Yeah honestly they'd have made more bank on just making an RPG or a regular action game with an OST by the bands they got into the studio desu

>Funcom expressed earlier this month that it's making some layoffs to its Dune: Awakening team as part of a restructuring as the studio goes from development to live service maintenence on the MMORPG.

Another studio making actual good games murdered in favor of GAAS-slop. Many such cases.

I will always be amused at the sheer amount of asshurt nuDoom has caused. Even in random Steam sales threads I still see people cautioning against those games.

It's a shame I actually loved this game and anyone who says they couldn't play it, says skill issue. I hoped we could get a second game in Heaven.

I was that person waiting for a sequel
>>
>>722610875
Is the OG game good? It’s got raving reviews on Steam and the idea of a heavy metal rhythm shooter is insanely fucking based.
>>
>>722610615
Yeah but unlike BPM it wasn't orange all the time and had more than one song
>>
>>722611017
I didn't like it as much as Bullets Per Minute but it's pretty solid

that stupid guttural growl talking that fags think sounds cool but actually just sounds retarded
>>
>>722610615
They were both ripping off third game that started as twitter post that blew up in popularity but by the time dev finally released his game everyone had their fill with BPM and MHS
I can't even remember the name of original game.

>>722611302
Yeah, that's the one. And that original post of a concept had aesthethics very similar to Superhot, not this borderlands-like cringe it ended up to be.
>>
>>722607038
I really liked this game.
>>
I suck at this game so I'm ok with this.
>>
I ended up never finishing this game cause it got a bit too tough for me, but I enjoyed it. Never even got to the Serj song.

the epic girlboss has literally 0 lines
the main antagonist is a whiny hag
this game is lesbian sex but incels just mald at the "woman protagonist" moment even if it's a mute demon with tits
hating on what is the vidya version of purgatori is extremely homosexual

I bought this because I liked the idea, but it wouldn't run, so I refunded it, then pirated it, and the pirated version worked perfectly.

>another rhythmslop with generic buttrock songs that kill its studio
Kek, this and that flopped wokeshit hi-fi rush were fucking shit, you have to be a low iq redditor to like these shit rhythm games.
>>
>>722613298
>buttrock
there it is again. Why are homosexuals so obsessed with metal and rock music?
>>
Honestly I wish the game was even more metal, like the old album covers, it still feels too gamey in aesthetic. Though, I don't think something like that could be done without 2D graphics.

FPS games are only good if they are multiplayer and PvP. Single player FPS games are glorified puzzle games.
>>
>>722613150
This is pretty mid

If thats the best track then i guess they shouldve picked better music and hire Eluveitie or something
>>
>>722611156
I'm sorry you'll have to be more descriptive as metal has perhaps some of the most complex compositions in modern music underlying the growls. Do you mean hardcore, or grind? Do you even mean core at all, or are you talking power? Ever heard of Scum, or Crust? God forbid I hit you with some Bluegrass metal.
>>
>>722613115
And since when lesbian sex is a good thing? Are you transbian, perchance?
Worshipping females, and hating males is a reddit trait.
>>
>>722613117
So you mean they knew how to entice me yet didn't? Seems foolish considering the studio is dead now.
>>
>>722613115
>the epic girlboss has literally 0 lines
Instead it's the narrator endlessly glazing her with his shitty forced Southern accent. It's all poorly written and terribly repetitive.
>>
I don't even know a single good game Funcom has put out other than this. Did they really shut down a successful studio just to focus on licensed slop? That's fucking sad.
>>
>>722613435

>>722613597
so is it the girlboss or the narrator? stop moving the goalpost and stop taking obvious parody tongue in cheek games so fucking seriously
>>
These combinations of rhythm + random vidya genre are never good. Hi-Fi Rush had forgettable music. Not a single good melody in the entire OST. /v/ermins who know nothing about music theory may be impressed by it but not me.
>>
metal hellsinger was insanely fun, more games need to bring rhythm elements into them. i get far more immersed in a game when i am focusing everything on the game, trying to get internal rhythms to match up with the game's. it also shows a commitment from the devs to actually unify all aspects of the game instead of a bunch of separate departments trying to contribute without a cohesive vision.
>>
BPM was better

Necrodancer is one of the best roguelikes ever though.

>>
So who keeps the rights to the IP? Funcom or the studio?
>>
>>722607038
For a game called Metal it had too much metalcore on the soundtrack and not enough, you know, metal.
>>
>>722613998
do you seriously think the answer can be anything other than Funcom?
>>
>>722614092
Wishful thinking, I guess. What a waste it would be for this IP to just die like this.

nta, but i fucking hate jacob collier. peak pseud.

Sad, I loved this. I asked for a horde/survival mode in a feedback form and they added one what felt like just a couple of months later which was based
>>
>>722614336
many better IPs died way worse deaths
don't be sad it's over, be happy it happened
best case scenario it gets graciously shelved and forgotten before some chink comes and rapes its corpse

And nothing of value was lost. Painkiller reboot is releasing this month anyways.

>>722614356
That's why i posted him kek

I bought this game years ago and beat it in a day, I really liked it and the soundtrack was decent.
The SOAD song was really weird and out of place though, there's a hundred bands that would have had a better final boss theme.

>See BPM
>Decide you can do that but take advantage of your ties to "real" metal bands to sell the music
>Make no effort to actually build the game around rhythm elements at all and ensure all of the OST sounds identical just at slightly different speeds
Dogshit. BPM was clearly designed around the rhythm shooting first and then put in some well-crafted music that actually suits the levels and has proper progression and phasing. Production value will never outdo passion and attention to detail.
>>
>>722615323
Yeah, the song with Serj isn't bad but there are much better tracks in the game

>Retard confusing melodeath with metalcore
Coreshitters stole from melodic death, infused it with punk and made everyone think it was emo shit in the 2000s instead of horror movie style shit like old school regular ass 90s death metal played with more melody.
>>
>>722607038
That's so sad, Alexa play Into Asgard.

>>722615663
Sounds like metalcore to me, buddy. Maybe you should stop living in denial?

It’s over…

Kinda sad, I liked the game and the demon lady gave me a boner
