Protip: if you like RoR, this is a similarly great game; and it's free to try right now.
>>
It's garbage and completely unbalanced. There is literally no reason to play anyone except Kid Red.

The devs keep trying to sell it as some "esport" game, but it's shallow as fuck.
>>
Wolf best waifu

Also I don't really understand how you can make a MOBA with like 6 characters and call it a game

>>320430201
>if you like RoR
You're not talking about Risk of Rain, are you?
>>
>>320431036
Yuuup.

Similarly minimalist gameplay, but more arena based.
>>
Is that what this game looks like?

I took it as some shitty RWBY looking third person game when I downloaded it on PSN months ago, spent 20 minutes in matchmaking queue, and deleted it.
>>
>>320430884
It's no "MOBA" in the traditional idea. There are no lanes, etc.
>>
>>320431231
Ah. Well, you're wrong.
>>
>>320431336
I know, the number of characters isn't the only lacking feature
>>
>>320430884
Wolf is garbo, melee is terrible in this game, escpecially hers, and the aiming after rolling allows for people you were trying to run away from to catch up.

It's stupid.
>>
is good.
>>
>>320431542
Except it's not featured as a MOBA at all.

Worthless how? You're wrong about this game being like RoR. Anyone who's played a few minutes of both games could tell you that, there's no need to even discuss it. Hell, they could probably get that just from looking at a picture of each game. What's worthless is you talking about other people's comments being worthless.

Fuck off with your shitty dead indie game. Nobody gives a fuck.

Nigga, you shoot arrows first, then when they start running for their lives you chase them in wolf form, pounce at them and execute them with the knife

The arrows did shit damage, and fire slow. By the time you land a second arrow they're rolling around you for another 12 shots from the OP pistols.

>>320432681
It was literally at EVO. So yes, the developers think its a fighting game.

they truly believe it
>>
>>320432132
It was implied. You said it was a similarly great game. Why compare it to RoR if they're not actually similar? Would you recommend a driving sim to a fan of Deus Ex or SS2 because it's held in the same regard in its genre? You even went on to say the gameplay is "similarly minimalist", with the only apparent difference being that Secret Ponchos is "more arena based". Do you not understand how that sounds like you're saying "it's like RoR"? Because that is essentially what you said.

>What a strawman argument.
Do you even know what this means?

>>Secret Ponchos: Most Wanted Edition is an unforgiving new style of fighting game.
It's literally an argument about semantics now. How else should they describe it except "fighting"? That keyword so happens to pick up search engine traffic, and of a demographic they'd like playing their game.

>>320433257
Not sure if you've realized, but "similarly great" is no feature comparison. What comes up for interest in a game is basic gameplay intensity to that of a game already enjoyed, per se.

No. It's semantics because there's really no definition of a fighting game.. and especially not a MOBA.

Then stone arrow them to stun
or maybe you should increase her firerate damn nigga.
And you can still role normally, but it's her special roll that is the one where you get to aim right after.

>>320435372
You only have yourself to blame for being so fucking stupid and wrong. At least people are posting and getting your game some attention, there are plenty of games that just get completely ignored here.

Hello

Phantom Phonco is the best and is the only one with a poncho


Killer is also good
>>
>>320435372
>Oh, so you're one of the guys who just picks red and spams his dynamite.

I don't spam the dynamite, I use the pistols and their fast reloading and his roll to just go around everyone since literally nobody can catch up or even has a chance to.

>>320435696
>still has a garbage melee that makes you incredibly vulnerable and is completely useless in an actual melee situation because of the charge-up

These characters are not well designed or balanced.

Kid Red is squishy as fuck nigger, Gordo or Deserter can outrange him and stun him easily.

The genre thing was retarded because the developers literally call it a fighting game.

More like comparing 2 games that have barely anything in common. It's like saying Fire Emblem is similar to Soul Calibur because both games are about people fighting with medieval weapons.
>>
>>320436232
>Gordo throws molotov so you either run straight through or find another route
>deserter snipes you causing your ass to fall on the ground

Fucking hell how much have you even played, Kid can be countered like any other outlaw.
>>
>>320436310
Just play it for free more and then wait for winter sale. It'll go on sale again during that and then you can decide if you really liked it.
>>
Glass cannon Poncho is fun as fuck.
>>
>>320436418
>roll away
>you're fucking fine

Anon please, theres a reason he's the main star of the game and literally everyone plays him.
>>
>>320436545
What game are you fucking playing? No one has been playing Kid past outlaw, the majority of players have been Killer or Phantom. I play Gunman usually and Kid get's absolutely destroyed after I mark him.
>>
>>320436769
How do you even play Gunman? You have no tricks up your sleeve. You can just roll, shoot and repeat.
>>
>>320436769
I'm friends with like 3 of the top players and guess who they all play.

I'll give you a hint, he's OP as shit and rolls around with dual pistols.
>>
>>320435546
It's kinda similar to Power Stone but with guns, so I guess you could stretch far enough to count it as a fighter.

>>320435078
>isometric twin stick shooter
Sounds good, maybe throw "arena" in there.
>>
>>320435372
Shoulda said in the OP that there's a free week going on.
>>
>>320437014
>roll around at the speed of sound
>utilize cover
>mark enemy
>pop pop pop
>run away
Gunman solo isn't too good because you really have to utilize marking to get decent damage, but he's great on 3v3 because if you mark someone they take huge amounts of damage from everything.

>>320437068
have you not been following anything or are you just going to keep saying that despite all of the counters I've listed while plenty more exist.
>>
>>320430769
I haven't come across a decent Kid Red then, always shit on them as Poncho.

I've seen the trapper consistently fucking shit up though.
>>
>>320437343
>all the counters I listed
>listed Z E R O counters

there isn't a counter, because Kid Redd is just faster than everyone else and has a longer roll + can roll more often. While still laying down a good DPS with his pistols.
>>
So much for any Deserter brothers in this thread.

Kid is fast and can be powerful but he's a glass cannon and you'll get fucked up quite easily
