You know, I just realized that God Hand is the best game ever made.
>>340744896
That's cool, I realized it a decade ago but it's nice to see someone else come around.
>>340744896
didn't this piece of shit game get like a 2/10 on IGN or something?
>>340745406
Apply effort.
A 3D beat em up done right. If only devs copied it more often instead of DMC.
>>340744896
I'ts one of the most fun games I've ever played
>>340744896
That's nice. I didn't like it much, but I know /v/ is very fond of that game, and has been since forever.
That's not PMTTYD.

This is the worst fucking meme on /v/.
The game is a 7/10 max, but you contrarian faggots will continue to call it perfection.
>>340746345
It has a lot of flaws but can you name any other games that do what God Hand does nearly as well as God Hand? Didn't think so.
>>340746152
Why?
Does it challenge your masculinity?
It is pretty cool but I like Dark Cloud 2 a lot
>>340746152

if a game ever deserved the title of 'meme game' it's this piece of shit right here.
>>340746715
It challenges my patience. Trying to replay any of the Paper Mario games is like trying to inflate a balloon through a garden hose. It blows.

Now this just pisses me off.
TTYD and God Hand are not even in the same league. God Hand has the best combat system of any game, ever, and is the sort of game you can never get tired of playing.
TTYD's not bad at all, but it is NOT the absolute pinnacle of it's genre the way God Hand has proven itself to be.
>>340744896
God Hand is my all time favorite game but I wouldn't even put it nearly that high
>>340745575
The problem with action game devs is that basically all of them are western or Platinum lackeys, and they all lack a distinguishable passion/vision for the genre, which is really sad.
>>340749036
THATS COOL COVER ART FOR RUNESCAPE BECAUSE THERE IS NONE NO SHIT ITS A BOOK YOU FAGGOT
Godhand is one of those games where if you suck at it then you think the game sucks. The more you learn about how to play it then the better it is.
>>340749431
>God Hand has the best combat system of any game, ever
DMC4
Don't get me wrong I enjoyed God Hand leagues more but you're delusional if you think God Hand's combat is that good
>>340749713
Customizable move sets > Style switching
You can have way more playstyles in Godhand so i think that puts it above DMC
>>340749713
DMC fags are just as delusional as Dark Souls fans. They act like it's this super complicated game, but in reality it doesn't come together very well at all.
Ha.
Nice shit tastes /v/
>>340744896
had to ruin it for you :^)
>>340749713
DMC4's combat system is good in the sense that it allows a lot of freedom for the player if they want to show off, but the balance is very bad. Great players in DMC4 are barely even playing the actual game to the point where they even disregard the game's built in scoring system if it can't recognize what they consider to be impressive. In comparison to that God Hand is all about how well you can use the combat system to just play the game normally.
>>340749864
>You can have way more playstyles in Godhand
Correction, your moves have a load of more quantity in inspirational sources. Dante has more properties, multipurpose moves, and advanced techniques attached to his base moveset in one style than Gene practically could ever in even three movesets.
>>340749910
The only thing God Hand's combat depth has above DMC's is that it has an incomparably superior enemy roster but it pales in absolutely everything else. It's not technically difficult to execute anything (except Prompt Cancels but that's it), crowd control options are a lot more limited and one track in comparison, and Gene being unable to access airgame as largely as Dante puts him at a huge disadvantage for juxtaposed potential.
>They act like it's this super complicated game, but in reality it doesn't come together very well at all.
And your proof for this would be?
>>340750242
Agreed. I disagree slightly on the DMC4 players part but other than that, agreed.
Why is this game so highly praised?
Is it contrarianism? The quest to be unique? Is it because it's a Japanese game?
There's no way it can be as incredible as /v/ says, it's a fucking weeby fighting game.
>>340750846
There is no other game like it and it's contranian to hate it.
>>340749652
Yeah it's hard to deny that the clunkyness is there but it's so rewarding to learn that it doesn't even matter after your first playthrough. The only real big issue is the soft lock which can be surprisingly unpredictable and fucks up my set ups way too often
>>340750960

