Hellblade first impressions

>>386524306
>Die too many times and you restart game

what??

>>386524373
it's called a game over

>>386524373

Not kidding, that's an actual feature in game. There are checkpoints but you can't keep dying.

>>386524306
>>Mental health trigger warning on startup - totally not a red flag
rape victims tend to get triggered pretty hard by rape, so I don't see this as a bad thing

>>386524306
I forgot that this was even a thing bro.

>>386524306
>>Apparently having mental health = a group of females keep nagging you in ASMR
kek

>>386524373

Every time you die, you get a "brain rot". If it accumulates, it gives you permadeath and you have to start over.

Also, you die in a few hits so you must abuse dodge and parry.

Looks like they took note of the bullshit hard mode difficulty in Nier Automata

Pro's

- The Pict interprets mental illness as something mythical (this is new never seen it in a game before) and in line with the time period as the idea of "mental illness" didn't exist.

- Beautiful looking, makes other "indie" games presentation look like crap honestly

- Can toggle run so no forced walking crap

Cons

- The intro is way too long, basically the Halflife tram ride but with nothing interesting to see

- I wonder if this game really needed to be an action game at all, but it's far too early to tell

>>386524306
>/pol/ would hate this, wait for a sale.
more like crazyfags.

Forgot to mention, graphics do look very pretty, UE4 once again does not disappoint. Senua looks realistic until the weird, ugly facial animation kicks in.

Looks like 5 hours movie of walking and talking.

>>386524790

She looks very nice in stills, but for some reason it shits all over whenever she moves her mouth.

Why is it that animators can never get mouth movement well? I think the only games that did it fine was Witcher 3 and MGSV. There's also SH3

But how does it feel? What moves do you get? How are the controls?

>>386524743
>needed to be an action game at all, but it's far too early to tell
It didn't. NT wanted to make a game for story loving fucks but had to shoehorn in combat somehow because it needed to sell. Or that is their excuse for the combat being dull as fuck

>>386524743
>The Pict interprets mental illness as something mythical (this is new never seen it in a game before)
Didn't Horizon do this?

>Mental health trigger
Explain. What is this game about?

>>386524963
Yeah with one of the early side quests

>>386524970

From what I understand, a woman loaded with shrooms takes her husbands head who has killed by vikings. She sails to viking land in search of his "soul" and goes around killing vikings she thinks are demons.

Oh and when you start the game, it literally tells you it's about mental illnesses so lol

>>386524970

Apparently an interpretation of a celtic goddess who probably has mental health issues.

Some ancient pieces of her were dug up years ago and that inspired this game.

>>386524920

It's like Ryse. Combat looks visceral, but very shallow and basic.

Jut dodge, parry and counter attack.

>>386524945

Man, imagine if Life of Stange had a shoehorned combat section.

Combat is so fucking basic, it goes like this.

1. Keep spam-clicking the left mouse button to kill guys.
2. Block enemy attack at last moment then repeat step 1.

>DUDE LOOK AT THE FACE

>>386525202
>>386525408
Do you get different weapons with new movesets though?

>>386525569

The pause screen has the entire moveset.

Also this is an artsy story-driven game, you really think there'd be variety in combat moves?

Game gets a plus for using real-time cutscenes, but gets a minus for lack of interactivity in walking and puzzle areas.

An action game this is not.

But they don't? What they do best is trippy visuals, and so far they havent disappointed.

>>386524913
Kinda sad that SH3 was more exceptional technically that games of today

I know Ninja Theory made some pretty interesting games in the past.

There was Heavenly Sword and...umm...uhh...

well there's Heavenly Sword.

Yeah, too bad the team that made it probably already retired from making games.

Since when did that fat fuck cuck get a copy of the game?

>>386524913
It's because lazy studios mocap their facial. Where stuff like Witcher 3 and even HL2 / VTMB. All facial animation is manually keyed

>>386527260

Makes you wonder what the fuck were Bioware Montreal doing with Andromeda's animation.

Oh yeah, pre-orders were supposed to come with a digital comic.

Still no word of that 4 hours later.

