It's also an action game , so if there is repeat playthroughs, I'd expect bosses have new moves, harder enemy layouts etc.

Hmm holding off for now for more impressions. Might just get Horizon with the HK money.

quality repeated thrice = quantity =/= quality
I really hated how you aim by the right analog stick , I was hoping they fix it

I admit that I'm not really following the game besides having watched a couple of trailers and gameplay footage and played the demo.
But honestly it's the first time I heard about the different paths and endings here. And even then I find the length a bit disappointing, tbh.

Did you already collect all the required items? Also don't forget to exit the game and re-open it.

I really want everyone to know how much more Titanfall 2 sold than Nioh. It was a staggering amount.
SE should release this game on Windows now, bug solution sounds classic Windows
Lmao

If you started playing the game while still downloading, I'm afraid you have to close the game then wait for it to finish downloading. Then start New Game. It's a glitch.

Need an OT rule : Don't talk about shit you don't understand.
False advice from first time importers, and talking shit about "endings" you know nothing about.

Damn...
No? Repetition doesn't make something inherently bad. Par for the course with an RPG, especially. This just doesn't do it in the form of battles for sixty hours.

If this was Dark Souls messaging I would be overflowing with Humanity.

I'd say 15-20h for Ending A.
You should at least play through Ending B. Really. You'll understand when you do it.

Like 20 hours for ending A/B. 16~ hours for ending A for me. Just YouTube C/D.

How buggy is the game? Maybe importers can do beta testing for the rest of us western peasants who need to wait 2 weeks until release
hmm, is it obvious when the game splits to different paths? I was just going to youtube the others
Or do you have to play them one after the other?

It was like 10-12 hours to Ending A, maybe 3-4 more to Ending B, then C and D on Youtube for me. I didn't do any side stuff after trying out the first couple of side quests, though, and I bumped the difficulty down to Easy about halfway through because I just didn't enjoy the gameplay at all.

That's not how these games work. They aren't paths.
I don't wanna spoil it for you, but it's something only video games can do.

Endings A, B and
achieved after 21 hours on Hard mode.

Would you give a impression or score after clear all?
Amazon JP already drop to 3.0/5, really hope it git gud

It's really good. The A and B runs are what is going to turn people off. Stick with it, though. It gets wild.
But yes, I can go more in-depth later.
Interesting.
And yet no fucking impressions. BASTARD!
Anyway, I'll be playing this afternoon work, so I guess the lack of really impressions here doesn't matter. Looking forward to it.

I'm new to GAF. What's expected from me? Like a review, spoilers... no spoilers? Technical gameplay mechanics?
I find it to be very favourable if that's what you guys are wondering. I'm in love with the game.
How much difference is there between a playthrough A and a playthrough B though? Because Silent Hill 2 is, like, a 6-7 hours game, but i wouldn't say it's a 40 hours game, just because it's got a ton of endings.
The path to get to those endings is just what you already played with slight variations.
That's what i'd like to understand.

What's the deal with the late release in the west when the asia version features english voice and text?

took the cheapest logistic option because SE could care less about shipping the game.

Nothing is expected from you, we are just very thirsty of any in-detail impressions, simply because reviews are going to come out with the western release, and there's already many with the game in their hands.
Just how you felt it about the game, in details if possible.
In case you want some points to start from lol
Did you have fun with it (it seems you did)?
Was the combat system deep, do you get many options to suit your playstyle?
Are side quests the usual fetch quests, or are there some that stands out (wether for particular mechanics or story beats)?
Do you like the characters? You think the game has a great story with strong themes?
Has it reached any emotional heights that resonated with you?
Any unexpected genius moments?

The least spoilers the better of course.
Man no wonder if the game gets bad reviews , if no one told me this I will stop at the end of ending B

Damn son. I want to play this now.
Is it true that the pods are OP and they pretty much renders melee combat useless? That's what a lot of the JP Amazon reviewers are saying.

This pretty normal for amazon japan, just like 9/10 for every game is normal for fam
The original Nier and the Drakengards series did this sorta thing where multiple playthroughs were pretty damn important, and that game was a cult classic over there, so I'm curious as to why a lot of the reviewers don't realize they ain't done with the game when they get the first ending.
I suspect a lot of them are new to the Drakengard and Nier series, particularly since quite a few of the positive reviewers are people going "Do you even Nier fam?". This game did seem to get a lot more attention then the previous one did.
