What if Rising 2 becomes DMC 2?
I don't even know what that means
It could be, but Platinum actually know what they're doing when it comes to character action.

True, I won't get hype though at least not yet.

Just found out about Rising 2
Really hope it would take place in alternate universe starring Gray Fox. (Definitely not happening)
Platinum for ZOE 3 after Rising 2 pls ;_;

Nintendo is a much larger company though, it's hardly a similar comparison.
Well I'm not really worried about Platinum as much as I'm worried about Kojima and Platinum working together. I trust them both enough separately which means I have no real reason to doubt them as a working team. Yet I feel like RISING was a fluke that came out of a messy and broken project and that it could have just been a case of it turning out really good because no one had the time to really think too hard about it.
A case of less being more.
I really hope they have more time for this one. A easy way of switch weapons
or actually good boss weapons
Any flaws Rising had were the result of a gimped development time and from having to salvage what was left from what the original game was supposed to be. If Platinum are working on this from the start and are given a decent amount of time with it then I see no reason as to why this game wouldn't be amazing.

That would be nice, mix weapon combos would be amazing.

They've never made a mechanically bad game, but their sales are lackluster.
I want them to continue making great games, but it's only a matter of time that they need to have a super monster hit again to stay alive.

MGR 2?

Their highest selling title is MGR, and people still keep coming for them for work.
They will be fine.
I want to say they didn't have weapon switch on a button in the first due to RAM issues, but I might be dumb. It would be stupid if we didn't get the ability with it being on newer consoles.
I assumed Dear Esther because video games, but that's cool too.
I'm tired, but did my daily Gintama. Not Dio is cool and I hope he gets cooler or more scumbagy.
As long as they can keep tricking publishers into giving them money for random projects then I'll be fine.
I hope so, if Platinum ever die for good then I'm not sure what to live for anymore.

There's only so many publishers for them to do business with, so I hope you're right.

Didn't they make an rpg that was pretty bad?
The first major Takasugi arc is the Benizakura one, first real "This shit has gotten too real" part of Gintama, he pops up throughout the series, he's a long term planning kind of guy, the current/most recent manga arc was very heavily about him, so you won't be disappointed.
Hopefully, if MGR2 sells as well, Konami will always have their back.
They made an RPG but I have no idea if it was bad or not.

I know you mean well, but are you sure you want Komani backing Platinum?
Nope, absolutely not but I'm just hoping they stay closer to Kojima than those other guys.

How do you know that?
I mean, 171 employees is fairly small-midsized, but we're not certain how many staffed employees or vendors that involves.
I've always heard that Infinite Space was barely even worked on by them. It was mostly done by a company called Nude Maker.
Have you seen the Korra game? It's not that far-fetched to believe they work for cheap.

Well, Activision went to them, for a cheap budget title.

I feel better buying Bayo 2 new then. They deserve every bit of support thrown at them.
Sometimes they even give them a sleeping bag for each new project.

They only get a new sleeping bag if they the game they release sells 1M copies or more, new employees don't even get a sleeping bag, they all just huddle in the break room in a corner for warmth.

I don't like the parry system works in MGR. The parry button is the same with the attack button. Just simply use left thumbstick and press square for the entire of the game and you could pass through the campaign pretty easily.
They should've put circle button for parrying, it's heavily underused in the game.

Waking up to Revengeance 2 being teased. Thank you god platinum and lord Kojima.

Now that you mention it, what is circle used for? Other than zandatsu, if memory serves.
You're right. Mario sucks too. I got through those games with only the jump button. What the fuck Nintendo? At least assign different jump heights to different buttons.
At least that is what you're sounding like to me right now. I see no problem with making a good gameplay choice of having parry on the same button as attack. Attack and when you're being attacked you don't need to switch buttons. You just parry it immediately. There's not really a good reason to put it on B.
The manual just says action button. So Zandatsus, QTEs, and other junk.
Stealth kills. But that's it I think.

Having it be the same button as attack made the game way easier though. It really woulda been better to have parry be a separate button.
Edit: Maybe not better, but at least a little more challenging.

Right now, if it meant being in the same company as Kamiya and Inaba, I'd gladly sleep in my cubicle so that I could learn their development methodologies.

Circle is used when you're passing a security door and stabbing the enemy from behind.
That's it.
Oh and probably qte for finishing move for bossfight
It's the action button, it's used for context sensitive things. It didn't need a combat use.
Moving my finger over to hit B instead of X for parries isn't more challenging. It's like a tiny speedbump every 20 feet on a highway. I could obviously get use to it if it was the default from the beginning, but it's not like the game is actually any harder for any good reason. All you did was make it .1 second longer for me to prepare a parry.
It's fine if you wanted B to be some other cool combat action since it's only used for context sensitive things, but I see little point of moving the parry to it.
Might as well just give Raiden lightning shurikens on B so he can use it as a really shitty Ebony and Ivory.

I don't mean b specifically. Another button in gemeral, or a different combo. Just something other than forward and attack.
I know you're joking but that sounds sick.

Might as well? Yo I'd be down for this.
If it would allow me to continue combos from enemy to enemy, I'd be so hype for it.

So I'm curious if any of you have seen the double down dog yet. It looks like hot death.

bad gameplay lol
People freak out over things like this and yet, when you think about it, it's not really bad at all. It's a fried chicken patty and a hot dog. People eat more/worse than that in one sitting at your average family gathering (especially something like a BBQ).
Now I'm just imagining Bayo's butt with a pair of glasses

True enough I suppose. Still, I think it's funny that someone at kfc thought to themselves 'we need to make this real'. Like who thinks of shit like that?
