It's really a good metroidvania, the only thing fans of the genre would dislike are the cute girls and the difficulty.

I don't mind the cute girls, the absolutely ridiculous dialogue and story though is a problem.

"Master, i am a rabbit. Yes tell me i am a cute rabbit"
"Yes you are cute and have small hands and like stuff alot"

Not even the most inane uguu kawaii SoL anime comes close. Still worth playing for the gameplay and OST though.

The "design" is shit. Generic as fuck anime girls. It couldn't possibly get any less creative.

The combat sucks. You keep doing the same combo to everything over and over. Just look at this video someone posted: >>336463791

Could be good but it's aimed towards the speedrun people too much for my taste. I like speedruns, but I like to do them after I get comfortable with the game and beated it. Going fast and speedrunning should abe an optional challenge after you fell in love with the game, not the main focus.

>>336467320

i didn't really get into it for the speedrunning aspect, i think just getting SS for each level was good enough for me. the people at the top of the leaderboards are crazy good -- no way would I be able to top those

i managed to SS all the regular levels, but I only managed to SS two of the Difficult levels before i accepted i wasn't going to SS the rest. the game is amazing and all but I think it was at that point where I didn't really feel like investing much more time practising to get those last few levels down. the 30 or so hours I spent SS'ing all the other levels was more than enough for me

It's pretty hard though, think Dustforce in 3D with small stages and leaderboards.
Unlike Dustforce though, most levels are made with a very "find your own path" mindset so there's always room for improvement and people keep finding new shortcuts.

It's less than 20 dollars for potentially hundreds of hours of gameplay time however, I bought it a week after release and don't regret it, especially with all the content updates it's been getting. Thinking about buying the artbook DLC too because it's adds some neat cut content like playing as different characters in the boss rush and a practically impossible difficulty mode.

It's the best part. The game is also a lot like Sonic games where levels are made of straight gotta go fast parts that are fairly linear and other parts where you have to figure out the fastest path around.

People keep finding new ways to wreck the leaderboards like this guy using a mine to boost himself at sanic speed to the end.

It does indeed start rather slowly with only a few ways to go.
But a few chapters in and it really opens up and becomes a blast.

>>336476873

Rabi Ribi is fun but I kinda dislike the boss scaling. It quickly reaches a point where if you aren't great at maintaining your combo boss fights lasts forever and if you sequence break even teh slightest bit even by mistake, odds are you'll run into a boss that has moves you can't dodge endlessly because you lack items.

I know it's designed to be cleared with no item pickups after tons of patches but it seems a bit too punishing for people who grab everything or didn't know they sequence broke in the first place.

tl;dr - Yes I'm bad at it, boss scaling kinda killed the groove for me but otherwise it's a great game.

The artstyle of this game is so inconsistent and that's what's turning me off.

>>336479803
>you'll run into a boss that has moves you can't dodge endlessly because you lack items.

But boss level scales with the amount of items you have and if you miss an item they won't use attacks that require you to have that item to dodge (instead the attack will be changed a bit so you can dodge it).

>>336480239
I really didn't get that vibe, nothing seemed too out of place.

I dunno, I ran into that meat loving bunny girl and she had a full screen attack that only seemed avoidable with amulet for me and she used it more often than the charge for amulet had in CD. The issue with it was that the entire floor section is covered by a longbunny for a fair bit longer than I could stay in the air.

You don't need to be able to change direction mid-air for a platforming game to be good.

>>336481513

How is that not the same thing? The portraits have a different artstyle than the ingame sprites so in that case the game has "terrible art direction" to the point of being unplayable garbage.
