Is pig's blood a normal thing in makeup because it seems really weird to me that his go-to would be pig's blood and then bricking himself in the face instead of just getting a makeup artist

Who needs makeup when you have the real thing!

I wish the game showed the combo inputs on the move list, PAUL can do some sick nasty boxing combos.

People have been criticizing the move list for a while, it's pretty crappy.

I hope they fix that soon. I was a bit confused at first when I saw the move list. It's like ok did it replace my regular punch or..

I hope so too, someone posted a really nice suggestion for a better move list format on the backer forums.

Are you talking about bad Capcom fighters? That's a totally different kind of combo.

RCRU has a bit of both. There are moves that only come out when you hit buttons in a specific order, these are the preset combos we're discussing. They're an expansion of the basic 1-2-3 knockdown mechanics of old beat-em-ups like the original RCR or Final Fight, and function like the combos in games like Ninja Gaiden and Bayonetta. But you can also create your own combos in the game by linking specials and normal attacks and juggling.

I don't like fighting game-style combos mostly because I've never been able to get the timing down correctly, especially if it also involves combining directional inputs more complex than holding a direction and pressing a button at the same time.

Not by coincidence, one of my favorite combo systems ever is the one from God Hand where you have one simple combo combo string from mashing the attack button and then a few special moves based on specific buttons but every single one of them can be assigned a specific move.

If you were making a game that was already a spiritual sequel to your favorite game ever and someone said "Hey you can get the license and make it official", wouldn't you be interested?

No, but I've been cynical enough on the topic so I'll keep my opinion of buying the license to myself :v:

update: Wild breathing on Wii U look fantastic, although bafflingly the gamepad screen is used for nothing, all it does is glow a "Tap here to play on the gamepad" message.
I guess it's nice that you don't need it because you can use a pro controller instead? But considering that the ports of the other Zelda games have let you use it for inverntory and stuff, it's really loving weird to leave it out on the game made specifically for the Wii U.

I guess they really just wanted to make sure there were no significant differences whatsoever between the two versions.

I'm tempted but I managed to pre order it months ago for £10 less than its going for everywhere now and it's not like I'm short of games to play atm.

E: though I just realised it's entirety possible that's why Amazon stiffed me lol

At this point there are more people upset at the lack of lower review scores and salty fanboys to cry about said reviews than there are...well salty fanboys crying about low review scores.

To the point that you can't tell if someone is unironically saying that Big Nintendo is paying off all the mainstream reviewers and once the game gets into the hands of real gamers the truth will be known or if it's just a jape.

pig's blood usually comes congealed so you would probably have to put it in a blender or something to get it to flow again
