That's not exactly glowing praise...

well in the sense that those who dont enjoy stupid humor and platformers with shooting mechanics probably wont enjoy it

To be fair, I'd say the same thing of some of my most favorite things. A thing can still be great, but not necessarily click with everyone or even most. *


* This is in no way an endorsement of Hell Yeah.

no

for $1.87 it's definitely worth it. Even 5 bucks.

I'd consider Nabs' opinion pretty important on this one. He is our resident Metroidvania enthusiast/evangelist.

The guy just can't get enough Metroidvania!

I can't go to certain places until I buy new shit in the shop. That's what I got from the demo anyway.

Also, hats!

I was just poking fun at "not for anyone" (I assume he meant to say not for everyone).

 

[YianGaruga]

I liked the Giantbomb quicklook, I found the Demo pretty funny, I liked the Metroidvania motiff, I like arkedo games, I made an oath to suppot SEGA whenever they deserve it and it cost me $1.87 with GMG credit.

This one was kinda easy to justify.

I played for about 3 hours, and I'm not sure where the Metroidvania comparison comes from. It's super linear. The only thing the game has going for it is a neat artstyle and a humor that you may (or may not) think is funny. "Combat" is boring and exploration is unrewarding.

I wish the game would just have the WarioWare like sequences and none of the boring filler. A new WarioWare-like game would be neat.

2/5. This is my review.

Ha, didn't even notice that. My brain autocorrected it.

 

[Stallion Free]

Wait, Hell Yeah is a metroidvania?!?! Just bought copies for myself and some friends.

inaccessible areas that you have to go back to once you get the proper upgrade that lets you advance

game introduces a sort of fast travel mechanic later on

So why don't many developers include instruction manuals with their games? It seems more used to and now it hardly ever happens. I'm playing through Lego Batman 2 and it's super annoying constantly coming across all these things that are apparently locked out or I don't have whatever powers or requirements but I have no idea what I do need. The game only tells you what it is if you have the ability to do so in the level, so some stuff like these golden locks are just a mystery. I also have no idea what the significance of some of these things I'm earning. Superhero? Gold Bricks? Red bricks? It seems like this is all stuff an instruction manual would cover but Warner Bros are asshats and can't even upload a PDF. This has happened with a few other games, too.

That's not the information I need. It's also not an answer to my argument. Console players get instruction manuals, so DD players should as well.

?????

pretend its wheres waldo and you have to find it on the store page.

Have you even reached that point of the game?

i know you didn't get to that tutorial till like 57 hours in but everyone else reachs it by like 2 hours and then never sees it again unless they are super shit at ass creed gameplay systems analysis.

I hope they make a Tiny Tina DLC pack where you have to steal her voice and use it for 10 hours. I hope they do that and add achievements.

 

[JaseC]

Haha, don't worry, once you have a master assassin at a den, the Templars stop attacking it.

It's already the best metroidvaniablodefense game on the market, so the next bit of Borderlands 2 DLC should focus on adding something the game desperately needs: romance.

Tina is just so funny and endearing it feels weird that you can't take the relationship further. Too bad the FUCKING FASCISTS at Valve won't let them.

JaseC just asked me for help in buying a Darksiders II guide even though he already played 80 hours of the game

intervention time?

No, breaking into his bank account and stealing all his money time.

 

[Nabs]

Hey guys, good news! You can now play L.A. Noire on Windows 8!!

I need that money for a dozen copies of Half-Life 3!

in my country the age of consent is 14 so i dont see why they wouldnt let me romance tina. valve should open their minds. and hearts.

Wow, that's SO MUCH BETTER than this:

im not defending it. im just saying it isn't rocket science to find. the amount of time you wasted screenshotting things that we all know what they look like and typing up complaints about a shit manual explaining basic game elements to you not being able to be found would have been better spent on google.

Now THAT'S a good Metroidvania. AKA Vaporware Steamware.
