Cuphead

What's up with sudden million cuphead threads? Anyway the game looks amazing when it comes to the presentation, but the gameplay looks pretty generic.

This is how Cuphead gameplay is like?
Wow looks like generic garbage. Thank god I didn't fall for the shilling.

>lets make all these cool looking and superbly animated enemies
>what about gameplay?
>I run out of ideas
>DUDE LET JUST MAKE THE WHOLE GAME ABOUT SHOOTING AND DODGING PROJECTILES INSTEAD OF MAKING THE PLAYER ACTUALLY ENGAGE THE ENEMY LMAO

>>389031719
no, that would be persona 5

>>389031846
because it's been hyped forever with no release date set. But now a lot more info has come out and it's revealed to be shit

>>389031719
Still think it should have been boss rush only.

why is the youtube comment section the absolute worst of all places, it brings the most retarded, underage and easily triggered people to a single playground
>someone comments that they'd love a Switch port
>someone replies "switch would be too underpowered to run it"
holy fuck the amount of ass devastation that single reply managed to create

>>389033348
It seems to trigger people here too, except at least threads die in a few hours instead of baiting retards months down the line.

The regular enemies look really annoying

>>389032480
You just described a shmup. Shmups are not inheritedly bad, but this one looks too easy to be any good.

Looks like the average platformer from the 80s/90s.

looks dope but I still think ghosts 'n goblins is a fun game so what do I know

It's literally a megaman skin

>>389031719
Can't blame them for the sidescroller parts looking boring as shit, they wanted a boss only game but retards had to complain.

Anyway, I'll never be pissed off enough for the cup dudes not shooting from their straws.

>>389031846
Shills.

Aka

28 "marketer" 25year olds who attempt to build hype by making various threads and posts.

Looks fucking gorgeous, i would buy it just for the artistic direction.

>>389031719
Please tell me there isn't hentai of this game.

There isn't right?

>>389031719
I don't like how it has so much focus on animation but then it feels like your bullets aren't doing anything to the bosses.
Even fucking Touhou makes so the same boss has different attack phases and resting time so it feels you bullets are actually damaging the diaper hat wearing girl.
Meanwhile here you shoot at the carrot for hours and it doesn't do anything different till the very end where it dies.

Also that loading hourglass, why doesn't it spin instead of teleporting the sand?

>they cancelled scaledbound for this shit

Presentation is incredible but it just doesn't look that fun to play. No cool weapons, just basic platforming. Bosses look dope but beyond that I'm not sure.

>>389031719

so this game is metal slug with the 1930's Disney art style then ?

>>389031719
The gameplay in the platforming levels looks flash game tier
The presentation and the bosses look great though

this game should not be running at 60 fps. it completely counters the animation style of the characters. it's distractingly bad.

this

>>389032249
If this game was self published I would've loved to see the devs having the balls to do this. If you're gonna use a 30s artstyle, you gotta go all the way with it.

>>389033914
actually they wanted sidescrolling from the beginning but they didn't think they had enough time to put them in initially.

>>389031719
Literally one of the worst meme games I've seen in a while. Hopefully it tanks and retards who made it kill themselves.

>>389033914
>Anyway, I'll never be pissed off enough for the cup dudes not shooting from their straws.
Probably too hard to animate. Western devs are lazy.

Looks like a 7/10 game desu
Art is great, the scrolling in stages doesnt fit the artstyle tho,
Gameplay looks super boring
Music is amazing tho

>character stand still and points finger to attack
looks really dumb

I thought this game was just a boss rush thing. Did I miss some change or am I just being retarded?

>>389034445
Scalebound looked like shit too. Fuck off platinum faggot.

>>389041108
There a few stages mixed in with the bosses now. They seem pretty short.

>>389041108
people wanted more then just a boss rush , thats why it got delayed for a fuck ton of time.

also this game looks like shit. im not talking about the artstyle but it all looks 144p and so blurry.... nothing has any sharpness to it and it looks as if its played on a TV from the 70's

>>389041108
It's going to be 75% bosses 25% sidescrolling levels.

>>389031719
What a shame. The animation work looks fucking gorgeous but the gameplay is just looks so dull. The Clip Joint Calamity fight has both players just standing still and holding in shoot for ages.

lol at the sonygras furiously doing damage control ITT.

Being racist doesn't mean you have balls. It means you're an idiot.

