Ninja Theory have just proven themselves to be the best western developers when it comes to combat.

This makes me want DmC 2 even more than I before bros

Lol no. One of the better ones, sure, maybe. My only gripe with DmC is how they market it to the old fans, not the game itself, which is while indeed worse than 3 and 4, quite decent in itself. Even jarring is that Capcom is the one that told NT to did so.

why do they say its fluid fighting when its not fluid? We see that many times her animation happens so quick it can be a teleportation. She swings a sword from the A position and immidiatly her sword is in the B position. Nothing in between. I want to see the whole arc, i don't believe that she swings her sword so fast i can't see it happening. Fuck this shit.

What is this? I've never heard of it.

Nonetheless, looks okay, but repetitive. Is this all you do? Fight the same tall dude with antlers over and over again? Combat looks awkward, slow and stiff.

The first time you die or reach a checkpoint you get sent to the hunters dream which is where you get the first weapon in the game

>>339921720
You know what? I'll give you best aRPG because even Dragon's Dogma had some real fucking problems with level design, but I'd still say that DMC3 or the like edges out Bloodborne's combat itself.

So that's for Bloodborne 2 to match. Or you know, whatever IP From does, it's surprising to see how far they've come since King's Field and I hope they continue to push their combat into faster and harder-hitting realms.

>>339921778
There's only 2 ways to get weapons by that point in Bloodborne - you die, or you light the a lamp.

But what makes dark souls so good, when the video of this game is very bad? It's a mistery.
The answer is - Dark Souls isn't cinematic and don't have a main character. Your chosen undead is no one. He just exists in this world so you can reveal the story of the world and its characters, not the sob story of your fucking character.
Fuck I hate this cinema games, pls make more gamey games, where the plot are supported by gameplay, not separated by it

but she still wields the huge ass sword(very quickly) and she compensate for her supposed lack of strength by making loud noises. Also if a Viking is really strong his blows would just cut her in half. Can you imagine how thin her arms are? Can you imagine how heavy the Viking's sword is?

At 0:55 in the video, that literally looks like a shot they used in DmC. The way the camera moves and the background looks.

DmC is one of the better Western action games (not hard considering how low the bar is) and yet looking at this new game it seems like Ninja Theory learned nothing from it. Though I suppose they never truly understood what made DMC great in the first place.
>>
>>339922727
I can't tell if people are serious when they say DmC was entertaining or alright or good if you don't see it as a DMC game. It was bland, had a shit story even on its own and was piss easy.

The best, you mean. It's either this or the three people who valiantly defend Severance: Blade of Darkness.

They weren't that far off. They even made some good decisions: like incorporating swordmaster and gunslinger into the base moveset.

Most of the bad shit is holdover from fucking Heavenly Sword.

When the bullet points of your action game progress report are that you have a combat editor, or a half-decent lock-on system, or that you can change the lighting dynamically, or that enemies make certain sounds depending on what they're doing..

It's unimpressive. You're bragging about features that should be standard in the genre or even just in videogames generally.

The importance placed on visuals and story are enough to tell you by themselves that Ninja Theory didn't learn enough from Itsuno and his team. These guys are always going to be twenty steps behind Capcom and PG.

Twenty years, more like. They're lagging behind so bad in just about every aspect, it's embarrassing.

Trying to name the best western-developed action game is sort of like trying to name the world's greatest dictator. It doesn't really matter what the answer is if they're still a dictator.

>>339923209
Neither game was particularly deep, but depth isn't the only parameter for measuring how good a game is. I think Rising's overall design is way stronger than something like DmC.

>>339923272
Well, in truth MadWorld works a little more like a puzzle game than a standard beat 'em up, the combat is a little slower in standard areas, so it makes sense that at least initially the camera feels like a better fit.

There was plenty of valid criticism on combat presented over the years and yet in every thread there's some dipshit claiming "ur just mad bout hair and story".