Thats a game over. Did you start playing videogames around last year or so? No wonder people think Dark Souls is "hard"

>>386527259
Gotta move copies somehow.

>>386526391
this right here... It recommends you play with a headset, which is fine I get it, they want you to actually hear the voices in your head... thing is they are so fucking annoying.. combat is brain-dead easy. all you need to do is dodge the first attack then do thrusting Light attacks and back off

>>386527845

Yes. If you die too much, you get marked. Happen enough times, you get permadeath and have to start over.

Worse if you have bad reflexes because the game relies on dodge spamming like bamham combat and you die in a few hits

post gameplay footage plox

>>386527913

No. Gameovers return you to your last savepoint, If you die too much in this game, you have to start from the VERY BEGINNING of the game.

>>386527932
and before any one mentions
>yeah she is schizo it is suppose to put you in her shoes
I don't know if giving someone a full blown mental illness simulator is a good call from a business standpoint, its just grating.

crack when

>>386527996
So like having no continues left in Sonic the Hedgehog? That just means I have to play the game and focus on it instead of playing it while listening to a podcast

>>386524913
most studios either do raw mocap or mostly manual animation. MGSV did a balance. also because FOX engine was designed for cinematic experiences, lots of tech behind scenes built to capture actor's performances before anything else. still requires some manual input but night and day vs days of say MGS3 which was a nightmare to animate.

>>386527948

Welp. Looks like Ninja Theory's going to have to brush up on their mobile game skills.
How long was this in development anyways? I feel like this game was announced almost five or so years ago.

How the fuck was this game released with this kind of death penalty system without anyone finding out until now?

Dark Souls was forgiving because you had checkpoints and can try again despite game being too fucking hard.

Hellblade is straight up telling you "GIT GUD OR ELSE!"

>>386528180

Most likely because they didnt bother with testers.

The permadeath was only known today.

I'm expecting a lot of refunds from people who only wanted an cinematic walking simulator

>>386528180
They've been pretty tight lipped about this game since it was announced.
Other than "action game" I don't think they said much else about it. The few trailers they released hardly said much either.

>>386528287
>dark souls

STFU

>>386528331
how long is the game?

Combat needs to be harder imho, keep the permadeath mechanic. I'm not bothered by the voices as I've read that apparently if you're insane you hear voices inside your head or some shit. Interesting mechanic too, instead of UI you get sound cues in the form of a voice telling you to duck or whatever. The puzzles were barely explained and was very frustrating the first time, but once I got it its a breeze.

All in all, its too EZ for me. I'm not sure if the story would keep me interested but I hear its a short game so I plan on finishing it. Get it if you want it. Can't really say if its worth it.

>>386528302

>I'm expecting a lot of refunds from people who only wanted an cinematic walking simulator

Those people are simply filthy casuals

>>386528331

I know. It would be fine if it werent for the obnoxiously long intro.

At least in old games like super mario that had limited continues, the game starts immediately.

In-game voices actually tell you when there's an enemy behind you and when to evade a boss's attack move.

Can you even stop being a jerk?...

From the videos it reminds me so much of Heavenly Sword.

Mediocre to shitty action gameplay, but worst of all it's the acting. Their games always feel so overacted. It feels like they're trying too hard because they're using this great mocap technology and they HAVE to show you how great it is and how many expressions they can make and how dramatic the game is.

I told you the game will turn out good and then you will change your mind, you contrarians fucks. Just wait the reviews.

I dont like or understand this super-close-over-the-shoulder-and-horrible-fov style.

Ryse I guess started it, and nobody liked it or that shitty game, and now GoW is doing it, and this game is doing it. You're too close to your character. Just back the camera up, what the fuck.

I heard Jimbo calling the game really unapologetically spooky. Is this true?

>>386528937

The celtic/viking imagery is great, but that's all there is.

>>386528892

>>386527454
Over reliance on raw mocap data no doubt.
A common beginner's mistake is the assumption that mocap data can just be injected into a model and produce 1:1 results. That shit still needs to be fixed and tinkered with. Doubly so when it's facial capture.
Either they were facing time constraints or, more likely (based off the entire disaster that was Andromeda), the whole project was handled by amateurs.

