On /v/eddit? No shit. All the underage cucks here care about is their shitty "super hardcore xDDD" meme game.

I'm looking forward to it though. Is Stallone going to be in the game too, or just the movie?

Absolutely. I'm waiting till later to pick up a copy.

I'm gonna have to give the game a hard pass. Pretty bad when a 2003 game that it's based on has way better animation.
>>
>>333686564
People thinking this is wrong when this game is literally a rehash of the first game made even worse with the babby story "improvements" the other games in the series were rehashes too, but they couldn't even come up with something new this time, embarrassing.

I'm getting both. Already have Dark Souls III on Steam. Gonna pick this up on launch. Haven't played an R&C game since Up Your Arsenal, but I'm hyped as fuck for this.

I'm pretty sure the build from today's footage is the same as the demo build from a month ago which is also probably the final build. That said, some of the dialog animations are fine, it's just that Ratchet's looks weird at times.

I lost all respect I had for insomniac after their article on how fps doesn't correlate with review scores, so it shouldn't matter.

A good chunk of the GrummelNet weapons do the same shit as some of the originals. Zurkon and Groovinator for the nth time is kinda lazy but what can you do.

Ratchet was never supposed to be a total dickbag in the original. You can write it off as character development but multiple Insomniac developers have stated that it was unintentional.

Nigga let me just tell you, the most revered Ratchet and Clank game had the worst gameplay of the entire series.

Some levels are nigh 1:1, some are fused with other planets (Hoven + Batalia), some have completely new areas added (Gaspar), and there's supposedly some new planets too.

A good chunk of the weapons are GrummelNet staples, with a handful of Gadgetron ones. There's only 2 new weapons (Pixelizer and Proton Drum) that we know of.

The amount of people believing something doesn't change facts. Halo 2 is radically different than Halo CE, Halo 3 is radically different than Halo 2, eat.

Name literally any other series that adds as many weapons, vehicles, gameplay mechanics, enemy types, multiplayer customization. Not to mention inventing the couch splitscreen multiplayer's popularity, inventing lobby based matchmaking.

Even if you are right about the deadlocked thing, it's completely within realm of reason that the deadlocked newscasters, or whoever the fuck, might have not known that female lombaxes don't have tails and assumed that she wasn't one.

I am going to be switching back and fourth between dark souls 3 and this game. Decided to make an NA account to get it too because game doesn't release until the 20th here. Why did Insomniac do that?

To be fair, the Ratchet and Clank series sold on brand recognition for the most part, but this game is supposed to be aimed at a new audience of kids, not marketing this game towards them feels counter productive
>>333692243
Well, hopefully the film does do decently at the box office

Nah, I bought both.

Ratchet & Clank for my PS4, Dark Souls 3 for my PC :^)

I think they're hoping the movie acts as enough promotion, however the movie is getting equally little marketing
I've been seeing a shitton of the same ratchet ad on facebook through 'your friends like playstation' however that's more than likely targeted and not actually going to the people who don't already know about it

Almost completely different audiences, especially since it's launching with a movie as well.

Dark Souls isn't even that popular. It's not Fallout 4 or some shit.

Jesus, the souls fanbase really is one of the most cancerous groups around

Dude, that actually proves him right. That link shows that Deadlock's section has been edited and only contains what was said in ACIT.

When those arena announcers in Deadlocked said she wasn't a Lombax, it got people fed up for years until ACIT.

There goes my concern of this game being too easy
>>
>>333692823

She was never dead, she just escaped to a different dimension with max apogee because TJ is too much of a hack to want to deal with her

The digital manual of the RC collection is not canon, it's literally just 'all of these characters from ratchet's past came together to watch a clip show'
>>
>>333692926

I don't see anything on that talk page mentioning deadlocked
>>
>>333692926
I searched deadlocked, and came up with nothing. If people were arguing I'm sure it would've been brought up.

>>333692976
Not necessarily. They could've just fled to Jashindu and not use the Dimensionator. Angela had no reason to go with the Lombaxes if Jashindu had offered her safety from Tachyon.
>>
>>333693201
>Not necessarily
You do realise that's literally explicitly the explanation that is given in Crack in Time right?

>>333685681
Probably. R&C has always been overlooked as a series though.
>>
>>333692639
TRIGGERED
>>
>>333693296
No, only that they fled and possibly got protection in Jashindu. There was no concrete mentioning of her having used the Dimensionator.
>>
I stopped playing these games after the first PS2 trilogy. How was the Future series?
>>
>>333693542

The writing shifts to a more story focused approach, but the gameplay is still basically the same. ToD had some gimmicky weapons and gadgets because DS3.
>>
>>333693542
Tools and a Crack in Time are both worth playing through
>>
>>333693542
ToD is okay fairly typical R&C stuff. It's an early PS3 game however so there's wonky shit like Sixaixes motion control for some of the weapons.

Quest of booty is just okay not much else to say other than there's more of focus on platforming then fighting shit.

Crack in Time is pretty good.

Can't say anything about Nexus.
>>
>>333693542

Nexus is the closest the PS3 gets to a PS2 style ratchet
>>
>>333686564

What, no. This is the first mainline R&C game in a long, long time.
>>
>>333693542
A Crack in Time is without a doubt the best in the series, not memeing
>>
>>333693896
But Nexus was short and hot booty.

