what do we think
>>683817784Literally soul vs soulless
>>683817784The colors in the original aren't washed like that
soulless dead eyes
>>683817784its ok but not feeling how overly chibifyed they look now.
>>683817784Looks good enough.
>>683817784it's an objective improvement and you can even choose the older, worse version if you want. the developer didn't make any of them trans and there's no conservative bashing bullshit.we like it. based
>>683817784Does he just stand like that, with no pose now?
>>683818512
>>683817784he doesn't look ready to fight anyone, the OG is squared up 24/7 ready to to rock some niggas
>>683818924dunno what this is but the new animation looks like a parody of that mario thing
>>683818924clearly a lot of effort put into a new idle animation that nobody will see because you're running for 99.9% of the gamemaybe the sprite looks better running?
open helmet gray knight with a mouth?weird
>>683817784It's perfectly fine. I've seen the original art style for 15 years so I'll happily play with the new one
>>683817784Looks fucking horrible, looks like some baby shit. I miss the angular art from the classic, new is too fucking smooth
>>683817784Could be better, could be worse.>>683818924Okay, this is definitely worse.
>>683819758>I miss the angular artIt hasn't gone anywhere retard
>>683818924>>683817784Literal soul vs soulless but it doesn't matter that much since the game literally just lets you make your own knight. Of there's no toggle for the classic knight which there probably is one then thats just going be the first steam workshop thing people do.
Out of the loop. Are they remastering Castle Crashers? Is it a Risk of Rain Returns (i.e. good) kind of remaster or is it Dead Space (i.e. bad)kind of remaster?
>>683820523but risk of rain returns wasn't goodmod support when
>>683819025
>>683820523yes but its a DLC instead of a seperate game, new look is optional
>>683820745Returns could've been good if they actually fixed what was wrong with it instead of abandoning the game the second it released. God I fucking hate Hoppo.
>>683820956This is soulful as fuck
>>683820956>*SQUISH* >*SQUISH* >*SQUISH*
>>683819887the description in the annoucement video says you can toggle on or off
all fun and dandy but now they look like shit in the select screen
>>683818924>>683819450is it still Dan doing the drawings? something looks different about it
>>683817784I had no idea this was happeningMild hype, I might be able to convince people to play it again
>>683818924fresh nigga got the gnome idle animation from wow
>>683817839You wouldn't know sovl if it raped your mother in front of you, for 16 hours.
>>683817784>weNYPA you dumb little nigger brain>zoomies taking the bait
>>683821694I think it was announced like an hour or two ago
>>683817784will they overhaul the xp system?
>>683818924>cool as fuck long curved katana>vs>stick sword
>>683817784Nigga looking fresh, nigga looking zesty, nigga plays for the other team... If you know what I mean
>>683822101see, no idea.There's noting in my steam feed about it either.God Bless 4chan.
>>683817784Hope this means we'll get more porn down the line lol lmao
>>683822407also that shield is pathetic, it's miniscule and you can barely see it, there's little sense of bulkdude isn't even using it, that idle animation is terrible, he doesn't look like a knight in battle like the one on the left
>>683820956>>683821130>>683821207It's called soulverload
>>683821563The in-game sprites are fine but these look pretty off to me. Weirdly detailed for one.
>>683817784Thanks OP for reminding me of the good time I had, played this with my friends, a long time ago. Clutched the shit out of so many situation with Sub Zero. You don't need health, if your enemys are ice cubes.
>>683822549Yeah this board is the best source of vidya news for mainstream, obscure and industry-related news, I legit can't think of an alternative
>>683817784Definitely looks worse, and the unnecessary details are going to hurt the mounts.Also the steam version is still perfectly playable online and co-op.
So is custom characters only on steam? And not console?
>>683817839the original castle crashers is pretty much mobile games level of soulless design
>>683823725seems like it, since its using steam workshop
>>683817784it was shit from the beginning.>>683817839the original is soulless shit fart haha funny bullshit
>>683817784>>683817839the original game had soulless artwork, literally commiefornian art style of its day. faggot newgrounds all became trannies and libtards. proof me wrong. oh wait, you can't.
>>683823057
Post the princesses. How do they look now
>>683824026Very much. Indeed.
>>683823830>>683823889>>683823984samefag
>>683824184
I don't mind the new designs but the new animations do look very 'modern' for no reason
>>683824308
really glad they are updating this game again, while not having made a new game in 7 years
>>683817784Nothing changed, but most refused to admit this
>>683821563I like them
>>683821342Ok, based
>>683824398they already caved in to alien slopminid 2 it seems like a low hanger to just do castle crashers 2.