>>340751007
>Yeah it's hard to deny that the clunkyness is there but it's so rewarding to learn that it doesn't even matter after your first playthrough
I hate this so much when people complain about its controls though. The autolock is one thing but the overall control scheme for God Hand is fantastic, because changing the general idea for something else based on a first impression would make it objectively worse. For instance, the infamous "make the right stick a camera angle change".The entire system was made specifically in mind to work a certain way, and the gameplay earns all sorts of objective benefits from because of it.
Control scheme choices like gyro in Star Fox Zero where it's extra, annoying learning curve for something that isn't necessary and could've benefited much greater with normal stick controls instead is what you call a less than favorable control scheme; because it brings irritation to the table with nothing to earn nor learn from it. God Hand is entirely contrary to that erroneous philosophy.
>>340750613
That's like saying Super Mario 64 is the best platformer ever made because of that Rolling Rocks video. Having technical depth, in and of itself, doesn't make it the best.
>>340750846
Or how about because it's a good game. It combines the style, emphasis on crowd control and dangerous enemies from old school beat em ups with some of the flashy combo depth of DMC-style beat em ups. The result is one of a kind. Also the rank system is fucking awesome. You'd have a very hard time finding a game which handles its difficult levels as well as God Hand.
>>340744896
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpatcsTh4Og
I loved that sound track, so I used that in my dark souls playing record.
>>340747498
That's a fair choice, and trying to replay Paper Mario 1 is still timeless to me, TTYD is definitely sour milk which no amount of humorous dialogue will redeem, but Paper Mario 1 is a fine wine, it only gets better with age.
>>340751502
That's only a comparison that works to support your point, assuming that's even applicable the same way to DMC.
I'd play God Hand over DMC anyday but merit's due where merit's due.
>>340747498
>trying to inflate a balloon through a garden hose.
That's probably not very difficult
>>340751467
>He believes the 'Star Fox Zero controls are bad' meme.
You're embarrassing yourself.
>>340751828
>It blows
I think he was aiming for a pun there
>>340751862
I never said they were bad, I said they were less than favorable.
If you're not retarded at videogames you can get used to gyro without too much hassle, but the gyro doesn't bring anything practically beneficial, yet manages to cause problems that exist outside of stick anyway.
Also provided it's a Nintendo game, alienating a significant portion of its stupid casual audience is a bad move. You can't say the gyro ruins the experience overall but you can't defend it as a good choice even worse.
It's been a longtime dream of mine to earn a lot of money and call up platinum and ask Kamiya to get the God hand team together to make a sequel. I would make sure to get Mikami to direct it as well.
Probs give them 10 million and a long schedule with sales incentive as well. I wouldnt even care if the game only sold one copy.
>>340751467
Yeah people have a really low tolerance for anything but the most generic control schemes nowadays. It's especially bad because God Hand's tank controls and limited camera go a long way to making it feel like an old school beat em up, which would be lost if it was given a more generic scheme even if they found a good way to remap the 4 different dodges to something else.

Beat up CIA agents, Watergate level, nixon going Wolfenstein tier occult looking for east asian mysticism shit. Shit would be fun.
God Hand is amazing. Among the pinnacle of action games, along with Ninja Gaiden Black and Bayonetta 1
>>340753234
10 weight types with 10 classes is pretty hefty stuff to consider in advanced gameplay.
Admittedly their movesets can get stale but when the very first basic enemy in the game has a total of about 11 that's not really a problem.

That's more like a normal run of the mill scoring system. It's not awesome, it's just normal.
But I agree, it is a very one of a kind game that does what it tries for excellently.
>>340755889
How so? It changes up enemy AI and attributes significantly. Level die especially feels like an entirely different game because enemies cannot be knocked down easily so you have to rely on your mastery over enemy movesets and countering to get any kind of good crowd control going. What other games have that kind of rank system besides some shoot em ups?

My mistake.
>>340747498
Cave story isn't even good, let alone the best game of all time. I'd struggle to even call it mediocre.
At least all the other games listed in this thread (God hand, ttyd, dmc4 etc) are actually good games.

>>340749112

What? I've been hearing how great this game is from every game g forum and top 10 under appreciated games list for years. Pretty much the only person I've ever seen say anything bad about it was the guy who wrote the ign review.
I remember way back in 2006 before I'd even been on 4chan I wanted this game badly but I only had a GameCube and had to stick with viewtiful joe.

>>340755801
Indeed. This thread was win.
MikeKob has several video on youtube that show you how to push the combat system to its limits as well as Kick Me Sign hard mode runs and such. Would recommend for beginners and veterans of the game alike.
I usually play through the game once a year. Works 1:1 on emulator as well, looks great when the internal resolution is increased and becomes super sharp.
Unfortunately the game and animations are coded at 30fps, so there's nothing you can do to increase the frame rate without speeding up the whole game.
>>340744896
I don't know about best game ever, but it is easily in my top 3 favorites. More games need to copy it's difficulty system, every time I play it remains challenging
>>340744896
does this game actually exist or is this just like the grifter meme? I always see people talk about it, but I never see any screenshots or webms to go along with it.
also telling is no one ever says what system its on.
Game is great, and i understand WHY they did the tank camera stuff (to have a dedicated multidirectional dodge stick), but it still not really good.
I think there must be a better control i just cant think which...

