There's no thread and this game is hype.
Free on PS+ so I'm surprised there isn't more buzzlike how the PS4 sounds when running it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=RDxZv2OCbQOmI
>>344215538
Quit with these threads, the game is literal garbage to the eyes
>>344215538
music is good shit and I like the whole boss rush idea, sets it apart from a lot of other games
>mfw on last life against 2nd boss on second last phase
this bitch is fast
>The Scale's final phase on Furier
I think this is where I stop.
>>344215538
does it run okay on PS4? Game looks kind of cool, but I'm certainly not gonna drop $25 on it. Thinking of subscribing to PS+ for a month to play.
>started furier
>can't get past The Chain
Holy shit. I thought I had got gud too
>>344217715
On ps4 it sounds like your console is about to explode
>>344217359
>>344218279
I wonder how The Star's last phase is on Furier
>>344218413
So does every game on PS4. And PS3. And Xbox 360. And Wii U.
How are the frames?
>>344217715
It's good as long as you don't mind your console sounding like a jet taking flight
>>344218451
I'm currently on The Star, I don't want to imagine it
>>344218413
>>344218596
Ah, so it wasn't just me.
Posting it again from another thread earlier but in the Practice Mode screen there's no boss #7 or #11
#7 I can imagine is the The Voice but I'm drawing blanks on a #11
>>344217715
It's a bad game.
Sorry fellas, never trust westerners with japanese game design.
>>344218919
>If I don't like it, it's bad
Why are the the scale and the hand such push-overs? I just beat them both within twenty minutes and got an A on the scale
>>344218690
Mine does it on a lot of games, I'm planning on getting it on Steam asap
>ps+
That's why, you know how these people are
>>344219385
It doesn't do that too often for me. The only other game that does that is Arkham Knight.
>>344219325
I think they fucked up on the boss order personally, The Line is a spike and then it dulls down again until The Song
If they put The Scale and The Hand before The Line it'd make more sense
>>344219514
It only really does it if I idle for a while on a game but for some reason on Furi it does it a whole ton
>>344215538
Ive the newer model ps4 and it runs fine.
Fun game as well, good treatment for the tired gamer syndrome.
>>344219092
>>If I don't like it, it's bad
hurr.. I gave my reason, you ignored it.
I don't know whether I should buy this game and your broken youtube link isn't helping
>>344218563
Fine. I very rarely got a drop.
>>344215538
I want to platinum this beast so bad...bit I'm fucking stuck on the chain on furier. Fuck my life.
Really like the game tough.
Fave boss everyone?
This game is shit, but that saints row game is pretty fun
>>344215538
I like the aesthetic, bullet hell games and boss rushes so this is pretty much going to be my favourite game for a while, it's pretty neat
>>344218825
They aren't bosses. They are chapters. Chapter 7 is the one the Voice "defeats" and chapter 11 is the field you walk in for the credits.
>>344219512
Why all the hate for ps+?
>>344219908The Starfor the climactic end and The Edge for the gameplay
Gat out of Hell is much better than this indie shit, this is a poor man's El Shaddai.
>several hours later you beat the strap on regular difficulty
Jesus. Help with old man once you break his box/column he is on and starts warping and attacking?
>>344219778
Bullets hell/hack n slash game. Only bosses. Really hard, shit graphics, still looks stylish and cool tough.
If you get angry easily on games, let this one pass.
It's like a mix between samurai jack and killer7.
>>344220071
This is El Shaddai with good gameplay.
>>344220147
You gotta parry
>>344220197
>this
>good gameplay
It's literally babbies first acshun game. All the visual cues they give you make it casual as fuck.
>>344215538
Oh jeez, I fucked up the youtube link.
Basically, killer soundtrack
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQ5gtInauiI
>>344219778
It's basically a bullet hell Afro Samurai
>>344220070
For some reason the edge was fucking easy for me. I killed him in less than 5minutes, first try. (I got the trophy for it)
But the sniper lady on the other hand...it took me 2-3 hours easily
>>344220370
then post your gameplay video faggot
>>344217215
Look at this underage fag, probably never played no more heroes.
>>344220370
Most people don't look for bullet hell hybrids as their first action game. I don't even know what you mean by action, that's a pretty broad term.
>>344220539
Yeah he's really easy but the fact he locked you into the dueling phase for all of it, along with the perspective change at the end made it feel a lot more unique and fun
>>344219908
The Edge is just a cool fight
The Burst is a good fight too
The Beat is a jobber and is a waste of time
>>344220618
>>344220604
Why care about the fags? Just keep discussing furi, they will leave eventually
>>344220234
>all those bullets flying as well
Thanks
I suck but this game is enjoyable as a PS+ Title.
>>344220728
From what The Voice said we knew The Beat would job hard but I didn't think she'd juststop fighting altogether
Does anybody else feel like the boss quality dipped hardcore at the last couple bosses? It sorta felt like they ran out of money or something.
The final boss in particular was pretty disappointing, but maybe that's because I enjoyed the swordplay more than the bullet hell parts. I was also expecting a little bit more from the story. They set it up like stuff was gonna be answered at the end and I guess some stuff was answered, but it still left me with a sort of sour taste in my mouth. Felt just a little bit lazy to set up all this intrigue but never really give it a proper payoff.
Overall though, really fun game, maybe a little expensive at 25 dollars but I'd definitely pick it up on a sale.
>>344220882She actually does no damage at the end. I was seeing what would happen if I just left it, but nothing. She does no real damage
Wish The Voice was a boss.
>>344220703
That's true. I loved his stage. I just wanna chill on a pink beach with purple sea
>>344220728
The edge gets lots of love it seems
Least fave boss?
Is this another Dark Souls in that people think the game is hard but they just suck at it? Like I said babbies first acshun game. Don't praise it for a difficulty that doesn't exist, and without that it's artsy indie trash.
>>344221089
THE BEAT/JOBBER
>>344221041
Did you fight the secret end boss? The MC is an alien sent to conquer earth, instead he's captured and set up in an insane prison because everything he touches dies.
>>344221051
Maybe if the game gets a sequel or some form of DLC
>>344221041
I can see they were trying to boil the main parts of the gameplay—bullet hell and sword action— with the Edge and the Star while giving the Beat some platformer variety. All in all, I agree with you on the story's end. It wasn't very satisfying for me and the build-up that you go through by battling everyone doesn't really payoff.
>>344221089
I liked all of the bosses but for some reason something about The Strap really makes me dislike her
>>344221041
Nah I mean, I know all that stuff, it just felt like there was more of a story to tell. A lot of the stuff you can figure out with context clues but I really wanted to know more about the backstory.
Reminder that this game is unfair, hard and hurts your feelingsAlso playing on m+kb is kinda arse due to how dodging and aiming works
>>344221427
>>344221224
accidentally quoted myself
Speedruns when?
>>344219768
>I gave my reason
you literally did not
kys
where is my flac'd OST download?
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
the gameplay is simple and fast, not really polished but still enjoyable
but after 2 bosses on Furi Mode I'm already tired of it
didn't die once and still thought the fights went on far longer than they ever needed to and I just stopped at the third one simply because I was bored
and I have no idea what they were thinking with those 5 minute walks to the bosses, I mean they even put an auto-walk button in it
>game has brand new Lorn songs in it
>>344221170
Poor girl.
>>344221394
Huh. Its one of my faves. She's just really cool. Fast and intense. And.....a bit sexy.
>>344221453
That aricle is pretty sad
>>344221453
Letting trannies and women into the video game press industry was a mistake.
>>344220002
>b-but you don't own them it's a rental
>b-but 72 games a year across 3 systems doesn't matter, it's all indie or AAA shit
>b-but games with gold has better releases and if you show me that ps+ had the same releases already it doesn't count
>b-but the discounts don't count even though with then you've saved more than a year of ps+ costs
Paying for online play is a valid criticism that I wont argue against, but knowing that in 2015 the total value of all games offered through ps+ was more than 1100 dollars takes some of the sting out of it
>>344221674
They needed the walking. Its hard to tell a story with a boss rush game. And after certain bosses its just feels good to relax.
Yeah, its not for everybody, thats for sure. Sorry you didnt like it, im having a blast with it.
Well, fuck the last phase of Sniper Wolf. It will require hours...
>>344215538
>Free on PS+
IT'S NOT FREE
IF YOU PAY FOR IT
Third boss is too hard, I make it to the third phase and get my shit pushed in. Tried for hours. Am I a filthy casual /v/?
>>344222315
I homestly tought she was the hardest boss of normál difficulty. It took me around 3 hours to beat her.
I know you can do it Anon! Just take breaks when you get tired/frustrated. That helped me a lot.
>>344222525
Only of you give up. Basically this:
>>344222596
Just take breaks when you have to. The old guy is pretty fun when you get his rythm!
FuckThe StarI get to 4th phase and just wipe out
Started this game yesterday.
"Beat it" once when Iaccidentally vowed for peace with the Angel lady boss.
I just got up to this 1on1 samurai battle in my second palythrough. This fucking boss is whooping me in 4 hits lmao
Game's hype af.
>>344222891
I don't think I have the patience Anon. I can't for the life of me get a good handle on the counter timing. I know the boss has audio cues but I still can't do it. I parry maybe 1 in every 5 times I try to do it.
>>344220381
is there a download for the full soundtrack yet
>>344222264
I like the walking. Gives nice downtime while hyping the next boss up.
People realize you can just press the dodge button to auto-walk to the boss right?
>>344223020
Are you using the charge beam?
As soon as I realized that it goes though the orbs you usually can't shoot through I beat it on my very next try.
Unless the 4th phase is the endurance phase, I forget how many phases it has.
>>344221453
Except for the second to last boss and the Mothership I thought all bosses were pushovers on Furi. Trying my luck on Furier tomorrow see how that goes.I literally needed one try for each boss except for the second to last boss that I needed like 12 for
>>344223183
Well, nobody can force you. If you feel like its a waste of time for you, than leave it.
Because, I'm sure you could do it, but if you feel like this at the third boss, than you dont want to see the rest of them, believe me
>>344221612
read you fuck.
why would i play a game that surface-level apes japanese mechanics (hack n slash/shmup) and executes on them worse?
There is no creativity to the combat. There's a reason this game is free.
>>344223917
I'm using the laser. The phase that's the issue is the last but one. Also the last phase is also not fun.
How would this game be for a speedrun? I can only imagine all the charge attacks that you'd need to useI'm actually interested in doing it
>>344224342
Japanese and French worked on the game. You mongoloid
>>344221915
Did you think I was saying I hate ps+ or?
>>344218413
>>344218596
What is this epic new meme? My console is silent while playing this.
>>344224852
Lucky you. My console's fan is in overdrive. But I don't hear it because headphones. Why would you play this without them is the real question.
>>344225401
I do have a fan constantly placed in front of my PS4 so maybe that helps.
>>344215538
>all characters but that one angel girl are black
Was this made by the nigs?
>>344224852
It isn't a meme. Furi does a number on the ps4
>>344225732
Well the character designer is the Afro Samurai creator.
>>344221643
>FLAC
P L A C E B O
>>344225732
Afro Samurai's character designer, actually
>>344225732
The dude with sword and shield looks white.
Also the purple sniper chick is looks asian or someshit.
>>344221643
No one has posted it around here as far as I know...
>>344225963
The Burst also has a really British voice.
I didn't recognise any of the English VAs actually in the credits
>>344215538
What the fuck is this discount Donnie Darko talking about?
>>344224612
>Japanese
Afro samurai artist did the *character designs* and they butchered them on implementation, i'm aware.
Face it, you can't beat japanese game design folded over 1000 times, it plays janky as fuck.
>>344226061
Well it is an indie game, they probably had to skimp on VA costs.
They weren't bad though, just amateur.
>Fighting the beat
well she was aamateur and pushover
>>344226223
I rather enjoyed the VAs mind, they had some charm
>free
>>344224342

