Looks like a game that started off simple and was forced to go in 5 different directions, because of publisher meddling.
looks amazing
Looks fun, I think they chose the wrong part of the game to show off but I'll probably enjoy the game
>>341134184
Really didnt like what i saw desu
>>341134392
How so?
Looks garbage
>>341134184
Looks like complete shit
why is that guy wearing headphones and holding a plastic sword
The game gets worse the more they show.
>>341134462
T b h filters to desu, huh. Since when?
I would've skipped it but since it's coming to PC now too, I might end up buying it. As long as it's on Steam.
>>341134184
Looked terrible for a Platinum game.
>Xbox one exclusive
The gameplay shown at this E3 looked... mediocre in all honestly.
>>341134184
I thought it was going to be some cool single player game with based platinum combat and maybe some cool and expansive lore
But what they showed off recently is the opposite of all that and looks truly awful in every way
It will probably be good, but I think for what they wanted to show people, they chose the wrong part of the game.
The demo looked very mediocre
I feel the game could be good, but holy shit that demo. XV and Scalebound showed you don't battle giant bosses in games focused on melee combat.
>that bow everything
I was actually laughing
Pretty fucking happy it is coming to PC.
>>341134512
Shooting arrows, flying on dragons that shoot fireballs, morphing into dragon armor to use melee weapons, set piece giant monster fights, multiple music styles, both fantasy and sci-fi at the same time. Somehow multiplayer but not quite sure?
>>341134184
looked like shit but it might be this >>341134435
better be able to fight giant waifus
>>341134694
howfuckingnew.ru
>>341134184
is it like Earthbound but with dragons instead of earth?
The more footage i see of it the less im hyped for it
>>341134706
It's on PC as well
It looks lame
Slow as fuck, no new interesting mechanics or anything, 5 minutes shooting with a weak bow with barely any reaction, awkward quips from the main character. Fast paced music hilariously clashes with the slow paced gameplay. Also I guess it's an RPG?
I hope it was just a shitty presentation and there's more to it than that
>>341134694
Probably a year already
Looks fucking awful.
The music was also shit.
>>341134184
A really weak looking Platinum game, tried to be DMC + MH but didn't even do basic shit that DMC 1 did 15 years ago, like making shooting something be satisfying as fuck.
Always leaves me wanting to see more honestly. Just a meaty 30 minute non scripted playthrough.
It looks good so far though, I like the dragon customization and what looks like weapon variety, but the bow needs some work
>>341134184
It looked extremely slow and clunky
>>341134923
Might all be intentional on Kamiya's part though, same guy who started the cuhrayzee genre
kill the fps the game
>you have have all these powers
>and the weakest bow in the land
Also if all bosses are going to be mmo tier, pls stop
>>341134184
Meh is what I think. Was hyped, it's a Kamiya game after all, but after seeing the gameplay where you had to dodge twice in 5 minutes and it all looks pretty tame I'm losing hype rapidly.
Take MonHun, take DD, make it look weak and dull as possible and you have Scalebound
>>341134184
Honestly, for a Hideki Kamiya game, it doesn't look like a Hideki Kamiya games.
>>341135212
Obviously, he also did RE2 and Okami, he doesn't only make fast paced action games like DMC and Bayonetta
Honestly looks like a 12 year old was put in charge of development
>and the guy is like super cool
>he wears headphones and listens to like awesome music that's like WUB WUB WUB
>and he has um, he has a dragon! He can call the dragon and ride it and stuff
>and he says cool catchphrases and stuff, like dante but way cooler, like he has a dragon arm and can transform into a dragon dude!
>>341134695
Why does it have to be on Steam? I sure as fuck don't want every single game to appear on the same storefront.
>>341135462
Yeah I know, he's just a guy with a lot of ideas
The dragon's expressions are really cute, everything else is a 4/10.
>>341135474
Are you so retarded you don't see the Nero similarities?
I noticed it day one but here we are two years later since the reveal and people are still saying OMG DONTE XDD FUK UUUUUUUUUUU
DmC ruined this place
How to take the concept of Dragon's Dogma combat and fuck it up.

