Astral chain

>EXP
>Level up grid

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand interest is gone.

I play games to explore interesting concepts and challenges in all kinds of creative fashions, not play the same thing over and over to unlock hamfisted gates so I can "Live in the game world longer"

Fuck this escapist time-abusing predatory trite.

Sounds like Bloodborne.

Exactly.

what? user, you don't gain exp, you gain "money" to buy and upgrade skills.

Are you from a third world country?

Yes, but that is a screenshot of the japanese eshop page.

Except the PS4 is the more popular platform so it gets almost every game released and doesn't need to cling so desperately on a single title.
But, you are now wrong. Except for the above, is pretty much the same situation as Bloodborne.

Can I use that skill tree to unlock a fucking jump button?

I swear every game he designs combat for, Taura comes up with a new and exciting way to fucking disappoint me. Truly the worst creative mind at Plat. I'd take fucking Shirahama over this hack.

This shit looks trash.

It would be much better if it was running on PlayStation 4.

I know it is, I was just asking because of your grammar.

Fuck off jumpfag, annoying little shit.

Im ready!

Why are you even defending this trash? If you really want to shitpost about a Platinum exclusive on a Ninty console, wait for Bayo 3, that's going to be a fucking salt mine.

Bloodborne was pretty much the only reason to buy a PS4 until 2017.

Demo when?

Have you ever played an action game where you didn't buy skills in a shop? I mean, literally every action game I can think of features this mechanic, except for exactly ONE. What a stupid thing to bitch about.

>why you defend...
>if you want to shitpost...
You just said two completely opposite situations.

you're pretending the game looks like god's gift to action games for no reason other than you want an exclusive to shitfling about. If this game was released across all consoles it'd already be forgotten and you damn well know it.

Who was this guy again? I feel he was from a classic Cartoon Network Cartoon.

Why are you so defensive? I looked at the picture you posted and I'm glad it's getting good sales. I was just curious if you were a third worlder because you continue to use incorrect grammar. You already confirmed my suspicions anyways, so it's not a big deal.

All Platinum games do this.

You think i am Eric? I only want a thread about Astral Chain. I don't give a fuck about your shitty console wars.

Only between console war autists.
The average Joe went with the PS4 because it was the console with games. PC has always been a niche platform and both the WiiU and the Xbox One are jokes.

It still is.

IDK who all these (discord?) tripfags are. I just hate that the game doesn't let you jump. It removes a fucking dimension, literally, from combat and movement. I can count on my fingers the number of action-adventure games without a jump button that didn't make me want to kill someone, and most of them start with "The Legend of Zelda"

You sound like a whiny little white girl

You can "stand jump".

>he doesn’t know

>Song with both male and female vocals.
I fucking love that shit.

That doesn't improve the situation and you know it. Using a special skill for limited vertical navigation does not an engaging combat or movement system make.

>special skill
God you’re stupid

You have to set up a slingshot leap to pull it off, don't act like it's comparable to pressing a button to jump off the ground.

Honestly why am I even explaining this shit. Enjoy your shallow game, Taura's track record is dogshit and so far AC has done nothing to assuage fears that this will be a repeat of his past mistakes.

already ordered, feels good man

It is comparable retard. And you’ve done more than enough to explain that you know nothing

Astral Chain will do "Ok" in sales, it doesn't have the oompf that uhyeahuh, that ching chinka wow wow that banazz. ya know?

Like I said, enjoy your game. I'll be waiting for Bayonetta 3 and Babylon's Fall, the two games I know for sure Taura didn't poison with his incompetence.

>30 fps
Jesus, SUCH A WASTE.

Pink haired girl is cute thou.

Enjoy your simple life, retard

>You have to set up a slingshot leap to pull it off, don't act like it's comparable to pressing a button to jump off the ground.
That's some concentrated autism right there. Chain jump does the exact same thing as jumping, but using the core mechanic that is legions instead. When fighting most of the time your legion is right next to the enemy so you can quickly jump to them, no special setup. Even if you are far from the enemy the legion can quickly travel to it. How it makes the game more shallow according to you is beyond me. If anything it adds more complexity.

>you have to set up a slingshot leap
??? It just pulls you to wherever it is

I'll be smiling my smug smile when the game comes out. Taura has ruined the core combat systems of two games that were otherwise saved by competent overall direction (MGR and Automata) and without the oversight of a more seasoned director I know what he'll create.

He has no mind for balance at all. He doesn't understand how to think about game systems holistically, he doesn't know how to imagine the ways a player can and can't break his "intention". The lack of a jump button speaks to that same level of arrogance, that same obsession with believing that all players are going to play the game the way he intends and nobody is creative enough to attempt to break the mold.

The game will be full of game-breaking balance problems and obvious exploits, and it will be impossible to develop any kind of high-level meta because of the poor balance choices. Screencap this post.

>like 4 seconds of windup just to get airborne
>can only do it when an enemy is already airborne
>can only do it when your weapon-monster is airborne
I can already imagine the combo possibilities.

Come on.

>So many people bitching about not being able to play the game

Just buy a Switch you faggots.
It's the only platform worth owning right now. Just look at you, so bored with your platforms' current library you crave Nintendo games.

