Pfft, pretenders.

I was exalting Knack's virtues from day one.

Know all I see are pretenders and sycophants jumping on the bandwagon.

Disgusting.

 

[Hazelhurst]

I love him. Looking forward to many sequels hopefully.

 

[Verendus]

Still can't believe I paid $60 for that game.

Should've been $120. So good.

My man.

 

[Atlas157]

Side note: did Verendus rope in many with his knack avatar bet?lol

Yes.

soo good.

I mean god damn

 

[DidntKnowJack]

You can't fool me. You have to wear a knack avatar because you lost a bet and now you're trying to convince everyone that knack is awesome in order to save face!

Spoiler

Well done.

I'm not sure if this thread is about worshiping Knack the game or character.

So I just remembered I'm shit at photoshop.

Fear of a Knack Planet

 

[Savantcore]

I played and beat it twice due to lack of anything else to play mostly for trophies. Shelved it last Christmas and haven't picked it up since.

I'll give you $10.

 

[Majestad]

Ugliest, dumbest character design of all time.

 

[OverBlood 3]

Let's get kNAcKED

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I still hold hope he is a boss in Bloodborne.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I feel like Starting up Knack again.... The only thing I don't like about Knack is the Co-Op, the game didn't need it.

 

[Gamesgbkiller]

Of course.

LOL

Good job!

 

[Caronte]

For some reason this was 30€ on Amazon.es for weeks and now it's back to 54€ even when Second Son and Killzone are still selling for 30€. The thirst for Knack is real.

 

[Mengetsu]

Holy shit! Im dying! Also because of this Knack love! Great game!

This thread is like the worst fever dream.

 

[Apdiddy]

I thoroughly loved this game so much....enough to get a Platinum. Except for the diamond drops, this game is a lot of fun and I enjoyed every second of it. The whole game felt like a Pixar movie.

Part of me hopes that in Knack 2 there's a top down shmup section with Dr Vargas' plane. I would also

Spoiler

love to play as Ryder too and have Knack, Dr Vargas, Lucas & Ryder in four player co op mode and they each have their own abilities and relics do different things for them as well.

And not to make Bayonetta comparisons, but I hope they recast the game as a virtual homage to every Sony-made PlayStation game.

 

[OléGunner]

Yes.

Holy fuck lmao...man I totally forgot about those bets. So many couldn't resist.

Glorious to see all those gaffers get knackified!

 

[Interceptor]

All hail the new Turtles movie!

 

[JStein0222]

Knack is the hero gaf deserves

 

[Frumix]

Knack it off.

 

[biglittleps]

Game was not great but a good game for me. I liked it and i hope sequel to overcome the problems it had with open world and free combat with diversity.

 

[Stereogatari]

I'd love him if his game was an actual platformer and not GoW for toddlers.

This thread is reminding me of communism, double decker tablets of ecstacy and that scary part of the basement at my old junior high school.

This will be out on PLUS next month, right?

 

[Noobcraft]

The problem with Knack is that it's almost too good.

 

[gofreak]

I saw Knack running on the screen in the window of CEX on a busy Dublin street last week. Next to a screen running something Frozen related or the like.

Cultural icons, tbh.

 

[Anteater]

i watched my friend played on stream and he got his ass kicked repeatedly, it actually looks fun.

 

[Verendus]

Notice how Knack is so chill, yet Crash has this expression of, "Hehe, guys. Remember me...uh...guys..."

Obviously Crash isn't saying that since this is just a picture, but even if he was, someone would just scream at him to shut the hell up.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

There's your Crash Reboot everyone.

 

[Frillen]

this makes me sad.

Good thing it's not true.

Anyway, Knack is way better than the metacritic. I don't know why reviewers went against this title as much as they did. A solid 7.5/10 game.

 

[Certinty]

Awesome game. Honestly one of the most enjoyable PS4 games I've played. Considering how cheap it is I would recommend it to anyone who likes platformers, also I would play it on hard since it makes it much more enjoyable.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Knack has a better story

And a better framerate?

 

[petghost]

This knack train is bound for glory y'all. Go ahead and jump on.

 

[Dodecagon]

The coop buddy knick is better to be honest

 

[Hazelhurst]

The whole game felt like a Pixar movie.

Yeah, that's how I felt as well. It felt like a Pixar world.

Japan is so blessed that every copy of Knack there is bundled with a ps4.

I really ended up liking Knack and my 4 year old loves him and will still ask to play it a year later. I definitely agree with the detractors that it was a bit shallow but what was there was fun enough. I feel like its most damning problem was that the vast majority of people here and media wrote it off as a joke long before it was ever playable. I never got the feeling that it was trying to sell itself off as some amazing breakthrough of a game, just something that was on the shelf that was appropriate for all audiences. I'd play a sequel with more fleshed out mechanics and features.

EDIT: I will say I don't think his voice matches the character at all.

 

[JStein0222]

So they can sell it and buy more copies of Knack?

It actually didn´t outsell SM3DW worldwide.

It outsold it during 1 week in the UK. Thats it.

 

[Interceptor]

Damn, it outsold my fav. Now i'm feeling some type of way.

Yeah. On monday between 11 and 12. (I am exaggerating but you get the point.)

 

[Yazuka]

I too enjoyed Knack.