You dumb or something m8?
Looks like garbage. Same with Recore.
>>341134695
>AS LONG AS ITS ON MY JEW CLIENT NOT YOURS LOL
kys
>>341135912
sorry
the gameplay looked really unsatisfying
>>341134184
Eh, didn't really manage to grab me.
Is it just me or does /v/ = /sony/ now? I thought it was /nintendo/, but that changed really quick
>>341134184
Looks good. Hope it turns out okay.
>>341135474
you ever played anything by kamiya before?
It will be great. Kamiya is a genius
I was really looking forward to this and Recore.
What the fuck happened.
>>341136153
>i don't really like game
>HHURRRR FUCKINGGGG SONG FAGGSSS
Combat looked slow and boring
Giant boss was easy to beat
Protag couldn't keep his mouth shut for more than 10 seconds
I really hope Platinum aren't losing their mojo but Turtles was terrible and Scalebound isn't looking much better either
>>341136153
>not liking shitbox makes you a sonypony
Wow and I thought the idorts and sonygger were the dumbest. Guess I was wrong.
>>341136153
Several polls have revealed that Sony is the vocal minority here with a majority being PC.
>>341135564
What if every game was on every storefront? I like buying things on steam because steam has nice integration for multiplayer and chat, and my circle of friends all use it for most communication.
>>341136283
There's always been at least some restraint on the level of pure manchild autism. Okami is nowhere near this level of teenage edge. The older he gets, the worse the games he makes looks. This nigger's like Benjamin Button
The only thing I was impressed by was how huge the boss was
The combat looks really unsatisfying, particularly with the bow, and the main character was annoying during the whole demonstration, although I guess that's just the norm for most game announcements now.
>>341134184
>A game where you can use a fucking DRAGON
>You play as Donte 2 and use a pathetic bow and magic semen to somehow kill massive monsters
Platinum really knows how to make an exciting game.
Kamiya looked unenthusiastic
It makes me really worried for Nier Automata, if this is what they did for Microsoft.
Combat looks a bit simplistic, but it's not trying to be Devil May Cry so I can't complain.
I really don't give a shit about the co-op stuff.
>>341136386
this, also I expected to see more types of weapons and different start to defeat a boss
>>341134184
Who the fuck cares, its shit.
Looks almost exaclty like ffxv
>>341136670
Slowly, MMO style as well.
Feels very design-by-committee.
I have a feeling that any games they make with Microsoft in the future, if any, will be similarly tepid.
The gameplay they showed last year was kinda alright, not sure about this one tho.
>>341136774
He gets nervous
>>341136153
Sonyfags are the vocal minority here. And they antagonize every other fanbase, so it shows.
>>341134184
>straight white male protagonist
Fucking racist, sexist, homophobic piece of shit. Gonna blog about this right fucking now!!!
>fast paced music starts playing
>slowly aim a bow and shoot weak arrows that the boss casually shrugs off
wut
It doesn't look like a Platinum game, it looks like something Ubisoft would pump out.
Which makes me think Microsoft probably meddled in the development somehow. Or Kamiya is trying to make this appeal to Westerners too much.
>>341137014
That game looked like a pile of garbage too.
Hopes = Crushed.
The combat looks very unsatisfying. Bow looks wimpy as shit (seriously this is one of the worst parts of that gameplay demo), melee combat also has no impact. Not impressed with the dragon either.
>>341136526
>What if every game was on every storefront?
Why bring up something that never happens 99% of the time?
Don't get me wrong, I like Steam's interface. But it won't stop me from supporting other stores if their games are good.
>>341134184
Since they decided to kill the gameplay, pass.
>>341137209
Kamiya has show his displeasure about Microsoft, so I'm assuming that's the case.
>>341134184
Looked boring. Flaccid attacks, both shooting and melee, no sense of direction in the fight other than just aimlessly whaling at the enemy. Set-piecey elements that seem like they come from a single-player design mentality but don't translate to co-op where there are several players floating around at all times.