>>340746345
that's just it. IT'S NOT PERFECT.
Think about it the graphics are ass, the enemy variety is slim, the voice acting is corny, the story only exists to move the plot and engage in more fights HOWEVER gameplay is fucking amazing for the genre. What other beat em up/hack and slash actively gets harder the better you do? For a game as easy to fuck up as a 3D third person brawler it what it does well really fucking well.
Also the OST is great too.

I don't think so.
My expectations were high, but the game did not live up to them. Instead it was one of the worst games I ever played.
Yeah, at the begin it is funny: nice music, characters. enemies and humor and the fights are spectacular.
But after an hour of gameplay man can remark all the flaws: technically is awful, the controls are clunky, the fights become harder but at the same time repetitive, the enemies become damage sponges.
The worse thing is the praised combo system: okay, you have endless combinations, but it consists in opening the menu, selecting the attacks and then pressing square until death. Moreover, many attacks are useless or a more powerful version of another attack.
I give it 5/10, some quality but the gameplay is shitty. Pic related is a better action.

i's not perfect, levels are ugly and empty, textures are low quality, low enemy variety and eventually you just get bored of beating up dudes.
But corny voice acting and shitty shoehorned story were definetly a plus. The game was aiming for shitty cliched story and characters with shit voice acting and it pulled it off in a fantastic way by being self aware.
>>340760209
I actually love how corny the VA and story are. It's like self aware that's it's just a video game. Why take it so seriously?
>>340767828
>corny voice acting
Just shut up.
>>340767828
Enemy variety is fine and gameplay is flawless, only a few bosses feel bullet-spongy. Enemies need generous health so you can't cheese the game too easily, I'd take fair dificulty over "satisfying" quick deaths any day.
The self awareness isn't impressive. It's shocking how a couple of lame meta jokes impresses people

GodHand is a very nice example of "/v/ likes it, it must be good" mentality at work.
Lot of people long time ago spamming a game to trick retards into playing shitty game whenever they asked for a recommendation (something like Boku no Pico of vidya) made a lot of gullible fags believe it's actually good and defend it.

whats wrong with the controls? everything about the game's controls functions to service the gameplay. The tank controls are absolutely necessary and make perfect sense after playing for 5 minutes

Pretty much this. It's a good game, but it's painfully clear that this is the 1st or 2nd beat em up that some of these kids have ever played. It's so sad to see a lack of individuality in these threads. I'm just glad we don't have that many 3x3 threads.
I'd get tired of seeing Deus Ex, God Hand, SS2, and other safe /v/ approved games, repeated ad nauseam, and a bunch of reaction images and non-arguments whenever someone tries to criticize those games, because you know they don't know anything about what makes a game good or not.
>>340770636
This so fucking much
Godhand's fanbase is seriously worse than undertale's at this point. any qualms with the game are just chalked up to me being bad, even though i'm a seasoned beat em up veteran that only tried the game after /v/ sucked it off endlessly years and years back. it's alright, and that's all it'll ever be. godhandfags are so fucking cancerous

Are you retarded?

Well here is your chance to provide actual complaints and lets hear your better idea of a beat em up

God Hand fans, everyone.

>lack of individuality
This is the most pathetic thing I have read on 4chan in a while.
Don't define yourself over the media you consume.
I fucking hate the idea that you want to see special snowflake 3x3. You hipster faggot.
That is beyond pathetic. I feel like I could make a decent case for dignitas to put you down.

t. Triggered /v/ drone
>>340772808
Wow, I guess I was right on the mark. How does it feel to guzzle /v/'s semen, indiscriminately? It's alright. Maybe you'll develop actual taste when you start searching for vidya, on your own.
>>340773163
I am more disgusted than triggered.
>>340773181
You have 0 taste. Your taste is whatever other people like is bad.
Again your argument is that you are such a special snowflake for not liking something other people like.
Give me one argument on why God Hand is bad and why I shouldn't like it other than "people on /v/ like it"

YOU'RE NOT ALEXANDER!
>>340745406
You don't really trust IGN right?
Game has maybe the most realistic boob jiggle I've ever seen.
In additon to all the other reasons it's great

How's your wool knitted cap, small coffee shop no one knows of, your collection of indie movies, and all those indie bands no one's heard of? Faggot hipster
