Are any of you losers actually interested in this crap? It genuinely

Your retarded use of buzzwords makes me want to buy it out of spite. It doesn't look like a bad game at all.

>>389252742
How about we WAIT UNTIL THE GAME COMES OUT before judging it based on gameplay from like three levels? If you pre-order it, you're dumb. If you say it's shit before it comes out, you're dumber.

>>389252742

Only issue I have is how shitty the actual weapon looks. It looks worse then a pea shooter, maybe it plays better then it looks, but I have never seen a run and gun game with a "gun" that looks that weak.

>>389252983
Then you should play contra 4

I can see how the art style and animation alone could be a selling point to someone. I can also see how the relatively simple core mechanics could be appealing to some people.

It does absolutely nothing for me though. I was never fond of these very early western cartoons (which I really think are the ENTIRE point of the existence of this game) to begin with, and I was never fond of this particular gameplay either.
So... no, I'm not interested in it in the slightest. I do wish the best on the team though, because they very clearly put a lot of hard work into it.

>>389253253
>I can see how the art style and animation alone could be a selling point to someone.
This. the artstyle/theme is the best thing about the game. Other than that, it's a generic platformer.

How has this game been in development for so long too? Wasn't this shown like 5 years ago or something?

I lost interest when microsoft decided to shoehorn in some shitty platforming sections to drag out the length of the game so they could save their holiday "lineup".

good music, good visuals, tight controls, difficulty is just right, tons of colorful characters

/v/ will literally hate on anything

>>389253335
It was solely a boss rush game at first but MS made them add actual stages and shit

>>389253335
>How has this game been in development for so long too?
It takes an unholy amount of time to draw all that shit, also the programmers may be hacks.

And don't forget they listened to retards on the internet whining about the lack of platforming levels, so they had to make them.

>>389253335
Well, because outside of doing good hand-crafted animation alone is pretty hard, it's because the only thing that the developers themselves had really though out was the damn art style. Which means that the game went through several MAJOR architecture overhauls in the process. Basically what they showed back then and what we should be getting sometime soon are two VERY different games. And plus I think there is a big fucking problem with combining good hand-crafted animation and making a high-precision input games too, and I think the developers under-estimated that and paid for it dearly.

But really - yeah, lack of actual strong idea of what the game is supposed to be like outside of the art direction is most to blame here.

>>389252742
Im going to buy it and play it and probably like it cuz Im not faggot hipster trash.

>no seriously guys how do I jump over this pillar

>>389253573
>lack of actual strong idea of what the game is supposed to be like outside of the art direction
how fucking blind or stupid are you?

it's contra, but focused on boss fights. at the very start it was contra, but ONLY boss fights. Now it has stages. it's not a hard concept to grasp, and you must be willfully ignorant to pretend you still "don't know what the game is supposed to be like"

>>389253105
>TFW I still pronounce it as sage knowing full well that it's sage.

>>389252742

Watching the game in motion with everything animated at 60FPS looks bad.

If the devs really cared and had attention to detail, they could have the game running at 60FPS but they should have animated everything at a lower frame rate.

>how fucking blind or stupid are you?
You really should not be opening your posts with these kinds of claims when you then proceed to be absolutely and provably wrong, kid. It will get you called a child.

The fact that it was designed around pure boss rushes makes it nothing like Contra. It was - if anything - more similar to something like Furi. Ten or so boss battles with virtually no down-time between. No level traversal, no generic grunts, no platforming outside of what the individual bosses threw at you.

And all of that DID get changed. They added level traversal, they added platforming, basic enemies etc... Which is a MAJOR fucking change from the original vision, suggesting that the original vision wasn't very strong if the developers were willing to alter it so drastically. And that is what I meant: their vision wasn't particularly strong if they could pretty quickly start saying "well maybe we could and should end up doing something very different.

>>389254365
So basically, you're upset because they expanded the scope of the game and added more content?

I like it. Artstyle looks really cool. I don't understand the hate for this game. I feel like all the hype is being generated by the people who for some reason really want it to fail. It's just a fucking game.

>>389254627

Maybe I need to clarify.
Watch this in 60FPS and tell me that the actual MOTION of the game doesn't look horribly wrong mixed with the choppier animations

Guys how do I do this part?

>>389254842
It looks good and people are excited for it so naturally /v/ needs to take the opposite position.

>>389254740
I'm not upset because I never found the very idea appealing on any level. I honestly never really cared. And I don't know - or actually care - if the changes they made were benefiting the game nor not. A) it's hard to say because it's not out yet, B) it's also hard to say because we won't get to play the original "vision" to begin with, so most of our comparisons are going to be with an imaginary "could have been" thing, and C) I don't like the art style or either the original vision or the new take to begin with with, so I won't be bothering to play it anyway.

