People wanted Sci-Fi souls. Not Industrial Souls where you're forced to play around in some ugly, fat looking exo suit.

When we say Sci-Fi, we generally mean shit like Deus Ex, Blade Runner or Cyberpunk.

Yeah, it's not like you actually drop your equivalent of souls on the ground, have to go back there to pick it up or it will disappear once you die again, you unlock savepoints that are basically just bonfires, the whole world is interconnected with areas where you fight bosses at the end that also have a huge healthbar, you actually have a set amount of healing items that refils everytime you rest at savepoints / you die and so on.

Dark Souls but with basically the same setting as the CoD game with Kevin Spacey and instead of being good it's bad.

Sure.
>>
>>377208540
Fuck that, I prefer my sci-fi to be more rugged, hard, grim and realistic. Neon lights and hypermodern design just doesn't do it for me.

So as far the art style and the visual setting goes, this game fucking nailed it. Too bad the story is uninteresting and the protagonist is boring loser. If you're gonna make the protagonist non-customizable, at least make him interesting.
>>
>>377208071

I'm enjoying it.

It would've been nice tho if they clearly hinted at the goddamn "Perfect State" Condition when being rewarded boss weapons.

I never played LoTF I'm not going to go buy it so I know they've got some bullshit mechanism in place that gives you the proper boss weapon over a busted one.

>Don't use PAX's rockets to kill it
>Beat it's legs to death until they're armorless then trip it by striking one of the exposed legs when it's trying to stomp you.

>Gives you a pristine PAX Blade

>Same thing for that firefly boss
>Completely amputate all it's appendages in order to get it's perfect weapon.


I'm not sure what it is for the rest of the bosses.

I also don't really like the Implant system. You should be able to fuse Implants into better functioning implants.

>Finding 6 fucking healing tier 1 Injectors.

I mean, I like the core mechanics. The armor thing's cool. Tying up executions to salvaging parts is cool. I like the energy system's general versatility, and how it encourages the Bloodborne-ish constant attacking thing. I like how there's a fuckton of mechanics tied to the core power/leveling system, the armor/implants taking slots, the whole gating by overcharging thing, and so on.
There's a lot to like about the core mechanics.

And I actually like the industrial, sci-fi aesthetic too, but there's really nothing much beyond that. The enemy variety's really underwhelming too. And as much as I appreciate how well the level is designed, how well signposted they are, and how there's a lot of cool shit like seeing how things connect via cables and pipes and shit, it gets kinda boring when you don't actually care about the setting and the story they're telling, the uniformity of the design just gets irritating, not in a good way.

And not to mention the bosses. Yeesh.

I kinda understand why most of /v/ probably doesn't like this game, but it's exactly what I wanted it to be. It scratches a very certain itch that I've had ever since I played Dark Souls for the first time.

Dark futuristic industrial complexes filled with augmented zombies, satisfying and visually pleasing combat, properly scaled difficulty level and plenty of different cool looking weapons and armor. I've only played for like 7-8 hours though, so I have no idea if it falls flat in the later stages, but I'm cautiously optimistic still...

Yeah, and I've only beaten 2 of them so far and I have 8 and a half hours on my counter. So I think it's safe to say I have at least another 8 hours of gameplay.

So that's not even half ? What do you consider to be not-later stages then? The very first one only?

>>377209843

No, its not. Areas become incredibly short after the third boss, and the fourth and fifth boss are one right after another. You've got at best three more hours.

Okay so lets assume you're right and the guys correcting you are wrong.

That still makes it a 16 hour game with 4 real bosses and a gimmicky endboss that might as well be a cutscene.

How much does this thing cost again?

The first time I thought it was shit
The second time I thought it was okay looking but not worth $50
The last time I thought it looked janky as fuck, the camera was all over the place and the tracking on the attacks looked weird

The game just seems really clunky, and the gear/leveling etc. mechanics might not be enough to save it.

10hrs in and I'm enjoying it.
I might buy even buy it when it's on sale just to support the devs.

I normally don't quit games because it feels casual to do so, but in this case I made an exception.
I died after I rebooted the system before the first boss and when I went back to get my scrap the boss spawned, lost 6k scrap that way.
Boss killed me twice by clipping me into his body and had me dying from falldamage of all things.
In the dark section they constantly tell me to turn on my lights, but without a body piece I can't.
It started really promissing but I feel like there is way too much bullshit that drags it down.
>>
>>377211075
Why don't you have a body piece?
>>
>>377210420
Fuck off m8, you were only talking about aesthetics in the first place.