>>683817784Looks like a scribblenauts characters
>>683817784Is Stamper coming back for the Battleblock QoL updates?
>>683824584hit the nail on the head
>>683824606He couldn't even come back for Hazbin, what do you think
>>683818924I don't hate it. My first impression is that I like the original style more but like the new animation. I'd have to see more to really make up my mind.>>683821926lol you're completely right
host when
>>683824584So thats why it looked overly infantile....Also for the love of god why keep making the bodies even smaller is beefy just gonna be their old selves?>>683824804Everyone from the hazbin pilot was shafted anon-kun...
>still updating pit peoplefor what purpose?
>>683825112i asked them nicely (i'm the only person on this planet who likes pit people)
>>683824956>>Everyone from the hazbin pilot was shafted>have a team that is clearly capable of making something>get rid of all of them to an other group that know nothing about iti suppose the new guys are also all from india?
>>683825305>i suppose the new guys are also all from india?Close, broadway theater kids.Vivzie is a fucking retard, whats new.
>>683824574Castle Crashers 2 would be so much better than a remake of a flash game it's not even funny.
>>683826537there is some misguided sense of pride that is stopping them from making CC2. Not wanting to be a one trick pony, even though they have proved that can make plenty of other shit too.
>>683817784>Workshop charactersHell yeah, i'll FINALLY be able to play as HIM!This has been a childhood dream of mine for the longest time, it isn't a Dad n Me sequel but i'll take having Me in castle crushers.Having an excuse to replay it is always nice.
Kinda cool. Would be way better if this was just a sequel though.
>>683826670Yeah it's weird. 15 years of people begging for a sequel and they insist that they hate to retread the same ground and want to keep doing new things. But then they end up going back to Castle Crashers with shallow updates anyway. What's the fucking point? Everyone will forget about this in a few months whereas they'd be rolling in money if they spent some time and threw together a new campaign
>>683817784Some fag is gonna say the word "soul" and-->>683817839Oh, wow, that was even faster than I thought.
This was the game that made me the most jealous of Xbox 360 owners. I really liked Alien Hominid and Dad & Me.
I don't like the way they call it DLC instead of just update but that's probably just paranoia
>>683826982you get it
>>683827317Shit then I actually read it and they want people to pay for this, better not be more than 0.99
>>683819450he cute
>>683827462oh they are gonna cash on it and they are gonna cash on it hard.
Are they gonna censor the clown dressed as a woman?
>>683821110Don't worry, I'm sure Gearbox will give Returns some love and attention, now that they bought the ip from Hopoo
>>683827654Hopefully no
>>683817784I think they should have made a fucking sequel instead
>>683828110And giving people what they want???? crazy talk anon, crazy talk....
>>683817784tedious to play with shitty music. basically the newgrounds experience. it used to be about freedom of expression but the admins turned liberal and now kids run the site. this was the last game they made that had even a little promise.
>>683817784i think the characters looked better in the old style, but the environments do look a bit more decorated in the new version so that's neat. i like that the characters animate a bit more, but i don't like that they're using it to create a 3D effect.
>>683820745>>683821110I think RORR is great. Artstyle is beautiful without losing the SOVL, a number of the alt skills are very good and fun (laser cyclone is my wife), the partial strafing on non-huntress makes the gameplay feel less sticky, mouse aiming also feels very satisfying, not having to kill every enemy on the level is welcome too. I mean, fuck me, the original didn't even have the avility to keybind to mouse buttons. Barbaric.
>>683821563They look like south park characters lmao.
>>683830807South Park rules and you drool faggot
i wonder how custom characters' magic attacks will be handled. maybe you'll just pick another character's magic to use.or maybe all custom characters just use painter jr.'s magic or something lame like that, but hopefully that's just me being pessimistic
>>683828110not making sequels has been behemoth's MO since like, day one
>>683832005>i wonder how custom characters' magic attacks will be handled. maybe you'll just pick another character's magic to use.>or maybe all custom characters just use painter jr.'s magic or something lame like that, but hopefully that's just me being pessimistictrailer said something about "picking magic" so........you can expect the worst really
why are they missing their sword handles
>>683818924
>>683832718>trailer said something about "picking magic"oh, i must've missed that.
>>683818924Sometimes better skill isnt better art, right looks better but left is animated in a more fun way
>>6838337282012 > 2011 > the rest
>>683818924still bothers me how tiny their head looks compared to the body now, they really do look cooler in classic
>>683834136>body>headOops mixed that up
>>683833728>>683820956it's uncanny
>>683818116It's a psychological trick to show how new the updated one looks
>>683817784at least they fixed their posture i guess
>>683831061Seethe, nigger.