>>386528980

What determines if it "suits" the game? Did it "suit" Ryse? Why wont it "suit" God of War, since they are changing the gameplay?

Its a dumb style. I love third person action adventure games, but that camera is way the fuck too close. Its like playing an FPS and the viewmodel takes up half the screen. That doesnt suit any game, its annoying as shit.

>>386529125

Well it was an EA game, so no matter what happened in production it was going to be a mess anyway.

>>386524306

So much intent that it guts whatever gameplay there is by wiping your save if you die to much.

No. They kept releasing dev diaries. Even just before release and when the game was gold they tried to spread the news regarding the game.
Literally nobody cared.

>>386530201
still, sjw's usually protect their brethren until death even when they know they are wrong

I fucking love the way this game looks. Hearing more about how it's addressing the mental health issue as it relates to the legend of the goddess is such a cool concept with how fucking accurate this game feels. Something that captures that dreadful feeling of actually being the protagonist in a myth, kind of a SotC ambience. Sorry, please continue your bashing thread, I'm just really excited to play this finally.

do you really think that a female celtic warriro is realistic and not driven by political agendas
and before you say boudicca. she was a queen that never fought on the battlefield and only was the symbolic leader of the revolution against rome. she killed herself and her daughters when her army lost

lost all interest when the devs presented bloody tunnel vision as some novel new way to indicate player health

Well that makes much more sense. Both the lack of marketing and the content. Maybe it'll go free on PS+ sometime down the line. $30 generally equates to £30/£25 around here, not sure it's worth that.

From the sounds of it, people are praising the story side while saying the gameplay is serviceable, though nothing special. Not sure if I want want that

How many deaths trigger the save delete and do we know at this point how long the game is?

>Permadeath
I'm going to do some testing, but I can assure you, that virtually no one will experience the permadeath feature. I almost gaurentee it.

Besides, the game is so fucking easy and exploitable that it's nearly impossible to lose combat sections. THe only times I've died is when I ran through some fire in the first set of trials because I went the wrong way.

It's a cheeky cunt thing to do so people think they're hardcore about beating it.

>>386529762
Reminds me of the Steel Battalion "You lose your save if you don't eject" feature, which was neat considering the controller it had.

Nothing more tense than going down and having to flip up the little plastic lid covering the eject button before you die.

Hellraid.

I thought it was released but I confused it with Inner Chains

Its actually sickening to me that a guy like tameem has his own studio. I really cant see this guy enjoying video games. He probably tried to make it in the indie film crowd but got laughed out so he came here to roost. I mean listen to him talk, he has such an inflated sense of importance about what he does. He genuinely thinks he's elevating games to the next level. I genuinely think he doesn't understand that most games (at least back in the day) are fun because of the skill/challenge they offer. He talks like the only thing games have eber tried to do was tell stories and that only now that he's on the scene is it "truly" possible.

Do you actually have to go through the unskippable intro when you get a game over?

Does the release of this game mean that the new God of War will be a Hellblade clone since Hellblade was both announced and release earlier?

The camera looks way too close to the character in the gameplay videos I've seen. Is there a way to zoom out?

Nope. Not all of them. The medium evolved and different people like different things. I couldn't care less about beating dark souls after 1000 hours of grinding.

To be fair, game having permadeath is a good thing.

All societies hold women in high regard (with the exception of islam and modern western degeneracy). They are worshiped by all cultures that survive in one way or another. But not just any kind of woman, it's more specifically the virgin kind or motherly kind of woman. The reasons for this should be obvious to you.

It's really not that bad you stupid white knight. 99% of cases it happens with someone the girl knows and it's not even violent or anything, half if those times she's drunk, and really akin to rough sex.

I can't even count the number of times girls have asked me for rape play. Most girls if not all have a massive rape fetish, and love being sexually dominated.

Only times legit PTSD happens to rape victims is when it's a violent rape, usually from a stranger, and they're also getting beaten up as a result.

If you equate the sort of rape akin to what you saw in 13 Reasons Why, as especially traumatic, then you need to get your head checked, cause it's legit not. Girls just love having a victim complex.

Rape is only bad if the dude doing the raping is ugly. That's how females think.
