When are we ever going to get anything like God Hand ever again?
Some more webms from a /v/ style
Probably not. It was one-of-a-kind.
3/10
>>388889845
Yeah it was a gem. With Platinum stretching their boundaries with games like Nier Automata and I wonder if they'd be willing to revisit the unconventional control scheme.

and personal favorite
>>388889656
I remember something being controversial about this game?
>>388890945
yeah faggot game journalists who don't even finish games they review
>>388890274
Considering how The Wonderful 101 was recieved I doubt they'll try any more unconventional action games for a while.
Which is a shame, since it's my favorite Platinum game.
>>388891374
Shame W101 didn't do to hot either. I really liked the execution after being wary of the concept for a while, but I had to actually sit down to play it--and play it for a couple hours before it kicked in. I think that's the biggest issue with the game for a lot of people.

>tank controls
No thanks. Godhand was a great idea, but it's held back by fundamental design choices.
>>388891183
Soooo what was controversial about this game?
>>388892205
That's it. Receiving low scores from shitty game journalists.

>tank controls
You couldn't be more wrong.
>>388892256
Oh really? I thought some story thing. Game looks pretty cool to me.
>>388892307
Just because you like tank controls doesn't mean that they're not tank controls.
It's the same thing in Resident Evil, and DmC1.
>>388892442
They're not tank controls though.
>>388889656
When you pull your finger out and make it
>>388892442
DMC1 tank controls.
What on Earth no it didn't. And don't put a lower case m in DMC, that implies the reboot.
>>388892442
holy fuck you're so stupid
>>388892568
Sorry, was probably thinking about Onimusha. Might've been wrong about DMC.
>>388892191
When I first picked up God Hand I thought it was pretty awful.
But it's one of those things that doesn't take too long to get used to, and once you realize the brevity of actions Clover is giving you you understand that the control scheme is incredibly intuitive and just unique.

>waaaaah, how dare you insult my favorite game
Godhand isn't that great. Deal with it.
>>388892739
Thanks for the thoughtful comment. Maybe I should revisit.
>>388892828
>Godhand isn't that great. Deal with it.
Sounds like you're just shit at it.

totally not viable in the game
all you do is spam punch combo and guard break. any semblance of "depth" is jsut an illusion
>>388893092
>The standard setting of God Hand defines difficulty based on how well you're doing
>Even the simplest of attacks and combos is completely reliant on the player's choices, actions, and finesse
If you want to complain about the controls, at least do it right and talk about the shitty camera.Also learn what tank controls are you utter casual retard
>>388893092
git gud
>>388893756
What do you mean 'not viable'? On level 3 and above enemies will actually pop out of combos angry if it's not a legitimate string.
But the difficulty comes in the enemy aggression and that combo breaking not the execution. You can string together moves pretty easily, God Hand combo videos are just about style and fun.
what do y'all think made the game so good despite it's flaws?
>>388894673

>Tank controls refer to a characters movement when they are similiar to that of a tank. IE you have to turn before you can move forward or backwards. Tanks have no wheels to turn so they have to lock-up or reverse one of the treads to turn.
>Literally steer and drive Gene like a tank
>not tank controls
I don't know how this can be any clearer. Yet no one has proven that it's NOT tank controls.
>>388893756
I bet you point out fighting game combo videos that aren't practical.
>>388893756
And all you do is shitpost and waste my air, your point?
Even better. When are we going to get another pic related? No game has ever made fast third person combat as good as this game. Gameplay looks straight out of a cutscene or movie.
>>388895289
I love Gaiden Black and God Hand but these two rarely get along outside of crazy beatemup fanatic threads.
>>388893756
it's true a lot of those are on enemies that are eating their last hit. You can sandbag any enemy infinitely for free heat when you knock them out. that one on drunken master is 100% legit, though.
literally anything is viable while an enemy is dizzy and you can easily find combos that get you extra damage instead of going straight into the QTE.
If you practice and experiment a lot there's all sorts of things you can do.

you can turn while you move, though.
