Why are Westerners so shit at making action games?

DMC: Devil May Cry is a better action game than anything Japan has ever shit out.

Easiest game ever

That video is like mashing the basic attack in DMC4 and complaining that you can kill enemies by just pressing a button.

Not to mention that only works against normal dudes.

That's a rhythm game mayng

Is this Dynasty Warriors?

>>316493563
Try that shit in any Ninja Gaiden and see if you don't get rekt in seconds.
>>
>>316493563
why even bother mentioning it? this thread has been done to death and the reply is always the same
>have you even played that game? you can't actually beat it/anything/ larger enemies with one button

I doubt that'd work, even against scarecrows.
>>
>>316493563
Actually, it's the equivalent of holding block against starting enemies in Ninja Gaiden. In Batman, your counters only deal damage if it's a 3x combo or higher. Mashing does nothing.
>>
Arkham games are easy shit, but spamming counter won't get you anywhere, it's not asscreed where counters give you instakills.
In fact spamming prevents you from getting those one shot finishers.
>>
>>316494219
Basic combo works against scarecrows, beyond that not so much
>>
20 minutes to kill the most basic of enemies because you choose to play like a retard instead of using different attacks that maximize your score.

>play Dark Souls instead it's hardcore xDDDD

God is Dunkey a fucking autistic retard. He looks like this guy, cried about how his internet girlfriend was actually a dude, and complains that the mashing the dodge button will make Batman dodge
>>
Don't you need to perform finishing moves to defeat opponents in the Arkham games? Just mashing the reaction button doesn't really prove anything because you're not gonna beat them, just constantly react.
>>
>>316494208
>literal cheat item
>>
they didnt listen what tak fuji had to say
>>
>>316494584
Not against a large group of scarecrows.
>>
desu Jap shit has nothing on Quake, Mount&Blade and Chivalry.
>>
>>316493538

It objectively has by far the best combat in the series. The only reason people cry about it is because "muh white haired Dante!"
>>
>>316495175
No, countering does a bit of damage.
>>
>>316495561

-1/10

>>316493998
NG isn't shit like DMC tho
>>
>>316493563
DMC4 doesn't have a don't touch me button
>>
>>316495561
you fags still exist?
>>
>>316495491
>Quake

That's an FPS.

>Mount&Blade and Chivalry

Both have shit combat.
>>
>>316495920
Shooters are action games Anon.

Chivalry is the superior dueling game while Mount&Blade has huge battles with hundreds of combatants. I really can't see how any Platinum game compares. They tend to be stupidly easy unless you go for the self-imposed challenge of maximizing score.
>>
AAA games dont have good combat because they need to make the player feel like they are doing "epic" things and you cant have the "epic" actions behind a skill wall so you make the combat super simple and flashy so everybody who has the basics of playing videogames down can feel like they're great
>>
>>316496489
>Shooters are action games Anon.

Maybe, but they're in a different category than the games we're talking about.

>Chivalry is the superior dueling game while Mount&Blade has huge battles with hundreds of combatants

Okay, but what does that have to do with how good the combat is? Both are clunky as fuck to play.

>They tend to be stupidly easy unless you go for the self-imposed challenge of maximizing score.

Yeah, that's the fun in most of them. God Hand is pretty challenging though.
>>
>>316495087
what?
>>
>>316493231
but you're not actually doing any damage, youre just stunning them, you cant win a fight just pressing triangle
