Astral chain is probably it.

Metal wolf chaos is bad, right?

Astral Chain, Ninja Saviors, maybe Oninaki if it turns out to be a step above the other Tokyo RPG Factory titles.

bork · « **Reply #5 on:** July 23, 2019, 09:18:57 PM »

I will pick up The Bard's Tale IV at some point. Next month I will still be busy playing Fire Emblem.

paprikastaude · « **Reply #11 on:** July 24, 2019, 08:21:25 AM »

I might try to get a special edition of Metal Wolf just for the sake of it.

Waiting for reviews on Control.

bork · « **Reply #12 on:** July 24, 2019, 08:53:19 AM »

Oh yeah- just like with Hollow Realization, Sword Art Online Fatal Bullet is getting a physical release in Europe. All the usual importers have it for pre-order.

nachobro · « **Reply #13 on:** July 24, 2019, 09:00:09 AM »

I'm just gonna keep poopsocking FF14 but when Age of Wonders and Metal Wolf (is that getting a PC release?) go on discount, I'm in there.

Yeah...

That's when I got it on mine and fucked around with the character creator. It struggled on the laptop, but moreso, it was not controller friendly at all...

I wanna say the price hike is due to it being the "remastered version" they've ported, besides Sony being Sony.

nachobro · « **Reply #18 on:** July 24, 2019, 09:45:37 AM »

looks like it comes with about $20 in cash shop items/BDObux so it evens out

edit: oh wow elions tear is still in the game. i remember people were throwing FITS over that item being in the cash shop

Also when I backed the fuck out of Friday the 13th back in the day, not knowing if I'd ever play it (just because I love the IP and the game seemed full of great ideas), I didn't anticipate it coming to the ultimate Nintendo system. Feels like a game that exists just for me.

Even the boxart is made for me.

I'd like to play Astral Chain, but i don't have a Switch.
I'd like to play Control, but i don't have time for a Metroidvania, and don't want to spend 40€ on it anyway.

I'll get around to both though, eventually (unless they get destroyed in reviews).

paprikastaude · « **Reply #25 on:** July 24, 2019, 12:02:35 PM »

no idea about Control, but Metroidvanias aren't known for long playtimes.

Checked out a video on the Xboner version of Black Desert-- it's apparently way less grindy, which is good, and you can just do quests and get to the end of the game without the need for much else. That's kinda cool. Just not really interested in dropping more than $10 on it when it's that cheap on PC.

It sounds like it might be a "metroidvania" in the same way that Arkham Asylum was a "metroidvania," AKA "not really but you can go back and find some stuff here and there."

I bet it's going to look like ass (it didn't look so hot on PS4), but it's a fun game.

EDIT: Actually looks better on there than I thought it would.

Dead by Daylight shitted all over Friday the 13th. The game is dead on Steam last I saw, while DbD still has players.

Once again, Andy-kun backing losing things.

People who always compared the practially linear Arkham Asylum to Metroid Prime

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #33 on:** July 24, 2019, 07:20:39 PM »

We need an extra layer of distinction, like with Rougelikes and Roguelites.

mormapope · « **Reply #34 on:** July 24, 2019, 07:28:07 PM »

I got 2/3rds thru a hard mode Arkham Asylum playthru before stopping. I beat it many years ago, and imo, Arkham City does everything better.

In Asylum, I got to the part where you have to destroy Poison Ivy pods that shoot auto tracking plant missiles. Before this downward spiral in quality, its felt like:

Battle area
Stealth area
Batle area
Stealth area
Stealth area
Scan objects
Cutscene

Story progression and XP unlock new abilities and content. Exploration away from the main goal in Asylum nets you Riddler stuff, giving you xp and side content.

Metroidvanias reward exploration in more drastic, better ways. New weapons that can be op or have a unique moveset. You can try to break the game using gear and exploits, something I don't know if possible in Asylum.

The Arkham games as a series are character action vehicular stealth games.

Arkham City has a similar forumla, but it starts closer to Asylum's entire skill tree for Batman's abilities, almost from the start of the game. The more cohesive open world map and art design helps a lot too.

Oh, I might end up getting control too.

But we will see. So many freaking games coming out soon, I need to make choices.

Bebpo · « **Reply #39 on:** July 24, 2019, 11:15:02 PM »

Getting Astral Chain even though the vids aren't don't anything for me. Still will give every Platinum games title at least a shot, but probably throwing it in the backlog until I've had time to play DMCV first.

Control seems like a great game I will play mid-next year for free on Xbox Game Pass and will be a reason to upgrade my GPU. I still need to play Quantum Break.

I mean: https://steamcharts.com/cmp/381210,438740

Maybe console folks are more than the 100 players or so F13th gets. But that's pretty shockingly low when compared to like DbD's 24-25,000.

Maybe the "Nintendo Tax" of having a game in a genre that Nintendo never had before (eg: DbD not being on the Shitch) means Andy-kun will have more than 100 players, probably. But... F13th died pretty fast, DbD is still getting support and that's why I'm dunking on him for kickstarting an absolute loser.

Joking aside, i guess my distinction would be that in one, you unlock keys to access previously closed off areas (Resident Evil, Silent Hill etc), in the other, you unlock abilities that function both as combat/traversal mechanics, as well as opening up new areas.

If Resident Evil had a double jump unlock, instead of a Sword Key unlock, i'd classify it as a Metroidvania.

Risk of Rain 1 came out on Xbone, Risk of Rain 2 has come out for Xbone and Switch. Both of these games are way better than most of the weeb or jank ass trash released this month.

Both Risk of Rain games are on PS4, too (and the first one was also released on PS Vita 3 1/2 years ago).