>>
>>377211154
Never got a drop and can't craft one, no blueprint.
>>
>>377211075
Get a body piece anon, the parts you need can be reclaimed from body parts of the trash mobs. But I don't blame you if you want to drop the game though, it's pretty fucking boring so far. It's neat and I like the UI but good lord I hope something will start drawing me into it. Right now I'm still liking the combat gimmick but that can only last for so long.
>>
>>377211263
Did you miss all the tutorials telling you to target specific body parts and do executions?
>>
>>377210525
>No, there's no punk in it. It's closer to Deadspace except with exosuits instead of Necromorphs.
The line is pretty blurry in this post-cyberpunk era but still if your complaint is "I want something with an atmosphere similar to Deus Ex" this doesn't seem very far off the mark. Especially the prequels, which are far more traditionally cyberpunk anyway, in that they have less of the conspiracy kitchen sink stuff and focus more on the effects of augmentation on society. Hell, The Surge and Human Revolution seem to pretty much share one big plot point about the dangers of putting foreign objects in your body that are ultimately not owned by you but someone else. Turning people into zombies is just the ultimate expression of those dangers.

I'm not stupid. When I got to the dark parts I went back to kill some mobs with body executions for the blueprints, 20 mobs no prints.

>>
>>377215915
In this day and age a game can't even considered a real game unless it has at least one of those things. If it doesn't have either they're literally selling a damned beta as far as I'm concerned.
>>
>>377208071
Sci-fi Souls would be cool, but this is just ass. No character creation and the default character is just some boring short haired gruff space marine.

The aesthetics suck ass. Jumpsuits, big bulky exoskeletons, stupid arm weapon attachments, shitty level design where every area looks the same.
>>
Dunno what people are smoking, but this is way worse than Lords of the Fallen.

The first 15 minutes of LotF had more story, customization options, equipment variety, interesting enemies, good level design, secrets and memorable bosses than anything I saw in 3 hours playing The Surge. Armor is basically useless, as there's almost no difference between light and heavy armor - you usually die in 2-3 hits anyway. The targeting & slicing thing is interesting at first, but the system behind it is entirely based on grinding. And all the optional challenges, detailed item lore and magical gems were removed. All there's to see here is the unusual sci-fi setting and the targeting mechanic. Once the novelty wears off, you just have a bland Souls clone.
>>
played it for 5 hrs straight last night

actually really enjoying it. combat is both fast and yet has some heft to it.

blocking seems completely useless since you can't strafe while doing so, wish they removed it completely (a la bloodborne), maybe making the whole ducking/jumping mechanic easier to pull off.

level design is really good, i prefer this over the latter Dark Soul's disjointed world. areas tend to loop back on themselves, so far there's been 1 'bonefire' and a few different paths leading back to it in one way or another.

the game was too dark by default imo, had to bump up brightness so i could actually see shit.

really nice presentation, the animations are amazing imo. the second boss especially, the way to spun along w/ the motion blur made it really intimidating.

only niggle so far is enemy variety and the fact that they tend to do the 'hide enemy in annoying place so he gets the jump on you' a lot.

will prob play some more after Prey.

It's not a souls like game. Souls didn't invent lock-on, souls didn't invent hard hitting enemies, souls didn't invent maps with unlockable short cut routes. Please kill yourselves.

You don't get it. People didn't want a "sci-fi souls game" at all. They wanted a GOOD sci-fi souls game. Good non sci-fi suls, or a good non-souls would be fine too, but a non-good sci-fi souls just doens't cut it, see. Good is the only truly important part and Surge omits it entirely.

Hope that's clear now.

if it had come from ANYONE except the devs for lords of the fallen, I would legitimately be interested

I played LOTF (pic related), for an RPG it's really short, it's not that challenging, the movement of everything is really slow and clunky, the art design was uninspired

it's like a 6/10, so why would I be hyped for this?
>>
>>377214792
Maybe it's 2DEEP4ME I know, but the aesthetic and general pacing of the Souls games are so dull to me, LoTF spiced it up a little with that Michael Bay Western Injection (TM) and had a mostly coherent plot to follow.

Reminded me of TOOTHMAN a lot as well, which I thought was a lot of cheesy fun as a kid.

Absolute joke of a story, for one, but the combat was not nearly as good as what it was trying to emulate. The most effective strategy in LotF was to tank and spank, really. Spells were really abuse-ready in some cases, so you could just sit back and totally destroy a boss anyway. It's like Nioh. The core concept was totally fine, but after a while everything just got extremely old and didn't have nearly the same level of polish or atmosphere that any of the Souls games do.

It doesn't just need the developer name attached to it it needs Miyazaki.

That is why
Titan souls
Lords of the fallen

Have nothing to do with action games. You measure the success of a game sales wise within the genre, you shit-eating cunt.

Not on PC. Nioh outsold Nier Automata on PC 3:1. Looks like people on consoles are actually 3 times as likely to pick up quality games than PC users. Btw if you say a million overall while PC only contributed 300k of those sales it still means that console users overall buy more quality games than pc users.
