I'm honestly struggling. Structuring the campaign around ease of replay and score allowed the game to avoid the pitfalls of virtually every other cover shooter. You can't sit behind a wall and wait for an enemy to pop out without being penalized, and the tactic flat out doesn't work on Hard.

We need more developers who aren't afraid to impose a playstyle on the audience.

Mechanically, it is above average, the level design is below average, the enemy design is above average, the characters are average to above average, and the plot is complete garbage. However, the controls are the best of any game in the genre, and that makes a big fucking difference. The game was a blast to play, and I really wish we could have gotten a Vanquish 2. I feel it would have been a big improvement over the first. RIP Mikami, I hope you enjoy your retirement.

They're STILL survival horror games. You can't move normally in them and they emphasize health conservation and tank aiming. They still fall under the umbrella of survival horror.

Now resi 6 on the other hand IS an action game. There you're doing backflips, sliding, somersaulting, and a whole sweep of crazy shit that emphasizes speed and just action.

The entire point of the game and in terms of the story was that you wore asuper suit, yet never felt like it.

Nothing to do with skill, because the game wasn't even difficult. The more you used the "super" functions the more it will overheat (in other words, constantly) which got annoying real fast which means you used these "super" functions less.

Punishing you for using the more fun stuff in a game is one of the dumbest things you can do in terms of game design.
It's like in BoF5 where you punished you for turning into a "dragon".

And you got a terrible score as a result. Or didn't progress at all if you were on Hard (which it sounds like you should have been, since it was allegedly too easy on Normal).

The game wasn't punishing you, it was forcing you to balance. You simply played on the wrong difficulty or disregarded an entire aspect of the design.
>>
I disliked Vanquish. There was a distinct lack of guns and gun variety, and the three gun system was super limiting. I hated picking up some kickass gun like that EMP cannon that juggled large mechs or the homing laser thing because they were fire-it-and-forget-it weapons with ammo that was impossible to find. I also wish that melee wasn't linked to your overheat system, and that enemy variety wasn't just robot, tougher robot, mech, tougher mech, enemy that can one-shot you, and fast enemy.

The game had a lot of potential but I give it a solid 6/10, nothing more nothing less.

Also it had one of the most infuriatingly difficult final bosses ever.
>>
>>339296330
I'm playing RE6 on Professional right now and it's way more nuanced than people give it credit for.

Sure it is an action game, but you actually have to manage your ammo use and health quite carefully. Ammo is limited but so is inventory space, the way the game encourages smart use of resources while at the same time discouraging item hoarding is really quite good. Reminds me a lot of DOOM in some ways.
>>
>>339297081
>The game wasn't punishing you, it was forcing you to balance. You simply played on the wrong difficulty or disregarded an entire aspect of the design.
If you need to fiddle with difficulty settings to make your game enjoyable, your game is shit.

>hurr durr he didn't play the mode where the enemies have more health and the player has less health

All this ever equates to in these shitty third person shooters is hiding in cover for longer so your health can regenerate. Fuck off you stupid casual faggot.

I can't believe neo-/v/ has gotten so bad it's not only defending artificial difficulty, but now saying it's necessary to play games on the highest levels of tedious artificial difficulty before you can critique them.
>>
>>339296780
Not all QTE's are equal. Just like the response to this game, it baffles me how people can't see the difference between timed supplementary actions to keep you on your toes and the "replace boss fight with button mashing" of truly bad games.

>This is how I know you started gaming in the 7th gen.

My first game was Trap Door on C64 Last Ninja 3.on C64. Maybe don't make stupid baseless assumptions when you're this bad at guessing.

Also the point I made was that the game built up that the suit Sam wore was a big deal because it was an experimental super suit, but it never even felt like it.
I felt more super powered in Dead Space and Isaac is supposed to be wearing an Engineer suit.

>And you got a terrible score as a result.

I have never cared about score unless it unlocked bonus features, served as upgrade points (like in DMC) or whatever.

>The game wasn't punishing you, it was forcing you to balance.

When a game only annoys me because of the constant overheat when I dash, use slow-mo or melee (the only even remotely super functions it had) I just use it less because hearing that constant beeping wasn't exactly music to my ears.
No, it was poor game design.
>>
>>339297275
>If you need to fiddle with difficulty settings to make your game enjoyable, your game is shit.
No, it means that the game is actually well balanced and *doesn't* just adds more health to enemies and less health to the player. Another way I can tell you're new is showing.

>All this ever equates to in these shitty third person shooters is hiding in cover for longer so your health can regenerate

And my point was that it doesn't matter what you "feel" like you're doing. It's a video game; aesthetic and "immersion" are non-issues, it's about the mechanics, and how the game requires their utilization in whatever way (on Normal, score, on Hard, survival).

Ignoring score in score-based games and predilections for "immersion" are faults of the audience (usually associated with more modern ones), not the design. You get annoyed because you wanted to feel like a badass instead of learning how to be one.

Yes and the mechanics for the super suit (you know, the only unique aspect of the game) was poorly implemented.

Now Vanquish is probably one of your favorite games and you don't like people "bashing" it, but you will not convince anyone when you're this biased. People will just ignore you, like what I'm doing now.

Lel. The real reason this conversation is going nowhere is because you say meaningless shit like "implemented poorly" instead of actually explaining why that's the case.

Vanquish wasn't even the best Platinum game from the last generation. But you seem to need to make yourself feel better about lacking any well founded argument than actually contributing to a discussion, so maybe it is best we nip this in the bud.

Nothing really. The level design is decent, the enemy design is generally meh with some good boss fights, the weapon design is alright, gameplay overall is repetitive and simplistic and stays the same for all the games without hardly any improvements, art design is pretty at first but it's exactly the same for the entire series and gets boring after 20 minutes and story and characters are retardedly stupid and as generic american war story cliche as it gets. And I'm talking about all three games.

But it looks cool and plays decent. And has all the millions in marketing to make the game seem better than it actually is

If we're talking about standard TPS, Binary Domain is miles better at everything.
