So what's the problem? The gameplay. I got to try some of the demo being made showcasing the combat, and it's appalling. It's supposed to be an action game, yet there's no launchers, no juggling, no midair combos. The most I saw were some kind of pursuit moves that allowed you to go after someone you knocked away. But that's it. I told the team that this was a huge problem, and that they NEED to make the gameplay like Devil May Cry 5, with launcher, juggles, etc. They refused, saying "We don't want our game to play that way" and 'It's meant to be somewhat more realistic and not an anime". So they basically told me they don't want to emulate a game with the greatest combat system ever made in the history of gaming itself, because "we don't want our game full of supernatural unrealistic shit to be like an anime".
I can't believe I am on a team working with people like this, holy fucking shit.
Realistic combat isn't fun, it's boring as shit, and there's a reason games like DMC 5 sold stupidly well while shit like Mordhau and Vermintide doesn't sell at all.

Please don't use a TSW pic for your shitty copypasta; it reminds me how much it was a wasted potential of an mmo

But they are right. DMC5 doesn't have the SUPERIOR

All that fucking text to waste my time with your shit tier taste DMCfag. God damn it.
You don't need launcher or juggles to make an action game, if you actually played other games besides DMC you would know.
>purposely make a game not play like an amazing game because you have some silly idea of realism in a game with fucking vampires and demons and other unrealistic shit

>play action game >get game with bare minimum action Can't believe people actually like "realistic action" or whatever the fuck they call bland punching. They must eat toast sandwiches regularly.