I'm well aware there's plenty of valid criticism concerning DmC's combat (I'm not a huge fan myself) but there's definitely a lot of baseless bandwagoning on /v/ and abroad.
>>
>>339923374
>valid criticisms of DmC's combat

no lock on
no directional inputsI do not mean the double tap direction + light attack shit
special melee button for launching and lowering yourself/enemies.
moon gravity with leniant positioning required for jump canceling means air game is trivial as f
multiple glitches from enemy freezing, going out of bounds, events not triggering properly etc
shitty color coding garbage unless in devil trigger which limits player's variety and fun
Cutscenes, whip it moments in bossfights that breaks flow
boring and tedious as fuck platforming
El Donte's moveset/arsenal is neutered versions of both Dante and Nero from DMC4, and whatever replacements it made feels shallow or just plain inferior.
Game can be so easily broken whether it's using demon evade/DT to just destroy everything, or to stay in midair infnitely by using couple of attacks
Angel weapons do so little damage making blue enemies feel like forever to kill.
Some moments in the game in higher difficulty are just not fun due to retarded enemy placement Witches that will create shields for enemies with multiple teleporting swordsmen? Fuck off
Enemy design for half of the enemies feels like it was made to be fought in one way and Donte/Vergin's moveset is too limited to circumvent that design.
no taunting
Devil Trigger has been reduced to a heal + do more damage button while enemies float helplessly midair button, where as in previous games they added/changed moves

I played the series casually but even I can point out what DmC fucked up.

This is actually adressed in the video, though.
Game seems to have plenty of problems, like the swinging animations skipping frames to fulfill a function that needs to happen quickly, or the emtpy environments.
But multi enemy combat seems functional, and is a big part of the video.
>>
>>339916867
What is with this combat?
Anyone competent shouldn't be staggered at 1:29.
And if you say "You need to hit the right button to not get staggered and do a sick spin instead!" then how is this any different to quick time events?

Swordfighting doesn't involve as much responding to what your opponent does as you might think; as long as they don't lose focus, someone with an intuition for swordplay should automatically block or parry.
What the swordfighter is mainly involved in consciously is in the overall strategy, figuring out how to outplay their opponent and carefully noting anything unusual about their technique.

Which is why some ancient Greek army said to not fight one foe for too long lest they adapt to your fighting style.

Game looks better than I expected, but very slow and boring. I mean I don't think all action games have to be fast paced like DMC or Ninja Gaiden, but this looks braindead and watching the video it felt like the enemies were zombies or something. They're basically just standing there looking at you and occasionally take a few steps to their side to wave their arms a bit, and rarely attack. Like they're not even trying to defend themselves either. Even when it's 3v1 and they could easily bum rush the player and overpower them, they stand around grunting like retards. I hope they just turned the ai down for the combat demonstration, but I doubt it.

Fuck off shill, Ninja Theory have proven time and again they are one of the WORST western devs when it comes to combat.
They completely butchered DmC's combat, to the point where it seems that they never even played the games it was supposed to be the successor to.
Hellblade is guaranteed to be mediocre, uninspired dog shit, even if you had no idea who Ninja Theory are, the game's name alone should have set off red flags for this.

If someone don't want to play a game because the protagonist is a buff man or some shit, thats their prerrogative, the wrong thing with SJWs is that they try to make it an argument and justify their preferences like its some kind of justice or only they are right.

Of course you can have preferences.
But this shit happens every time a new game is announced and it has a female protag. Every single time.
I won't believe for a single moment that all the people that whine about this shit do that just because "it's a preference".
Besides, and this is just my stupid opinion, but gameplay should go first when judging a game. Discarding a game based around the fact that protag is a woman with some fucking determination makes me think you're either a memester that follows the mass or a whiny /pol/tard.
>>339931952
Yes some games work better with a male protag and some the opposite. But I think it isn't enough to dismiss an entire game.
