>quite possibly the worst final boss of the past 5 years (introduces new enemy mechanics last minute with no explanation which are confusing because you can't tell what's a post processing effect or part of the attack. All you really know is "RUN AWAY FROM THE RED" except then the camera auto-locks on the attack and makes you run towards it and instantly kills you. Then youre greeted with a cutscene which has a long load time if you skip it. Its an insanely easy fight which is made frustrating by bad design and I had to redo it 5 times.)
WHAT WENT RIGHT??
How come this game isn't getting shitposted to death with how bad it is?
But theres a million threads about "disappointments" like DaS3 which no one has even played yet?
>>333559560
I don't know as I'm not an Xbone owner, but sounds to me like you just want to shit on something else since others shat on something you like. Don't do that. Don't add to this problem.
Why do you play games? Why do you think its important? What got you started?

I really hate faggots trying to give videogames a lifestyle status, trying to find the meaning of life through them.
they're fun. That's it.
It's probably just a habit by now. They give me a reason to not kill myself, and I don't remember.
What went wrong?
The enthusiasts who bought the game and played it immediately have now finished the game and moved on to something else.

It's not on ps4

Transformation Update!
>Good day loyal backers! It’s been a while since our last update. The reason is WORK! It’s been a madhouse over here as we move ahead at a feverish pace towards our Pre-Alpha goal. We’ve enlisted help from several of our go-to partners from all over the globe to help get the job done. Half-Genie Hero is in production 24 hours a day - literally ‘round the clock! It’s awesome and exhausting at the same time.
You might be asking, “is this normal?” Yes! This is often what the end of a major development effort looks like, and we’re no strangers to it. The major risks have been conquered, the fun is firmly in place, and all that remains is to bring each piece of the game to its final version, which takes nothing less than a TON of muscle.
Where that puts us today: We should be content complete in about 2 months, with another month of testing after that. Also expect 3 weeks in there for translations and ratings too, which can only happen once we’re done making content. These things can overlap, but it doesn’t always work out that way which is why we can’t give a firm release date (yet). Our best guess is that we’ll be submitting to 1st parties (Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and Valve) in July. We know that it’s been difficult to wait for so long, but ask that you endure with us to the end!
Mythological Transformations!
And now, more details about the game! Half-Genie Hero will feature 5 main “Animal Transformations”, and 3 additional “Mythological Forms”, bringing the grand total up to 8 (Okay, 9 if you backed the Tinkerbat Form Reward Tier, which will be delivered via download code). The first of these mythological forms is the Spider Form! As a spider, Shantae can crawl on ceilings and shoot venom. And unlike the classic Game Boy version, she can also fire webs and climb them. Here are some of her animations for you to enjoy! As for the other transformations, we’d like to keep a few surprises for later. We want you to have something left to discover in the final game and not spoil everything in these updates!
Screen Shots!
Our “scary themed” areas are coming along beautifully, as you can see here. And, we’ve got some additional samples of the destruction Risky Boots is delivering on to the kindly people of Scuttle Town. Shantae’s not going to stand for this! We’re currently working on the final area of the game, and the Final Boss. As you’d expect it is EPIC, and nope... it’s not going to appear in a future update (sorry!). Again, our goal is to keep updates as spoiler-free as possible!
PS3 and 360 versions
Backer Surveys are in, and only a handful of backers have selected the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. We’re strongly considering postponing the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game. This would remove two sizable obstacles to launch, which already includes submitting PS4, XB1, Wii U, Steam for Windows PC, and Vita to multiple regions. It’s a ton of work, and if we can put off the 360 and PS3 versions, it will help.
Now, we can’t tell how many Backers would be negatively affected by this, as most of the accounts with 360/PS3 preference have been inactive since the campaign ended. But we know that at least a few of you have updated recently and selected 360/PS3. If you are one of these people, and switching to another platform isn’t an option for you, please contact us at [email protected]. This is an ever-changing industry, and our development spans a transitional time for the home console market.
Thanks! See you next update!
Well /v/? What do you think it'll be?

Leave gamekino to me.
Where you at haters?
That's nice of the brits. I think Miyazaki deserves it. Maybe not for Bloodborne, but certainly for Dark Souls 1.

Ganondorf. Dat detail mang.
There is only one true answer.
Did /v/ know one of the last games ever to be released on the PS2 was also a PS4 and Xbox One launch title? That's 3 whole fucking generations a game has covered in a single release.
DELETE THIS
neat I wonder how far they can push the ps2
>>333556929
This game sold better than bloodborne, lets that sink for a minute.

Are turn based RPGs obsolete?
>decide to play FFVII since I never played it
>can't get over how slow turn based combat is
I grew up playing the old Final Fantasy games on the Super Nintendo and other turn based RPGs, but I can honestly say I've had a lot more fun with ARPGs like Bloodborne and The Division.
Is there any reason to bring turn based RPG combat back other than nostalgia?
>>333555353
No, stop having ADD.
>>333555493
But what does turn based combat honestly add? Very rarely does it amount to anything more than pressing the same button over and over again.
If there's one reason, it's that they're the only RPGs that hit the ground with as few bugs as possible. If devs and testers were competent(and consumers didn't eat every turd with a big brown grin), then no, there would be no reason.
What went so horribly wrong?

Do you get to make and customize your own character in this? If so I'm all over it.

>>333554950
Yeah. It has pretty fun combat too it just MAKES NO DAMN SENSE

Anyone playing this? Thoughts?
Nothing can make feel like I didn't waste my $30 and reinstall this piece of shit.
Nobody a asked for this. People want perks and maps.
devs wasting time on shit no one wants
especially on that stupid crafting bullshit ripped from tf2