>>344215538
Fucking old man just fucking crushed me. I`m waiting until tomorrow before I try again. I like how they make use of the mechanics.
>>344226223
The Chain's a professional VA, though
>>344226785
Fucking thief I'm reporting you.
any advice for 4th boss?

>>344223392

My Only Chance (Toxic Avenger)
>>344229096
Thank you so much.
>>344227452
Frog face?
Parry his poison shots, and just shoot him. Not that hard.
Melee form, parry the first hit then go ham and hit him. Prevents his mix up game. Force him to fight you rather than doing his insanely fast aoe shit.
Good fucking luck during his bullet hell stage though.
>stopped to get the comfy ending and now I'm stuck on the 4th boss again
Any idea what happens on easy mode that stops you from progressing the game later? Like cutscenes or whatever?
>>344229619
Youget branded a little bitch
Nothing. You just get more lives, bosses skip phases, and you don't unlock the last difficulty or speedrun mode.
>>344228230
but what do they stand for? what do they mean?
>>344229905
Are you one of those people who need everything spelled out to understand things?
So who do you consider the hardest boss? I think the girl with the wings is pretty damn tough.
Holy shit the final phase of the sewer boss. This shit is impossible
>>344230103
Currently? Old man because m+kb controls are murder
>>344230103
The Burst was the hardest for me because of her last phase. If the bullet hell wasn't hard enough, she goes completely invisible and combo chains me.
>>344230103
The sniper bitch
>>344230697
I fucking hated that old man.
>>344230061
is the meaning really that obvious?
>>344231957
Yeah.
The Beat is called that because SHE IS A FUCKING JOBBER
pitter-patter
>fighting the angel bitch
>starts out with her spraying a shit load of bullets at me
>continues to her spraying bullets at me
>finally turns into melee
>lol jk i'm still going to fire thousands of bullets at you :^)
How do I beat this bitch?
What's with the meme that this game is hard? The only tricky boss was the final one and it was only kinda hard because they put you in a slow floaty mech suit.
>>344226357
I kind of wished that fight was longer. I know it wasn't supposed to be a "real" fight but I like the pseudo-platforming sections. I'm also a little disappointed thatThe Star is a pure bullethell, I was hoping for something more dynamic like The Burst or even The Beat.
>>344233015
just dodge and never stop firing bullets at her.
>>344233015
Try charging your shot to maximum capacity when she stands still or if you want to stop some of her telegraphed attacks, shoot a slightly charged shot to cut her off. Also when she is about to dive into you, charge a shot and hit her directly to stop her dive, with the highest charge dropping her to the ground.
>>344233015
Become the danmaku.Don't worry, I hate her too.
>>344233015
Just keep shooting her? Easiest boss by far, I'm pretty sure I beat her on my first try, so I can't imagine what you're struggling with.
>>344233015
Mostly just shoot basic bullets at her the first few rounds. Melee her when shes on stage (she didn't do much in melee range but it happens) also parry her dive attack for an auto stun melee cutscene thing (later rounds only on the third try)
Look for pillars on her final round and don't fuck up the finishing blow because if you die where her protective bubble normally is it auto kills all your lives
Why is the old man so fucking annoying?
>>344235149
Because you're bad at the game.
>>344231957
Different anon. My interpretation of the titles:
>The ChainBall and chain, being in chains, prisons, etc. Pretty straightforward.
>The StrapAgain fairly obvious. She's strapped to that...weird, mobile gurney thing. Also the whole regenerating cell speaks more to a prison of restraint rather than punishment/subjugation
>The LineFirst not-so-obvious one. I'm guessing it has to do with the way he conceptualizes time as a fixed "line," i.e. a preordained path, destiny, etc.
>The ScaleHe's some kind of weird fish-man so there's that. Also kinda reaching, but maybe scale also refers to the "scale" of the destruction caused by the Stranger?
>The HandThis one honestly has me stumped. I could speculate but I don't want to make a fool of myself.
>The SongA possible allusion to the siren's song? Something that sort of lulls you into calmness, possibly for untoward purposes>The VoiceBunny-guy literally has a microphone. I think he's supposed to somewhat represent the Stranger's conscience, or internal monologue, or something along those lines.
>The BurstBULLET. HELL. Also maybe something about how she's kind of fiery/unpredictable and throws herself into these cuhrazy life-or-death games just for the thrill.
>The EdgeSword-guy. Also I got stuck on him for a while so I heard a lot of his dialogue; there's supposed to be some kind of parallel/reflection between you and him -- like you're both these unstoppable killing machines but one is ostensibly "good" and the other "evil."
>The BeatKinda makes sense but it's hard to explain. The whole acoustic/musical motif she has going on sort of speaks to a pulse or vivacity that goes along with her youthful demeanor.>The Starayy lmao
Holy fuck, finally
a PSPlus game that's actually good
>>344235149
>Multiple anons have trouble with The Line
>Claim The Edge is a pushover
Jesus it's always like this, I'm the reverse of everyone else.
>>344235635
The Edge was a pretty neat fight. That bridge fight was top notch
>>make every second count.
The English voice acting is pretty damn bad.
Luckily there's French and Jap audio which I constantly switch between them and since I can't understand them I can tell if they are bad or good.
>>344235965Do you have any idea the strength that gives me?
Probably the one that hurt the most
>YFW Music by The Toxic Avenger
Not really a fan of how the game works. I hate that you heal after each phase, and KOs don't feel painful enough as losses to me. You just get back up, whatever. And regaining lives is even stupider.
I beat 2 bosses so far and got 3 KOs in total, no game over yet. I would restart from scratch and try for no KOs but eh.
It's okay.
>idling in the garden sends you back to the beginning of the game
Holy fuck why
I thought I would just get a cute little cutscenes at most
I mean, I'm breezing through now that I know the patterns but geez