I’m not reading this shit you dumb fag, it’s just more worthless assumptions

Call it "educated guesses". Unlike you I am familiar with the work of most of the staff at P* because I'm a cock-hungry fan-faggot and I love their work. I know who shines and I know who stumbles.

Taura stumbles. Taura is a drag on whatever team he's a part of. The best thing about Astral Chain is the knowledge that Taura is nowhere near the other two games they have coming out soon. Here's hoping Saito is directing Babylon's Fall (and Kamiya is directing Bayo 3, though I doubt it)

If Babylon's Fall comes out it will be mediocre as fuck.
Platinum only works seriously when their games are Nintendo exclusives.

And...

None of their best games are Ninty exclusives save one (TW101). Everything else they've made exclusive to a Nintendo console has ranged from mediocre (MadWorld) to hot shit (Bayo 2, Infinite Space, Star Fox Zero).

Your posts are so whiny and depthless

nope. cuz you can't jump

Rank your favorite Plat directors from best to worst.

...and?
>it’s shit if it doesn’t line up with my basic bitch idea of what a good action game is

Oh, I thought you were making a "come on and jump" joke.

If you're talking about Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising and Vanquish, those were games they made to earn money (they were a newborn company after all) until they attracted Nintendo's attention. When they finally got it with Bayo, they dropped the mask and started using non-Nintendo exclusive games to earn fast cash while working on their Nintendo games, their actual passion projects.

Regardless of your own opinion about their post Nintendo allegiance output, those are the games they wanted to make. Not Korra, not Turtles, not Scalebound, not Nier (that ended being a happy accident thanks to Yoko Taro and 2B's ass).

And then they were so thrilled with their Ninty partnership that they took Kamiya off Bayo 2, and let the fucking art director run the show, causing him to shit the bed and ruin the game, then did mercenary work on a Star Fox game everyone hated, while giving their best titles in that time period (Transformers Devastation and Nier Automata) to every platform EXCEPT Nintendo.

I do love this core concept for a shitpost, it's a great framework, but like I said, I'm a cock-hungry fan-faggot. I know their work and I know what is and isn't good about it. The only truly good title that even saw the light of day on a Ninty system (notwithstanding a way-late port of Bayo 1) was TW101, and that was only good because Kamiya is Kamiya. And it was a commercial flop anyway.

This is a lost or lost situation, if the game flops, the shitposters will gloat forever, if is a success, the shitposters will go eric.

>Allowing the shitposters to sour your experience with a game.
Wanna know what I did when Resident Evil 2 Remake released?
I played it. I played it and never bothered to discuss it here. When I wasn't playing it (or playing any other games) and I was browsing this site, I couldn't look at the catalog without seeing RE2R threads opening with inflammatory statements. I just laugh, shook my head and then entered on a thread about something else I wanted to discuss about.

You should do the same with Astral Chain. Just play the game and pretend Yea Forums doesn't exist for it. Browse threads about other games, browse other boards. Don't be part of others' personal hell. After all, discussing a game is fun but not really important.

Looks like shit, didn't expect anything less from nuPlatinum.

I've never played a Bayonetta game, but I've heard nothing but praise from Bayonetta 2 so you're wrong.
Same with Automata, a game I did play. I found it very mediocre from a gameplay standpoint; a far cry from Metal Gear Rising.

That said, I'm not shitposting. I genuinely believe my words because I've arrived to the conclusion that I'm right. Babylon's Fall (if it comes out) will prove my point.

>causing him to shit the bed and ruin the game
Bayo 2 is a good game. Don't post that big list of faults that everyone always posts, I've had to do a point-by-point counterargument against it so many times it makes me sick.

Learn to play the game and half the shit people complain about goes away. Like people always complain about Lumen Sage fights and how he's """""invincible""""" if you're not in WT, but that's not even remotely true. If you're using Love is Blue, you can hit him with the bullets from your charge modifier while you're Dodge Offsetting to get to the stronger part of your combo. I deal like 10-20% of a health bar to LS between WTs just shooting him.

>like 4 seconds of windup just to get airborne
Because dashing over to a far away enemy and double jumping is so much faster right? And that webm only took like 2 seconds to summon, send, and jump to reach the enemy (which was very high up).

>can only do it when an enemy is already airborne
>can only do it when your weapon-monster is airborne
Check the first jump in this webm. That's ground level.
Doesn't matter what anyone says though, you just complain about something else whenever someone points out you are wrong. You only want to shit post and call the game shallow without having played the game or even bothering to do any critical thinking on what we've been shown so far.

>no steel case
Thank fuck for that, I may consider purchasing this.

Testing.

I actually kind of like the lack of a jump button.
Actually, I wish there was a 'jump' button, but it was like an actual real life jump and it looked absolutely pathetic and did nothing.
You're a normal human, you don't have demon powers or witch powers. That you have to use the Legion to do all the cool shit is one of the things I'm loving. You're just a normal human with a pet that you use to fight evil. The Legion is the real star of the show.

>You are a normal human.
Is damn obvious that the twins aren't normal...

Looks pretty bland

the boogie man from the power puff girls

Is me or Yea Forums is extremely slow right now?

No, we're idiots 24/7

Sadpanda crisis. Lots of people in the /h/ thread or making backups.
