It's a choice. Those Japanese anime fighters are not accessible, and when you're making a Superman and Batman game you want to be accessible.

Android Blues posted:Yeah mechanically I don't think NRS is particularly accessible. Every character keying off a series of command normals that have to be cancelled into ground bounces and OTGs to combo is actually pretty up there in terms of complexity. You can beat the story without doing any of that. Playing that way will get you 2 or 3 fights into a ladder in other games.

Calaveron posted:Are the traits unbalanced? Batman's seems to be three quick weak free hits that vanish if you so much as get bumped into while Superman's appears to be a power boost that lasts loving forever Those weak damage traits are usually meant to extend combos. So the little bots don't do much but if you know your Batman they let you combo harder.

It's a bit odd how they've just opened the X-Men cage on mobile games, and MvC and Lego Marvel 2 are both mutant-less. Must have only been a recent decision.

thebardyspoon posted:Trailer was cool, made me hopeful that this'll be the Spiderman take on the Arkham games, where they just set it in an established world where Spidey has been Spidey for awhile, they can just use a bunch of his villains and make a drat good Spiderman game. Only thing I don't like is the costume, feel like the Spiderman costume has remained largely unchanged for a reason. They actually already did that with the last Spider-Man game. It was pretty good. (The current Spider-Man costume in the comics is a neon mess incidentally.)

Just to put it into perspective, Champions Online works off a character@username system, where only the latter part needs to be unique and isn't displayed above your head. So every Deathiroth4 in the game chose that, they weren't forced to. Champions started its life as a Marvel game though so basically every Marvel character is in the forbidden names list (even incredibly obscure ones) but they didn't bother to block anything but the major DC characters. Superman no, Superboy sure.

Waffleman_ posted:I think they were saying that because Batman doesn't know who the guy is in the game, being his early adventures, so he goes by John Doe for most of it. They're assuming you'll get it's Joker by context. They're not assuming anything, the article says he's Joker but they're doing their own Joker origin story. That's why it's in quotation marks.

I said good successful. They have successes, but they're not good. Yes I mean Monster Hunter is bad. Fight me. I'll be in 2017 while you're still doing janky rear end 2003 animations and have to resort to invincibility frames.

All it took last time was one fat man and one little boy. I'm neither but I figure I have at least the combat prowess of a small child. You better bulk up.

thebardyspoon posted:There was regular moment to moment combat and movement in the E3 trailer. Unless you count "pressing buttons to do anything in a game" as a QTE I guess. Do agree that the actual chase part was way too QTE heavy and way too long though. I mean, there's only so much you can do with a boss fight with a helicopter I guess. I would imagine the boss fights against actual people are less like that.

Samuringa posted:78.1% of players finished the first chapter of TWD; 37.1% finished the last. That's a 40% drop on a game where all you do is click on choices, it's no surprise someone might not beat the first boss of DS3. In that specific example, I think the first chapter has been offered for a free a few times.

You can just scoot around looking for trouble, random stuff will pop up you can do, plus missions that you can do whenever you want. This is what the trailer for Anthem looked like but I’m sure it’ll be disappointing.
