Cleared Normal with Blaze, think Axel felt better. At 1 million points, unlocked some SOR3 characters (Skate the latest)

Unlocked the last (?) character - Shiva from SOR3. The bar stops filling after that, so I guess no more unlockables? IDK

Just beat it with my son.  My daughter played with us up Stage 7.  3p is chaos.  We were having a total blast!  Game fucking owns.

What did you think overall, demi? Interested in your viewpoint.

I just finished a playthrough (Axel - Normal) and it was much better the second time - mostly A/S ranks

I think it's fun, but the armor/i-frames enemies get is annoying along with their sudden wake-ups.
The worst enemy is easily the tazer-cops their grab is stupid and can get you from half screen.

Gonna play with all characters for the achievements. Just unlocked Skate ("All SOR2 Characters") so I imagine SOR3 characters are next

Yeah, I just got to stage 5 and really liking it but my only complaint so far is the super armor and half-screen grabs. Been grabbed by taser cops a bunch.

Also I suck at Floyd, every other character I got through the stages fine, but when I tried Floyd I died like halfway through stage 4. I really like Cherry. Her moveset is awesome. Guitar movesets are always awesome. Her HP seemed really low though compared to the others, not sure if it was just in my head or she has less HP. Axel and Blaze are great.

I do miss the old school tactics of basing things around stun-locking, but otherwise this seems really good. Looking forward to doing a bunch of runs.

something about the timing with axel feels right

Yeah I've seen people not able to figure out Axel right away calling him low tier, but they end up stuck at the cop shield enemies and I never had an issue with him with Axel. Dude's a tank and gives out a nice deal of damage with enough maneuverability. He's also not THAT slow, or even slow at all, not sure what these impatient fucks are huffing.

Oh yeah, I still don't have a good strategy for the shield cops. They aren't bad 1 on 1, but with 2 or more of them I find them pretty annoying to fight without letting their shields regen.

Floyd with pits/elevators is pure domination.  I thought I really sucked with him too, but I get his strengths now.

Beat the game with Blaze yesterday cause I didn't want to switch to another character in the middle of a playthrough.

I tried all characters briefly after beating it and Axel didn't appeal to me for some reason. Maybe his range? I like Adam better, but I kept dashing behind enemies instead of doing his special. Cherry is weird. Her sprite makes it difficult to tell at a glance what plane you're on. Floyd is probably my favourite. His special is excellent.

Also, screw the secret ice level, aka the bath house. Stupid slippery floor. >:(

The more I play Cherry the more I might have to put her at the bottom of the list. The game wants you to play passive and cautious, and Cherry's fast movement and her low strength and range make her kinda weak.

And she doesn't have a throw for crowd control. That's a pretty useful tool.

Damn, that was too close. I am not good at dealing with dodging these boss moves that track you and move far horizontally and vertically across planes. Makes me miss the up, up / down, down vertical movement of Fight n' Rage.

Learned a little tip for points - if you go into  retro level, you come back full health. So if you can, leave any food alone and do the arcade first, when you come back you can get free points from the food.

I tried this last night, had had a few beers so wasn't playing too sharp though. The game is tough as nails, even on Normal. Got my ass handed to me by the first boss.

The action is super tight and the graphics and sound are SLICK. You can see the devs really cared about this game living up to expectations. Looking forward to getting deeper into it.

Cherry's design and moveset is :lawd

Something to keep in mind for dealing with enemies: keep hitting them before they hit the ground, you don't even need screen clears as there's a lot of walls you can knock enemies into which keeps everything flowing. Like shown here:

The retro music option is a bit underwhelming.. I'm glad it's there, but it's kinda half assed... Not sure why they bother with the 8bit sounds.. plus, there's practically no SOR1 tracks.   :-\
I guess I expected a full on SOR1-3 dj shuffle.. I want that SOR1 Stage 1 track on there! :punch

Son and I played again tonight.  Got up to unlocking Max.

I want a playlist option so bad..I only like half the soundtrack, and the track selection for the retro OST isn't ideal (no dreamer, iffy contextual use, game gear tracks). As is I leave retro ost on until i get to chinatown and toggle it back on after the concert.   :doge

Love the game though. It's got some minor stuff that may or may not annoy me more over time (you should be able to grab out of or break some enemy's super armor given how prevalent it is, i think juggling should happen less frequently) but overall I like all the added enemies, bosses, and I really like the art. Great sequel.  :)