Daily reminder of best song.
What other games are in this genre?
Am I only the one that feels like most of the final phases are complete visual clutter?
>>344238591
Nier,I guess.
>>344238591
Google twin stick shooters, you'll find similar things.
>>344238690
My biggest complaint about the game is that most final phases are just full schump and not the blend of melee and schump that i love.
>>344238591
Ys Series
>>344238959
Yeah, thats the reason why I think the the edge is one of the best fights in the game.
>>344215538
>there's no hype
>an entire thread about a stylish action game
>not a single webm of this action that's supposed to be so great
DMC4 threads are more hype than this, and that game's been out forever.Maybe if this game was on a platform that allowed easy recording of webms, it would generate more hype here.
>>344239296
It's on PS4 and Steam, what fucking else does it need to be on?
>>344239296
Can the Xbone make webms?
>>344239296
Its on steeam you know.
I doubt Touhou fans and people that are typically neck deep in bullet hells will care for it, but as someone that doesn't really mess with them I dig stuff like Furi, Enter the Gungeon and Nier/Nier Automata
>>344239296
I think most of us are playing it on PS4 since it is on PS+ at the moment.
Better deal then the 30 bucks on Steam.
Anyway, you can literally look up gameplay on youtube, which includes the great music.
>>344215538
>beat this on normal earlier today
>Unlock Furier mode
>"Oh, I'll give the first boss a shot
Oh, fuck. I can't imagine the bullet hell boss on this difficulty.

>>344243523
>The Song
I mean The Star, whoops
>>344242946
Best environ?
>>344244329
I liked The Line's prison a hell of a lot
The Strap's had great atmosphere too
To be honest, the walking sim portions of this game were all really well executed. Top notch atmosphere and buildup to the hectic fights.
So, correct me if I'm wrong here butThe Song wanted to be with his daughter, but he knew so long as The Rider was there, he would never be free of his duty. So he breaks out The Rider, and The Rider slaughters his way down until he is out. With The Rider free, The Song can finally be with his daughter.
Also, I assume there is some way to fight The Song? Checking my practice list, I'm missing the #11 fight. Do you get that fight by NOT fucking off to space? Either way, that's a shame. I don't feel like beating the game again just to get an extra fight. It was fun, but not worth the hassle of a second playthrough.
>>344245182
>tfw fucked up the name
I mean the rabbit dude, not the crossbow slut. He's obviously one of the guardians.
>>344245182
The Voice.
I think the way the prison was designed, the gates literally wouldn't open unless the jailers died. Which is a kind of weird way to design a prison, when you think about it.
He wanted to see his daughter again so he released and armed the only man capable of killing the best.
>>344245182
its chapter 7 and 11, they just dont have bosses
>>344245516
So how did The Voice open his own gate?
>>344245534
So I'm not missing any fights?
For a board that shat themselves sensless over Metal Gear Rising, i assumed a senseless shooter mixed with simple action game controls all with neo-retro soundtrack would have been all over the board for days
>>344245713
Good question
>>344245791
MGR was part or a preestablished series with a big following.
The bullet hell gameplay, lack of fodder enemies, atmospheric walking portions are all also more of an acquired taste than "you can cut dudes into a million pieces while buttrock blares in the background. Spine ripping holy shit"

Post yfw you realizeif rabbitdude hadn't busted you out, it would've saved knightdad, angelface, and beatsbydre but doomed the rest of the planet.
>>344235336The Hand is prolly directly referring to being the hand of a higher power, like the term "right-hand man." Referring to somebody as another's hand in literature often implies that they're somebody who acts for a higher power.
>>344250115
You're an immortal Alien Horseman of the Apocalpyse, it makes no sense for you to side with your captors at the End. Rabbithead doomed his entire planet so he can see his kid again
>>344250115
Why would leaving him in there doom the planet? The Voice wanted to see his daughter, no matter the consequences, I thought. They knew he was an alien (it's brought up in some boss dialogues) but the game didn't reveal it fully until the end obviously. But The Voice was talking about "having hope" when he spared The Song, that maybe he wouldn't destory the earth.
Last boss is a fucking piece of shit, prove me wrong.
I literally stopped at her second-to-last phase. I wasn't having fun. It was just difficult, and difficulty without fun is meaningless. If I wanted to play a bullet hell I'd play a bullet hell, and I sure as fuck don't want to play a bullet hell. Previous bosses had bullet hell elements, of course, but it was bearable because it was well-paced with melee sections.
But the last boss...I don't want to play fucking touhou.
How could they fuck the up the final boss so hard in a boss rush game?
>>344250673
there were bullet hell elements through the entire game, it's basically what you've been doing the entire time without parrying.
>>344250438
Yeah butif he'd stayed in the prison do you really think the mothership would just stay dormant forever/fuck off somewhere else? They'd probably just send another guy. Releasing him at least provided a chance that he'd spare/protect the planet.
>>344250451