I'm just answering a fucking QUESTION you retard, one where somebody wanted to know why it was in development for so fucking long. And this is an answer that seems to be most logical and appropriate considering what we can find out about it.

Now go be insecure somewhere else you projecting pile of shit.

>>389254935
Looks fine to me. And I imagine that where you're actually playing it it would look too choppy if they lowered it.

>>389255053
>it's also hard to say because we won't get to play the original "vision" to begin with
Just only fight the bosses.

>>389254842
There is quite a lot of obvious potential issues with it, and the development has been very troubled, so actually people being skeptical is I think fairly natural. Now add the fact that a lot of people people here are also just sad jaded cunts who are angry because it looks interesting and gets a lot of attention, and you'll obviously have an explosion of anger waiting to go off.

Game that does look like it may have some legitimate issues, AND people desperate to shit on things from principle - that is a guaranteed shitstorm around here.

Wait so the original vision of this game was just a boss rush?

>>389253335
But it's not a platformer

>>389255382
Yes, that is what they first pitched back in 2013 or so when it was first unveiled.

>>389252742
It looks boring. Wish they took some cues from contra rebirth or gunstar heroes

>>389252983
pew pew

>>389255382
Yes. That's why it's taken so long to come out, they never originally planned to include levels but the fan response was pretty big so they expanded the scope of the game.

>>389252742
No, but not for the reasons you listed. It's basic ass metal slug gameplay but without the different settings(desert, factory, underwater etc) and good sound effects metal slug has.

>>389255492
Are you a legitimate shitposter? Can you NOT READ?

I don't hate the game. Fuck me, here are my thoughts on the game: >>389253253
What part of "I not saying that what happened was necessarily for the worse" did not get through your skull?

What part of "I'm not saying it's bad or good, I'm just providing correct fucking explanation of why it took so bloody long to release" is lost on on you?

>>389255382
According to the devs they originally wanted to have stages, but scaled the game back to be realistic, then scaled it back up when they remortgaged their house and started working on it full time.

I'm not planning on buying this game because I don't really like platformers, but I sometimes keep up with it because I do like the art style and hope it does at least moderately well because of that.

The only interesting thing about it is the art, once you played it once you've seen everything the game has to offer. It has zero replayability.
As a matter of fact, it starts to feel quite obnoxious if you end up having to repeat a section a few times, especially the rag time music.
This game is destined to fade into obscurity along with other "quirky" one-trick-pony shit like Fez.

Why do people hate on this game so much? I keep hearing about "Bland gameplay" or whatever but it doesn't look bad, you have an airdash mechanic and a parry mechanic which can make the game a lot more interesting if you're skilled enough to use them properly. What they really need to do is throw in some Metal Slug/Contra weapon pick ups and the game would look great. Right now it reminds me a lot of Gunstar heroes with 90% of the game being bosses. I'm just gonna guess people are hating on it because the default shot types look really lackluster.

So... Contra and Metal Slug aren't a subgenre of platformers and are entirely new genres? Pretty sure that a platformer with more shooting is still just a platformer.

That's absolutely a fair point, but I don't see why video games time and again have special rules concerning quality. I buy art prints for way more money solely because they look good. Aeon Flux's entire thing was style over substance and it's still pretty highly regarded because of it. Hell, once or twice I've even bought a novel because of the cover art. I do love Mike Mignola.

It looks like Gunstar Heroes but without any of the features that made it so satisfying to play. The art style is beautiful, but everything on screen is just too static.

Not only is that a claim you are pulling out of your ass, but it's not even relevant even if it were true. Just because an older game and a newer game share mechanics doesn't mean the newer one has less replayability. Good game mechanics don't directly give you a reason to replay the game anyways, they just make the game more fun.

>>389259976

>And that somehow means you haven't seen everything they have to offer after beating them once?
Mario and Megaman had more going for them than their art style. Cuphead does not.

It's a technical term used in the games industry. Deal with it.

>>389260004
Yeah, why isn't this another Splatoon or PUBG thread? fucking Sonyshills!

The only thing Cuphead has going for it is the art. I know this term is overused, but once you have played the game once, you have LITERALLY seen everything it has to offer. You have SEEN all the unique art. Once you have literally seen everything in the game, you have experienced every fresh idea that went into it.

I'm going to say this one more time to make sure it gets into your retard brain. The only interesting thing about Cuphead is the art, to the point where it almost feels like the mechanics, the actual meat of the game, were an afterthought.

That STILL doesn't mean that you haven't seen everything in Mario and Megaman after beating them once.

Oh, you've played it? Surely you didn't just watch the first level on youtube and then comment on the entire game's replayability.