>>683818924Left is battle ready. Wide stance, shield ready. Pose and silhouette is very squared so the hitbox is readible.It's like the classic mega man pose vs the mm11 pose. The new one is natural but doesn't read as well and feels weird in a video game
>>683818924right is cutesyleft is cool
these faggots will do literally anything other than make castle crashers 2
>>683817784It looks fine but it better be an option.
>>683833728I like that the only updates he posts are just "I completely redrew everything again" and nothing about the game
>>683818924I hate to use the overanimated meme from /a/ but...
>>683836762You can switch.
I wonder if they're gonna add some filters for the custom characters to stop people from making something like a knight with fat tits
>>683837509I hope you're ready to filter through hundreds of anime and furfag OCs with mismatching artstyles.
>>683837720it may be over and it hasnt even started
>>683837509Doubt it, it just says "please follow the steam guidelines."
>>683837967Nice, since Steam Workshop is ok with mods like Terraria's "waifu player texture pack" then there's no problem with lewd custom characters
>>683817784>>683818924You know what makes this feel off? It's the eyes. What they did with them in the new design feels off.
>>683833728ANOTHER fucking update? this shit will never come out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Teogpa2h09g
>>6838177844chan finds that there is a loss of "soul" with any change in art style no matter how minor. You know the answer already because these retards are 100% predictable.
>>683838242the chad angry stare vs the virgin bored eyes
>>683838865>minor>the eyes have a different shape entirely>the helmet is shaded differently>the shield is held less aggressivelyFuck off.
does it fix it?
>>683839497angrier
green knight gayblue knight cool
>>683838242How many Day 1 mods do you think there will be to fix this shit?
>>683838752I opened this and audibly went "Oh shit."Haven't heard this one in a long while.
>>683839645
>>683834771nigger, speak englishwhat are you saying?beyond it being intentionally misleading and not representative at all of what the original looked likewhat is the point?
>>683818924that looks absolutely terribleI am so sick of DEI hires and eternal grifters trying to justify their wage by constantly fucking with things that don't need to be fucked with
>>683840491One, what the fuck are you on with DEI you fucking magatard? and two, its fucking optional you fuck.
>>683822681forced sovl*
>>683817784worse face, worse colours. soulless just like the new alien hominid design.proportions are mostly similar but still worse.>>683821563Holy shit. they got rid of Jeffs perfect art?? fuck them.
>>683827654>clown dressed as a womanI think its a woman dressed as a clown
>>683827110you posted this two hours after his post you stupid unfunny nigger
>>683838242He looks like he's questioning his life choices instead of being angry and ready to beat up some bandit fuckers.Actual downgrade.
>>683838752https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INXC3SEo-CY
>>683842404>>683838752i would gladly, and without any second thought, strangle every fucking Geometry Dash nigger in existence if i could.These are our tunes, you fucking ipad toddlers
>>683817784>pussy crashershahaha nigga wear a dress already hahaha
>>683826982>This will finally be real
>>683817784WHY DOES EVERYTHING NEED TO BE KEKMASTERED AND RUINED???? LEAVE MY VIDYA ALONE AAAAAAAAAA
>>683838865Because theres no reason to change things that are fine you fool, make new shit for the love of God
>>683840195Now we're fucking cooking. Too bad he still holds his shield like onions now
>>683843109just toggle it off nigga
POST YOUR MAINS RIGHT NOW
>some of those achievementswtf were they thinking
>>683843914Never changed it a decade later, and not fucking going to change it now either.If we're in the lobby and you're picking orange before me i am personally burning down your house in real life.
>>683817784I can make higheffort wojak character mods and put them on steam workshop
>>683817784I have always thought that the Heavy Culter armour from EYE looked like the knights in this game, I might try making one when this releases.
>>683844272found a higher quality picture to prove my point
>>683833728the way it goes bipedal in 2012, then back to quad, then bipedal again is so funny
>>683818924ehit's not the end of the world but it looks like the body parts aren't attached to the torso
>>683821563Bro the original selection art was perfectWtf is this shit?
>>683838242from real fucking pissed off to mildly annoyedthe eyes being higher also makes them look a bit uglier imo
>>683828001Sex
>>683843914I am MAKING my mainAnd so will you.Post 'em.
now i wonderwill the new character creator use the old template or the new onehopefully boththe older one doesnt even need extra frames of animation for the idle anim, but maybe the "fresh" one's rig is built for the rest of the animations and angles and whatnot...
>>683817784>>683818924backup your copy of castle crashers now before they vandalise it in an update.