The more I see about this and the more they try to push this as THE BIG EXCLUSIVE, the more I pity everyone involved because it's looking anything but.
>>341134184
The recent trailer won me over and they seemed to fix the framerate.
If we see good gameplay from Horizon at the Sony conference, then this game is pretty much DOA
>>341137209
>>341137514
Kamiya said this was his dream game though since he was a kid
Kamiya doing new things is always a good thing.
He shouldn't just be the stylish action guy.
>>341134184
looks really boring and easy.
believe it or not, this opinion is not influenced by my console of choice.
>>341137709
Horizon is a cinematic experience. There won't be much gameplay

>vocal minority
>PS4 is the most successful console ever
it looked really unfinished
I hope MS doesn't force the game out too early before platinum can shine it up
>>341137937
Underrated pic, made me laugh.
>>341134184
The combat looks so shallow which is really disappointing.
>>341134184
"Boring"
>>341137937
The difficulty was the main thing that worries me, but I imagine the demo was easy plus it's co-op.
>>341137767
He also said it would have the biggest bosses Platinum has ever made when Bayonetta 1 and W101 final bosses were already a fuckton bigger.
>>341134184
>You can call me Donte the Dragonslayer! Has a nice ring to it don'tcha think?!
>>341134184
I'm hopeful but honestly that showcase looked really, really shallow, didn't capture me at all.
It looks like absolute shit, just pure trash with combat animations that actually look like fucking western action games. I honestly wouldn't have believed it if someone told me Platinum, and more specifically Kamiya, worked on it.
I'll definitely try it, see if it plays better than it looks, but jesus christ does it look awful.
>Subpar bow shooting for 10 mins: the game
S-sweet.
A little worried, still hopeful. Happy that I don't need to buy a bone
>>341136487
polls where you can lie?
>>341135474
I actually like dumb shit like that generally. It's just that the gameplay looks shit.
>>341138154
Maybe this was an early boss? Seemed like it since he still had the wooden shield
I don't see any boss in the game beating jerghinga in size though
>>341135474
Kamiya is chunni as fuck
>>341138664
I believe he said that was the biggest boss Platinum has ever made.
>>341138405
Honestly if this weren't made by Platinum, and even moreso Kamiya, this board would be panning the FUCK out of this game.
Then again, this was the same reaction for TW101 when it was showcased on E3 and now that game is pretty much universally loved here, so who knows.
>>341138953
Yeah, W101 is the main reason I'm even going to try this one despite looking shit.
>>341138939
I thought he said Scalebound will have the biggest bosses P* has made, but not specifically referring to the one in the demo, just as a "yeah this one is big but there are much bigger ones"
>>341137767
>>341138154
It's almost like some corporate group gave him a script to go off of full of lies to try and hype up their shitty game.
Seriously, Scalebound looks super disappointing. The only thing I'm kinda interested in it at this point is the relationship between the MC and "Big Guy".
But even with that, Titanfall 2's Mechabro looks like a more interesting character to explore.
It's a damn shame too. A dragon riding game where you really connect with the dragon should be way more fast paced and cool than this.
>>341134184
Surprisingly uninterested in this.
The combat reminded me of Okami. Cause it looked boring
>>341134184
it looks like a lesser version of dragon's dogma but more animu
>>341138953
W101 had that neat direct though. Scalebound needs a good, unadaltured or scripted one hour demo to really help people make up their minds
>>341138612I remember posting that
>>341134184
meh. guy wouldnt shut up
>>341139405
That's fair but you need to fuck off if you think Okami is about the combat
I got more excited for the 4th edition of fucking Dead Rising than a brand new platinum game.
That's bad.
>>341134184
those headphones are killing me
>>341134184
URBAN FANTASY was too cringe for me when I was ten years old.
>>341139183
No, he was referring specifically to what was shown today.
"Today, I'm here to show you the biggest boss fight Platinum games has ever made..."
>>341139760
Maybe Scalebound is more about bonding with your dragon and not about the combat but that's what MS wants to show off because feeding him and suiting him in different armor isn't as exciting to market since its platinum and what good are they if you don't show action?
