Post underrated games

I like this game because it introduced me to Cry of the Banshee by Brocas Helm. It's worth playing Brutal Legend just for the soundtrack.
>>
I actually really enjoyed Brutal Legends back in the day as well.
>>
It was underrated due to misleading advertising. People expected a slasher in a metal world, they got a weird ass RTS. Also campaign just kinda ends abruptly, it's like the whole last third of the game is missing.

Have you played MGS Revengeance? Imagine something like that but with metal tropes instead of jumping from missile to missile flying at you. Would be sick.

Yeah pretty sure that's exactly the case.
Still had a lot of fun with the first two thirds though.

That game was the shit then and now. If anything the sequel gets shit on more than it deserves, even if it is certainly inferior.

Maybe I'll go back for more sometime.

This game was only great to watch. Its gameplay was janky as hell.

Watching a lets play of this will literally give you a more enjoyable experience of the game then playing it, and thats just wrong.

Worth watching though, I will give you that.

Becuase this shit doesn't have a jump button.

I felt really restricted because of that.

This game is overly criticised for not being lorefriendly

Accepting it just being a spinoff would actually make it an enjoyable game

I replayed this game at least 5 times. Played the shit out of multi, sadly dead. My #1 game of all times. I would die a happy man if sequel would happen and wouldnt be half finished like first game. Also dont remove rts sections, one of reasons i love it so much.

It wasn't for several years. Most people who played it and hated the RTS sections played it on a console, because it wasn't on PC.

This. Gameplay's not even that great.

The hacky slash and driving bits are fun but they break it up by barely having hack n slash bits and having long boring rts parts.

But driving around metal hyrule field with motorhead in the background is pretty cool.

Tried to get into this like, 5-6 times but holy fuck it is too dull to finish.

The problem is the MMO scale world and console style combat.

They didn't change the rts parts for pc, and its practically unplayable without a controller because its all built for a controller

Brutal Legend was not underrated tho

The shallow RTS gameplay is terrible. Such a shame because the world, characters and overall theme of the game are great, the gameplay should've been a hack and slash as it was advertised, also that's a style of game that consoles can handle well.

Powerful nostalgia. That was my first big story-driven RPG. It follows plenty of fantasy tropes looking back on it now, but it was still a wild ride.

That aside, I think they had a lot of fun coming up with new environments. Underwater labs, a ghost ship, a forgotten city maintained by robots, etc.
>>
>>322821489
I thought it did its job for the most part. My only gameplay complaint that I recall was that it was hard to use any RTS strategy outside of rushing with whatever units were available, and that driving could be frustrating during high octane escape sequences.

Well, they said if Psychonauts 2 goes well there's always a chance.

So maybe someday.

All indeed underrated.