>>683817784I don't think
>>683844272Culter Dei more like Culter Gay
>>683844934I'm gonna make Spinal from Killer instinct
>>683843914
>>683845418>t. Jian Shang Di
>>683837509Oh no?
>>683846773I'm going to wear your moron face as a party mask.
just make a sequel holy shit
>Cold, blue stare goneAnyway I wonder how the fact that you can switch between both artstyles mean for the actual custom characters.Cause they both clearly have different animations and frames and perspectives.
>>683818924forced animationsoulless design0/10. slop demake.
BumpNot enough people have made fun of this yet.
was pit people any good?i completely forgot it existed
looks cool and it's a toggle and with workshop supportI played the fuck out of this on the 360 and can probably convince some people to pick this up again, thanks OP for the video game thread
>>683824308They white washed my literal black queen...
>>683843914>first playthrough with friends on 360 years ago>my friend gets red knight>just stun locks us all to death during the end fights>gets rocked by the clown at the endI miss you guys noobinator, remix, dj, and other dude who's name I forget cause you kept fucking changing it
>>6838337282014 = 2012 >>>>>>>> the rest
>>683839497It's an improvement.
>>683817784It's dogshit, at least seems that is switchable from what i have read.
>>683847614i hate how they removed the aggresive hunch from all of the characters, now they look like gay little chibis
>>683817784looks good honestly. Fits the Castle Crashers vibe. Would make for a good art style for Castle Crashers 2
>>683840335>can't grasp basic englishBased ESL retard
>>683851468This is the correct opinion
>>683841205>>683844689Can you guys post the original selection art?
>>683841048why are they animated like tiktok people
>>683817784If it's not a free update then I don't care.
>>683817784did they change artists? if it's the same dude working on it I can begrudgingly accept it but really I prefer the eye placement on the left.
>>683821563I think the character select screen is the only revamped thing that looks good desu. The art isn't terrible.
>>683854553Paid unfortunately
>>683854426
>>683855587Everything outside of the top row looks like complete shit
>>683854935does that mean the shitty new redesigns do not affect the game without the DLC?
I think I want Stamper to have never picked up a crack pipe and I want another Alien Hominid.
>>683817784What?They didn't update it Dud they?
>>683855769didn't you like the rougeshit one?
>>683855587for me it's Butthole Archer
>>683817784The enimies are way tankier than I remember when I played a decade agoWish someone would join coop
>>683841048Sudden movements
>>683842404>playing this on my PSP music player in high school before i go to bedoff-topic but i was also reminded of this song during that timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIBoVGwBVRM
>>683817784I think the transition that occurred where people who cut their teeth on flash and then carried those design sensibilities into development of normal games did overall harm to the medium.
>>683855769Sleepycast and the stories told there was the cry for help, but no one listened.
>>683855659You look like complete shit.Jeff Bandelin is one of the best vector artists of all time.
>>683817784I don't care if you redraw the knight. But he drew it in a way that lost all its character.He didn't preserve the defining attributes of the original.
>>683855989>I think the transitiondamn you guys are obsessed
>>683856534Yeah, they fucked up the knight head.he used to look like a angry skull now its a fat cross with a bored face in the middle that doesn't look badass at all
>>683842139I read his post even later and it still remained true. Interestingly I read yours and thought "wow a fucking emotional little bitch manchild" despite it happening in the past as well.
>>683855679they are toggleable anyways so it doesn't matter
>>683858151trailer doesn't say that.
>>683859062steam description does
>>683821563>YOU SHOULD
>>683843914I used Blue Knight but too many people used Blue Knight so I strangely got a gold skull with Necromancer instead while skipping the actual fight against Necromancer
>>683839497Needs a little more Brow.But it's a pretty big improvement
>>683841048Sex.
>>683833728I wonder if the creator has a hard time keeping it consistent and decides to start over instead
why are they changing this shit in the first place?just make a new castle crashers if you really want to do this shit
>>683818924>>683817784It's over for Behemoth
>>683855954Umineko is /v/ culture
>>683860427It's an opt in update.
>>683843914I fucking love fencer's designsawblades are fucking cool and always made satisfying noises
>>683817839it never had soul in the first place, zoom zoom
When was the last time Behemoth was relevant?
>>683820956how do i play this game
>>683828001ADHD as fuck goddamn
>>683861365Presumably with a controller.
>>683817784both look like newgrounds garbage. I cant believe people actually pay money for shit like this
>>683833728what mental illness is this?
>>683817784Theres a toggle to go back to the original art thankfully
>>683863206Neurotic Perfectionism