>Why did they make the last boss hard in a Boss rush game?
Hey man, I'm just as confused as you are.
Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go have a hearty supper of glue before my routine evening pants-shitting
Stuck on very last robo boss face thing. Definitely hardest boss in game.
>>344250673
The Edge is a fucking piece of shit, prove me wrong.
I literally stopped at his second to last phase. I wasn't having fun. It was just difficult, and difficulty without fun is meaningless. If I wanted to play an action game I'd play an action game, and I sure as fuck don't want to play and action game. Previous bosses had action elements, of course, but it was bearable because it was well-paced with bullet hell sections.
But The Edge... I don't want to fucking play Dark Souls.
How could they fuck up a boss so hard in a boss rush game?
How does it run on PS4? I could get it for free on there or PC.
>>344250881
I played it through tired, I thought that's what The Voice meant when he said "I didn't expect that from you", or was he referring to the hesitation? Either way it supports the same idea.
>>344250927
not about difficulty. It was just a badly-designed boss. LITERALLY a bullet hell.
I spent more time on Sniper girl than I did on the final boss, because I actually enjoyed the Sniper chick fight (except the last phase, which was also a fucking bullet hell). I got to the 2nd-to-last phase on mothership. With another ~1hr I could've beaten it, but it literally wasn't fun any more.
>>344217225
she wasn't that bad, the third boss is fucking ridiculous though
>>344251014
The Edge was just one in a series of fights. I don't even personally consider him to be part of the "main" jailers, just kind of a random "and now for something completely different!"
The final boss should've been a culmination of all the previous stuff you've done, plus maybe a few surprises. The Burst makes a better final boss than either The Beat or The Star.
>>344251276
Technically it's an optional boss anyway. It might been a lot better if you had to face another "Rider" in a clone fight or something but I still thought it was fine.
>finally killing this old fuck on Furier
died like a solid 10 times against him
i kept getting so tilted and the final stage is a fucking nightmare. i'm not ready for the rest of the game
>there is no thread and i must shill

Speaking of final bosses, what's up with the snow chick? She was so fucking easy

The Song turns into a demon lady and she consumes you right then and there. So basically, instant game over.

Rebellion. And honestly, he probably went somewhere far away.I went to the tower in search for a way to get back to the prison.

if you think he's bad now, just wait til you fight him on Hard mode

Him and The Star are why I'm not even going to bother with a Hard Mode attempt. I barely had the patience for them on normal.
>>344245713
It's implied that he's the architect of the whole prison. Maybe he'd built in a workaround for himself.
>>344215538
This game is really fun. I am enjoying how to maneuver through each boss. I wanted to see what people were saying and this came up.
Why did she feel personally mocked and get offended over a game's difficulty? I left a comment but someone called me sexist, am I being trolled?
http://kotaku.com/indie-boss-battler-furi-is-the-wrong-kind-of-hard-1783130485
Did anyone else fantasize aboutbeing violently raped by the second boss?
Is there any way to talk to the kid after you beat the hand?I wanna rub his dad's death in his face. What now bitch, who's got more strength huh?
>>344258146
it's just kotaku being kotaku. they'll get triggered over anything, including a game being too harrd
>>344258146
Just don't give them clicks dude. I bet the RPS faggot who sucked at Hyper Light Drifter will come up with a similar article as well. "They have a button to auto-walk, why not a button to auto-win the fights?"
>>344258146
It's clickbait, it has to be. There are several games that are MUCH worse about shaming you for playing on easier difficulties.
Also if I remember right there's a later section where she complains about how the game "punishes" you because The Chain shittalks you. Granted, his dialogue is pretty tryhard/edgy, but it only becomes grating if you keep getting your shit kicked in, which I have a hard time fathoming because I fucked up pretty much that entire fight and still only lost like two lives.
Am I the only one experiencing lots of screen tearing?
Lots may be a bit of an overstatement but it's very noticeable and happens almost every time I dodge
>>344259064
Have you tried turning V-Sync on?
>>344244509
The only one I flat-out didn't like was The Scale.
>>344244509
i just wish you could skip the walking segments on subsequent playthroughs
going through Furier now and I've already heard everything. it was cool the first time but now i just get up and go make a coffee or something
I'm getting that hot old man dick on Furier right now. The last bit is doing me in always when I have 2 towers left.
Feels bad man.
>>344260453
I'm on PS4, so no
>>344259064
>>344260836
I have not noticed any on PS4.
Does anyone else get weird stuns on The Star with M+KB? Sometimes when I get hit the reticle just centers on the character and I can't aim or shoot unless I wiggle the mouse a bit. Also, sometimes when I charge the laser beam the fucker shoots it at the bottom of the screen for some reason.
Best boss?
>>344261698
I actually think it's the screamy laser face lady. Great area, nice ramping up lots of phases, good balance of ranged and melee.
I'd probably pick Burst if it wasn't for her instakill attacks. Edge is also cool but he's pretty easy and a bit gimmicky.
>when you barely beat a boss
oh nelly
>>344263335
>tfw I literally just did this with slightly more health, like two and a half bars
oh baby
the only thing i hate about this game is the waggling QTEs
should've just made them a timed button press or something. i fucking hate waggling
>>344263949
I actually kinda like how you have to wiggle both sticks with one hand
it's pretty easy
I love this guy

I got some really bad screen tearing on The Burst but none of the other bosses
>>344230103
The Star
>>344264874
his angry face didn't really match up with his voice
he sounded really chill but he looked really mad all the time
I'm going to say at first I thought the game was going to be cruddy with the first boss but the game really picks itself up right after. especially with the music on the third level
>>344220618
No More Heroes is a beautiful looking game with a great art style and world, I like Furi but it is ugly as shit.
>>344266136

The Scale's no pushover, man. Especially on furier.
It's not the same massive jump in difficulty that the line had but it's still there
>>344266340
I dunno, I took both Scale and Hand on first try, but Line fucked me up
>>344266340
he's not too bad -- i just really hate his final move in his last phase where he cuts up the area into little squares and fires the shockwaves at you
i was so bad at dodging those, i just ran into the lines half the time to intentionally take less damage

Kinda sad how the best fight song for me was the first fight song. I really liked The Star's fight theme as well; I suppose it was by the same artist.
>>344266524
Thankfully The chain is a MUCH better fight on furier
they just skip the tutorial and he lets you have it, it's actually believable that he's the one guarding you now
So how many endings are there? I gotRebellion, but there is obviously another option there.
Is there something else to do other thango into space?
Am I missing something? Boss #11 is missing from practice mode.
had to quit the game because of the bullets hell phase, this kills my motivation. Too bad because otherwise it's great.
>>344266678As far as I know there's Rebellion where you fuck up the mothership, The ending where you verify the invasion and you and all the clones burn the earth and kill everybody, and the ending where you decide to stay put at the song's request and the game just ends there.
>>344266698
It's a mistranslation. the numbers are for levels, not bosses. There are two levels in the game where you don't fight a boss at all.
>>344266723
just shoot and dodge
>>344266723
big tip for anyone new to bullet hell type stuff
Most of the challenge is in your head. Instead of looking at the big clusterfuck of bullets coming right at you, focus on dodging and getting to safe places in the local area around you. It's less hard than it looks, albeit still challenging.
>>344266678
It's actually chapters. #7 and #11 are both walk around chapters. 7 beingThe Song's/Rabbit Guy's areaand 11 beingthe village.

