Looks pretty bad.

You bitch

[WrikaWrek]

y2kev annihilated...

[Phoenix Dark]

Looks HORRIBLE

wtf why are people creaming over this, GAF especially?

[Robo]

This trailer sucks.  Yes, we get it, Jack Black does the voice.  Now lets see something else.

[Himu]

smh at the detractors

[y2kev]

of course it sucks. I don't know why I'm destroyed. This looks like garbage. I have no idea how the game plays, but I know it has an unfunny jack black and runs on the wow engine.

[WrikaWrek]

y2kev committing self destruction...

[y2kev]

i love my fans

Yeah, but Tim Schafer writing adds 10 points to every game score.
If you read the Double Fine news regularly:  http://www.doublefine.com/news.php
and you don't enjoy TS's writing, well then you clearly are lacking soul.

Brutal Legend will play so-so but be awesome just like how Psychonauts played so-so but was awesome.

[y2kev]

I enjoy Schafer's writing, I'm only judging the trailer. Which wasn't funny. Psychonauts was really a messy game, so I'm worried about this.

[Himu]

Psychonauts level designs from level 4 and above is awesome.

The Milkman Conspiracy > *

Velvet level > *

That is, if you don't consider Psychonauts a platformer and more of an action adventure.

[Tieno]

smd @ y2kev for playing Tim Schafer games for the graphics and thinking this Tim Schafer game is made by Jack Black! (wouldn't be bad though) Go nut with MikeB on some Cell statistics.

you can't claim Psychonauts isn't a platformer when they put in a level like the Meat Circus (which isn't as bad as most people say)

I think it has platformer elements. A job amount of the game isn't even platforming, it's solving puzzles. The Meat Circus is probably the most platformer heavy level. People can hate on the gameplay in Psychonauts all they want. I thought the mix of old style western adventure game puzzles and other stuff made it fun as hell. Shame the first three stages are mostly tutorial stages because the rest of the levels are total stand outs.

And yes, Meat Circus was easy.

I don't play them for the graphics! I mean I've only really played two, and one was an adventure game (and the other was sort of a jank platformer).

we'll see how funny jack black can be even with schafer writing for him

[Himu]

What's wrong with Jack Black? He's a good voice actor.

[T234]

Psychonauts beats the shit out of those other Majesco games (Advent Rising).

[TVC15]

Wow, that's one ugly looking game.  I liked Psychonauts, but I still think it's more likely that Tim got lucky on that one than it is likely that there was talent involved.

[cool breeze]

why is everyone so harsh towards the graphics? it's a Wii game

[Himu]

huh?

[Great Rumbler]

Trailer wasn't really that great. Too much focus on big name actor and not enough focus on level design and gameplay.

I believe in Tim Schafer, though.

[Grecco]

I dont see why we are arguing about this game.

Nobody will buy it even though the internet will continue to felate Tim Schafer.


Having said that, ill probably still buy it.

[demi]

I think it looks decent. But it's a Tim Schafer game, I refuse to support it.

[Great Rumbler]

I thought the internet worshiped Tim, yet I see some hating going around. What's the deal?

This is Evilbore, dude.

[Howard Alan Treesong]

Demi is just mad Psychonauts ended up outselling that one game.  Can't even remember the name.

I remember that the author's fiction was thinly disguised Mormon doctrines and belief. Maybe it was the Twilight game?

[cool breeze]

I think it looked great. God of War meets Kameo meets Rock Band meets Heavy Metal.

saying it like that makes it sound awful

seriously

how does Kameo meets anything become a positive?

[cool breeze]

Kameo was a shitty game all in all, looked terrible too.  It's probably the worst example of bad Rare style yet.

[y2kev]

IT HAS CONTROLS ON THE TRIGGUHS

You're lying. Even if you only mean the first part, you're lying, but you're a liar, liar, pants-on-fire if you are also including the part with the rising water, jumps through fiery hoops, and the fucking glitched camera on the beginnings of the platform/ladder sequence during it.

I'm not! I don't even remember what these are. The one wtf part of Meat Circus for me was this rail that was RIDICULOUSLY high and it took me like 2 minutes to climb it.

Then you've blocked out the trauma.

Play the thing again; the spike in difficulty level is pretty sharp already at Meat Circus, but the part where the water is rising is fuck-all horrible, "only QA staffers on Red Bull can finish it" difficult, but made even worse by a camera bug which will perform a dry rectal intrusion on an otherwise smooth run. I don't get worked up over games frequently, but I'd been having such a good time, it was really un-fun to have the game suddenly pulling such cheap crap.

[Draft]

This game looks kind of shitty. What is all this driving around in a kart nonsense?

I am not down with the Tim Schaefer fellatio that infects most game forums. He did make Grim Fandango, which I consider a bonafide classic and the highpoint of the traditional adventure genre, but I think the man's got some serious flaws as a game designer. Just being funny (and he is probably the funniest game industry dude who didn't write for OMM or work at Tales for Games) isn't good enough.
