A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
I realize.
Fetch is a much better character than Delsin, gameplay wise. Not to say Delsin's bad, but Sucker Punch didn't do such a good job of making his story all that interesting. And returning to a single-powered character makes me feel more unique. It's like, no one can manipulate Neon like Fetch, much like no one can manipulate electricity like Cole. Fetch is also a lot more troubled and driven by forces beyond her control. It makes for a more compelling narrative juxtaposed with her imprisonment and her relationship to Augustine and the DUP's rise to power. Now I wish the main game revolved around her and Delsin could have been the DLC.

I'm downloading now. What sold me?
The vids of the melee combat and the fact that it's not so long that I'll hit a weaker moment midway that will stop me from finishing it.

I guess they only show off one area/objective. Jeff is also talking/playing so he doesn't do so well at them. I'm just not a fan of those types of things so I'll skip for now.

Just got a bit in. Man oh man do I like it. It's like Second Son with all the fat trimmed. And it's got Photo Mode/30fps limiter/all the post-patch goodies Second Son got (unless it doesn't have weather mode?)
I like Fetch a lot, probably more than Delsin (and I liked him). Definitely like both their stories, though. It'd be cool if you could switch between them in the sequel. Shoot Eugene.
Man oh man, they took Neon traversal and Deus Ex Machina'd it into some crazy Sonic shit. I thought it was fast in Second Son, but oh christ.
Wait, that doofus and Reggie are the same dude? That's doubly hilarious then, since I think they're married

The battle arena (the stage) is complete shit. So fucking frustrating to move around swiftly.

I much preferred Second Son's gameplay AND story...hell, the whole campaign. But Fetch's Quest was entertaining nonetheless. The REAL gold is in the arena modes, though. Having a BLAST score chasing in that! Helluva challenge too. My hands ache from using that whole damn controller, needing reflexes and situational awareness...what a gem.
I do miss Delsin, though. Well...not THAT much. Taking him into the arenas is a chore since I am so used to controlling Fetch now lol...After I plat, I'm gonna roll with Del and see what kinda scores I can cook up once I get used to his controls/powers again.
Idunno how all of you are so into Fetch. She's cool and all but I'm just not a huge fan.

Hmmmm!
You may have it, I too replaced the flaky sticks (early in the year)
But this is the only part where the touchpad fails. I'm going open it tomorrow and check it out again.
Mmmmmm. Can Sucker Punch just make 2 or 3 of these short story games a year instead of big releases once every 3? We'd get to see much more condensed and emotional stories, a wider range of a deeper moveset of powers. They'd get more money from us. I'm not so hot for Eugene but I'd buy another $15 5 hour game all about him and his powers.

Was thinking the same thing. I love both this and second son, but this has probably been more enjoyable. Id like a DLC with hank instead of Eugene, but hell id buy both if they did make em.
You guys didn't properly reconnect the flat ribbon cable of the touch pad. The pressing stuff works but not any of the touch stuff.
Make sure to put it in and flip the clip over that holds it in its place.
You can see the cable I'm talking about in this video at 1:31

It's a prequel story set two years before Second Son, so no.
It's enjoyable though. Fetch is awesome <3.
Ah, that's too bad. Was hoping for some sort of secret ending hinting at the future direction of this series.

Aside from the arenas there is still 3-4 hours of classic Infamous gameplay in Seattle, if that interests you.

I remember her saying that but, at the same time i'm from jersey (central) and we/I don't talk like that(or at least i dont think i do lol). Must be a northern, border line Pennsylvania, or new york accent
You can only wear it in the battle arenas.

Cool, thanks. I think I might wait for a sale.
If I'm lucky they'll discount/bundle this along with SS so I can pick both up down the line.
the game looks good.

So is it worth it to trade in the terrible KZ shadow Fall for this Addon?

The campaign was pretty entertaining, but not as much as the main game's, eventhough I did like Fetch's neon powers, the traversal speed, getting the collectibles, and the short escort missions. I just didn't find the arena that enjoyable to play. Getting 250,000 points was painstaking enough, let alone double of that. It's all too easy to end up with too many enemies to handle due to the frequency of the waves, and the layout of the arenas. A lower score limit for the trophies would have been better. That's what I don't like about this DLC, and the same goes for Resogun's Heroes add-on, as getting the trophies shouldn't be that much harder than it's in the main game. It looks like both of the DLCs will remain uncompleted for me, but I'll try if it becomes more feasible after maxing out all the powers.
EDIT: The positive side is that Fetch doesn't get interrupted as easily as Delsin did in the main game, when recharging the powers in the arena. That's what I found annoying in the main game, especially during the boss battles.
EDIT.2: It took me over half an hour to reach 250,000 in the alpha survival. Towards the end there was just too many enemies chasing my tail.

So has anyone figured out a way to change Delsin's outfit? My Add-Ons section has all the DLC outfits from SS but as far as I can tell there's no way to select them in-game.
Edit: oh jeez, just read the posts about people accidentally unplugging their trackpad while modding. Keep in mind that there's a ribbon on the inside of the trackpad as well, so if the one connecting to the rest of the controller is still connected, then the one on the inside is probably the culprit.

I'd say yes.

Cannot get my Fetch DUP costume to work. Any fixes?

Insane For Sony
Is it normal that I spent 5 minutes watching the title screen of this? It looks amazing design-wise.
They sucked in the main game too. Not my idea of fun side content. The insane amount of collectibles rivaled the AC games in this one. At least they were more fun to collect.
Well that explains it, thanks
But I enjoyed the whole use the controller as a can thing in second son, but is just annoying on this one

Man, these side missions are garbage. And the story missions aren't much better.
I was hoping for a bit of an improvement over SS in this regard. Not a step backwards.

yeah you could actually hold the controller like a can and shake it to make rattling sounds
fun atleast a littlebit even if the whole stencil thing was quite dumbed down and automated. Should have offered a "free paint" mode too.the laser tags with Fetch could have been more entertaining if you could draw anything you want on walls.