Anyone got a MEGA of the soundtrack? One that's not the bandcamp rip.
I had a choice between between buying the game and buying the soundtrack and I bought the game.
>>344266889
I disagree with this completely. Granted, I'm not exactly a bullethell veteran, but I'm pretty sure the general strategy is to try and find geometric patterns in the bullets. So, big picture, not small picture.
Especially in this game, almost all the bullethells have very regular patterns and the game rewards you for taking the time to learn patterns even if you take damage/lose a life in the process.
>>344267025
That he just netted a job at Polygon.
>>344267192
I mean whatever works for the individual, I guess.
>>344267116
This game flew in completely under the radar with like no advertising and being free on PS+ didn't help. A few bigg-ish twitch streamers played it once and that's IT.
This game needs a big meme youtuber to play it or it's going to be a complete failure.
>>344266723
The bullet hell segments in normal difficulty are pretty tame. If you try the harder difficulty they crank that aspect of the game up to 11. You'll have times when 90% of the screen is covered in bullets, and that's not an exaggeration
The combat itself seems pretty simple. Dash in, whack whack, dash out, pew pew pew, repeat
Challenging, but not particularly complex. It feels like it's mostly just a really long game of memorizing patterns.
I'm not sure if I'll like it, I'm willing to try it... but releasing it post-summer-sale, these devs hopefully realize nobody's got the cash right now. Give it a couple weeks and sales will pick up.
I will say, though, that while I generally dislike the boss rush structure, they are some pretty excellent boss fights; the arenas they take place in are almost levels unto themselves. Kind of a neat idea.
>>344267296
>being free on PS+ didn't help
actually that's going to help it big time, because Sony pays the devs for each download of the game, and everyone with PS+ just grabs everything free off the store
>>344267619
Oh.
Well, that's good.
>played for a bit yesterday
>only thing that's given me any trouble is the really thick beam on the last phase of the second boss.
How do I avoid it? Dodging through works about 1/5 times? Am I missing something?
>>344267785
if you hold the dash button, you will dash further
i assume you mean the big cone shaped one that slowly moves towards you
>>344267820
wait nvm, you're talking about another attack - but yeah - just hold the dash button to increase your dash distance
>>344267296
From what I've seen of twitch streamers, a lot of people are bitching because it's hard. And that scares other streamers because not everyone can make a career of fucking up in front of a few thousand people.
If I had to throw one name at Furi, I would have to say Chip from Chip and Ironicus. He's one of the few lets players that actually enjoys action games and can show what it looks like to actually be good at Furi, at least the non-bullet hell parts.
Not to suck its dick or shitpost, but Furi is legitimately difficult at parts. And honestly, some people just suck dick at vidya. If you told me 70%+ of the people who play Furi never get past The Line/Old Man, I wouldn't be surprised. Past The Chain/Jailer, the game gives no fucks about whether or not you're having a good time and understand the mechanics completely. Hell, I didn't know you could parry bullets until I was at The Song
>>344267785
If you hold down dash you can charge it to extend the teleport range. If you can't get through the laser with a tap dash, hold it for a bit before letting go. Even for a flash of a second will give you a body length or so of extra distance. Get used to dash THROUGH shit. It's a mandatory skill.
The sniper girl boss was so good. Every other boss was bad in comparison. Killing that smug cunt felt amazing
>>344267820
>if you hold the dash button, you will dash further
God this fucked me up so much in the beginning -- both because the charged dash helps immensely with aoe attacks and because there's a very slight delay on the dash button because it needs to check if you're charging
>>344267871
Actually I learned the hard way that it's technically possible to avoid the wedge attack altogether if you immediately start dashing sideways when she sends out the first couple waves.
>>344267956
On PS4 the amount of people that beat The Line is something around 11%
>>344226223
The VAs for the most part were pretty good actually, the only character who's voice I couldn't stand was The Song. I thought I was fighting Clinton
>"I didn't want to hurt you. But I will"
UGHHHHH
>>344267785
For the big swinging beam, you can actually dodge it with a non-charged dash, but you just have to time it very precisely. You basically have to be as close as possible without taking damage before dashing to go through it.
>>344268146
>I thought I was fighting Clinton
that was the intention
>>344215538
Good game concept, really fucking repetitive in practice.
>>344268146Jap voices, English subtitles
>>344267563
>The combat itself seems pretty simple. Dash in, whack whack, dash out, pew pew pew, repeat
I haven't played Furi but that's pretty much exactly how most shmups (which Furi draws heavy inspiration from) play too, they usually only have 2-3 buttons in addition to arrow keys and the core gameplay is often as simple as it gets. The fun comes from bullet patterns and dodging them, not from having a wide array of tools to deal with the game situations. In fact I think that this gameplay minimalism is a big reason for why the genre works so well, it sticks to the basic stuff and tries to execute it well. Of course not everyone has to like this kind of approach, but based on your post I think that the Furi devs know really well what they're trying to aim for. But yeah I've still yet to actually play the game.
>>344268304
>Not French
If there's one thing I can say I really liked about Furi, is that it nailed the concept of dodging moves and punishing them very well.
I hate it when I play other games and getting opportunities to hit bosses feels so arbitrary. I was playing Yakuza 3 the other day and even when you dodge a huge attack and then dash behind them and go to hit them in the fucking spine, it was basically a 50/50 coin flip on whether they would just do a 180 and start immediately blocking you.
>>344268238
Why do you say that? Because you have to restart every time you die?
phases can go by pretty quick if you know exactly what you're doing, and if you're just talking about the length of bosses in general, they change things up enough for them to not feel like you're doing the same thing for six phases.
>>344268146
Best VAs were The Line, The Voice, and The Hand, y/n
>>344268304
there are japanese voices?!are they good?
>>344268419
From looking at the menus, there's English, Japanese and French. I only played in English so I can't comment on the other two languages
>game with very simple visuals
>still manages to make console run hot enough to make it maximize its fan speed
Don't you just love Unity engine?
>>344268406
I wasn't crazy about The Voice, which is kinda bad considering you listen to him for half the game. I actually liked The Beat, though I can see how some people might've found her voice kinda whiny.
>>344215538
Is the soundtrack done by Perturbator?
Random tips that took me a few accidents to discover
>Parry reflects all but a few types of bullets back. Try it out on The Song, mandatory for The Burst
>You can do almost every action while charging a melee attack, albeit awkwardly. You can parry, dash, and charge up a dash while holding melee and it'll function just the same. For certain bosses, there is no reason to NOT be charging a melee attack at all times because...
>Charge attacks, both melee and shot, are how you 'Punish' attacks. At the end of a combo string or during a taunt animation (when they stop what they're doing, pose, and talk shit), if you hit them with a charge attack, you'll Punish the boss and open them up for a counter attack similar to if you perfect parried them. So instead of parrying four times then just mashing the attack combo, you can hold attack, parry the four times, and smash them with the charge attack. You'll get the charge attack damage AND the counter attack. The only reason you shouldn't be trying for this is during The Edge's fight because he just tells you to fuck off if you try to activate Counter Attack on him.
>>344268610
Various artists. Carpenter Brut and Toxic Avenger are some of them, don't know about Perturbator. One of the Brut songs sounds just like the Brut/Perturbator collab song though
>>344268531
No, The Beat was good. She sounds like a normal idealistic kid who's in way over her head, which is about right.
I actually liked some of The Voice's deliveries a lot but I can't really name any of them in particular, just a general "this is pretty good" reception
"I'm here to make my clocks TICK again" is great, though
A lot of people will probably disagree with me on this, but I think that the decision to not include blood hurt the game more than they realized. It just doesn't feel very visceral or satisfying when you watch the animation of a boss getting cut up with a critical attack, and they just sort of get smacked around limply with no real indication of serious damage being inflicted.
Small complaint, but still it bugged me.
>>344268610
according to the bandcamp page, Carpenter Brut, Danger, The Toxic Avenger, Lorn, Scattle, Waveshaper and Kn1ght
>>344268354
I think the thing is there's only so much you can do with a controller. A lot of "advanced" or "extended" moves in most games are just shortcuts or fancy ways of doing simpler tasks. The only way to add complexity is add a secondary/"virtual" layer of interaction(puzzles, crafting) or by changing the interaction method. Nobody's built a better "mousetrap" -- controller -- yet, though.
Is there a video somewhere of what the PS4 Dynamic Theme looks like?
I tried looking up "Furi dynamic ps4 theme" on youtube and couldn't find anything, it's like the search engine ignored the word Furi
>>344268354
Yeah but it's as much a brawler as a bullet hell, and I would have liked to maybe see a little more consideration given to the melee systems.
I mean, getting close enough to the boss to do any damage at all is pretty fucking difficult, it would have been nice to have a combat system that at least let me ATTEMPT a stunlock so I could get off more than 2 hits.
A lot of people complaining about repetitiveness and fight duration would probably feel the same way; you dodge for 3 minutes but there's never that glorious 45 seconds where you nail him with 3 different combo strings and a special chainer in exactly the right order and time to keep his lifeless body pinned against a wall while you drink his HP.
All you work for is chip damage and the occasional auto-attack animation sequence; it's a lost layer of depth, but also I think the core gameplay suffers from the lack of variety and player agency during those rare moments when you can actually hit the fucker.
>>344269038
You can drain shitloads of health at once, it's all about charge attacks, basically.
>>344265783
> "Nice!"
> Makes pissed off face like he's going to fucking kill you

