad art design

By all means, the game is cool and all, but there's a lot of little shit that happens in the game that piss me off. The control scheme enough is horrible, in my opinion. Almost every button's placement feels unnatural and convoluted in it's execution. Yeah, merging two genres is cool and all, and what they tried to do with Furi was a fantastic idea, but executed so poorly. Like just minor tweaks to the game in general would make it playable. My main problem with the game is that it takes a breathe of a second for your block to function, and you can't do a "Just Guard" the second you get hit, like DMC or Bayo. Inb4 this is a bad mechanic, but it raises the skill cap just by having it. Making blocking a setup and not reactionary is some fuckin' hard shit to wrap my head around. Dodging in the game is also fucky, in my opinion, too. Who the fuck thought dodging was a good idea in a bullet hell is beyond me. It's a poor excuse for hitboxes being shit.

>>376928167

Looks like sort of controversial title for an article about a "hard" video game, the kind that will incite you to click and read it.
I like the game the article is about.

>>376933705
nothing wrong with the parry at all. it is reactionary, you just suck. I know its a generic thing to say but its true.

>nearly decade old article

i hope /v/ gets deleted

>>376933124
That's what furier difficulty is for. On furi the first phases are practically to introduce the boss mechanics.

>>376933705
It is reactionary, did you play at 30 fps or some shit? Where is this coming from. Also you considering it a bullet hell game (it isn't) doesn't mean it shouldn't have dodges. The dodges are actually the most interesting part of it, I can't think of a single game that had a charged dodge mechanic like Furi does, it makes simple dodging into a risk vs reward decision and also builds some interesting challenges around that.

What the fuck, that actually sounds very polite.

>>376934283
Furier is what I'm talking about though, Furi's easy enough for that to never be a problem but Furier has shit like The Line and The Burst with their difficult final phases but easy overall fights.

Can you point to any actual criticism of the game in this thread? None of the images posted have projectiles that are hard to see at all especially when playing the game yourself.
In fact, that boss actually has an attack that does break the general rules of the game but it's a melee attack, if he actually played the game he would be complaining about that attack instead but since he hasn't played it himself (all of the images have filenames that indicate he took them from /v/ or other online sources instead of being his own).

I really don't mind someone disliking a game for any legitimate reasons, but this is just low effort bait to try and get a niche fanbase angry.

How so? There is literally nothing resembling Samurai Jack, it's closer to Afro Samurai than Samurai Jack, if I remember correctly the same guy who desgined characters for Afro Samurai designed characters for Furi. None of the characters, locations nor story itself are similar to SJ, the only thing they have in common is a fucking katana.

Also, new SJ season is dogshit, the whole atmosphere and pacing of the original is gone, at least first 3 episodes were pretty good but as soon as Ashi becomes major character everything turns into a cringy love story.

>>376928365
I bet you can't even get past the first boss lmao

>>376928167
Furi's first half is really easy on normal, you can farm heals so easily with the parry system.

Literally git gud, you have no excuse.

The final boss shoots both blue and yellow orbs in that screenshot. No matter what you'd have to be completely blind and not paid attention to the rest of the game to actually understand what needs to be done and execute it.

My experience with FURIs first boss
>get rekt for a while because I get greedy while attacking
>tell myself to relax and play it safe
>kill boss first try after that
WRONG KIND OF HARD

Only bad mechanic in Furi, is that hard melee segments are over in seconds(damage buff, chargeable), while ranged segments are gigantic time sinks due no real damage output.

Beyond that, its a amazing game.

>>376941023
What they're saying about it.

>>376941968
Most of the phases have completely different attacks however, you generally don't see the same attacks repeated between them.

>>376933590

Games should mock for picking easy mode. You're being a bitch who refuses to learn how to play the game. I remember in Ninja Gaiden Black you unlock Ninja Dog by dying three times on the first level. If you give up and pick Ninja Dog, Ayane insults you and says that you're clearly not as good as she expected and talks down to you.

>>376942956
Revolver Ocelot mocked you in MGS1 if you died to him too many times.

>>376928257

>>376942865
That's not true and you know it. There are entirely different phases from each other and there are some that incorporate previous movesets. I love the game but dont lie to people.
