Alright, the announcement confirming fps only completely killed this game's chance at having actual good gameplay. However, I know how this game can be saved, Paradox better be taking notes here.
Make the gameplay third person with action combat. Obviously as amazing as DMC's gameplay is, you can't just slap that into the game, since all the insane air juggling combo stuff wouldn't fit the setting as well as it does DMC and similar japanese games. Here's how it will work:
- Take the basic combat from this gameplay demo youtube.com
You can have some air combat stuff but keep it limited, no long air combos but have dynamic ways of doing air stuff, such as launching an enemy, doing a few hits, leaping backwards off of them and onto a surface, then leaping off said surface into the enemy and slashing them in half or something.
- allow for delimbing system like ninja gaiden 2, since this setting is meant to be more brutal, also allow for finishers
- full environmental interactions, like grabbing people and ramming their faces into walls, suplexing them onto cars, slamming a car door in someone's face, picking up weapons on the ground, etc
- gunplay should be like mass effect andromeda or gears of war
-for the rpg shit like powers and stuff, adapt guild wars 1 skill system where you can customize your characters skills fully and create unique builds
There, I just fixed this game for you Paradox, now pay me.