>>344271141The laserface comes off and she's a total qtp3.14
So how likely is it that The Voice knew about the alien threat, considering he knew Rider was an alien weapon?
I'm thinking he freed Rider just so the planet would have a chance to survive. Set in motion the deaths of the jailers so the rest of the population might live and all that.
He says he wants to see his daughter again. I think he knew that if Rider was his only hope to save her life so he acted in desperation.

i'm pretty sure all the jailers knew the Rider was an alien threat -- that's why they went through all that to lock him up
he was probably getting tired of guarding the prison and wanted to just see his daughterfu and change the Rider's heart
>>344271736
They all knew he was Alien, even the Chain refers to Rider as a different "Breed". He knew the earth was in peril anyway because of potentially other Riders so his only chance to see his daughter again was to let him out, with him talking about "hope" that Rider might be able to stop the planet's destruction. But that was never his primary concern.
>>344271736
>>344271986
>>344272050
I'm pretty sure that the daughter was dying of some illness or something which was why The Voice went crazy enough to let out the Doomsday Alien he was supposed to be guarding. The Hand's Son was perfectly able to visit his Dad so its probably a deliberate contrast.
>Kill the hand
>feel bad about it
>the next boss is a qt that asks you to live with her forever
>actually stay with her
And they said this game was hard
>>344220070
Strange how the edge is so dividing. Heard some people say it's the best boss and others say it's boring as shit and hard for the wrong reasons.
I mean, it just tests reflexes so in a sense it's a boss that just makes you practice on parry, but that's kind of what makes him unique and boring as well, the real flaw is that it takes out all other options so you can't feel like you're properly outsmarting or conquering him by any other way than brute force, which isn't that satisfying to me because parry feels good only to a certain extent, not when it's your only option, also not being able to combo him was a good choice on game design but it deprived me of any satisfied shit-eating grin i might have assumed while comboing other annoying bosses. It was satisfying seeing the fucker finally going down though.
>>344272427
The Hand's son wasn't visiting, The Voice says after the fight that if he loved him, why would he keep him here. Combined with what looked like a family home in the background means the kid was stuck there.
The Voice talked about missing his daughter, not sure if she was dying though. He probably assumed the world was gonna end anyway with other aliens which they were almost certainly aware of, and being the prison architect he was the only person with enough knowledge of the place to break him out. So it was his only way of leaving and seeing his daughter again before the world was going to end.
>>344271986
>>344272050
>>344272427
It's weird that they all mention him being alien, yet The Star mentions that they don't even know they exist and nobody will ever know what Rider did.
Was that just demotivational talk?
>>344272696
It's really gimmicky so it all comes down to whether you like the gimmick or not. Personally I thought that after The Burst's heavy bullet hell gameplay The Edge had a nice melee-centric gimmick
>>344272736
Maybe only a select few people knew about the aliens? That he was risking his life to stop the mothership and even if he was successful there was no reward in it since they couldn't accept him on earth because his still causes life to wither around him.
>>344235635Excellence is not an art, it's pure habit. We are what we repeatedly do.
Can you somehow disable the retarded mouse aiming/dodging or do i have to get a gamepad?
>>344266413
You can stop the lines with the charged shot. Even if you only get one you'll have twice the area to move around in.
>>344273273
It's a twinstick shooter
>>344235312
No, the next 2/3 bosses are a joke compared to that fucktard
>green guy: if anything the last phase is hard
>shield guy: a joke once you realize how slow he is
>the qt: it's ok
>>344273273
It's mainly designed as a twin stick shooter, so unfortunately no.
I'm on the 4th boss so far and this game feels like a failed mashup of MGR and Ys.
Aside from the soundtrack there doesn't seem to be anything great about it. The input lag on the dodge is disgusting.
>>344272828
Well i hated the burst because i was stuck on the melee portion so the edge was like experiencing the same nightmare in a different flavour.
I don't think i've still distinguished between the 1 and 2 hit combo, the 4 hit combo was pretty easy to recognize but i had given up on that at some point, i hate how it switched randomly between dem combos, totally felt like dice rolls, i always waited too late to retaliate in fear the combo didn't end, when i saw it stopped it was too late already. Any advanced tips for that apart from maybe turning her visible with the pistol first so you can see her animations more clearly?
How do I beat The Burst/Sniper Jellyfish final phase?
I can't keep track of all the bullet waves coming from left and right, watching so I don't dash into the blue 'no-no' ares while simultaneously worrying to find cover from her sniper fire?
Get FUCKED you bitch!
>>344273425
It's not input lag, the dodge starts on button release because you can charge it.
>>344273425
>Input lag
It's straight up not. It's a charging move. It doesn't take a genius to understand how the dodge works.Hint: It executes on the depress
i don't understand the game.
when should i attack, parry, shoot, when should i be doing damage, when should i be dodging bullets etc.
please hold my hand
>>344273425
I know that an instant dodge would have a completely different feel, akin to Hyper Light Drifter or something, but it's not like it was a bug, it was a control choice. Being able to spam dodge without thinking would have changed the gameplay too much.
>>344273625
You have more time than you think with the sniper lock on, it's there to pressure you. You should mainly be trying to dodge through the intersection of her bullet wave and the horizontal ones so you have to make one timed dodge instead of two.
>>344273625
So final stage, at the start, you can predict the blue spots, making it easier.
I don't have a strategy of sorts to when she goes full carnage, it pretty much relies on reflexes and intuition.
>>344273750
There's always easy mode, you pathetic loser.
>>344273750
Depends entirely on the bosses, and as such, I can not give a concrete answer.
>>344273750
Go back to western vidya with slow-ass choreographed movements and notifiers
>>344273858
>>344273992
I don't think she's saying that it's bad, just that she's not fully grasped the mechanics of the game.
>>344273858
>>344273992
>easy mode
fuck of tryhard bullethell babys.
>>344273884
it's more like, why should i ever shoot if i can melee attack, or why should i parry if i don't need a heal.
>>344274140
Some times you can't melee attack, in which case you shoot to keep up the dps. Parrying allows you to stay close without taking damage, even if you don't need to heal, and allows you to counter in most situations.
>>344274140
>why should i ever shoot if i can melee attack
The Song.
>>344274140
>why should i parry if i don't need a heal.
The Edge.
>>344273715
>>344273740
>>344273789
Just because they did it on purpose doesn't mean it's a good mechanic or not input lag.
I value responsiveness in action games.
>>344273750
pic related
on a serious note though, we can't give the ultimated advice because like a wise anon once said it depends entirely on bosses, but try to dodge all bullets, except for super fast player seeking purple motherfuckers that you can parry. Always try to learn the opponent's combos and parry them reliably, otherwise you dodge them, but if you do you gotta dodge them good, some bosses have hits make them move like 10 meters ahead so they can still catch you. Parry is useful not just because of the heal, they let you punish the boss ending the combo right as they finish, you might have a delay by dodging that won't let you get that 4th knock down strike. Shoot things you can't reach or if it's faster doing a charged shot than dashing to him and doing a half-assed combo.
>>344274257
>>344274140
Parrying also carries the possibility of you performing a perfect parry, which is free mad damage+knockdown, both of which are really good for you.
>>344273992
>western vidya with slow-ass choreographed movements and notifiers
You mean the game that's being talked about in this whole thread then.
>mfw The Voice fight
>>344274336
You haven't played much vidya, have you
>>344274305
It's not they did it on purpose, the charged button system they adopted cannot employ an instant dodge, i guess you could bind it to another button on pc? but why would you do that if you could just git gud like many others did with the "input lag".
Plus nobody said it's a good mechanic, if i'm arguing anything it's that it works.
>>344274305
But the charged dash is absolutely needed at phases of Furier difficulty bosses. Like the Strap and the Song.
>>344274305
Being too responsive also gives the feeling of weightlessness, which is bad too. Consider how much more you need to charge the dash in Furier, it's fine as it is.
Fuck the grandpa fight his delays suck dicks and so do bullet hells
>>344274457
>being too responsive is bad too
What the fuck am I reading
>>344274425
More than you if you think this particular one is fast, not choreographed, without notifiers and not western.
So how come stuff only started to wither around Rider as soon as he stepped out of prison?
Was the prison sapping his destructive nature?
Was he engineered to wither the planet he landed on?
So who's the casual filter of this game? The old guy or the sniping bitch?
>>344274460
>bullet hells suck!
you're playing the wrong game then you dummies, this is probably more bullet hell than it is brawler/hack n slash. most of the bosses are spent dodging bullet patterns.
>>344274541
The Line is definitely the casual filter though supreme casuals get tripped up on the strap or the chain, even
>>344274541
The Line.
>>344274514
Instant transmission would be retarded, if it had no wind up animation at all it would be worse than it currently is.
>>344274541
I don't think The Burst is much harder than some of the other bosses, while for me The Line was a lot harder than The Strap.
if i beat furier on speedrun mode, do i get the achivement to win the game on furier?
or do i have to do the walking shit every time?
>>344274442
>>344274453
I'm not arguing against a charge move, but it could have easily been assigned to another button or use a modifier.
>>344274576
I hope the studio does a more hacknslash approach next time
Dodging projectiles is fine until you get hit because you are used to your dashes being instant or the screen is just a clusterfuck.
The game is pretty good but jesus do I hate bullet hells and I'm thirsty for action games
I just beat the third boss and man it was bad. I love danmaku but those first 2 phases were a pure waste of time. Not challenging or interesting, just a slog to go through. Puts me to sleep before the rest of the fight.
>>344274823
furier mode is probably more your speed, then
>>344274823
I know it's not really an excuse for a boring section but it was semi fitting for the time dude to waste your time.
sodapoppin already played it, just get over it and move on