I dunno, I'm not getting a typical platinum vibe from this game, and not in a bad way, just Kamiya doing something new.
did i missed something from the M$ conference?
Heard the Xbone is completely useless now since PC has the exclusives too
>>341134184
It honestly looks like shit. I wanted it to be good. I love the concept. But the gameplay looks like clunky fucking trash.
Look at what they showed at E3. A 4 player co op fight. Literally everyone except the POV player stays on their dragon shooting at the monster for the entire time. If you look carefully you can see they don't even move around. They're just hovering and shooting at the big fat monster that is pretty much totally immobile. The POV character does the same thing at the start, then gets off to ineffectually shoot arrows at it. You can watch the damage numbers and see that he's doing a fraction of the damage that the 3 other guys hovering in place and holding down a single button are doing.
The monster poses little to no threat and after they hold down some buttons at it for a while they kill it in a cutscene/quick time event.
This was the best they had to offer. This was the footage they chose to try and convince people that they should buy this game.
>>341140263
It's not useless if you don't want to install W10
>>341134184
>p*
>>341140263
Microsoft revealed the XBone slim and revealed their next console is coming next year's holiday season. And yeah, everything that was shown is also available on W10.
>>341140204
I swear to god if this is Microsoft Wants A The Last Guardian Killer: The Game, I am going to fly to Osaka, take a taxi to Hideki Kamiya's house, ring the doorbell, and smash his fucking head in with a bucket.
>>341140757
TLG killed itself
The co-op footage looked underwhelming as hell, it still needs a good amount of polish.
Reminds me of Lost Planet.
>>341134184
Im sick of games that are just set pieces. I'm sick of all this realistic graphics cinematic shit. Even platinum is making this shit now. Gameplay is dead!
>>341134184
Looks pretty meh. The voice of the character is unbearable.
>>341134184
Looked mediocre. The MC's banter was fucking obnoxious. I really hate this protagonist.
Looked awful. And FFXV too.
I guess Japan doesn't always make games better than the West.
>draws the bow out
>does absolutely no damage
>>341139605
no way is this THE anon that posted in that image?! can i get an autograph my dude?
>>341140650
>new console next year
damn, how old is the xbone 3 years? and they already jumping off the ship, literally what's the point of the upgraded xbone.
>>341134184
I get that it's a big enemy so it needs to be slowed down a bit so that the player has a chance, but that thing was just fucking around the whole time. It'd take 20 second breaks before doing a single action to prevent it's own demise.
>>341141861
no prob
>>341134184
Where's the gameplay?
>>341142217
im gonna make a killing off this on ebay thanks family
>>341141372
>titan fight waiting for them to run up the arm and beat the shit out of his face
>never happens
>instead we see him awkwardly get lightly damaged something that would kill you many times over in any other game
I really didn't know just how bad FFXV was until today. It really is just 15 years of polish and nothing else
It looks fucking awful. It's like a mix of Donte May Cry and Drakengard with none of the quality aspects of either of them.
>>341134184
you cant play as the dragon 0/10
That "biggest boss fight platinum ever made" looked harmless like a kitten, and yet a massive bullet sponge.
>>341134184
>Scalebound
The name of the title is already awful
>>341134184
>very unlikable protag
>shit combat

bravo, platinum disappoints yet again
I ahted how MGR looked before release and now I loved it
Might be cool, but won't buy at release until I hear opinions from actual players
>>341142247
youtube, it's like what >>341142595 said.
i think they're aiming for a coop game like MH, but it's looking underwhelming as fuck
>>341134184
It looks really fun, actually.
>>341142217
ME TOO, ME TOO!
I believe in Kamiya.
>>341139601
This. It's a big deal when it comes to action RPGs like this.
>>341142997
It looks like it wants to be a bunch of things without committing to any of them. It clearly wants to be DMC except it lacks the in-depth combo system and fast paced action, wants to be MH with co-op hunting monsters except it lacks the positioning and stamina management required in that game.
It's a typical Platinum game.
Fucking dreadful but it's /v/'s favourite meme developer so you will all defend it like the rabid fanboy faggots you are.
