Same here. I can't even see some of that stuff being possible using the touch screen. I always felt like they were pushing the morphs to be touch-screen oriented, so that's how I played the demo mainly, but it seems like right stick is definitely the way to go. What a difference. Though of course it's very possible I just suck.

After watching the Saur video, it kinda makes me think about what might have happened if say, a lot of people had gone into Skate without quite knowing how to use the flick-it system properly.
Maybe the touch screen is throwing folks off; this seems like a Kamiya attempt to evolve the rudimentary Okami system into something a lot more robust. While I can understand the physical technique required with drawing the glyphs being awkward for some people, it seems there's a largely skill-based trajectory to this game system. There's already enough examples of people getting good at this in short order.
Honestly, I cannot criticize it for trying something truly different because Platinum is covering both bases here. Bayonetta 2 is apparently going to be as conventional as expected for the genre, while this game freely goes out on a limb.

Finally tried the demo at a friend's house. I don't think I've ever gone from "holy shit, finally" to "what the hell jaggies, what the fuck is with these controls, omg, one button for attacks, are you serious" to "oh hey, ok, I guess this makes sense and feels ok after all" in the course of 15 minutes before. Once I got used to using the right stick to do the double team attack or whatever, I really got into a nice groove.
Hope this does well

Hmm is there a way to put out fire? In the first mission (the demo one)
Edit: Nevermind, figured out how to get up.
I found a burning building with people on top but have no idea how to get up there.

My god this video has shattered my perception of reality. Everything I know is a lie.
Incidentally, Saur is the reason I bought God Hand back when it first came out. For that reason I will forever love that man.
I've been meaning to post this for a while so here it is.
For the longest time I thought the joke was involving the buttocks thread or the steam thread. I didn't bother to read the numbers.

Wow, this game has techniques dripping out its buttcheeks. It's only going to get more layered when the unlockable moves are taken into account.

Saur sure is good at making this game look like a piece of cake.
Living in NA is causing me a lot of suffering right about now.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.

Depends on your skill level and if you're experienced in character action games. But I can see a lot of people throwing gamepads left and right.
Is it possible to change difficulties mid game? If so I might start on Normal, but if it got too hard I'd turn down the difficulty.

Yes. They talked about this specific feature in the Iwata Asks.

Multi unite morph is the best thing they added in the game. So much depth.

I don't plan on making jokey first posts ever again, so I should be safe.
Btw, the Platinum trailer spoiled the whole game up until whatever the very end is like. Just like Bayonetta did.
People actuality doubted the obviously superior stick? The stick is awesome, precise and quick. How can you play a game like this, take your hand of the right side of the controller and fumble about with the screen?! Even Kamiya prefers the stick. Give it up screen, your time is over!!!

And to think they just added it in back in May.....I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad it got delayed.

So has anyone found out what the secret final difficulty mode is called? Or is Hard the hardest it gets? I'm waiting for the name that tops Non Stop Infinite Climax.

He's not using Multi-Unite Morph in those gifs
not that I disagree
Probably will take a few days.
Most people are just getting their hands on the game now. and the people that did get the game ahead of street date are just finishing their first playthroughs.

I was playing the demo with a friend last week and teaching him all the mechanics and controls for the game in co-op. Completely forget to tell him about multi unites. Oh well, next time.
I'll be starting on hardest difficulty after finishing the demo like that my last 5 boots. Unfortunately my 20 boots are up, time to buy the game asap! And yeah, the game can be very complex and you sort of have to master the different unites (multis) and morphs to progress.
Hopefully there's a really crazy expanded challenge mode in the full game. And for the record casual play doesn't even seem to require the touchscreen, just the right stick to draw the shapes.

For all you pricks that already get to play the game, I have a question:
I know that while you seem to be able to level up the "other select heroes" you find during the game, they don't really change the gameplay too much as they are kind of like clones and share the same types of Unite Morphs as the main heroes.
My question is...do their Unite Morphs look exactly like the main heroes(possibly with a different color) or do they look slightly different in aesthetics???

Btw for those wondering, once you completed the story mode, you can play again on a higher difficulty setting and keep everything you bought/collected. This includes heroes, of course. Personally I didn't get enough money to buy everything in my first playthrough.
You also unlock many things, accessible from the main menu, including Member Files (what you get when you recruit a random hero), Enemy Files, HQ Models Gallery (for main characters only), Sound Test and an awesome Artwork Gallery :3
Also I hate your username, the song gets stuck in my head everytime you post >(

Exact same thing, they have different weapons though but you obviously can't see them. It's a shame but that was to be expected. I still love my Wonder Yeti though.

*scans old thread for ViewtifulJC replies*
I kid, and I agree, it's rather lame. It is interesting to get a general impression of how the general impression of the game has changed over the year though. But there's no need for naming and shaming.