Wrong. Cuphead was designed after the surreal rubberhose cartoons of the 1930s. HD didn't exist back then and neither did outsourcing.

So when this game comes out and inevitably flops like Tacoma, what indie game is MS going to put in their E3 conference for the next three years?

>>389033724
>too easy
It's not bullet hell, but it's not easy

>old cartoons were racist therefore this is a courageous aesthetic to imitate

Won't go into the second portion of the sentences, but were they really racist? They all seem pretty tame to me. Any examples?

I hope you all realize that Sony hiring shills to demote an upcoming, highly anticipated indie game that isn't on their platform, which has been recently overly promoting their indie scene, is entirely possible and likely is what is happening right now. This isn't a joke, this is probably what's actually causing the sudden wave of hate towards this game.

Just look at hollow knight, the gameplay looks and IS generic, I think this game is going to be fun

>>389031719
Aren't these tutorial levels? Chill out already.

>>389031719
The game is exactly what I wanted it to be.
Definitely gonna pick it up whenever it gets a physical release.

>>389031719
It's an excellent example of hipster trash pretending to "OMG LUUUUUUV XD" vintage crap.

>>389045597

Metal Slug arguably has better animation, too.

I feel like 20XX is the exact opposite.

It's got shitty flash-tier animation but the gameplay mechanics are a really good copy of MMX/Z. I really enjoyed it though the roguelite elements sometimes make the game easy.

>>389031719
filmgrain filter....absolutely disgusting.

In reality it looks fucking dope

>>389049236
Bosses look pretty meh, theyre banking really hard on the style.

So... Contra?

>>389049354
those looked like pretty basic beginner bosses..also the platforming looked good to,lots of different enemies coming from all sorts of angles....whats not to like?

>>389031846
OP hates it and keeps making threads to get other people to hate it.
Or he's doing a exetremely bad job of trying to get other people to discuss it with him bu acting like a major faggot.

>>389049670
>whats not to like?
The fact that they have an easy mode and many "starter" bosses look too formulaic.

I would never play something that looks this pretentious.

No, the literal definition of "style over substance" is a type of argumentative fallacy in which the speaker attempts to obfuscate their argument's lack of substance with excessively florid and verbose language. It isn't an artistic criticism, you fucking brainlet. In the realm of art, style IS substance.

They should have piled over the top violence blood and gore with this type of animation that would have been amazing.

It looks good, but the gameplay isn't my thing. Shame, really, because I'd play a proper platformer in that artstyle, but I guess this is the closest I'll ever get.

I feel like this game needs to fail to help keep the industry honest. If this team had an actual real team about 15% of the way through they would have sat there and said yea this looks great but gameplay wise we haven't figured it out yet back to the drawing board. But like true millenial hipsters they think everything they do is good they shit this out and millenial run gaming sites will tell you you have to buy this because it looks like old Mickey Mouse!

>>389037002
thats because the subhumans from the comment section post here daily

>>389041108
originally was boss only, people complained they wanted run n' gun sections so they made those, but they were really bare bones at the time of reveal and in general it pushed the game's release back

>>389050374
>heard you were talking shit

Someone post the youtube video with people sucking at the game and they rage in the comment section

>>389031719
I don't get the hate. This looks great to me and it's one of the only games I wish I had an XBone for.

>>389050695
A game with a shitload of boss battles can work if it's paced the right way. Look at Alien Soldier or Contra Hard Corps.

Heh.
Seriously though, this is such a fucking good game, I'm fairly surprised people never talk about it, or the previous versions, on nostalgia threads.

>>389044801
didn't they explain that in addition to the casual and normal difficulty, after beating the game there's another new game+ difficulty?

> announced years ago as Microsoft exclusive
> xbots say it looks cool, gotyay usual console kiddie drivel
> years later still not out
> coming to pc now, not even the same game
> no one cares
I honestly thought this piece of crap came out like a year or two ago and flew under the radar.
Just goes to show how desperate Microsoft was to show something, anything at e3 that year.
And now the xbone is almost as irrelevant as this game is to boot.

20XX actually surprises me with how fluid the movement is. You can hold the dash button and jump for dash jumps all the time instead of having to tap one then the other.

That game looks very cheap. Just judging from the jumping and physics. It does not feel like any Mega Man game.

The platforming looks as unfun as Contra.
