valdis story has a lot of good things going for it, the hit-stun is wildly annoying though and the combat will probably seem awkward until you get at least one of those scrolls that lets you cancel/dash

Games have to look good/have a good UI for me to really like them.. and that game looks like some turds from my rear end

It looks drab sure but it's fun to move around and shoot in. Some surprising cool spins on classic Metroidvania upgrades, and by the end of it you're a nuclear equipped mecha blasting around ag super sonic speeds. I liked it enough to beat it in one sitting and I would play it again someday if I still owned it

After your GF gets kidnapped you can turn around and get back in your truck and the guy says Eh plenty more fish in the sea and the game ends.

everything about this game is very odd and sketchy feeling. story is super goofy and idk if i like it or not yet

it was an early Xbox Live Arcade release so its in that weird middle space of being a lower-budget game that isnt really indie. its cool that they made it as good as it is

the outside areas honestly look good, very pretty. theres just a lot of bizarre little design choices but ill chalk that up to the low budget, the world is fun to explore. i wish i took a screenshot but after you complete the tutorial area and get some basic upgrades, there's a little pop-up that reads "hey, before moving on go back and see if you can find 2 health upgrade, 2 ammo upgrades and a key piece with your new stuff!" and i did the picard facepalm

i remember thinking it was really cool how well they mixed wide open outdoor segments with the really structured facility exploration. i mean its basically just a row of rooms on the top of the map but its still a good feeling when you get out on the surface and access new areas from there

a shadow conspiracy of evil liberals are planning to start a second american civil war, starting by assassinating the vice president, kidnapping your girlfriend, and then destroying san francisco with a flying aircraft carrier armed with nuclear missiles. you blow up the carrier and save your girlfriend, who was a NSA spy all along. later, the liberals assassinate the president and start a civil war anyway.

lesbian baphomet posted:what was bad about the grading? I dont remember it actually giving a bonus reward, just achievements you get some pretty major benefits for A or S ranking bosses, like bonus levels or ability points and the like. it's not a big enough difference to keep you from beating the game or anything, but you'll be significantly weaker if you don't aim for the higher ranks

in retrospect, then, i am glad i started going for no-hit S-ranks after the second or third boss

elf help book posted:literally an alternate version of you was the bad guy all along It's actually a bit less cut and dry. The PC is an old backup of Athetos but it's not clear that Athetos was actually the villain. I enjoyed Axiom Verge and there's probably going to be a sequel, but ESA was a better game from a hidden stuff standpoint. Way too many pointless weapons and stuff. I love Valdis Story though. The boss rankings are important, but the boss fights are also pretty much the highlight of the game. While the first couple can be frustrating once you get used to the controls I find it to be a very enjoyable challenge.