It's not about the replayability at all though, is it. What you're actually trying to say is "it doesn't look fun" but because you can't substantiate that argument you're just attacking something completely unrelated and then trying to act like the dumb shit you're saying holds any water. Wow, the game ends after beating it? What a fucking shocker, never seen that kind of thing before.

watch, because of shit like this and howe most reviewers are, cuphead is going to be called "the darksouls of 2d platformers!"

That's Super Meat Boy.

>>389258318
He reviewed Mass Effect like 10 years ago and complained he couldn't finish it, called it Mass Defect. Turned out he didn't distribute any skill points since the beginning of the game and couldn't progress because of that.

Really activates the almonds about the state of this shit "industry".

>>389260795
Unless if you somehow have a full copy of the game, your post is literally "I don't like the game so I'm going to make up stuff to make it sound like I have a legit argument to why I don't like it and so shouldn't other people"
Why not just say you don't like the game rather than saying things like "once you have played the game once, you have LITERALLY seen everything it has to offer. " like you've played through the whole thing so you can judge it?

>>389261206
the guy from that webm has already said the difficulty is "between mario and dark souls"

whatever that means

>>389260827

>That STILL doesn't mean that you haven't seen everything in Mario and Megaman after beating them once.

Which was your argument, not mine.

>And "game feel" is a term used by morons who lack the critical thinking skills to describe exactly what it is they like about a game and why they like it.
>Either that or it's a copout term which loosely refers to the controls.

No, it is a technical term that refers to the controls and mechanics of a game, specifically the user input and in game response, it is particularly applicable in 2D platformers.
If it triggers your autism is doesn't change the fact that it is actually used in the game development industry by game developers.

There are books that have been published that discuss and contain instructions on how to replicate the game feel of a mario game.

true but meat boy isnt relevant enough for airhead reviewers to make that comparison

>>389252742
Yeah I'm definitely gonna pirate cuphead and give it a go. I don't see it as a soulslike or a retro thing, and I don't see it as ripping off Disney specifically
But even if it was, Iwouldn't care. I'm happy to try out a new run n gun. If it sucks, no big deal. I'm happy it's getting released though, for a long time I thought it was dead.

I thought this game was a boss rush?

you know why I'm pissed??? none of that shit you just posted, but because it's only for xbox niggers and pc (I'd buy it for pc, but I like console co-op better)
BRING CUPHEAD TO PS4. FUCK.

>>389252742
I like the aesthetics of the game, that old timey Disney look I think is neat. Would buy if I had an xbone

So, what's with the cup?

>>389261452

I've seen enough game play footage to be able to make a judgement. It's a Metal Slug clone with a quirky art style. Once you seen all the enemies and all the levels, you have literally seen everything interesting the game has to offer.
In terms of game play it does nothing new.
It's mediocre.
I don't buy games based purely on their art style, and anyone who does is a pleb.

>>389261747
That's why the game's been delayed. MS told the devs they had to make levels.

>>389261867

It means hes a shit reviewer, as if the footage didn't tell you that already.

>>389255965
If this was a minute and a half of him TRYING to get the jump+dash motion I'd be a bit more sympathetic, because then at least it's just execution problems. Maybe he's used to RPGs or FPS games, or the controller has a funny button layout or whatever. But this is him, mentally, unable to figure out what to do, despite having CLEARLY WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS. Like, how the fuck? My grandma could figure this shit out.

>>389261907
MS doesn't tell them what to do, they're not publishing.

>>389261949
yeah, but why? Kinda weird choice for a head. Is there any reason behind it or they just trying to be original pieces of shit?

>>389262024
All my grandparents are dead and none of them could work out any vidya besides pong and missile command and pacman, you totally like triggered me or something man.

>>389262104

They're just trying to be original pieces of shit.
And failing spectacularly.

Is there a button you can hold so you can stay in one place and shoot diagonally? Or do you have to constantly walk forward if you want to do that?

>>389262281
It's mapped to R1 by default, yes.

>>389262281
Yes.

>>389261513
It's not a real term you game grumps watchin fag lord

Cool thanks. None of the gameplay videos I've seen showed people doing that but I just assumed they were shitters.

Yes it is, and game grumps is shit. Faggot.

>>389262378
I used to deny "game feel" for that reason, but I agree with
>>389259442 everything he listed is game feel related.

Cuphead looks like a fun Contra-style game. I don't expect it to be long or have much depth but I really enjoy those types of games and the artstyle is great.

>>389258329
don't worry, you won't get it on your shitty system anyway.

I tried the game at a con in Canada a lil bit ago, it's pretty fun desu

Devs are also nice dudes so I'm hoping for the best

>>389260795
> but once you have played the game once, you have LITERALLY seen everything it has to offer.
Normal mode has an extra phase for every boss over easy mode, so who's to say hard mode won't have even more phases and therefore more art to view?

>>389252742
you're the loser my friend
