How does /v/ feel about this game?

It's a meme game. I don't waste my time with those.

It's a great game

>>376963624
All style, no substance, was unfun at 30fps and enjoyable at 60. Pretentious and bland throughout, but neat combat and sometimes enjoyable atmosphere.

Exploration and finding secrets doesn't feel rewarding, feels like a grind

it's meh

Kamiko is better

personal 2016 GOTY. Really enjoyed it.

Wish it was longer.

>>376963624
Kinda made me sick play it. Was pretty much unfun of a game

Is it just me or does that chain dash have some fucked up timing on it?

cant get more like like 5 in a row down and only like once?

any issue other than to git gud?

>>376963889
GOTY of 2016 doesn't mean much at all, though, especially given it's still a bad game.

What this anon said
It's style over substance. It's main pillars are combat and exploration and it does neither that particularly well
Combat is fun on paper but the 30FPS limit on that makes the game unplayable, especially when FPS drops start showing up. In any game that requires as much focus as HLD, any framedrops at all are inexcusable. The 60FPS patch makes it better (and actually fun) but that's not in any pirated version of the game yet and isn't on consoles (which is how I played it) so it's too little too late
Exploration sucks and hunting for shit is a chore.
While the game looks great, it just isn't enough to carry the game past those two weak pillars

>>376963624
I played the demo, liked it.
I haven't gotten around to buy it though, I'll probably get it on PS4 soon though.

Can anyone recommend a similar game that doesnt have this kind of cluster fuck art style?

Like its hard to focus on shit as intently as the game wants you to when everything looks like it was puked out of an 8bit machine

>>376964135
No, chain dashing is fucked period.
Game runs at 30 FPS and has framedrops, so chaining dashes is super tough.

>>376964698
Similar in what way? Like Furi? Like The Void? Like how?

>>376963803
Nailed it

>>376963803
There's a mod for 60 fps?

>>376964752
similar in gameplay is more what i meant

Its fun when you dont lose your own guy in all the style getting in the way of combat

>>376963624

game for pedophiles

>>376964835
No, but the Steam and PS4 versions now run at 60FPS.
The game is borderline unplayable otherwise and can give a nigga motion sickness

>>376964705
Good

So i have an excuse for feeling fucking autistic playing this game

It's good. Beautiful art style and music with fun frenetic gameplay but it's a bit on the short side. People will tell you its locked at 30 fps but that's been patched since release to have it go to 60 so dont listen to them.

To be totally honest you could probably find something better that has more value but HLD is worth your time if you're interested.

Out of all youtube gaming channels, this one is not even one of the worst. At least it's not some dumb SJW/redditor crap.

I liked it, 8/10 bretty gud

>>376965971
It's the same premise. Does "LOVE THE SUNSET" mean anything different than Japanese characters meaning "Sunrise Land"?
It's probably because it looks cool.

>>376965503
He is by far the hardest boss, though there are mini-bosses towards the end of the game that are harder.

>>376965503
He's probably the hardest because he's the only one without absolutely predictable patterns. Final boss is a literal joke in comparison

>>376963624
played it for 6 minutes. it's stupid, don't like the control

>>376964135
good luck getting 850 in a row.

I thought the game was well done, the worlds felt empty and atmospheric. the hub village had plenty of interesting things to do. hidden areas werent very well done, usually they were obvious. keys and modules were confusing as shit and hardly paid any attention to them until the very end. the outfit changes were pointless locked away behind aforementioned key module shits. The bosses were fun and challenging the combat was ....GOOD! you could get raped hard but you could be flashy as fuck with proper reflex and strategy. one time i died at a boss and it glitched out so when i went back the boss was dead. the final boss was stupid super easy.the mini bosses were fun. the checkpoint system could screw you if you only had one hp and no nearby medkits. literally have no desire to go back and find all the outfits and weapons i missed, as long as i got my shottie and starting pistol.

>>376963624
looks old, shitty color scheme and pixelated retro garbage trying to capitalize on the golden era of vidya

shit

>>376964218
Why is the exploration not fun? Genuinely curious because I was planning on getting this if I ever saw it on sale.

>>376965781
Fuck off, Georgie

Great game. Worth playing.

>>376966197
They hide shit in either esoteric nonsense locations or obvious places, and they only reward you with useless stuff.
Wandering around off the beaten path is boring but the actual act of exploring the world is neato

>>376965503
one of the easier bosses imo beat him first try

i agree about what the one anon said about those last few mini bosses, those were fun as fuck.

I found the combat and rhythm-based movement extremely satisfying.

Every else is shit, especially eye-cancerous graphics

>>376963803
>Exploration and finding secrets doesn't feel rewarding, feels like a grind
This especially. There is nothing indicating there is a secret nearby. You have to hug the walls in every single map and hope you get lucky and find a secret there. There are no visual indicators anywhere.
I'll add that unresponsive controls break a fucking action game. Overall 5/10 eh.

He was the first boss I fought and that fight made me love the game. It's a shame the other bosses weren't as hard.

You have to do a lot of secret hunting to unlock the other combat challenges. HLD does teasers and hints in a fairly textbook game design way, but I'm glad they added additional secret symbols so they aren't so ridiculously obscure.

Well, now you're just fucking lying.
Or just bad at games.
Either way, the shit you're spewing from your mouth is invalid.

>>376964135
>>376964705
>>376966169
Then what the fuck is the point of having that shit?

Like you have to have perfect timing in frantic combat for it to maybe give you an advantage?

I thought it was just supposed to chain together your three dashes more quickly

What a pointless waste

>>376966869
>a game full of vomit inducing pixel shit
>please pay attention to this particular shitty pixel

>>376967213
Hey, you're the one who chose to play it when you could tell by the cover that it clearly wasn't for you.
Go back to COD or Madden, broseph

>>376966869
Go to any of the cave segments. The only way to find secrets there is to hug the walls that are identical to each other.
One exception does not disprove the rest of the bullshit in the game.

>>376967509
The cave parts however are the one exception where you can't see the square.
It's there 19/20 times.
Start getting better at recognizing shit man
You could have enjoyed it more if you weren't so focused on being retarded.
It's not like you paid for it anyway, I'm guessing.

>>376965026
sauce

>>376965367
I loved the game but it's not long enough to justify its full price unless you love it enough to play it a bunch of times through (I did, but it's not like you can tell before buying).

>>376964135
Chain dash timing becomes faster the more you do it, with 4 phases. The first few are at about .25 to .4 seconds or something like that, and past 5 it is more like .15 to .25s as the viable window. If you set up an AHK script to just press space every .25s and put the mouse on the line you will reach 850 dashes, but anything lower or higher and you'll irregularly get between 4 and 6 to work.

I tested this back before 60fps so I dunno if it got changed at some point.

Anyone ever figure out what the green/blue cloak does, or is it still pretend making dashing easier?

>>376967864
>You did not spot these tiny little squares in a game full of fucking pixelshit art

2/10 made me reply.

>>376963624
worth a pirate, short with absolutely 0 replayability

>>376968273
he still can't recognize the obvious

>>376968146
I asked google and they said cartoon network.

Animates like overblown crap and has poor readability.

>>376964705
>All these FPS issues and bugs
The game was polished a lot after release. I had no serious bugs in 20+ hours of play and the controls feel great.

i got to a conclusion

some people enjoyed and some people need to git gud

and there are the ones that just don't give af

>>376970687
