>that combat
Who woke up and thought that making combat necessarily complex was a good thing?
Its fine in Mario and Luiigi when its consistent for the most part and relies only on straightforward inputs
having seperate elaborate inputs for each character for basic attacks is just dumb
>>
stopped watching at the combat. You going to make me do that every fight? Every attack? Yeah no dropped.

I'd say the only good thing to come out of this is going to be the soundtrack.

its a perfect example of both extremes, JRPGs tend to have overly exaggerated and goofy designs.

This is an example of trying to design your characters as simple and realistic as possible. Which can be done, but this is clearly not a good example of it.

Elaborate attacks should be very sparse, maybe only for the super attacks.

In M&L hammers and jumps are only one quick input whereas the special attacks are a bit more complex

Shut up. Just shut the fuck up you insufferable whiny cunt. It's bad enough that they make you sit through a stupid fucking minigame with your basic attack, but then they make you listen to these fags whine too.

>>334962748
>>334962658
There's a few games that use timing/rhythm as its forms of attack

One series that comes to mind, is the Mario and Luigi rpgs, in which you have to time your attacks depending on what it is, what it does, and sometimes, the size of your enemy. Mother 3's combo system revolves around the beat of the song you're listening to.

There's probably countless other examples, but all of them have something in common, they don't take as long, or drag as much as the ones shown in this video. Andt he ones shown are just regular attacks.
>>
>>334961462
Even if I did like the style of this game, the combat they've shown so far totally kills it.
Who thought it was a good idea to have overly elaborate inputs for literally every attack?
>>
>>334962743
>>334963113
I mean a real rhythm RPG, where fights are rhythm battles.

"Some" being the keyword here. What would you think of the game if, every time you wanted to swing you battleaxe, you had to time button presses for 10 or more seconds?
It grinds the already slow combat to a screeching fucking halt, giving you plenty of time to suffer through the godawful music and the absolutely ugly art design.

Yeah, I've heard FtNW is kinda good but odd, but from what I watched many years ago, the charas seem really stupid, like more stupid that gay vampire or a white wolf playing Solid Snake.

I went from never having heard of it to genuine excitement faster than anything else I've ever seen. I know I'm going to get called a shill or whatever, don't care. The simplistic and surreal visual design really seem interesting. The battle system seems good, too, but could easily get tedious. Without even looking at the thread, I know /v/ will hate it for 'hipster nu-male protag' and 'indieshit' minimalism, but who cares, like what you want and don't let angry fucks on either side tell you you have to hate or love something.

Like seriously lets put this into perspective
Lets say you hire 20 guys to work full time on the game for a year and they're all gonna get $50,000 each for that year, that's the whole $1,000,000 budget for just a year of development

Post-modern is an art term that literally means the "metagame" of the art world.

You know all those art pieces in museums that are literally just opened and used cans of Tomato soup? That would be an example of post-modernism. It's not specifically the art piece itself that is the art, but the reactions it provokes in people from observing it. Such as anger that people would let this garbage into the museum, or the bravado of saying that it's a compelling work of a tormented person.

In the context of fantasy genre stories, usually it just means that the supernatural elements are incorporating modern day technology. Such as elves and fairies having spells that are specific to computer networks, or the dwarves building can-openers.

I fucking hate it.
Not because of the shitty combat.
Or the puke inducing music
Or the hipster theme
But because it actually looks really fucking nice which is what infuriates me the most.

>But because it actually looks really fucking nice which is what infuriates me the most.

>>334984345
'modernism' doesn't mean 'modern trends' but a specific kind of condensed, clear cut storytelling and art that was popular in the 60's and 70's. In reaction to that, people started making post-modernism things that were ambiguous, surreal, and demanded the audience figure out the meaning for themselves rather than have it spelled out.

in more colloquial terms, some people use post-modern to mean 'before its time' or just 'weird for the sake of weird'

The music is a little ugly too. I mean it's better than what was in the other trailers tho. I don't think it looks that bad senpai. I like how the combat is like a bunch of mario party mini games.

They don't have to be, like MGS2 is a post modern game. But usually when someone claims they are making a post modern game, it usually correlates with them having a huge ego about what they are doing, and usually a pretentious product, that needlessly overcomplicates very simple story elements in order to appear deeper than it is.

Maybe this game will actually be good in practice, I don't know, I'll never know, I won't play it.

But man, fuck, can we move away from this artsy stuff? Can we just go back to knights and princesses and shit?

I kind of like the art style, the music is pretty distinct and I do like RPGs set in the modern day but this still doesn't look very good. It looks like it takes itself way too seriously and doesn't seem to have any sense of humor, which I find odd since it says it was inspired by Earthbound. The mini games during combat also seem excessive. I wouldn't mind it if those only popped up during summons or limit breaks, but having them every attack would make fights take so long.

That said, I'd be willing to try a demo. Maybe it is better than the trailer made it look. I try not to judge a game before I get a chance to play it a bit.

Looks fine? Seems like one of those games that's just a newgrounds concept taken to an actual production stage. I'm more bothered by how CLUNKY everything (music, animation, combat) about it is rather than any actual style/setting elements.

There is nothing wrong with them creating their own shit. The problem is when idiots try to destroy other games. If every person I disagreed with buckled down and made their own shit instead of bitching the industry would be 100 times better.

I think you're afraid of their being an actual market for these fags just like how there is a market for furfaggots and ween waifushitters.
>>
>>334961462
Is there a name for what something is when it spends too much energy trying to look like something else, and thus doesn't look like its own thing?

Obviously theres a difference between something you spent years of your life crafting, building, refinings and finishing to create something that is of you, and something thats slap dash "I want it to look like X but must be Y"

This shouldn't even bug me.
It just sucks to see some semblance of talent and ambition going into something potentially cool, and then suddenly just being spent towards something shitty.

Like, I LIKE what I see, but I don't like what I see IN it. Anyone feel me, or am I talking nonsense?

Earthbound was memorable for being goofy with some lighthearted emotional moments. They either use fucking internet "humor" or try way to fucking hard to be emotional. This pisses me off, I fucking love earthbound. All these games and they're shit, I just want something close to the quality of earthbound.

i personally like the music, but i can see why other people would find it annoying.
the voice acting is shit, the "90s nostalgia!" shit is overbearing, the battle system looks cheap, and the game looks like it has too many ideas going on at the same time.
basically, a fucking mess.

earthbound will never be able to be recreated. the environment and feeling of the game was unique to the time it was released.

You should check some games like Earthworm Jim or Toejam and Earl