>when should i be dodging bullets

>>344274639
I haven't actually paid that much attention but I'm pretty sure it has no wind up animation either way, you either charge or you're going sanic
>>344275629
It has a slight recovery period too doesn't it?
>>344221453

>>344276386
Edge is only hard if you can't parry him. He does lots of damage. I had trouble with his delayed swings catching me.
>>344276643
u don't have to kill her though
>>344276890
You've got to be shitting me
>>344274541
Only 11% of people that own Furi on PS4 have beaten The Line, so him
>>344215538
Any game with Carpenter Brut in the soundtrack is alright in my books. That and the game kicks ass anyway.
>>344276976
Well currently it's 12.8%, but yeah still pretty low. But when you see that only 59% of people have only beaten the Chain, its not as surprising.
>>344277289
I want to know what happened to the other 40%
Did they kind of just go "Yeah I can't beat this" and stop playing

>>344278110
mouse are much better for anybody who doesnt have a console
you dodge where the cursor point, wasd doesnt factor in it (which it should have).
Beat the last boss. Good ending.
Now when's the next one?
>>344266339>as he gets more tiredHoly shit man I thought he just delayed the attacks to throw off your counter. That's sad
So I breezed through the campaign on Furi and it took me 3 hours, got a B ranking first time, all but 2 bosses beaten first time (sniper and final bullet hell, sniper died twice and bullet hell final boss died about 15 times) and now I'm trying Furier.
I've died on the first boss so fucking much man, Furi was a fun breeze, Furier's first boss is harder than the final boss on Furi
This game is fun

I'm a Touhou fan and I find this game very intersting.
The only problem is that I don't have a worthwhile PC/Console to play it.
what do you think senpai 2nd playthrough first was the other ending
>>344279606
What I did was dodged forward and then dodged back immediately on every shockwave
Did anyone find the post-run about area way too cool?
Finally being able to sprint around in a free roam style was awesome, a shame this game didn't have more of thathell, the game is solid enough that if they made a sequel that had reals levels and then an awesome boss fight, I would be 110% OK with that
>>344279285
There is literally LP coming out
>>344279950
I mean not bad, but it's hard for me to consider it a full playthrough without fighting the star
the star is the real shit
>>344280029
I dunno, I liked the minimalist direction of everything outside of the fights. It felt kinda like what I might want out of a Samurai Jack game.
>>344220381
That was actually awful. Why is it so muddied? It's like Hotline Miami if you started drowning it in a neon pink lake.
Can this meme die? Can this ascetics go back to being a cool relic with Lamborghini Countaches and leopard skin furniture? Stop parading this style.
>>344279606
I finished the game with a D rank. It seems to count all the other times you get hit and KO'd on the boss...
Well time to S rank Furi now I beat the game.
>>344280241
It's perfectly adrenaline pumping music. it's great to fight to, that's why it's amazing as a vidya soundtrack.
I'll be doing awful in a comp shooter and put carpenter brut or something on and get a noticeable performance increase.
>>344280145

Its a fact that you get your moneys worth with ps+. Ergo, That would/should negate the "Pay for internet" argument.
Understandable that if; you do not want the games and do not use the discounts then you are then "forced" to pay for internet.
Arguing over the point that someone is getting way more out of their subscription than you would is stupid.
Just beat the fourth boss, loving this game. Not the type of mechanics I'm used to and honestly, took me longer to get used to than Bloodborne ever did compared to the Souls series but enjoying it
>>344280415
No its overhyped, uncreative, template formed drivel. I have an entire playlist of this kind of music and I love Bruta and Perbs and TimeCops music for the most part.
But at this point, it might as well be dubstep.
gg
Ok I've finally worked out why I kept randomly dying to lasers
Using BetterDS3 on a PC to use a ps3 controller to play it, sometimes it won't register you holding down buttons, and even if you hold them down (such as dodge) the character will immediately do a short dodge, even though I'm trying to charge for a long one
Fuck I was gettin so mad over these stupid lasers but turns out it's some fucking Furi PC Port or PS3 controller driver bug
Even if I just hold down the shoot button sometimes randomly the shot is released, soemtimes immediately as if i had only tapped the button, yet I'm holding it down
Fucking PC

