I remember the combat being kind of a slog, but the writing and world building being very weird and interesting.

You can speed up combat animations so combat goes faster now.

Am I wrong for thinking this looks cool? I feel like I should be wrong.

2d retro action platformer, being kickstarted, by a game studio i've never heard of/has no other game credits to their name? that's a lot of warning signs, yes

also i'd almost guarantee that some of those animations/sprites are straight up ripped from shinobi 3

and maybe strider arcade?

like, yeah, but then there's also footage of it in motion and it looks fun to play

edit: that was supposed to go before your post, cowcaster, but also, that spell animation is totally a shinobi 3.

Yeah I feel like I've seen the animations somewhere else before, but I can't put my finger on it.

Definitely not Strider arcade, as a person who’s probably plunked 100 hours into it on mame.

But I’m definitely getting a Shinobi 3 feel from it, from the shading art style, the frame rate, animation, etc. I dunno about ripped but probably used as reference.

Hmm I disagree. Invading FOBs is probably the coolest and most challenging stuff in the game.

I never accepted the EULA to MGS5 and so it never asked me to do online stuff, it was great.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
That jump is pretty Strider-esque. Still, there looks like a lot of gameplay footage in the trailer so I'm gonna give this a "cautiously optimistic".

the one that's driving me nuts is that wall climbing with the hook animation. i know i've seen it somewhere!

edit: upon closer inspection he doesn't have a hook

Does it rip off the "plays like a good game" parts, because they seem to always forget that.

It feels like all this poo poo is happening way too fast to be natural, kind of like the bit in Persona 5 where the Phantom Thieves are exploding in popularity and everyone everywhere is talking about them and it turns out it was all a setup by the government to use the popularity to bait you into going after someone they planned on murdering and have you take the fall for it.

Then again, I guess everyone just really loves dem anime tiddies.