>slow, boring combat
>shitty looking camera
>shitty visuals
>shitty MC
BUT MUH BALD NIP DEVELOPER CAN'T DO NO WRONG!!!
Microsoft bet on the wrong horse I'm the Platinum department, Nier2 looks infinitely better.

This is literally Monster Hunter x Metal Gear Rising, right?
>>341140160
>posts weeb picture
But no it's Urban Fantasy that's cringe.
>>341134184
combat looks like shit and isn't cuhrazee
Dragon looks worse than Lair
the boss was awful
but I'll give it something, it shits all over the garbage display FFXV had.
>>341139760
Unfortunately, combat is a mandatory to progress the long story, so unfortunately Okami is about the combat.
Platinum does How to train your dragon
>>341144339
No, because both of those games are great
>>341134184
I don't like it because it's not on the console my mom bought for me.
>>341136116
ikr it was slow as fuck and the sword attack is a plain and slow "pam pam pam" and repeat
>>341135474
Some midgeted beta asian balding manlet is in charge, what do you expect?
>>341136153
Because everyone on /v/ finally bought a PS4.
Only a vocal minority of holdouts left now.
>>341136153
If it isnt a Sony exclusive, its shit
Period.
>>341148228
its true, the other console makers cannot hold a candle to the quality and exclusives Sony gets
As they say and its true
Sony always wins baby!
>>341134694
since halloween
It looks really cool! I don't much care for the bow and arrow thing but I like the main character, find the game to be visually gorgeous (and somewhat reminds me of Lost Planet), and the music to be gr8! I'll definitely be getting this when it comes out. I would've liked to have seen some melee combat though.
gonna be hyped to play with my bros on PC, cause me and all my friends have upgraded to W10
>>341135912
>ANYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH ME IS BAD REEEEE
You fucking child
>>341134184
Looks awful. The guy playing the exhibition of the game playing like shit didn't help either
>>341148054
>everyone on /v/ finally bought a PS4.
>>341134184
absolutely cringyworthy, trying to appeal to ages of 12-15.
>>341136153
Yep.
>>341134184
What they showed looked boring
It looked slow and somewhat clunky. Why would you show off a portion of gameplay that involves a whole lot shooting a bow and arrow at a giant monster that doesnt involve much more than standing still and firing arrows? that doesn't scream Platinum or Kamiya to me
I'm hoping that it was just a poor choice of a demo, cause I have been looking forward to it
Looks pretty generic honestly, I'm still not sold. Platinum has seriously been slipping in quality so I can't really have faith in them at the moment
>>341149581
>Only a vocal minority of holdouts left now.
Like I said.
>>341149216
>having friends that pay attention to video games that arent' hyped beyond all recognition
Sadly even if I get it and show it to my friends they'll all just keep playing League of Legends and Overwatch. How do you find cool people?
>>341151565
i've known them since high school, we just kept in touch and play games after all these years.
they hate mobas
So just catching up on the Microsoft conference. Why the fuck do they keep cutting off gameplay to show the crowd and presenter? That shit really took me out of it. The games were cool but that shit made the conference weak.
platinum's dragon's dogma
>>341134706
If it was a Sony exclusive Sony ponies would be singing it's praises. Console wars are always hilarious tbqh
>>341134184
CringeBound
I always thought supernatural humanoid limbs are tacky, like skulls and flames. The protagonist warns you about the tail, tells you the shell is removed and attack the pink core, and to make sure you know what to do, reminds you to keep attacking the heart. When the protagonist leaps on the crab limb it seemed a bit scripted similar to the climbing in uncharted. Dragons dont seem very fun to ride either they seem a little slow. First time seeing this game and it left me with a bad impression.
>>341146894
>Monster Hunter
>great
The footage they showed made it look like fucking shit. It looked just like the FFXV footage too, which didnt help.
I'm a fucking Kamiya fanboy, but that showed us nothing. Is the whole game strictly boss battles? Does it not have an overworld? What the fuck even is it?
>>341149442
> it's shit!
Argument of a child.