>Didn't know you could charge dodge
>got through the game anyway
Huh, thinking about it now, that makes a lot of dodges way easier.
>>344285558
There are only a few moves that rely on you to utilize them, it wouldn't be too tough to finish the game without knowing it.
>>344285725
Dodging the star lasers was kinda tough though, you had to get the timing just right.
>fun cool fight
>last phase is a bullethell
yeah... woo
fucking furier
>fighting the sniper
>hey this ain't so bad
>then the final phase kicks in
I either dash into a bullet, dash into a bullet, or dash into a shockwave.
>>344273273
There's an option in the menu called "mouse mode" that should actually be called "dodge mode". With 'reticle' you dodge where you aim, with 'directional' you set the direction of your dodge with the move keys.
>>344286536
Well shit, that makes it easier
>>344277987
More bullets, and you take more damage. Bosses basically stop holding back and will face fuck you to death within seconds.
>>344286536
>>344288173
Nevermind, old man still hard as fuck
Wow, at least wait till all the bullets exit the screen before you assault me with the lasers The Star.I quit for today.
>>344290292
in my case, chaging mouse mode made my fight against the start easier

>Best song starts playing
>>344292365
That guy was probably the most hype battle along with the Edge, especially when he went full paladin.
Too bad he was kind of a pushover.
The Star was cool but there really needed to be one more fight that was a culmination of all the mechanics.
I liked how The Edge broke it down to just swordplay and parrying, while The Star was just full-on bullet hell, but there needed to be another hybrid fight like The Burst. I think the lack of a fight against another Rider was a totally missed opportunity.
>>344292787
>Alright one healthbar left, let's see what kind of bullet hell phase a guy with a sword has
>Thrusts the fucking sword into the ground and makes an electric arena
That was so crazy hype
>>344293109
I'm hoping for DLC. I was expecting The Voice to be the hybrid you're talking about.
>>344293284
I was expecting the Assimilation ending to be a fight against the Voice. Like you crash down back to Earth and then he tries to stop you from fucking shit up.
Too bad it's basically just a 'skip The Star' option.
>>344293197
It's basically his last stand
He keeps attacking you as he grows more tired (i.e. his attacks gets slower and slower)
Basically he's launching his final desperation attack to protect his kid and what he believes in.
Is it bugged or is Furier really just that hard? I can't beat the Line's last stage on Furier, I can't imagine what the later bosses will be like.
>>344294998
The Scale and The Hand were much easier than The Line; I think he received the largest difficulty spike. I'm up to The Song right now and she has some pretty fucking tough patterns as well.
>wait before the 6th boss to see what happens
>have to start the game over from the beginning
well that was dumb
>>344295563
>have to
You finished the game.
It's a ending just like any of the other 2.
>>344295751Do you think the Rider is equipped with a robo-dick. I'm assuming he's some kind of robot, but he does have a heart rate so I'm not entirely sure.
>>344295563
holy shit
that's fucking retarded
>>344295870
He has a heartrate and can feel pain and sorrow. He can most likely reproduce but you're pretty autistic for worrying about it in the first place to be quite honest.
Is this on steam or something?
>>344296320
i browse /v/, what can i say
>>344296384
Steam and PS4.
>>344296531
Nice
Does anyone else get bothered by games that present you with several options for combat but arbitrarily force you to use one style over the other to complete something?
I have lasers in this game. I'll be damaging some asshole with my lasers, but then suddenly he is perfectly teleporting away from 10-15 perfectly placed charged blasts. Or I'll run up on him and start slashing, but again perfect blocks every time. The game is saying "No, fuck you, do other things now just because." It just doesn't flow for me, or feel satisfying at all.
I love Punch-Out and games like it, and it seems like this is the same sort of pattern/rhythm based battle system as that, so why do I hate this game? What am I missing?
It's pretty fun. I just wish it didn't look as shit.
>>344298391
What? They had a japanese mangaka to do the character designs, and the environment looks pretty gorgeous.
>>344298634
>japanese mangaka to do the character designs
Whel that's why it looks like shit
>>344298634
Textures are fucking shit quality, no matter how good the design is.
>>344298634
I think it looks pretty amateur and tacky, but maybe that's because I'm just not into 'mangaka' or whatever the fuck that means. The dialogue is a joke and none of the characters seem authentic. The environments and music can be alright but that's about it.
>>344295751
wow ur so klever lol
I don't give a shit about "finishing the game"
>>344298950
Then what is the fucking problem?
>>344298297
You actually can land a hit with the blaster while the enemy is dodging, or counter his perfect block and whack him with a sword, unless he's in the invulnerability phase (orange), it's just really tricky.It's probably just too hard for you, scrub.
>>344299058
Stop playing dense
>>344298880
Oh, right, that's a legitimate criticism I suppose.
>>344298836
What's wrong with that? The japanese are pretty talented at making gorgeous/cool character designs.
>>344298925
How can you not know what "mangaka" is? Have you not watched anime/read manga?
>>344298950
She literally tells you to leave the fighting behind several times before you get to make the choice, how the fuck are you this fucking retarded?
>>344299368
non-retarded games don't make you start over just for some lazy secret ending
especially a boss rush game
>>344299368
>What's wrong with that? The japanese are pretty talented at making gorgeous/cool character designs.
Are you 16?
>>344299216
>Doesn't care about finishing the game
>Complaining about the game ending the way it did
Ok
>>344299614
It's perfectly reasonable that the game ended at that point and that you'd have to it all over, it would just not make fucking sense otherwise.
I cannot even comprehend your logic.
>>344298297
What? I feel like the game let me play literally however I wanted to, up until the final bossesbecause Edge was melee only and Star was blaster only.
There's a shit ton of opportunities to use every attack that you want. You can charge up your sword/blaster and are allowed to dodge while still holding the charge, so instead of blocking/dodging an entire enemy combo and then attacking them, you charge up, dodge/block the combo, and then unleash the charge. You can choose to either be dodge focused and be incredibly mobile, or block focused and rebound attacks towards the bosses while simultaneously healing up. You can use normal bullets to destroy boss bullets, or you can sacrifice mobility and charge a shot to destroy a pack of bullets.
In fact, I've seen a lot of videos where people are really blaster heavy while I'm really melee heavy, and it just goes to show there's a lot of opportunities to do both.
>>344299170
Ok. How do you do it then? If it's possible then there should be a surefire method to pull this off, and videos somewhere of people crushing bosses by exploiting this. Links please?
>>344299915
I wish I had saved the footage of me dashing and charge blasting for an honest minute while the boss just flickered around the screen. It felt so cheap and forced to me. It was like the game was broken.
>>344300369
nah, you can break the game when fighting the Hand. When you he goes to do his charged ground attack he'll run away from you. If you stay close to him he will literally run forever.
>>344299872
>it would just not make fucking sense otherwise.
Who cares if it makes sense it's fucking boss rush
Just give the option to reload a save just before that point for those who want
>Tired, late at night
>get to boss 5, get killed
>decide it's a good time to get some sleep
>Main Menu
>"If you return to the main menu, your progress will be lost. Are you sure you want to return to the main menu?"
