The visuals look slick, asap on the soundtrack, offline campaign and crossplay. Man we might finally be in a for a good ride, already liked Heat but this might be genre changing with the visuals. Looks so dope.
Anyone know if sth is up with co-op campaign? Tried the first level with a friend, got to the lift and completed it in about 20 odd minutes. It consequently didn't give us the option to start the second level though? Didn't on retry either, tried putting it next to someone's longplay but it didn't seem like I was doing anything wrong.
@Northern_munkey keep fighting the good fight, hope you get through it man β₯οΈ @ApostateMage I almost forgot how great of an npc Parvati was damn. For what was a relatively short game they really knocked her character arc out of the park.
@awp69 when it hits 100+ replies you know what's up. Also applicable to a bad ps plus month, though I think this one's good. @huyi isn't though is it? Just bumped the dealabs leak article when it proved to be true.
@MacRider yeah I'm probably just desensitized but that sounds more like a good rip and tear session. Hence my second question, I think diving into a serial killer's head and experiencing it like a fever dream could be more horror like but that's just my opinion.
@Blackjay I know the game had a myriad of issues, but I mainly played it in singleplayer and it 'only' took me about 40 hours to complete it so I've not had to suffer from a lot of bugs I believe. I mainly liked the difficulty, it's one of the few games I've played that really pushed me (according to the class or w/e it was that I had) to really push and go headstrong into enemies (which I love in shooters and I think not enough games let us do). I get that it wasn't a looker or its soundtrack wasn't the best, story wasn't out there either but I couldn't be bothered. I thought the skills complemented my playstyle well and thus had an absolute blast just ripping and tearing.
@BrotherFilmriss it truly is a shame, he looked the perfect fit.
My headcanon is that he just played her back then, still don't know who actually did so it checks out.
This lass looks a bit odd lol
With so many games finding the perfect middle ground this is just an outdated mechanic imo. Heard Steelrising did a perfect job off it? Anyway I'll still play it given it drops on the pass.
@Smiffy01 I mean a 20 song album is gonna sound repetitive no matter the genre lol Getting those features in really just confirms more exposure and total listeners
@BAMozzy word, it's got me to check the source on all articles now. Especially on sites that post rumours under actual news lol @Netret0120 sensational (thugger voice)
I played the first three levels (out of like 8-10 iirc)
Game is indeed short but manages to throw in a decent and surprising amount of varying weapons.
Whilst it is nice that you can do everything on beat if you're the frantic type you'll probably mess up the combo meter more times than not by mashing the dodge button.
Also gotta add that as a totally non metalhead the music is quite nice. Though ofcourse that can differ quite alot for each individual.
If anything, be sure to do the audio & visual calibration before doing the tutorial.
For those playing Spiritfarer, don't forget it's got couch co-op!
Makes the sim aspect a bit less tedious imo. And easier to just play it for the story.

@helbertpina I thought the plat was good fun. When I finished it I didn't have much left to do for it anyway.
Finding and using the balls got a bit tedious. But it's okay
I think it looks okay, if anything. The four at 91 imo can be bumped to 92 maybe. The best players in the world only at 91/100 just doesn't sit right with me lol. Though I guess when Ronnie and Messi were at a higher rating than 91 they did score an obscene amount. @riceNpea that last line got me π€£ I've been out of the fut loop for a minute but you cleared it up for me why the base ratings are as low as they are. Back when I played we only had totw and toty π
I've never experienced a good one so wouldn't necessarily say it's gotten worse lol. They do all feel hella awkward, none of the folks ever have stage presence. The green screens were funny though in the ubisoft showcase, haven't just spontaneously laughed about anything in a showcase like that before since the devolver ones.
@stvevan they've done a 2d scroller in china before so they might go for the hattrick. Besides they might wanna re-use some of the stuff they're developing for a console game if they ever wanna do one in China.

Re: Interview: Why Asymmetrical Multiplayer Is Perfect for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
@MacRider how exactly would that be horror then though? Are you gunning for some kind of mental battle inside the killer's head or sth?
