So what's the point of this game? Just to have a "pretty"

>>389145003
Fuck off, it's your kind that make this place insufferable.

>>389145079
What? Is the game not going to be good or something? Didn't the creators quit their jobs or something to make it? Seems like they could have just drawn a regular cartoon and save some time and money.

Reminder that I'm going to pirate this game and help others pirate the game too.

>>389145003
Yeah, the point is just to make a game that looks like an old american cartoon. The particle effects look out-of-place but everything else is very consistent. It's supposed to be fun to play to, but I probably won't get it, so idk.

>>389146270
I mean, why even bother? Just watch it on youtube. Or just watch better cartoons on youtube.

The animation and artstyle is gorgeous but the gameplay looks really bland. It looks like a lot of style over substance to me.

>>389146634
Because the shill devs keep spamming /v/ with "please buy our game we did so MUCH!"/

>>389145212
you make multiple threads either going YOU HATE THIS FOR NO REASON ADMIT IT SONY or THIS IS THE BEST GAME NOW COMING OUT ACCEPT IT in an attempt to make it look like shilling

>>389146630
>The particle effects
There are no effects, all the animations are hand drawn.

>>389146794
This. I don't know why they bothered making it a video game. They incurred insane costs to do something they could have accomplished by just drawing a cartoon.

Alien Soldier is the best game on the Mega Drive and it was only about half finished. Too bad there will never be a remake with all the cut content.

>I think it's important to show that the developers are going to leave a lot of people who have recently had a hemisphere of their brain removed behind

>>389147614
I've watched the comments on this thread just to see how mean they would be. I think it's useful to show my gameplay experience. I did not intentionally play poorly to "troll" anyone. But it serves as an interesting social experiment. I walk into a game cold, and this is the play that results. The video shows it's a notch more difficult than your typical Mario game. In fact, if you are expecting Mario, as the story says, then you are thrown off. And it shows that the developers are going to leave a lot of people who are worse than me behind. Maybe they're fine with that. Maybe they want to target gamers with a love for difficult games. That's fine. But I think they should signal that. How many games actually come with a tutorial these days? They're not popular. But if it's necessary, that is a signal this is going to require some skill. As for other comments on this thread, I wonder why they are hostile to someone who is viewing the game as a beginner? Are we that intolerant of people who are not "gamers"? Should I have played the scene over and over again until I was good at it, and then turned the recording on, like so many of those perfect video walkthroughs you see? I believe that games can be made accessible and inviting to people who are not hardcore fans, and these people can be accommodated inside the same game that is appealing to hardcore fans, through difficulty levels. So when people tell me that I shouldn't be playing this game because, on my first play, I was pretty lousy -- that's an attitude that argues that games should be shut off in their own little corner, only played publicly by the masters and the experts. I disagree with that view entirely, and I believe it leads to elitist attitudes that allow gamers to look down on other people, and that only leads to a more fragmented world of haters.

>>389145003
it doesnt seem bad for a $20 game, there hasnt really been any big run and gun games for a while now

>couch co op

I'm excited

>>389151871
It's not even a $20 game. It's going for $12 on GOG.

>>389151827
There are limited time and resources, and they have to be allocated in a certain way. They have clearly been dumping the majority of those limited time and resources into the art, so they couldn't spend the same amount of time and resources on the actual gameplay. I'm sure the game will be completely mediocre and playable, I have no doubt about that. But I've played plenty of mediocre games. Why play another? What about the GAME (not the visuals) makes Cuphead stand out?

No problem. I was also hesitant to get it until I saw it was on GOG, at an even lower price than on Steam. It's like the devs really want people to buy it from there and not from Steam.
