>/v/ keeps dicksucking this game for years. >Gets a PC

You know what, I enjoyed that game, but I wouldn't say it's exactly great.
It's short as FUCK. Like indie walking simulator short - only takes 2-3 hours to beat. The enemy variety is pretty poor, some weapons are just plain inferior to the others, there's only like two proper bosses in the entire game.

glad you enjoyed it

>>378624894
:D

>>378625305
Even though I enjoyed the game, I have to say it's kind of disappointing campaign wise compared to Mikami's other games; especially the opening, which he usually nails. Vanquish campaign just doesn't quite have that ebb and flow Mikami's games have. I say this as somebody who also thinks Evil Within's disjointed and flip-flopping campaign is great

>>378625260
>YOU NEED TO PLAY IT ON SUPER DUPER ULTRA TURBO HARD MODE TO JUSTIFY THE GAME

Well, be ready for such replies. I've gotten the game in bargain bin during PS3 era and shit was lame as fuck, sold it back out to some other buyers at the same price i bought it used.
During near half way i realized the game isn't as good as people said and those people are PS3 owners too.
Skills isn't an issue, but the game's plain boring pacing and shit doesn't justify the hype. Maybe PS3 have no games was right all along.

>>378625635
I just wish the madman made a comeback. He's off from doing crazy shit like God Hand, and I don't think making another RE4 would have the same effect these days
He probably feels guilty for Clover

>>378625635
Agreed. I've loved this game since I first played it on the 360 back then but the campaign is pretty disappointing. It's a game with amazing mechanics but disappointing content. Like >>378625260 said, enemy variety is pretty poor, weapons in general needed a lot of reworking, the upgrade system is just ass, etc. I still love the game and there's really nothing like it at all but I definitely wish it had more going for it.

>>378625694
I just went through it on Hard yesterday, and honestly I didn't notice any differences from Normal. It didn't even change up any spawns, like Bayonetta did on Hard.
I understand that the intent was to prolong the game's lifetime by adding the online scoreboard for players to compete. But honestly I'm not that much into competitive stuff in single player games. And even then, the game offers no extra motivation for offline play at all, like Bayo did with Awards and unlocks. Hi-score is just a boring number next to your profile online.

They patched the damage/framerate issues now btw.

>>378625874
Exactly how i felt towards the game, well maybe for some people it's a turn-on for them.

Gray game with unsatisfying shooting mechanics.

>>378624894
Its a really fun game, but I'd say its far from great.

The game short, but that ain't the problem. The problem is that the games shines whenever you have large wide arenas to zip all over the place. But there are full sections on rails, or in tight corridors that don't really take advantage of the movement.

It definitely needs a sequel that combines this and Titanfall 2's wall-running/parkour, to make a legit all-out speed demon shooter

You already have your answer i guess.

I just need new souls game, not this crap desu

>>378627336
Ok.

Why are you in this thread then?

>>378627735
Why not, we soul fans are the kings of this board, every thread is our thread for us.

>>378627878
Soulshits are one of the worst fanbases on this boards, I'm not a fan of the series nor do I hate it but I've never seen a fanbase who gets so fucking angry over any sort of criticism.

It has a short but sweet campaign that you can can play like a standard cover shooter if you want, but there's advanced techniques you can learn to make the game more satisfying, add depth to the gameplay and therefore make you want to replay it again and again so the relatively short length doesn't really matter.

I'll take a game like Vanquish over a open world game that supposedly lasts 50+hours but only 5 of those hours are worth playing, the rest is just filler crap so companies can sell it to retards who fall for the open world meme every time.

>>378628368
>the rest is just filler crap so companies can sell it to retards who fall for the open world meme every time.
Well not everyone can play pacman or tetris 2d 50 hours repeatedly for the highscore. Some do, some don't. Some prefer side scrolling mario 50hrs high score, some prefer exploration 50hrs, some 50hrs farming loots, some prefer sneaking around 50hrs, some prefer getting meme'd 50hrs.

To each of it's own man. Video game is a fucking shitty meme to begin with, why waste time staring at the screen when you can go outside ?

>>378625260
I think he ment in terms of gameplay and combat to compared to literally all and every other third person shooter i mean for real compare the gameplay on god hard to uncharted or gears or any of the other shitshows.
Vanquise is the best based on that even with its shit lack of bosses and different enemies compared to other generes. This just shows if you let western failures dominate a genre they will not push gameplay systems in a future direction and this is how why vanquise is better it does not as faar as for example the jump form DMC1>DMC3 but at least its a jump you wont have that with muh gears shit..

>>378628798

Because games allow you to do to anything and everything you want, how long and often you want, that you otherwise would not be able to do for various reasons?

>>378625260
>It's short as FUCK.
Platinum games always have this problem. The harder difficulties mitigate it (some say eliminate it), but it's kind of a shame.
I mean the assets are there. Why not make an endgame dungeon, or VR mode, or joke add-on, or anything really.

I'm pretty surprised discussion about the PC port died so quickly.