ToD and ACiT were better in every way.
>>
>>333693896
Nexus was fun, had some impressive visuals but holy fuck it was way too short.
>>
>>333693992

Shortness is irrelevant, its mechanics and execution were the closest to a PS2 ratchet
>branching paths (CIT all but entirely removed this because muh narrative)
>levitator 2.0: this time it's useful edition
>rising water sections
>those slideshow commercial cutscenes
>farming level
>2D side scrolling puzzles, spiritual successor to vidcomics
>platforming arena challenges

The game was short but it was still made up of a lot of revitalised elements that made the PS2 games
>>
>>333694273
>Shortness is irrelevant
No, and the 2D sidescroling sections weren't nearly as fun as vidcomics.
>>
>>333690025
It's obviously Going Commando. Snow Beast award.

It is my favourite because of the level design and weapons (unbalanced as they may be), but I prefer the story and characters of R&C1.
>>
>>333694582
>No
Except it LITERALLY IS when you're analysing the mechanics
Mechanics are independent to the length of the game, and disregarding a game because it's short is equally ignorant
>>
>>333690025
>that game was unbalanced as shit
How the fuck was GC unbalanced? The snowbeasts were an outlier
>>
>>333691942
Play on hard for your first playthrough, otherwise it's for literally children.

Ratchet and Clank games always have a good NG+ mode with extra weapon upgrades and stuff, plus loads of secrets. A Crack in Time had a bunch of optional moons/side missions which were awesome, but I doubt this game will have that.
>>
>>333694910

Hard mode + don't ever buy armor
>>
>>333694810
No man, it's the same case with DMC4:SE, it has a fuckton of amazing mechanics but the game is boring because there's only like 16 enemies, 5 bosses and i's short as shit. Same case with Nexus to a lesser extent but it's still too short for a R&C game.
>>
>>333694884
Early game weapons became useless due to HP creep on enemies. Once you were in NG+ and got everything to max it balanced out again though.
>>
>>333695154

What you just described is GOOD balancing
Earlier weapons SHOULD become weak otherwise there would never be a need to buy new weapons. In NG+ it's okay for the ultimate upgrades to be even since you've already bought everything, but until that point the game needs to motivate you to buy new things
>>
>>333695003

Your argument is still flawed, length may impact your overall opinion of the game but it doesn't impact the quality of the mechanics
All I was saying is that Nexus's gameplay takes a lot of inspiration from the PS2 games. That's true and there's empirical evidence (the devs even said outright they played all the old games as research for nexus and it influenced them).

Even though the game is short, the content that's there is quality. A short game is not inherently a bad game, and to suggest so is arrogantly idiotic
>>
It's been so long since a real decent actual R&C title. Gonna have to wait for the general verdict but part of me wants to pre-order it for The Bouncer but I'll hate myself for doing that.

Have you played the PS2 versions before?

The PS3 ports are mostly competent, however they lack the polish of the original games and have an assortment of visual bugs

>>333696645

The first game has some glaring graphical glitches - but it's a far, far superior experience to emulating.

Go for it.
>>
>>333692957

I hated the sewer section. Only reasonable explanation for why it exists is Insomniac Games may have used it as a hint for how bullshit Going Commando could be.

How many people do they think that haven't played R&C are actually gonna go see the movie
>>
>>333696987

They're counting on a lot
Did the commercial try to push the fact that it's based on a video game or are they promoting it as if it's a standalone product?
>>
>>333696987

Part of the reason why the moviegame is a retelling of the original is to re-introduce Ratchet to a newer audience.
>>
>>333695262
I actually agree with you, but it's a very common complaint about the game.

The only time it becomes an issue is if you don't buy a weapon straight away (because unless you grind you can't afford everything) and then later when you get the gun you've been saving for its useless until you upgrade it, which takes so long the upgraded version is useless by the time you get it.

It's really not hard once you know how to do it, and nothing in GC outside of trying to beat Mech without turrets is bullshit either.

They were designed for 12 year olds.

>>333698550
There were games looking better than it in 2002 like Kingdom Hearts. I dont think there is a game looking better than the new R&C for now.

Maybe except Battlefront.

Trying the impossible challenge with no armor upgrades before you've maxed out all your weapons

I hope there is an Area in the game.

>>333698950

I suppose Deadlocked/Gladiator is your favourite.

It isn't.

But i liked it much more than many. Especially because of that Soundtrack.

No arena according to Insomniac. Hoverboard races have multiple difficulties/cups though.

Watched a playthrough up until G34, not one skill point in sight IIRC. Moreover, the relevant menu is nowhere to be found. I have skipped a bit here and there though, so feel free to prove me wrong.

That player has no skill whatsoever so it adds up.

There's an extras menu on the pause screen.

GC's probably the one that stands to gain a bit more from all this remaking business, without turning into another game outright.
The first one was dated, yeah, but had a lot of cool quirks that had to go with this remake.

>>333701726
God fucking dammit.
What did they spend all that "extra polishing time" on, when they didn't even have an arena? When even fucking Into the Nexus had one? Jesus.

Isn't the extra menu for the Gold Bolt-unlocked cheats? I recall skins (masks actually) and other cheats being linked to Gold Bolts, which doesn't rule out skill points per se but makes them kind of redundant.

The extras/special menu is where they shove Skill Points, Cheats, and other unlockables under.
