Idk, that one
crystal cavern whatever
What percentage of the Korra fanbase are children? Anyone know?
I imagine a lot of Korra fans like myself are the teens/kids that watched ATLA years ago. This just might be their first character action game.

Yo BestFriendVania is my favorite office building in the Zaibatsu. Matt and Liam are actually super cool friends(Their S-Link must be maxed out) and everything is so natural. If someone has a link to the European concert Matt is talking about please share.
I'm watching the GT Retrospective now and as an owner of Castlevania: Bloodlines I am glad they praise it for being amazing in what it accomplished for the series, it made the entire series' ties with Bram Stroker's Dracula concrete as fuck and led to Symphony of Night since the game is mostly the work of the 32x/SEGA CD sequel that never was released. Woolie owes his life to the Genesis when you really think about it.

I have a lot of nephews and nieces now as well as people I know having younger siblings around that age and none of them are remotely interested in difficult games. My 4 year old nephew stopped played Kirby Air Ride for a few seconds and stopped because it was too hard. The other 4 year old nephew played DMC4 for an hour and a half, but he pretty much just mashed A the whole time then stopped playing when he died because it was too hard.
Kids are different today, there are exceptions, but for the most part these little shits have no patience.
I know you!
No idea, but I know the show still retains some of the ATLA fanbase who are now in high school/college.
I stopped playing ages ago, and not because I wasn't enjoying myself. I just got distracted with something else. I don't even remember.
And that's perfectly okay. Everyone starts somewhere. Why not Korra?
Could be, but there's also simply a larger contingent of people/kids in general playing games. There are also simply more options and alternatives available to these people. I guess I'm trying to say that despite your anecdotal evidence of kids being impatient, there might be a fair portion of the now enlarged consumer base that has a tolerance for difficulty.
4 is also pretty young. Somewhere in the range of 9-12 is where I feel they actually learn shit.

Probably the percentage that isn't on the internet and wouldn't know what Platinum is. So, like, 2%.

Your typical COD/Madden player wouldn't be interested in Korra stuff anyway.
Those reviews tho. It seems like people just got done playing Bayo2, jumped into Korra and were surprised it wasn't Bayo2.5.
I heard a story of a dude that let his very young relative play Dark Souls for a bit before the kid asks if there was a way to pay money to skip a section "like in the app store".
BTW, is your album art Deathgrips?
I think it more has to do with general jank and lack of flow and looks. Perhaps they should have made it a hardrawn 2d game with great combat and systems...though that might be a little hard.
If you look at the Nartuo games they aren't that complex. (I do think their is enough depth that it's not just random mashing buttons, but to get the basic core game down it will probably take you about 10 matches over all,) But they got the style, animation, content and fanservice to make up for it.
It really doesn't help that your first playthough of the game is going to feel gimped as hell compared to other action games.

Revengeance was my first character action game and I loved it. Hopefully it does the same for people that love the show but have never played a Platinum game before.

City Trial is the best game mode ever. That game should have been City Trial The Game.

I think that was a green text story, but I can't seem to find it.
The time I spent in that volcano and in that underground garage, man. I was like 9 or 10 I think when I played that game, so fun.

Same. It sent me on a quest to play Bayo, DMC1, DMC3, most of DMC4, and Vanquish. Revengeance and DMC3 are some of my favorite games ever now.
Oh yeah totally. Hearing Liam gush about Kirby's Air Ride always brings a big smile to my face. I had to play it by myself as a kid, but I still loved it.

Ah I see. You might have to start over depending on how out of the game you got.
Oh god why'd you remind me of that. It's like that fucking BUSINESS MAN that said "it'd be good to pay more to have mario jump higher"

My favorite.
Is it ironic that the image doesn't show?
I fully expect to. It's been years. I can't jump right back into that, especially considering how unique the gameplay is.

That Korra thread.
It's like people expect it to have the same budget as this game.

No people, it's a 15$ game for the fans that has a few flaws with it.

I have alot of games in my backlog too but I imagine this game is gonna be super short so it doesn't bother me
My backlog is so massive I'm drowning, and sometimes I make it wait for new stuff, or replay things. It's never gonna be finished.
It contains anime, games, and regular TV shows and movies. Dear lord.