In port begging threads Vanquish always seemed at the top of people's list, and games like Bayonetta not really. But in the end it seems Bayonetta was recieved much more favorably and also sold better than Vanquish on PC.

I wonder if people got a bit burned by the hype. Bayonetta was sort of the appetizer for a lot of people so expectations where a bit crushed when people found out Bayonetta is actually a much meatier and just more well rounded package.

I don't really agree with the complaint that the game is too short, it moves at such a breakneck speed that a longer campaign would actually hurt it.

In fact I think the game already has a bit of that problem, it needed more variety.

>>378625260
>only takes 2-3 hours to beat

and any more hours would be extremely boring with the amount of content it has

by the way, have you beat the challenges yet?

It was fun to play once and try a few of the side challenges, but its certainly no masterpiece. Its a solid 7 or so and theres nothing wrong with that. Got it for cheap on 360 a year after it came out. I feel bad, that the sony niggers hyped it up all this time like it was some misunderstood gem. I think they at least made their money back though, so good for sega.

>when you exclusively use melee except when forced not to

s p i cy

>>378630043
no it's just we have a lot shooty shooty action games

>>378629886
Theres already challenges and god hard both of which should take you a while to beat, and can take up a fuck ton of time if you actually want to get good which is what the games made for.

>>378628368
>It has a short but sweet campaign


it really isn't, it's short but the later half just felt like a slog since they start aggressively recycling bosses while regular enemy fights get more and more boring since there's only so many ways to make a corridor feel exciting, oh and there's no new weapons to change things up

>>378631608
>When you take 10hrs to clear each chapter

>>378628798
Yes so stick to rpgs and action adventure shit if you want length. The best action games have always been short, theres no need to put pressure on devs to make games longer or else you'll end up with a nightmare like Bayonetta where half of the game is annoying gimmick shit that makes repeated playthroughs a tedious slog.

It's really short but at least it's entirely devoid of padding, aside from the stealth sniping section p much every setup is relatively unique and fun.

Deffo can argue it was too expensive back then though.

>>378632071
this is not like most shooty shooty action games, everyone saying it's shit probably just play it like gears of war

Game really needs a difficulty that has the encounters of God Hard but the health/recharge/boost values of hard mode. God Hard kinda turns the game into a cover shooter and hard far too easy.

>>378628843
Gears seem to get a lot of shit, but I've genuinely enjoyed the first game. Sure, it didn't have the slide and slow-mo, but I dare to say it didn't lose to Vanquish in the other aspects.

>>378630903
Not yet. Been busy playing through the Hard difficulty. I dunno if I'll platinum this game or not. I don't feel the same desire to do that like I did with Bayo.

>It's really short but at least it's entirely devoid of padding, aside from the stealth sniping section p much every setup is relatively unique and fun.

I liked how it tried to spice things up with set piece like scenarios to keep things interesting and the relatively capable enemy design made up for it.

The absolutely pathetic number of bosses and their overuse really threw me off. By the third time I fought an Argus, I didn't give a shit.

Game needs a sequel with proper content. A ranking system does not make up for longevity in the long run if the game itself doesn't justify it.

It's another DMC4 crapout but even worse cause it's a shooter.

Does it have a new game plus mode? Will weapon upgrades get carried over to next playthrough? Yes, it's my first time with it.
Please respond. Only hits I got on google were from 2012 gamefaqs and they didn't help

lock-laser is one of the most overpowered weapons in the game -- you one-shot up to 8 enemies WITHOUT EVEN AIMING just by spraying shots.

>>378636462
it does jack shit for damage, and aiming is not hard with a mouse

>>378636462
>>378636585
It seems like the lock on laser had damage issues due to that framerate bug that has been patched as of yesterday. Try it again, the damage should be more than decent now.

There should be Elena SFM porn by now.

Because he doesn't simply punch robots, he uses all of his costume's stored kinetic energy to do so.
I thought that was quite obvious from the QTE scenes when he noticeably revs up his fists before punching.

what's the point of boost dodging vs just spamming dodge

just to look cool?

>>378640475
faster and safer

>>378640475
Positioning. Boost dodging moves you faster and keeps you safer but has you leaping a bit further.

>>378624894
I can't believe this came out after Bayonetta. Vanquish is good but Bayo feels so much more polished.

>>378633993
Care to give an example of those bugs?

Only thing that comes to my mind is reload canceling which actually makes the game better

>>378624894
Anything changes from the original game? I have both this and Bayonetta on 360, so I'm not too keen on buying them again.

i wanted to try god hard but it's even more boring, go from cover to cover even more since if you don't play it like this you die almost immediately.
the whole game should've been more like the final boss fight where you go fast and crazy and are forced to stay on the move.

I think it's more so that "CUHRAAAAYZEE" became a massive meme and action games became the most popular games on the board(or the fans just became louder). Shooters really aren't as popular on here anymore. Titanfall 2 got little discussion or play, Destiny was a thing for a short time, and things like the MCC get shit on because Xbone.
