I hope so, I had a ton of fun with it.
I hope Yooka-Laylee releases this year.

Sony massively undershipped it, whether because shit like Tearaway bombed or because they're trying to create artificial demand.

We won't know if it did well for at least a month.

Is this game good?
I have a PS4 which I haven't played in years and haven't been on /v/ in a little while to see the shitposts.

With Uncharted 4 on the way I'm excited to have a reason to play it, but if the verdict on this game is that it's great I'll certainly pick it up.

Didn't like the last RaC game but I like Crack in Time and ToD.

Reposting opinion.

Never played any previous iterations of this series, but I've beaten the game on Normal and currently going through it again on Challenge Mode.

This game is really good, it feels very video gamey, in the good way. It doesn't take itself too seriously because it isn't supposed to, it feels very classic while still feeling modern at the same time, and the graphics are gorgeous, not to mention the writing is pretty good too, a lot of the characters are given, well, actual character, except for maybe one or two here and there, who aren't bad, but they're not very memorable to me, but that's just my personal opinion.

If I had to nitpick, and I suppose this isn't that much of a nitpick and actually has some importance, and say that there was an aspect of the game I didn't like, it'd probably have to be the music. Not that it's bad, but its just not very good or memorable either, I never heard a track and felt that I'd be humming it later. Again, my personal opinion.

The weapons are all pretty fun, with the exception of maybe the Combuster, which is just kinda your standard firearm, but again, if I had to say something I didn't like, it'd have to be the fact that the Bouncer was a Pre-Order bonus. I pre-ordered the game, and while I had a whole lot of fun using that weapon, I felt I was really only using it alone, just because of how overpowered it was, but also because I enjoyed using it, so I feel a bit conflicted about it in general. I think it should have been in the game to begin with, and it's a bit unfair in a way.

While I thought it was definitely enjoyable, there were some parts where I felt it kinda ruined the pace, specifically the parts where you control Clank, due to his limited movement and weaponry, and his parts are either running away from an enemy, or solving a puzzle.

Overall, I think the game is fantastic, with two or three issues here and there, that thankfully don't overstay their welcome.
>>
>>335024335
The general consensus is that the writing is weaker than the original trilogy, the weapon roster is kinda lame and some characters got absolutely shafted.

It's gorgeous and very fun to play though. Basically, a Nintendo game for PS4.
>>
>>335025008
how's the humour?

The series has always got at least a sensible chuckle from me, we all good on dumb goofy bullshit?
>>
>>335025148
There's not much humor
>>
>>335023471
Does it still have the plumbers crack joke? This is important.
>>
>>335025008
This except replace music problem with lack of character interaction problem and rushed story.

It's a blatant Excuse Plot where Ratchet and Clank become BFFs in 20 seconds and then never talk to each for the rest of the game or develop their own characters. The most blatant example being when Ratchet gets depressed and gets over it in the span of 2 minutes.
>>
R&C is dead, the series is from a different time
>>
>>335025195
It does not
>>
>>335025008

You should try 2 and 3 on PS2 or PS3.
The music is really great, and pretty unique.

As a fan of the series and a massive fan of quark, quarks writing is spot on, hes still a slimy fuck and it shows in the dialoge which had me chuckle a few times.

Wish my pc wasn't terrible so I could emulate the original.
>>
>>335025148
It's light-hearted, but pretty good. There's a lot of jokes I felt that hit really well, and it got a chuckle out of me here and there.
There's a really funny joke on Novalis when you finish the level.

>>335025231
I have a feeling it's mainly because they're either saving it more for the movie, or that it's trying to be so much like the movie.
>>
What's with the sudden shilling of this game? Fuck off.
>>
>>335025353

Even if your PC was the best on the planet, you'd be stuck with PS2 performance.

Just get the HD trilogy on PS3 or play the PS2 original.

Yeah, we should make another twenty Dark Souls 3 threads.

Fuck I want 3d platformer/adventure games to come back. I got so desperate I bought Knack for $10... It was ok for that price.

Yooka-Laylee is gonna be the make or break game if it is a huge success I can see people wanting to replicate it or at least M$ will dust off banjo and rape him silly again.

Do you think Insomniac will remake the other 2 PS2 Ratchet games?
Or make a new PS4 Ratchet game?
I hope it's the latter.
>>
>>335025697
>I got so desperate I bought Knack

You poor soul.
>>
>>335025732
They'll probably make more reboots with even more handholding and less characterization
>>
>>335025732

I don't think I want any more Ratchet games.
>>
>>335025732
I agree, might as well treat it like a reboot and do some new stuff with the games. I'm sure some people will get pissy but I'd rather not retread more games I've already played, one was fine.

Bring back the arenas though, the racing is dull.
>>
>>335025732
If the movie succeeds we're definitely gonna get more.

If it fails there may be a break before the next as they try to figure out where to take the series.
>>
>>335025146
There's less weapons but more ways to upgrade them. Quality over quantity.
>>
>>335025231
Is he as angsty as he was in the original? The VA in the first game gave Ratchet a lot more emotion than the second VA ever did.
>>
>>335026269
No.

>>335025353
>>335025406
>>335025502
PCSX2 doesn't support the texture method used in R&C/J&D, so you're stuck in software mode, which only runs well if you've got a 4-6 core processor running at 5GHZ+, and even then performance will still be choppy.
>>
I hope so, I really wish this happens
>>
I want a Jak & Daxter reboot.

And Spyro.
>>
>>335027793

Jak badly needs a reboot.
>>
>>335028405
How about a sequel where he fights crime in Krass City from Jak X?
>>
>>335028668

None of that edgy shit, start from Jak 1 and progress like normal without any time travel bullshit.
>>
>>335023471
I think the have more riding on he movie then they do the game.
I hope it does moderately well so we can see a R&C 2.
We know the protopet exists in the Solana galaxy so it might be possible, although I don't see how Qwark can be the villain.

I just want newer games made by the main team without them going to make more spinoffs. It's nice that they went back to modernize the first game but R&C is a fun series I want them to continue with newer ones rather than retreading old ground.
